The three minstrels never saw the full appearance of the monster emerging from the crack before they died, but Lin Jiang and the others watching from the side saw it clearly.
It was a monster with a pitch-black body, a long slender torso divided into seven segments, each segment bearing a pair of human hands and feet, resembling a headless human centipede when seen from afar.
At the forefront of its body was a gigantic five-meter-diameter doll's head, its face innocent and charming, with a sweet smile.
If one ignored its enormous size and the eerie body connected to its neck, it would look extremely cute, and if sold as a doll, it would definitely be a best-seller.
The doll's eyes were filled with curiosity, instinctively sizing up every stranger around.
If it set its sights on you and you happened to make eye contact, you would start to laugh foolishly like the three minstrels, falling into madness in your smile until you perished.
