"Truly ruthless..."

When Qin Fang arrived, he happened to witness such a scene.

The zombie that had already died was being held by seven zombies, and then suddenly pulled apart... The previously iron-hard body was torn into pieces as easily as paper in the hands of these zombies.

Poof~~~

The zombie's body, which had been wholly burned by Qin Fang's flames, was ripped into seven or eight pieces, and these zombies seemed to do more than just tear; they stuffed these body fragments into their mouths and voraciously crunched down on them.

In no time at all, the massive zombie corpse was completely divided and consumed by these seven zombies, leaving not even a tiny residue...

"Hiss~~~"

Even Qin Fang couldn't help but suck in a breath.

The reason was simple. The zombies that devoured the dead zombie's body became even more bizarre, with a significant boost in their strength... A mysterious glow seemed to ripple off their bodies, making Qin Fang a bit uneasy.

"Seven zombies together are much more troublesome than just one..."

Looking at the scene before him, Qin Fang couldn't help but marvel.

Though these zombies had been dead for years, they were much harder to deal with than ordinary people. If seven zombies gathered together, their power would be astonishing... Even a Supreme Realm Powerhouse wouldn't have a chance but to flee.

To know that the dead zombie, even after being burned, was only killed but its defense didn't decrease too much, likely not inferior by a bit to a real Supreme Realm Powerhouse... Yet it was torn into pieces by seven zombies working together.

Qin Fang's physical defense was strong, but only slightly better than a Great Grandmaster Level Expert, far from the nearly invincible Supreme Realm Powerhouse, naturally unable to withstand the zombies' attacks.

If seven zombies came together, they'd be terrifyingly formidable, enduring strikes while aggressively attacking, with nothing to block their path...

At this moment, the other seven zombies that devoured the dead zombie seemed to sense something, their blood-red eyes simultaneously looking towards Qin Fang, sending a chill down his spine and sweat on his forehead.

"No way, this sensitive?"

Qin Fang hadn't gotten too close at this time, separated by a distance of seventy to eighty meters, which was the extreme range of his small map's monitoring scope. Yet unexpectedly, these zombies noticed his presence and... began advancing towards him.

"No, no way but to give it a try..."

The zombies advanced towards Qin Fang, their pace not very rapid but definitely more than slow, slightly faster than normal human speed but still lagging behind any Qinggong expert.

In other words, with Qin Fang's speed, he could easily evade the zombies' pursuit...

At this time, retreating was certainly the wisest choice, but Qin Fang was clearly unsatisfied just giving up like this. The number of zombies indeed increased several times, and their strength was somewhat enhanced, but Qin Fang's Flame Sword Qi was also greatly strengthened to several times, if he seized the opportunity there was possibly a chance for total elimination.

Having thought of this, Qin Fang moved, heading towards the zombies, clutching the Flowing Shadow Divine Sword, his body in an extremely tense state, even fully unleashing the power from the Blood Martial Secret Tome, surrounded by a faint blood mist.

"Roar~~ Roar~~"

These zombies could indeed sense Qin Fang's presence. Regardless of Qin Fang changing directions midway, they captured it instantly and continued the chase towards him...

What surprised Qin Fang more was that the difference between these seven zombies and just one zombie wasn't simply multiplied by seven; there seemed to be a human-like intelligence among them, allowing them to split up and encircle him.

Thus while Qin Fang changed positions, the seven zombies had already completed an encirclement. When Qin Fang approached a rock wall of the Treasure Repository, he found the zombies had surrounded him.

Although the distance between each pair of zombies was slightly wide, it didn't prevent them from mutually forming a cornered stance...

"Too cunning..."

Realizing this, Qin Fang's expression inevitably changed. If the encirclement tightened further, he'd have no opportunity to escape but would have to face these terrifyingly powerful zombies head-on.

"Can't wait any longer..."

Originally, Qin Fang planned to draw away one zombie at a time for a one-on-one wear down, sparing much of the trouble and reducing risk to an extremely low level... But it turned out that Qin Fang's strategy obviously failed, instead falling into the zombies' trap.

