"Back off..." Sun Pingkuan suddenly spoke in a mechanical voice, enunciating each word, as if he had lost control of his body, but was still trying his best to convey the message.

Hao Xie reacted quickly, rushed forward and pulled Zhang Hao to a safe distance. The giant beast suddenly screamed, the sound was like a snake or a horse, mixed with the roar of wild beasts, making it difficult to distinguish its species.

The scream of the giant beast created a shock wave that hurt their eardrums. Zhang Hao covered his ears and squatted on the ground.

The water was only up to his ankles, but it made him feel bone-chilled.

Unlike ordinary water, the water temperature here is at least below zero, enough to freeze people, but why doesn't it freeze?

At this time, Sun Pingkuan's body trembled again and he continued to call "Master".

Zhang Hao finally noticed something was wrong.

"Do you feel that Sun Pingkuan has lost control of his body? Who was controlling him when he called out 'Master' just now?"

Hao Xie shook his head. Everything before him was completely beyond his imagination.

He had seen life and death, and all kinds of things in the world, but the scene before him made him feel nothing but indifference.

Perhaps extreme fear would trigger a person's self-protection mechanism, making him indifferent to all this and unusually calm. He felt that he might be calmer than Zhang Hao at this moment.

"Old Zhang, have you ever seen this thing?"

"I have never seen anything like this before. Even the ancient creatures recorded in ancient books did not look like this."

Sun Pingkuan continued to move forward, and seeing that the giant beast was about to swallow him, Zhang Hao suddenly stood up, rushed forward, and pulled Sun Pingkuan back from the edge of the cage at the critical moment.

After being pulled back, Sun Pingkuan continued to struggle to move forward, like a madman.

"Wake up!" Zhang Hao couldn't help but slap Sun Pingkuan, but it had little effect.

At this moment, Zhang Hao suddenly heard singing.

That's right, it was singing, a woman was singing.

"I'm saving him, don't stop me."

The same sound, accompanied by soft humming.

Are there other women here?
Apart from the giant beast in front of him, Zhang Hao didn't recognize any other creatures.

Zhang Hao slowly raised his head and looked at the giant beast, only to see it twisting its body slightly.

"It's me. I'm saving him."

It really is this giant beast speaking!

Zhang Hao and Hao Xie were both shocked and couldn't believe their ears.

This giant beast can actually speak human language and seems to have human thoughts.

So is it a human or a beast?

And at this moment, are they humans or beasts when they hear this sound?
"Why do you think this is saving him?"

Zhang Hao couldn't help himself after all, and was the first to speak to the other party: "Who are you? What role have you played in all the things we have experienced so far?"

"I'll tell you the truth after I eat it."

"Are you crazy, or am I? He is our companion, how could I let you eat him?"

After hearing this, the giant beast tilted its head in confusion, as if it didn't understand this statement.

"Companions? No, we have our own companions. We have... He is my companion, but you are not."

The behemoth does not consider itself a human being, and Sun Pingkuan no longer considers himself a human being.

Sun Pingkuan was like a clockwork robot, walking towards the cage again and again, and being pulled back by Hao Xie again and again.

Finally, Hao Xie couldn't bear it anymore and punched him in the back of the neck, knocking him unconscious.

The ground was full of water. If he was allowed to lie down directly, he would probably drown soon. Hao Xie had no choice but to use one hand to support his upper body, and then said to Zhang Hao: "This thing is too dangerous, you step back, what on earth is it?"

"I am a dragon."

"We are not like you. I have seen real dragons in the sky." Zhang Hao retorted mercilessly, "You are not a dragon."

"Actually... to be honest, I didn't know what I was at first, but his father called me a dragon, so I am a dragon."

Who is the father he is talking about?

Could it be Sun Pingkuan?
Zhang Hao subconsciously looked back, and suddenly, a possibility emerged in his mind.

"Do you know his father? Did you know when Sun Pingkuan was sent to another world?"

"I sent him and his companions away. As a deal, the man with supreme power has dedicated himself to me... If you don't leave, I will eat you all. Only by dedicating your body to me can your soul be freed."

"What do you mean by this..."

