Chapter 161
Chapter 161
Warning: Gore
Seeing that Gong Lixin’s movements were limited and that he could only stand still and be beaten, Song Haoxuan made a quick decision and concentrated his ability into the strongest bold of lightning. However, aware of his strong force, Gong Lixin also immediately extracted his majestic internal force from his Dantian.
The pure internal force flowed out of his body, covering him with a thin layer and his feet sunk in the mud was no longer sunk and he adapted to the heavy pressure.
Seeing that the bolt lightning was about to fall on top of his head, he leaned over and rolled on the spot, evading the attack. The lightning struck dirt, leaving a circular, smoky pit.
Although Song Haoran and the others outside the forcefield couldn’t hear the sound inside, they could see their movements. The tight, high-hanging hearts relaxed a little before they launched their abilities more desperately, wanting to break this layer of shackle.
Song Haoxuan failed to attack and released several lightning bolts and fireballs one after another. They were all avoided by Gong Lixin. Seeing Gong Lixin quickly approaching him, he felt anxious and shouted at Zheng Chaohe, “This gravity field has no effect on him. Sh*t! Quickly find another way!”
Before coming here, Song Haoxuan himself also tried Zheng Chaohe’s gravity field. At that time, he was directly crushed to the ground. Forget about dodging and running, it was difficult to even move his finger. Right then, looking at this murderous and freely-moving youth, he once again deeply realized the gap between him and the youth.
The complacency on Zheng Chaohe’s face had long been replaced by anxiety. The heavy pressure of hundreds of kilograms was enough to crush ordinary people to death and crush ability users, but the person in front of him still had the power to dodge and even counterattack. His strength is incredible! If he can’t be stopped, they will definitely die here today.
Not daring to think anymore, Zheng Chaohe turned over and took out a bottle of blue potion stolen from Ningcheng. He quickly poured it into his mouth, then raised his hands and tried his best to increase the pressure on Gong Lixin.
Now that he was closer, Gong Lixin took a hard shot at Song Haoxuan. However, because of the sudden increase of gravity pressure, this wind palm attack mixed with flames and frost missed its mark and passed by Song Haoxuan’s shoulder. But even so, Song Haoxuan groaned, covered his shoulder and showed signs of pain. It seemed that the injury was not light.
“Damn, it’s not enough! Continue to increase the gravity.” Song Haoxuan began to feel frustrated at himself as he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. Was Gong Lixin still even human? If they doubled the gravity, there should be a thousand kilograms? Yet he can still stand even now!
Zheng Chaohe gritted his teeth and drank another bottle of blue potion. They’d stolen three bottles of blue potions and he used two bottles in less than ten minutes. If he didn’t deal with Gong Lixin now, he didn’t know how this would end. The people of Ningcheng outside the forcefield were spitting with rage in their eyes as they rushed to the forcefield, almost as if they had fallen into madness! If the forcefield was shattered, these people should peel their skin and bones!
The gravity force increased again. Gong Lixin gritted his teeth and withstood it. His straight back made for an overwhelming image, as if it would break at any time. He tried to lift his foot, but he failed after a few attempts. His white cheeks turned red and a few green tendons showed their appearance at his temple. Since his rebirth, he had never felt so powerless.
Seeing his difficult situation, Song Haoxuan sneered around the bloody foam in his mouth, raised his hand to summon a lightning bold and fireball one after another and attacked him.
Outside the forcefield, Song Haoran and the others roared together, instantly boosting their strength to the limit. Each brought out their most powerful attack and bombarded the forcefield. The deafening explosion sounded in the town, the birds perched in the mountain forest were frightened and flew to the sky, wandering warily away in a flurry of squawks.
Seeing this situation, several base leaders watching were a little scared. Their movement was so loud, what would they do if zombies were attracted?
“Don’t struggle anymore, a zombie swarm will be attracted and everyone here will die! Instead of trying so hard, you should rush back to Ningcheng as soon as possible and bring out your pharmacist for exchange. As long as we get the pharmacist, Master Song will release Young Master Gong.” A subordinate of Song Haoxuan stood up and shouted. Their mission was originally to control the people of Ningcheng outside the forcefield, but seeing these people’s crazy appearance and amazing strength, who would dare to go up against them?
