As a member of the study group, after practicing with Yin Meng for so long, Tan Wenbin also gained some insights into this secret technique.

Yin Meng immediately controlled her gu worm, directing it to attack the dog.

Under the instigation of the gu worm, a crowd of corpse spirits swarmed towards the dog.

"Huff..."

Yin Meng lowered her arms, gasping for air heavily.

In the distance, White Crane True Monarch, who was executing a counterattack according to protocol, suddenly felt a chill down his spine, overwhelmed by a strong sense of danger.

He turned his head to look back, and his pupils instantly widened!

For a moment, White Crane True Monarch hesitated. Should he retreat to avoid it, or did the commander's intention mean he should continue entangling with the dog to go down together?

If Brother Xiao Yuan were commanding, the instructions would be clear and timely, naturally avoiding such doubt. But now it's Three-eyed in charge, who might indeed pull some petty vengeful tricks.

Zhao Yi: "Retreat!"

The order was a bit late, but thankfully the leading gu worm intentionally deviated, granting White Crane True Monarch the opportunity to withdraw from the battlefield with composure.

Faced with the insects rushing at him, the dog swung its fist without a word, smashing a large area of them.

However, the blood spilled from the shattered corpse spirits was entirely absorbed by the nearby surviving ones, causing them to grow larger and their wings to flap more fiercely.

Moreover, having suffered an attack and lost many of their kind, the remaining corpse spirits channeled their hatred towards the dog.

Yin Meng's gu worm, having fulfilled its mission, immediately turned around and slipped through the intense stalemate back to Yin Meng's side.

The dog continued swinging its fists, slaughtering those corpse spirits, yet the sense of crisis kept escalating rather than diminishing.

Finally, the last seven or eight corpse spirits, about the size of cats and dogs, reached the dog.

The leading three emitted a tremorous sound and then self-destructed.

The previously smashed corpse spirits only oozed blood, but these knowingly self-destructing larger ones contained entirely boiling toxic liquid, infused with anger and curses.

It was too late to dodge, and blocking was impossible. The dog's body was doused repeatedly with this toxic liquid, unable to perform self-examination, as the remaining large corpse spirits clung to its humanoid form.

As soon as they made contact, the countless tendrils underneath the corpse spirits' bellies pierced the dog's body, injecting egg after egg inside.

The dog's body was extensively burned and melted, and it threw back its head, howling in despair.

The Liang Sisters were startled by the scene, not by the dog's miserable state, but by the corpse spirits' bone-gripping attack method.

Either you escape immediately and successfully, or you annihilate them all at once. Any oversight allows them to grow stronger by rapidly consuming their fallen kin.

This strategy surpassed the typical level of confrontation, it was genuinely a secret technique.

Zhao Yi blinked: "The technique from the Li family is impressive, I kind of want to learn it myself."

Tan Wenbin: "It's useless for outsiders to learn."

Zhao Yi: "That Lewd Temple, I can also go and worship, it's just a matter of building relationships and asking for a promise." 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Tan Wenbin: "Okay, I'll talk to Brother Yuan when he wakes up, and then take you to pay respects."

Zhao Yi looked at Tan Wenbin and said, "You agreed quite cheerfully, seems fishy."

Tan Wenbin laughed: "Every powerful secret technique has problems, there's no such thing as a free lunch. Besides, it's already been used, the ritual done, that yellow paper has long turned to ashes, why worry about those things now?"

Zhao Yi nodded: "That's true."

Tan Wenbin didn't rush to tell Zhao Yi whom that offering was made to, as everyone still relied on Zhao Yi to command and face the current and remaining dangerous situations. They couldn't let Mr. Zhao lose his Taoist heart at this moment.

The dog's wails continued, its already decaying body accelerating in that process, with bulges forming all over its body from something alive wriggling inside.

It was driven mad, frantically clawing at its body, yet the eggs and larvae seemed infinite, using its body as a breeding ground.

Zhao Yi raised his hand, shouting: "Run Sheng, Liang Li, Liang Yan, Lin Shuyou, advance with me!"

All those capable of close combat were mobilized by Zhao Yi, charging towards the dog, intending to take this opportunity to completely eradicate it.

Tan Wenbin turned to look at Yin Meng, who was still clutching her chest and catching her breath. Perhaps losing control of the insects was secondary; the main issue was the lingering fear now.

The thought of having sacrificed a pair of rotten dog testicles to the ancestors seemed dreamlike to her.

Tan Wenbin comforted, "Take it easy."

Yin Meng nodded vigorously, "I'm trying."

"Boom!"

By now, the dog was unable to resist the assault anymore, continuously driven back under Zhao Yi's led offensive, the level of its degradation further intensified.

However, just as Zhao Yi deemed it was near done, the dog suddenly lunged, its boil-like swellings bursting wide open.

The dog's pounce targeted the area guarded by the Liang Sisters, and both the desperate leap and the splattering toxic liquid compelled the Liang Sisters to instinctively retreat.

Its death was certain, and being dragged down with it for nothing was worthless.
