“Flower-Plucking Finger”!
Whoosh—
The instant he seized the four men, all four of Xiao Zizai’s palms simultaneously formed the shape of plucking a flower. Invisible true energy condensed between his fingers, and four tiny “black holes” took shape, distorting even the air around them.
He knew all too well that the higher a Gu master’s cultivation, the more bizarre their methods became. Destroying their bodies alone might not be enough to kill them outright. Their cultivation and the core of their Gu arts had to be eradicated as well!
“!!!”
In that instant, all four Gu masters widened their eyes in shock. They could feel the irresistible suction continuing to invade their limbs and organs, drawing out the Gu worms within their bodies!
“What is this bastard trying to do?”
Realizing that something was terribly wrong, fear and horror surfaced simultaneously in their eyes. Yet their Governing Vessels had already been sealed the moment they fell into the enemy’s hands, leaving them utterly unable to struggle. They could only watch helplessly as the Gu worms inside them were forcibly drawn toward their necks!
Gurgle, squirm—
In the blink of an eye, their necks began to swell. Countless Gu worms piled up there, while suffocation and excruciating pain swept through their minds, leaving them utterly blank.
“Ugh… ugh… ngh…!”
Instinctively, the four men opened their mouths and let out muffled howls, but the cries were quickly drowned out by the chittering of insects in their throats. When their necks swelled to the limit, as large as basketballs—
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Four explosions of flesh rang out in succession. Their corpses crashed to the ground, while four pitch-black spheres appeared in Xiao Zizai’s hands.
“How disgusting…”
Looking at the densely packed Gu worms writhing across the spheres, Xiao Zizai frowned in disgust.
The next moment, all four of his palms exerted force. True energy poured forth, and the four spheres began compressing simultaneously. The sounds of crushing and grinding rang out without pause—
Crack, crack!
In an instant, they were crushed into powder, which scattered across the ground.
Clap, clap, clap, clap!
After vigorously dusting off his hands, Xiao Zizai raised an eyebrow and turned toward the remaining Gu masters.
“Are there any more like those?”
“If not… then let’s continue~”
He tilted his head, a playful smile curling across his face.
“Wait!”

Only now did the President of the Medicine Immortal Society, who had been hiding in the shadows and observing the situation, finally lose his patience. Even the Four Great Guardians under his command had been unable to do anything to this man. If things continued like this, the entire Medicine Immortal Society would be annihilated.
Tap, tap, tap…
As a clear set of footsteps rang out, the Gu worms swarming through the surroundings abruptly fell silent. The remaining Gu masters also stepped aside, opening a path as a figure slowly emerged.
Unlike ordinary Gu masters, this man was not gaunt. On the contrary, he was powerfully built, his bronze-colored skin brimming with strength. His muscles bulged like twisted cords, and with his bald head and thick beard, he looked more like a master of hardened-body cultivation.
Stopping ten meters in front of Xiao Zizai, he clasped his fists and said, “I am Jin Quan, President of the Medicine Immortal Society. I wonder what offense our society may have given you. Would you be willing to sit down and discuss the matter?”
He could tell that this man was certainly not affiliated with the Company. Charging in alone and slaughtering his way through the society was not the Company’s style. There must be some grievance involved, though he had no idea what it was.
But if this was merely a matter of personal enmity, then there was still room for negotiation. Moreover, the refinement of the Gu Child had reached a critical stage. Nothing could be allowed to go wrong at this moment!
However, just as Jin Quan raised a hand, intending to invite Xiao Zizai inside to sit down and discuss the situation, his pupils suddenly contracted—
“?!!”
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Zizai, who had been ten meters away, suddenly appeared directly before him. His four massive hands spread wide, then snapped together, and four Great Compassion Palms struck out in an instant!
Whoom—!!!
“Damn it!”
Feeling the powerful winds and sharp sonic booms assaulting him from all sides, Jin Quan watched as four enormous palm prints, gleaming with a reddish-gold light, bore down upon him. The threat of death instantly surged into his heart. Without another thought, he let out a furious roar and erupted with power!
“Wuuu—”
At once, a strange chorus of insects rang out from within his body. Invisible sound waves spread in every direction, while his body began swelling just as Xiao Zizai’s had. Countless lumps writhed beneath his skin.
“Diamond Gu!”
“Great Strength Gu!”
“Cicada Cry Gu!”
“Blood-Burning Gu!”
Gurgle, squirm!
Almost instantly, the four trump cards within Jin Quan activated simultaneously. His body became as hard as diamond, his strength soared to unimaginable heights, and the life-or-death cry of a cicada emerging from the earth combined with the burning of his vital essence and the exhaustion of his lifespan to push his power directly to its peak!
The next moment, he abruptly raised both arms and blocked Xiao Zizai’s palms head-on. Amid the vibrating cry of the cicadas, he even managed to stop the phantom images of the Great Compassion Palms, preventing them from advancing another inch!
However…
To Jin Quan’s dismay, although his strength could now match his opponent’s, two fists were still no match for four hands—especially when the opponent truly had four hands.
Bang! Bang!

The next moment, two tremendous impacts rang out. Xiao Zizai’s other two palm prints struck Jin Quan squarely in the waist and abdomen, unobstructed.
“Pfft—!!!”
Blood burst from his mouth. His body doubled over, and he was about to be sent flying—
But then…
Smack!
The instant Jin Quan’s body rose from the ground, Xiao Zizai’s two palms, which had been held back, followed the motion and changed from strikes into grabs, clamping tightly around his wrists before yanking him back by force.
Before the man could react, Xiao Zizai’s eyes narrowed. His other two hands seized Jin Quan by the legs, and all four arms exerted force at once—
Rip—!!!
His four limbs were torn off in an instant. Xiao Zizai then seized the man’s head and slammed it down.
Bang!
With no unnecessary flourish, he drove Jin Quan’s head into the ground. Then he raised a fist—
Bang!
It crashed down upon him like a heavy hammer.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Without the slightest change in expression, Xiao Zizai repeatedly lifted his fist and brought it down with brutal force. The ground shattered and caved in almost immediately, while Jin Quan’s body was quickly reduced to a mass of pulp. Countless Gu worms crawled out from among the bloody remains.
“Dragon Sucking Water!”
Unwilling to leave behind even the slightest possibility of survival, Xiao Zizai’s four palms released an irresistible suction, drawing all the insects into his hands.
The Flower-Plucking Finger appeared once more, crushing every last one of them into powder.
Only after confirming that Jin Quan had no chance of survival did Xiao Zizai finally rise again. He brushed the scraps and filth from his palms, then turned once more toward the surrounding crowd, who stood frozen in terror, and lightly flexed his ten fingers.
The main course was finished, but there were still desserts left. Naturally, Xiao Zizai had no intention of letting them escape. In the blink of an eye, his figure flashed forward once more—
“AAAAAAAH—!!!”
A chorus of shrieks rose again. Gu worms tumbled to the ground, their firm faith crushed beneath merciless force, while despair spread throughout the entire cavern.
