Nine Yang Life and Death Transformation

Suddenly, a piercing scream tore through the air—"Ah!" It turned out that one of the team members, in a moment of carelessness, had been struck by the gushing poisonous water. Instantly, his skin began to corrode and burn, the excruciating pain causing him to let out agonizing howls. Of the dozen or so people originally led by Mu Chuntang, only seven remained after their perilous escape to the foot of the volcano.

Those weaker Qi Refining stage disciples suffered a complete annihilation. Meanwhile, the Blazing Sun Sect also suffered heavy losses; their original force of over fifty had dwindled to more than half, with only about twenty survivors clinging to life. At this moment, the survivors of both factions faced each other, their eyes filled with despair and exhaustion.

Just then, Huoxing caught sight of Wu Feilong, his eyes blazing with fury as if he had encountered an irreconcilable enemy. He roared through gritted teeth, "Sun Kang, I never expected to run into you here! Today, let's settle our old and new scores once and for all!" Wu Feilong was equally unyielding, retorting, "Just what I wanted! You bunch of hypocritical beasts from the Lieyang Sect, today is your doom!" Instantly, the atmosphere became tense, with swords drawn and a life-or-death duel about to erupt.

Just as the two factions were about to clash, a gigantic, bloodthirsty fire mosquito king, exuding a stench of blood, suddenly streaked across the battlefield like a red lightning bolt. Its ferocious and terrifying face sent chills down one's spine, and thick saliva dripped from its mouth, as if the people before it were all delicious delicacies it had long coveted.

The mosquito king opened its gaping maw, and a torrent of dark green venom sprayed towards the crowd like a rain of arrows. The crowd was terrified and scrambled backward to avoid it. However, despite their swift reactions, several disciples of the Blazing Sun Sect were unable to dodge in time and were fatally poisoned by the venom.

In an instant, the terrifying venom touched their hands and feet, making a hissing sound. Then, their hands and feet began to melt at a visible speed, turning into a pool of blood in the blink of an eye.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the other bloodthirsty fire mosquitoes swarmed forward like hungry wolves, sucking the blood of the disciples clean. The scene was so bloody and cruel that it was unbearable to watch.

Just then, a colossal wave suddenly surged across the calm swamp surface, and a gigantic tentacle, tens of meters long, burst forth from the water. Covered in countless black suckers, this tentacle swept through the air like a vast, all-encompassing net, instantly trapping dozens of bloodthirsty fire mosquitoes. The captured mosquitoes struggled desperately, but could not break free of this terrifying restraint, forced to watch helplessly as they became their prey.

Immediately afterwards, several more equally enormous tentacles flew out of the swamp, intertwining and dancing in mid-air to form a deadly web. In the blink of an eye, most of the originally numerous bloodthirsty fire mosquitoes had been killed or wounded, and the rest fled in panic.

Seeing the situation rapidly deteriorate, the bloodthirsty fire mosquito king knew it was no match for the enemy and decisively led its remaining fire mosquito army to flee in panic towards the distant forest.

At this moment, Mars, who was standing to the side, changed his expression drastically and shouted, "Everyone, retreat quickly! This is an extremely ferocious octopus demon fish!" Hearing his shout, everyone snapped out of their daze and hurriedly turned around and retreated.

Wu Feilong was filled with doubt and shock. He couldn't understand why such a huge giant octopus could appear in this scorching volcanic swamp, and how it could survive and reproduce in such poisonous waters. What surprised him even more was that this octopus seemed unsatisfied with the bloodthirsty fire mosquitoes it had just preyed on. Its several thick, powerful tentacles continued to extend, waving menacingly at the group.

Wu Feilong's eyes darted around, and a brilliant idea flashed through his mind. He took a deep breath, rapidly circulating his spiritual energy, and then unleashed the amazing movement technique, Lightning Step. In the blink of an eye, he teleported to the location of the Blazing Fire Sect disciples like lightning.

Wu Feilong swiftly pulled dozens of explosive charges from his pocket and hurled them at the giant octopus-like demonic fish without hesitation. Several deafening booms echoed, as if the entire earth trembled. Accompanying the terrifying explosions, poisonous water was blasted into the sky, reaching tens of meters high, forming a spectacular yet horrifying column of water.

Suffering from such a powerful attack, the octopus-like demon fish was in great pain, and its outstretched tentacles quickly retracted. Then, it leaped out of the swamp, its eyes, as large as a football, filled with rage and killing intent, staring intently at the disciples of the Blazing Sun Sect.

Faced with the menacing octopus, the disciples of the Blazing Sun Sect showed no sign of backing down. Each of them possessed formidable physical strength, and they unleashed a barrage of punches at the octopus's tentacles. However, to their surprise, the octopus's body was limp and boneless. When their fists struck it, it felt as if they were hitting a pile of cotton, utterly unable to inflict any effective damage.

At this moment, Mars, who was standing to the side, angrily cursed, "Fine! It's you again, you damned brat! It's always you who causes trouble!"

While the disciples of the Blazing Sun Sect were engaged in fierce combat with the Octopus Demon Fish, the members of the Wooden Spring Hall had already quietly retreated, avoiding this terrible battle from a distance.

This octopus-like demonic fish was extremely powerful, comparable to a Golden Core cultivator. Its tentacles were incredibly agile, like dancing whips. With a single, swift motion, it ensnared several disciples of the Blazing Sun Sect. These disciples struggled desperately, trying to break free, but to no avail. At the same time, the suckers on the octopus-like demonic fish's tentacles began frantically absorbing their true essence. Before long, the Blazing Sun Sect disciples were drained of their true essence, turning into shriveled, dried-up corpses, a gruesome sight.

Wu Feilong stood silently at a distance, coldly observing everything that was happening before him. Just then, a panicked disciple desperately fled towards him. Wu Feilong, expressionless, kicked out, and the disciple, like a kite with a broken string, flew straight back, instantly falling into the gaping maw of the octopus demon fish, becoming its meal. In the blink of an eye, the once bustling Lieyang Sect was reduced to only Elders Huoxing and Jin Guanglie struggling to hold on.

At this moment, Mars was filled with endless regret, secretly lamenting, "Oh dear! How could I be so foolish as to provoke such a group of terrifying monsters? Now I've really tried to steal a chicken but lost the rice instead!" The current situation was extremely unfavorable for them. In front of them were the ferocious octopus demon fish, and behind them were many disciples of Mu Chuntang closing in step by step.

Mars gritted his teeth, turned to Jin Guanglie beside him and said, "Brother Jin, things have come to this, we can only fight! If we charge in together, there might still be a glimmer of hope!" Jin Guanglie nodded in response, and the two exchanged a knowing glance. Then, they simultaneously channeled their inner strength and sped towards Wu Feilong like lightning.
