Chapter 1112: Catastrophe Containment
Pi Yanping's poison is quite domineering, sealing off all of Egger's movements while also shutting off his senses, leaving him completely ignorant of the outside world.
But Egger is an old hand in the Jianghu, he wouldn't just wait for death, so he continuously fought back using the corruption energy within his body.
After all, he is a Catastrophe-Level Expert, the limits of his abilities are beyond what Pi Yanping could imagine.
Under the original course of events, even if Egger could break through the blockade himself, Crooked Dragon and Pi Yanping's plan would succeed.
But with Wen Wen's interference, Egger obtained a valuable, breathing opportunity.
Egger neutralized all the poison within him and was rapidly restoring his strength, retaining only the appearance of being poisoned to surprise whoever came his way by completely neutralizing the toxin.
He knew that Crooked Dragon and Pi Yanping both had True Sequence power, and the interfering superpower user was also at True Sequence, so he only needed to prepare enough strength to deal with two True Sequence opponents.
However, he didn't know that while he was recovering his strength, Wen Wen had already transformed into the Catastrophe State, easily dealing with Pi Yanping and Crooked Dragon.
Egger sensed a slight footstep, knowing someone was approaching, so he grinned and unleashed astonishing power, rotten flesh grew from his severed limbs, replacing his original fists and feet.
"Die, you insignificant insects, I want you to know that the dignity of a Catastrophe-Level expert is not something you can easily offend!"
"Dignity my ass, you're screwed!"
Egger was momentarily stunned, suddenly discovering that it had turned dark.
No, it wasn't that it turned dark; a massive Black Cross descended from the sky.
This cross slammed directly onto his head, deeply embedding into the soil, and the rotten flesh composing his limbs quickly turned into bloodwater, returning him to a state akin to a human swine.
"What, what is this situation?"
In the deep pit created by the crash of the cross, Egger looked at the sky in bewilderment.
The massive strength he had built up with all his might was completely obliterated by this gigantic Black Cross in an instant.
Next, he could only watch helplessly as Black Chains surged in from all directions, tightly binding him and then yanking him out of the deep pit, bringing his line of sight level with Wen Wen's.
"Long time no see, do you remember me?"
Lowering his voice, Wen Wen mimicked the voice of the Black Night Knight to ask Egger, not explaining why he mimicked that voice; he just felt it had the flavor of a big boss.
"It's you!"
Egger stared wide-eyed at Wen Wen, disbelief written all over his face.
The superpower users who entered this world should have been only those people from Yuriano back then; why would the Black Cross be here?
"Can't figure it out?"
"If you can't figure it out, don't think about it, you'll have plenty of time to ponder later."
Wen Wen didn't waste words, worried about unexpected developments allowing Egger to escape, so he directly pulled Egger into the Sanctuary.
The process of containing a Catastrophe-Level expert went somewhat differently than Wen Wen imagined.
Originally, he thought just locking Egger inside would suffice, but didn't expect it to directly trigger a phenomenon around them.
In the sky appeared a shadow of a strange, indescribable creature formed from corrupted flesh.
In the chest and abdomen of this creature was a massive energy source, making even those completely ignorant of the extraordinary world instinctively recognize at first sight that this shadow was a terrifying Evil God.
Wen Wen knew this shadow represented Egger; perhaps if Egger shed his human facade, he would actually look like this.
Behind Egger's shadow was a huge black door, each door adorned with a fierce Demon God, gripping the door handles with two hands.
The door was slowly pulled open by the Demon God. Numerous Black Chains extended from the door, binding Egger's shadow.
The enormous shadow uttered a soul-shaking roar, the energy source at its center radiating immense power, but all resistance was futile, and eventually, the shadow was slowly pulled into the gate inch by inch.
The black door slowly closed and finally disappeared completely, leaving a giant shadow of a Black Cross hanging in the air, lingering for a long time.
The whole process was extremely shocking, more thrilling than an 18D blockbuster movie.
Wen Wen couldn't say exactly how large the shadow and door were, as even ordinary people hundreds of miles away could see the phenomenon in its entirety, and the scenes they witnessed didn't differ much from what Wen Wen saw.
Perhaps this phenomenon had no concept of size at all; it manifested indiscriminately in the minds of the people around.
From the beginning of the transformation to stuffing Egger into the Sanctuary, Wen Wen spent less than five minutes, initially thinking it would take at least seven or eight minutes.
This indicated that his strength under the Catastrophe State had increased; the first time he fought in this state against a weakened Egger, Wen Wen barely matched him.
This time, if facing Egger in that state again, Wen Wen was confident he could easily suppress him.
This wasn't due to an increase in Wen Wen's power, but because he had become more familiar with the strength of the Cataclysm Prison.
The Cataclysm Prison's power had already undergone several level enhancements by the Catastrophe Containment Facility, so its basic strength level wasn't weaker than other Star Realm Gods, even slightly stronger.
The apparent underperformance compared to other Catastrophe-Level entities was merely because Wen Wen wasn't yet familiar with it.
In the next few minutes of transformation time, Wen Wen didn't waste it but instead used this Catastrophe-Level power to meticulously explore the surrounding environment.
The undead disaster in the north had already erupted, and clouds laden with a strong undead aura were drifting towards Wen Wen.
Once that rain fell, it would transform the entire Xia Manor's land into an environment highly suitable for undead survival.
Within Wen Wen's range of perception, many corpses had already crawled out from the ground, turning into mindless, instinct-driven zombies, while some entities that were originally ghostly spirits gained considerable strength.
This was just the initial stage of the undead disaster; more horrifying events would emerge later.
The resulting changes would plunge the people of Xia Mansion's Land into chaos, giving rise to monsters born from their panic.
If left unchecked, this monster would inevitably grow to a Catastrophe-Level extent.
Moreover, the outbreak of the undead disaster also signaled the birth of Catastrophe-Level Ghost Gods in the north...
This incomplete world was on the verge of entering a turbulent new era.
Wen Wen sighed, and retreated into the Sanctuary.
He wished to help the people here, but his primary mission at this stage was to find a way back to the real world.
Only after addressing this urgent need could he afford to think about how to save the world.
