At that time, the team captain, Croy Captain, who is still visited by Violet every year to this day, immediately sent a distress signal to the guild headquarters.
But the moment the undead appeared, death had already arrived.
Faced with the undead, so-called union elites couldn’t even muster a defense!
And the two souls, in fact, didn’t do anything.
They stood there, their bellies gaping like black holes!
And then, their stomachs, a powerful suction force like a hurricane appeared!
Inside the ranks, many were powerless to resist, being dragged forcibly towards its belly.
“Pfft!”
The person who was pulled into the abdomen let out a sound like a watermelon being crushed, spraying a large amount of blood.
Violet stood at the back of the line, clutching tightly to the trunk of a tree, barely managing to keep from being pulled in.
But she could see, one after another, her comrades screamed in agony and were then sucked into the undead’s belly with a ‘poof’, blood splattering, the screams abruptly silenced.
This scene, this is the source of her nightmares.
Run!
At this moment, Croi noticed Violet and shouted.
Normally, Croi is very kind to Violet, just like a brother. She takes care of Violet in every way.
And this time, facing danger, his first thought was still of Violet.
He gritted his teeth and charged towards Violet.
And then, he grabbed Violet’s arm and ran as hard as he could.
Croi is the strongest person in the guild. Only he can withstand the two powerful suction forces with his bare hands.
And so, Kroi forcibly took Violet and ran a distance of twenty or thirty meters.
But at this time, the teammates behind him had already been slaughtered by the two undead.
One of the undead sensed Kroi and Violet fleeing.
But it seemed to have eaten its fill, it didn’t choose to pursue, instead it opened its pitch-black maw, spewing a glob of darkness.
Violet just turned around and saw this.
The speed at which this mass of black sludge was approaching far exceeded Croi and Violet’s running speed.
“Pfft!”
Two seconds later, the blob of black goo slapped onto Croy’s nape.
In an instant, Croy’s body instantly stiffened.
Lilac turned her head, and saw Kroy’s entire skull beginning to melt…like ice cream in the heat, melting rapidly.
At this moment, Violet saw Kroy’s terrified eyes, his face melted down to half its original form.
Overwhelmed by a surge of terror, Violet nearly fainted.
But her instinct to survive kept her running, pushing forward with gritted teeth!
She ran for what felt like an eternity, and when she finally turned back, she found herself outside the forest.
This memory, even after many years, still makes Violet’s heart race when she thinks about it again.
Even many times, she would wake up in the middle of the night because of this nightmare.
And the tragedy that occurred in the forest caused a great stir at the time.
Forces from all across the Western Regions have once again united, launching a campaign to eradicate the Necromancer race throughout the entire region.
Since that extermination, Violet had never seen or heard from the Undead again.
…Throughout the entire Western Regions, although it was never officially announced, everyone in their hearts believed that the Dead Spirit Clan had been exterminated and would never appear again.
Violet never expected to see the presence of the Death Spirit Clan again on a day like this!
This instantly triggered her memories and exposed her most vulnerable side to the eyes of outsiders.
After sharing this memory, Violet realized she had revealed too much. Her expression turned cold.
“Are you sure the figure in the recording is a member of the Death Spirit Clan?” Fang Yu asked.
“According to your description, the specters look like ghosts and demons… But in the video, the figure beside Gary looks more like a human, just a bit bigger.” Fang Yu said again.
“Bang!”
Violet slammed her hand down on the keyboard, stood up, and said coldly, “I believe in my own judgment. As for what you think, it’s none of my concern.”
“Don’t rush, keep watching. Just consider this figure as a death spirit… see how it absorbs all eight spiritual meridians at the same time.” Fang Yu said, “I absolutely don’t believe that such a death spirit can absorb so much high-intensity spiritual energy in an instant!”
In the scene, Gary and the figure resembling a death spirit walk forward. Wherever they go, anyone they encounter is sucked into their bellies and slaughtered.
Soon, they arrived before the Eight Spirit Meridians.
At this time, the eight spirit meridians in the monitor footage were still glowing brightly blue.
Fang Yu was very clear, this meant the spiritual energy in the spirit veins was still abundant!
“Let me see how you did that…” Fang Yu squinted, staring intently at the monitor.
In the scene, Gary said something to the figure beside him, then backed away, exiting thirty meters.
And that figure stood still.
Because it was facing away from the security cameras, we didn’t know what it was doing.
The next second, the content on the screen caused Fang Yu’s expression to change.
As if by magic, the mouths at the heads of all eight spirit veins opened simultaneously!
Then, the high-intensity spiritual energy surging from the spirit veins poured into the figure’s abdomen!
Just like tributaries flow into a major river.
The eight spiritual veins’ high-intensity spiritual energy was just absorbed into that figure’s body!
“This…”
Fang Yu’s eyes widened in astonishment beyond measure.
In his understanding, such creatures did not exist in the world.
Yet the facts before his eyes told him that what he had thought was wrong.
The world is vast and full of wonders.
Even though Fang Yu had lived for nearly five thousand years, he was still unable to know everything.
For example, the creature before him, which seemed to be a death spirit, shattered Fang Yu’s preconceptions. In just a few minutes, it absorbed all the spiritual energy within his eight spirit meridians!
Even for a powerful cultivator at the peak of the tribulation period, it’s impossible to do what’s being done here.
“What on earth is this thing made of? How can it possibly hold so much spiritual energy? Eight spirit meridians!”” Fang Yu was both shocked and heartbroken.
In his view, absorbing the spiritual veins in this way was akin to swallowing a whole date without chewing.
The high-intensity spiritual energy within the meridians needs to be slowly refined before it can be transformed into spiritual energy that can truly enhance cultivation.
And in the picture, that creature absorbed eight spirit meridians in just a few minutes…
A real waste! What a waste!
“Even if it could be absorbed into the body, it definitely wouldn’t be able to be refined in a short period of time! I can guarantee that one hundred percent!” Fang Yu thought.
Lilac pressed fast-forward, and on the display screen, the eight spiritual meridians were consumed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
From originally radiating a brilliant blue light, to its glow fading until it vanished completely…
This process took a total of five minutes and forty-two seconds.
After absorbing the eight spiritual meridians, the figure left this place with Gary.
After watching the video content, Violet turned and walked out.
“Where are you going?” Fang Yu asked.
“Return to base and gather intel,” Violet said coldly, without slowing her pace.
“Don’t you want the marks on your body removed?” Fang Yu asked.
Upon hearing this, Violet stopped her steps and turned around to face Fang Yu.
She swept her violet hair back from her forehead, gazing straight at Fang Yu without uttering a word.
To be honest, I’m still hesitant to release you. I believe this place is the source of Kali’s power core, but the problem is…after arriving here, there’s nothing left. Fang Yu spread his hands and said.
Violet’s face was icy cold. She turned away and walked out again.
“But the spiritual meridian was absorbed by someone else first. This isn’t your fault…” Fang Yu said.
Violet stopped again, but this time, she didn’t look back.
She gritted her teeth, forcing down the anger welling up inside her.
If Fang Yu dared to tease her again, she would go all out and unleash the anger in her heart with everything she had!
“You’re probably angry now, thinking I’m toying with you, but there’s a hint of anticipation in your heart,” Fang Yu said.
“Enough!” Violet turned around, her aura surging, her eyes filled with murderous intent.
“Actually, I’ve already lifted the mark from you.” Fang Yu said calmly at this time.
Violet was taken aback and immediately turned her inner gaze inward.
