Chapter 4047
Just as the technique appeared in Zi Chen's mind, the energy in his body started to flow according to a certain path.
The change happened very quickly.
The energy flowed according to the path, and the energy that Zi Chen had devoured by Cardermon returned to Zi Chen's body.
It was like returning.
At the same time, the technique that Zi Chen was using started to devour the energy that belonged to Cardermon.
An even more powerful devouring power, with a hint of savagery, started to devour Cardermon's energy that was close to him.
It was like being crushed.
Such a change caused Cardermon to cry out in shock, and there was fear in his eyes. His devouring power was no longer effective.
Moreover, the energy in his body was also being devoured by Zi Chen uncontrollably.
Zi Chen stood there without moving, and there was a blank look in his eyes, as if he was subconsciously controlling the energy.
The scene in front of him seemed to have happened somewhere before, and it gave him a familiar feeling.
It was as if he had experienced the same thing at some point in time.
It was just that he couldn't remember when and where it had happened.
Cardermon's energy was rapidly depleting, and he was about to let go of his hand and retreat in fear. Right now, he didn't have the heart to devour, and he only wanted to save his life.
Suddenly, a powerful Devouring Power erupted from Hope's body, who was being held in his hand.
Cardermon's retreating body stopped, and he stood there without moving like a statue, and the powerful energy in his body was continuously devouring Zi Chen and Hope.
Such a change caused the expressions of the people in the distance to change greatly, and they didn't know what to do.
The battle in the surroundings stopped, and everyone looked over, not knowing what had happened.
Because in their perception, the one who was devouring right now wasn't Cardermon, but Zi Chen.
Why was Zi Chen able to devour Cardermon's energy?
Qing Yi, who was being pulled back by Yi Bufan, saw this scene, but she didn't know whether to be happy or worried.
Could it be that Zi Chen was going to follow in Cardermon's footsteps and become a ghost?
"What are you waiting for, hurry up and leave, once Zi Chen becomes a ghost, he will kill everyone!"
Yi Bufan reacted, and pulled Qing Yi back again.
Qing Yi didn't move. She stood there, staring blankly at Zi Chen.
If she was really going to die here today, she was willing to accept the fact that she was going to die at the hands of Zi Chen.
The devouring power emitted from Zi Chen's body was extremely powerful. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to suppress Carmond's devouring power.
Soon, under the devouring of both him and hope, Cardermon stopped breathing. The hand that was tightly gripping Zi Chen's neck had no choice but to let go.
Zi Chen stood there motionless.
Hope fell to the ground. Its whole body was emitting a black light, and streams of Devouring Power were circulating around its body.
For some reason, it had also awakened its devouring power, and the aura it released was very strong.
Compared to Cardermon who had turned into a ghost, the current Hope seemed more like a ghost.
Zi Chen still stood there without moving, but the powerful energy around his body made others not dare to approach him.
At this moment, many images appeared in Zi Chen's mind. He didn't know if these images were real or just illusions.
Among them, a woman asked him if he had mastered the Dark Ghost Devouring Soul Technique. However, the voice kept drifting, and it was mixed with other voices.
Li Haocheng looked at the motionless Zi Chen, and after hesitating for a while, he shouted.
Hearing this shout, Zi Chen came back to his senses.
All the images and voices in his mind disappeared, and he regained his consciousness.
He saw the dead Cardermon, then looked at his own hands, and then at his own body.
In a short period of time, he knew what had happened.
He had awakened the Dark Ghost Devouring Soul Technique at the crucial moment, and devoured Cardermon instead.
As for how he awakened it, or was it an epiphany, Zi Chen guessed that it was caused by another life and death crisis.
Hope came in front of Zi Chen, and raised its head to look at Zi Chen carefully. Its eyes seemed to be filled with expectation.
Zi Chen waved his hand, indicating for Hope to come up.
The expectation in Hope's eyes turned into disappointment, and it jumped onto Zi Chen's shoulder.
Zi Chen turned around, and looked at the others.
Everyone subconsciously stepped back. Cardermon had almost invincible strength, but he was still devoured by Zi Chen.
In that case, was Zi Chen going to start devouring others just like Cardermon?
Zi Chen's gaze swept across everyone's faces, and he saw everyone's fear and anxiety.
At the same time, he also knew why Cardermon would do such a crazy thing. It was because after he had mastered the power of devouring, a strong thought appeared in his mind. That thought was to devour.
To devour everyone in front of him.
It was like a beggar who had been hungry for a long time, and saw a table full of food.
Or a traveler in the desert who saw a clear pool of water.
This kind of attraction was extremely strong, and it constantly attacked his soul.
Even Zi Chen's breathing became hurried at this moment.
If it wasn't for his extremely high self-control, he might have followed in Cardermon's footsteps.
After retracting his gaze, Zi Chen turned around, squatted down, and searched the dead Cardermon's body.
Soon, he found the golden armor piece, and he held it in his hand.
Everyone's heart skipped a beat.
Was Zi Chen going to announce that he was the leader?
The previous battle had already shattered the buildings here, so there were many people watching from afar.
"You're free."
Zi Chen said such a sentence, and his expression gradually calmed down.
At the same time, he activated the black devouring power, and the towering wall that originally appeared fell back into the ground.
Everyone was stunned at first, and then they cheered.
After that, they began to flee in all directions. No one was willing to stay here, because if they stayed here, they might be devoured.
Those awakened ones looked at Zi Chen in disbelief.
Suddenly, Zi Chen moved. He quickly rushed forward, and a weapon appeared in his hand. It was a bone knife, and he slashed forward.
Pfft!
The second Wraith fell, and its body was almost cut in half.
Previously, it was still thinking of sneaking away.
Those awakened ones who were about to leave were stunned again. They stood there, not daring to move.
"Obtaining the power of devouring isn't necessarily a bad thing, but as long as you suppress the Devouring Heart and don't devour humans, you shouldn't become Wraith."
Zi Chen looked at the awakened ones around, and said indifferently, "From now on, all of you will follow me!"
At this moment, the bone knife in Zi Chen's hand was still dripping with blood.
Those awakened ones who possessed the power of devouring couldn't help but change their expressions when they heard that.
