With a massive RUMBLE, it crashed to the ground, kicking up a towering pillar of dust.
But this wasn't the end.
Its corpse suddenly squirmed as countless emaciated, flesh-and-blood homunculi crawled out. They resembled the Evil Spirit itself—human from the waist up, dragging umbilical cords from their lower bodies as they began to scuttle in all directions.
Lü Zhong then noticed that each of the small figures was completely unique.
He looked to Shuini, but she had no idea what was happening.
A few moments later, after letting out piercing wails, the small, fleshy figures that were scattering everywhere dissolved into bloody puddles. Only then did silence finally fall.
