The souls were dragged by Malrik into a large pit, in the centre of which was a pillar of fire towering over ten meters high, emitting blue and green light.
What's worth mentioning is that despite the immense size of the fire column, it didn't illuminate the surroundings; instead, it made the space even darker and colder than before.
The souls that were pulled by Malrik and thrown into the pit immediately cried out in pain and despair.
Some souls tried to climb out, but a massive shadow suddenly appeared.
The fire's dim light illuminated the creature, making it look even more terrifying and horrific.
Upon closer inspection, it was a gigantic beetle, more than five meters tall, with veins on its body emitting a blood-red light.
Like spears, it used its sharp legs to drag the souls trying to climb out of the fire pit back into it.
Also, a face would appear on the fire column whenever a soul was pushed into the fire pit.
