Chapter 180 – Fist of Faith

“Roar…” The Xenospecies’ cry was furious, but compared to before, it was much lower.

Every one of Su Lifeng’s attacks made it bleed once. That attack method, which directly caused its body to lose vitality and could even keep spreading like an infection, truly made it begin to shrink back!

If they kept fighting like this, it would die here.

Earlier, it had been dead set on killing Su Lifeng to vent its rage. But now that it had evolved, it instead began to retreat. It had thought that after seeing its improvement, Su Lifeng should have been utterly terrified. It had never expected him to become even more insane!

Fight to the death with this human Mutant? But it knew very clearly that there was still a special figure hiding in the shadows. Compared with that figure, this human was merely troublesome. That figure was the true major problem!

Unfortunately, there were no Wisdom Species left in Ningnan, and the gate to its homeland had not opened in this direction. Perhaps that figure was deliberately exploiting this gap…

Once this thought surfaced, it could no longer summon the will to risk its life. Its enormous body involuntarily shifted backward a little.

But during this movement, Su Lifeng suddenly raised his head.

Whoosh!

Su Lifeng rushed toward the Xenospecies once more.

This time, he no longer used his Bone Wings, and there was no time stop. He only stared calmly at the Xenospecies, then swung his left fist.

“Kill it… kill it!”

Under the force of this conviction, Su Lifeng did not even care that his left fist was still basically human flesh and blood. He did not care that all his finger bones had long since fractured, nor that his entire left arm was almost completely ruined… He simply swung this punch with unwavering resolve, pressing forward without retreat!

Crack…

Just as Su Lifeng’s left fist was about to smash into the Xenospecies’ enormous body, that small bit of Exoskeleton suddenly began spreading and covered his entire fist. Between those seams of bone, faint red light seemed to surface.

A feeling that his entire fist was about to burn instantly occupied Su Lifeng’s whole mind…

“Aaaah!!!!” A roar burst from Su Lifeng’s throat, and at the same moment he released that roar, his fist finally smashed into the Xenospecies’ bleeding body.

Bang!

Blood splattered everywhere!

Some belonged to the Xenospecies, and some belonged to Su Lifeng!

When those faint red lights touched the Xenospecies’ blood, the Xenospecies, which had originally planned to withstand this punch and continue retreating, suddenly fell into a brief state of stillness.

Su Lifeng felt as if all the strength in his body had concentrated into this fist. After that burning sensation made contact with the Xenospecies’ body, it seemed to explode with a roar. He could feel every inch of skin on his left hand aching, but inside that pain was a kind of exhilarating release!

This was how fighting should be!

A fight to the death between different species!

“Aaaah!!!!”

Su Lifeng was roaring, and at this moment, the Xenospecies suddenly opened its mouth as well. Its bloody maw thrust violently toward Su Lifeng in front of it. “Roar!”

Yet within that roar, what sprayed out was a large amount of blood. Its mouth remained wide open and stopped right in front of Su Lifeng.

“A collision of energy…”

Su Lifeng did not move at all. He could feel that the power of his entire body had just turned into a strand of lightning, released through the Exoskeleton and driven into the Xenospecies’ body. A bolt of lightning that seemed extremely thin could split apart a towering tree because of the terrifying energy contained within it.

And Su Lifeng’s punch just now had been exactly like that.

However, with all his physical strength drained away, Su Lifeng truly did not even have the strength to move a finger now.

The Black Threads inside the Xenospecies before him were continuously drilling into his left fist, and waves of heat kept spreading through his whole body from his palm…

“Is it over?”

After everything abruptly returned to calm, that group of survivors finally came back to themselves from their terror.

The middle-aged man stood up while trembling and looked toward the two figures that seemed frozen in place.

The group exchanged glances, then slowly walked toward the plaza. “Let’s go take a look…”

Su Lifeng had actually already seen these people coming. His experience with that group of young men and women earlier told him that these survivors would risk danger for even a tiny amount of supplies, especially when they held the advantage in numbers or when their own side possessed a certain degree of combat strength. The latter was actually the most frightening, because once these former ordinary people obtained a little ability, their confidence would swell without limit. They had no understanding that there were always people beyond people, unless they received a bloody lesson.

And by that time, they often had already harmed both others and themselves.

As for Su Lifeng himself… the opening of the Spatial Gate and the shadow of that enormous bone hand had always lingered in his mind. Not only had he never felt himself to be powerful, he had always been tense because of his current weakness.

Especially after learning that Jiangnan Safe City would be established nearby!

In all of Ningnan, perhaps only he understood most clearly how terrifying those High-class Xenospecies were!

But right now, even though he knew these people were sneaking closer, he had no way to do anything.

Everything contained within this enormous Xenospecies was like a frenzied current, washing over every cell in his body. Just standing here, he felt his whole body burning bit by bit. He simply did not feel that kind of pain. Every cell seemed to be cheering. Su Lifeng knew very clearly that he was evolving!

This state naturally could not be interrupted. If this group forced him to stop, Su Lifeng was not certain what he would do…

This group of people obviously did not know that Su Lifeng’s heart was already surging with murderous intent. They carefully approached the plaza, and only after confirming that the Xenospecies truly was dead did they slowly come closer.

Su Lifeng was extremely anxious. Although killing these people would not be difficult at all for him, if he were interrupted at such a critical moment…

“He seems to still be alive,” the middle-aged man suddenly said with some surprise.

“Impossible. Being able to die together with a monster like this is already rare enough. Look at him. How does he look alive at all?” another person denied.

“Maybe he’s dead… Look, there’s not one part of him that looks intact, and there are so many things hanging from his back… What exactly are those?”

Listening to these people’s whispers, Su Lifeng almost spat blood.

“Is this his backpack?” A relatively short boy picked up a professional waterproof backpack from the pool of blood.

The corner of Su Lifeng’s eye twitched. During the fight just now, his backpack had long since been lost somewhere. He had not expected this boy to have such sharp eyes.

“Check what’s inside? Someone this strong should have a lot of food, right?” A man licked his lips and spoke with great expectation.

The boy held the backpack, then nervously glanced again at Su Lifeng, who was still standing in front of the Xenospecies…
