The modified SUV roared like a steel beast, crushing the pothole-ridden suburban road as it sped toward the funeral home shrouded in dark clouds.
Chen Tao floored the accelerator, his expression grim.
"The energy readings are still climbing! They've stabilized at Fierce Soul Grade (Grade A)! The underground level is completely shrouded in yin energy, and thermal imaging has failed! Too many corpse puppets and resentful spirits are pouring out! The brothers can barely hold on!" Chen Tao roared into the encrypted communicator, cold sweat covering his forehead.
Fang Gang sat in the passenger seat with his eyes closed, his cultivation technique circulating within him. Two hundred and ten Evolution Points had to be used where they mattered most!
"Upgrade! Vajra Indestructible Body!" The command was issued in his mind.
Ding! 200 Evolution Points consumed! True Vajra Indestructible Body upgraded to Minor Mastery (0/500)!
A vast force, condensed and heavy, wholly devoted to ultimate defense, instantly flooded his limbs and bones! Beneath his skin, the originally faintly circulating protective qi suddenly became distinct and solid, like pale golden liquid flowing through his body!
The skin, fascia, and even the outermost muscle fibers throughout his body were being compressed, tempered, and hardened at a terrifying speed!
An indestructible will rose naturally within him!
Ding! True Vajra Indestructible Body (Minor Mastery)!

His physique and strength had increased! The prototype of the Indestructible Golden Body had formed!
Fang Gang opened his eyes. A flash of brilliance passed through his pale golden pupils, and the light golden protective qi flowing beneath his skin faded away. His entire presence became even more steady and imposing, like a mountain.
"We're here!" Chen Tao slammed on the brakes, and the SUV screeched to a halt in front of the funeral home's main building.
The sight before them was suffocating!
Thick, ink-black yin energy churned from the cracks in the main building's doors and windows like a living thing, engulfing the entire structure in near-solid darkness.
The sinister wind howled, sweeping up dead leaves and gravel from the ground with a shriek like wailing ghosts.
The air reeked of corpses and blood, along with a bone-deep chill.
In the open space before the main building, Special Affairs Bureau field agents were using several overturned cars as cover, locked in a bitter battle.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Sizzle!
Gunfire flashed. Special evil-breaking bullets struck the Purple Zombies, whose skin had turned violet, whose movements were stiff, and whose nails were black and sharp. Weak bursts of fire erupted, but they only made the creatures pause briefly; they could not inflict fatal injuries!
More Purple Zombies poured continuously out of the main entrance and shattered windows, like a violet tide!
"Hold them! Hold them! Where are the talismans?!" A burly man who looked like a captain roared, his large-caliber shotgun spewing fire as it blasted a Purple Zombie rushing toward him backward. Yet more immediately lunged forward to take its place.
"The talismans are used up! Reinforcements haven't arrived yet!" one agent shouted despairingly. A Purple Zombie had clawed his arm, and the wound rapidly blackened and festered!
Even worse, several faster, stronger, deathly pale White Zombies were mixed among the Purple Zombies!
They moved like agile leopards, easily evading bullets and tearing apart cover. Every pounce brought a bloody, foul wind!
One agent failed to dodge in time and was pierced straight through the chest by a White Zombie's claws!
"Ah—!" The scream cut off abruptly.
An atmosphere of despair spread.
"Fatty Chen! Where the hell are the reinforcements you brought?!" Captain Zhang roared at Chen Tao, who had just gotten out of the car, his eyes nearly splitting apart.
"The reinforcements are right here!" Chen Tao pointed at Fang Gang beside him.
Everyone's gazes instantly focused on Fang Gang.
That gleaming bald head, carrying a faint golden sheen, was exceptionally conspicuous in the dim light. His upright body radiated an oppressive presence as steady and heavy as a mountain.
"Just him? A... bald guy?" A new agent beside Captain Zhang blurted out instinctively, his tone carrying disbelief and a trace of despairing mockery.
At a time like this, Fatty Chen had brought over a light bulb?
Fang Gang ignored every gaze.
His eyes pierced through the churning yin energy and chaotic battlefield, locking tightly onto the depths of the main building's pitch-black entrance.
There, an even colder, more violent, terrifying will carrying the aura of a bloody bridal gown was slowly awakening like a slumbering beast! The gray mark on his arm sent waves of needle-like pain through him, as if responding to it!
"Evolution Points... are inside!" Savage light burst from Fang Gang's eyes! Without another word, he moved!
The solid concrete beneath his feet exploded like a brittle cracker! Rubble flew as the power of Savage Elephant Stomp, enhanced by his agility, erupted!
His body instantly became a pale golden blur that tore through the sinister wind. With a low sonic boom, he ignored the dense swarm of Purple Zombies ahead and shot straight toward the main building's entrance like an armor-piercing shell!

"What the hell! Has he gone insane?!" Captain Zhang and the agents' eyes nearly popped out! That was a zombie tide of dozens, maybe hundreds! Was he charging in there to die?!
"Roar!" Several Purple Zombies standing in Fang Gang's path let out shrieks and lunged at him with black claws raised!
"Get lost!" Fang Gang did not even throw a punch! He merely pushed his Minor Mastery Vajra Indestructible Body to its limits!
The prototype of the "Indestructible Golden Body" erupted into view! The pale golden qi beneath his skin instantly became solid!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Several Purple Zombies crashed into him as though they had struck a speeding alloy tank!
At the moment of contact, their sharp nails scraped glaring sparks against the pale golden qi. Then, under the terrifying rebounding force and impact, their fragile bodies were torn apart like rotten sacks!
Dark purple filth-blood, shattered bones, and organs splattered through the air!
