C749 The Appearance of an Evil Cultivator
Everyone followed Wang Chuan's lead, but since Zhou Yi came in, Wang Chuan had been very respectful towards him. Thus, everyone's attitude changed along with Wang Chuan's change.
Since Zhou Yi said to wait, then everyone should just sit on the ground and wait.
"How often does Demonic Cultivator come?" Zhou Yi spoke up.
Wang Chuan lowered his eyes and calculated for a moment, and said: "There is no sunrise or sunset here, so the concept of time is very confusing. I feel like it will only happen once every three days or so!"
Zhou Yi nodded. If he wanted to ensure that he got enough from these people, he had to give them time to recover, so they couldn't come everyday.
Not long after they finished speaking, the entire space began to rapidly darken.
Everything became dark and gloomy as far as the eye could see.
Looking at the gradually increasing demonic energy, a hint of fierceness flashed in Zhou Yi's eyes.
The roiling demonic energy stopped when it was about 3 to 5 meters away from them. Like Wang Chuan said, the place that was left for them was not big, it was only enough for them to stand next to each other.
"The demonic energy is surging. After one day, Demonic Cultivator will send someone to extract the demonic energy!" Wang Chuan looked at the demonic aura in front of him and muttered.
Zhou Yi lowered his eyes because he also realized that the demonic energy was starting to suppress the Spiritual Force in his body. It was just as Wang Chuan said before, with these things here, they couldn't use their full power.
Luckily, Zhou Yi had Shadow's help. The moment the demonic aura tried to get close to Zhou Yi, the Shadow had already finished it in Dark Geography.
A day passed in the blink of an eye. Finally, a figure appeared in the pitch-black demonic energy.
"One person at a time?" Zhou Yi was surprised. There were more than a hundred people trapped here. Was Demonic Cultivator not afraid of not coming back?
Wang Chuan smiled bitterly, "Right now, we are no different from ordinary people. Moreover, when he is extracting his aura, we are not even comparable to children. So, they naturally don't need that many people!"
Zhou Yi was secretly shocked in his heart. No wonder these Demonic Cultivator could keep him here for so long.
While speaking, Demonic Cultivator had walked out from the demonic aura.
It was a man in his forties, a little hunched over, holding a round container about the size of a volleyball. It was transparent, but it didn't look like glass.
"Hehe, everyone, are you ready? We will begin now! " The man grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth.
Everyone present subconsciously retreated a few steps back.
The man continued to laugh, "Why are you all so shy? This is not the first time you all are doing this. However, I can tell you all that it won't be long before you are free! "Hehe!"
The man's laughter was harsh, while Zhou Yi couldn't help but frown when he heard it.
"Sir, what should we do?" Wang Chuan quietly took half a step forward, trying to block Zhou Yi behind him.
Zhou Yi said in a low voice, "Don't act rashly!"
Hearing that, the spiritual energy that was churning in Wang Chuan's palm slowly dispersed.
Seeing the crowd's reaction, he seemed very satisfied. He didn't even notice the presence of a few more people and only said, "Everyone, stand still. If I were to find out who dares to make any small movements, I'll make sure he'll never be able to stand up again!"
With that, he raised the utensil in his hand and stood about four to five meters away from the group as he started to chant.
After a while, the container emitted a ray of light and slowly rose into the air.
"Freeze!" The man let out a loud shout, causing the container to stop in mid-air. Following that, the light from the container slowly spread downwards, illuminating everyone below.
"Withdraw!" The man's hands danced wildly in front of his body. A moment later, he made up his mind and pointed at the utensils in the air.
Then, Zhou Yi felt a surge of Essence Qi slowly rushing out of his body. He turned around, and everyone else seemed to have the same reaction as him.2
Zhou Yi tried to use the energy in his body to resist, but he found that there was nothing the energy could do. The energy slowly left his body and floated towards the container in the air.
As the aura left his body, Zhou Yi instantly felt weak and it was difficult for him to concentrate.
"No wonder!" Zhou Yi sighed.
Before the second wave of Profound Qi left his body, he had no choice but to use the power of his golden body to protect the Profound Qi inside his body.
About two or three minutes later, four fifths of the milky white gas had already been stored inside the transparent container. Those were the Profound Qi that had been extracted from these people.
Zhou Yi turned his head around and saw that even Elder Li and the others who came in with him had turned pale. It seemed like they were also under that guy's control.
"Withdraw!" The man pointed at the transparent container in the air with his finger pointing at it. The container actually floated down obediently and landed in his hand.
Then, he turned around and swaggered towards the demonic energy.
Zhou Yi snorted coldly. His figure had already disappeared from where he stood. When he reappeared, he had already arrived at the edge of the demonic energy. Demonic Cultivator's body had just drilled into the demonic energy.
"Where do you think you're going!" Zhou Yi growled. Then, he raised his hand and struck the guy's neck.
"Who, who are you?"
Before the man fainted, he only had time to see half of Zhou Yi's clothes.
Zhou Yi stretched out his hand and caught the utensil in Demonic Cultivator's hand, then threw Demonic Cultivator to the ground not far away.
"Take a look, can you guys return this essence energy back?" Zhou Yi handed the item in his hand to Wang Chuan. Then, he started to study Demonic Cultivator in front of him.
His top priority right now was to find out how to leave this place, so after thinking for a while, Zhou Yi decided to be direct and use Demonic Cultivator's memory.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yi stretched out his hand and gently placed it on Demonic Cultivator's head.
On the other side, Wang Chuan looked back at Zhou Yi and made sure that he was alright. He then said to the others, "I will open this container in a while. Everyone be prepared, the essence energy inside has not started to fuse yet, so it's easier to distinguish!"
Everyone hurriedly nodded their heads. Then, Jiyi dragged the utensils with his left hand and made a hand sign with his right hand. He began mumbling non-stop.
A moment later, the top of the container began to emit a milky white energy, shocking everyone.
"If you feel your own Qi, then quickly take it back. But do not snatch it away from others!" Wang Chuan instructed.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Then Wang Chuan started talking faster and the milky-white energy suddenly surged out. Everyone started to get busy.
But at this moment, a scream came from Zhou Yi. Wang Chuan didn't care about anything else and turned his head in a flurry to look at the source of the scream …