"But they were all deceived by Wu Sansheng. His father asked me to find Wu Sansheng and see with my own eyes whether his son has escaped the cycle of life and death."

Zhang Hao finally connected all the clues together.

It turned out that Sun Pingkuan's father used his own body as a price to let Shennong open the gate between the two worlds and send Sun Pingkuan and others to another world, hoping that they could enter reincarnation and be liberated.

Perhaps at that time, Sun Pingkuan's father did not quite understand what was meant by the so-called beyond the cycle of life and death, so he sent Sun Pingkuan and many other experimental subjects to another world.

This also explains why Sun Pingkuan is a special person and can live on the second floor instead of being locked up on the third floor.

"But now that he's back, no one here can escape..."

"Why did he lose consciousness?"

"Because of the horde... I am the will of the horde. I need them, so they have to go through untold hardships to come back. One after another, they have returned. He is the last one. If I accept him, his soul will be sublimated, and we can be together forever..."

Zhang Hao saw two overlapping square logos illuminated by the fluorescent light. He had seen this logo on Sun Pingkuan before. This should be the emblem of the Sun family.

There seemed to be a lot of things shining with golden light hidden under the water... Was it gold?
So... this giant beast is actually the guardian beast of the Sun family. The guardian beast can bring endless wealth to the Sun family, and the people of the Sun family must dedicate their bodies to the giant beast when their souls dissipate.

I don’t know if this giant beast has been brainwashed by someone or if it just thinks this way naturally.

"No more cannibalism!"

"Only by eating it can I become a human again..."

"What do you mean?"

“I will lead my companions to sublime together… Souls, souls, how delicious, hahahaha!”

The behemoth's mental state is becoming increasingly unstable.

Zhang Hao didn't know where this thing came from, so he could only turn around and pull Hao Xie and Sun Pingkuan out. The beast began to hit the cage, and its originally gentle voice gradually became hoarse.

"Give it to me quickly, I want to be free! You used me to gain endless wealth, why can't I do the same! Why can't I! Why can't I be free! Ahhhhhh!"

Zhang Hao was stimulated by this sentence, and suddenly he had some inspiration. He said to Hao Xie while running: "Do you think your third uncle wants to go to that world because he knows that there is endless wealth here? Was your third uncle's goal this giant beast from the beginning?"

This is almost the correct answer, but Zhang Hao still doesn't want to believe that his third uncle would play with so many lives for money. This is not his third uncle's style at all.

But on second thought, no one would have too much money, it is endless wealth. Few people can truly understand the concept of the word "endless"...

The beast was on the verge of losing control. If they continued to stay here, they would become its meal. Zhang Hao led everyone and ran desperately along the path they came from. Finally, they reached the upper level before the beast caught up.

As soon as they came up, the scene before them shocked them.

Zhang Qilin curled up in the corner, the sword in his hand trembling slightly. The female corpse, which was supposed to be lying on the ground, was now standing upright, with her body twisted at an incredible angle, and then slowly moved forward, as if she was about to attack again.

Zhang Qilin raised his sword and tried to fight back, but he was no longer able to do so.

Zhang Hao then noticed that the hand hanging by his side was shaking uncontrollably, and the color of the whole hand was gradually turning black and purple.

This is poisoning!
"Brother! Run towards us!"

Hao Xie shouted at Zhang Qilin.

Zhang Qilin looked back and shouted, "Run! It's too powerful. We can't defeat it!"

Zhang Qilin rarely said such discouraging words. It seemed that this female corpse should not be underestimated as it could have injured him so badly.

At this moment, the female corpse turned her head, glanced at Zhang Hao, and a strange smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"Do you think you can get rid of me by running here?"

It was actually the voice of that giant beast!
It turns out that this female corpse is actually the incarnation of the giant beast below?

No, maybe they are one.

The giant beast spat out the bead in its mouth and threw it into the air. The bead instantly stopped in mid-air and began to spin at high speed, emitting a nearly bluish-white light!
The moment the light appeared, everyone felt their bodies' reactions become slow.

With this thing, it will only get more powerful!
"Step back first! Step back first!"

