529: C529 Dive in Again

C529 Dive in Again

On the morning of the second day:

The two young men who had changed shifts at the entrance of the cave realized that there was no one at the entrance.

"Sixth, Seventh Brother …" The two of them stood outside the cave and shouted.

"Ugh …" "Ugh …" Two anxious growls came from within the cave. However, the sounds were somewhat strange.

The two of them reacted in an instant and rushed into the cave.

"What the hell is going on!" The two of them ripped off the rags from the mouths of the six and seven elders, then spoke with faces full of fear.

The sacrificial offerings within the cave had all disappeared overnight. This incident was definitely a disaster for the entire stronghold.

"Pah! Pah!" Run, run! Quickly, go inform the chief! " The sixth brother moved his sore mouth and shouted.

"Oh, oh, right. I'll go right now!" One of them stood up and quickly disappeared into the cave.

In less than three minutes, the entire stronghold was in an uproar!

Following the sound of a bugle horn, everyone ran out of the house and gathered in the square.

The leader looked at the people below him with a dark expression and said angrily, "Find them! Even if we have to dig three feet into the ground, we must find them!"

"Faster!" Following that, the strong young man also gave a loud shout before leaving with his people.

The leader was the only one left in the square. He turned around and looked at the statue behind him. He had no idea what expression was in his eyes. After a long while, the leader also turned around and left.

Zhou Yi took them all the way and finally arrived at a cave.

That was the most secluded place Zhou Yi found in the forest.

"You guys can hide here for the time being. You can leave after they give up on hunting you down!" After Zhou Yi settled them here, he said.

"What about you, sir?" The old man raised his head and glanced at Zhou Yi.

The meaning behind his words was that Zhou Yi had to leave them here and escape on his own.

"Me?" Zhou Yi raised his eyebrows. Naturally, he understood the meaning behind the old man's words. Then, he smiled and said, "Naturally, I will go back to continue studying that beast statue."

Hearing Zhou Yi's words, everyone had a worried look on their faces. The movie emperor had a surprised expression as he said, "You've already escaped, and you still want to go back? Are you done for?"

Zhou Yi shook his head in silence.

Although the thing under the stone statue was a Auspicious Beast, who knew if it was dangerous?

Furthermore, since it was Universe Stage that sealed it, Zhou Yi made sure that he would find a way to seal it.

But the condition was that he had to research and understand the formation. His current cultivation level was too low, so he had to think of other ways to repair the formation.

The search by the people in the stronghold lasted for three days.

However, the forest was too big. No matter how hard they tried to find it, they couldn't find any clues.

The entire stronghold was basically empty. Even at night, there were only a few elders and children who were not even three years old left in the stronghold.

"Reporting to the leader, we've never found anything in the northwest!" A strong young man knelt at the leader's feet and replied in a low voice.

"Stand up, continue searching in other directions!" There was no hint of happiness or anger on the leader's face. No one knew whether he was angry or sad, or whether his voice had not changed in the slightest.

This feeling made the people below a little uneasy, so he lifted his head and asked carefully, "Leader?"

"Go quickly!"

The leader growled.

The young man's expression tightened before he hastily bowed his head and said, "Yes!"

Then, he had already disappeared.

Subsequently, the leader let out a soft sigh and raised his head to look at the huge stone statue. A hint of fear gradually rose in his eyes.

This stone statue had existed since he could remember.

When his father died, he had told him that this thing would devour a batch of offerings on the night of the full moon.

The quality of the tribute would also be different.

The simplest thing was the Strange Beast's corpse, but one's cultivation must be sufficient.

Luckily they had a secret medicine in their clan, no matter how strong the Strange Beast was, as long as they ingested that secret medicine, their entire body would be as stiff as steel, and could be slaughtered by others.

The second was to obtain a few important organs from the Strange Beast.

When harvesting organs, one must ensure that the Strange Beast was in a clear-headed state. Only by doing so would the anger and hatred of the Strange Beast be aroused, and the ability to remove organs would be even stronger.

The last and most terrifying type was the sacrifice of the living.

Back then, it was because of this living priest that a portion of the people in the village were dissatisfied with him. That was why all of them left the village in a fit of rage to set up a new sect.

The people he had saved up for so many days had all disappeared in one night, but three days later, it was time to offer sacrifices to the living. How could he offer sacrifices if there were no living people? Was he really going to use the people in his stronghold?

The leader knew what would have happened if he hadn't been sacrificed, which was why he was in such a hurry.

"Tonight, I will return to the village to investigate. Is there anyone among you who is willing to go with me?"

Zhou Yi stood at the entrance of the cave and looked at the crowd in the cave.

However, when these people heard his words, they didn't immediately reply. Instead, they sneakily looked in another direction …

Even the old man from before sighed and replied, "After this, we … we won't dare to enter that stronghold again. If we are caught, the consequences will be …"

They didn't dare to go, so Zhou Yi had already expected it. He could only ask as a matter of fact, he didn't expect them to really go with him.

Zhou Yi did not answer and nodded his head. Then, he turned around and prepared to leave.

"I'm willing to go!"

"I'll go too!"

The moment Zhou Yi turned around, two voices sounded from behind him.

Zhou Yi's sharp eyebrows twitched as he turned around to look at the two of them.

The two of them were young, around twenty years old. Both of them had long hair that reached their shoulders. One of them had a big mouth while the other had a small nose.

"Ah Yan, Ah Wu, are the two of you okay?" The old man turned around and looked at the two youths with a puzzled expression. From the looks of it, he believed in the two of them too much.

"Yes, yes!" The two of them nodded at the same time like chicks pecking rice.

The old man turned his head and looked at Zhou Yi. He said, "These two children are still young, so they can be considered to be very calm. However, I hope that Mister can decide whether they bring them or not."1

Zhou Yi raised his eyes and looked at the two of them. He then smiled and said, "I'm just looking for two people to put up a front. I'll leave you guys be!" With that, he turned around and walked out.

As night fell, there was still no one moving within the stronghold.

Everyone went out to search for Zhou Yi, but they didn't expect that Zhou Yi would bring the two of them back to the village.

The stronghold became even quieter than before. Zhou Yi returned to the front of the statue familiarly.

Ah Yan and Ah Wu were standing not far behind him, keeping watch while Zhou Yi studied the formation beneath the statue. This time, he must think of a way to solve this problem …
