Under Fenghao's rescue, the remaining two people who were enveloped by the black light cocoon were also rescued. However, their situation was very bad because Wuxue and the others were trapped. All of their vitality had been absorbed. If Fenghao had not sensed it in time and the power of the Spiritual Pearl had kept them alive, even if the Master of Calligrapher had come, he would not have been able to do anything.
"Feng Hao, how are they?" Wuliang had already recovered a lot, but he still looked shaky as he walked, as if a gust of wind could blow him over.
"Very bad. I can only stabilize their last bit of life force. If I want to save them, it will take a very long time and a lot of medicinal herbs." Fenghao frowned. Wuxue was slightly better, but the other two were in a bad situation. Even with the power of the Spiritual Bead, they could only restore some of their vitality. But if this dragged on, sooner or later, they would also end up dying.
Hearing this, despair surfaced on Wuliang's pale face. Fenghao's intention was to bring them back to the academy. Only with the help of eldest senior brother, would they be able to protect their lives. Otherwise …
"What are the creatures around here?" Feng Hao glanced at the creatures that were constantly being killed by Lei Long. Curiosity rose in his heart. It seemed that his actions just now had ruined their plans.
"They are just a group of minions. The real monster has not appeared yet," Wuxue said weakly.
"Luoluo, you know these creatures." Wuliang looked at Wuxue in shock. No one knew which space the spatial node was connected to, and there would be strange creatures in every space.
"Yes, I have seen it in the records of the academy. These things appeared once tens of thousands of years ago." Wuxue's voice gradually weakened. Her current state was very bad.
Seeing this, Feng Hao hurriedly placed his palm between her eyebrows, and the endless energy of the Spirit Bead flowed out. This continued for a while, and Wuxue's complexion became much better.
"They are the Darkness Heart Devourer Clan. Those short unknown creatures are their guards, and the real Darkness Heart Devourer Clan is hidden in the darkness. It can even be said that the darkness is their main body." Wuxue said what she knew.
"If that's the case, why didn't the Darkness Heart Devourer Race show up and attack?" Feng Hao asked, puzzled. He glanced at the unknown creatures around him. Although they were difficult to deal with, they were not difficult to deal with.
"The Dark Heart Devourer Clan is a very strange race. They don't have a fixed form. It can be said that they are similar to souls. They absorb the life force of other creatures to make themselves stronger, and those who have their life force devoured will become their guards, like puppets."
Feng Hao was startled when he heard this. His heart sunk. Immediately, an invisible Spiritual Strength spread out. Although it was still being suppressed, he was unable to sense any ripples.
"It's useless. This darkness is the Darkness Heart Devouring Clan. You can't sense it." Wuxue continued slowly, "We were attacked by them before, and then the Dark Heart Devouring Clan absorbed our vitality."
"Is there no way to deal with them?" Feng Hao's expression turned grave. He looked at the guards that were continuously appearing around him. It was likely that he would not be able to kill them all even if they just stood there and let him kill them.
"These creatures have appeared in the True Martial Continent before. I remember that there are ways to deal with them in the books. As long as we return and gather everyone's strength, we will be able to force the Darkness Heart Devouring Clan to retreat."
"Are these things so terrifying?" Wuliang frowned. "They should not be able to leave the swamp."
"I've read in the books that their appearance a long time ago nearly led to the destruction of the True Martial Continent." Wuxue hurriedly said, "We must not underestimate this matter. We must return to the academy as soon as possible and tell eldest senior brother."
Fenghao sank into silence. Right now, they had all sunk into this boundless darkness. Even if he wanted to leave, there would be a certain degree of difficulty, let alone bringing along these injured people.
The atmosphere suddenly became quiet. After a while, Wuxue slowly opened his mouth and said, "Wuliang, leave this place with him. As long as you return to the academy and tell eldest senior brother, there will be a way to resolve this."
"No, I will definitely not abandon you." Wuliang became anxious when he heard this. How could he do such a thing?
"Listen to me. This matter is not only related to our academy, but also to everyone in the True Martial Continent. If we all die here, and these Dark Heart Devourers appear in the outside world, many people will lose their lives." A smile appeared on Wu Xue's pale face.
"So what? I will definitely not abandon you." Wuliang shook his head. Finally, his gaze fell on Feng Hao's body as he calmly said, "Feng Hao, I believe that you have the ability to leave this place by yourself. You will not be able to bring us along. I hope that you can return to the academy and tell eldest senior brother everything that has happened here."
"What about you?" Feng Hao muttered.
"The academy does not have the habit of abandoning its companions." Wuliang smiled and looked at Wuxue. A rare gentle expression appeared on his face as he said, "If we can die together, it will not be a bad thing."
"Shut up." Wuxue sighed in his heart when he saw Wuliang's expression. Everyone in the academy knew that Wuliang had feelings for her, but no one dared to say it out of shame.
"Senior Feng." Wuxue fiercely glared at Wuliang. Soon after, he said to Feng Hao, "Bring Wuliang along. The academy cannot lose too many experts at once."
"If you don't go, I won't go either," Wuliang anxiously said.
"You idiot."
Feng Hao unknowingly smiled as he watched the two of them quarrel. These two were interested in each other, but they did not say it out loud. Now that they were on the verge of death, neither of them wanted the other to die. Even if they were to die, they would die together.
"Alright, stop arguing, you two. I didn't say that I won't take you with me." Fenghao shook his head and smiled bitterly. He hadn't even said anything yet, but the two of them had already said everything.
"Ah, you want to bring us along?"
"Feng Hao, go by yourself. Don't worry about us."
Wuxue and Wuliang both stopped and cast a strange look at Fenghao. They didn't understand what he meant by that.
