I'm also desperate.
Chapter 336 Thundercloud Core
Fang Yue was like a burning cannonball, rushing straight toward the Black Cloud Wraith. The protective barrier formed by his hair was turning to ashes in an instant.
Around the Black Cloud Wraith, several thick beams of lightning had abruptly formed. The Black Cloud Wraith grasped them and hurled them forcefully.
With crackling and sizzling sounds, the lightning spears flew towards Fang Yue.
Amidst the eruption of flames, the lightning spears pierced through Fang Yue's fire, striking his chest.
The lightning spears were extremely fast. Fang Yue only managed to dodge to the side, avoiding his vitals, and then he groaned.
His chest felt as if it had been pierced by a laser, burning with pain, and then… it returned to normal.
Even the feeling of paralysis almost instantly disappeared.
The only problem was that the momentum had been slightly interrupted, and then the second and third lightning spears came straight at him.
"Fang Yue?!"
Qiu Dugu cried out in alarm, then heard Fang Yue's roar.
"Footstool!"
Footstool?
Qiu Dugu was stunned at first, then his expression darkened as he understood Fang Yue's meaning.
His hair spread out, chasing after Fang Yue.
As Fang Yue was pierced by another lightning spear and momentarily froze in place, the hair arrived, forming a point of impact below him.
Fang Yue stomped down with force, directly shattering Qiu Dugu's hair with his foot, and then, relying on this force, he pounced on the Black Cloud Wraith, who couldn't dodge in time, with raging flames.
At that moment, perhaps because his mind was too focused, Fang Yue felt a strange sensation.
The raging flames seemed to be concentrated at one point.
The flames began to surge towards his right fist like a tide.
The scorching and concentrated flames were almost beyond Fang Yue's control. The flames burned the skin of his right fist, but it was instantly restored with the blessing of the Night's Breath.
And at this time, Fang Yue had already rushed in front of the Black Cloud Wraith. The fist, gathering the power of his entire body's flames, slammed directly into the Black Cloud Wraith's face.
Boom!!
The fist smashed into the Black Cloud Wraith's face inch by inch. The sound of fracturing facial bones rang out, followed by an unfamiliar roar, like that of a marine creature, and the sight of lightning filling the entire black cloud, flashing wildly.
All these sounds and images seemed to be compressed into the same moment, and then… exploded!
The flames burst, and the shockwave erupted!
Thunder roared, and lightning dragons danced wildly!
The terrifying impact directly blasted a temporary gap in the black cloud.
A black shadow, burning with flames, fell from the thundercloud like a meteor.
Immediately afterward, all the lightning in the thundercloud struck Fang Yue in unison.
噼里啪啦!! (Pi Li Pa La!!)
Electric currents lashed and coiled around Fang Yue's body in a continuous stream. Even with the Night's Breath, he couldn't alleviate the paralysis. His body went numb, and he fell straight down, just like someone who had fallen before.
Even so, the electric current in the thundercloud still refused to let Fang Yue go, frantically breaking away from the thundercloud, turning into hundreds of thin electric currents, like hundreds of slender electric snakes, chasing after Fang Yue!
"Qiu Dugu!!"
"Coming!!"
Amidst Fang Yue's roar, a figure was racing against the lightning dragons.
Fang Yue fell quickly, the lightning dragons chased closely, and only Qiu Dugu was behind, shortening the distance little by little.
In the end, it was the hundreds of slender lightning bolts that struck Fang Yue first.
滋滋滋!! (Zi Zi Zi!!)
Smoke rose from Fang Yue's entire body, his body twitching, waves of paralysis washing over him.
Although his will was clear, he was briefly controlled.
"Qiu Dugu!!"
Fang Yue roared again, and this time Qiu Dugu directly cut off the giant tree that had been connected to his hair and swooped down. He finally caught up to Fang Yue.
Countless electric currents immediately targeted him as well, but Qiu Dugu relied on the dual defenses of the ancient wear-type guiwu and the transformation hair guiwu, barely managing to wrap Fang Yue up, building a spherical hair shield. kandん看書溂
However, under the bombardment of lightning, the spherical shield of transformation hair guiwu quickly failed.
But in that short amount of time, Fang Yue had completely recovered from the paralysis and healed his injuries. He stepped on the temporary foothold created by Qiu Dugu, dashed toward the ground where the Black Cloud Wraith would land, blasting out a crater-like impact point, and swooped down, his speed reaching its limit!
"Raging Fire… Mind Method!!"
Flames rose to the sky once again, and Fang Yue, like a falling meteor, directly slammed into the landing point of the Black Cloud Wraith.
Boom!!!
With a loud explosion, the entire ground was filled with flying rocks and dust. A shockwave of comprehension spread out from this point, radiating outwards.
Like a storm sweeping across the land, it eventually returned to complete silence.
滋…滋… (Zi… Zi…)
Lightning disappeared into the air.
The black cloud gradually dissipated.
The scene, which had just been booming and rumbling, was now completely silent.
When Qiu Dugu landed safely and immediately rushed to the pit where Fang Yue was, he saw a corpse lying in the pit, with a large hole blasted through its chest, completely still.
"It's dead?"
"Dead."
Fang Yue frowned slightly, shaking his right fist, which was still a little sore.
The synchronization was released, and fatigue surged up, almost causing Fang Yue to faint. Qiu Dugu, who had rushed over, quickly supported him.
"Who exactly are you? I've never seen anyone without [Guiwu] with this kind of combat power. Only [Cheaters] have this kind of power."
Qiu Dugu said meaningfully, but Fang Yue shook his head slightly, not saying anything. He just closed his eyes and felt the previous insights. His control over inner force seemed to have improved further.
However, something was still strange.
That was… the strength of this Black-rank middle-stage guiwu was much weaker than he had imagined.
To be able to solve it so easily was really unexpected.
Fang Yue's battle looked dangerous, but in reality, he only used two punches. It was just that the lightning was relentless and difficult to deal with.
Also… why did this guiwu possess Senior Brother Bai's corpse? Was it all a coincidence, or did Senior Brother Bai do something?
At this time, Qiu Dugu placed Fang Yue on the ground, letting Fang Yue sit down for a while. Then, he walked to the corpse, carefully observed it for a while, and suddenly his expression changed. He took out his phone and seemed to be comparing something. His expression was strange as he raised his hand.
嗖嗖嗖 (Sou Sou Sou).
His long hair immediately wrapped around his right hand. Then, Qiu Dugu placed his hand on the head of Senior Brother Bai's corpse.
The hair went deep into the corpse's head. After a while, it retreated and brought back… a square chip.
The chip was very thin, almost transparent, and only the size of a fingernail. Fang Yue could only see it because his eyesight was good.
"What is that thing?"
"[Thundercloud Core]… I should have thought of it sooner, why didn't I think of it earlier." Qiu Dugu looked at the chip and clenched his fist.
"What do you mean? Thought of what earlier?" Fang Yue asked in confusion.
