Chapter 60

Not to mention Zhao Hanshan, who found it hard to fathom, even Tu Gang himself, who was suffering intensely from the poison, was completely bewildered and groaning in pain.

He truly did not know how he had been poisoned.

He had been perfectly fine just a moment ago.

His momentum had reached its peak.

But the next moment, his internal organs suddenly felt agonizing pain, as if countless nails were crashing around inside him, destroying his meridians and piercing his organs, causing him unbearable pain.

Whoosh!

Fang Yi sneered, wasting no more time. His body flashed, and he lunged at Tu Gang in an instant.

He knew that experts of this caliber had immense vitality and would not die in a short time.

Taking the opportunity to strike now and drive more poison into the opponent's body was the best strategy.

Pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft!

Fang Yi extended his fingers, striking continuously and rapidly at the vital acupoints all over Tu Gang's body.

Every finger strike contained both fire poison and earth poison energy.

Fire poison specifically burned Blood Energy!

Earth poison was silent and soundless, infiltrating the internal organs.

Tu Gang let out a roar of pain, hurriedly curling his arms to resist. His entire face twisted, veins bulging, looking ferocious and terrifying as he bellowed, "Despicable villain, I will kill you!"

Bang, bang, bang, bang!

As the words fell, he was struck by even more finger force all over his body.

Every strike hit him at a tricky, strange, and impossible-to-defend angle. Each strike made him groan in misery, feeling the pain in his body intensify.

No matter how strong his defense was, he could not block it.

That finger force burned his Blood Energy, rendering it completely useless.

In the blink of an eye, he had been struck over a dozen times. Suddenly, he roared, "Earth Collapse!"

Boom!

He lifted his foot and stomped hard on the ground. A layer of yellowish light erupted, carrying strange air ripples that swept across the surroundings, causing the entire ground to shake violently with hissing sounds.

Even more strangely, these ripples could also induce vibrations in a person's internal organs.

Fang Yi, who was in the middle of attacking, instantly felt his internal organs vibrate, causing discomfort.

He was startled and, using his movement technique, landed in the distance in an instant.

"Pfft!"

Tu Gang spat out another mouthful of blood, staring grimly at Fang Yi, saying, "Despicable villain!"

"You invited the Wudu Laoren; is that not also despicable?"

Fang Yi's voice was calm.

"I'll kill you!"

Tu Gang roared again, suddenly taking a deep breath. A layer of intense yellowish light erupted from his body once more, and he began to absorb Earth Vein Qi again, recklessly ignoring the consequences.

Until now, he had not realized that the source of the poison in his body came from the Earth Veins.

After all, he had never heard of anyone being able to poison the Earth Veins.

Fang Yi's eyes flashed, and he sneered in his heart. From the palms of his feet, a continuous stream of "Earth Poison" was once again infiltrating underground.

"Despicable villain, today none of you will escape this place!"

Tu Gang roared while absorbing the Earth Veins to boost his strength.

However, soon after, he spat blood again and let out a miserable scream.

"Pfft!"

This time, he felt as if his internal organs were about to be perforated. Poisonous blood sprayed from his seven orifices, his body staggered backward, and he finally showed terror, realizing the truth.

"This poison of yours... did this poison of yours seep in from underground?"

He spoke in fear.

"Not entirely stupid, but unfortunately, discovering it now is already too late."

Fang Yi stood with his hands behind his back, his voice calm.

"You!"

Tu Gang revealed his fear.

He suddenly let out a cry and lunged over recklessly, wanting to perish together with Fang Yi.

But there was already too much poison in his body.

Besides the large amount of Earth Poison, there was also the fire poison driven into him by the 【Poison Coffin Soul Burial Palm】 and the 【Pulse-Severing Soul-Breaking Finger】. At this moment, the poison had penetrated deep into his marrow, causing even his copper bones to hiss and melt.

Fang Yi did not choose to collide with him at all. Instead, he flashed to another direction, his face calm, and began to search the nearby tents on his own.

For a man who was certain to die, he would not waste too much time.

Nor would he make contact with the opponent.

Because no one knew if he had other trump cards that could turn the tide.

Letting the opponent die gradually from the poison and then searching the body later—why not?

Tu Gang missed his lunge and immediately turned his gaze to Zhao Hanshan, roaring like a crazed tiger as he lunged directly at him.

Zhao Hanshan also turned and fled, dodging around the military camp.

Tu Gang continued like this, lunging at Zhao Hanshan one moment and Fang Yi the next.

His body was like a kite, being constantly played by the two.

From beginning to end, no one made contact with him.

Ten-plus minutes passed in the blink of an eye.

Tu Gang was constantly vomiting blood, both his eyeballs had begun to slowly melt, and his entire body emitted a foul, rotting stench. A large amount of poisonous fluid seeped from his pores, and with a sorrowful expression, he finally stopped.

"Villain, you damnable villain, why won't you fight me fair and square?"

He shouted loudly, somewhat hysterically.

Possessing immense strength, he had never had the chance to unleash it from start to finish.

This feeling made it hard for him to close his eyes even in death.

He believed that if given the chance to absorb the Earth Vein energy, these two despicable villains wouldn't be able to withstand even a single punch from him and would all have their bones shattered to death.

"Villains, all villains..."

Tu Gang continued to curse loudly.

Another five or six minutes passed, and he finally could not hold on any longer. With a miserable scream, he fell backward, his entire body hissing and smoking, his flesh and blood beginning to corrode rapidly, covered in thick poisonous and cadaverous fluids.

The flesh and blood were soon corroded away, leaving only a coarse, copper-shining, pitted skeleton inside.

Fang Yi walked over from not far away and bent down to search the body.

A moment later, his eyes flashed, and he directly pulled a book wrapped in animal skin from the area behind him.

He unfolded the animal skin, and his eyes lit up.

【Earth Fiend Body Tempering Technique】!

"Middle-grade martial art, this is a middle-grade martial art!"

Zhao Hanshan immediately revealed a look of intense envy, his eyes turning red.

People really cannot be compared!

First, he obtained the Iron Coffin Soul Burial Palm!

Then he obtained the Earth Fiend Body Tempering Technique!

All of them were middle-grade martial arts!

Such opportunity and luck were truly unimaginable.

"Not bad, not a wasted trip."

Fang Yi smiled and put away the secret manual with peace of mind.

Originally, when he searched the tent, he had only found some silver notes and had been secretly disappointed.

But now, obtaining the 【Earth Fiend Body Tempering Technique】 just happened to make up for the disappointment in his heart.

"General Zhao, the matter here is finished, so I should be leaving. As for the rest, you can resolve it yourselves."

Fang Yi smiled.

"Easily said. Many thanks for Mr. Ouyang's help. If not for you, we would have been completely wiped out today!"

Zhao Hanshan said solemnly, cupping his hands.

Fang Yi nodded slightly and said no more.

But just at this moment...

With a loud boom, the entire valley seemed to shake, the disturbance massive.

Following this, the rumbling continued, explosions echoing, causing the surrounding mist to roll violently.

In the distance, countless sounds seemed to come, exceptionally chaotic, accompanied by countless battle cries that could be heard from far away.

"What happened?"

Fang Yi turned his head abruptly.

"The situation is not right!"

Zhao Hanshan's face also showed shock as he looked toward the front right, saying, "It's that direction, there are beast roars!"
