After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In
Chapter 112: Look Back and You Die

Chapter 112: Chapter 112: Look Back and You Die

The excruciating pain left the burly man bewildered, but soon terror took over everything.

He wanted to beg for mercy.

Alas, he watched as the hand suddenly twisted.

Crack!

The flesh of his shoulder twisted instantly, blood splattering onto the ground.

The pain was slow to come, but it followed immediately after.

Before he could even make a plea, the screams broke out first.

He never expected that his assailant would strike him down with such a thunderous force.

Without hesitating, the burly man turned his head to flee.

Yet, as soon as he turned his head, the other shoulder was grasped by that hand.

In an instant, terror spread through his blood, his body stiffening on the ground.

"Senior, please....ah....."

With just a light squeeze, the burly man’s shoulder shattered.

At the same time, another large hand grasped the burly man’s head.

"No, please no..."

Thump!

Blood spilled onto the ground.

Gu An did not spare the man another glance, casually placing the corpse in the Array.

Then he stabbed the man’s chest several times with his sword.

A sword thrust to the left, right, and center.

With that, after collecting the man’s Storage Treasure, he stepped away.

Especially since he saw the Array already glowing, starting to operate.

He knew the sacrifice had begun.

Those within the Array trying to escape, it was almost impossible.

Gu An lowered his gaze; he could not be concerned with these people.

Once he intervenes, Senior Sister Huang would become aware.

Nor could he wear down Senior Sister Huang.

Concealing his Qi, Gu An began to walk deeper, specifically avoiding the people in the Array.

Soon, he arrived at the next site, seeing a middle-aged man with bloodshot eyes, clutching his throat in pain, as if unable to breathe.

Looking at the man’s plight, Gu An lowered his eyes.

The man’s Qi-Blood was being extracted by the Array; he would be drained dry in a matter of a few hours.

Without staying or showing any sympathy.

Gu An continued walking deeper.

He passed several Arrays, each person’s situation was slightly different, but what they shared was their intense pain.

And what made Gu An feel sorrowful was that, they actually didn’t even try to break free from the Arrays.

It seemed they truly believed that if they held on, they would obtain Spiritual Medicine.

Could regain their cultivation.

Only then did pity appear in Gu An’s eyes.

But it vanished in an instant.

He had no right to feel it.

For if he had not known in advance, he might have been one of these people.

Compared to them, he had no grounds for feeling noble.

He couldn’t afford to be careless either.

Gu An sighed in his heart and stopped his musings.

Instead, he stayed vigilant of his surroundings.

And started to walk deeper.

Elsewhere.

Near the entrance to the nest, Gongsun Hai stood within the Array, feeling his Blood Qi draining away.

He looked towards the middle-aged man ahead with some confusion: "Daoist He, why is my Qi-Blood flowing away?"

"There’s no reason; this is the Array’s function," replied Daoist He casually.

At this moment, he was observing the surroundings, waiting for the Array to change.

Now that the Array was fully activated, the Blood Qi had indeed started entering the Array, and the people inside should have started too.

Before all of them died, the person inside must complete their task.

Otherwise, the consequences were unpredictable.

"The function of the Array?" Gongsun Hai feelingly said, "Why do I feel that my movements are also restricted? Unable to leave far?"

"Of course, to ensure that you don’t rashly escape," answered Daoist He.

"When will the Array stop?" Gongsun Hai asked again.

Daoist He’s cold eyes showed disdain: "It won’t stop. This was meant to be a sacrifice; you all are going to die."

Hearing this, Gongsun Hai felt like thunder had struck on a sunny day: "Wasn’t it said we came to get spiritual medicine? Why has it turned into a sacrifice? Does Senior Sister Huang know about this?"

"What do you think? If she didn’t know, could we have possibly brought you all here?" Daoist He looked at the man in front of him as if looking at a dead person:

"You also don’t need to worry. Everyone will die here anyway; it’s just a matter of dying a bit earlier."

Daoist He shook his head and sighed:

"To think you all were naively expecting spiritual medicine. If there were such good things, why would we deign to share with you trash?"

"Don’t you even think about who you are? Are you even worth that much?"

"You..." Gongsun Hai, filled with anger, was at a loss for words to retort.

"No wonder you are being sacrificed. It’s entirely due to your own stupidity. Do you really think of yourselves as people?" He Taoist powered up the Array, and instantly, Blood Qi surged forth.

He made his way toward the nest.

This Blood Qi caused a fog to appear around the nest.

It seemed as if everything had fallen into silence.

"Foolish things, witness for yourselves how you will die." He Taoist laughed heartily.

Infuriated, Gongsun Hai channeled his power and launched an attack.

Boom!

A punch was thrown, only to hit the air, unable to advance an inch.

It was as if there was an invisible wall there.

"Hahaha." He Taoist stepped forward to stand right in front of the punch, saying, "I am right here, you can try to attack. If you can land a hit on me, I’ll kneel before you.

How about it?

Surely you cannot miss even a single strike.

To be so useless at your age?"

"You’re courting death." Gongsun Hai was provoked.

Churning his Qi-Blood, he attacked frantically, but every punch he threw hit nothing but air, unable to make any progress whatsoever.

"Is that all the strength you have?" He Taoist coldly said, "What a waste."

His words drove Gongsun Hai to once again gather his strength and launch an attack forward.

But this was exactly what He Taoist wanted.

Only in this way could he drain the Qi-Blood even faster.

The person before him looked like a human, but to him, he was just a monkey that could be toyed with at will.

"Looking like a human, yet such a waste," He Taoist mused.

"You will die." At this moment, Gongsun Hai realized he had no way out.

He channeled all his strength, putting his all into his arm.

Seeing this, He Taoist was full of confidence: "Try if you can hurt me."

He was convinced there would be no accidents.

At the same time, Gongsun Hai threw another punch.

Boom!

The punch created a howling wind as it struck the air.

A roaring sound followed.

He Taoist was about to make another mocking remark when suddenly the wind brushed through his hair.

Suddenly, something sank into his forehead.

Bang!

In just an instant, He Taoist was sent flying backward.

The sudden turn of events left Gongsun Hai incredulous.

Had the attack worked?

He immediately looked forward and saw He Taoist standing up with a bloodied face, his forehead now sporting a wound.

A stone had dislodged from that spot.

At this moment, He Taoist looked around in panic: "Who’s there?"

Whoosh!

The whistling sound appeared once again.

As He Taoist looked around, suddenly a branch appeared before him.

Thud!

The branch pierced right through his shoulder, sending him crashing backward.

Bang!

The branch pinned He Taoist against a tree.

In such a state of fear, he looked around in panic and said:

"Senior, I am but a servant, and besides, I am Senior Brother Chen from Zone 7..."

Whoosh!

Thud!

Another branch pierced through He Taoist’s other shoulder.

At this moment.

He Taoist abandoned all will to resist and begged:

"Senior, you can kill the Demon Beast if you enter the nest now, you can definitely get out. Please, let me go."

Patter!

Footsteps could then be heard.

He Taoist quickly looked over and soon he saw a person, his eyes filled with disbelief: "How could it be you? No, don’t kill me, I..."

Thud!

A branch appeared and pierced directly through He Taoist’s brow.

Gongsun Hai, watching all this, swallowed hard unconsciously.

He knew that person was behind him but dared not turn around.

If he did, he might just die on the spot.
