Every step represented the deepest anger within Zheng Yifan, a boiling force coursing through his body. It had been a long time since he felt this way—the kind of rage that wanted to burn everything to ashes.
Li Ning was behind him, facing life and death. Although all the power of the Avatar of the Believers had been gathered back into the Destiny Power released by Li Ning, the damage was still severe.
What is Destiny Power? It is the core of all bodily strength, the most fundamental force within a human body; even Vital Energy is stored there. If there’s a problem with it, that’s a major issue—an absolute major issue.
Zheng Yifan didn’t know what the source of life’s power truly was, but when he saw that red light rushing toward the Giant Mother Zombie with a sense of desperation and determination, he began to understand.
That was the origin of everything, the reliance on Vital Energy. Life stores Vital Energy entirely within the body, contained in Destiny Power. The Destiny Power of a Zombie is its Zombie Crystal; thus, when its Zombie Crystal is lost, it dies. If the main channel connecting the Zombie Crystal and the body disappears, it will also lead to death.
The Giant Mother Zombie also possessed Destiny Power, which certainly existed within its Zombie Crystal. However, Zheng Yifan had no idea where it was located. Unlike ordinary Zombies, its massive body gave him a headache.
Such a large form represented an enormous amount of Zombie Fluid and an even greater energy.
The gathering of so much energy was inherently troublesome. If it dared to self-destruct in the end, Zheng Yifan guaranteed that nothing would remain within a hundred-mile radius.
Even the Treasure Earthworm underground would be no exception; quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes—a timeless truth.
While ten thousand ants may not defeat a tiger, what about one million aggressive ants?
The tiger would undoubtedly perish.
Now, Zheng Yifan was like a Wolf—a lone wolf.
And across from him stood the Giant Mother Zombie, like a tiger.
That massive body could crush Zheng Yifan at any moment. The combined strength of all Hope Gathering Place might not match such overwhelming power.
However, its weaknesses were also quite evident. First, the Giant Mother Zombie only possessed Fifth Level strength, equal to Zheng Yifan's own.
Second, the Giant Mother Zombie could not move. Despite being able to survive by abandoning its roots, once it left the ground, it could not engage in battle. The earth provided energy; Vital Energy supplied the source—both were indispensable.
His fighting style was quite straightforward. Only those Plant Zombies acted like a massive mother nest, continuously nurturing a large number of Low-Level Zombies as their minions.
Undeniably, at certain times, their combat power was formidable, but at other times, it felt somewhat lacking.
For instance, in the current battle against Zheng Yifan, that fierce combat strength had not been fully unleashed.
As Zheng Yifan charged forward, Avatars of the Believers gradually appeared around him, but these Avatars were now even more powerful. Zheng Yifan had absorbed the pink Primordial Pearl, and his strength had once again transcended; the Power of Faith had grown stronger. While underground, he hadn’t felt much difference. However, upon returning to the surface and fighting against the Giant Mother Zombie, he could distinctly sense that overwhelming power.
Looking at his left hand, he lightly clenched his fist; it was a surge of tremendous strength. The Power of Faith was once again overflowing.
Zheng Yifan didn’t know why; he only knew that his power was continuously increasing and believed something unexpected had happened at his Gathering Place.
But that didn’t matter. What Zheng Yifan needed to do now was eliminate the Giant Mother Zombie. The Avatars of the Believers kept appearing, using their bodies to shield the front lines. The most troublesome aspect of the Plant Zombies was their robust bodies and fierce attacks; their vines spread everywhere, leaving no chance for evasion—only a head-on confrontation was possible.
Fortunately, Zheng Yifan wasn’t afraid of this. He lightly tossed his Adamantium Shield.
There was no need for excessive enhancement now; the Vital Energy and Power of Faith attached to the shield possessed formidable strength.
The Adamantium Shield flew out, accompanied by blades of wind on both sides. The radiant wind blades emerged, infused with Power of Faith, shooting forth as powerful waves. Like crashing tides, they attacked amidst the horde of Zombies.
Although they were all produced by the Giant Mother Zombie herself, it still consumed ordinary Zombies and a significant amount of energy.
Nothing in this world came for free; Einstein had long discovered the law of conservation of mass.
Hundreds of thousands of Zombies seemed to be falling like dumplings. Zheng Yifan didn’t know how many he had already let the Avatars of the Believers kill; the Adamantium Shield spun in mid-air like a boomerang, no longer utilizing wind blades but continuously outputting power fixed around the shield, relentlessly charging through the Zombie horde.
In contrast to Zheng Yifan's ferocity, the surrounding Avatars of the Believers clearly weren’t as effective.
Their battles against these Zombies were evenly matched; Plant Zombies had strong defenses and peculiar attacks. As long as their legs were planted on the ground, they could root themselves at any moment.
Zheng Yifan had long discarded any naive thoughts of finding a way out. Now, all that remained was to confront the situation head-on.
Vines of light green surged toward him. He twirled the Silver Spear, infused with the Power of Faith and flames from Wildfire Spreading, shredding all the vines to pieces. Surrounding him were numerous Avatars of the Believers, ensuring his safety.
Ahead, the battle raged fiercely. The Avatars of the Believers felt no pain and knew nothing of death; their selfless fighting was solely to carve a path forward.
On the ground, Zombie Fluid continuously emerged. Even ordinary plants, when stripped of life, left behind this liquid that nourished growth.
Yet, there seemed to be no signs of plant life on the ground; instead, countless plants lay dead.
The Giant Mother Zombie that had fallen from the sky still appeared unchanged, resembling a massive tree growing a Cocoon without any other bizarre phenomena.
However, Zheng Yifan understood that these were merely surface appearances. The roots beneath must hold some value; after all, plant roots absorb nutrients, and so too must the roots of this Giant Mother Zombie.
Beneath the ground lay his root system. As long as his subordinates fell, he could collect the Zombie Fluid again. With just ordinary Zombies, he could create ones comparable to Second-Level Zombies. Fortunately, this was not on the Battlefield of Jiang; otherwise, a few Mutated Zombies working together would have reduced Hope Gathering Place to rubble long ago.
Gazing at the Giant Mother Zombie before him, Zheng Yifan clung to a sliver of hope for victory or perhaps a gamble. He wagered that the wounds inflicted by Li Ning—who had nearly sacrificed his life—would not heal quickly. Those injuries were his weakness. (To be continued...)
