Chapter 4601: 5.0353 Retreating in Disarray
"Lord Wu Cheng, quickly, run for your life!"
Wu Cheng's pupils constricted as he stared at the dark, glowing orb in the air, his heart pounding wildly. He had just witnessed Young Master Duoshan Ming being sucked into that strange black orb with no chance to resist whatsoever.
Suddenly, five experts appeared on the ship, completely engaging Elder Liang and Elder Li.
"It's the power of an open divine domain."
"A divine domain!"
"It's a divine domain, a refined one!" The people on the ship panicked.
Wu Cheng's body tensed into a straight line. He had considered that the owner of such an impenetrable treasure ship wouldn't be an ordinary person. But he never expected that when the opponent finally made a move, they would directly throw out a refined secret realm, intending to suck in both them and their ship!
The light emitted by the Heart of Misfortune rapidly contracted. Wu Cheng felt unsteady, and the entire ship trembled violently from an extremely strong pulling force. A huge sense of crisis followed, forcing Wu Cheng to make a very difficult decision: abandon ship and escape.
"Jump!" Wu Cheng roared, turning and leaping forcefully into the water.
With a loud splash, his body heavily hit the sea. The surrounding corpse fish, which had been waiting for an opportunity, swarmed towards those who had fallen into the water. Screams, curses, and heart-wrenching cries immediately erupted from the water.
Wu Cheng quickly activated his defensive ring, opening a protective shield. Dozens of sharp-toothed small corpse fish darted towards him with incredible speed. Wu Cheng's eyes widened, and the long blade from his consciousness naturally flew out to protect its master.
At this point, he couldn't care about anything else. The main priority was to save most of the Fiery Nightmare team. A total of over a dozen people fell into the water with Wu Cheng. Three of them were immediately surrounded by corpse fish upon entering the water and were unfortunately bitten. The blood dripping into the sea attracted even more corpse fish.
The three were besieged by swarms of corpse fish. Even after killing hundreds, they couldn't quickly escape under the attack of thousands of corpse fish. Instead, more and more corpse fish gathered around them. Ultimately, the three were completely engulfed by the corpse fish.
Wu Cheng glanced back amidst his desperate struggle, his face filled with pain, and roared, "Go!" He led the remaining eight or nine brothers, decisively swimming away in the opposite direction.
Qiao Mu frowned, exerting great effort to finally pull the entire Fiery Nightmare ship into the Heart of Misfortune. As she sighed in relief, her body swayed slightly. The light from the Heart of Misfortune immediately retracted, turning into a dull black bead that quickly fell into her palm.
Qiao Mu secretly thought, It seems this Fiery Nightmare ship truly has something extraordinary about it. After absorbing this large ship, the Heart of Misfortune won't be able to absorb anything else for a short period.
Oh well, let it rest for a while. Qiao Mu touched the dull bead in her hand, placing it into her sleeve, planning to use her divine sense later to check the situation inside.
"Second Generation Sect Master, Second Generation Sect Master! A few people escaped from that ship, should we send someone to pursue them?"
"No need," Qiao Mu waved her hand. "These people are not to be feared; capturing them wouldn't be of much use, and they wouldn't be able to cause any major trouble."
