523: C523 Sacrifice

C523 Sacrifice

When Zhou Yi saw the statue, he was stunned for a moment.

No matter how he looked at it, that statue did not look like anything good. And the strangest thing was that underneath the statue, there were two Strange Beast corpses dripping with blood.

A layer of goosebumps instantly appeared on Zhou Yi's body.

He had originally wanted to sneak into the stronghold to take a look, but when he saw the stone statue, he had already eliminated this idea.

Furthermore, the more he looked at the people in the village, the more he felt that they were not in their right minds. No wonder he was not allowed to enter the stronghold, it was because of this reason.

Just like that, Zhou Yi squatted on the tree for the whole afternoon. Other than the statue, the people in the village didn't seem to have done anything out of line.

Moreover, these people were considered to have settled down. Throughout the entire day, not a single person had taken a step out of the stronghold.

In the evening, Zhou Yi went out to find something to eat. When he came back, it was almost dark.

He had planned to find a tree to stay on for the night, but when he lay down, he discovered that a torch had suddenly lit up inside the stronghold.

Zhou Yi stood up again and hid himself in the dense leaves. His aura also became much lower.

After a while, the gates of the stronghold was opened, and a group of people walked out.

Zhou Yi counted roughly. There were about fifteen people in total, all of them strong young people. However, the one leading the way was not the person that Zhou Yi had met that day.

This man looked younger than the previous one, and his eyes were sharper. Moreover, the people he brought with him were mostly muscular young men.

Other than the crackling of the flames, no sound of footsteps or breathing could be heard. If Zhou Yi had not seen another group of people two days ago, he would have thought that the people in this village were all ghosts.

Not long after the group of ghosts passed under the tree, they turned around and headed towards a small path on the left.

Zhou Yi did not dare to follow them. He had a feeling that these people were stronger than the ones he met before.

Gradually, the torchlight in front of his eyes disappeared. Then, Zhou Yi carefully slid down from the tree. After confirming that no one was coming out of the village, Zhou Yi followed.

In the dark forest, due to the illumination of the fire, it was not hard for Zhou Yi to complete his tracking.

However, he was just curious. These people had left the stronghold in the middle of the night, yet they were still drilling into the dense forest. Why were they doing this?

Just like that, after about an hour, Zhou Yi suddenly heard an angry roar from the forest.

Although the roar was still quite a distance away from Zhou Yi, the hair on the back of his neck started to stand up.

It was the roar of a Strange Beast!

Although Zhou Yi's Spiritual Force and cultivation had disappeared, he could still distinguish the roars of Strange Beast of all ranks.

For the one just now, if it was a person with a person's cultivation, they would at least have Divinity Stage.

If it was before, a small Divinity Stage would only last a few minutes for Zhou Yi, but now he didn't have any confidence at all. Hearing that yell, he had the urge to not walk any further.

Moreover, the Strange Beast's cultivation was Divinity Stage, but its body's various functions were strong, if one calculated it directly, it could reach the Indestructible Stage.

Zhou Yi gritted his teeth. He could not see the light in front of him anymore, so he followed him in the end.

After another half an hour of walking, another roar came from the front. This roar was even closer than the previous one.

Following that roar, a lot of Young Beast suddenly came out of the forest in front. If Zhou Yi was not mistaken, these guys should be scared by that roar.

But then, Zhou Yi also felt weird. It's the middle of the night, why isn't that guy sleeping? Why is he training his throat in the forest when he has nothing to do?

With this curiosity, Zhou Yi's previous fear didn't seem to be that strong.2

The figures in front seemed to have stopped at this moment as well.

Zhou Yi still didn't dare to get too close. However, in order to get a better view, he quietly moved forward another dozens of meters and then quietly climbed up a big tree.

Due to the light of the fire in front of them, Zhou Yi could see very clearly.

It was precisely because of this that Zhou Yi almost fell down from the tree.

Because the food reflected in the light was really ugly, Zhou Yi had a feeling that he wanted to spit out everything he had eaten in the afternoon.

However, those people didn't seem to have this kind of thought like Zhou Yi, because they were doing something, something that was extremely common in their eyes.

A tens of metres tall lizard like Strange Beast lay on the ground, but other than its head being able to move, it could no longer move its body.

Those angry roars just now should have been made by it.

Compared to the Strange Beast, the ten-odd people were not much different from ants or elephants.

Even the long saber in their hands looked like a toothpick.

But as they moved, the Strange Beast's body would slightly tremble. Zhou Yi could tell that it was definitely painful.

Was a toothpick really that painful for a Strange Beast with rough skin and thick flesh?

However, just this toothpick, had already cut off the entire piece of Strange Beast's skin. It was extremely thick and rough, as if it could only be described as thick and rough.

"When the f * ck did this start?" Zhou Yi looked at the Strange Beast's body, then looked at the blade in their hands.

While Zhou Yi was still confused, the young man in the lead had already walked to the head of the Strange Beast. With a squat, he appeared on top of the Strange Beast's head.

The Strange Beast struggled, but to no avail, it could not even raise its head.

Zhou Yi saw fear in its eyes.

The young man raised the long blade in his hand and arrived in front of the Strange Beast.

Zhou Yi, who was standing far away, felt pain in his eyes.

Roar!

The Strange Beast's roar had already become a pitiful whimper, its entire body once again violently trembled, but it still did not have the strength to resist.

The young man held onto the sword hilt with both of his hands and actually walked in a circle around the Strange Beast's eye sockets.

Zhou Yi shuddered.

He gouged out a huge eyeball.

The person below was already prepared. The instant the eyeball left the eye socket, it fell into the cloth bag.

"What the hell are you doing?" Zhou Yi didn't understand. In the past, he had killed the Strange Beast, but now, this group of people were clearly using torture to skin the Strange Beast alive. Then, while it was still alive, they gouged out its eyeballs.

Just when Zhou Yi was wondering what other terrifying thing they were going to do, the young man walked towards the Strange Beast's chest.

"Are you trying to gouge your heart out?" Zhou Yi couldn't help but mutter.

Sure enough, before he finished speaking, the young man's long blade had already pierced down towards the Strange Beast's chest …
