Blue light flashed brilliantly.
Carrying astonishing momentum and piercing sharpness, the ice spear directly shattered the undead crystal and pierced straight through it.
Instantly, the ghost let out a shrill scream.
Its crystal shattered, the ghostly mist abruptly dispersed, and it died on the spot.
Only after confirming the ghost was completely dead did Fang Yu cautiously approach and continue circling around the great lake.
After quite some time, and after confirming that nothing unusual happened, Fang Yu looked toward the great lake, hesitating internally about whether he should dive beneath it.
The dense elemental energy gathering here meant treasures were likely hidden beneath the lake.
But danger accompanied opportunity.
The ghost and the rotten corpse he encountered when first entering the ruins were perfect examples.
Opportunity and danger coexisted!
After thinking for a moment, Fang Yu stirred the water and boldly dove downward.
Moonlight shone into the lake from above.
He widened his eyes as much as possible, allowing his pupils to absorb every trace of light.
"What the hell…"
After descending more than ten meters, Fang Yu instantly felt his scalp go numb.
At the bottom of the lake, everything was dead and desolate.
One corpse after another lay scattered throughout the lake.
Deathly silence carried both desolation and eerie terror.
This was no lake at all, it was clearly a burial pit.
There were hundreds of corpses here.
The center of the lake was practically filled and piled high with them.
Inside the lake were human skeletons, all with disheveled hair.
Within the dim lakebed, they created an intensely creepy atmosphere.
There were also skeletons of various fierce beasts and savage birds.
Even now, remnants of their terrifying aura remained.
Many belonged to demon species Fang Yu had never seen or even heard of before.
Fang Yu's gaze turned solemn.
Despite being a lake, it contained such a horrifying scene that it sent chills through one's heart.
However, before Fang Yu could continue marveling at it, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
He abruptly turned around.
Right behind him, movement began among the pile of human corpses.
Suddenly, he vaguely saw pairs of gloomy eyes opening one after another.
Through the piled corpses, cold ghostly light shone out.
In the dark lakewater, Fang Yu's scalp tingled as he instantly rushed upward.
At that moment, a corpse grabbed onto his ankle.
"Telekineses!"
Without hesitation, Fang Yu explosively released his spatial power.
An invisible claw formed and seized the corpse before violently flinging it into the distance.
He quickly freed himself and burst out of the water with a loud splash, rushing onto the shore.
However Shrill cries echoed from behind him, occasionally mixed with eerie laughter.
Fang Yu turned around.
Through the moonlight illuminating the lake, he clearly saw something trying to crawl out from within the water.
Almost instantly, the lake trembled.
A dark green-black hand stretched outward and grabbed the muddy edge of the lake.
Then, a horrifying figure slowly rose from within the great lake.
Under the bright moonlight shining down from above, Fang Yu finally saw its appearance clearly.
It wore tattered clothing.
Its face was swollen and heavily rotten.
Its lifeless eyeballs bulged outward.
Its hair resembled dried grass, chaotically piled atop its head.
Haaah!
It raised its head toward the moonlight above and exhaled a mouthful of murky corpse qi.
Two sharp fangs looked especially horrifying.
"A Rotten Corpse?"
The familiar sinister chill descended again, invading Fang Yu's body and causing goosebumps to rise across his skin.
While rapidly retreating, Fang Yu continued observing it.
Wrapped in ragged clothing, the terrifying figure suddenly leaped forward, charging after him like a starving tiger pouncing on prey.
Its speed made evasion impossible.
Fang Yu turned his head slightly, narrowing his eyes.
His expression remained calm, yet a sharp aura like the edge of a sword spread from his body.
He activated his Boots Magic Tool.
Blue radiance flashed beneath his feet as wind currents stirred around him.
In an instant, Fang Yu flashed past the Rotten Corpse's side, the stench of decay filling his nose.
"Fiery Fist: Exploding Heavens!"(Mid-Tier Level 1)
After arriving behind the Rotten Corpse, a Star Path flashed as a Star Map bloomed into existence.
Flames erupted forth.
Firelight clashed violently against the dark night while scorching heat waves surged outward furiously.
When the surrounding temperature reached its peak, Fang Yu violently threw out his fist.
