Chapter 197 Devouring the Black Mud
"Try again." Yang Xie gave each of them a rocket launcher and told them to attack the black mud monster together, but the result was the same.
The rocket launcher can penetrate the monster's body, but it cannot cause any real damage, nor can it even distract it.
"Oh no, it's moving towards the sea!" Sui Cheng guessed that it must have sensed Lu Zhi's movement and was preparing to stop it.
"We can't wait any longer, we have to find a way."
Sui Cheng immediately released his energy, and supernatural powers surrounded him, with lightning flashing.
In that instant, the monster that was about to go into the sea suddenly stopped, as if it had sensed something, and charged directly towards them.
“It’s a superpower,” Yang Xie said.
But there's something strange: they used their superpowers quite a bit on the island, so why did those superpowers become attractive to monsters at this point?
"It seems to be coming only for me." Sui Cheng tentatively teleported to a short distance away, and the monster immediately changed direction and headed towards him.
Sui Cheng switched his superpower to ice-based, and the monster stopped chasing him.
"It's lightning." Sui Cheng condensed a ball of lightning and threw it at the monster.
The monster didn't dodge; instead, it charged towards the lightning ball, which stuck to its body.
As they shook hands, the lightning ball exploded, blasting a fist-sized hole in the monster's body.
This hole is different from the previous ones; it didn't heal directly.
A glint of light flashed in Sui Cheng's eyes, and he directly activated lightning, unleashing a thunderstorm. Crackling lightning bolts fell, all striking the monster.
This completely enraged it.
The black mud coalesced into tentacles and attacked Sui Cheng. He dodged several times, but the tentacles still relentlessly pursued him.
Dang Hongyuan and Yang Xie were also attacking it with their supernatural abilities, but it seemed to only see Sui Cheng and the attacks were always directed at him.
Sui Cheng immediately switched to his superpower, freezing all the black mud under his feet with ice.
Upon discovering that he could control the Black Mud's movements in this way, Sui Cheng saw hope and shouted to Yang Xie, asking for his help.
Yang Xie and Dang Hongyuan exchanged a glance, then quickly came to his side and asked him what to do.
Looking at the enormous monster's figure, Sui Cheng said, "Let's freeze the land for a thousand miles."
This will consume a lot of energy, but it's still better than what we're doing now.
He extended the ice layer, nurturing evil spirits to manipulate energy and lend them a helping hand.
The black mud tentacles frantically pounded against the ice on the ground, and within seconds the tentacles were frozen solid as well.
Now they are just waiting for the legal team.
Under the sea, vines wrapped around the lower part of the island, and black mud kept gushing out from the black hole in the middle.
Lu Zhi entered the cave despite the mental barrier, but the cave was too deep. Even the mental energy he released could not find its source, as if it were about to penetrate the entire earth.
If it weren't for the constant flow of black mud around him, he would have doubted that he had come to the wrong place.
As he went deeper, Lu Zhi felt an extremely strong pressure that caused his body to bend slightly, and in an instant, he reverted to his original form.
The ivy shook its branches and leaves and continued deeper into the valley.
A huge, fluorescent blue rock came into view.
The boulder exudes a faint yet captivating power.
Lu Zhi transformed back into human form, swallowed uncontrollably as if he had seen some delicious food, and subconsciously moved closer to the boulder.
He seemed to be bewitched; just as his palm was about to touch the boulder, he suddenly woke up and quickly retreated a few meters.
Something's not right!
Lu Zhi observed his surroundings and realized that the black mud nearby had completely disappeared at some point. In the pitch-black cave, the only light came from this giant rock.
He didn't make any rash moves, but instead started looking for the whereabouts of the black mud.
Once we got here, we couldn't even find the source.
The vine tentatively struck the boulder, causing the energy released by the boulder to surge and strike Lu Zhi directly in the chest.
Lu Zhi deliberately didn't avoid it. He used his devouring ability to envelop the energy, which he could absorb, but suddenly some fragmented memories appeared in his mind.
It's so messy, it's giving the lawyers a headache.
The pitiful screams and cries in my head were too chaotic, a jumble of sounds, making it impossible to discern what was being said.
Lu Zhi tested him again and found that the boulder did not intend to attack him.
He couldn't afford to waste too much time, so he continued searching for the source of the black mud, but there was no way out, so he had to return the way he came.
Upon returning, he saw the surging black mud again.
Looking back at the giant rock inside the cave, he suddenly had a revelation.
The space where this boulder is located seems to be isolated, which should also hide the source of the black mud. He must find a way to solve this problem.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Zhi realized that the only solution was to use the scattered fragments of memories he had absorbed.
He returned to the boulder and sat down on the ground.
This time, there was no concealment whatsoever; his aura exploded like raging flames, filling the entire space and enveloping the boulder.
"ah!"
"Help!"
"What's this?"
"Get out of the way..."
He saw many people in those fragments of memory, shouting and running away.
The spiritual power of the law permeated the crowd and finally landed on the sky full of shooting stars.
He remembered; it was the day the end of the world came.
Meteors in broad daylight, sparks at night—meteors fell upon this land, shattering bustling cities beyond recognition. Some places were fortunate enough to escape unscathed, but the anomalies quickly spread throughout the world.
The law enforcement officer now knew the origin of the boulder.
It was one of those shooting stars in the sky, and the black mud also came from it.
Lu Zhi took a deep breath, absorbed the energy from the boulder, and couldn't help but let out a burp, feeling a bit stuffed.
The magnetic energy of the boulder weakened, black mud reappeared underfoot, and the boulder in front of us changed its appearance. Black mud flowed down from it, and the fluorescent blue light was completely obscured.
He has to find a way to destroy the stone.
He took a deep breath, channeling energy into the vines. The sharp, cold blade struck the boulder, but even with all his might, he only managed to knock off some fragments.
There was no other way but to use the most direct method.
Lu Zhi withdrew his mental energy and stepped directly onto the black mud. The black mud corroded him, and he was also devouring the black mud, until his whole body was enveloped in the black mud, leaving only a green leaf emitting a faint light in the black mud, representing the last trace of life.
He felt his consciousness dissipating, his entire body merging with the black mud.
The constantly absorbing energy inflated like a balloon, and it was unclear when it would burst and explode.
Just as Lu Zhi was about to fall into a deep sleep, his soul trembled, and he heard Sui Cheng's voice in his ear.
"Law enforcement".
He woke up instantly, separating a portion of his consciousness to connect with his clone on the other side.
"Law Enforcement, cough!"
Sui Cheng coughed violently, spitting out a mouthful of blood. The black mud was blocked by the mental barrier, and vines blocked Sui Cheng's way.
Lu Zhi's heart trembled, his pupils contracted sharply, and he felt more pain seeing Sui Cheng vomit blood than when he himself was injured.
"What happened while I was traveling with you?"
