Chapter 926

Night Rain also has its levels.

Although in the public's mind, any Night Rain is a disaster-level threat, and only those of Rain Level have the qualification to face it.

But in reality, when Night Rain is still at the Light Rain or Medium Rain level—relatively weak—it's still possible for most martial artists to endure for a while, just not to remain active within it for long.

Yet once Night Rain escalates from Medium Rain to Heavy Rain, let alone Severe Rain, its danger surges abruptly, becoming a natural calamity even Cloud Level martial artists must flee from.

Only true Rain Level experts can directly confront such a force.

And when it reaches the legendary Blood Rain Level, even Rain Level experts hesitate—though not entirely unable to cope, it becomes extremely troublesome and difficult to handle.

Because Rain Level experts can merely endure Night Rain and move freely within it—they do not truly ignore it.

And right now, the Night Rain falling from the sky had clearly reached the Severe Rain Level… a level most people would never see in their lifetime.

Pale red rain poured down with a rushing sound, drenching everyone.

"Retreat! Retreat! Captain Wu Feifei, this anomaly and this Night Rain are beyond our capacity to handle!"

"Yes, yes! Captain Wu Feifei, let's retreat immediately!"

Coming to their senses, someone immediately proposed it.

It wasn't that they didn't want to turn and run right now—they feared that if they were the first to flee, Fang Yue would kill them first.

But if everyone ran together, their chances of survival would greatly increase amid the chaos.

Wu Feifei's face darkened; pale red Night Rain pattered against her face, sliding down her tall nose.

Even she couldn't last long in Severe Rain Level Night Rain.

And to think of defeating the monstrous anomaly before them—capable of one-sword annihilating 【Zui Jie Shuang Lian】 and 【Zhui Tian】—was even more unrealistic.

So after a brief moment of thought, Wu Feifei immediately gave the order.

"Retreat!"

That order, like a pardon, lifted everyone's spirits.

With Wu Feifei's command, everyone instantly began sprinting backward, using every ounce of strength, pulling out all stops, desperate to escape the battlefield faster, even faster!

Unlike natural Night Rain, the dark clouds above were clearly Fang Yue's ability; in size and scope, they were far less extreme than natural ones.

Thus, if they could just distance themselves from Fang Yue and this anomaly, they had a chance to survive!

As for the fates of others, no one cared.

Unlike regular squads, the death row squad's retreat routes were unrestricted!

This meant each person would flee in their own direction, scattering within seconds, breaking into small groups, instantly losing any large target.

Against a single opponent, this scattered escape tactic was highly effective.

But the erosion of Night Rain was still too fast!

"Aaaahhh!!"

【Hu Tou Qiang】, specialized in speed, had held back during his race against 【Zui Jie Shuang Lian】 and 【Zhui Tian】.

Now, he unleashed his full speed, surging to the front of the squad!

But… he felt he had reached his limit.

Even frantically swallowing pills couldn't counter the Severe Rain's violent erosion.

Even his internal force shield shattered in an instant.

Even his anomaly shield raised overhead was pierced and corroded by Night Rain, penetrating straight into his body.

In this moment of life and death, 【Hu Tou Qiang】 roared, leaping high into the air, vanishing into the earth.

Plop! He plunged into the ground as if diving into water, sinking naturally and swiftly.

But a hundred meters away, the ground suddenly erupted like a geyser, spewing pale red rain.

And with the geyser came half of 【Hu Tou Qiang】's body.

His half-corroded form was washed onto the ground by the spurting "blood fountain," already dead—his terrified, struggling expression, eyes wide open in death, weighed heavily on the others' hearts.

But the other death row inmates didn't slow—they all accelerated, even more desperate to escape the reach of Severe Rain.

Soon, Wu Feifei and the others reached the spot where 【Hu Tou Qiang】 had just passed, running past his corpse.

As they crossed over 【Hu Tou Qiang】's body.

Wu Feifei suddenly felt the blood-red soil beneath her feet turn soft and muddy.

One step down, her shoe sank half an inch into the ground, like stepping into a swamp, her body sinking several inches.

And in the next instant.

Sssssss!

The ground suddenly erupted in a spray of blood, like a blood arrow lashing toward Wu Feifei's face.

Wu Feifei's expression changed; she stepped back to dodge—but was shoved violently forward by a death row teammate behind her.

Unprepared, her body lurched forward, drenched in blood, screaming "Aaaahhhhh!"

Her Qi and Blood burned furiously, plummeting like vaporization; her strength drained away—Severe Rain's power was beyond even her endurance, nearing her limit.

"Pill! Pill!"

With all her strength, Wu Feifei pulled out her long-stored 【Extreme Coagulated Blood Medicine】 and swallowed it.

Her Qi and Blood temporarily offset the effects of the blood-soaked face—but only temporarily.

She had to move faster. She had to move even faster!

But before that, Wu Feifei had one thing to do.

She would kill the death row inmate who had just shoved her.

These criminals, long resentful under her discipline, now saw their chance and tried to kill her.

Such a menace must not be left alive—she must kill one to warn a hundred!

But when she raised her sword and looked forward, she froze.

Because he had just collided with her death row prisoner, he was already dead on the ground over a thousand meters away.

Clearly, he had been drowned alive due to insufficient Qi and Blood.

Next to that corpse were a dozen corpses of Death Row Team members.

A Night Rain fell, and those once lofty Death Row Team members — each one a Human-grade or even Cloud-grade expert — now lay like dead dogs in the pale red rain, their bodies slowly rotting under the downpour, bones exposed.

"These bastards!"

Wu Feifei's heart sank.

Although the Death Row Team had given her much trouble, it had always been her source of strength.

But after this battle, more than half of the Death Row Team was dead or wounded — the losses were catastrophic; it would likely exist only in name.

And the weakening of the Death Row Team meant her standing in 【Blue Coral】 would decline, gradually pushing her to the margins — this was not the situation Wu Feifei wanted to see.

But all of that was a problem to consider only if she could escape alive.
