Chapter 66

At this moment, Zheng Dongming had lost all the grace of a well-bred young man. He looked like a stray dog with its hind legs broken, running out of breath, tongue hanging out, and it seemed that a few more steps would make him foam at the mouth and have a seizure!

He also caught sight of Li Yao, and his eyes instantly lit up with hope. He ran over in wild excitement, leaping the last few steps like a hungry tiger pouncing on a sheep, diving straight into the supply point!

"What happened? Where's your Puchi Beast?"

Li Yao asked in great surprise. On Devil Dragon Island, every contestant carried a Puchi Beast, which was not only a tool for scoring but also a last resort for survival!

"It was eaten!"

Zheng Dongming sprawled on the ground, limbs spread out, panting heavily, looking like a man who had narrowly escaped death.

"Eaten? What could be so powerful!"

Li Yao was shocked. How could there be such a ferocious monster on Devil Dragon Island? It was too careless with the contestants' lives!

Before Zheng Dongming could answer, a deafening roar came from not far away, making Li Yao's ears ring.

Accompanied by the roar, several trees swayed and one ancient tree was directly thrown out!

A monster over four meters tall, with no skin, as if made entirely of muscle, leaped out, stomping heavily on the ancient tree, which snapped with a "crack." The monster's speed then increased dramatically, charging recklessly toward the supply point!

"What is this thing!" Li Yao was speechless.

Before the competition, Xiao Ji had introduced all the monsters and demonized plants on Devil Dragon Island in detail. Li Yao did not remember such a powerful monster!

How could the organizers release such a powerful monster? High school students could never withstand such a ferocious beast!

"Who knows, be careful, this monster has already killed seven contestants!" Zheng Dongming said shockingly.

As if to confirm his words, the monster slammed into the defensive rune array surrounding the supply point!

Dozens of semi-transparent attack runes instantly appeared in the air, generating hundreds of electric currents, forming a dazzling and impenetrable electric net. The monster howled in pain, smoke rising from its body.

But even under such intense electric attacks, the monster still resisted, advancing step by step!

The light of the defensive rune array flickered, and the electric net was about to be torn apart, shattered!

"Even the defensive rune array can't stop it? Zheng, how did you provoke this monster to the point of relentless pursuit?"

Li Yao's scalp tingled. This monster was too terrifying, far beyond his ability to handle.

"I just saw an injustice and stabbed it in the butt with my sword, but I accidentally hit its anus!" Zheng Dongming sighed, looking helpless.

Li Yao was speechless. Upon closer inspection, he saw that a half of a chainsaw sword was indeed still wobbling in the monster's bloodied buttocks.

The other half of the blade was completely embedded in the monster's body, about a meter long, and even that couldn't kill it. This monster's vitality was truly astonishing!

Li Yao swallowed hard, instinctively looking behind him.

"There's no point in trying to escape. This monster is probably a Giant-Eyed Ape. In the jungle, its speed is much faster than ours, so there's no chance! Damn it, where are the cultivators? They haven't come to rescue us for so long, this is really going to cost us our lives!"

Zheng Dongming struggled to sit up, spitting out a mouthful of blood, with a bitter smile.

Li Yao looked up and saw Xiao Ji's eyes blank, spinning chaotically in the air. With each thunderclap, it trembled violently, making a "squeaking" sound.

Xiao Ji's connection with the Liao Yuan had been cut off, and it could only record everything. The information would be transmitted to the Liao Yuan once the spirit network was restored.

In an instant, Li Yao's face turned extremely ugly.

"Roar!"

At this moment, the Giant-Eyed Ape let out a long roar, tearing apart a semi-transparent rune with one claw!

A clear gap appeared in the electric net, and it took a big step forward.

"Bad, the defensive rune array can't hold it back, it will break in at any moment!"

Zheng Dongming shakily stood up, staring intently at the Giant-Eyed Ape, and said nervously, "Li Yao, I know you rose like a comet and must have had some extraordinary experiences. Do you have any secret techniques or can you transform instantly to boost your combat power tenfold? Use them now, this is a critical moment, don't pretend to be weak anymore, Li Yao!"

Li Yao was speechless, silent for a moment, and then said coldly, "Sorry, this is already my strongest state."

"What, you can't even transform?"

Zheng Dongming looked at him with disdain, gritted his teeth, and said, "Alright, then it's up to me!"

Li Yao couldn't help but want to give this guy a hard knock on the head: "If you have a secret technique, why didn't you use it earlier? Why so much talk!"

Zheng Dongming's expression suddenly became extremely painful, his eyes filled with sorrow, and he said through gritted teeth, "You don't understand, this is my last killing move, activated by my lifeblood. Once used, it consumes a lot of energy, and I need to abstain from sex for three months to recover!"

"Three months, no women for three whole months! Damn monster, I'll tear you to pieces, turn you into mush!"

Zheng Dongming's expression was extremely fierce, his aura expanding wildly, becoming even more frenzied than the Giant-Eyed Ape.

"Rip!"

