“Let me tell you… otherworldly traveler…” Fuling promptly responded, “The ugliest moment in this world… is the instant when the most beautiful thing… is destroyed!”

Her tone was extremely resentful, and every word she spat out was filled with anger and pain.

Before she finished speaking, Fuling raised her arm and pointed. The next second, a “shit dragon” shot out of the swamp, straight up, and pounced on Feng Bujue.

Seeing this, Brother Jue let out a light shout and twisted his body quickly. He used his feet as cones and unleashed a series of Lan Jiao (Storm Kicks).

For a time, the shit dragon darted around, and slashes flew horizontally.

The light waves unleashed by the Lan Jiao (Storm Kicks) overlapped, like滔滔大浪 (滔滔大浪 tāotāo dàlàng, surging waves), engulfing the shit dragon and gradually tearing it apart. After the slashing waves passed, Feng Bujue successfully dissolved Fuling's attack completely.

Fuling didn't pause; she simply brought her arms together and initiated another technique. A fierce gust of wind whistled out from Fuling's palms. Even if this dark brown gas cannon couldn't kill someone, it could probably suffocate them…

Faced with this non-corporeal attack, Lan Jiao (Storm Kicks) would probably be difficult to deal with. Feng Bujue had no choice but to spin and jump down, fleeing the range of the blast.

“Hmm… this Boss seems to be a stake…” Brother Jue thought to himself as he moved in the air, “Its lower body is always trapped in the swamp, and the rotation of its upper body is quite slow, which means… as long as I quickly circle around to her back and attack her waist, she won't be able to dodge.”

Thinking of this, Feng Bujue kept [Ling Shi Ju Shen Shu - Gai (Spirit Consciousness Gathering Technique - Modified)] continuously activated and used alternating Moon Steps with his feet, stepping three times in a row in the air. His figure was like a refracted beam of light, instantly closing in on Fuling's lower back.

“Anyway, I'm wearing gloves… I'll risk it!” Feng Bujue also understood that it was impossible to kill this Boss without touching it at all. In order to minimize the number of touches… he decided that he would either not strike, or strike with a killing blow!

Whoosh whoosh whoosh—

A sharp whistling sound suddenly rose.

The fierce palm wind concealed soft strength, and the overbearing flying dragon unleashed a murderous strike.

The [Nan Dou Fei Long Quan (South Dipper Flying Dragon Fist)] was unleashed, and the dangerous Qi (energy) surged like a storm, hitting Fuling's lumbar spine directly…

…………

At the same time, on the other side of the swamp.

“Did you guys hear that?” Tianma Xingkong (Pegasus in the Sky), walking in the middle of the team, suddenly spoke.

“Ah… I heard it, this wind sound…” Jibu (Atobe) responded, “It sounds like someone is screaming.”

“It should be some kind of scary sound effect.” Feichai Shu (Worthless Uncle) added, “Many scripts have it…”

Honghu (Swan Goose) also said, “Yes… I even played a single-player nightmare script where the setting was to be harassed by 'ghost language' from beginning to end…” He adjusted his glasses, “Even recalling it now… makes my hair stand on end…”

“Uh… I hate this kind of roundabout scare tactic the most,” Tianma Xingkong (Pegasus in the Sky) said.

“How should I put it…” Honghu (Swan Goose) replied, “The 'roundabout' you mentioned can also be said to be atmosphere rendering, which is considered a more advanced means of scaring. Compared to those direct visual impacts, this method is more lethal.” He paused for a moment, “Using subtle sounds or images to make people associate and gradually accumulate fear… and finally, exploding at an unexpected point will achieve an effect greater than one plus one.”

“Hmm… I wonder how Brother Feng is doing now.” Feichai Shu (Worthless Uncle) muttered, “In this atmosphere… it's easier to overthink when walking alone, right?”

“Im~possible!” Jibu (Atobe) and Honghu (Swan Goose) said these three words in unison.

“Don't worry, he's probably having a lot of fun by himself.” Jibu (Atobe) continued, “That guy will definitely not overthink, because his brain is always thinking about some kind of evil plan… Once, he stayed alone in a city full of mutated zombies for a while, and he took the opportunity to establish a stronghold for luring and killing zombies. That place had a wide field of vision, plenty of ammunition, complete bait, and his [BEEP] music accompaniment…”

“That's right, this guy is definitely not normal…” Honghu (Swan Goose) also added, “I've never seen him afraid of anything…” He paused for two seconds, then said, “You all know about the people from Corpse Blade Studio using drugs… Even if they used drugs, it's impossible to completely abandon fear. And the drug also made their reactions a little slow, and their facial expressions became more wooden.” He adjusted his glasses, “But Brother Feng… is truly fearless. In that team script that I experienced with him, he repeatedly asked to investigate alone in a pitch-black environment… and remained calm throughout the entire process. I really don't know how this guy's nerves are wired…”

“Okay… well, it seems I'm worrying unnecessarily.” Feichai Shu (Worthless Uncle) replied with an awkward expression. He hadn't had any direct contact with Brother Jue during the Peak Tournament. He had only watched a few of Brother Jue's match recordings after the competition and knew that this person was very strong and had a very 'crazy' personality.

