C997 Puppet
Dong... Dong... Dong...
A low thumping sound slowly rang out. When the golden sphere's body expanded to a certain limit, it suddenly stopped. For a moment, the entire underwater world fell into a strange silence. Everyone stared nervously at the golden sphere.
"It should be about time, right?" Chu Kuangsheng clenched his fist tightly. Sweat was dripping down from his palm.
If he said that he wasn't nervous or afraid, even he wouldn't believe it. However, he couldn't leave today to see what kind of treasure he wanted to obtain, and what would happen next.
Dong...
The golden ball that had been silent for a long time suddenly jumped again. In an instant, everyone's hearts started beating violently. Heavy breathing sounds rang out in this deathly silent space, causing the pressure to become even heavier.
Everyone's expressions were grave, and their expressions were constantly changing. There was an indescribable nervousness and anticipation in their hearts.
What exactly was being nurtured within this golden sphere?
Chu Kuangsheng's expression was nervous. At a certain moment, his pupils suddenly shrank as he stared at the golden sphere, and a look of shock appeared on his face.
Bang!
Without any signs or signs of cracks spreading, the golden sphere exploded with a loud bang. Thousands of golden lights soared into the sky, as if piercing through the void and disappearing into the boundless darkness.
"There's something!"
A cry suddenly sounded in the sky. Soon after, everyone watched in horror as rolling golden light swept out from the spot where the golden ball had exploded. A thousand feet large golden figure slowly stood up from within.
This figure was wearing a golden armor and a stomach. His head was staring at a golden helmet. His face was covered by a golden glow, causing one to be unable to see his face clearly. However, the frightening aura that spread from within his body had reached a relatively frightening level.
This unknown thing definitely possessed the strength of the three stages of Crossing Disaster.
"Terrifying!" Zhu Yan stared at the giant golden figure, his face filled with shock.
This thing, its origin, how could it appear in such a way?
Crack! Crack!
The golden figure slowly turned around and looked down at the numerous experts below.
Seeing this scene, countless people were extremely shocked and instinctively fled.
There were no words or signs. The golden figure suddenly raised his palm and slammed it down at the fleeing experts.
Bang!
The air exploded as golden waves rolled. Immediately after, everyone saw with astonishment that... The space around the escapees actually shattered. Golden liquid gushed out like a flood. It drowned the experts from various factions, who were caught off guard.
Hua!
The golden liquid came and left quickly. In a few breaths' time, it disappeared without a trace.
Chu Kuangsheng raised his head and looked over. Immediately, his pupils shrank, and his expression was filled with alarm. Golden figures were left behind where the golden liquid swept past. At this moment, this person's eyes were empty, and his face was expressionless. He was like puppets.
He couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. Wasn't this the enlarged version of what had happened to Mount Wu?
These people had clearly been controlled and had completely lost themselves.
"Terrifying!" In this scene, he could only think of these two words.
Zhu Yan was similarly frightened. He smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. Chu, I'm afraid we won't be able to obtain any treasures during this trip to the Imperial Prison."
Chu Kuangsheng's face twitched when he heard this. Facing such a terrifying thing, what treasure could he possibly bring up?
The existence of this thing had already wiped away their last hope. Right now, the key was how to preserve their lives.
At this moment, the one who was terrified at the end was none other than Wu Shan. He had already experienced the terror of his own body, so he was quite afraid of the golden liquid.
Once this thing was touched, his body would no longer belong to him.
Thinking of this, his legs trembled. Without any hesitation, he turned around and fled.
This imperial prison was truly a huge pit, trapping all of them.
"Let's go!" Chu Kuangsheng waved his hand and shouted.
At this moment, they couldn't stay here any longer. All of their previous hopes had been shattered. The most important thing right now was to protect their own lives.
Upon hearing his words, Zhu Yan and the others ran away without hesitation.
If there was a chance to obtain a treasure, they might try their best. However, given the current situation, there was no chance at all. Why would they stay here and wait for death?
Crack! Crack!
The golden figure turned around once again. An indescribable dangerous aura surged through his entire body, causing the faces of Zhu Yan and the others, who were fleeing, to instantly turn pale.
"Dammit! Why is this fellow targeting us?" Chu Kuangsheng cried out in his heart.
At this moment, there were quite a number of people who were fleeing in different directions. And this monster had its eyes on them.
As he was fleeing, Wu Shan caught a glimpse of this scene from the corner of his eye. He immediately let out a cold laugh with a ghastly expression.
This time, that kid is dead for sure.
The heavens truly have eyes, and they helped him take revenge for his severed arm.
Swoosh!
Chu Kuangsheng pushed his speed with all his might and fled frantically towards the outside of the underwater world.
This time, he had lost the bet, and he had lost the best chance to escape.
But even so, he wasn't willing to lose his life just like that. He wanted to escape with all his might.
In response to this, the golden figure appeared extremely calm. It faced the direction where Chu Kuangsheng and the others had fled and slowly raised its palm.
Kacha!
In the next moment, Chu Kuangsheng was shocked to see the space around him suddenly shatter. A golden liquid rolled out from within and swept towards everyone.
Almost at the same time, Lau Tianming and the rest turned into golden bodies. Their eyes became empty. Even Zhu Yan's desperate resistance was unable to escape this fate.
Looking at the golden liquid sweeping towards them, Chu Kuangsheng's eyes could not help but reveal a look of despair. This time, he was really helpless.
"I'm going to die!" He was extremely unwilling in his heart.
At the same time, in that space, light gathered and turned into two old figures.
"Looks like we're still a step too late." One of the white-bearded elder shook his head and said regretfully.
Hearing this, the other black-robed elder remained silent. His turbid eyes swept across the area below and finally landed on Chu Kuangsheng, who was about to be submerged by the golden liquid. A bright light flashed across his eyes.
"Maybe not." A smile appeared on black-robed elder's aged face as he said in a flat tone.2
"Oh?" white-bearded elder looked at him in surprise.
Black-robed elder smiled and did not say anything. He pointed at the young man.
Seeing this, white-bearded elder took the opportunity to look at the young man. His facial expression immediately changed, and a bright light shone in his eyes.
"Hehe! The situation today might be salvaged." Seeing his reaction, black-robed elder said with a faint smile.
Hearing this, white-bearded elder's eyes sparkled, but he did not reply.
All of this was still somewhat difficult to say!
