Chapter 378: Chapter 262: The Monster’s Desperate Resistance

Beside him, a young warrior swallowed hard and then spoke up uncertainly,

"I mean, if it’s him, jumping from this height shouldn’t be a problem, right? After all, so many vines have been cut, it’s pretty clear he’s no ordinary person..."

Mr. Wen was taken aback by these words, before coming to his senses.

Yes, that unmistakably transcendent strength of the other party—how could such a height pose any difficulty for him?

Besides, if there were any risk in jumping down, he wouldn’t have taken the leap on his own initiative, would he?

Outside the building, Zhang Xiaoman landed with a thunderous crash. Of course, he wasn’t harmed at all—not from the sixth floor, and certainly not from the sixtieth floor.

The vines seemed not to have expected his sudden action.

By the time they reacted and began to pursue, Zhang Xiaoman had already run toward the underground parking, chasing the source of the strong Dark Energy fluctuations.

Here, he faced a series of plant obstructions, yet he simply ignored them all.

If anything blocked his path, Zhang Xiaoman would immediately smash it to pieces with his sword.

And if anything tried to entangle him from other directions, they were all disregarded.

After all, with the Immunity effect of Life Tai Chi active, these things couldn’t possibly stop him.

Quickly, Zhang Xiaoman arrived near the suspected plant core.

If Li Ziran had been there, he would have certainly recognized the place as where he had once encountered Guan Liang.

"Finally found you. Now, let’s see what you really are..."

Zhang Xiaoman muttered to himself, and then kicked a battered wooden door, sending it flying off its hinges.

Immediately, the terrifying scene inside was laid bare before his eyes.

The small room was densely packed with plant roots and stems.

In the middle of these roots, there was a small pool, and within this pool lay a calf-sized, blood-red heart.

The reason it was so unnerving, was because the pool wasn’t filled with ordinary water, but with blood—a pool full of blood!

"Holy shit!"

Zhang Xiaoman couldn’t help but curse aloud when he saw this scene, something he had never anticipated.

He had imagined many possible hiding places for the monster, and what they might look like.

Maybe a nest guarded by layers of blood vessels and roots.

Or it could’ve been a burrowing demon, hidden underground, using every means to stay concealed.

But the actual result had far surpassed his expectations—the monster’s heart, immersed in a pool, and that pool made entirely of blood.

"Motherfucker, how many sins have you committed!"

Rage surged up within him.

The blood in these pools indicated that during its time in hiding, the creature had likely taken many lives.

That thought in mind, Zhang Xiaoman’s gaze swept the surroundings, and he suddenly noticed, in a corner, the bodies of over a hundred cats and dogs piled up, a sight so shocking even he felt a chill.

"No wonder there have been so many reports of missing pets lately—the source of it all is here..."

That moment, he recalled the related news he had seen on the internet in the past two days, and finally understood how the events unfolded.

Right now, the giant heart was clearly aware it had been exposed.

It felt an unprecedented danger, and the surrounding vines and plants attacked Zhang Xiaoman as if maddened.

"Heh, a desperate struggle,"

Zhang Xiaoman chuckled coldly. He wasn’t afraid of the monsters’ attacks in the slightest. After casually slashing through several approaching vines, dark energy gathered at his fingertips, swiftly arranging the Burst Spirit Skill.

"If you were hiding underground, I might have a bit of trouble... But since you’re exposed, you’re just asking for death."

With a thought, he pointed with his right index finger, and the purple light of the Burst Spirit Skill instantly brightened, illuminating the dim underground space and piercing through the large blood-red heart.

"Woo~~!!!"

A sound as loud as a ship’s horn erupted when the plant’s heart wildly struggled following the attack.

This struggle manifested in an even more frenzied assault from the surrounding plants.

However, to the invincible Zhang Xiaoman, these attacks were completely useless.

He flipped his fingers, readying another Burst Spirit Skill, preparing to hit the creature again.

He believed that if this strike hit, it would not be far from death.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to use his sword; it’s just that there were too many vines and roots here.

While he might be immune to control, the plants were so numerous that they had completely altered the terrain. If he wanted to make his way over, it would undoubtedly take a lot of effort.

Now, only ten seconds remained of his invincibility. Although the Burst Spirit Skill required 40 points of Dark Energy, he had to finish off this creature quickly.

However, just as he was about to launch his attack, a violent tremor suddenly came from the ground beneath him.

Zhang Xiaoman’s body shook, and the Burst Spirit Skill in his hand also veered off.

And then, the earth split open, and bricks and stones shattered.

The surrounding vines began to wildly congregate around the heart, enveloping it layer by layer.

"Boom rumble!"

A series of loud noises came, and the entire underground parking lot started to collapse.

Seeing the situation was bad, Zhang Xiaoman quickly ran towards the exit, using the last few seconds of his invincibility. Fortunately, there was a staircase nearby, and he immediately ran up to the surface.

During his escape, many rocks inevitably fell, but they all seemed to intentionally avoid the spot where Zhang Xiaoman was; not a single one hit him.

"Holy shit, what the hell did it do!"

Zhang Xiaoman felt the whole world shaking around him, and the nearby buildings of the Three Institutes also began to sway.

Fortunately, the part of the building with the plant’s heart was not directly beneath them but in front of a vacant land, sparing the building from collapsing for the moment.

"Star Rank, come down and pick me up!"

Zhang Xiaoman shouted into his wristwatch. His Golden Body had disappeared, and having been released from his invincible status, he had to be cautious of the dangers around him.

Fortunately, it seemed like the plant was currently busy with some big move and didn’t take the chance to attack Zhang Xiaoman.

Instead, the plants on the surrounding walls began to retract, all heading towards that underground position.

"What on earth is this thing trying to do!"

Rumbling filled Zhang Xiaoman’s ears, and the scene before him was utterly baffling. He couldn’t understand what the monster was up to with such a display.

As soon as he finished speaking, a black shadow suddenly appeared beside him—it was the Anti-gravity Car falling from the sky.

"Woof woof woof!"

("Run! Run! Run!")

The hatch opened, and the figure of Jin Bao the dog appeared at the door, loudly barking at Zhang Xiaoman outside.
