Chapter 2323 Stone Slab
What?
Shamuk and the other two elders were startled. They had not anticipated Fang Heng’s tenacity, that he would be able to make such a decisive choice to go all out in this situation!
“Bang!!!”
The elder standing at the far right couldn’t dodge in time. Fang Heng’s punch immediately sent him flying, crashing heavily to the ground with a resounding “Boom!”
“Chi, chi chi…”
A large group of Licker on the ground immediately charged at the elder, devouring him.
“Tsk tsk!”
Almost at the same time, Fang Heng’s body was penetrated by hundreds of thin, dark wooden poles.
Fang Heng furrowed his brow.
He did not feel the heart-wrenching pain he had anticipated.
This meant that the skill also came with a paralyzing and poisoning effect.
But Fang Heng thought this was actually good news.
Otherwise, he would have been in for a world of hurt.
Hints and tips for the game refreshed densely.
[Hint: The player receives 125,000 piercing damage and is afflicted with poison, paralysis, and bleeding states… The player’s talent skill “live diversion” activates, distributing this damage among nearby clones…]
[Hint: The player received 131,000 piercing damage…]
[Hint: The player enters the “vine entanglement” state, with “strength seal” and “seed parasitism” statuses…]
[Hint: The player received 151,000 piercing damage…]
[Hint: The player’s ‘undying body’ effect has been triggered. The player’s negative physical effects have been removed…]
Instantly, hundreds of damage notifications appeared on Fang Heng’s retina.
Fang Heng was pierced by hundreds of dark wooden thorns, covered with layers of dense vines that made him resemble a hedgehog. Despite this, he quickly adjusted his stance and darted into the midst of a black fog behind him.
Shamuk and another elder exchanged a glance, both showing expressions of extreme shock.
That person!
What was going on?
The three of them combined their strength and still failed to kill him!
Although they could not sense Fang Heng’s aura, they were very sure that Fang Heng was definitely not dead.
To survive under the combined skill of the three, even at the cost of one elder, and endure such damage, this person’s resilience was terrifying.
“Don’t mind him! Destroy the teleportation gate first!”
Shamuk shouted, swiftly moving towards the teleportation passage.
In truth, it wasn’t that they didn’t want to use ranged attacks to destroy the teleportation gate. They had tried many times before, but every ranged attack aimed at the teleportation gate was preemptively blocked by the Licker using its flesh and blood.
They could only attack when they got close!
Fang Heng retreated into a shroud of black fog, breathing heavily.
The combined skill of the three elders had temporarily incapacitated him.
Currently, he was heavily afflicted by numerous negative statuses, including “strength seal,” “petrification,” “vine entanglement,” “seed parasitism,” and “wood thorns,” all of which were magical debuffs that couldn’t be cleansed by the “undead” effect.
Moreover, the surroundings were engulfed in a polluted black fog.
In such an environment, switching to a Holy Faction form to dispel these negative effects would undoubtedly be suicidal.
Fang Heng could only gulp down a potion and endure, waiting for the negative effects to wear off.
From a distance, Fang Heng observed Shamuk and the other.
Taking on three elders of the Wood Tribe alone, even with the assistance of the black fog, seemed overly ambitious.
However, all sixteen vampires had successfully used the stone slab to teleport.
Even if the teleportation passage of the vampires was destroyed now, it wouldn’t matter…
Despite being affected by various nauseating negative effects, Fang Heng’s HP showed no signs of weakening at all.
He couldn’t let them destroy the portal so easily.
Disgust them further!
Expend them!
With that in mind, Fang Heng once again used the Breed-Boiling Skill aimed at Shamuk.
Shamuk and another elder were currently braving attacks from a horde of Lickers and the enveloping black fog to forcefully assault the teleportation passage.
“D*mn it!”
A large number of Lickers bursting out from the darkness caused them considerable trouble, compounded by the invisible psychic piercing and boiling blood effects.
Shamuk and the two elders had never encountered such nauseating combat before and were completely at a loss for defensive rituals.
They could only endure!
“Bang!!!”
After enduring waves of attacks from Lickers and Fang Heng, the blood-colored teleportation passage finally exploded with a bang before their eyes, rendering it completely ineffective.
The continuous stream of Lickers pouring out from the teleportation passage finally ceased temporarily.
Shamuk breathed a slight sigh of relief.
But the problem was far from solved!
The hall still harbored a large number of Lickers and ordinary zombie creatures.
And there was Fang Heng, lurking in the shadows and launching continuous sneak attacks.
To make matters worse, they also had to divert attention to protect the sapling of the sacred tree.
As Shamuk continued to fight relentlessly, his injuries worsened, reaching a critical point where they were becoming uncontrollable.
“Let’s go!”
Another guardian elder noticed Shamuk’s deteriorating condition and reached out to pull him away. Finding Shamuk unresponsive to the tug, the elder frowned.
“Shamuk! Staying here will only lead to our demise! What protection can we offer the sapling in this state? Our only chance is to get out!”
Shamuk gritted his teeth tightly.
He knew that the other party was telling the truth.
Staying here would only make them live targets for the enemy!
He was not able to protect himself, let alone the sapling of the sacred tree, and having already lost one elder, there was no sense in sacrificing more lives unnecessarily here.
Realizing the futility of the situation, the two joined forces and broke through towards the periphery of the cultivation hall where the sacred tree was nurtured.
The horde of Lickers swarmed in response, but the two managed to tear through and escape.
“What a shame…”
In the shadows, Fang Heng muttered quietly.
If only they had stayed a bit longer, until the negative spells on him had dissipated enough, and then added the effect of Boiling Blood, he was confident he could have kept them both here.
Unfortunately, the enemy escaped swiftly.
Fang Heng glanced again at the severely injured Wood tribe elder who had succumbed under the continuous assault of the Lickers, leaving behind several crystals on the ground.
Rainbow crystals!
Even amidst the dense black fog, the rainbow crystals shimmered faintly.
Fang Heng reached forward and swept his hand, collecting the burst crystals into his grasp.
[Hint: The player kills the Wood tribe elder, Kase. The player receives rainbow crystal*5 and gains 120,000 reputation points with the tree spirit tribe.]
Seeing Shamuk and his companion escape, Fang Heng decisively took control of all the Lickers and normal zombies in the hall, directing them to completely block off the external exit of the cultivation area for the sacred tree.
Let’s go!
“Go check on how Abe Akaya has set up the teleportation magic array!”
“Your Majesty.”
Carl and his group of vampires had finished placing the sixteen magic array slabs in the corner of the room.
Seeing a figure emerge from the swirling black fog ahead, all the vampires bowed in unison.
“Continue perfecting the magic array. I’ll assist you.”
Fang Heng raised his hand to coordinate with the vampires to speed up the array’s setup.
After combining the sixteen stone slabs, the central hub of Abe Akaya’s teleportation magic array was formed.
Only the outer periphery of the magic array remained to be manually arranged.
However, the time saved compared to the original setup was significant, even with just completing the outer circle.
