CHAPTER 110: CHAPTER 72 NEW WORLD [FLOURISHING GROWTH] (6K)_4

Faced with such a bizarre burrow creature, the crowd was in a panic.

Some people were so weak in the legs that they stood rooted to the spot.

Others were pushing those with weak legs to move.

Zhang Feng, however, turned on a flashlight, placed it on the ground, and then walked towards the burrow creature with his knife.

"Screech!" The burrow creature let out a piercing scream, crawling towards Zhang Feng at an even faster speed.

Zhang Feng judged the distance, and when it was about three meters away, he suddenly drew his knife and slashed sideways at its head!

But at this moment, it suddenly leaped up, its tail curling upwards, gripping the wall with its barbed spikes.

At a quick glance, and due to unclear lighting, it seemed to retreat backward eerily, easily dodging Zhang Feng’s attack.

Simultaneously, using its tail to swing off the wall, its sharp claws came towards Zhang Feng’s face.

Zhang Feng leapt backward to evade it, only to see it return to the wall again.

’A wall-crawling lizard? A flying ghost? Could it really be a spirit?’

Startled, Zhang Feng retreated repeatedly, thinking it had some strange abilities.

But as it chased two steps, Zhang Feng heard a squeaky sound as it moved on the rock wall, as if some sharp tool was scraping against the stone.

’It has no secret technique; its limbs and tail have barbs!’

In an instant, Zhang Feng’s thoughts cleared, his steps kicking up a cloud of dust on the ground, sidestepping its pounce from above.

Whoosh—

It landed on the ground, once more sizing up Zhang Feng.

Zhang Feng stood still, his back against the wall, holding the machete in reverse, the tip pointing downwards.

Thud thud—

The burly man, afraid Zhang Feng was in danger, hurried over with a machete to help.

Even though fear gripped his heart, he didn’t want to abandon his comrade.

The other people had long hidden far away, only watching from a distance.

Zhang Feng kept his gaze on the burrow creature, speaking sideways to stop him: "Don’t come over, don’t add to the chaos, I can’t look after you."

In the moment after he spoke, the burly man hadn’t yet reacted.

The burrow creature again lunged at Zhang Feng.

This time, Zhang Feng did not slash horizontally but swung his right arm, the blade’s light angled upwards, blocking all paths above.

"Screech!" The burrow creature used its old trick again, attempting to hook the rocks above with its tail.

At this moment, Zhang Feng pushed off the wall behind him, suddenly leaping forward, bringing the slanted, upward blade to slash down in reverse from above, aiming for its neck.

The burrow creature barely tilted its head, but there was still a faint sound of flesh being sliced at its neck area.

Yet Zhang Feng did not pause, in the instant it dodged, twisting midair utilized his waist strength, his left hand clenched into a cannon fist, striking directly, ’thud’, hitting its chest cavity.

The feeling of his fist meeting flesh made Zhang Feng feel like he was striking a thick piece of cowhide.

With its heart impacted and power dispersed, it found itself unable to leverage in midair, crashing down to the ground with a clang.

Whoosh whoosh—

After its fall, it tried to support itself with its arms to rise.

Zhang Feng quickly closed in, twisting his wrist, approaching the burrow creature head-on and slashing vertically, drawing a crescent in the dim light to decapitate the creature.

In the next second, its head and body fell to the ground.

Only the sound of blood flowing softly remained, and everything quieted down.

The distant crowd stood in shock, rooted to their spots.

Only the burly man stepped forward a few more steps subconsciously, asking Zhang Feng, "You... you... weren’t hurt, right?"

The tremor in his voice revealed his disbelief that Zhang Feng had truly killed a ’monster.’

"I’m not hurt."

Zhang Feng wiped the sticky blood from his face, shaking his slightly sore arm, "But I must admit, this thing was quite intimidating, I almost fell for its flying trick."
