"Fuck!"
"This damn thing has completely lost it."
Jiang Qiao's eyelids twitched wildly at the sight of the deranged Hu Yongchang. It had been a long time since he had encountered anything so utterly unreasonable. Despite possessing self-awareness, the creature simply rambled on, refusing to communicate at all.
That alone would have been bad enough, but the bastard had even produced a massive tentacle to attack him.
Whoosh!
The tentacle was incredibly fast and vicious.
As it swung, it tore straight through the void, violently shattering the surrounding space.
At that moment.
Hu Yongchang finally displayed the terrifying power of an Eighth Tier evil spirit. This was also Jiang Qiao's first true head-on encounter with Eighth Tier supernatural power since returning to his home timeline.
In the previous timeline.
Although he had faced a Supernatural Space at the end, its source malevolent ghost had not truly been born yet.
It had even been tricked.
That girl surnamed Xie had seized the vicious ghost's body.
In this timeline.
He had also passed through a certain Supernatural Space, crossing directly from the south to the north.
But there, too.
The Source Evil Spirit had never shown up.
Strictly speaking, then, he had witnessed Eighth Tier power without actually facing it head-on.
As for Rakshasa Lake later on.
It had naturally been terrifying, far beyond the Eighth Tier.
But the same point still stood.
Jiang Qiao had never truly faced an Eighth Tier evil spirit.
In short.
This was his first such encounter in all this time!
"Well, damn."
"If something like you got loose, finding someone strong enough to subdue you in this era wouldn't be easy."
The instant the tentacle shattered space.
Their surroundings went dark.
Everything around them—the ground, the trees, Hu Family Manor...
Underwent extreme distortion in the blink
