System: Infinite Evolution into Qilin Bloodline

I once obtained a special item called the Twin Dragon Pillars from a warlord base in a certain country in Southeast Asia.

The double dragon pillars are said to have been used by people in ancient times to tame giant turtles. As long as the double dragon pillars are placed in the water, the giant turtles will only move around them.

The ability Zhang Hao gained after the fusion was similar to this effect: drawing a circle around himself and confining himself to a self-imposed prison.

This ability allows you to define a five-meter diameter area and trap the monster within it.

I had never used this ability before because I thought it was somewhat useless.

It now seems perfect for dealing with phosphorus-carrying parasites.

However, by this time the phosphorus-bearing worms had already spread, and a 5-meter radius was simply not enough to trap them all inside.

Since they can't trap the phosphorescent worms, they might as well trap themselves inside. They can't get out, and the worms can't get in either.

This will buy us time to find a solution.

"Everyone, come closer!"

Zhang Hao moved to the side of the Kunlun Divine Wood Coffin, and then, with a thought, delineated a 5-meter diameter area centered on himself.

The next second, a blue beam of light, about the thickness of a telephone pole, rose from the ground around the perimeter of the circle.

When the phosphorescent worms flew near the pillar of light, they seemed to be blocked by something and could not get past it no matter what they did.

"what happened?"

"They seem to be blocked by something?"

"But there's clearly nothing in front of them, so how come they can't get through?"

……

Zhang Hao didn't expect that the effect of the "Draw a Circle on the Ground to Imprison" ability was only visible to him, and that others couldn't see the blue beam of light at all.

But this is good, it saves us the trouble of explaining what happened.

Simply keeping these strange insects trapped outside isn't a solution; we must find a way to get rid of them.

Fire is definitely not effective against them.

When the wings of the Phosphorus-bearing worms flap, the white scales on them ignite; they are not afraid of fire at all.

Water might be useful, but where could we get water in this cave?

Suddenly, Zhang Hao's gaze was drawn to the Kunlun Divine Wood Coffin.

Legend has it that the Kunlun Divine Wood Coffin grew on Kunlun Mountain and absorbed ten thousand years of cold air, which is why the bodies buried inside remained incorrupt for ten thousand years.

It is likely that its miraculous effects are due to its absorption of the millennia-old cold air of the Kunlun Mountains.

If one were to fuse with the Kunlun Divine Wood Coffin, the resulting special abilities might be related to cold energy.

At that time, releasing cold air would have given the phosphorus-laden worms a good chance to escape if it slowed them down.

Zhang Hao glanced at the people around him and noticed that their attention was now focused on the Phosphorus-Burning Worm.

Taking this opportunity, Zhang Hao placed his hand on the Kunlun Divine Wood Coffin.

"System, fuse with the Kunlun Divine Wood Coffin!"

[Ding, command received, fusion initiation.]

As the system notification sounded, the Kunlun Divine Wood Coffin instantly transformed into a mass of brown liquid, which then broke into countless tiny molecules that enveloped Zhang Hao's entire body.

These molecules seemed to come alive, desperately trying to penetrate his body and fuse with his flesh and blood.

[Ding, congratulations host, 40st fusion complete. Fusion item: Kunlun Divine Wood Coffin.]

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained the fusion item's property: Eternal Frost (Releases eternal frost from Kunlun Mountain, instantly freezing items).]

"Fuck!"

Zhang Hao was extremely excited. He hadn't expected that, just as he had thought, the new abilities brought by fusing with the Kunlun Divine Wood Coffin were related to cold energy.

Moreover, the effect was even better than expected, capable of freezing items instantly, far beyond simply slowing down monsters.

With a thought, he released a chilling aura towards the insect cloud in front of the pillar of light.

A thick cloud of white mist appeared out of nowhere, floated in mid-air, and then slowly moved forward.

Zhang Hao discovered that he could control the direction and speed of the white mist with his will.

"Click, click!"

Wherever the white mist passed, everything was instantly frozen.

The green cloud of phosphorescent worms in the air instantly turned white, and upon closer inspection, they were all frozen into ice lumps.

Once frozen, the phosphorus-bearing worms fell straight down from the sky, cracking into pieces upon hitting the ground.

Before long, a layer of shattered, phosphorescent worm corpses piled up in front of the beam of light.

They were frozen, and once they shattered, they never came back to life.

Zhang Hao finally breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

He manipulated the cold air to move rapidly around, and soon the phosphorescent worms in the cave were completely wiped out.

After clearing away the phosphorescent worms, he had another thought, and the chill suddenly vanished from mid-air.

Seeing that there was no danger, he removed the "drawing a circle on the ground to imprison" device.

All of this happened in an instant, and it took Wu Tianzhen and the others quite a while to react.

"It's cold, so cold!"

"What was that cloud of white mist that suddenly appeared? I felt the temperature around me drop by at least several tens of degrees as soon as it appeared!"

"I think it's more than tens of degrees Celsius. It can freeze the fiery, phosphorus-laden worms instantly. I'm afraid it can't be done without temperatures below zero degrees Celsius!"

"It was absolutely terrifying. Luckily, it only attacked the Phosphorous Filth Worms. If it had passed by us, we would probably be lying on the ground and shattered into ice shards by now."

Suddenly, the fat man thought of something and said, "Hey, don't you guys find this strange?"

"What's weird?"

Wu Tianzhen, Yi Sa, Ding Yudie and the others looked at the fat man with puzzled expressions.

"When we were attacked by the resurrected soldiers, a vortex suddenly appeared, sacrificing the soldiers and the general."

When we were attacked by the Phosphorous Filth Worms and were unable to resist, a sudden burst of cold air appeared and froze them all, killing them.

In the past, when we encountered danger, we were always very lucky and managed to overcome it.

Once or twice might be a coincidence, but when these things happen repeatedly, do you still think it's a coincidence?

"Fatty, you know what, it's really just like you said. Even a chosen one wouldn't have this much luck!"

"You mean someone is secretly helping us?"

"if not?"

At this moment, everyone who had come to their senses turned around and looked at Zhang Hao.

"Uncle, you're the most capable person among us, so tell me, did you do all of this?"

"Brother Zhang Hao, I can't think of anyone else with this ability besides you!"

"Boss, these methods are just like those of immortals in legends. You're not some kind of deity descended to earth, are you?"

“Zhang Hao, you have the ability, there’s no need to hide it. I believe that you showing your ability to us means you trust us. Don’t worry, we will never leak it out.”

Yi Sa is right. Everyone in the team is one of their own, which is why he stepped in to help when they were in danger.

However, his abilities were simply too extraordinary to explain, and he could not admit it no matter what.

"I know it is you!"

Zhang Qilin, who usually doesn't talk much, also joined in the fun.

Zhang Hao shook his head helplessly. He knew that at this point, he couldn't deny it anymore.

"Okay, I'll stop pretending. I did do those things you're talking about, but I hope you won't ask me how I did them."