Since a one-on-one fight is impossible, Qin Fang can only forcefully make his move... If the encirclement compresses any further, even if he can take down two or three zombies, he himself would be torn to shreds by the remaining ones!

Zombies may not care about the survival of their companions, but Qin Fang cares about his own life and safety, and won't fight these zombies to the death!

Buzz~~

An aggressive Sword Qi was instantly released. With the Blood Martial Secret Tome's enhancement, a hint of blood-colored strength was added to the Sword Qi, making it even more powerful.

At the same time, a fierce fire dragon rushed over, covering Qin Fang's Sword Qi and forming an immensely massive fire dragon. Even the blood energy from the Blood Martial Secret Tome was completely covered... it wasn't gone, just that the flame's power was so strong that it wrapped all those blood energies within.

"Roar roar roar~~~"

These zombies seemed to sense the terrifying nature of Qin Fang's strike, immediately letting out low growls, and even accelerated their pace, charging towards Qin Fang...

"Go to hell!!"

Qin Fang didn't dare delay any longer; these zombies had been thoroughly enraged by him and had become frenzied. If he hesitated any longer, he might be taken down faster. The zombie closest to him was only less than ten meters away.

At this moment, the flame Sword Qi in Qin Fang's hand immediately roared forward to attack, and the wild airwaves squeezed towards the surroundings. The terrible heat even made Qin Fang's own face feel scalding.

Boom~~~

The speed of this strike was extremely fast, and the power of the Sword Qi was terrifying to the utmost... It directly targeted the closest zombie, and the fierce fire dragon instantly engulfed this zombie completely.

This zombie didn't plan to evade, but unfortunately, its speed was still a bit slower, and Qin Fang's flame Sword Qi became even more violent, expanding quite a bit, and completely enveloping it...

"Burst through..."

After this strike, Qin Fang immediately erupted with the fastest speed, regardless of whether this zombie still had the strength to strike back, he squeezed past the zombie's body and broke out of the encirclement formed by several zombies.

This was the only chance as the encirclement got smaller and smaller; losing this opportunity would make it very difficult for Qin Fang to escape unscathed... Later, if he was surrounded by zombies, even a random hit from them could severely injure Qin Fang, or even leave him dying or dead!

Sizzle sizzle sizzle~~

Charging past the burning zombie, such sounds echoed by his ears—the sound of flames igniting the zombie's body—and sounded quite delightful to Qin Fang's ears, a piece of very good news.

This sound was much more pronounced than before, indicating that Qin Fang's flame Sword Qi was indeed much stronger, and even the combustion speed was a lot faster.

Of course, this process was extremely dangerous; the zombie that was ignited and the one nearby almost struck towards Qin Fang... If Qin Fang's speed was just a tad slower, maybe just one or two seconds, he would have been intercepted by the zombies.

If it ended like that, then Qin Fang would indeed be doomed...

Fortunately, Qin Fang grasped the opportunity quite accurately, barely skimming past those flames and the zombies' sharp, malicious claws, and charged out of the encirclement...

Boom!!

Almost immediately after Qin Fang rushed out, just as he steadied himself, a loud noise came from behind—a heavy object falling to the ground...

Qin Fang immediately turned around to see that the zombie which had been ignited couldn't stand firm and fell directly to the ground. Though its hands could still move, they were also being scorched by flames, and even...

Splutter splutter~~~

This zombie that caught fire wasn't a problem, but it ignited another zombie that was preparing to assist and surround Qin Fang...

"This is indeed a pleasant surprise..."

Even Qin Fang, witnessing such a scene, couldn't help but mutter with a strange look.

He originally just wanted to break out of the encirclement and had no intention to take advantage of the situation further... But he didn't expect these zombies were even more fragile than he imagined; the corpse aura on them was practically like natural gas, igniting with the slightest spark!

"Heh heh, I'll give you a hand..."

However, this zombie only had its arm ignited, and the injuries weren't so severe. As it attempted to smother the flames, it unexpectedly lit up its other hand too... Now things got much worse.

Yet this wasn't enough to satisfy Qin Fang. He immediately smirked mischievously and muttered before sending another flame Sword Qi, seeing as he wasn't too far away... (To be continued.
