Chapter 268: Facing Zhuang Mian

Black Crow said: "The Mask Thousand Faces Otherworldly Ability is extremely rare and special. The mask on Zhuang Mian's face is not paint, but patterns composed of a certain type of energy. His abilities mainly consist of three types."

"The first is called Appearance Born from the Heart; different mask colors grant different ability enhancements."

"The second is called Vocal Resonance, using Peking Opera singing techniques to launch sonic wave attacks. Different rhythmic patterns can carry different effects."

"His third ability is Mask Materialization; the mask can transform into tools..."

After Black Crow finished speaking, Chen Fan's brows furrowed tightly; Zhuang Mian's abilities were unexpectedly bizarre.

"Do you know this person's weaknesses?" Chen Fan asked.

Black Crow shook his head and said: "This person is very well-rounded; he has almost no weaknesses."

Chen Fan frowned and pondered for a moment before saying: "Then we can only rely on a sneak attack. Black Crow, I will need you to coordinate with me when the time comes."

"No problem, Master."

Chen Fan took out another drop of Life Water and had Black Crow swallow it, allowing him to recover from his injuries.

A few minutes later, he led Black Crow out of the room.

When Zhan Le and the other two saw Black Crow, they immediately looked vigilant.

Chen Fan smiled and said: "No need to be nervous; from now on, he is one of our own."

"One of our own?!" Zhan Le and the other two looked at each other, shock flashing in their eyes. They all understood that once controlled by the Beast God Pill, it was impossible to betray the Beast Worship Cult.

Therefore, when Chen Fan wanted to interrogate Black Crow, all three felt it was somewhat redundant.

Yet now, seeing with their own eyes how Black Crow had turned from an enemy into a friend, how could they not be surprised?

"Brother Chen, how did you do it?" Zhan Le asked with wide eyes.

Chen Fan smiled but did not explain, instead saying: "Come over, everyone. I already know Zhuang Mian's Otherworldly Ability. We need to act as follows..."

After Chen Fan laid out the battle plan, the chests of Zhan Le and the other two heaved.

Zhan Le opened his mouth wide: "Brother Chen, this is hunting a Grandmaster. Can we really do it?"

Chen Fan nodded and said: "As long as you don't give us away, and Black Crow and I succeed in the sneak attack, he won't be able to exert ten percent of his strength while severely wounded. We can absolutely kill a Grandmaster."

"Good! We will listen to you, Brother Chen!" Zhan Le and the other two nodded in unison.

Chen Fan took out three medicinal pills and handed them to the three.

Looking at the pills in their hands, the three were all surprised: "High-level Yang-Origin Pill? Isn't this too precious?"

Chen Fan waved his hand and said indifferently: "You all restore your Otherworldly Abilities to their peak first, otherwise we won't be able to win this tough battle."

"Right!" The three nodded heavily, their eyes full of gratitude. They were incredibly glad that they had been assigned to the same group as Chen Fan for this operation.

While the three were recovering their Otherworldly Abilities, Chen Fan sat on the sofa and looked at the System Panel.

At this moment, the Killing Points in the system had already exceeded 1 million!

He intended to redeem one Lottery Draw from the Black Prize Pool.

With a great battle imminent, it was necessary for him to arm himself to the peak.

"I hope this time it's powerful; after all, it's the Black Prize Pool, don't let me down," Chen Fan thought to himself, decisively choosing to draw.

"System, spend one million Killing Points to redeem one black draw!"

As his voice fell, the black roulette wheel slowly rotated.

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Space Otherworldly Ability Divine Ability—Space Annihilation!"

"When the host casts the Space Annihilation Divine Ability on a designated space, that space will instantly shatter like a mirror, and enemies located within this space will shatter along with it."

"Note: This Divine Ability is of a relatively high grade. Given the host's current Otherworldly Ability level, it can cause at most one hundred cubic meters of Space Annihilation, and it will instantly drain the host's own Otherworldly Ability."

After hearing this, Chen Fan's eyes lit up; he was currently lacking a powerful means of Space Otherworldly Ability output.

