Chapter 237: Devour

Wang Zhizhe's grand array, each flicker, pours gentle and massive energy into the Giant Beast Wang Shan's body.

The terrifying gaps erased by "concept" are slowly wriggling and healing at a speed that defies common sense.

"Monster…… these two kids are also monsters!" a Shadow Guard's voice already trembled with sobs.

Their strongest combined attack was "laughingly accepted" by a youth who used the whole space as a formation board; now this youth still uses the power of this forbidden land to heal that even more terrifying giant beast.

What is this? If you can't beat them, join them? No, this is directly turning the whole casino into his home!

"Don't panic!" the leading Shadow Guard forcibly suppressed his fear, but his voice trembled uncontrollably, "He altered the rules, but maintaining this grand array's consumption is absolutely astronomical! He can't last long! We still have a chance!"

"Exactly! He couldn't possibly keep it up!"

"Again! Use the 'Chaos God Curse'! This attack isn't based on physical law, it directly contaminates soul and energy! Let's see how he defends!"

The remaining four Shadow Guards, like drowning men clutching the last straw, once again forcibly activated their dwindling mana.

They no longer pursued ultimate destructive power, but chose the most vicious and eerie attack method.

Four streams of gray-black mist rose from their heavenly caps, carrying countless tiny, nauseating wails and curses, not condensing into a beam but spreading like a virus, instantly diffusing toward the array's core.

Zzz—

The black-gold array runes, upon contact with this gray mist, immediately dimmed, their operation becoming sluggish.

Wang Zhizhe, eyes closed while maintaining the grand array, let out a muffled groan; a thread of black blood seeped from the corner of his mouth, his face instantly turning as pale as paper.

"Brother!" Wang Zhitao looked on, his heart and gallbladder torn apart.

He saw clearly that his brother's array could parse and reconstruct "rules", but what these Shadow Guards released was pure "garbage"! It was energy waste mixed with countless remnant souls, resentments, and vicious curses! The array is like a precision purifier that can filter sand from water, but if you pour a bucket of swill into it, the machine would surely break!

"Damn it!" Li Hu, watching from afar, was also anxious as fire, "These bastards are too sneaky!"

These gray mists, the grand array cannot fully absorb and transform them; forced purification would only increase Wang Zhizhe's burden. They are like a bone-deep ulcer, gradually contaminating the entire array, eroding Wang Zhizhe's mind and spirit.

Just then, Wang Zhitao, who had lain limp on the ground, suddenly had a glint of unusual light in his dull eyes.

He stared fixedly at the gray-black mist spreading everywhere, which even the Shadow Guards themselves could not fully control, his Adam's apple rolling uncontrollably up and down once.

What is that?

Is it poison? Is it a curse?

No……

In his instinctive perception of the "Devouring Origin Tyrant Body", that was clearly…… a tableful of uneaten…… leftovers! Though unsightly in appearance and foul-smelling, …… it's meat!

"Zhitao! What are you doing? Don't act recklessly!" Zhang Mei screamed, seeing Wang Zhitao struggle to his feet.

Li Hu also roared, "Don't touch that thing! You'll die!"

However, Wang Zhitao seemed not to hear, his face even showing a hint of frenzied smile mixed with pain and longing.

"Brother," he shouted toward Wang Zhizhe's direction, grinning with blood on his teeth, "You handle the pot, I…… I'll scrub the cauldron!"

Before his words faded, he lunged forward, throwing himself wholeheartedly into the thickest gray mist!

"He's gone mad!" a Shadow Guard screamed hoarsely, his eyes nearly popping out.

"Is he committing suicide? The impurity of the 'Chaos God Curse' alone would destabilize our own hearts if we touched it, and he's just a Foundation Establishment kid……"

They hadn't finished speaking when they saw a scene they would never forget.

Only saw Wang Zhitao rush into the gray mist, not instantly corroded into a puddle of rotting flesh as they expected, but like a huge sponge thrown into water, frantically sucking the surrounding gray mist into his body!

Ugh—ah—ah—ah—

Painful roars erupted from Wang Zhitao's mouth. His body swelled at visible speed, beneath his skin as if countless black worms were wriggling, blood lines bursting open across his body. From his seven orifices, what flowed out was no longer blood, but that gray-black mist full of ominous aura!

His whole person seemed to have become a vessel bearing all the world's filth, ready to explode at any moment!

"Zhitao!" Wang Zhizhe snapped his eyes open, his eyes full of anxiety.

"Trust me!" Wang Zhitao squeezed out two words amid his painful howl. He forcibly activated the "Devouring Origin Tyrant Body", not for refinement, but with a more savage, primitive means—devour! digest!

His body's energy core, at this moment, was like a high-speed spinning black hole furnace. Those messy "Chaos God Curse" impurities, once entering his body, were forcibly crushed, torn, and burned by that unreasonable domineering power! All resentment, curses, and impurities within were incinerated to nothing, leaving only the purest, attribute-less primordial energy!

"This…… this is impossible!" the Shadow Guards were utterly dumbfounded.

Their proud poisonous sorcery had become the opponent's supplement? Is there any heavenly justice left in this damn world!

"Brother! Catch it!"

Wang Zhitao let out a long howl to the sky, he had reached his limit. In the next second, two streams of utterly different yet equally pure energy surged forth from his body with a roar!

One, a vast and magnificent pure life origin, like a golden heavenly river, crossing space, directly poured into the Giant Beast Wang Shan's body!

Roar—

Receiving this supremely pure life force supplement, the Giant Beast Wang Shan let out an earth-shaking roar. The wounds that had just begun to heal on his body instantly closed completely! Moreover, his originally somewhat illusory form solidified a bit more, his size even growing a circle larger than before! Black-gold flames spewed from his pupils, his aura surpassing even his peak!

The other stream of energy was even more condensed and pure, like black mercury, precisely injected into the Black Jade Slip before Wang Zhizhe.

Hum—

With this reinforcement's injection, the originally sluggish grand array instantly blazed with light! Wang Zhizhe's pallid complexion quickly flushed red, as he controlled the surging power, the array's operation speed became several times faster than before!

The entire battlefield formed a strange yet efficient cycle.

The Shadow Guards released vicious attacks, polluting the grand array.

Wang Zhitao rushed forward, treating these "pollutants" as food, digesting and purifying them.

After purification, the life energy fed back to grandfather Wang Shan, making him stronger the more he fought.

After purification, the pure energy was conveyed to elder brother Wang Zhizhe, making his array impregnable.

Li Hu and Zhang Mei, watching from afar, were already stunned like wooden chickens.

Li Hu opened his mouth, and after a long while, managed to squeeze out a sentence from between his teeth.

"I…… I think I've figured it out."

"Understand what?" Zhang Mei asked instinctively.

"These three generations of the Wang Family…… damn, they've formed a perpetual motion machine!" Li Hu's worldview was pressed to the ground and rubbed repeatedly, "One serves as meat shield and DPS, one as support and controller, and another…… another is a power bank that converts enemy attacks into mana and health!"

The Shadow Guard squad was utterly despairing.

Striking just feeds energy to the opponent.

If they don't attack, waiting for that giant beast to recover, they're still doomed.

How can we still fight? This isn't a battle at all—it's just a one-sided feeding!
