In the middle of the night, deep in the underground plaza of the giant ruin, the blood mist that was seeping out from the gap of the red wooden box was getting thicker.
The golden sigils on the box were spinning crazily, but they could not stop the blood mist from spreading.
After lying dormant for half a month, the mysterious creature in the box was struggling crazily on the night that was only two days away from the blood sacrifice. The red wooden box was caught off guard by the crazy struggle of the mysterious creature.
As the mahogany box shook violently, the blood mist finally escaped and condensed into a human arm in the void. It was the left hand of a man. The muscles on it were so strong that one could even see the bulging green veins.
After the arm took shape, it automatically released more blood mist, once again condensing into a misty humanoid figure.
A few golden chains shot out and wrapped around the limbs of the human silhouette. Before the fifth chain could wrap around its neck, the human silhouette suddenly exerted his strength and broke free from the four chains. In a flash, he appeared above the giant ruin.
As he floated in the air, the human silhouette lifted his head and looked at the red and purple crescent moons in the sky.
He then opened his mouth and countless monsters that were looking for food on the ground turned into blood mist and flew towards the direction of the human silhouette.
That night, all the monsters that were looking for food in the ruins were killed. Many of the monsters did not understand why the blood sacrifice would start two days earlier.
After spending nearly half an hour devouring all the monsters on the ground of the ruins, the misty figure suddenly stood still in the same place. A while later, he lifted his head all of a sudden and looked over 3,000 kilometers away in the direction of the medium-sized ruins where Lin Huang and the rest had been hiding half a month ago.
"Ruin … Key …"
With a roar, the figure in the blood mist suddenly disappeared.
…
Early in the morning, after washing up, Lin Huang and the rest chatted while having breakfast.
"Lin Huang, have you decided on the ruins that we're going to?" Yi Yeyu asked while drinking her juice.
"I've decided on the itinerary last night," Lin Huang nodded. "We're leaving tomorrow so I've booked a full schedule today. Let's see if we can clear the three mid-sized ruins today. If we really don't have enough time, I can help with the third ruin. "
"If I want to farm three, I'll have to squeeze out my lunch break." Li Lang clearly wanted to slack off.
"We're going out tomorrow. Let's farm one more today." Yi Zheng agreed. "Now that our combat strength has increased, it's possible for us to explore three ruins in a day if we take our lunch break."
"Let's try." Leng Yuexin nodded calmly.
After breakfast, a group of people rushed out from the entrance of the ruins.
Seeing the rising sun, Lin Huang and the others finally felt at ease again.
"After staying in the ruins for a month, I think the sun is the thing that gives me the most sense of security," Leng Yuexin said with a smile as she lifted her head to look at the sun in the sky.
"I've been staying in the ruins for a month. I don't feel anything but my body stinks. The first thing I want to do when I get back is to take a bath!" Yi Yeyu smiled.
"I'm not only going to take a shower, but I'm also going to soak in a bath!" After a month, Li Lang's slight obsession with cleanliness had disappeared.
Yi Zheng smiled but did not say anything.
"If we continue to daydream here, we won't be able to finish two ruins today." Lin Huang smirked and destroyed their beautiful fantasy. "Let's get to work!"
"Lin Huang, if you're going to do business, you must be a black-hearted boss who embezzles your employees!" Li Lang immediately condemned him.
Yi Yeyu and Leng Yuexin chided him for a while before they stopped.
The group of people followed Lin Huang and headed towards their destination in the north.
Lin Huang recalled Bai and the five of them followed Lancelot. Just when they were less than 300 kilometers away from their destination, Lin Huang frowned all of a sudden. He saw a cloud of red mist not far away from them, blocking their way.
"What's that?!" Yi Zheng and the rest soon noticed something strange.
Right at that moment, a memory flashed in Lin Huang's head.
In the memory, a human figure that looked like a cloud of red mist floated in mid-air. It looked like it was looking at the sky with its mouth wide open. All the monsters on the ground, whether they were dead or alive, turned into clouds of blood mist and were swallowed by the bloody figure.
This scene seemed to have originated from the Eclipse Boa's memory from hundreds of years ago. From the content of the memory, it almost became a blood meal. Fortunately, he was very close to the ruins. The moment he discovered the abnormality, he dug into the ground and escaped the disaster.
"Run!"
Lin Huang's pupils shrunk as soon as the memory flashed in his mind. He roughly knew what the bloody figure was and immediately sent a voice transmission to the rest.
As he sent the voice transmission, he summoned his dimensional relic without hesitation and dragged the few of them into the dimensional relic.
The moment the dimensional relic closed, Lin Huang saw that the cloud of red mist had formed a human figure.
In the next second, Lin Huang and the rest returned to the third underground floor of the ruins that they had departed from in the morning.
"What happened?" Yi Zheng frowned and asked.
"I don't have time to explain now!" Lin Huang summoned his dimensional relic again and repositioned himself at a ruin that was tens of thousands of kilometers away. He then urged the few of them to enter. "I don't think it's safe here. We have to leave immediately!"
Seeing that Lin Huang did not look like he was joking, the few of them did as they were told.
Just as they stepped into the dimensional relic and left, the bloody figure appeared above the entrance of the ruins.
The blood-shrouded figure had already appeared above the entrance of the ruins where they had just been hiding. With a sway of his body, he entered the ruins. The aura that was originally blocked by the ruins reappeared. In a flash, he appeared on the third underground floor. Unfortunately, he missed again.
Looking at the direction where Lin Huang and the rest disappeared, the bloody figure mumbled again, "The ruins key …"
In an underground ruin that was tens of thousands of kilometers away, Lin Huang and the rest stepped out of the dimensional relic.
"Can you tell us what happened now?" Yi Yeyu thought that Lin Huang's behavior was ridiculous.
"You dragged us away because of the bloody mist, right? What was that bloody mist? "Leng Yuexin could roughly guess the reason why Lin Huang dragged them away.
"If I'm not mistaken, the bloody mist should be the mysterious existence that's fighting with the three demigod remains for blood in the ruins," Lin Huang said and told them what he had seen in his mind.
Yi Zheng and the rest had a drastic change of expression.
"How's that possible?! Isn't the blood sacrifice tomorrow night? Why did he run out today, and in broad daylight? "Li Lang raised his doubts.
