The thought of digging out Gu Su flashed through Qiao Yu's mind.

Although Gu Yuan and the others could remove the corpse-suppressing nails, the berserk drought demon wouldn't give them the chance to dig out Gu Su at all.

The drought demon exerted force with its legs and rushed towards Shen Si, clearly a petty creature.

Under the interference of the Zombie Ancestor's pressure, Shen Si's movements were noticeably slower.

"Shadow Kill!"

Shen Si's body twisted into an odd angle, and the weapon in his hand slashed across the drought demon's chest.

Zzzzzz!

Countless sparks flew from the drought demon's chest, but it continued to walk towards Shen Si as if nothing had happened.

"How is that possible? My attack is completely useless against it?" Shen Si panicked, retreating in fear.

"With our attributes halved, the drought demon is too strong for us! We have to work together!"

Gong Zhen shouted and swung his mace at the drought demon's head.

However, he couldn't break through the drought demon's defense either, and the mace was directly bounced back.

The drought demon slammed a claw at Gong Zhen, who pulled out a bone shield to block, but was still sent flying.

"Qiao Yu, I'll create an opportunity for you, see if you can break the drought demon's defense. Yang Xiangdi, Shi Shaorong, stay back, don't use your skills yet! Shen Si, attack the drought demon's eyes!"

Zuo You, having recovered, hoisted her shield again, though her face was still flushed.

She charged towards the drought demon with the Dark Star Shield, and while the drought demon was attacking Zuo You, Qiao Yu slipped behind the drought demon and slammed his fist, adorned with the Yaoguang Knuckle Dusters, into the back of its heart.

"Critical Hit! -398!"

"What kind of necromancer are you?!" Gong Zhen, who had just climbed to his feet, almost popped his eyes out.

The terrifying damage left the others breathless, but they also saw a glimmer of hope for clearing the level!

However, the next second, the drought demon turned its head and swatted with its claw, and with a smack, Qiao Yu's figure was sent flying.

He slid across the ground for more than ten meters before spitting out a mouthful of black blood.

Well, so much for hope.

"Qiao Yu, are you okay?" Zuo You asked with concern.

"I'm fine, just a little pain." Qiao Yu said, spitting out another mouthful of blood after getting up.

"How are we supposed to fight this? Besides you, no one can break this drought demon's defense." Shen Si was already thinking about retreating.

"There are two other people who should be able to." Qiao Yu looked at Yang Xiangdi and Shi Shaorong.

"Give me some time to prepare." Shi Shaorong's cold voice rang out.

She raised her staff, and terrifying fluctuations continued to gather at its tip.

This was the charging skill she had used against Qiao Yu in the arena.

"Yu-ge, conserve your strength, and help me kill that hidden Shi Yimin later."

Yang Xiangdi whispered into Qiao Yu's ear, his face grim, truly enraged this time.

"Alright."

Qiao Yu had seen what just happened, and he wouldn't let Shi Yimin leave the instance alive.

"Alas, my poor fat body." Yang Xiangdi, having turned around, returned to his carefree demeanor.

His entire body turned red, and white steam rose from his skin, while his previously obese figure slowly shrunk.

A steel-hardened version of Yang Xiangdi appeared before everyone.

His white shirt, soaked in sweat, revealed strong eight-pack abs, exuding a masculine charm.

Even Shi Shaorong, who was concentrating, couldn't help but glance at Yang Xiangdi.

"Damn! Even my post-transformation attributes are halved, what kind of perverted skill is this Zombie Ancestor's pressure?!" Yang Xiangdi couldn't help but curse.

"Let's go together!"

Zuo You charged forward with her shield, and Qiao Yu didn't waste time either, revealing his Yaoguang Knuckle Dusters and blasting towards the drought demon.

"Quicksand Bind!"

The transformed Yang Xiangdi was incredibly powerful, and red quicksand directly wrapped around the drought demon, immobilizing it.

"I refuse to believe I can't crack your head this time!"

