Chapter 106: Corrosion, the Voidbearer

“Watch out!”
Hua Piaowu’s face paled, despair surging in her heart.
Terrifying!
Absolutely terrifying!
If this psychic shockwave were to hit her, death would be inevitable!
Mother!
Save me!
Instinctively, she closed her eyes, bracing for death’s arrival.

In the next moment, the shockwave swept toward the group.
Just as it was about to strike them, the jade pendant on Xu Han’s body glowed with an earthy yellow light.
“Roar!”
A deafening roar erupted.
Then, a towering phantom of a fierce tiger, dozens of meters tall, appeared, enveloping the three of them completely.

Bang!
The shockwave struck the tiger phantom, shattering instantly like glass.
A faint smile curved Xu Han’s lips.
He possessed the Tiger God Jade Pendant.
The pendant carried the soul of a divine tiger.
No psychic attack could affect him.

Wan Shou stared at the divine tiger phantom, a flicker of fear crossing his eyes.
He felt an overwhelming pressure emanating from the tiger’s soul.
Hua Piaowu and Qin Xuanyi cautiously opened their eyes, staring in shock at the tiger spirit protecting them.
What was this tiger phantom?
Their gazes instinctively fixed on Xu Han.
It had to be him!
He could actually withstand the Void Demon’s psychic shockwave?
How strong was he?
To effortlessly block an attack from a fourth-tier powerhouse!

Hua Piaowu looked at Xu Han’s back, her eyes full of curiosity.
The divine tiger soul appeared briefly before dissipating.
The fear in Wan Shou’s heart vanished.
He fixed his cold gaze on Xu Han once more.
“Interesting human, to be able to block my psychic shockwave.”
“You have piqued my interest.”
“I want to dissect you and study your brain.”

He turned toward the barely breathing Blizzard Giant Bear.
Tentacles swiftly spread, wrapping around the beast.
A pitch-black liquid oozed from the tentacles, covering the bear’s body.

“Roar!”
The Blizzard Giant Bear let out a pained roar, struggling desperately to break free.
No matter how it struggled, the tentacles held firm.

Moments later, the Blizzard Giant Bear suddenly ceased struggling, lying still on the ground.
Xu Han stared intently at the beast.
He sensed something strange about its aura.
The wounds on its body were gradually enveloped by dark red flesh.
Its fur shed continuously, revealing raw, crimson muscle beneath.
Within that flesh, black veins spread, radiating an eerie aura.

A muffled sound —
A blood-red tentacle pierced through the Blizzard Giant Bear’s flesh, writhing wildly.
Hua Piaowu and Qin Xuanyi paled in terror.
The scene was beyond anything they had imagined.

A second, a third tentacle…
Within seconds, over a dozen blood-red tentacles burst from the bear’s body, writhing with sinister life.
The Blizzard Giant Bear’s tightly shut eyes suddenly snapped open.
Its left eye had transformed into a blood-red tentacle.
The right eye glowed with a fierce scarlet light.
A terrifying murderous aura filled the air, chilling the blood.

Xu Han frowned slightly.
Could this be Corruption?
His eyes glowed with a pale golden light again.
Information about the beast appeared before him:

[Name: Void Giant Bear (Golden-tier Boss)]
[Race: Bear Clan]
[Level: 40]
[Skill 1: Corruption Blizzard Lv.1 (Summons a blizzard to assault enemies; those touched suffer 30% all-attribute reduction; after 1 minute of Corruption, enemies become the Blizzard Giant Bear’s puppets for 1 minute; cooldown 10 minutes)]
[Skill 2: Void Flesh Lv.4 (Passive skill, reduces damage taken by 30%)]
[Skill 3: Devour Lv.3 (The bear devours enemy corpses to restore health; cooldown 10 minutes)]

[Skill 5: Void Crawlers Lv.1 (Summons Void Crawlers from its body to attack enemies; can summon 10 at a time; cooldown 10 minutes)]

This creature’s power had skyrocketed!
It had become a level 40 golden-tier boss, and all its skills had evolved.

Wan Shou laughed coldly, “Hahaha… Let it deal with you, insignificant humans.”
The tentacles retracted slowly.
The massive beast rose, resembling a towering mountain of flesh.
The grotesque tentacles writhed wildly.
One tentacle bulged violently, as if something inside was trying to break free.

Pffft…
The flesh tore open, blood splattered.

A blood-red worm about a meter long fell out with a thud.
It resembled a centipede, but its head was covered with countless blood-red compound eyes.
Around its body were numerous blood-red tentacles.
The tentacles writhed as the small body darted rapidly toward Xu Han and the others.

Qin Xuanyi and Hua Piaowu paled again, retreating in fear.
Women often harbored a natural terror for insect-like beasts.

Xu Han raised his hand.
A deep red fireball quickly formed in his palm.
“Exploding Fireball!”

Boom!
The fireball smashed directly into the worm.
With a loud blast, the worm was blasted in two, writhing on the ground.

Xu Han watched the small creature.
This Void Crawler was remarkably resilient.
Just as he was about to finish it off,

Puff, puff, puff —
Several more Void Crawlers burst out from the Blizzard Giant Bear, falling to the ground and crawling rapidly toward Xu Han.

Xu Han narrowed his eyes.
You have summons, so do I!
He waved his hand casually.
“Undead Summoning!”

A dark purple magic circle appeared before him.
Moments later, a skeleton warrior clad in tattered armor materialized.
The skeleton raised its bloodstained cleaver and swung at one Void Crawler.

Slash!
The Void Crawler was cleaved in two.
But the others swarmed, binding the skeleton warrior tightly.

“Frost Assault!”
Xu Han raised the Ice Blue Blade.
Cold frost gathered on the blade.
He swung the dagger.
A howling cold wind surged toward the Void Crawlers.

The ones tearing at the skeleton were instantly frozen solid, turned to ice sculptures.

“Roar!”
Little Tiger growled lowly as a giant boulder fell from above, smashing precisely onto a Void Crawler.

Boom!
The creature didn’t even scream before being crushed into a pulp.

Xu Han stomped his foot sharply, his body blurring into a shadow as he charged toward the Blizzard Giant Bear.

The bear lifted its massive paw and met him head-on!
