Free Web NovelChapter 550: Chapter 537: Blasting Wang Duan
In the darkness, a ferocious voice emerged in the room; it was a colossal and blasphemous monster. Its appearance resembled that of both a primate and an insect; its skin hung loosely, and on its wrinkled head were vestiges of degenerated eyes, with a skull that swayed like someone inebriated. Its forelimbs extended outwards, boasting large, open claws. Though its face bore no expression, a cruel and vicious aura emanated from its entire being.
Void Ghost.
Void Ghosts are solitary predators, naturally possessing the ability to access higher or lower dimensions. Utilizing this ability, they are able to acquire food, evade enemies, and travel rapidly.
They can easily spy and monitor lower creatures through dimensional rifts. Their favorite hunting method involves appearing in a closed environment when external witness is avoided, and when their chosen prey cannot easily escape. Nobody knows how these predators select their prey.
There is only one terrifying aspect: these are space-ignorant monsters. In short bursts of time, even if the prey escapes to another dimension, the Void Ghost can enter and slaughter it to death.
This monster had already entered the Golden Tier, its aura spreading out like hot oil poured over a body, making Yan Xiu restless.
Not just due to its power, but more so because of the appearance of the Void Ghost; this is a being without defined facial features, its cheeks full of creased flesh seeming to cover any semblance of feature yet making its form even more horrifying, causing breathing to become somewhat labored.
Yan Xiu stood dazed to the side, utterly unable to control his terror. At this moment, how could he look anything like a local tyrant; he was more like a girl abducted to the mountains, thoroughly terrified by everything before him.
What kind of person is Chen Feng?
In his eyes, the other merely placed his hand on Li Hongyi’s corpse, and immediately after, the flesh and blood began to wither, followed by the emergence of this terrifying monster.
Chen Feng is not best at hand-to-hand combat; for a Summoner, commanding a battle is his strongest skill.
Eliminating Li Hongyi undoubtedly alerted several other powers. Li Hongyi and his upper echelon being slaughtered was something impossible to conceal.
Moreover, Chen Feng never intended to hide this; when he beheaded Li Hongyi with a thunderous strike, he had anticipated this situation might occur. When the soldiers come, they will be halted. In the face of absolute power, no conspiracy holds any significance.
Why did Wang Duan break in? He simply wanted to lift the veil to see what exactly transpired inside. frёewebηovel.cѳm
Yet he, along with Shi Xiong behind him, could never imagine Li Hongyi was already dead, and inside was a true Demon far scarier than the King of the Sea Curtain!
Chen Feng’s eyes flashed with a glimmer of blood; at the outset of holding grip here, everything needed to start anew. If Wang Duan were allowed to break in today, his momentum would already lag.
Might as well eliminate him directly, even if it means hostility with Shi Xiong, it could still serve as a warning to the tigers, prompting the other factions not to act rashly.
As for alliances, this is simply impossible. Chen Feng understands the ugliness of human nature; if enough strength is displayed, who would want to be at the forefront charging when several factions strike?
Wang Duan’s momentum was fierce, already on the verge of breaking through to the Golden Tier. At this point, facing such a terrifying enemy, far from showing any timidity, he advanced in the face of difficulty, his momentum actually surpassing its previous level.
He moved, without needing to take personal action, the White Tiger apparition wrapped around him, rushing forward indiscriminately. Though it seemed slow, it was actually swift, forming a screen of light like a storm, and in a moment, it advanced tens of meters.
And at this moment, the wall of the villa suddenly cracked, followed by an ugly silhouette suddenly appearing, lunging toward Wang Duan!
"In..."
The Void Ghost muttered some intricate phrases that no one could comprehend, but it didn’t matter. What mattered was that it charged like a ferocious ghost suppressed for countless years before a Buddha, its mere appearance causing waves of resentment to emerge around, unsettling the mind.
Skeleton Warriors are fearsome, zombie corpses terrifying, but compared to a Void Ghost, these are small fare; though a Void Ghost is not considered an Undead Creature, its form is a hundred times uglier than a rotting corpse, especially its wrinkled cheek, greatly amplifying the human fear threshold!
The Void Ghost rushed forward, without any extravagant moves, merely swinging its hand, slamming toward the tiger’s head.
The palm, exceedingly hard, was imbued with pure destructive energy; when swung, it reached the White Tiger’s head in just an instant.
Wang Duan appeared to suffer an unstoppable force, the tiger’s mouth fissured, with blood cracking open, while the bones in his arms crackled, his entire body knocked backward repeatedly by the Void Ghost’s palm, retreating over a dozen meters before barely regaining his stance.
