In the blink of an eye, the number of corpse changers that died under Chu Nan's spider claws exceeded ten.

The special undead with abnormally thick and strong arms made a strange sound, seemingly very angry, and suddenly struck a broken wall with both arms.

With a "boom," the wall shattered, and stones of various sizes shot out like bullets.

A cry of alarm rang out as someone failed to dodge in time and was hit by a stone, instantly getting injured.

The undead with the mutated arms lunged forward, and the crowd dared not resist. Zhuang Qing shouted in anger and was about to block, but was suddenly grabbed by the arm and pulled by the undead.

"Be careful—" Shen Mo shouted sternly, trying to save him, but it was too late. Zhuang Qing was thrown like a piece of trash, flying over ten meters away.

The undead's arms seemed to possess boundless strength.

Just as Zhuang Qing was thrown, a kick came from the air, and the undead crossed its arms to block.

With a "bang," the undead lost its footing and retreated several steps, its eyes, which glowed with a faint red light, showing a hint of surprise.

The one who kicked was Chu Nan.

With one kick, Chu Nan sent the undead with the mutated arms flying back. Chu Nan landed and immediately leaped forward.

The undead roared in anger and struck Chu Nan with both arms as he charged forward.

Chu Nan crouched down and suddenly changed direction, darting past the undead and slashing with the spider claw in his right hand.

A stream of blood splattered, and the undead's body staggered, its left leg severed.

Chu Nan then spun around, and with a powerful kick, a faint glow appeared. The speed and force of this kick were like a cannonball. The undead, whose left leg had been severed and was falling, had no time to react and was kicked in the back.

With a "bang," the undead's body shot up and flew through the air, its back caved in, and its chest exploded, spewing out internal organs and blood.

The power of this kick was so fierce that Shen Mo and Nangong Xiong, among others, drew in a sharp breath.

"Could he be..." Shen Mo was shocked. Originally, he and Zhuang Qing thought Chu Nan was a third-level Awakened like them. However, even with his full strength, he could not have kicked this extremely powerful, almost third-level Awakened, undead with the mutated arms, causing its upper body to explode.

With a "thud," the undead with the mutated arms rolled and fell heavily to the ground, its upper body covered in blood, with many broken ribs protruding from the wounds. Chu Nan had kicked a large hole in its chest.

However, it did not die. Unlike humans, it did not feel pain. It pushed itself up with its hands, despite its broken leg, and leaped forward like a frog, using its remaining leg to propel itself.

Chu Nan narrowed his eyes, holding the spider claw in his right hand, and darted through the approaching corpse changers, moving toward the undead. Suddenly, he gripped the spider claw tightly and slashed down.

With a "swoosh," a faint, sharp light flashed. Shen Mo and Nangong Xiong, who were approaching, felt a chill. They watched as the extremely powerful undead with the mutated arms leaped forward and, as it approached Chu Nan, its body was split open, spewing out a large amount of blood and internal organs. The split body, due to inertia, flew past Chu Nan on both sides.

"Scary..." Shen Mo drew in a sharp breath, unsure whether he was referring to Chu Nan or the spider claw in his hand.

After killing the undead with the mutated arms, Chu Nan inhaled and felt the surge of genetic force being absorbed into his body. Just this one undead provided more force than ten ordinary corpse changers.

The other corpse changers became agitated, seemingly sensing the death of their leader, which had a significant impact on them. Especially the other undead with some intelligence, who looked at Chu Nan with clear fear in their eyes.

Chu Nan did not pause, turning and charging back into the crowd of corpse changers, swinging the spider claw, almost killing one with each strike. No corpse changer could stand against him.

In the blink of an eye, over a hundred corpse changers were lying on the ground, dead.

Not only did Chu Nan perform impressively, but Su Yao also stood out.

Although she was a second-level Awakened, her performance was almost on par with a typical third-level Awakened.

Her second-level Awakened physique, combined with her mastery of various martial arts and combat techniques, far surpassed that of an average second-level Awakened.

She could almost finish off a corpse changer with a single strike, without any hesitation. This level of skill required long-term professional training, which even the current Chu Nan could not achieve.

