Corpse Recovery Diver-Chapter 1240 - 225:

This left the old woman and the one behind her full of unwillingness and anger, either to leave the battlefield to destroy the package or fight to the death to bite off a piece of the enemy's flesh, but now, neither could be achieved.

Moreover, because the prelude had been set so well, as the battle continued, the old woman's injuries were getting more severe, blood was continuously flowing from her abdomen, and the toxins that hadn't been completely cleaned from her back continued to fester. Her breathing was becoming weaker.

Li Zhiyuan also took action at this moment.

After Run Sheng once again forced the old woman back, a giant eye suddenly appeared under her feet, binding her legs.

Run Sheng immediately opened his air gate, charging forward like a fierce tiger.

The old woman let out a sharp howl, the purple in her eyes ignited, like metal turning into liquid, flowing out from both sides of her eye sockets, covering her body as she desperately fought back.

However, Run Sheng quickly closed his air gate, retreating swiftly as though his bark was worse than his bite.

The old woman glared, wanting to catch up with Run Sheng, but the giant eyes beneath her feet kept appearing one after another quickly, continuously obstructing her movements, like she was stuck in a quagmire.

This was Zhen Sha'an's specialty, the giant eye binding array, its advantage being the speed in setting up, and you need not worry about its short duration because you can compensate with frequency.

The purple in the old woman's eyes was completely drained, the last secret technique exhausted her, yet yielded nothing.

Finally, with a "thump", she knelt forward on the ground.

With hollow eye sockets, a relaxed smile appeared on her face.

Apparently, the one behind her also realized she was of no use anymore and released control over her, allowing her emotions to return to her face.

"Liberated... finally liberated..."

She began to review her life in her mind, back when she was young, she met that person who promised her to grant her power different from others, allowing her to become distinct, and then...

"Snap!"

The old woman's memories were abruptly cut short as her head was cleaved off by Run Sheng's Yellow River Shovel.

In battle and slaughter, it's a life-and-death endeavor, how could there be an opportunity for you to thoroughly reminisce?

"Phew..."

Run Sheng exhaled, standing the blood-dripping shovel beside him.

It wasn't due to exhaustion; he more so felt that he'd just warmed up, clearly, not having to use his brain was indeed comfortable.

Li Zhiyuan pulled out the red line from them, considering this as the first real combat test, the effect was indeed good.

However, just as Li Zhiyuan took two steps forward, he felt a dizziness wash over him, forcing him to clutch his forehead and squat down.

Seeing this, Run Sheng hurried over to ask, "Xiao Yuan, are you exhausted?"

Yin Meng also opened a can of Jianlibao and handed it over: "Brother Xiao Yuan, quickly drink this."

Li Zhiyuan shook his head, he wasn't exhausted.

Instead, he realized that within his consciousness, various scenes from Run Sheng's and Yin Meng's perspectives and their emotions emerged.

This was something that almost never happened before, but now, it truly occurred.

Could it be because I'm now a Heart Demon?

Li Zhiyuan closed his eyes, forcibly suppressing the distracting thoughts in his mind. When he opened his eyes again, clarity returned to them.

"Xiao Yuan?"

"I'm fine, no need to worry." Li Zhiyuan took the Jianlibao from Yin Meng and took a sip, "The package's hiding place won't be complicated, it should be easy to find.

Brother Runsheng, Meng Meng, you two now act separately, go search the supply cooperative, lighthouse, and that fishing boat, focus on places like floor or wall gaps where an idol's altar could be hidden."

"Understood."

"Understood."

Li Zhiyuan waved hand, motioning for them to hurry, while he planned to return to check on the camp.

The explosion at the camp site only sounded once, meaning Tan Wenbin had succeeded there.

Walking along, Li Zhiyuan suddenly stopped.

The sea breeze brushed across his face, carrying a salty chill.

The boy's eyes changed from calm to cold and then back to calm.

With distractions influencing him, his body began to "itch to move".

This didn't mean the new treatment plan was wrong; rather, it precisely proved it was real and effective.

The reason he wasn't affected by these things before was because his condition erased this part.

However, if that's the case, then his Wei Zhengdao Black Book Secret Technique and the recently deduced Red Line, would no longer be perfectly suitable for him. If used excessively, once distractions accumulate to a certain level, he might end up digging a pit under the Peach Forest to become a neighbor.

The boy took a sip of the drink, then lifted the bottle forward, pouring the remaining liquid onto the ground, as if making a toast.

"Don't be too smug; do you think I don't have a way to solve this problem?"

Li Zhiyuan took out the wordless book, turning to the first page, in the cage, the white bone powder of the evil book piled into a grave mound, and a piece of a white bone arm stuck on it, gesturing with an index finger.

Regardless, the evil book's optimistic and resilient mindset in adversity is indeed commendable.

Despite being drained daily, it stubbornly persists in displaying its performance art.

Hmm, just sticking out the index finger signifies resilience; it never had the guts to raise the middle finger.

Rubbing his fingertips on the pages, the boy thought:

Who says a Heart Demon can only backfire once?

Once this wave ends, when I return, I can completely undergo another Heart Demon backlash with Alii's help.