Gong Zhen leaped high, using all his strength to slam the mace down on the drought demon's head.

Clatter!

A loud crash rang out, but the drought demon's head was unharmed, while Gong Zhen's mace snapped in two.

Gong Zhen's face turned green, and as he looked into the drought demon's scarlet eyes, his Adam's apple bobbed up and down.

"Ba-ge, something came up at my house, my mom wants me home for dinner, I'll take off first, ha~"

"Roar!"

The drought demon couldn't move its body, but it opened its mouth and spewed a large mouthful of corpse poison towards Gong Zhen.

Gong Zhen frantically tried to retreat, but as a tank, his speed was too slow, and he was directly enveloped in a thick cloud of corpse poison.

Gong Zhen's eyes rolled back, and he immediately lost consciousness, clearly passed out.

Qiao Yu felt a chill, passing someone out with just a breath, how long had this drought demon been without brushing its teeth!

"Shadow Kill, Break!"

Shen Si ambushed from the side of the drought demon, this time choosing to attack the drought demon's most vulnerable eyes.

Seeing that she was about to succeed, a hint of joy appeared on Shen Si's face.

However, the drought demon suddenly closed its eyes!

With a clang, Shen Si's weapon left a white mark on the drought demon's eyelid.

Although the drought demon had suffered a little damage, it was completely insignificant.

It stretched out its claws to grab Shen Si, when suddenly, a red light appeared beneath its feet.

"Earth Explosion Technique!"

A scarlet pillar of light, three meters in diameter, enveloped the drought demon.

It let out a painful roar, flailing its claws wildly, its flesh burned, emitting a nauseating stench of corpses.

"It's not over yet! Earth Dragon Blast!" A giant dragon formed from red quicksand blasted a mouthful of dragon breath at the drought demon.

The drought demon's health visibly dropped by a quarter.

The enraged drought demon wanted to charge towards Yang Xiangdi, but a shield flashing with a dark luster directly blocked its path.

Zuo You: "Yang Xiangdi, keep going!"

"I can't keep going... I'm out of mana, and I can't revert to my corpse state..." Yang Xiangdi smiled awkwardly.

Zuo You: "..."

"Save me!"

Shen Si cried out in alarm as the drought demon grabbed her ankle.

Bang!

Shen Si's body was slammed heavily to the ground, and the drought demon followed up with a punch to her head. If that punch landed, Shen Si's entire head would explode.

"Zuo You, raise your shield!" Qiao Yu shouted.

Zuo You didn't realize what Qiao Yu wanted to do, but out of trust, she raised her shield.

The next second, she felt a pair of hot hands wrap around her waist.

Zuo You's whole body tensed up.

What, what is he going to do? Isn't now the time? Zuo You felt her heart beating as fast as a deer.

"Go!"

Qiao Yu picked up Zuo You and threw her out. With the added force of Qiao Yu's strength, Zuo You, holding her shield, slammed into the drought demon like a cannonball.

Zuo You: "..."

However, although she saved Shen Si, the battered and bruised Zuo You had also lost her combat ability.

"Th... Thank you." Shen Si said weakly.

Qiao Yu's heart sank, the only ones with any combat power left were him and Zuo You.

"Shi Shaorong, how long are you going to keep charging?"

"Wrath of Ice!"

Just as Qiao Yu finished speaking, a terrifyingly cold aura swept past him.

The chill made him shiver.

Shi Shaorong collapsed to the ground, clearly having reached her limit.

And this time, the Wrath of Ice was clearly even more terrifying than the one she had used against Qiao Yu during the college entrance exam.

Boom!

The drought demon's body was enveloped in a terrifying cold aura, ice and snow surged, and the temperature of the entire Imperial Mausoleum plummeted.

"So cold! Is the drought demon dead?" Gong Zhen, who had been frozen awake from his coma, asked somewhat confused.

Just as he finished speaking, an iron-green hand gripped his neck!

The hand was still covered in several strings of ice crystals!

"Damn, Ba-ge, this time it really wasn't me, I just woke up!"