“It turned out to be going after our pharmacist!” Song Haoran turned back and grinned. A fireball pierced through the man’s chest and his dark red eyes were full of crazy killing intent, “We will never leave Lixin! The zombies are coming? What about it! Everyone will die together!”
Yes! If they can’t save their leader, everyone will just die here together! As the popular saying - our life restarts in 18 years! The people of Ningcheng, who already had red rage eyes, attacked the forcefield even more crazily, making Zheng Chaohe unable to support it and quickly drink another bottle of blue potion. They were originally wanted to use Ningcheng people’s loyalty to Gong Lixin in exchange for that pharmacist, but how could they know that Ningcheng’s people’s loyalty towards Gong Lixin wasn’t so simple! It’s simply fanatical worship and blind obedience! They would rather die than leave! They’ve miscalculated!
Looking at the corpse that suddenly fell, then at the nearly crazed look of Ningcheng’s people. The remaining base leaders had already regretted until their intestines became twisted. They shouldn’t have crossed such muddy water! Ningcheng’s bone was harder than crystal nucleus and they would not collapse without using all their teeth to take a vicious bite! Song Haoxuan originally vowed that he could handle Gong Lixin in five minutes, but it was almost half and hour now. After lightning and fire fired off, Gong Lixin was still standing upright with only a few holes in his clothes and some scorched, black hair, but no trace of serious injuries could be seen.
Keep fighting! Once Zheng Chaohe can’t support the gravity field, the battle could be reserved in minutes!
Thinking of it like that, the chiefs stared at each other and, with a wave of their hands, they were ready to take their subordinates out of this land. However, before they could even take a few steps, the pale faced person that had been frightened before turned even paler. The person turned towards Song Haoran and ran.
It turned out that, some time ago, this vigorous battle attracted the zombies hidden deep in Wucheng. They had climbed over the walls and roofs of the two and were densely packed. Their fierce, animal-like eyes stared at the group of ability users with hungry eyes as saliva flowed out of their large mouth, looking impossibly hungry.
For them, this group of not-so-low-level powers was a rare meal. The power of the ability user filled the air with a rich aroma and caused them to move their fingers in hunger.
Seeing these ability users wanting to run away, they waved their sharp nails and rushed over to them. There were at least a few thousand zombies in the group and most of them were at second or third-level. Although their levels were low, the sheer number of zombies was too high. The group of people who wanted to break through was soon overwhelmed by this group of zombies and was torn into pieces and swallowed into their stomach, leaving only meager traces of blood and flesh.
“Don’t fight anymore! The zombies are here! Let’s break out together!” Several base leaders withdrew towards the people of Ningcheng and suggested to them loudly.
Song Haoran and the others still concentrated their firepower on bombarding the forcefield. Occasionally, they encountered a zombie attacking them and they moved their head to kill it as they ignored the suggestions of the other bases’ personnel. The zombies blocked all sides and there were no top ability users responsible in helping them break through. These people couldn’t help but back up towards the forcefield as they tried their best to kill the zombies.
Ningcheng’s people were really crazy! At this time, they were still thinking of breaking the forcefield to rescue Young Master Gong, instead of trying their best to break out. F**k! Are these people subordinates or braindead fans? If only they knew that Ningcheng’s people were so loyal to Young Master Gong that they wouldn’t agree with Song Haoxuan’s suggestion! Several leaders screamed in their hearts!
In the forcefield, a layer of haze formed by true qi floated around Gong Lixin’s body, preventing any damages caused by lightning and fire. Although he couldn’t move and could only stand and be beaten, but as long as his true qi was not exhausted, he would never fall down. Using their internal force, these ability users were able to fight against him, it was only a matter of time before the situation reversed itself.
However, while he gritted his teeth and suffered abuse, the outside world suddenly changed. A dense crowd of zombies surrounded the farmland. Everyone was forced to surround the forcefield by the approaching zombies and there was no way to break through. But his friends didn’t think about self-preservation and still attempted to break the forcefield. This situation was very critical.
Song Haoxuan also saw the situation outside and wanted to beat Gong Lixin to death, to control the other party, but a deep murderous thought flooded into his mind. Good, very good! If everyone outside was dead, even if he killed Gong Lixin, then there would be no proof of his death and the people of Ningcheng who had no more leader would be his for the taking! The leaders of the other bases would’ve also been killed. Country C would then be Song family’s bases alone. The food of Country C, the talents of Country C and all the materials of Country C would all belong to his Song family’s base! As long as he and Zheng Chaohe stayed inside the field, they could leave safely when the zombie tide retreated!
