The corpses, the corpse water—this bizarre lake of corpses was surprisingly a perfect match for Yang Ming's strange artifact.
The eerie light emanating from the two strange artifacts grew stronger, as if they were about to undergo some kind of evolution.
Moreover, even Yang Ming himself is undergoing a transformation in this desperate situation.
With the Corpse-Suppressing Pearl used to deal with the corpses and the Corpse Water Jar used to deal with the lake water, Yang Ming's spirituality was no longer suppressed under the protection of these two mysterious artifacts. Instead, it slowly grew in the face of adversity and was about to break through the peak of the third rank and enter the fourth rank.
This is probably the difference between the chosen ones and ordinary people. Ordinary people will die when they encounter a desperate situation, while the chosen ones will break through when they encounter a desperate situation.
This miraculous scene naturally did not escape Fang Xiu's eyes, but he ignored Yang Ming.
The chosen one is hard to die and is most adept at turning adversity into opportunity; he already knew that he could break through on the spot.
Fang Xiu continued to sink, and with Yang Ming pulling on the corpses, he successfully broke through their encirclement and reached the bottom of the lake.
A red shadow was seen floating in the dark depths of the lake.
An incredibly terrifying and eerie aura emanated from the red shadow, affecting the entire lake of corpses.
Is the source strange?
Fang Xiu tried to get closer, but the lake water around him began to become viscous. If he was swimming in water before, now it was mud, and the resistance was enormous.
As it continued to sink, the mud seemed to turn into hard soil.
Suddenly, a pair of extremely venomous blood-red eyes opened on the red shadow, and an eerie blood light spread out. Fang Xiu immediately felt a corrosive sensation on his body.
It was as if the person had jumped into sulfuric acid.
With the help of the red light, he finally saw the full picture of the red figure, which turned out to be a female corpse dressed in red!
The red-clad female corpse, with her eyes open, seemed to come alive. She silently floated towards Fang Xiu, and they came face to face.
A swollen, pale face, and eerie, scarlet eyes filled with venom, right up close!
However, Fang Xiu was no longer visible.
His eyes had been corroded, turning into two bloody holes, and his skin had long since ulcerated, revealing scarlet flesh and stark white bones.
Moments later, Fang Xiu died. His entire body was corroded and melted away, as if he had been poisoned by a corpse-dissolving potion from a martial arts novel, leaving not even a trace of his bones.
With his spirituality suppressed, he was unable to use his ability to absorb pain, and naturally, he could not regenerate; he could only die.
Before he died, he confirmed one thing: the red-clad female corpse in the lake of corpses was more terrifying than S-level, even above S-level!
With Fang Xiu's current strength, he wouldn't be completely helpless even when facing a fully grown S-rank, but he was utterly powerless against the source monster in the Corpse Lake, demonstrating its terrifying strength.
......
......
Countless white ribbons, like pythons, surrounded Yang Ming and his companions, sealing off all surrounding space.
The crowd continued to attack, countless strikes landing on the white silk. The white silk was instantly shattered, but the next second, it seemed to grow infinitely and regenerate continuously.
"Damn it, this place is really eerie. Are they trying to wear us down to death?" Li Xiaoru cursed as before.
"Luo girl, you were the one who did it last time, let me do it this time."
"No need to take action." Fang Xiu's calm voice rang out, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
Everyone looked at him with joy and anticipation.
And Fang Xiu never disappointed everyone.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he slowly opened his mouth and uttered those inspiring words: "I have seen the future."
"This future is in my hands, it's a sure thing!" Yang Ming shouted excitedly.
Everyone's faces lit up with joy. They recalled that when Fang Xiu uttered those words, it was when the headquarters was in dire straits and facing a desperate situation. As soon as he said those words, the fifth-tier expert Joker died.
"Everyone is upside down."
Fang Xiu did not explain, but gave the order directly.
Without the slightest hesitation, everyone immediately did a handstand on the spot.
The scene repeated itself once again. Yang Ming was the first to do a handstand, then he looked furtively at Luo Qingxin, who was wearing a cheongsam.
Although he wasn't as distinctive as Zhao Hao, it was just a man's nature, and human nature.
Luo Qingxin once again transformed into a peeled banana, revealing her long, white legs and safety shorts.
Not far away, a man in a funeral shroud who was walking upside down saw this scene and was immediately stunned. His face, which was already like a zombie, became even more stiff.
Fang Xiu's face was primordial, and he had black flame wings on his back. He soared into the sky, disappearing into the void.
Yang Ming was filled with envy, while Luo Qingxin squeezed her legs together even tighter.
It wasn't that Luo Qingxin was captivated by Fang Xiu's charm, but rather that she suddenly realized that if Fang Xiu looked down from above, then the safety shorts would be useless.
The reason we didn't notice this problem during the last rollback was because the zombie Wei Xin had attracted everyone's attention.
With Fang Xiu offering this reminder, everyone felt incredibly relieved and had the leisure to focus on other things.
"Wei Xin, come out."
Fang Xiu, suspended in mid-air, calmly watched Wei Xin, who was standing upside down not far away.
Wei Xin was instantly startled, and even his stiff face couldn't help but show a hint of surprise.
He never expected that these newcomers would actually recognize him!
Everyone was slightly surprised and looked in the direction of the sound, whereupon they saw Wei Xin, who was also upside down.
"There are still people in this godforsaken place?"
"Such a stiff face, and he's still called Wei Xin? Could he be Wei Xin, the zombie who disappeared six years ago?" Li Xiaoru exclaimed in surprise.
However, Wei Xin ignored everyone and instead stared intently at Fang Xiu, who stood in the void.
Who are you? Why do you know me?
Fang Xiu glanced at him indifferently: "I not only know you, but I also know that you are not your original self, but a paper doll."
"What!?" Wei Xin was shocked. He never expected that his entire background would be seen through at first glance.
"Who exactly are you!?"
"You are not worthy to know."
After saying that, Fang Xiu flapped his wings and flew towards the Corpse Lake, with the others following closely behind.
As for the zombie Wei Xin?
Nobody cares.
Wei Xin stood upside down for a moment with a dark expression, his heart filled with doubt and uncertainty.
He had finally discovered that new people had arrived at the burial ground, and he wanted to use the information gap to trick them into making a deal, so that they would become his slaves and work for him to earn ghost money.
The two beautiful women were used as playthings.
But to my utter surprise, someone saw through all my secrets.
Damn it, how much does he actually know?
After thinking for a moment, Wei Xin finally decided to follow the others. After all, he was a paper doll and wasn't afraid of encountering any danger.
He had to find out exactly who the man who revealed his identity was!
Wei Xin ran frantically with both hands, chasing after the crowd, and the more he chased, the more frightened he became.
How did this person know the way to the Lake of Corpses?
How can you be so familiar with the route, even knowing exactly how to take shortcuts and back roads?
It is important to know that the terrain of the Strange Forest is complex, and the trees grow almost identically. It is filled with strange power, and even a perception-type spirit master cannot easily find the correct route.
Aren't they newcomers?
Wei Xin probably couldn't have imagined that Fang Xiu knew how to get to the Corpse Lake because he had led the way.
