Chapter 345: Flames of Destruction
He appreciated his masterpiece with a morbid glee, explaining madly:
"The 'Enchanting Fragrance' I released is a super potent hallucinogen, capable of paralyzing your nerves instantly, turning your limbs limp and your mind into mush!"
"This black 'Bone-eating Maggot', just a drop can poison a full-grown elephant, it's also my treasured masterpiece!"
"As for the yellow slime you just experienced, that's the essence of my venom, capable of dehydrating your internal organs and flesh, causing rapid decay from the inside out!"
"Under my triple poisons, let's see how long you can hold out?"
"Heheheheh... I'll let you thoroughly enjoy this feast of death!"
As he spoke, the entire Water Prison quickly transformed into a pure, ominous, black sphere.
The silhouette of Fang Cheng, wrapped inside, was no longer visible.
The terrifying dose of venom was enough to make Cheng Leyi and Lin Xuhao panic with fright.
They began to genuinely worry for the man.
If White Owl really died from the poison, or lost his combat ability.
Then, next, it would be their turn to face this completely deranged venomous monster.
The giant black water sphere trembled slightly, its surface rippling with waves.
It seemed the prey trapped within was making one last desperate attempt to escape.
"Struggle all you want, it's all in vain anyway!"
Scorpion's voice echoed in the rainy night, filled with sick confidence.
"This is my meticulously constructed Domain, my world!"
"As long as this rain continues, I possess endless, inexhaustible Strength!"
"Daring to oppose me is to oppose the entire world!"
The rain poured harder, threatening to turn into a severe storm.
The thick darkness seemed intent on swallowing the isolated neighborhood whole.
The surface of the giant black water sphere began to release wisps of white smoke due to the highly corrosive venom.
Cheng Leyi's fingers clutched tightly at her skirt, her heart sinking as if submerged underwater, making it difficult to breathe.
"Hiss, the toxin's too potent, it's even emitting smoke..."
Lin Xuhao inhaled sharply, his face pale: "Looks like White Owl is doomed."
However, just when the two thought everything had ended, a sudden change erupted!
The "white smoke" emerging from the sphere's surface seemed to thicken and become increasingly exaggerated.
It didn't resemble the effects of any corrosive substance, it looked more like... the water was boiling.
Countless bubbles roiled from within the water sphere, the entire sphere twisting and expanding violently.
Scorpion's taunts abruptly halted, replaced by a terrified scream:
"What's happening? Why... why is it so hot?!"
Ssst——
A speck of crimson gold flame suddenly shot forth from the jet-black Water Prison.
Like the first shining Star in the night.
Then came the second, and the third...
Countless brilliant golden light arrows seemed to pierce the night itself, puncturing the entire Water Prison with a thousand holes, casting the entire street in a crimson glow.
Boom——
Before Cheng Leyi and Lin Xuhao could react, the Water Prison exploded.
The combined heat and pressure erupted like a dropped bomb.
The boiling steam and massive waves of water transformed into a destructive shock wave, sweeping outward with a deafening roar.
"Aaaaah——"
Scorpion let out what might have been the most wretched scream since its birth.
In the exploding splash, a silhouette of a black water figure staggered backward repeatedly.
Its partially liquid body was thoroughly evaporated upon contact with the flames, suffering unprecedented damage.
At the same time, right at the center of the erupting flames, a figure slowly stepped out.
The raincoat on him had long been reduced to ashes, leaving only the white Evil Ghost Mask on his face, more sinister amidst the blazing flames.
The crimson gold flames clung to his bronze skin like a living being, outlining muscles as perfect and majestic as a sculpture.
Every inch radiated explosive Strength.
He stood stark naked, displaying the most primitive allure of a man, like a War God stepping forth from the fiery Hell.
Witnessing this, Cheng Leyi missed a breath, then caught it back, her cheeks instantly flushed red.
She wanted to turn her head but couldn't resist continuing to stare at that masculine physique.
"Oh my..."
Beside her, Lin Xuhao also swallowed hard, admiring from the heart:
"Those muscles, that physique... it's perfect! If only I could squeeze them hard..."
Cheng Leyi turned red at his words and glared at him fiercely.
As if saying, watch your image, you're a damn man.
Fang Cheng did not notice the thoughts of the two onlookers.
His eyes, burning with flames, seemed as if they could ignite the air, firmly locked onto the distant black figure revealing its true form.
"The game must end."
He suddenly made a move.
With a step forward, the asphalt underfoot cracked loudly.
His entire body transformed into a crimson streak that ripped through the rain curtain, instantly rushing to the black figure writhing and trying to regroup.
It seemed as if he was waiting for Scorpion to use up all its tricks, before delivering the heaviest, fatal blow.
Bam!
A straightforward straight punch completely blasted apart the half-formed body that Scorpion had just gathered!
The black liquid mixed with rain and steam splattered everywhere.
It even sizzled under the searing flames.
In the blink of an eye, aided by the liquid supplement from the torrential rain, Scorpion's body regained its basic outline.
But Fang Cheng had anticipated this, and his attacks came one after another, once more exploding it apart.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
Every punch and every kick carried a scorching crimson flame that burnt everything to ashes.
A powerful swing punch smashed Scorpion's head into a splash.
A cunning elbow strike swept from bottom to top, tearing open its chest entirely.
A vicious knee strike, like a battering ram, created a massive hollow in its waist!
Scorpion was completely panicked.
Against absolute strength and speed, the abilities he prided himself on seemed like a joke, completely reduced to a passive beating sandbag.
He let out a garbled scream, wanting to escape in liquid form.
But his toxin-stained pure black body was too conspicuous in the firelight.
Moreover, Fang Cheng was much faster, shadowing him closely and not allowing him any chance to catch his breath.
Cheng Leyi and Lin Xuhao were completely stunned.
This was no longer a battle.
But a one-sided, extremely cruel slaughter.
The masked man seemed to be using this venomous creature to show them the art of combat, the pure aesthetics of violence.
"Ah——"
Scorpion screamed as Fang Cheng's powerful whip kick brutally sent him flying into the sky.
Then, Fang Cheng's scarlet gaze slightly focused.
He stomped down fiercely with both feet, and the asphalt beneath instantly caved in, exploding into a web of cracks!
His entire body shot up like a cannonball, quickly reaching level with Scorpion in mid-air.
Their eyes met.
Fang Cheng's gaze burned like molten lava, fierce and violent.
On Scorpion's liquid face, there was only endless panic, its mouth opening as if begging for mercy.
But it was too late.
In the next instant, Fang Cheng's arms turned into countless blurry crimson punches.
Thud thud thud thud——thud thud thud thud——
The airtight punches hammered like a thousand heavy drums, sound explosions merging into a deafening roar!
These were no longer fists, but a burning hurricane, several roaring fire dragons!
The terrifying pressure of the punches instantly swept away the surrounding rain, the light from the flames illuminating the entire dark street!
Scorpion's black liquid body writhed violently, collapsing and evaporating amidst the raging storm of fiery punches!
Its volume shrank visibly at an alarming speed, wanting to scream in terror, but unable to utter a single syllable.
Ultimately, its abilities were completely exhausted, forced to revert to the naked man's form mid-air.
As he was about to fall to the ground.
What awaited him was the final, decisive blow, concentrated with all of his strength.
BOOM!!!
The man's body, along with his face of utter despair, was completely smashed by Fang Cheng's punch.
Blood rain, mixed with shattered flesh and bone fragments, blossomed brilliantly in the still-burning crimson light.
Amidst the blood rain, sparks flew.
A robust figure descended from the sky, landing heavily and standing firmly on the ground.
