The torrential rain and storm shook Thunder Mountain.

The resounding booms echoed through the narrow mountain paths, overlapping with each other, like the surging tide. Amidst the noise, even speaking to one another required shouting.

But in that instant, everything abruptly plunged into a momentary silence.

It was as if the ears, all of a sudden, could hear no sound.

In a moment of bewildered daze, the sound of breathing, the heartbeat, the echo of blood flowing through the brain, all became so clear.

Then, like a sprout from the deepest part of the heart—piercing wails!!!

It was as if all the pain and disasters from memories were manifesting at this moment, chain reactions, all the sorrow, bitterness, and torment witnessed in a lifetime resurging, clashing, boiling, until finally... despair unveiled!

Along with the phantoms of malevolent spirits opening their mouths to scream, endless spiritual poison descended with the downpour and violent winds, sketching wave-like hallucinations in the darkness.

Instantly draining a third of the reserves in the Spiritual Cage, bursting forth with a roar.

Hatred, loathing, hunger, murderous intent, greed, venomous malice, a torrent of spiritual essence filled with countless negative emotions roared past, vibrating within the narrow ravines, oscillating back and forth. Like a living thing, writhing, twisting, splitting, plunging into every soul and consciousness, corroding, permeating, and expanding without gaps.

It was as if snakes in the dark suddenly pounced, gnawing at their prey, injecting venom filled with Mutated Pollution, instantly twisting each stupefied face into bizarre forms.

Uncontrollably, they screamed out!

The wailing spread like a plague, covering everyone on the mountain's flanks at a hair-raising speed, then deafening rumbles ensued.

As if the brains were boiling, the souls exploding!

Amidst the wailing, blood seeped from their distorted facial features.

Even more vivid were the spiritual fireworks spewed from their heads, interlaced with countless filthy hues.

Dark green, crimson, dark yellow, pitch black, pale, the colors mingled and intertwined, erupting wildly as they rose.

Fleeting.

Just like an unforeseen fireworks display!

The ambush that was originally full of murderous intent and malice suddenly collapsed amidst the wailing, one by one the figures crawling in the mud quickly lost their voices, like empty shells.

Those not yet unconscious still writhed and wailed, instinctively seeking help, screaming, yet no one responded, unable even to get up, only to futilely wriggle like sufferers of cerebral palsy. Their fingers reflexively contracting, pulling triggers, futilely firing until the gun mechanisms clashed emptily, echoing hollowly.

Dynamite ignited amidst spasms and wriggles, flames flared up suddenly, the mud roared with rolling boulders, crashing down.

The originally tranquil mountains shattered suddenly, yet no one noticed.

Even the fortunate ones who survived the violent onslaught due to their resilience or protective gear were now helpless under the pollution's erosion, in severe injuries, captured by malevolent thoughts, and subconsciously started mutual slaughter.

Even forgetting their skills and weapons, becoming like beasts, relying on claws and fangs, devouring each other, venting the fear and madness in their hearts.

It was like Hell on earth.

Such a scene, even the Chosen Ones waking from stupor found it hard to accept, screaming in fear, scanning around in confusion, instinctively wanting to flee.

Then, they heard the thunderous descent from the sky.

A massive roar!

Amidst the flashes of lightning, a mechanical creature leapt through the air, spanned a distance of hundreds of meters, descending from the sky!

Steel claws trampled the earth, limbs spread wide, an enormous axe, hammer, chainsaw, and machine gun swept across, Pan Ying unsheathed, under the flowing blood, mercilessly began the reaping.

And on the mountain top, Ji Jue slowly retracted his hand.

Letting the fierce winds howl, yet under the support of mercury limbs, still as a mountain,

Rain splashed, falling onto the heated ring, hissing.

The once-vibrant colors seemed to fade completely, swiftly dimming as if all the filth of the soul was poured out in that wave of frenzy, awaiting another infusion and purification.

This indiscriminate bombardment of wails was even more terrifying than the usual Heart Core's Chosen One.

After all, Heart Cores are human too, even if filled with malice, scheming against society, they wouldn't stuff their own souls with as much potent material as Ji Jue did.

The mutation triggered by Mutated Alchemy, containing the Great Sin Essence of Polluted Spirit Essence, combined with Fluid Alchemy's extraction and the blessing's guidance and enhancement, was like an oversized highly pure dirty bomb, indiscriminately poisoning everything, inducing mutations and madness. Death was a relief, living was a never-ending threat.

If it weren't for Little Ox's timely reaping, how many Mutated Transformations could this wave of wails have catalyzed...

But it didn't matter, Mutated Transformations were fine too.

The narrow-minded blinded by sectarianism and limited views wouldn't bother Ji Jue, who was broad-minded enough to overlook the differences between Superior and Great Evil.

The life of a Mutated Transformation is still a life! How could there be a difference in value?

No, in some respect, they might be even more useful...

His fingers flicked twice, amidst the torrential rain, threads of silvery light appeared, falling, slowly permeating into a thin mist, silently spreading. Under the lock of solid alchemy, the various spiritual essences and pollution dispersed in the air rapidly merged into the mercury vapor, solidifying into gray-black speckles of sand.