Zhang Hao shouted at Zhang Qilin, then walked forward, clenched his fists, and began to mobilize all his strength.

Zhang Hao understood that it was not that he was unable to mobilize spiritual power, but the way to obtain spiritual power in this world was completely different from before.

In the previous world, everything in the world had spirits, even the spiritual energy floating in the air could be used for one's own benefit. But the spiritual energy in this world was thin, and Zhang Hao's body had not yet adapted to the environment here, so he was no different from an ordinary person.

However, being unable to adapt to the environment does not mean that Zhang Hao has no way out.

He has a huge amount of energy in him.

That is the power of his soul.

Zhang Hao's physical fitness and soul power have long surpassed the scope of mortals. As long as he wants, he can even turn his body into a source of strength.

Although this action would cause irreversible harm, he had no choice but to protect his companions.

Zhang Hao clenched his fists tightly and began to gradually feel endless power surging in his body. The power was so strong that he almost lost his balance.

This is the power of his soul!
Hao Xie also felt this surging power, and an ominous premonition surged in his heart. He saw a faint light emanating from Zhang Hao's body. This light was gentle and powerful, but it made him feel extremely scared...

It was as if Zhang Hao was burning his life in exchange for strength.

"Lao Zhang, what are you doing! Stop it now!"

"Quickly take Brother Xiao away, I'll deal with it, you guys retreat, I'll be there soon!"

“How could I just abandon you?” Hao Xie pulled out a musket from his backpack and prepared to go forward to help, but Fatty Wang grabbed him by the back of the collar and threw him out.

"Lao Zhang and I will stay here, you guys get out!"

Whenever the most dangerous moment came, Fatty Wang would always order others in this unquestionable tone.

Hao Xie naturally would not obey, but Zhang Hao didn't want to hear them blaming each other anymore, so he picked up the young man and Hao Xie and threw them to the door.

"Get out of here right now! Don't get in my way, or you'll all die here! Fatty, just watch them, trust me!"

Fatty Wang stared at Zhang Hao's eyes for a moment, then grabbed the two of them and said, "Be careful, if you dare to die, I won't let you go even if I become a ghost!"

These contradictory words made Zhang Hao laugh out loud.

The giant beast has begun to attack, trying to stop Fatty Wang from leaving.

Zhang Hao rushed forward and kicked the giant beast away.

The power was so strong that even Zhang Hao himself was caught off guard.

It seems that his soul power is so strong?
Zhang Hao felt more confident and turned to Fatty Wang and said:

"Go out. Believe me, I am blessed with a long life and I will not die."

Fatty Wang took them away, and now only Zhang Hao was left here.

"My feelings towards my companions are the same as yours. We long to be one. Existing as separate individuals is too lonely."

"Stop brainwashing me here! Die!"

Zhang Hao rushed out again, but this time, his attack was easily avoided.

The giant beast laughed coldly.

"You don't think you can hurt me a second time, do you? Under the illumination of this bead, your movements seem to be in slow motion. I just got kicked by you, and I just wanted to see how strong you are. Now it seems that you are just that strong."

This sounded so arrogant, but Zhang Hao knew that she was not bragging, she was telling the truth!
"So? What are you going to do with me after you defeat me? Are you going to swallow me up?"

"No, no, no, you are not our partner. You are not worthy of being fused and eaten by us. I will make your soul fly away, your body rot, and your soul will be trapped here forever and suffer in agony!"

His words made Zhang Hao feel something was wrong.

"Wait, how do you know if the soul will dissipate? The souls in your world--"

Before he could finish his words, the giant beast pounced on him, its hands like claws, and its long nails like swords, as if it would pierce his body in the next second.

The giant beast seemed to be very angry. Why didn't it want to listen to Zhang Hao continue talking? Was what Zhang Hao said true?
"Your world actually has reincarnation, right? What is the secret of this world? Tell me!"

No matter how Zhang Hao questioned, the giant beast no longer responded, and each attack went straight to the vital points.

"You are so angry because you want to kill people to silence them? Because I know the secret of your world, right?"

"Go to hell, go to hell!" (End of this chapter)
