The "black gas" passed through someone's body, instantly stripping them of all flesh and blood, leaving only a pile of bones.
Fang Xian frowned, immediately donning the "Dragon God Set," wielding the "Dragon Staff" and "Black Tortoise Shield," and spreading his "White Tiger Wings" on his back, becoming alert.
He discovered that he couldn't query details about the "black gas," and his "Eye of Insight" also couldn't obtain any information about it, meaning the "black gas" wasn't a dungeon monster.
A wisp of "black gas" spotted Fang Xian and rapidly flew towards him.
Fang Xian's eyes narrowed, and he unleashed the "Contract Master's" innate skill—"Soul Attack."
"Bang!"
The "black gas" exploded, transforming into several small black dots, all flying towards Fang Xian.
Fang Xian felt nothing amiss with the dots; instead, they seemed like experience points, all flying into his body.
[Strange Qi +1]
There's an increase notification?
What exactly is "Strange Qi"?
He clicked on "Strange Qi" to view the information.
[Strange Qi: An energy gas unique to the Strange race, used to form a "Strange Physique." Note: Only a sufficiently evil physique can obtain "Strange Qi."]
Fang Xian finally understood why there was no record of "Strange Qi" in the books; it turned out that only a sufficiently evil physique could obtain it.
The number of people in the world with so-called "evil physiques" is extremely small, perhaps they have never even existed.
Only Fang Xian's "Six-Winged Fallen Angel Physique" is a true "evil physique."
The explosion just now attracted the attention of the "black gas," which swarmed towards Fang Xian.
Fang Xian looked around and continuously unleashed "soul attacks."
"Bang bang bang!"
The continuous explosions echoed, and countless streams of "Strange Qi" surged into his body.
The "black physique" seemed to lack intelligence, only capable of being drawn to a flame like moths.
This saved Fang Xian a lot of time; as long as the "black gas" dared to approach, he would accept it without hesitation.
The huge commotion attracted the Tang Sect disciples who had taken cover. They stared wide-eyed as Fang Xian slaughtered everything in his path, utterly astonished.
They knew that the "black gas" had no physical form; no matter how hard they fought, they could hardly harm it.
But how could Fang Xian kill the "black gas" with just a glance?
What was going on?
In truth, they didn't know that the "black gas" was not only immune to physical attacks, but its magical resistance was also extremely high. Ordinary mental attacks had no effect on it.
Only someone as overpowered as Fang Xian could kill the "black gas" as easily as cutting vegetables.
But regardless, Fang Xian's appearance brought them hope.
The Tang Sect members looked at Fang Xian in the sky with gratitude. It was him last time, and it was him again this time.
He truly was the Tang Sect's savior.
...
Over an hour later, the "black gas" had completely disappeared from the sky.
At this time, Fang Xian's "evil energy" level had reached 10086.
He looked around to confirm it was safe before using his "Exclusive Skill - All-Encompassing Ocean" to summon Mu Wanyao.
Mu Wanyao frowned deeply upon seeing the Tang Sect's pitiful state.
"Honey, are you alright?"
"I'm fine."
Fang Xian had found the "black gas" too eerie; it could kill anyone it passed through, making it extremely dangerous.
So, while killing monsters, he told them in a WeChat group not to use the "teleport command" to come over on their own, but to wait for his notification.
Only after Fang Xian had eliminated all the "black gas" and confirmed it was safe did he summon Mu Wanyao.
"Wanyao, this is the 'teleport command' for this area. Go back and give it to Auntie, then I'll summon all of you over."
"Okay."
Mu Wanyao knew the situation was serious and didn't dare delay, immediately teleporting back.
A moment later, Mu Yunzhi appeared beside Fang Xian with a "whoosh."
Mu Yunzhi stared blankly at the Tang Clan members before her, her body trembling slightly, her hands clenched into fists.
Tears streamed down her pale cheeks.
Fang Xian stood behind Mu Yunzhi, gently comforting her.
"Auntie, please accept my condolences."
Mu Yunzhi tried to control her emotions; her voice was hoarse.
"Fang Xian, have you seen...Third Brother?"
Fang Xian shook his head.
"No."
Mu Yunzhi was silent for a moment, then looked at Fang Xian with pleading eyes.
"Please, please save Third Brother. He...he must have had no choice but to do this..."
Fang Xian's eyes narrowed slightly. It seemed this incident was related to Tang San, and Tang San might even be the culprit.
"Okay, I will do my best."
With that, Fang Xian used his "Exclusive Skill - All Rivers Run into the Sea" to summon all the women.
The women were heartbroken to see the horrific state of the Tang Clan.
"You help treat the wounded. Auntie, please take me to find clues."
After giving his instructions, Fang Xian prepared to search for clues with Mu Yunzhi.
Tang Xiaowu hurriedly grabbed Fang Xian, pleading,
"Husband, I want to go too."
Fang Xian gently patted Tang Xiaowu's slender hand, softly saying,
"Leave it to us. This place needs your protection more."
If Tang San was truly the instigator, he didn't want Tang Xiaowu to face these consequences.
Mu Yunzhi shared the same thought, and she also gently persuaded him.
"Xiaowu, protect everyone."
Tang Xiaowu hesitated for a moment, then silently nodded.
"Husband, Mom, please be careful."
Fang Xian and Mu Yunzhi nodded, then flew towards the back mountain.
Mu Yunzhi wasn't sure if Tang San was still on the back mountain, so she went to check first.
The two arrived at the back mountain but found no trace of him.
Fang Xian saw two skeletons in the distance and suddenly thought of a question.
The "black gas" primarily devours human flesh and blood; could Tang San also be heading towards crowded places?
He had a bad feeling. Tang San might very well go down the mountain to Qingchuan City.
If that were the case, things would be extremely dangerous.
Fang Xian couldn't worry about anything else and pulled Mu Yunzhi into his arms.
"Auntie, I'm sorry, we have to hurry."
Mu Yunzhi felt Fang Xian's long-awaited embrace and was slightly taken aback.
She knew the urgency of the situation and nodded silently.
"Okay."
Fang Xian held Mu Yunzhi tightly, his white tiger wings flapped, and he instantly disappeared into the horizon.
Mu Yunzhi had never experienced such terrifying speed before, and she clung to Fang Xian tightly in fear.
Although Mu Yunzhi in his arms was incredibly soft, now was not the time to think about such things. If he arrived too late, many lives would be lost.
He flew at full speed, streaking across the sky like a meteor.
"Whoosh!"
Fang Xian saw the "black gas" in the sky above Qingchuan City in the distance and his heart skipped a beat. He was too late.
The people of Qingchuan City fled in panic, the entire city in chaos.
Many Awakened Ones fought back fiercely, smoke and fire filling the air.
Fang Xian stopped and immediately joined the battle.
His eyes continuously unleashed powerful spiritual energy, relentlessly bombarding the "black gas."
Mu Yunzhi watched in amazement as Fang Xian effortlessly annihilated the "black gas," momentarily forgetting to release his embrace.
At this moment, in her eyes, Fang Xian was truly—a savior.
Fang Xian's actions not only attracted the attention of the people but also drew the attention of the "black gas."
A swarm of "black gas" swept through the city, blocking out all sunlight.
Fang Xian smiled coldly, his fighting spirit soaring.
"Good timing."
"You'll all become my experience points."