"What? What is this monster, its strength is this formidable?" Just a moment ago, Wang Duan was still in a refined gentleman’s demeanor, but now, the tiger’s mouth had burst open, and he retreated over a dozen steps, appearing exceedingly wretched.
Wang Duan was utterly astonished; how could he have expected such a god-defying monster to be lurking within the villa, capable of forcing him to this extent with just its physical form.
Yet Wang Duan would not sit idly by; his gaze grew sinister, ever searching for an opportunity, an opportunity to break through his boundary. At this point, though the pressure on him doubled, as long as he could endure, he felt certain he could break through limits and reach his anticipated realm.
Moreover, he didn’t lack a backup plan; the Flaming General was also in the corner, merely acting as the pathfinder. If he encountered danger, his big brother would surely save him.
With such support, Wang Duan dared to attend the banquet alone, fearlessly charging into Li Hongyi’s stronghold, even insulting those professionals who tried to block him.
Without any worries, Wang Duan roared with confidence, and the White Tiger around him began to converge. Not only that, but on the other side of the tiger’s head, there was a tremor, and before long, a head emitting more golden light appeared suddenly.
One white, one gold.
The two tiger heads exuded an invincible aura. Wang Duan leaped forward, spreading his tiger claws, swiping at the Void Ghost.
"Slash!"
A tearing sound rang out as terrifying gouges appeared on its chest, but what flowed out wasn’t red blood, but a black corrosive liquid full of stench. Wang Duan just took a whiff and felt dizzy, causing his charging figure to pause for a few seconds.
The Void Ghost, injured, roared upward. Perhaps in fury, its body trembled, and an incredible scene unfolded—as if blurred, and then, in the next second, it vanished completely from the ground.
Wang Duan widened his eyes, unsure how the other had achieved this, but a nameless fear seized him, as though walking through the forest, being locked onto by a giant python, causing his body to tremble slightly.
He opened his mouth, his body shaking uncontrollably, his previous pride and aura as a strong person gone, and with all his strength, he cried loudly into the distance: "Help..."
Wang Duan’s voice was abruptly cut off, for his neck was suddenly grasped, and it wasn’t someone else strangling him, but the very Void Ghost that had vanished!
The Void Ghost possessed the ability to traverse space, enabling it to execute instantaneous moves in a short time. This was also the reason it instilled fear in countless beings.
At this moment, blood was still dripping from the Void Ghost’s chest. Perhaps in rage, it lifted Wang Duan, slamming him into the ground fiercely. With a booming sound, Wang Duan’s spine struck the floor, causing a spider-web-like crack, his back arching in pain like a prawn, blood gushing from his mouth...
"Crack!"
The twin tiger phantom that Wang Duan had summoned shattered like paper, dispersing into the air.
His eyes widened in utter shock. The tiger phantom was his protective shield, never broken since his awakening. Although just a phantom, it was incomparably tough, exceeding even titanium alloy in hardness. How could it break so easily?
But before he could shout in surprise, the Void Ghost’s other hand lifted high, its wrinkled cheeks staring at Wang Duan, shattering his spirit with dread!
"You dare! Let him go!" At that moment, an angry shout came from afar.
Though it was already midnight, suddenly a fiery red burst on the horizon, like a falling sun, making one feel insignificant at once.
In the entire Gorge Gate, none but Shi Xiong could cause such momentum. Wang Duan also heard his scolding, and his pounding heart finally calmed a bit.
As long as Shi Xiong appeared, his life would be secure.
"You..."
Wang Duan had just let out a breath when the Void Ghost roared and then brought its raised fist down fiercely, like a ten-thousand-ton boulder, not only shattering his protective energy but also rupturing his internal organs, blood pouring from nine orifices. The next moment, it released its arm, lifting him up, then smashing down with both fists. Instantly, as if bursting an egg, Wang Duan’s entire body exploded into bits of flesh, scattered all over the ground.
Silence engulfed the surroundings.
Everyone was stunned by this scene. Shi Xiong’s most capable deputy, one of the most likely to reach the Golden Tier in the entire Gorge Gate, was smashed to pieces, strewn across the ground!
This...
was Chen Feng’s will.
In an era where might makes right, he used his fists to tell everyone that even though he was a newcomer, his dignity was not to be underestimated. Whoever provoked him faced only one outcome—death!
And at this moment, with Wang Duan brutally destroyed, it signaled that a new day had dawned over the entire Gorge Gate...
