Chapter 721
Fei Mu's caution led him to make preparations here early on, and now they finally came in handy.
He had meticulously engraved these incantations; whether it was the handwriting, the materials, or the arrangement and orientation, everything was perfect.
In this way, he could make the array reach a near-instantaneous activation speed!
Hum!
Blinding blood-red light spread through the basement, and a giant, twisted, rotting tentacle appeared in mid-air, spinning and lashing out toward Su Ming.
The thick tentacle was at least half a meter in diameter and over ten meters long, making it extremely difficult to dodge when swung.
Su Ming activated his Eye of Insight to check it immediately.
【Otherworldly Rotting Tentacle · Witchcraft Summon】
【Units touched by it will suffer massive corrosion damage】
It was actually a high-tier summoning incantation.
Su Ming flicked his fingers, his blade unsheathed, and over a dozen blades of battle intent condensed in the air.
Swish, swish, swish!!
With the 40x sword speed bonus from his Origin Sword Body, the power was truly fierce; in the blink of an eye, he slashed the tentacle into rotting meat that fell to the ground, splashing viscous blue blood everywhere.
However, Su Ming's dozen blades of battle intent were also corroded upon contact, turning into nothingness and annihilating.
Fei Mu frowned slightly, not panicked in the slightest, and said with an arrogant posture.
"Hmph, you have some skill."
"But do you think this is all I have prepared!" His expression was cold, and he raised his hands again, wanting to activate other arrays.
His Witchcraft Mastery skill had allowed him to learn a vast number of evil incantations, including a small amount of large-scale, direct-damage arrays!
He focused his mental energy and exerted his full strength to activate those incantations.
Gradually, a red circle enveloped both Su Ming and Ni Shuang.
However, the Demon-Breaking Heavenly Spirit Fish Sword had already left its sheath.
It transformed into a blue-gold swimming fish, darting and slashing flexibly; in just a few breaths, it shattered the entire string of incantations.
The Demon-Breaking Heavenly Spirit Fish had once devoured the weapon of the fourth-turn Ancient Language Programmer Geng Zheng, gaining the demon-breaking attribute affix.
【Demon-Breaking Scale Blade: Its scales are extremely sensitive to magic-type substances and can easily slash, tear, or even devour magic, arrays, runes, and barriers】
Although incantation witchcraft is not in the same system as magic, it is also a product of energy fluctuations, so the fish sword could naturally penetrate it!
Coupled with the slashing speed bonus of the Origin Sword Body, the Demon-Breaking Heavenly Spirit Fish Sword had instantly turned into an afterimage.
Swish, swish, swish, swish!!
As the light flickered, almost all the incantations in the basement were shattered.
With the incantations easily destroyed, all of Fei Mu's preparations were instantly ruined!
The release requirements for array-type skills are extremely strict; if even a single character is wrong, it might manifest as a different effect or even fail directly, unable to take effect.
Su Ming's means of suppression sent a chill through Fei Mu's heart.
He finally felt a hint of trepidation.
But he still had his corpse soldiers!
Fei Mu's eyes trembled, and the killing intent in his heart was icy.
"Corpse soldiers, kill him!" He retreated sharply, whispered, and issued a majestic command.
Boom, boom!
The next instant, the ceiling above the basement, along with the ground, was ripped away in huge chunks!!
Blinding daylight instantly fell into the space.
Fresh air finally flooded into this dark, lightless basement.
Looking up, one could see that Fei Mu's hundreds of corpse soldiers had completely surrounded the place.
Over a dozen of the corpse soldiers raised their hands in unison to activate telekinetic and metal-manipulation abilities, successfully tearing the basement open, with even the reinforced concrete flying off to the side.
Immediately, countless corpses swarmed in!
The dense crowd of over a hundred corpse soldiers each possessed special abilities; they were either mutated zombies, ability users, or class-changers.
Seeing this scene, a proud, cold sneer finally appeared on the corner of Fei Mu's mouth.
The corpse soldier that Ni Shuang's mother had become also struck out suddenly, water condensing in the air in an attempt to kill Su Ming.
Su Ming raised his hand and gripped.
Hum-swish!
A two-colored stream of light flashed as the Frost-Flame Death Scar broken sword slashed directly through those water spears.
Suddenly, the four water spears on the left were frozen into frost and shattered to the ground.
The five water spears on the right were scorched by high heat into steaming hot air, emitting a hissing sound.
The dual-attribute damage of the Frost-Flame Death Scar sword was simply a crushing blow against the moves of an enemy who had been refined into a corpse and whose ability power was only 40% of what it was in life.
Su Ming then flicked his eyes, and the blade cleanly and decisively pierced her skull, granting her true death and peace.
Without the ability to sustain them, the water droplets covering Ni Shuang's ears and the water spears pinning her to the wall instantly lost their form and flowed away, leaving her soaked.
She broke free from the control, her face furious, and immediately turned her grief into killing intent, striking with all her might.
All the water turned into monstrous cold ice, and following her will, it condensed into over a dozen giant long spears that shot out.
"Using the water condensed from my mother, I will kill you!" She roared, her voice filled with grief and trembling.
At this moment, her heart was filled with gratitude toward Su Ming; he had given her a second chance.
This time, she would absolutely not let her ability go to waste; she was determined to kill this damned enemy!
Blood tears flowed from her eyes, staining several strands of her white hair bright red.
Click, click, click.
The water molecules in the air turned into cold frost and ice, and with the movement of her hands, they transformed into dozens of long blades that slashed chaotically at the surroundings.
The hundreds of corpse soldiers immediately struck out with all their might to respond.
