Chapter 294 Echo
The sound grew louder and louder, as if thunder in the sky was approaching rapidly.
Boom!
The moment the sound came from the stone hall, it was like a thunderclap exploding above everyone's heads. Zhou Wen only felt his ears buzzing and his head seemed to be about to split open. Blood oozed from his eyes, nose, ears and mouth, and he could not hear anything for a while.
The situation of the others was not much better than Zhou Wen's. Some of Jiuye and his companions had already vomited blood, and even their companion pets were affected. Their faces turned pale, and some of their companion pets were obviously injured.
But Jiuye and the others covered their ears and did not move, still standing there motionless.
Seeing this, Zhou Wen didn't dare to move anymore. The voice was too weird. It was just a vibration above his head, which almost made him faint. God knew what the consequences would be if he continued to speak.
Zhou Wen had already thought of retreating to the other side of the stone beam. The other side of the stone beam seemed to be unaffected. As long as he retreated to the other side of the stone beam and shouted loudly, he could use that terrifying sound to easily get rid of Jiu Ye and the others.
Jiu Ye had been staring at Zhou Wen and the other two. When he saw the change in Zhou Wen's eyes, he seemed to have guessed something and said something to Zhou Wen, but no sound came out.
Zhou Wen carefully deciphered the words for a moment and realized that Jiuye was saying, "Don't move. Air movement can also cause an echo. We'll all die if we can run."
Zhou Wen didn't know whether what he said was true or not, but seeing that they didn't seem to have any intention of moving, if they could run, they would have run away long ago.
"It's impossible to stay here forever, right?" Zhou Wen mouthed to Jiuye.
"Wait, in about an hour, the echo will disappear." Jiu Ye said.
Zhou Wen's heart suddenly moved when he heard this. Now Jiuye and the others didn't dare to move, so they could still coexist peacefully. But once Huiyin's restraint on them disappeared, Zhou Wen and the other two might not be a match for Jiuye and the others.
Although Zhou Wen had the banana fan, Jiuye and his men were obviously not weaklings. Even people like Ansheng were knocked down by them. Jiuye and his men should never be underestimated.
Especially Jiu Ye, he had experienced the dimensional storm and even associated with people like Jing Daoxian and Zhang Daotian. He was definitely not just an old man.
"If we don't take care of them now, I'm afraid the three of us will suffer later." Zhou Wen calculated in his mind.
But the three of them were not immune to the harm caused by Huiyin. Now, if they were to deal with Jiuye and the others, it would seem like they were just dealing with themselves.
"It's a pity that Di Ting is still evolving, otherwise Di Ting should have some effect on these echoes." Zhou Wen thought of Di Ting and glanced at the chaotic space. Seeing that it still remained in the state of a stone egg, he didn't know when it would be able to complete its evolution.
"Apart from listening carefully, is there no other way?" Zhou Wen racked his brains for a way to deal with the echo.
Banana Fairy definitely can't do it. She is an offensive companion pet and doesn't have very good defensive capabilities. Now she can't see the enemy, so she can't fight back even if she wants to.
The Dark Doctor is even more useless in this situation. Without an opponent, his abilities cannot be fully utilized.
"The Ghost Bride seems to be of some use. In ghost state, she should not be afraid of sonic attacks." Zhou Wen thought again. Although the Ghost Bride is not afraid of echoes, it is not of much help to Zhou Wen's current situation. The Ghost Bride cannot help them resist the echoes.
"Unless the echo has a direction." Zhou Wen carefully recalled the details of the echo explosion just now, and felt that although they were far away from the stone hall, they did not have an advantage.
The echo seemed to grow louder the farther it got, and they seemed no different from Jiu Ye and the others standing in front of the stone hall.
While Zhou Wen was thinking, he saw Lu Yunxian winking at him and kept saying something, but Zhou Wen was looking at Jiu Ye and the others, so he didn't notice.
Now I noticed Lu Yunxian and quickly figured out from his mouth shape what he said was, "I have a way to resist the echo."
"Can you resist the echo?" Zhou Wen also communicated with Lu Yunxian using lip movements, but unfortunately Lu Yunxian did not have the ability to read lips, so he just kept repeating his words.
Zhou Wen thought about it and felt that Lu Yunxian was a very reliable person. Judging from his appearance, he would not lie.
Zhou Wen hesitated for a moment and tried to walk towards Lu Yunxian. He was not far away from Lu Yunxian, only two or three steps away. When he took this step, he suddenly heard thunder rumbling in the stone hall, which broke out almost instantly.
Boom!
A bolt of lightning exploded, shocking Jiuye and the others so much that they started bleeding from all seven orifices, and even their companion pets were no exception.
However, the three people on Zhou Wen's side were fine. In front of them, there was a very strange companion pet. The companion pet looked like a headless pig. Its body was a round oval with no head or tail, and four hooves underneath. It looked very weird.
But such a seemingly stupid companion pet actually used a strange power fluctuation to resist the terrifying sound waves, preventing Zhou Wen and the other two from being affected by the sound waves.
Zhou Wen's eyes narrowed immediately as he looked towards Jiu Ye and the others. Jiu Ye was already in poor condition, and his face turned even paler when he saw this scene.
"Master Wen, how about we make a deal?" Jiuye said in lip language.
"How do we trade?" Zhou Wen said this directly, which immediately caused thunder to rumble in the stone hall, and then turned into echo waves and exploded above the stone hall.
Bang bang!
Some companion pets were directly knocked to the ground by the shock, and more than a dozen people including Jiuye were bleeding from all seven orifices. Those with weaker abilities had already fallen to the ground.
These sounds triggered more echoes, and thunder rumbled outside the entire stone hall, as if the Thunder God was angry, and the echoes continued to bombard.
Several people on Jiuye's side were shocked to the point of bleeding from all seven orifices, and their lives were unknown. The situation on Zhou Wen's side was also not good. The power of the echo was too strong, and the strange companion pet was trembling and looked like it was about to collapse.
Zhou Wen glanced to the side and saw that the old fellow Jiuye did not retreat but advanced instead, rushing into the stone hall with a sound like thunder.
"Let's go into the stone hall." Zhou Wen had an idea and asked Lu Yun to control the companion pet first and head towards the stone hall.
Zhou Wen originally thought that the sound would be more terrifying when he was close to the stone hall, but when he got outside the stone hall, he found that the farther away from the stone hall, the louder the sound. When he got inside the stone hall, although the echo was still terrifying, it was not as terrifying as when he was outside.
Zhou Wen looked around the stone hall and saw many stone tools inside, most of which were very crude. Jiu Ye was running towards the back door of the stone hall. The horrible echo only made him vomit blood, but failed to kill him.