What Feichai Shu (Worthless Uncle) didn't expect was… this person was much more bizarre than he had imagined. He was able to make Honghu (Swan Goose) and Jibu (Atobe) (so far, Feichai Shu (Worthless Uncle) still believed that Jibu (Atobe) was a deeply hidden expert) appear and give "inhuman" evaluations. It was truly not simple…

“Ah! Is that a stone slab road ahead?” At this moment, Tianma Xingkong (Pegasus in the Sky) saw something over Feichai Shu (Worthless Uncle)'s shoulder and immediately said loudly.

“Yes, there are still dozens of meters, and we will have successfully crossed the swamp.” Feichai Shu (Worthless Uncle) said, taking off the helmet on his head, “The 'light path' will also disappear here.”

“Phew…” Jibu (Atobe) breathed a sigh of relief, “Feng Bujue was right… At this moment, our sense of smell is probably numb. I didn't even notice that the smell had faded.”

Indeed, since some unknown time, the four of them had all stopped covering their mouths and noses, indicating that they had all adapted to the foul-smelling environment…

“Wait! What's that?” Honghu (Swan Goose), who was walking at the back, suddenly discovered something again and reminded, “Over there, on the edge of the swamp.”

Following his words, everyone looked forward. They saw… on the edge of the swamp, at the intersection of the mud and the stone slab road, there was a strange shadow wriggling on the ground. Looking closely… it looked like a giant palm, stroking the ground…

…………

Back to the battlefield where the hidden Boss was.

Let's talk about… Feng Bujue's move, the [Nan Dou Fei Long Quan (South Dipper Flying Dragon Fist)], was unleashed neatly.

Fuling was huge and deeply trapped in the swamp, so she naturally couldn't avoid it. So, she took this hit solidly and screamed miserably… A terrifying whistling sound mixed with stench spewed out of Fuling's mouth and spread within the combat barrier.

After Feng Bujue's attack succeeded, he struck and left, clinging to the transparent barrier and bouncing off, quickly putting distance between himself and the Boss.

However… the terrifying strange sound still drilled into Feng Bujue's ears. In a very short period of time, this sound actually disrupted his sense of balance and distance, causing his body to stagger in mid-air, almost falling.

“Tch… after being injured, she launches this unavoidable feedback attack…” While stabilizing his body, Brother Jue was still analyzing the meaning of this Boss's various reactions on a game level, “Leaving that aside…” His gaze flashed to the point of impact just now, “Did my attack… really work…”

His suspicion was also reasonable, because in these short few seconds, the area on Fuling's lower back that had been shattered had been re-covered by dark brown material, looking exactly the same as before the attack, seemingly unscathed.

“Physical attacks are ineffective? Or is her self-healing ability super strong?” Feng Bujue's mind raced, and his body didn't stop. Before Fuling's next attack arrived, he had to get back to a higher area as soon as possible to gain more room to maneuver.

“Ah! You hateful, filthy ant! When I catch you, I will definitely drown you in the deepest part of this swamp!” After screaming miserably, Fuling added a threatening scolding.

“Hmm… I might as well try another pure spiritual technique attack.” Feng Bujue ignored the other party's yelling and jumped up, reaching the highest arc of the barrier.

He first took out the Vajra Bell and activated special effect four: [Doubles the effect of your next spiritual specialty skill (under reasonable conditions)]. Then, he placed his hands in front of his eyes and aimed downwards.

“Ah… my gloves are indeed stained with a lot of shit…” Brother Jue muttered while preparing the Spirit Energy Cannon, “This Boss is big enough… it should swallow 100% of the Spirit Energy Cannon's damage, right?”

Speaking to this point, his eyes sharpened. The spiritual energy around him suddenly surged, and a shocking ultimate move was already on the string.

“Optimistically, she'll at least suffer some serious injuries…” Feng Bujue said, adjusting the Spirit Energy Cannon's trajectory to the best angle, and shouted the name of the move in a very chuunibyou (childish) manner, “Fuling! Eat my Large Spirit Energy Cannon!”
