Chapter 132: The Perfect Combo, The Final Strike
Page (1/3)
Seeing the six men hesitate, Fang Tang would never let them have their way. A sinister smile crept across his face as he spoke softly, “I’ll give you two choices: one, help me, and maybe you’ll survive; two… well, I can send you on your way right now.”
“Are you threatening us?”
“He’s definitely threatening us!”
“Damn it! Threats are the last thing I fear in this life. Let’s see what you intend to do.”
Fang Tang’s merciless words enraged the six men. They rolled up their sleeves, ready to show Fang Tang some color. But before they could make a move, Fang Tang struck first. With a swift activation of the Shadow Extreme, the sheath of the Daxia Longque shattered the white mist state enveloping them.
“Your mental power is strong, but your actual strength is quite lacking. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have been imprisoned by Wang Gang as his spiritual batteries. If you want to get out of here, you have only one choice: help me.”
Fang Tang leaned on the Daxia Longque, catching sight of Wang Gang charging furiously toward them. He smirked and nodded toward the six men. “Five seconds to decide. After five seconds, if you haven’t made up your minds, I won’t be responsible for what happens to you.”
The six exchanged glances, then turned in unison toward Wang Gang. Feeling the overwhelming fury radiating from him, they all shuddered.
Having spent so many years in Wang Gang’s spiritual world, they knew his temper well and understood that when this ended, there would be no good outcome for them. Coupled with past grudges, the six hardened their hearts and made up their minds.
“Damn it! What do you want us to do?” one snapped angrily.
Fang Tang wore a triumphant smile. “Use your greatest abilities to restrain Wang Gang, and leave the rest to me and the captain.”
“Are you sure that will work?”
The six doubted Fang Tang and Liu Yiran’s strength.
Fang Tang, still leaning on the Daxia Longque, answered calmly, “If the spiritual body is destroyed, it’s as good as dead. You could seize the chance, take over Wang Gang’s body, and become its master.”
“That’s our only option…”
The men sighed, feeling like they were boarding a pirate ship with no way back.
Liu Ji, however, was far more resolute than the others.
After all, with Fang Tang’s help, he recalled the grudge he bore against Wang Gang.
This enmity must be avenged!
As they spoke, Wang Gang was already upon them.
“Ants seeking death!”
Wang Gang roared furiously.
Fang Tang felt a powerful force hit him squarely. Then a terrifying shock burst from his chest, and the surroundings blurred rapidly as he was pushed backward, crashing through several piles of corpses before barely coming to a halt.
“Attack!”

Suppressing his discomfort, Fang Tang shouted.
The six moved swiftly; invisible spiritual chains wrapped tightly around Wang Gang.
“Do you want to die?”
Wang Gang was bound so tightly by the spiritual chains that only his head was visible, unable to move or resist.
Liu Yiran floated over lightly and extended a finger that pierced Wang Gang’s spiritual barrier. The finger quickly darkened to a black-purple hue as endless toxins seeped into Wang Gang’s body.
Soon, wisps of poisonous gas began to emanate from Wang Gang’s entire body. His skin started flaking away like dust, drifting off with the toxic fumes.
“Ah!”
The fierce pain was unbearable for Wang Gang.
But restrained by the spiritual chains, he could only endure the agony.
Liu Ji, watching Wang Gang’s deteriorating state beneath the white mist, showed a faint expression of satisfaction. Gritting his teeth, he increased the spiritual assault and unleashed his rare mutated ability—Soul Whip.
Wang Gang’s body convulsed violently as his spiritual barrier shattered repeatedly, wearing down his mental strength with each break.
Fang Tang, clutching his chest, approached and saw Wang Gang’s condition. He grinned, revealing teeth stained dark red with blood.
“Finally caught you!”
Fang Tang slowly drew the Daxia Longque, tracing the edge against Wang Gang’s neck, seeking the perfect angle for decapitation.
At this moment, Wang Gang was nothing more than fish on a chopping block.
A flicker of terror rose in Wang Gang’s heart, only to be replaced instantly by fury.
“You’re all begging for death!”
A terrifying surge of spiritual power exploded outward, sending visible ripples scattering in all directions.
The spiritual chains instantly shattered. Liu Ji and the other five’s white mist bodies dispersed. Fang Tang and Liu Yiran were caught off guard; their bodies twisted grotesquely before being flung backward.
“Pfft!”
Even with Fang Tang’s Steel Guard and exceptional endurance, the continuous injuries proved too much to bear.
Black-red blood gushed from him, soaking his chest as his complexion flushed.
“I got careless!”
Lying on the ground, his bones feeling like they were about to shatter, Fang Tang licked his bitter lips and managed a helpless smile.
The gap between fifth and eighth rank was simply too vast.
Wang Gang now seemed transformed into another being, his body wreathed in red flames, his charred skin covered with magma-like veins.
He had completely lost control!
With Wang Gang’s rampage, the entire illusion shifted.
The mountain of corpses trembled as countless skeletons seemed to come alive, rising one after another, linking together to form enormous assembled skeletons.

Wang Gang leapt into the nearest skeleton.
The skeleton instantly activated, its massive body defying physical laws and moving with such speed that the naked eye could not track it.
In an instant, it reached Fang Tang, its fist the size of a small hill crashing down like a violent storm, creating an expanding crater centered on Fang Tang.
Fang Tang lay in the pit, desperately activating Steel Guard.
But with the disparity of three ranks between them, even the formidable defense of Steel Guard was just barely holding. It felt like the next blow would pulverize him into pulp.
“Die! Just die! Why won’t you die!”
Wang Gang vented his boundless rage upon Fang Tang.
Liu Yiran crawled up from another direction, seeing Fang Tang’s state, vanished from sight, and appeared before Wang Gang.
Immediately, the enormous skeleton shattered into fragments, and Wang Gang fell from the sky.
“Who’s there?”
Wang Gang scanned the surroundings, trying to find the assailant.
But Sequence 053’s invisibility was not so easily detected.
Invisible, inaudible, intangible, untouchable—this was the greatest means of concealment and a sure lifesaver.
Fang Tang was rescued by Liu Yiran and lay in the pit, staring silently at the sky.
“Damn it!”
What about the eighth rank fallen?
I’m going to kill you for sure!
Fang Tang vowed fiercely, enduring the pain as he rose, using the Daxia Longque to support himself, his gaze icy and fixed on Wang Gang.
[Listen up, now it’s time for the noble eye to take the stage. To be detected while hidden is an insult to me.
Before striking, here’s a little trick: sequences can combine, for example:
Sequence 011—All-Seeing Eye, that is, the Noble Eye + Sequence 202—Shadow Extreme + Sequence 399—Bear’s Strength = a deadly finish.
Now, draw the Daxia Longque, aim the tip at that worthless heart, then unleash Bear’s Strength and Shadow Extreme together.]
Reading the eye’s tutorial, Fang Tang inhaled deeply and assumed his stance.
Shadow Extreme + Bear’s Strength.
Boom!
A sonic boom erupted.
The corpses beneath Fang Tang exploded outward, but his figure remained firmly in place.
