Chapter 3120: The Way

"The residual energy in the magic array wasn’t much. It could be confirmed that the teleportation destination of Fang Heng and the other wasn’t far from here, most likely still inside the cavern."
The lead elder nodded slightly, then looked at the various groups behind him, "Split into teams and search. There must be members of the Lanyue Clan hiding inside the cavern. Find them at all costs. If they don’t cooperate, kill on sight."
"Yes!"
At the same time, at the bottom of the maze,
Nasir hid inside the holy barrier, watching the swarm of lickers continuously attacking the giant evil fetus inside the cavern. A look of surprise gradually appeared in his eyes.
The assault had lasted nearly two hours!
The lickers were still tangled with the evil fetus.
What Nasir never expected was that the seemingly unshakable mountain-like creature was already in a severely inferior position!
Fang Heng’s summoned creatures’ attacks carried the effect of Holy Purification, carving a deep wound on the outer layer of the evil fetus. The damage continuously triggered secondary damage through the purification effect.
Layer by layer of rotten flesh slowly peeled off the evil fetus, falling to the ground and turning into foul pus.
Compared to two hours ago, the evil fetus had shrunk sharply to about one-third of its original size.
Fang Heng glanced at the game hints.
[Hint: The player’s zombie clone (Licker) dealt 17,633 damage to an unknown creature.]
[Hint: The player’s zombie clone (Licker) passive ability activated, absorbing 0.2 agility from the target. Current absorbed attribute reached max and cannot increase further.]
After over two hours of continuous attacks, the lickers had extracted a large amount of basic attributes, visibly increasing their damage against the evil fetus.
Even the speed and strength of the evil fetus’s tentacle spike attacks were much lower than at the start.
The dense lickers had surrounded the evil fetus, biting and attacking relentlessly.
The evil fetus showed visible weakness.
It was almost done.
Nasir swallowed carefully.
He had never imagined this could happen.
The mountain-like evil fetus was slowly collapsing before his eyes. More than two-thirds of the eyeball-like forms that kept opening and closing on its body were now shut.
Fang Heng observed the evil fetus’s condition secretly.
It had reached its limit!
Its defense had been reduced to zero. The lickers dealt over ten thousand damage each strike, but the evil fetus’s life recovery speed seemed not yet fatally affected.
No more waiting.
Add some more pressure and speed up its demise.
"Nasir, stay here and watch. I’ll go help."
Nasir’s heart jumped, but he agreed, "Okay, you be careful too!"
Fang Heng flashed forward toward the evil fetus, retracting the holy scepter and switching to the great holy sword.
The evil fetus sensed the threat from Fang Heng. From its bloated body, countless tentacle spikes immediately attacked him!
"Whoosh!!!"
Fang Heng’s heavy sword suddenly slashed forward!
"Boom!!!"
A dense mass of spikes shattered under the heavy strike!
The broken flesh rapidly dissolved under the power of holy energy.
"Buzz..."
The spreading secondary holy ripples instantly annihilated large groups of spikes.
"Pa!"
Fang Heng lightly tapped the space with his toe, folded his body, and with a double leap, dashed to the right side of the evil fetus.
"Boom!!!"
The heavy sword swept again!
More than half of the flesh spikes spreading from the evil fetus were destroyed by one stroke!
Thanks to the spike dissolution, the Licker swarm quickly climbed onto the evil fetus, surrounding all three layers tightly and inflicting furious damage!
Keep going!
Fang Heng squinted his eyes and raised the great holy sword to strike the evil fetus again.
"Bang! Bang bang!!!"
The entire cavern filled with the sounds of rotten flesh bursting and the "chi chi" hissing of purifying dark aura.
Nasir stood behind inside the holy barrier, watching the evil fetus shrink slowly, with large chunks of pus and rotten flesh falling off. He felt somewhat shocked.
So it turned out Fang Heng hadn’t shown his true strength in the arena!
This level of power counted as top-tier among warriors in the arena.
After more than ten minutes of continuous fighting, with a booming explosion, the entire evil fetus suddenly shattered!
"Chi! Chi chi!!!"
Large chunks of rotten flesh were scattered in all directions, some falling on the holy barrier in front of Nasir, making sharp hissing sounds that startled Nasir, causing him to step back two paces.
The remaining large chunks of rotten flesh fell on the cavern walls and ground, corroding the grotto madly.
The entire grotto was filled with an extremely foul smell.
Hmm?
Fang Heng noticed a dark wooden block inside the exploded evil fetus.
The wooden block lay among the rotten flesh but was unaffected by the strong corrosive effect, remaining intact.
Could it be something valuable?
Fang Heng’s heart stirred, and he raised his hand.
Whoosh!
The dark wooden block flew toward Fang Heng, controlled by his mental power, and he caught it in his palm to examine.
What was this thing?
The wood looked unusual, very heavy to hold, and it was unclear which type of tree it came from. One side had a raven symbol, and the back was covered with dense special patterns.
It resembled alchemy glyphs, but it was uncertain which ancient language system it belonged to.
"Fang Heng, brother, are you okay?"
Nasir called out, waving from inside the holy barrier.
"Yeah, I’m fine." Fang Heng walked over to Nasir, motioned to the wooden block in his hand, and tossed it to him, asking, "Look at this, do you know what it is?"
Nasir took the wooden block, turned it over several times, then threw it back to Fang Heng. "No idea. Doesn’t seem like ordinary wood. Keep it for now; I’ll check the records."
"Okay."
Fang Heng shrugged and put the wooden block back in his backpack.
"Brother Fang, I don’t know what that wooden block is, but I do know about that."
Nasir pointed toward the area where the evil fetus had died.
Fang Heng followed Nasir’s direction and looked at the center of the cavern where the evil fetus had been.
There, mid-air, floated a dim gray aura.
"What is that?"
"Ancient knowledge."
"The evil fetus devoured many evil beings from the Endless Domain. Some of those life forms contained ancient knowledge inside. The evil fetus couldn’t digest it, so it accumulated inside."
Nasir explained, "If absorbed, it can greatly increase occult knowledge and occult abilities. I heard you studied the Occult. This thing would definitely be useful to you!"
Fang Heng nodded lightly.
So it was a good thing.
Nasir warned, "But be careful. Among the ancient knowledge, there may still be some evil fetus aura mixed in. Reckless absorption could cause backlash. It’s best to take it back first, find a way to purify the aura completely, and only use it when it’s safe."
