The man reacted immediately, his body suddenly sinking as he forcefully dodged to the side.
however.
The explosion speed of the pirated Ling Lei is far greater than that of the genuine Ling Lei.
"Boom boom boom boom—!!"
A series of explosions rang out in the rainy night.
A dozen or so spiritual lightning bolts detonated simultaneously at extremely close range, and flames and shockwaves instantly engulfed the man.
Although he carried a protective magical artifact with him, a ray of spiritual light appeared, absorbing most of the damage for him.
Even so, he was still blown to pieces, his breathing disordered, and his consciousness blurred.
Before the aftershocks of the explosion had completely dissipated, he pulled himself out of the smoke and dust.
At the same time.
Zhu Que seized the opportunity, mobilized the spiritual energy within his body, and an ice flame sword rapidly condensed in front of him.
This Ice Flame Sword is enormous, more than ten times the size of an ordinary Ice Flame Sword.
"Whoosh—!"
With a thought, Zhu Que unleashed his massive ice-flame sword, tearing through the rain and hurtling out.
"Too slow!"
The man grinned maliciously, forcibly steadying himself as he rapidly formed hand seals and chanted incantations.
"Golden罡 Suppressing Domain Shield!"
"scandium!"
A thick golden shield unfolded in front of him, attempting to block the massive ice-flame sword that was hurtling towards him.
however.
Just moments before the giant ice-flame sword struck the golden shield.
Zhu Que also let out a sinister laugh.
The next instant, the enormous ice flame sword that was supposed to strike the golden shield suddenly shattered in mid-air and split in two!
Two streams of icy flames, like flowing water, grazed the edge of the golden shield and bypassed it.
"Snap—!!"
Two streams of icy flames instantly froze his head.
The extreme cold penetrated to the bone marrow, and even consciousness became sluggish.
Oh no!
The man's eyes changed instantly, and the moment the thought crossed his mind, the frozen ice flames exploded.
"Bang!!!"
The man was engulfed in flames from the explosion.
at the same time.
Zhu Que conjured one ice-flame sword after another, which shot continuously toward the center of the explosion.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh—"
"Bang bang bang bang!!"
The sounds of ice and flames exploding were incessant.
Zhu Que had no idea how long he had been bombarding the area.
He stopped moving, panting heavily, when the spiritual energy of the "Spirit Storage Ring" was completely drained.
Soon, the strong winds swept away the smoke and dust, and the torrential rain extinguished the flames.
Zhu Que walked over.
Upon entering the deep pit, they saw the man lying there, barely alive, his body mangled and broken, his defensive magical artifact long since destroyed.
He stared intently at Zhu Que, his eyes filled with resentment and bitterness.
"Another friend has died—you bunch of beasts."
Zhu Que's voice was hoarse as he punched the man, smashing his head open like a watermelon.
"Whoosh—"
Zhu Que stood in the torrential rain, panting heavily, and turned to walk towards the edge of the cliff.
It was pitch black below, and nothing could be seen at all; Song Wugui's corpse was nowhere to be seen.
"—Brother Song, we can't give you a proper burial right now. May you rest in peace."
Zhu Que sighed and left the mountain road in the pouring rain.
Night fell, and a torrential downpour began.
His phone was broken and could no longer be used.
Even though he could continue using it, he didn't dare contact anyone for the time being, including Ayako.
Because he considered the worst possibility—that Boss Meng had already betrayed him, and whether Xiao Cai was an accomplice or coerced, it was unsafe for her to contact him.
Cave warehouse.
When Zhu Que pushed open the door and entered.
The little ghost immediately noticed his abnormality.
Although the torrential rain had washed away the bloodstains from his body, he still smelled strongly of blood.
"Big brother, what's wrong?"
Rabbit came closer, her little face full of worry.
"I'm fine—"
Zhu Que shook his head, then entered the Time Sequence Chamber, replenishing the depleted spiritual energy in his dantian and sea of qi while recovering from the injuries to his body.
After a while.
Once his spiritual energy had been replenished to about 80-90%, he left the Time Sequence Container.
He surveyed the entire cave warehouse, lost in thought.
Xiao Cai knew he was hiding here.
If she and Boss Meng really sold him out, the next wave of pursuers could come knocking on their door at any time.
Even so, this place, where he had laid defensive traps, was temporarily the safest place.
Zhu Que's gaze darkened slightly as he quickly considered what to do next.
Finally, a figure appeared in his mind—Su Zhen.
In this situation, the only people who truly have the ability, status, and standing to help him are the police.