Fang Gang did not slow down in the slightest! Like a humanoid bulldozer, he plowed a path of flesh and blood through the swarm of Purple Zombies!
Every Purple Zombie in his way, whether clawing or biting, met only one fate upon striking him—being smashed to pieces!
"This... this is fucking..." Captain Zhang's mouth hung open. He had even forgotten to fire his shotgun as he stared at Fang Gang rampaging through the corpse horde, utterly unstoppable, his mind blank.
Was that even human? That was clearly a humanoid weapon! A humanoid fortress!
"See that, Old Zhang?! I wasn't lying to you!"
Chen Tao slapped his thigh excitedly and pointed at Fang Gang's back as he roared, "I told you! Those muscles of his work better than your talismans!!" He had finally shouted that classic line!
Fang Gang had already charged through the main entrance like a cannonball, vanishing into the churning, dense yin energy.
Behind him lay a mess of zombie fragments and a group of completely petrified Special Affairs Bureau agents.
Inside the main building, the cold pierced to the bone, and visibility was extremely low. The dense yin energy was like viscous liquid, carrying intense spiritual erosion and a slowing effect.
Broken freezer parts and frozen filth-blood were scattered across the floor. Harsh scraping sounds and low zombie roars echoed from every direction.
Warning! High-intensity yin energy environment! Spiritual erosion intensified! Physical movement speed reduced by 30%! Detected a large number of corpse puppets (Purple Zombie Grade/White Zombie Grade) approaching!
Fang Gang snorted coldly. Dragon Elephant qi and blood erupted within him! The blazing Qi and Blood Furnace burned inside him like a miniature sun, instantly driving away the invading cold and spiritual interference!
Vajra Body Protection Qi flowed over his body, blocking the viscous yin energy outside! His speed returned to normal!
"Come out and die!" Fang Gang growled, his voice echoing through the empty, sinister hall.
The response was even more violent zombie roars!
Roar! Roar! Roar!
Dozens of Purple Zombies rushed out of the darkness with howls! Mixed among them were three White Zombies, faster and stronger, with deathly pale skin and ghostly green flames flickering in their eyes!
One particularly huge White Zombie was gripping a thick iron chain covered in ice spikes and barbs, radiating an icy chill!
The chain dragged across the floor with a clattering metallic scrape. Wherever it passed, a thin layer of frost formed on the ground!
"Frost Corpse Chain?" Fang Gang's eyes narrowed. That weapon was somewhat interesting. But it would not change their fate!
Facing the surging corpse horde, Fang Gang advanced instead of retreating!
"Golden Body Protection!" he shouted, actively activating the divine ability of his Minor Mastery Vajra Indestructible Body!
A layer of incomparably solid protective qi, over an inch thick and seemingly forged from solid gold, instantly covered his entire body!
It turned him into a pale golden war god! Its glow even briefly dispersed the yin energy around him!
The next instant, Fang Gang moved!
Savage Elephant Power erupted from his Bone Tempering jade bones! Facing the corpse tide, he threw a punch!
Boom—!!!
His fist wind was like an enraged dragon emerging from the sea! The air was blasted apart by sheer force! White shockwaves surged violently forward in a fan shape!
The seven or eight Purple Zombies at the very front did not even have time to scream before the violent fist wind and terrifying pressure smashed them apart like porcelain struck by a giant hammer, exploding them into filthy chunks of flesh and blood!
The White Zombie leader wielding the Frost Corpse Chain roared, swinging the heavy chain toward Fang Gang's head with bone-piercing cold and howling force! The icy barbs on the chain gleamed with deadly frost!
"Courting death!" Savage light flashed through Fang Gang's eyes. He neither dodged nor evaded! His head, covered in thick golden qi, smashed fiercely into the incoming Frost Corpse Chain!
Clang—!!!!
A deafening boom, like a massive bell being struck, exploded through the mortuary hall!
Sparks scattered! Ice shards flew!
Under the utterly stunned gazes of Chen Tao, Captain Zhang, and the others, who had just reached the doorway, the thick Frost Corpse Chain radiating cold struck that pale golden bald head as though it had collided with ten-thousand-year black iron! It shattered inch by inch!
Broken iron links and ice spikes shot backward like bullets!
Meanwhile, the arm holding the chain shattered from the elbow onward under the terrifying rebounding force, twisting and exploding inch by inch like a brittle dead branch! Thick dark green corpse blood sprayed out!
"Argh—!!!" The White Zombie leader let out a distorted, agonized howl!
Fang Gang did not pause in the slightest! As he smashed apart the corpse chain, his right fist fell like a meteor, carrying the will to crush everything, and slammed viciously into the White Zombie leader's chest, exposed by its agonizing pain!
Bang—!!!
It was like the blast of heavy artillery! The White Zombie's massive body was instantly pierced through! A huge, transparent hole appeared straight through its chest!
The violent fist force burst through its body, blasting apart and tearing several Purple Zombies behind it as well!
Ding! Killed "White Zombie Leader (Grade D+)"! Evolution Points +30!
Ding! Killed Purple Zombie... Evolution Points +5... +5... +5...
The system notifications rang out in rapid succession!
Fang Gang stood bathed in filthy blood and broken bones. His pale golden protective qi slowly receded, while not a drop of blood touched his gleaming bald head, which reflected a cold, hard glint in the dim light.
Like a war god, he stood atop a mountain of corpses and sea of blood. His icy gaze pierced through the wrecked hall and fell upon the alloy door leading to the lowest level of the underground mortuary, covered by a thick layer of ice.
Behind that door, the icy, sticky Sound of Combing Hair, filled with endless resentment and venom, rang out with perfect clarity... and it was getting closer!
