Chapter 821: Chapter 324: The Current "Shenxiao Envoy" Has Become Your Third Main Profession!
"Go!"
Fang Qingyu shouted in a low voice.
Shenxiao instantly enveloped his entire body, and an invisible force lifted him up.
Jiang Wei moved swiftly as well.
With a light tap on the cold cement ground, she turned into a flowing white shadow of fire.
Silently and soundlessly, she soared into the sky.
Following closely behind Fang Qingyu, they dashed towards the west side cooling tower area.
The two figures were like lightning tearing through the night sky, moving so fast they left only faint afterimages in the air.
In just a few breaths, they landed like meteors.
Accurately piercing through the invisible force field barrier pre-established by Lu Jiuyuan, landing steadily under the enormous shadow of the cooling tower.
The scene before him immediately made Fang Qingyu frown slightly.
The location where the Life Ghost fluctuations appeared was quite tricky.
It happened to encompass a corner of the massive base of the cooling tower.
This cooling tower is one of the core facilities of the plant, a steel giant structure tens of meters high emitting a low hum, its body covered with thick pipes and condensed water droplets, radiating scorching heat waves.
Within the force field, the space was isolated by an invisible barrier.
No matter what happened inside, the outside world was unaffected.
However... the trouble was, if something went wrong with the cooling tower.
Those inside the force field would suffer greatly.
After all, no one knew if they could withstand an explosion or leak should the cooling tower fail.
"Protect the tower!"
Fang Qingyu’s voice rang out.
Without much explanation.
And just as Fang Qingyu spoke, Chu Kuanglan and the others had already moved into action.
As soon as they entered the force field, they understood the situation.
Knowing their task was simply to guard the cooling tower.
Fang Qingyu and Jiang Wei stood side by side.
Positioned in front of the source of the most intense fluctuations.
The air rippled violently like water, emitting a faint humming sound.
The intensity of those fluctuations... had reached Tier Three!
"Good luck, an auspicious beginning."
Fang Qingyu’s Melted Gold pupils locked onto the center of the spatial ripples, his tone calm, revealing no hint of emotion.
Encountering a Tier Three Life Ghost right off the bat, their luck was truly unmatched.
But for Fang Qingyu.
Any Life Ghost, regardless of tier, as long as it hadn’t been defeated before, was a good Life Ghost.
Just as his words fell...
Whoosh!
A "hand" covered in sticky blackish keratinistic digits suddenly reached out from the center of the fluctuations.
This hand was abnormally large, its skin covered in writhing dark purple vein-like patterns.
The moment it emerged, an icy, sinister force field spread wide.
The surrounding temperature plummeted rapidly.
"Here it comes!"
Jiang Wei softly reminded.
Pure white flames silently erupted around her.
And just as the Life Ghost’s hand fully revealed its aura.
Fang Qingyu stepped forward abruptly, reaching out his right hand.
His fingers, covered in dark golden scales and entwined in Shenxiao Thunder, gripped the wrist of the emerging Life Ghost.
"Come out for me!"
Fang Qingyu shouted in a low voice, merging strength with his entire body, erupting all at once.
His arm muscles bulged, pulling fiercely as if moving a mountain.
Boom!!!
The space seemed to tear!
Accompanied by a grating screech that set one’s teeth on edge.
A massive shadow was forcefully dragged out from the spatial ripples by Fang Qingyu.
It was an extraordinarily bizarre-looking Life Ghost.
It appeared to be composed of countless twisted black vines and decaying spiral shells, roughly three meters tall. Its lower half consisted of dozens of writhing, spear-like black tendrils that supported its bloated upper body.
The upper body was shielded with a spiral shell covered in moss and water stains.
Several arms, similar to the first, protruded from gaps in the shell, frantically flailing and clawing.
The top of the shell split open to reveal a whirlpool-like mouth lined with sharp teeth.
Being forcibly dragged out, the Life Ghost was instantly enraged.
Its numerous arms madly clawing at Fang Qingyu, while the tendrils of its lower half shot out like poisonous snakes, aiming straight for Fang Qingyu’s lower body.
From its mouth spewed a thick, dark green toxic mist.
With a pungent sweet acrid odor, it spread instantly.
"Careful."
Jiang Wei barked sharply, making hand seals, the pure white flames in front of her rapidly coalescing into a massive wall of flame.
Like a purifying holy light.
It held back the encroaching dark green toxic mist, producing a sizzling sound as it burned, quickly dissipating the mist.
At the same time.
Faced with the grasping arms and lunging tendrils.
Fang Qingyu exerted force in his right hand gripping the Life Ghost’s wrist, twisting fiercely.
Crack, the bone-breaking sound was hair-raising as the arm was instantly twisted into a pretzel shape!
Simultaneously, Fang Qingyu’s left fist shot forward like a cannonball.
Shenxiao Thunder converged and compressed maniacally on the fist’s edge.
With a deep dragon’s roar, he struck the Life Ghost’s chest where the shell was the thickest with a no-nonsense punch.
Boom——!!!
The blinding golden thunder instantly pierced the thick shell.
Countless shattered shell fragments mixed with dark green fetid liquid sprayed like explosive shrapnel.
The Life Ghost’s massive body stiffened abruptly.
A large, gaping hole was punched clean through its chest.
A shrill scream erupted from its mouth.
But the Tier Three Life Ghost’s vitality was extraordinarily tenacious, even with such a severe injury, it did not perish, and the remaining arms and tendrils attacked Fang Qingyu more ferociously.
And this was only the beginning of the night.
...
City Center of Injustice.
Top floor of the Desolate Bone Corps headquarters building.
The atmosphere inside the top-floor conference room was oppressive like the stillness before a storm.
Sitting around the enormous circular conference table were the core executives of the Desolate Bone Corps.
