Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts-Chapter 606 - 170: Just an Accidental Injury_1

How long has it been?

For how long have I not thrown my all into it?

Tang Haofei didn't know the answer to that question. As a Son of Earth, when the apocalypse arrived in the blink of an eye, he had already obtained a power that ordinary people could never imagine.

How potent is this power?

Tang Haofei could unequivocally tell everyone—that even a pig, as long as it got the protagonist's template coupled with the Rebirth plug-in, would become an unsolvable entity!

It's impossible. Impossible for any being to defeat me, whether in the past, now, or the future!

And now, as every single cell within him activated, Tang Haofei felt an ecstasy he hadn't experienced in a long time.

No need to suppress my power; I can freely exert my strength without worrying that a simple sneeze might instantaneously kill low-level professionists.

But, the pitiful part is, this power is being used to carry out something I don't want to do.

Thinking of this, Tang Haofei sighed softly.

If Lin Haifeng had been chopped to death by this sword, it might have been far better.

No! Lin Haifeng cannot die! If Lin Haifeng dies...

Upon thinking this, Tang Haofei quickly pushed these thoughts from his mind and looked ahead.

His mind raced. With his unimaginably acute vision, Tang Haofei precisely determined the flight trajectory of the Sword Light.

Then, for the most crucial part of this plan, Tang Haofei slowed down.

...

To onlookers, the drop in Tang Haofei's speed was not noticeable—even in their eyes, Tang Haofei's figure and the speed of the Sword Light were almost the same.

From 100 meters per second down to 99 meters per second, ordinary people could not discern such a difference.

Perhaps the only one in the world who could make out such a difference with their naked eyes was Wen Yu.

All they could see was the silver Sword Light flashing past and then instantly striking Lin Haifeng and his men!

SHREEE!!!

BOOM!

Two distinct sounds rang out almost simultaneously, followed by overwhelming Energy Fluctuations.

Everyone who perceived these Energy Fluctuations fell silent.

...

After a while, when the smoke cleared, the crowd outside finally saw the scene inside.

Of the remaining nine Sea King Tribe members, five were instantly killed in the energy explosion, leaving only four, grievously wounded, on the ground.

Qin Tian, who had unleashed the sword strike, had already vanished from the scene.

Amidst the pulverized remains of the rostrum, the only one still standing was Tang Haofei.

Tang Haofei supported Lin Haifeng with one hand and the Sea King with the other. He first glanced at the numerous sword wounds on both of them, then casually asked, "Are you alright?"

"It's nothing, just collateral damage. Luckily, you arrived in time."

Ignoring the pain from his wounds, the Sea King, his face turning green, spoke. Inwardly, he lamented his terrible luck today, having barely escaped with his life.

Lin Haifeng also ignored his wounds. Saying he was fine, he looked at Tang Haofei.

Then, Lin Haifeng saw Tang Haofei give a slight wink with his right eye.

The plan was a success!

...

The ghastly Sword Light, like a luminous moon, illuminated Lin Haifeng's face.

Facing the profound terror between life and death, Lin Haifeng didn't flinch at all.

This Sword Light was the most crucial part of their plan, meticulously calculated by Fran and rehearsed by Tang Haofei and Qin Tian.

In fact, to guard against certain "unexpected" factors, Lin Haifeng's space ring contained countless items capable of withstanding this sword attack.

Overall, in Lin Haifeng's eyes, Qin Tian's attack was like a common special effect in a movie—nothing to worry about or praise.

"How dare you!!!"

A furious roar echoed from somewhere behind him. Then, Lin Haifeng felt the Sword Light drawing nearer, while the terrifying aura from behind also closed in rapidly, until the two were about to converge!

...

Watching the figures of Lin Haifeng and the Sea King drawing ever closer, Tang Haofei silently estimated his own speed of advance.

Still a little too fast...

Thinking this, Tang Haofei slowed down a fraction more. Meanwhile, his hands moved swiftly, his left hand gently touching the space ring on his right.

With Tang Haofei's strength, it was impossible for any living entity present to notice such a simple movement!

When the action was complete, a creamy-white worm, about the size of an adult's little finger, was already nestled in Tang Haofei's palm.

**Heart-eating Worm (Special Item, Biological):** A biological weapon developed by an unknown civilization. The complete set of Heart-eating Worms is divided into young worms and a mother worm. After the Heartbiter Mother Worm is born, it binds to a host and cannot be changed or extracted. Depending on the flesh and blood nutrients consumed by the Heartbiter Mother Worm before its birth, it will produce a varying number of heart-eating worms seven days after birth.

**Heart-eating Worm Effects:** Insert the Heart-eating Worm into the target unit's wound. The worm will autonomously burrow into the wound and then stealthily move to the target unit's brain, undetected by the target.

Upon reaching the target unit's brain, the Heart-eating Worm will activate, influencing the target's thoughts and making them unknowingly obedient to the host of the Heartbiter Mother Worm.

**Note:** The target life form for a Heart-eating Worm's infestation must have a wound large enough to accommodate the worm's body. If the target unit has no wounds or the scent of blood, the Heart-eating Worm cannot complete its infestation.

**Note:** The maximum strength of a life form that a Heart-eating Worm can infest depends on the life strength of the Heartbiter Mother Worm's host. The physical constitution of the infested individual cannot exceed five times that of the Heartbiter Mother Worm's host.

**Note:** Once a Heart-eating Worm has infested a host, it cannot be extracted and is considered a one-time consumable.

...

Holding in his left hand what Lin Haifeng claimed was the only Heart-eating Worm, Tang Haofei stared intently at the advancing Sword Light.

He waited until the Sword Light sliced precisely into Lin Haifeng and the Sea King.

The cold, sharp Sword Light tore through Lin Haifeng's clothes and the Sea King's scales.

At this moment, Tang Haofei's concentration was unprecedented!

The instant the Sword Qi penetrated the bodies of Lin Haifeng and the Sea King, Tang Haofei kicked off powerfully with both legs, hurtling directly towards the source of the Sword Light!

...

Thunderbolt Flashing from his right hand, Tang Haofei's entire body seemed clad in battle armor forged from lightning. Sensing the intangible Sword Light, now close at hand, Tang Haofei clenched his right fist and smashed it down towards the Sword Light!

Qin Tian's Hundredfold Strike.

Tang Haofei's all-out blow!

BOOM!

The thunder around his right fist shattered, and the Sword Qi dispersed.

Equivalent to mutual destruction, I suppose...

Amidst the deafening explosion and raging Energy Fluctuations, Tang Haofei paid no heed to the Sea King Clan members blasted far away behind him. Shielding Lin Haifeng with his right hand, his left hand quickly brushed against the Sea King's wound before he supported the Sea King as well. He then asked,

"Are you alright?"

"It's nothing, just collateral damage..."
