Chapter 392 - 254: Cringey Dance Send-off (Part 2)

This was utterly reckless Cultivation, the kind that led straight to Qi deviation and immediate, violent death on the spot.

Only such an insane method could affect Gongsun Xiang, who had become absurdly powerful.

Zou Feng had actually already realized it. Gongsun Xiang’s Undying Body was the result of the Glazed Immortal Palace continuously bestowing some kind of mysterious power upon him.

As for the source of this mysterious power...

The Martial Artists back in the Fate Hall, the ones who had failed to endure the Illusion Realm and lost themselves within it, had most likely become the suppliers.

These nutrients were converted by the Glazed Immortal Palace and channeled into Gongsun Xiang, forging the Undying Body of this King of Human Gu.

At the same time, Gongsun Xiang finally realized something was wrong.

He was supposed to be invincible.

A moment ago, he was just toying with these First Grade Experts, planning to let them properly experience what truly absolute, invincible power felt like.

Su Qingyu, in particular, was to be saved for last. He would humiliate her to the fullest before instantly beginning her Refinement.

’But what the hell is happening now!?’

’Why is my back suddenly aching for no reason?’

One moment, he felt an overwhelming urge to urinate and defecate; the next, he found himself looking at Wang Guquan and thinking he was unbelievably handsome, almost good enough to eat.

The most unacceptable part was the overwhelmingly intense urge welling up in his heart to... furiously suck on Su Qingyu’s feet.

These sudden discomforts made it impossible for Gongsun Xiang to maintain his previous dominance. He was now being hit by his opponents from time to time, gradually losing the upper hand.

’No... that’s not right. It’s not that these worthless fighters suddenly got stronger, it’s that I... I’ve grown weak!?’

At this thought, Gongsun Xiang’s beast-like eyes snapped toward Zou Feng, who was still doing his "cringey dance."

’All these strange feelings in my body only started appearing after this brat began dancing...’

’It’d be a miracle if they weren’t connected!’

"You... you’re courting death!!"

Regardless of whether his weakness was caused by Zou Feng’s dancing or not, Gongsun Xiang could no longer tolerate the man’s infuriatingly annoying moves.

Seeing Gongsun Xiang willing to risk injury just to break free and deal with Zou Feng first, Su Qingyu immediately realized the gravity of the situation.

She had been the first to realize that Zou Feng’s cringey dance was definitely a type of Spiritual Attack aimed at Gongsun Xiang.

’We absolutely cannot let Gongsun Xiang stop Zou Feng’s cringey dance. Otherwise, all our previous efforts might be for nothing.’

"Stop him! Don’t let that fiend get near Zou Feng!" Su Qingyu cried out, then accelerated and charged forward first.

The other First Grade Experts now naturally understood Zou Feng’s role as well. Even without Su Qingyu’s reminder, they would have done everything in their power to stop Gongsun Xiang from getting close to him.

Watching Su Qingyu and the other experts risk their lives to frantically protect Zou Feng, the Martial Artists who hadn’t understood the situation finally grasped the key to the battle.

’So Zou Feng really *is* performing a "Battle Dance" that can unleash a Spiritual Attack.’

’So the one dancing like a madman on the side is actually the most important person in this fight, huh...’

"Look! Zou Feng... he’s smiling! He’s smiling!"

"So that’s how it is! He truly is a Poison Cultivator the likes of which hasn’t been seen in a hundred years. Truly extraordinary. How ridiculous of me to think he was just chickening out..."

At this moment, Zou Feng indeed couldn’t help but reveal a smile.

After all, Gongsun Xiang was getting desperate, intending to eliminate him first. That could only mean one thing: the guy was about to break.

’Too bad for him. Realizing you should take out the support character first in a team fight... it’s too late now!’

Gongsun Xiang was now covered in wounds, his earlier composure completely gone.

His hatred for Zou Feng now surpassed even his hatred for Su Qingyu.

And even though Zou Feng was just a short distance away, the frenzied obstruction of the First Grade Experts made that short distance seem impossibly far.

Just as his hatred and frustration reached their peak, he happened to see that smug smile on Zou Feng’s lips...

"AHHHH..."

"JUST DIE!!"

Gongsun Xiang snapped. Channeling his remaining power, he unleashed an unprecedented shockwave with himself at the center.

Caught off guard, the First Grade Experts, including Su Qingyu, all grunted in pain and were sent flying uncontrollably.