The only police officer he knew and trusted was Su Zhen.
Thinking about this...
Zhu Que replicated an image recording artifact, and after some simple adjustments, entered the adjacent biological laboratory.
He planned to record all of this as evidence to expose the Black Lotus Guild's illegal biological experiments, thus giving Su Zhen a reason to protect him.
however.
It was while he was filming the biological laboratory.
When the image artifact shone on the rock wall, sweeping over the dense, strange patterns and obscure incantations, Zhu Que's movements paused slightly.
"Wait! These patterns?"
At that moment, Zhu Que suddenly remembered.
These patterns and incantations were remarkably similar to those Sun Zheng had carved; while not exactly identical, they were extremely close.
"No wonder the pattern Sun Zheng drew looked familiar that day; I'd seen it before in this cave!"
"Is Sun Zheng also connected to this biological laboratory?"
Zhu Que recalled Sun Zheng recounting his past—
During his childhood, his family was a wealthy fourth-class family, but after his parents committed suicide, he was relegated to the fifth class.
"Is it possible that Sun Zheng was also one of the test subjects here, but he managed to escape?"
Zhu Que had a sudden thought. He carefully photographed the patterns and incantations, and then hurriedly left the cave warehouse.
The sixth landfill.
The torrential rain lasted for most of the year, and the entire waste and debris area was submerged in water.
Inside the small room.
Sun Zheng lay on the top bunk of the double bed, his hands behind his head, staring blankly at the ceiling, humming a song.
suddenly.
Zhu Que lifted the curtain and walked in.
"Hey, Zhu Que? What brings you back?"
"Brother Sun, you have to answer one question for me."
Zhu Que didn't exchange pleasantries. Standing in the puddles, he stared directly at Sun Zheng, his tone serious.
"What's the problem?" Sun Zheng was taken aback.
"Who taught you all those magic array concepts you learned as a child?"
"My parents taught me that, so what?"
"I saw some strange patterns and incantations in a cave, which are very similar to the ones you drew, but they were left by someone more than ten years ago."
"Can I take a look?"
"Look."
Zhu Que activated the imaging artifact and showed Sun Zheng the strange patterns and incantations on the rock wall that he had photographed.
"This is... an evolved formation-breaking technique?"
Sun Zheng's eyes widened slightly, and he blurted out an unfamiliar term. He looked up in shock and asked, "Where is this place?"
"That's a biological laboratory."
"Biology—laboratory?"
Sun Zheng's expression stiffened, as if he had remembered something, and he asked urgently, "Where is that biology lab?"
"A warehouse in a cave on the southwestern outskirts of the city."
"Can you take me to see it?"
"Can."
Zhu Que originally intended to take Sun Zheng with him.
He has now completely broken ties with the Black Lotus Guild.
Since that's the case, rather than passively taking a beating, we should try our best to find out the secrets hidden by the Black Lotus Guild.
And Sun Zheng is very likely the key to unlocking the secret!
The two left the garbage dump.
Sun Zheng walked very slowly, with a limp, and every step seemed difficult.
Zhu Que simply carried him on his back and hurried through the torrential rain in the dead of night, heading straight for the cave warehouse.
"Brother Sun, there are two skeletons in that biology lab. Could they be your parents'?"
"Impossible, my parents committed suicide."
Sun Zheng shook his head and said, "I collected their bodies myself, and I watched them cremated and buried with my own eyes."
"Could he be one of your parents' colleagues?"
"That's impossible. My parents are both full-time teachers. They couldn't possibly have any colleagues in a biology lab."
soon.
Zhu Que led Sun Zheng to the cave warehouse.
Sun Zheng was startled by the little ghosts, but he didn't ask any further questions.
"This is it."
Zhu Que led him into the biology lab and pointed to the rock wall.
"That's right————"
Sun Zheng stared at the patterns and incantations on the rock wall and murmured, "That's right, these are the Evolutionary Formation-Breaking Techniques—why are there Evolutionary Formation-Breaking Techniques here?"
"What is the Evolutionary Formation Breaking Technique?" Zhu Que asked.
"That's our family's secret method for breaking formations—"
Sun Zheng stared blankly at the rock wall and the layout of the laboratory. "Moreover, the layout here is a bit strange—"
talking.
He reached out and picked up a stick, then quickly began to draw on the ground.
Zhu Que couldn't understand what he was drawing.
But he could sense that a secret of the Black Lotus Guild was about to be revealed by Sun Zheng.
Just then.
A little ghost hurriedly floated in, crying out in a hoarse voice, "Big brother! Someone's here!"