Thinking like that, Song Haoran’s violet and red eyes burst with a monstrous and murderous aura. He raised his hands and began to concentrate his ultimate attack – Nine Heavens Thunder. The temperature was rising and the smell of smoke from the collision of lightning and fire filled the air. Balls of fire entangled with flashes of lightning and hung densely over Gong Lixin’s head. If all these fire thunders fell, what would be waiting for Gong Lixin would be nothing but crushed bones.
Gong Lixin lowered his head. His dark eyes focused as a dark haze slipped out and the true qi that floated around his body gradually thickened, blurring his figure. However, Song Haoxuan, who was brewing a big move, and Zheng Chaohe, who was concentrating on supporting the forcefield, had not noticed this change.
Soon, after the Nine Heavens Thunder was formed, the pressure in the air made Gong Lixin slightly bend his straight back. Song Haoxuan smiled proudly. His arm fell and he threw all the fire thunder towards the youth.
A fire and thunder rain crackled down, filling the space with huge and terrifying lightning and covering the figure of the youth with a dense rain of fire and thunder, making him unable to be seen. Outside the forcefield, Song Haoran, He Jin and Dou Heng almost went mad. All the different coloured eyes changed into blood red colours. They all unscrewed bottles of blue potion and drank their fill, completely ignoring the zombies.
Fortunately, Jin Shanghui arrived in time. He wandered around them and covered them, otherwise the people of NIngcheng would have fallen, seriously injured. Seeing their attacks not working, the people of Ningcheng automatically began to rotate: a group attacked the forcefield and a group fought agains the zombies, which greatly ease the pressure of the other base’s ability users.
In the forcefield, the sky filled with fire and lightning gradually dissipated and the bombardment left a scorched field. Gong Lixin’s straight figure was now half-kneeling as his hands supported his body with difficulty and his breath came heavy. It was not difficult to hear from his broken breath that he had reached the limit and would fall in minutes.
Song Haoxuan lifted himself up and walked over to him with an enthusiastic smile. The youth who knocked him to the bottom of the mud with a single stroke back in the past, was finally crawling at his feet today. With only the smallest lightning strike straight to the other party’s heart and the biggest enemy in his life will fall!
The smile at the corner of Song Haoxuan’s mouth became deeper. He stopped next to Gong Lixin, quietly admiring his pale and weak form with a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth. Lifting his palm full of sparks, he knew the other would be killed.
Gong Lixin’s slightly closed eyes opened abruptly. Where did the bright, star-like eyes have any sign of weakness? He grabbed Song Haoxuan’s closest ankle and the extremely low temperature condensing in the palm of his for a long time instantly froze his opponent’s foot into a popsicle before crushing it into pieces.
“Ah!” Song Haoxuan screamed loudly as his body fell forward involuntarily.
Gong Lixin had already expected everything and his five fingers came together to form a knife and pierce through the chest that actively fell over him. A living, beating heart was held fiercely in the youth’s five fingers as it protruded out of the other’s chest cavity. The young man exerted a little force and the other’s heart made a squelching sound before turning into mud.
They had thought they had won the winning ticket already, but didn’t think that they would be defeated within a few seconds. Zheng Chaohe was shocked and disturbed. Under this instability, the gravity exerting on the youth suddenly failed and the forcefield began to flicker, showing signs of collapse.
Zheng Chaohe was shocked in his heart, but quickly began to use his ability to apply the gravity field again, but Gong Lixin didn’t give him the opportunity. When the gravity failed, he moved like lightning and, with a palm full of wind, shot him in the face. Blood and brain matter splashed all over and Zheng Chaohe’s headless body stood frozen for a few second before it slowly fell.
Gong Lixin held a black crystal nucleus the size of a pigeon’s egg that he got from inside the other’s skull and smiled coldly. He had long been curious about the infamous ‘brain eater’ Zheng Chaohe and always wanted to crack open his brain to see the other’s space crystal nucleus, and he finally got his wish today!
CrazedCookies: I didn’t want you all to hang from the cliff for too long. So here’s another chapter! Also, fair warning, but the upcoming chapters contain many cliffs.
I really wish Zheng Chaohe and Song Haoxuan was alive just 5 or 10 minutes longer, just for them to realize how f***ked they were. *sigh*
