Chapter 314 Giant Egg
Hu Qing and Gu Yang took advantage of the night and rushed towards the pond.
In the sky, dense blood-red lines intertwined like a spider web, guiding the direction of their progress.
The roads around were quiet, even the monsters that were usually seen everywhere disappeared without a trace. It seemed that they were also affected by this formation.
"This formation doesn't even let go of the blood, flesh and energy of the monsters." Gu Yang said in a low voice, with a serious tone.
Hu Qing nodded, his eyes cold. "It seems the people on the Flower Boat want to drain the life force of the entire Deepwater Town all at once, including the monsters. Are they crazy? What on earth do they want to do?"
The two of them rushed all the way, but felt waves of fatigue coming over them.
This was completely different from their usual state, as if every step consumed several times more effort than usual.
Hu Qing frowned slightly, and after taking a peek at himself, he whispered, "Something's wrong. We've also been affected by the formation."
Gu Yang understood immediately after hearing this, and his expression changed: "Are you saying that our energy consumption has been amplified, so that's why we are so exhausted?"
Hu Qing nodded, with a hint of caution in his tone: "Although our flesh and blood energy was not directly absorbed, the power of the formation affected the efficiency of our activities.
Right now, I estimate we're using more than three times as much energy as usual."
Gu Yang gritted his teeth, took out two high-grade spirit stones from his storage ring, and handed one to Hu Qing:
"Ah Qing, take this and absorb it while you're on your way. Otherwise, I don't think we'll make it to the pool."
The two men held the spirit stones in their hands, absorbing the spiritual power in them as they hurried on, barely maintaining their physical strength.
Finally, they arrived above the waterfall.
The originally turbulent water flow has now become calm, and even the water level has dropped, as if it was suppressed by some force.
"The pool is right below." Hu Qing whispered, his eyes fixed on the bottom of the waterfall.
The two looked down along the waterfall and saw that the water in the pool had become bloody and sticky, as if it had been dyed red with blood.
The surrounding land was devastated, revealing the full extent of the formation.
Those intricate golden threads intertwined into a huge net on the ground, and each golden thread emitted a strange light.
"The range of this formation is far larger than we imagined." Gu Yang said in a low voice, with a hint of shock in his tone.
Hu Qing's gaze swept across the formation and finally stopped at the center of the pool.
I saw a huge egg floating above the original location of the array.
The surface of the egg was covered with a white film, which was covered with blood and trembled slightly as if it had life.
Through the moonlight, you can vaguely see the creatures inside swimming, as if waiting for the moment to break out of the shell.
"What is that thing?" Gu Yang asked in a low voice, with a hint of vigilance in his tone.
Hu Qing shook his head, his eyes filled with a bit of solemnity: "I don't know, but what is certain is that the thing was made by Hua Chuan and the others.
We have to find a way to destroy it as soon as possible, I just have a bad feeling about it."
Gu Yang nodded, gripped the Soul Devouring Blade tightly, and said with a bit of determination: "Then do it!"
Hu Qing stood above the waterfall, his eyes fixed on the huge egg in the center of the pool.
A strong sense of uneasiness surged in his heart, as if something terrible was growing in the egg.
He raised his hand to stop Gu Yang who was about to attack, and whispered, "Wait a moment, I will activate my foresight and see what will happen in the future."
Hearing this, Gu Yang stopped and nodded: "Okay, be careful."
Hu Qing closed his eyes, circulated his spiritual power, and activated his predictive ability.
A series of discontinuous images instantly emerged in his mind:
——The sky was filled with white bones, piled up like mountains, as if the entire Deepwater Town had turned into a dead city.
——A giant monster covered in black, its body so huge that it almost blocked out the sky.
Its fingers were as thick as mountains and easily penetrated Gu Yang's body.
——Gu Yang was spitting blood, his eyes were gray, and it was obvious that he had been dead for a long time.
The remains of his flesh-and-blood puppet were still hanging from the monster's mouth, and blood was dripping from its fangs.
——The monster was so huge that only half of its blood-red eye, a mouth full of fangs, and a thick finger could be seen in the predicted image.
Hu Qing suddenly opened his eyes, his face was as pale as paper, and fine beads of cold sweat oozed from his forehead.
His body trembled slightly, as if he was still immersed in the scene just now.
"What's wrong?" Gu Yang noticed Hu Qing's abnormality and asked hurriedly.
Hu Qing took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
He narrated the scenes he saw to Gu Yang one by one, his tone heavy:
"If we act now, we'll die. That monster... is too terrifying."
After hearing this, Gu Yang's face instantly became serious.
He was silent for a moment, then suddenly laughed, with a hint of disdain in his tone:
"What kind of difficulties have we not encountered? Can a mere bird egg scare you? Being afraid of death is not your style."
Hu Qing frowned and whispered, "But the strength of that monster is far beyond our imagination. If we act rashly, we will only die in vain."
Gu Yang shook his head, his eyes filled with determination. "Even if I die, so what? I'm going to stab this guy before I die!"
After he finished speaking, he gripped the Soul Devourer Blade tightly, his gaze fixed on the giant egg in the center of the pool, his tone carrying a hint of coldness:
"This formation is draining the vitality of everyone in Deepwater Town. If we don't take action, the entire town will be doomed.
Rather than sit and wait for death, it is better to fight to the death!"
Hu Qing looked at Gu Yang's determined eyes, and the hesitation in his heart gradually dissipated.
He nodded, his tone somewhat relieved: “You are right, being afraid of death is not our style.
In that case, let’s go together!”
The two smiled at each other, then quickly jumped down from the waterfall and ran towards the giant egg in the center of the pool.