Zheng Dongming tore off his camouflage combat suit, revealing a body of white, fat, and soft flesh.

"Swish!"

He threw the camouflage suit into the air, inadvertently covering Li Yao's Puchi Beast.

Xiao Ji, like a headless fly, spun around, its short wings unable to pull the camouflage suit off its head.

"What are you doing?"

Li Yao was shocked. If Xiao Ji's view was blocked, it couldn't spray the protective gel in time—though the gel might not stop the monster, it was better than nothing!

Zheng Dongming spread his arms, and countless crimson true qi shot out from his pores, forming a blood mist above his head.

Zheng Dongming chanted, his hands rapidly forming seals, changing over a hundred seals in an instant.

As the seals changed, the blood mist above his head transformed strangely, from a chaotic mass of blood to the shapes of various fierce beasts and birds, then into the forms of warriors with sharp weapons and armor, and finally into a blood-colored demon with three heads and six arms, swallowing clouds and spitting mist!

Zheng Dongming was connected to this blood-colored demon by countless blood lines, the blood mist continuously absorbing his lifeblood. His originally plump body was quickly reduced to a skeleton, his characteristic dimples disappearing, his eye sockets deeply sunken, looking like a skeleton.

At this moment, the Giant-Eyed Ape tore through the last defensive rune!

A "bang" sounded in the air, the invisible barrier shattered, and the last trace of electricity disappeared.

The Giant-Eyed Ape roared, pounding its chest twice, and leaped in front of the two men!

Zheng Dongming took a deep, deep, deep, deep breath.

As he inhaled, the blood-colored demon was sucked back into his body. His limbs and head remained bony, but his belly swelled like a balloon, the skin stretched to transparency, with a faint glow of blood inside.

"Devil Blood Cannon—Roar!"

Zheng Dongming opened his mouth to the limit, as if his jaw had dislocated, and a crimson blood mist shot out from his throat, forming a fierce blood column that struck the Giant-Eyed Ape's chest!

Boom!

The entire world trembled, and Li Yao heard the roars of countless fierce beasts and the screams of demons. A transparent hole appeared in the Giant-Eyed Ape's chest, piercing through from front to back!

The blood mist had strong corrosive properties, continuously eroding the Giant-Eyed Ape's internal organs, making a "sizzling" sound and emitting a foul odor.

"Screech! Screech!" The Giant-Eyed Ape screamed, its baby-like face showing extreme pain.

"Bang!"

Zheng Dongming's blood cannon seemed to have cost him half his life, and he collapsed, unable to get up.

But this Giant-Eyed Ape, injected with stimulants, had an incredibly strong vitality. Despite the chainsaw sword in its buttocks and the hole through its chest, its internal organs eroded by the blood mist, it still staggered forward, its long arms flailing, trying to tear Zheng Dongming to pieces!

Li Yao secretly marveled, pointing at Zheng Dongming and shouting, "Brother Ape, we have no grudges, the one who stabbed your butt is him, you two chat, I'll be off!"

He then slipped away, fleeing into the jungle!

"Really? So unrighteous?"

Zheng Dongming was dumbfounded, watching Li Yao disappear into the jungle, almost spitting out another mouthful of blood.

He had befriended countless "pigs and dogs" in his life, but Li Yao was the worst of them all!

The Giant-Eyed Ape "giggled" strangely, as if it had anticipated Li Yao's escape. It looked down at its prey, raising its arm, which was thicker than Zheng Dongming's waist.

"Bro, I was wrong, can you give me a chance?"

Looking at the Giant-Eyed Ape's huge fist, Zheng Dongming's face was full of sincerity, apologizing from the bottom of his heart.

The Giant-Eyed Ape sneered, about to smash Zheng Dongming's head into mush, but suddenly stiffened, a tangerine-red mark appearing on its neck.

The smell of burning flesh filled the air.

The tangerine-red mark grew longer and thicker, instantly crossing the entire neck of the Giant-Eyed Ape.

The Giant-Eyed Ape opened its mouth to roar but made no sound. Its body trembled, and its huge head fell to the ground, rolling around. Its massive, mountain-like body knelt forward and collapsed!

Zheng Dongming, still in shock, looked behind the Giant-Eyed Ape.

Li Yao held the Heaven-Burning Battle Axe, still in the cutting position, his palms bleeding from the force, his body drenched, whether from rain or cold sweat.

"Phew..."

Zheng Dongming took a deep breath, his head hitting the mud, unable to move even a finger.

"Thanks, dear 'pig and dog' friend!" the emaciated little fatty said sincerely.

"Sure, a 'pig and dog' friend is still a friend," Li Yao said with a bitter smile, dragging the Heaven-Burning Battle Axe toward Zheng Dongming.

"Next, are you going to kill me?" Zheng Dongming asked with a bitter smile, calmly.

Li Yao glanced up, seeing Xiao Ji covered by the camouflage suit, flying far away, unable to hear their conversation in the storm.

"Yes."

Li Yao nodded, saying calmly.
