CHAPTER 1770: CHAPTER 1764: UNFAIR BATTLE

Ee~ ya!

Faced with the tentacles flowing like a waterfall, the opponent quickly retaliated. The withered hands and human heads emerging from the black fog didn’t retract; instead, they swung wildly, with each head opening a mouth that others might barely notice if not closely examined, unleashing screams that made anyone’s entire body cringe and shiver with unease!

The sound, like nails scraping a chalkboard, made one’s body tingle!

The terrifying sound waves caused ripples in Tang Ye’s vision, and then countless tentacles pierced through the black fog, feeling a slight resistance. At the same moment, Tang Ye was blasted away by the sound waves!

Before he could steady his body, another withered hand grasped him. Tang Ye looked over, each face grimaced at him fiercely. His attack seemed ineffective against this creature. He couldn’t help but furrow his brows. Soon, Tang Ye noticed that each face in front of him seemed angry, but this anger didn’t appear to be directed at him. He thought about the light that suddenly appeared in his eyes and felt he had guessed the reason.

"Lu Xiaojie?"

The hand gripping him began to exert force, trying desperately to press him down. However, Tang Ye wouldn’t let it achieve its purpose; he soon fought back with force. Unfortunately, his combat ability was restricted, weakened, and in this power struggle, he fell behind, being pressed down, and both were plummeting rapidly!

Taking a moment to glance below, he saw an island surrounded not by the sea, but a gray fog that shared the color of the sky. The island was lush with plants, which seemed unusual, but Tang Ye didn’t examine them closely; he only confirmed the situation, knowing where he and the creature would land.

Since he couldn’t overpower the opponent, Tang Ye abandoned the head-on collision approach. He controlled the tentacles on his body to twist together, swiftly swirling up and plunging into the black fog before him. Finding balance, Tang Ye’s back sprouted a pair of strong arms, squeezing fingers into fists. As muscles bulged, Tang Ye punched upward!

This punch landed solidly, smashing a newly emerged human head back into the black fog. Tang Ye didn’t know how much damage this punch caused, so after this one, a second punch quickly followed, then a third!

Just like that, punch after punch landed with terrifying power, seemingly dispersing all withered hands and human heads!

Soon, the opponent seemed overwhelmed. The withered hands extending from the black fog no longer pressed Tang Ye down but attempted to entwine him, restricting his movement. Tang Ye quickly liquified his body, flowing out from gaps before being entirely sealed by the opponent. He quickly re-solidified, extending fleshy flaps resembling octopus tentacles to entwine the opponent instead!

Then, other parts of his flesh transformed into pairs of arms, ready to swing fists violently like before. But at this moment, Tang Ye realized he was about to hit the ground and promptly changed his plan, using the fleshy flaps entwined around the opponent to exert force, swapping their positions!

Now, Tang Ye was above, the black fog below, and soon, both crashed heavily to the ground. Under the immense impact, the island split in two with a long crack diagonally running through it, shrouding everything nearby with dust!

After landing, Tang Ye rolled a few times into the massive crevice, grabbing onto the edge of a cliff just in the nick of time. He climbed back with effort, lying down, his gaze fixed ahead. The black fog, which he had tangled with in the air, received the most impact upon landing, bursting apart like scattered black liquid if not looked closely.

The flesh on Tang Ye’s body wriggled as he slowly regained human form. The opponent looked somewhat miserable now, but Tang Ye didn’t let his guard down, staring intently at every piece of the falling body parts.

Soon, the scattered black fog lumps began to move, and Tang Ye’s arms transformed instantly into two giant curved blades, with the red in his eyes deepening!

The scattered fog lumps varied in size; some were as large as a truck tire, while others were smaller than an egg. Yet each lump of black fog seemed to have its own life. Initially motionless, they began to wobble, like jelly, swiftly merging into the air, fusing with other black fog lumps. In an instant, the fragmented black fog reformed completely!

Ya!

No one knew where the scream was directed, but Tang Ye felt a sharp pain in his ears, his consciousness blurred briefly, possibly in just a breath. He regained clarity, but before he could see what was happening, the reformed black fog charge directly at him!

Bang!

Under the intense collision, Tang Ye, with his five-meter-tall muscular frame, was entirely blown away, breaking numerous bizarre plants along the way, sending shattered debris everywhere!

Tang Ye couldn’t control his backward flurry; nothing behind him could stop his figure. Even the massive trees that took a dozen people to encircle seemed made of tofu, exploding into powder upon contact with his back!

His expression turned a bit ugly; the fight was truly frustrating, evidently an unfair battle. If the Nightmare Zombie King fought him in the real world, the most apt comparison would be a weakly built ordinary person against a professional boxing fighter in combat. The former had no chance head-to-head, but now, although the gap remained unchanged, it shifted from a street conflict to a ring fight. The only change was a set of rules; Tang Ye, the "professional boxing fighter," couldn’t use techniques such as "kick," "elbow strike," or attack the opponent’s vital points and dodge his attacks, even fighting with only "one hand"!

As for the Nightmare Zombie King, the "weakly built ordinary person," he could use any means in the ring, even "weapons"!

That’s the feeling!
