Chapter 527: Blast and run

And in this series of explosions, all they could do was try to minimize the damage they sustained.

Surviving this explosion was the only thing they needed to do at the moment.

As the aftershocks of the explosion gradually dissipated, the Drought Demon and the Zen Sect members struggled to their feet from the rubble, each looking disheveled.

The Drought Demon’s clothes were blown apart, revealing grotesque scars on his body, and half of his body was destroyed in the violent explosion; he glared with wide eyes, letting out an earth-shattering roar.

“Damn it, who did this?!”

Seeing this, the surviving Zen Sect members felt a tightening in their hearts, their previously relaxed nerves instantly tensing up.

They looked closely and saw that their Golden Body Chan Master, which had originally shone with golden light, had somehow developed dense cracks!

These cracks, like a spiderweb, crisscrossed, as if they could shatter at any moment.

The four individuals were in a rather bad state; although their bodies appeared to have no obvious disfigurement or damage on the surface, they had actually sustained extremely severe internal injuries.

This was all caused by the Sixteen Type’s self-destruction.

Upon closer inspection, it could be seen that blood-red blood continuously flowed from their eyes, ears, noses, and mouths.

This blood seemed to have lost control, continuously gushing out from these orifices, forming shocking streaks of blood.

This fresh blood stained their faces and clothes, making their already pale complexions appear even more horrifying.

And the strong smell of blood also permeated the air, making one nauseous.

In this fierce explosion, one person became the most unfortunate victim: the lone Zen Sect member.

He stood alone on the battlefield, with no companions for support, only the tidal wave of self-destructing attacks from Liang Yu’s Sixteen Type; facing this overwhelming bombardment, he was utterly defenseless.

Although he tried his best to resist this fierce offensive, he ultimately could not hold on.

First, his indestructible Golden Body Chan Master shattered under the enemy’s powerful firepower, losing this strong defense.

Immediately after, deprived of the protection of his Golden Body Chan Master, his body could not withstand such immense impact and was directly engulfed by the explosion.

In an instant, his body, like paper ignited, rapidly turned to ashes and disappeared from this bloody battlefield.

As for the other four, they were already too preoccupied to pay attention to that unfortunate fellow.

They themselves were in dire straits, their lives hanging by a thread, so how could they spare attention for others’ lives or deaths?

And the Drought Demon, though his body was severely damaged, still dragged his battered form, walking step by step towards the four individuals.

With each step, the Drought Demon’s body emitted a “creaking” sound, as if it would fall apart at any moment.

However, surprisingly, as the Drought Demon advanced, his injured parts were continuously repairing themselves.

Wounds healed at a visible rate, damaged skin regrew, and broken bones gradually returned to their original state.

This miraculous scene made people marvel at the Drought Demon’s powerful vitality.

Just then, as everyone watched the Drought Demon’s body gradually recover at a visible rate, a strong sense of crisis welled up in their hearts.

If the Drought Demon were allowed to continue recovering like this, the consequences would likely be unimaginable.

After a brief discussion, these individuals made an extremely bold decision—to merge their four Golden Body Chan Masters into one!

It should be known that these four Golden Body Chan Masters were the result of their respective years of cultivation, and each represented their own understanding.

Now, to merge them was undoubtedly a risky attempt.

However, at this critical juncture, they had no other choice.

Because all four Golden Body Chan Masters had already sustained varying degrees of damage, continuing to maintain them would only be a futile effort.

It would be better to commit to a desperate struggle, concentrating all their power into one complete Golden Body Chan Master, which might still be able to withstand the Drought Demon’s attack.

Thus, with the tacit cooperation of everyone, they began to gradually merge their Golden Body Chan Masters together.

This process was extremely difficult, requiring precise control of the flow and balance of power; a slight misstep could lead to the failure of the entire plan.

However, these individuals did not shrink back; they focused intently on guiding the fusion of the Golden Body Chan Masters, little by little merging them into one.

The Drought Demon naturally would not allow the other party to proceed so smoothly.

The Drought Demon roared and lunged at the four individuals, his speed incredibly fast, stirring up a gust of wind.

The four Zen Sect members felt a strong gust of wind hit their faces, and their merging movements were almost disrupted.

Just as the Drought Demon was about to reach them, a golden light suddenly shot out from the merged Golden Body Chan Master, striking directly at the Drought Demon.

The Drought Demon reacted quickly, dodging sideways; the light grazed his shoulder, leaving a deep bloody mark on his body.

The Drought Demon cried out in pain and became even more enraged; he spread his newly repaired arms, emitting a terrifying aura, and the surrounding air seemed to freeze.

Immediately after, he waved his hands, and several black energy waves shot towards the four individuals.

The four individuals hurriedly concentrated their energy to control the merging Golden Body Chan Master; the Golden Body Chan Master emitted a golden shield, barely fending off the attack, but cracks also appeared on the shield.

Just at this tense moment, the Golden Body Chan Master finally completed its fusion, and an even larger Golden Body Chan Master, shining with brilliant golden light, appeared before everyone.

He exuded a powerful aura, confronting the Drought Demon, and a more intense battle was about to unfold.

At this very moment, the culprit who caused all this—Liang Laoliu—was completely unaware of the situation happening over there!

He widened his eyes, staring blankly at the empty space before him.

Looking at the empty Sixteen Type in the sky, a wave of panic surged in Liang Laoliu’s heart.

He realized that the other party might very well follow the traces he left and find him here.

“No, I can’t just sit here and wait for death!”

Such a thought suddenly flashed through Liang Laoliu’s mind.

“I must run away quickly, the farther the better!”

So, he turned without hesitation and ran, as if a ferocious beast was chasing him from behind.

However, as he ran, a thought suddenly popped into his mind.

“Explode and run, it’s truly thrilling!”

He planned to do it a few more times another day, but he needed to prepare beforehand to let these people understand what the art of explosion was!

At this very moment, a picture of a starfish appeared in his mind.
