Chapter 1315: Chapter 797_2
Su Changâan felt many auras, and after checking, he realized this area wasnât necessarily occupied by people having returned.
To verify if it was human or a human-like creature, he asked Luo Yaxuan, and those patrolling outside the island indicated that anyone wishing to enter must have the Sun and Moon Patrol Team open the formation to allow entry.
He also didnât think those who left the island would return!
Who knows how long this island will remain closed?
Ordinary people or ordinary cultivators entering here canât leave; they can only remain imprisoned in this closed environment, like being jailed!
They can only stay in their residences, unable to go outside.
Once outside the island, they can choose other paths or find other ways to survive!
Most on the island are fishermen; even those who arenât learn to fish, swim, and gather resources. They wouldnât sit here waiting for food or death with ambition!
Luo Yaxuan is responsible for daytime patrols; if anyone wants to enter the formation, it would naturally be during the day. The patrol team registers entries, so he would know if someone wanted to enter!
âThe people from this residential area left and never returned! Given the presence of so many auras here, letâs see what kind of creatures these are,â he suggested.
Luo Yaxuanâs expression grew solemn!
Although Su Changâan saw creatures using his Divine Sense, he understood they werenât human!
As Luo Yaxuan spoke, he felt the presence wasnât human and, combined with their recent monster battle, his expression grew more solemn!
âOh no, could that be a monster?â
Su Changâan thought the same thing as Yaxuan!
They were now organizing personnel to combat Eastern monsters!
That house had so many auras, possibly hosting many monsters!
Why are there so many monsters here?
When they discovered several places on the island with appearances of Eastern monsters!
They began laying formations one after another across different houses!
Only a few had personnel guarding them, while other places, whether occupied or vacant, were designed with formations!
At this moment, they speculated that perhaps the vacant houses with formations were keeping monsters trapped, unable to emerge. Maybe the formation was restraining them!
But where did those monsters emerge from? The sewers?
The two guessed that regardless of what creature emerged from the sewers, it likely bore some connection to the previous Eastern monster appearances, which also occurred in various passages!
The two had landed their Flying Artifact on the roof of that house!
With this discovery, they also informed some nighttime patrol teams.
The patrol teams, including a female patrol team, managed by Yun Duoduo, arrived after their notice!
They did not enter the formation but, upon learning there might be monsters inside, reinforced the formations of those houses!
They also sealed that section of the sewer to prevent the monsters from spreading or coming from elsewhere!
Yun Duoduo sent her pet, the Moonlight Stone Elf, into the formation to investigate what was happening inside.
They broadcasted a live video back to them!
They saw baby-sized spiders with red eyes crawling throughout the house!
Indeed, they were on the rim of the formation, damaging the houseâs formation!
When they saw this spider emerging from a passage, they observed the passageway!
Su Changâan and Luo Yaxuan were relieved that their night inspection and todayâs water leech monster appearance were similar; these spiders appeared only today!
They hadnât just settled in the sewers but somehow entered them and into the house, not expecting the formation to trap them!
This formation was the weakest they had seen, and since no one lived there, it wouldnât cause a commotion that cultivators could rapidly detect!
The monsters seemed to have some intelligence. As soon as they emerged under discreet circumstances, they had plans to break this formation and create panic, all emerging through this passage, breaking through the islandâs formation. More monsters could then come through the passage!
Once again, realizing their dreams of advancing into the Cultivation World!
âGosh, so many monsters! Could they have just appeared? What a close call; if we were a step slower, this monster could have devoured many on the island!â
âThese monsters appeared so stealthily; itâs insidious and cunning. Despite the number of patrol teams and task members here, so many monsters appearing in the slums, ordinary and ordinary cultivatorsâ we couldnât save so many people at once!â
The crowd discussed extensively, recalling rumors of human flesh and white bones outside the island today. As cultivators can rescue people and prevent sudden occurrences, they canât help if too many people are involved!
For ordinary people and ordinary cultivators, their lives werenât related to theirs and werenât valuable!
The discussion was small astonishment, realizing that although people died, there was a little guilt, but only slightly!
They indeed were tasked but werenât accountable for everyone!
âSince these are monsters, letâs unabashedly slay them!â Su Changâan noticed the spiders had Demon Cores.
âDid you notice that the webs made by the Spider Monsters were extremely durable? Donât destroy these belongings; focus on fighting the monsters!â Luo Yaxuan remarked that anything salvageable should be kept!
Others realized this and hesitated over setting fire!
âI believe we can use another method, letâs freeze the monsters!â Su Changâan suggested again!
âYes, both fire and ice can control them!â Yun Duoduo agreed!
So, they selected the ones who could cast Ice Spells!
The task for others was to strengthen the formation. If spiders could appear through a passage, that passage must be sealed; the saltwater pathway is also a Demon Realm Passage!
Each person remained stationed at their tasks!
Su Changâan naturally went to reinforce the formations in that area.
Luo Yaxuan led others in inspecting and reinforcing formations in other houses on the island and checked for other passages in the sewers.
Those with Ice Spells began freezing areas with demons across the island!
They discovered all demons feared freezing; once sealed together in ice, their blood couldnât flow, nor could spells be activated!
The spiders were weaving webs and using their teeth on the formation!
As they noticed the formation change, the atmosphere turned cold, and the binglang steadily restricted their blood flow, turning moisture in the air into ice!
Soon, the spidersâ red eyes became spiritless; if they could emerge outside, they could spew venom!
The cold sealed them, preventing any movement of limbs or mouth!
Su Changâan watched as the spiders inside the formation couldnât resist, proving their freezing tactic was effective!
Freezing couldnât kill them instantly, though!
With patience, they would die naturally in three to five days!
For now, it was critical not to wait for their death to extract their Demon Cores!
While frozen, they could eliminate the spiders and extract the Demon Cores from their heads!
As for the spider webs, they would wait until the spiders died before unraveling the freeze to collect them!
At Su Changâanâs command, everyone participating in the task unsheathed their swords, targeting not the spidersâ limbs but extracting the Demon Cores!
Once the Demon Cores were removed, they could swiftly deliver a fatal strike and store the spider corpses in their Storage Bags, ensuring a bountiful harvest!