In truth, after forcing that Bursting Qi, Gongsun Xiang was already a spent arrow.

Although the Glazed Immortal Palace was still continuously granting him power, the problem was that he had been consuming it too quickly. The rate of reinforcement was far slower than the rate of consumption.

But Gongsun Xiang couldn’t care about that anymore. Even if he had to flee temporarily after being severely injured, he had to take down Zou Feng first.

However, just as he was about to pounce on Zou Feng, Zou Feng showed none of the panic he should have. The smile on his face didn’t change at all.

It was as if he had long expected Gongsun Xiang to finally break through and reach him.

BOOM—

The next moment, the Immortal statue Zou Feng had been standing on shattered violently.

True Man State activated instantly, followed by Domain Expansion.

’The cringey dance was one thing, but I didn’t neglect my preparations for the Poison Domain.’

Within the Poison Burial Illusory Prison, Zou Feng, with movements that seemed slow but were actually fast, struck out at Gongsun Xiang with the Five Poison Heart-Burning Palm.

This palm strike, incorporating the greatly improved Great Universal Hand and powered by True Qi driven by the Dragon and Tiger Kan and Li Skill, was in fact an advanced version.

In his heavily injured state, how could Gongsun Xiang have expected this? He thought he was just coming to kill a support character.

But upon arriving, he discovered this support was actually a late-game DPS powerhouse!

The palm strike hadn’t even landed, but its influence had already dazed him, making him unable to dodge. He could only hastily circulate his True Qi to block it head-on.

A moment later, Zou Feng’s fan-sized hand slapped heavily across Gongsun Xiang’s face.

The whole scene looked as if Gongsun Xiang had actively lunged forward to receive a huge slap from Zou Feng.

After Gongsun Xiang was hit, time itself seemed to freeze for a moment.

Then, Zou Feng, his work done, moved past Gongsun Xiang without the slightest hesitation.

Afterward, both of them slowly landed on the ground.

Gongsun Xiang had instinctively adjusted his posture in mid-air and also landed steadily.

But then he stood motionless. A kaleidoscope of emotions—joy, anger, sorrow, happiness—flashed across his face in a truly spectacular, award-winning performance.

It was obvious that the advanced Five Poison Heart-Burning Palm had not only severely injured Gongsun Xiang but had also plunged him into a nightmarish Illusion Realm.

Three breaths later, Gongsun Xiang let out a high-pitched, mournful cry, then covered his face and collapsed to the ground, wailing incessantly.

"We... we won!?"

"Don’t stop! Annihilate this fiend!" Su Qingyu, having recovered from the earlier shockwave, ignored the fact that it would worsen her injuries and immediately rushed forward to land the finishing blow.

The other First Grade Experts naturally understood the importance of finishing the job. They all followed, ready to kick the man while he was down.

Gongsun Xiang was instantly beaten beyond recognition, his wails growing weaker and weaker.

He realized he wasn’t going to make it. Using his last bit of strength, he raised a hand and roared, "Luminous Immortal Venerable... save me... save me..."

Unfortunately, he received no response.

The next moment, Su Qingyu stomped down hard, crushing his head and giving him the "reward" he had wanted for her earlier.

Seeing that Gongsun Xiang’s head was gone, they figured there was no way he could spring back to life now, right?

Everyone let out a long sigh of relief. The wave of exhaustion that followed either made them collapse to the ground or left them staggering, unable to stand steady.

But now that they had dealt with Gongsun Xiang, the strongest Immortal Slave chosen by the Glazed Immortal Palace, did this mean the greatest crisis was over?

But how were they going to get out?

Zou Feng was also taking a moment to recover his breath. Although he had only thrown one palm strike, the frenetic dancing combined with that all-out attack had consumed a huge amount of his energy.

Thankfully, the results of the battle were fruitful.

Now, they should be able to continue searching for a way out of the Glazed Immortal Palace.

Just as he was pondering where to explore next, he saw Su Qingyu walk over, still panting.

"That was some nice dancing. If you have a chance, could you teach me?"

Su Qingyu’s tone when speaking to Zou Feng was no longer that of a superior addressing a subordinate; she was now treating him as her equal.

"If the Palace Master wishes to learn, of course!"

’It’s just the Shaking Flower Hand, after all. No big deal to teach her.’

But he had barely finished speaking when the headless body of Gongsun Xiang began to tremble again. An even more sinister and bizarre aura rose from it!