A gigantic flaming fist that tore through the darkness streaked across the sky.
Bang!
The massive flaming fist smashed heavily into the back of the Rotten Corpse's head.
It felt as though it had struck steel.
Aside from igniting several strands of grass-like hair, it caused absolutely no damage.
"This defense an Iron Bone skull?"
Fang Yu was inwardly shocked.
Then he saw the Rotten Corpse rapidly turn around, baring its fangs as it spat out foul-smelling gas.
It leaped into the air and viciously bit toward Fang Yu's throat.
Fang Yu clearly sensed the Rotten Corpse's attack, allowing him to react and evade in advance.
The Boots Magic Tool on his feet shone with dazzling blue radiance.
Before the Rotten Corpse could react, Fang Yu slid across the ground, carving a long trail through the wasteland.
Boom!
The Rotten Corpse wrapped in tattered clothing missed its attack entirely.
Hrrrgh!!
The Rotten Corpse, with hair like dried grass, let out a roar that shook the eardrums.
The brutality within its bulging eyes intensified even further.
Its knees bent violently as it lunged toward Fang Yu again.
Its speed was comparable to a car racing at full speed.
A foul wind rushed toward him as the terrifying undead creature closed in instantly.
"So strong!"
"Little Snow Girl, help me!" Fang Yu called inwardly to the Little Snow Girl.
"Yingying~~~"
The Little Snow Girl let out anxious cries.
Still within the Contract Space, she resembled a clingy little bird as she crashed directly into Fang Yu's soul chest.
Very quickly, frost overflowed from Fang Yu's skin, impatiently trying to freeze everything around him.
Even the powerful mountain of flames surrounding him could not stop the flood-like surge of ice from erupting outward!
"Ice Wings!"
Ice rapidly condensed as a pair of magnificent ice wings appeared.
With a flap of the wings, Fang Yu soared upward, narrowly avoiding the Rotten Corpse's sharp claws.
"Ice Lock: Bone Husk!"(Mid-Tier Level 2)
Fang Yu shouted loudly.
Standing high in the air with black hair dancing wildly, he directly unleashed his magic energy as two ice chains shot out from his hands.
Puchi!
One ice chain streaked across the sky and pierced through the Rotten Corpse's body.
It let out a miserable scream while spraying blood and staggering backward.
In the next moment, Fang Yu's aura surged powerfully as he manipulated the second ice chain to strangle it.
The ice chain wrapped around the Rotten Corpse's body.
Its body emitted buzzing vibrations as miserable shrieks instantly rang out.
The Rotten Corpse screamed furiously.
Swinging its right hand, it unleashed tremendous force and shattered the ice chain before turning to flee.
"Ice Lock!"
Fang Yu shouted coldly.
His eyes blazed brightly as another ice chain shot forth, piercing through the heavens and arriving before the Rotten Corpse in an instant.
Roar!!
The Rotten Corpse screamed miserably.
It tried using its copper skin and iron bones skull to resist head-on, but it was too late.
Its body was pierced through once again by the ice chain.
Another crack appeared across its body.
It was now heavily injured and could no longer escape.
The Rotten Corpse roared furiously.
It let out unwilling, enraged howls as scarlet light surged deep within its protruding eyes.
It wanted to cast demon magic and make a final desperate struggle.
"Time to finish this."
Seeing that no one was around to interfere and that the creatures within the great lake had not emerged, Fang Yu prepared to kill it cleanly and decisively this time.
Shua!
Empowered by the Little Snow Girl's ice power, the ice chains in the area shone brilliantly and became even larger.
Buzz!
The ice chain, now several meters long, tore through the sky.
At this moment, the entire area boiled with energy.
Aside from the ear-shattering sound of the chain tearing through the air, no other sound existed.
Wherever the ice chain passed, scarlet light was pierced apart.
Nothing could withstand it.
As light flickered brilliantly, the chain pierced directly into the Rotten Corpse's body, shattering its flesh and cracking apart its skull.
In an instant, the Rotten Corpse's body exploded into pieces that scattered everywhere before crashing into the muddy ground.
Its remnant soul floated out and was collected by Fang Yu's soul vessel.
