The two of them caught their breath and adjusted to the intoxicating smell.

Xia Li spoke seriously, “This big guy’s abdomen is empty, with an organ resembling a human brain at the center. I tried to forcefully break it open, but its shell is extremely hard. The stench was unbearable, and after chopping it twice, I just couldn’t stand it and ran out…”

Ji Wanwan caught the keyword, “How big is the brain tissue?”

Xia Li recalled, “Not big, about twice the size of a normal human brain.”

“Was there any color?”

“Inside, it appeared dark red, but I saw blue energy fluctuations!”

Ji Wanwan had her answer.

The Crystal Core must be inside this brain tissue, and it is likely a Water Crystal Core.

No wonder Xu Siming’s Water Elemental Superpower was significantly weakened on Corpse Mountain. So, this was the crux.

The Five Elements reinforced and restrained one another. If they had someone with an Earth Superpower, fighting Corpse Mountain would probably have been easier. But none of the six of them had awakened to the Earth Superpower.

Although their strategy was viable, after fighting for so long, they were all exhausted, pale, and had only depleted less than a quarter of Corpse Mountain.

She still had Equivalence Healing to fall back on, but what about Xu Siming and Xingxing?

Their energy would also deplete…

Watching Corpse Mountain beginning to stand up, Ji Wanwan made a crazy decision in her mind, “System, how much supplies do I have left?”

System: “You have 2/3 of the supplies left in the System Space.”

Ji Wanwan: “Continue to replenish my physical strength and spiritual power!”

System: “Okay.”

Having received the System’s response, Ji Wanwan looked at Xia Li again, “Ah Li, around which area is the brain tissue approximately located?”

Xia Li pondered briefly, “Do you remember where I rushed out from?”

Ji Wanwan nodded slightly, “I roughly remember.”

Xia Li: “Okay, about half a meter up from that spot is where the brain tissue is.”

With a rough position in mind, Ji Wanwan teleported to a higher position and raised her hand toward Corpse Mountain.

Countless tiny space cubes rapidly appeared on Corpse Mountain’s body, instantly slicing the huge creature into numerous small cubes, all except for the part Xia Li mentioned.

“Puff puff puff…”

The sound of exploding flesh and blood followed continuously as the cubes burst one by one.

Ji Wanwan called this move—

Space Tetris.

This move was very powerful. The airtight space cubes left the enemy with no escape, but similarly, creating so many independent spaces in an instant was almost suicide in terms of the energy drain it caused Ji Wanwan.

Blood oozed from the corners of her mouth, her eyes filled with bloodshot veins, and her face turned pale as paper due to the instant depletion of energy.

Seeing Corpse Mountain reduced to a manageable size of flesh, Ji Wanwan forced a weak, pale smile.

This round, worth it!

The lump of flesh showed clear signs of agitation. Ji Wanwan gritted her teeth and quickly formed a Space Barrier around the flesh.

“Sister!”

Seeing his sister beginning to bleed from every orifice, Ji Xing’s eyes reddened in immense distress.

Not strong enough! Despite having awakened superpowers, they still weren’t strong enough!

No more fooling around in future trainings!

Ji Wanwan controlled the lump of flesh while frantically using Equivalence Healing to recover her own body.

Once she was sufficiently recovered, she used her signature move—

Space Compression.

As the Space Barrier shrank, the flesh ball nearly filled the entire space.

A red glow flickered, and a pair of bewitching eyes caused Ji Wanwan to squint.

She widened her eyes as she watched the human head contour gradually become clear within the Space Barrier, secretly shocked.

This must be the true form of Corpse Mountain, the original appearance of the level 4 zombie.

The force of Space Compression made the level 4 zombie feel threatened, stripping away its layers of corpse disguise and starting to fight back.

It let out a sharp, long howl, and the Space Barrier immediately cracked.

Ji Wanwan felt a sweetness in her throat and almost lost control of the Space Barrier.

Such tremendous strength…

A brief rest allowed Xu Siming to regain some energy, and he immediately steped up to assist, applying layers of Ice Seal on the level 4 zombie through the Space Barrier.

However, the effect of Ice Seal on the water-element level 4 zombie was not very noticeable.

The two of them struggled to fight, and Xia Li, who was purely physically offensive, paced back and forth in frustration, unable to lend any help.

Ji Xing also wanted to help but could not think of a way to utilize his Gold Element Energy.

As for Zhou Kai and Qi Hao, they could only watch helplessly, dealing with ordinary zombies summoned by the level 4 zombie.

After about a minute of stalemate, Xu Siming was clearly exhausted, and Ji Wanwan had been consuming a lot of her own energy to control the space, looking pale and unwell.

But the level 4 zombie inside the Space Barrier clearly still had spare energy.

Ji Wanwan had already figured out its plan.

It was wearing her and Xu Siming down; once she was exhausted and lost control of the space, it would immediately counterattack.

From its current strength, it might not be able to obliterate her and her teammates completely, but dragging one or two of them down was absolutely no problem.

They needed to adjust their tactics immediately!

Ji Wanwan’s mind started to race.

“Xingxing! Do you still remember how Cheng Ya died?”

Ji Xing was slightly stunned, then quickly caught on to his sister’s intent.

“I’ll count to three, then remove the Space Barrier!”

Ji Xing quickly responded, “Okay!”

“Three…”

As her voice fell, the Space Barrier disappeared, and Ji Xing controlled all the metal he could in the vicinity, wrapping the level 4 zombie up in it instantly.

“Crawl for grandpa!!!”

Feeling the intense struggle from the level 4 zombie, Ji Xing madly compressed the metal.

“Roar!!!”

“Bang bang bang…”

With an angry roar, all the metal around the level 4 zombie was blasted away, and Ji Xing suffered backlash, collapsing to the ground with blood streaming from his nose and mouth.

The level 4 zombie that had freed itself glared with bloodshot eyes, staring intently at Ji Wanwan and her group.

The hunting moment had arrived!

“Swoosh–”

It raised its right hand and suddenly stretched it out towards the unconscious Ji Xing.

This movement was exactly like that of the Monkey Corpse!

Ji Wanwan shouted in alarm, “Xingxing!!!”

“Whirl whirl whirl whirl whirl whirl…”

A strange sound of waves came through, and just as Ji Wanwan was about to Instant Teleport, she felt a severe pain in her head, the booming noise ringing in her ears, rendering her unable to do or think of anything.

The level 4 zombie lunging at Ji Xing was the same.

It retracted its elongated arm in an instant, covering its ears in pain and even curling up its body.

The sound lasted about three seconds.

The three seconds of the Sea God’s Voice drained Xu Siming of his last bit of energy; his vision darkened, he staggered, clenched his teeth to squeeze out his last bit of strength to form an Ice Wall in front of Ji Xing, then fell heavily to the ground.

The moment her consciousness recovered, Ji Wanwan Instant Teleported in front of Ji Xing.

The level 4 zombie, slightly slower in recovery by half a second, stretched out its hand toward the two of them immediately afterward.

“Crack!”

To reach Ji Xing, the zombie’s hand had to go through the Ice Wall.

But this Ice Wall was merely a momentary obstruction.

The moment it was touched, it shattered into pieces…