The power of the Space Spear was not small, but it could be dodged by enemies with fast reaction times, whereas Space Annihilation would not, because it was an instant-cast Divine Ability.

"I hope this Space Divine Ability can play a major role!"

Calming his excited mood, Chen Fan used the accumulated Spirit Power and Physique Addition Card to raise his physique and mental power to their current upper limits.

At this time, Zhan Le and the other two had also restored their Otherworldly Abilities to their peak.

"Everything is ready; let's set off immediately!" Chen Fan said.

"Yes!" The four shouted in unison.

After entering the Fire Domain, the five immediately became tense. Chen Fan directly transformed into the appearance of Gui Ya.

Ten minutes later, the group of five saw Zhuang Mian.

"Lord Zhuang Mian, it's done! They have all swallowed the Beast God Pill," Chen Fan said respectfully, imitating Gui Ya's tone.

"Oh? So smooth?" Zhuang Mian was greatly surprised, but his eyes immediately narrowed.

"Where is Blood Eye? And weren't there three of them? Why did you only bring two?"

Black Crow chuckled from the side: "Lord Zhuang Mian, you don't know Blood Eye; this guy is most fond of the love of the dragon-yang. As it turns out, the two of them caught each other's eyes, and right now... hehe."

Zhuang Mian frowned and said coldly: "Simply ridiculous! Once things are finished here, we still have to head to the next city. Gui Ya, go and call them back."

"Yes!" Chen Fan hurriedly nodded.

But suddenly, a look of horror appeared in his eyes as he pointed behind Zhuang Mian.

"What's wrong?" Zhuang Mian turned his head to look.

And right at this moment, Chen Fan erupted.

Palm Thunder exploded, slamming into Zhuang Mian's back with a boom.

This move was exactly the Thunderous Sound of Terror!

"Pfft!" Zhuang Mian's heart trembled violently, nearly being shattered, and his body was sent flying by the impact.

At the same time, Black Crow and the others also attacked him in unison.

Zhuang Mian was instantly enraged. His reaction was extremely swift; the moment his body touched the ground, he sprang out.

The mask on his face flew out, instantly transforming into a giant shield, blocking everyone's attack.

"You all deserve to die!" He knew by now that the Ghost Tooth before him was by no means the real Ghost Tooth.

Chen Fan reverted to his original appearance, his voice icy: "His heart was heavily wounded by me, attack together and kill him!"

After Chen Fan spoke, he took out the God-Slaying Spear, used Teleportation to appear before Zhuang Mian, and the long spear struck like lightning, pointing straight at the center of Zhuang Mian's brows.

Zhuang Mian sneered, his mask turned red, and he easily blocked the God-Slaying Spear with his bare hands.

The God-Slaying Spear struck his body, emitting the sound of clashing steel.

"Your spear technique is not bad, but it cannot break through my Diamond Body."

After Zhuang Mian spoke, he punched the God-Slaying Spear, bending it, and the powerful force traveled through the spear body, directly blasting Chen Fan over a hundred meters away.

At this moment, Zhan Le and the others had also arrived to attack.

Zhan Le released the Super Wind Tunnel, and the compressed air turned into sharp blades, bombarding Zhuang Mian frantically.

However, it was of no use at all; his mask instantly turned white, and his speed surged!

He easily dodged the wind blades and, like a phantom, punched Zhan Le in the abdomen; Zhan Le was struck as if by thunder, instantly vomiting blood and flying backward!

Li Wenzhao transformed into the Bone Armor Demon Bear and activated the Heaven-Shaking Bear Roar; faint ripples formed in the air, and the sound waves bombarded Zhuang Mian like mountains weighing ten thousand tons each.

Zhuang Mian sneered and began to chant, the rhythm extremely fast, like a violent storm; a terrifying air wave erupted from his mouth, directly shattering the sound waves of the Heaven-Shaking Bear Roar.

At the same time, the air wave, with Sword Intent: Pressing Forward, was invincible; the Bone Armor on Li Wenzhao's body shattered, leaving him covered in blood!