Therefore, among the group, Chu Nan had the most kills, followed by Su Yao.

Xia Qiu, who had been rather arrogant, broke out in a cold sweat after witnessing everyone's strength, realizing how shallow and ridiculous it was to be proud of being a second-level Awakened.

Suddenly, Shen Mo took a deep breath and shouted, "Withdraw!" He waved his hand, and the two teams led by him and Nangong Xiong began to charge forward.

Chu Nan, Su Yao, Tang Sanli, and others began to retreat.

Zhuang Qing, who had been thrown by the undead with the mutated arms, was already being carried away.

Nangong Xiong's team blocked the advancing corpse changers while retreating, and the others quickly retreated as well.

Several people had already collapsed, suffering from the aftereffects.

In the distance, more corpse changers emerged from the city, and if they did not retreat, they would be overwhelmed by the horde, leading to heavy casualties.

The scouts had already observed this and relayed the information, so Shen Mo ordered an early retreat.

Soon, the group retreated far away, returning to their base from the previous night. The remaining corpse changers gave up the chase, and by the time the large horde arrived, the group had already vanished.

The horde of corpse changers wandered around for a while and then gradually dispersed.

Their thinking patterns were clearly very different from normal humans, acting more on instinct. Normal humans would not let the group escape without continuing the search, leaving no place for them to hide.

The group returned to their base, and everyone looked at Chu Nan with different expressions, unable to hide their surprise.

More surprisingly, Chu Nan did not suffer from the severe aftereffects that the others did.

As a fourth-level Awakened, Chu Nan's physical condition was three times that of an ordinary person. Even with the adrenaline surge, his strong physique could maintain the enhanced strength for a considerable time, and the aftereffects were not as severe as those of the others.

Shen Mo walked up to Chu Nan with a smile, giving him a thumbs up. "Brother Chu Nan, you're really amazing. None of us can match you."

Nangong Xiong laughed and walked over. "Brother, you're not just a third-level Awakened, are you?"

Everyone's attitude toward Chu Nan changed, showing a particularly warm smile.

Zhuang Qing, who was severely injured, lay on the side, his face pale. He thought about his previous rudeness toward Chu Nan and felt a chill. What would have happened if he had angered Chu Nan?

He didn't dare to imagine.

Chu Nan's act of kicking the powerful undead with the mutated arms through the chest and splitting it in two deeply shocked everyone present.

Su Yao and Tang Sanli, who already knew about Chu Nan's strength, were not particularly surprised.

Listening to Shen Mo and Nangong Xiong's questions, Chu Nan smiled calmly and said, "Yes, you will also reach this level soon."

"Fourth-level Awakened?" Shen Mo whispered, his eyes brightening.

Nangong Xiong looked at the spider claw in Chu Nan's hand, licking his lips. "What kind of weapon is this? It's so sharp?"

"A spider claw, indeed, it's quite different from ordinary weapons," Chu Nan stood up and said, "I'll be right back." He flashed away, leaving the area.

Tang Sanli understood that Chu Nan was going to collect more pineal glands.

That day, the group launched three waves of attacks, with each team taking turns. They killed nearly three hundred corpse changers and undead, clearing out most of the corpse changers in the area.

On their side, only three people were severely injured, with no deaths, thanks to Shen Mo's careful planning and the group's默契 cooperation.

Chu Nan collected a total of three hundred pineal glands, including the ones he already had.

This day's harvest made Chu Nan very excited.

Three hundred pineal glands, some of which were from special undead, if all the force within them was absorbed, would he break through again?

Even if he couldn't break through, it wouldn't be far off.

The others also made significant gains, with over five people successfully advancing from first-level to second-level Awakened. Xia Qiu became the fourth third-level Awakened after Chu Nan, Shen Mo, and Nangong Xiong.

Su Yao and Tao Zhi, although they did not break through, were close, especially Su Yao.

As long as they continued with three rounds of attacks like today, they could easily break through to third-level Awakened.

As for the one who had been following them from a distance, Cui Er, he disappeared that day, and no one knew where he went. Chu Nan had noticed him but did not find his trace.
