I'm also desperate.
Chapter 722 Taurus! (Happy New Year everyone!)
Fang Yue hadn't learned any footwork, so his kick only had ordinary power.
If it weren't for the need to save people first, as the people below would be in mortal danger if he left, Fang Yue would probably have already rushed up to strike while the iron was hot.
However, even without pursuing, Fang Yue's two casual repulsions made the Nuumian Ghoul feel apprehensive.
Seeing Fang Yue's results, Dou Hongyi and the others were invigorated, working even harder to pull people from below.
After rescuing them, they immediately had them move away from the giant wall of hands beneath their feet.
In just a moment, half of the people had been rescued.
The majority of them were martial artists with some level of strength.
This was because these people had enough will to survive and the strength to quickly escape the scene.
The rest were ordinary civilians, who were more difficult to handle, but the rescue was proceeding steadily.
With Fang Yue in charge, everyone felt much more secure.
*Whoosh.*
The black halo's night rain officially advanced from [Lianguan] to the [Xiaoyu] level (continuous to drizzle).
The fine raindrops fell continuously on Fang Yue's head.
But Fang Yue didn't even glance at it, just staring coldly at the Nuumian Ghoul in the distance.
"Goo goo goo."
The Nuumian Ghoul's body merged into the giant wall-ground and disappeared.
Here it comes again?
Fang Yue frowned and closed his eyes.
The sound of the wind howled in his ears.
The airflow, following the direction of the wind, dispersed to the surroundings.
Soon, Fang Yue sensed that the Nuumian Ghoul below had suddenly become concentrated and was undergoing violent changes.
Opening his eyes, Fang Yue saw the Nuumian Ghoul emerging from the crowd below.
The crowd screamed in terror and scattered, only to find that as the Nuumian Ghoul emerged from the ground, its body also began to condense layers of frost, freezing them directly in place.
"Hurry up and climb up! Hurry!"
Dou Hongyi shouted instructions, and the crowd climbed up the ice sculpture steps. Although somewhat flustered, many people erupted with potential in the face of life-or-death crisis and escaped.
By the time the frost on the Nuumian Ghoul cracked and turned into shattered ice on the ground, it found that Fang Yue was already standing in front of it.
The same halo above his head, the same two-meter ice blade in his hand.
The only difference was that the original was always stronger than the imitation!
"Dark Moon Blade Technique!"
Although it was only a Houtian (acquired) blade technique, with the support of the Freezing Heart Skill and the amplification of the blade technique, Fang Yue's attributes approached the 20,000 mark. The violent power, carrying the ice blade, directly slashed at the Nuumian Ghoul.
The Nuumian Ghoul subconsciously took a step back, only to find that its right foot was directly frozen in place, unable to move.
The power of that frost was much stronger than before. It seemed that because the power was concentrated on one point, even the Nuumian Ghoul could not quickly break free, and could only take Fang Yue's blade head-on!
As the Nuumian Ghoul's right hand quickly transformed into a shield, Fang Yue's ice blade directly disappeared into the darkness, drawing a crescent moon.
When it reappeared, it had already struck the Nuumian Ghoul's hand-shield.
*Tear!*
Fang Yue calmly watched the collapsing wall of flesh, raising the ice blade high in his right hand.
As inner energy circulated, the ice blade suddenly extended upwards, as if breaking through the sky, directly piercing through the wall of flesh above, and simultaneously began to rotate at high speed, like a meat grinder, drilling a large hole in the wall of flesh.
When the giant wall of flesh completely collapsed, Fang Yue was right in the middle of the hole. With a light leap, he jumped outside.
Bathed in moonlight, Fang Yue was spotless, like a god of war.
The crowd cheered, only to find that the Nuumian Ghoul had emerged from beside them.
"Lord Ye, save us!"
The crowd screamed, and Fang Yue rushed towards them even faster.
He understood the Nuumian Ghoul's elusive abilities better and better, deconstructing them more and more clearly.
The moment the Nuumian Ghoul appeared, the moment the crowd screamed, Fang Yue's ice blade, covered in black qi, pierced through the Nuumian Ghoul's chest.
Surprisingly, there was no trace of previous injuries on the Nuumian Ghoul's chest. This stab was completely like a new wound, causing the Nuumian Ghoul to stagger back a few steps, staring blankly at Fang Yue.
-152122!
"Goo goo goo…"
Fang Yue didn't understand what it was saying. He pulled out his blade and with a backhand slash, chopped off its head.
-168856!
Clearly, both strikes were fatal, but the notification of the Nuumian Ghoul's death didn't sound. Instead, the Nuumian Ghoul's corpse melted into the ground like dissolving in water.
Fang Yue frowned, recalling the Nuumian Ghoul's performance at Dongliu Mountain, realizing that the Nuumian Ghoul was not easy to kill.
But…
Using his inner breath to sense the changes in the airflow, Fang Yue immediately sensed that the Nuumian Ghoul's core had moved to a position a hundred meters away and was reforming.
This time, the moment the Nuumian Ghoul poked its head out, Fang Yue had completely frozen it with frost.
Each time it reconstituted its body, the Nuumian Ghoul's strength would weaken, requiring it to absorb the corpses of strong individuals to recover or become stronger.
"This time, I won't let you escape again!"
Everyone has weaknesses, and the Nuumian Ghoul was no exception.
It was just that the Nuumian Ghoul's weakness was well hidden.
Only during each 'death,' at the moment of transfer, would the core be exposed.
Only by seizing the core could the Nuumian Ghoul be truly killed!
Raising his blade, he directly killed the Nuumian Ghoul that had just emerged.
The power of freezing froze everything around it.
The Nuumian Ghoul's core, which was trying to transfer, was also frozen within.
"Found it!"
With a cold smile, Fang Yue stabbed the ground with his blade.
-552281!
The fatal injury directly pierced the Nuumian Ghoul's core, a brain-like object composed of tiny hands, emitting a 'goo goo goo' shriek as black blood sprayed wildly, spilling outside the wall of flesh, quickly losing all movement.
Fang Yue thought this would be enough to kill the Nuumian Ghoul, but soon, he sensed… the Nuumian Ghoul had a full 108 cores, evenly distributed throughout the giant wall of flesh beneath his feet!
Only by killing all these cores could the Nuumian Ghoul be truly killed!
In combat, the Nuumian Ghoul was no match for Fang Yue, but in terms of self-preservation, Fang Yue still needed to put in some effort.
But at this point, eliminating the Nuumian Ghoul was only a matter of time.
Although the Nuumian Ghoul was strong, it was no match for Fang Yue in his prime.
Just as Fang Yue was preparing to begin the final harvest, a dangerous aura suddenly locked onto him from the distant high wall.
With Fang Yue's current strength, to still feel this kind of palpitating sense of crisis meant that the opponent's strength must also be at the late-stage of the Human realm, and… definitely not easy to deal with!
Subconsciously looking up towards the high wall, Fang Yue's pupils suddenly constricted.
"Niu Zuo!"
