Chapter 1850: Chapter 1842: Wonderful
"Hold tight, don’t let go!"
He Zhongwen was startled by the scream of the zombies.
But he quickly reacted and coldly shouted to the others.
Zhang Fu, Cao Ruohua, and the others shivered all over, gripping their longswords tightly.
Even someone as battle-hardened as the sixth-level superpower user Zhang Fu, and worldly-wise sect disciple Cao Ruohua, was facing zombies for the first time!
In the past.
Zombies rarely appeared. freewёbnoνel.com
After all.
The conditions required for their appearance were extremely stringent.
Before them, these zombies weren’t very strong, but they looked truly disgusting and frightening.
They opened their mouths and screamed in unison; between their sinister teeth emanated a stench, and their cold aura surged like a tide.
Zhou He, Zhang Gaoshuang, and the others watching from the side were horrified.
Even Bu Xuan couldn’t help but shrink behind Lin Tian.
But soon.
Cao Ruohua noticed something was amiss.
As she grasped the sword hilt, it seemed her aura was being slowly extracted.
"Master He, these zombies are absorbing our cultivation and Yang Qi, what’s going on?"
Cao Ruohua suddenly raised her head, looking at He Zhongwen, demanding an explanation.
"This is a normal backlash! These zombies want to awaken the Zombie King, they must absorb energy!"
He Zhongwen explained with a somber expression.
Is that the case?
Cao Ruohua’s heart was doubtful.
But she didn’t ask further.
However.
Lin Tian, who stood nearby, began to show a cold smile.
"To lure out the Thousand-year-old Zombie King? He Zhongwen clearly wants the Zombie King to absorb these people’s Yang Qi to awaken it!"
Lin Tian squinted his eyes, contemplating the situation: "But why absorb Yang Qi?"
He couldn’t understand it.
But soon.
The center of the chaotic graveyard at the ancient battlefield.
Gradually emanated vibrations akin to an earthquake.
The ground started to shake slightly, emitting intermittent roars.
Crash~
The ground at the center of the chaotic graveyard suddenly cracked.
A sharp claw emanating with green light emerged from the earth.
The claw was like a human hand, yet not quite, glowing green and covered with green fur.
At least four or five times larger than the average human hand.
It burrowed up from the ground.
Bang.
It grasped a stone.
Crushing the stone to bits.
"The Zombie King! Awakened awakened..."
He Zhongwen’s eyes lit up, showing joy and anticipation.
Others seemed like Lin Rian, instinctively retreating a few steps.
As the crack in the earth widened, finally, two massive, pillar-like arms emerged.
Then, a head with green fur appeared. Like a water barrel.
This head looked even more sinister.
The skin on its face was uneven, with green fluid subtly seeping through.
At the corners of its mouth, there were two tusks, extremely menacing.
Its eyes gleamed green, intimidating beyond measure.
Thousand-year-old Zombie King!
"Roar~"
The Zombie King emitted a sharp, angry roar, causing the surrounding cold winds to whirl like waves.
Then.
Its giant palm slammed the ground, pulling its entire body from the earth.
With a thunderous crash.
The enormous figure like a small mountain seemed to slam onto the ground.
Its feet hit the ground, forming two half-foot-deep pits.
"It’s the Zombie King! Kill!"
Cao Ruohua raised her brows, her beautiful eyes filled with killing intent, shouted sharply, and charged with her sword.
Others, like Tan Pucheng, quickly joined the fray.
Soon, a group of five formed a bizarre attack formation, beginning their assault on the Zombie King.
Yan Zishan also joined the battle.
Though the Zombie King wasn’t a cultivator, it possessed terrifying strength, and even with several people attacking together, it was still somewhat challenging.
However, Zhang Fu withdrew quickly, pulling Zhang Gaoshuang and others to retreat some distance.
Even He Zhongwen didn’t take action.
He knelt before the zombie used for rituals, carving crooked symbols into its body with his sword.
Shortly.
Spurt~
He Zhongwen spit out a mouthful of fresh blood, landing directly on the zombie.
With a buzz, the zombie shimmered with green light all over.
"It’s done!"
He Zhongwen rejoiced, standing up, retreating a distance.
Suddenly, that zombie’s eyes glowed green, mechanically rising.
Not only that one, but the other four zombies also glowed green, standing up one after another.
They began to gnash their teeth and claws, charging at Cao Ruohua and others.
At this moment.
Cao Ruohua and others were locked in a fierce battle with the Zombie King.
As the five zombies awakened, the Zombie King suddenly roared, shaking several people away.
"Kill..."
Suddenly, the Zombie King emitted a hoarse voice brimming with murderous intent.
The other five zombies swiftly formed an attack formation, not only encircling Cao Ruohua and others, but even Zhou He and the rest were surrounded.
Including Yan Zishan.
Only Zhang Fu, Zhang Gaoshuang, and He Zhongwen retreated outside.
"Mr. Zhang, aren’t you going to take action?"
Watching the Zombie King join forces with the five zombies, exponentially increasing its power, Cao Ruohua grew anxious, shouting at Zhang Fu.
Just as she finished speaking, the Zombie King transformed into a cannonball, charging at them.
Its speed was several times faster than before.
"Scatter!"
Cao Ruohua urgently shouted.
While she could evade, the others like Tan Pucheng were much weaker in cultivation.
One of the disciples lagged by a step.
The Zombie King swiped at him with a claw, directly exploding his head, immediately killing him on the spot.
"Damn it!"
Cao Ruohua’s expression drastically changed, looking back only to find Zhang Fu still not taking action, she shouted again: "Mr. Zhang, what do you mean?"
However.
Zhang Fu wore a cold smile without responding.
Instead, He Zhongwen erupted with a roar, his late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivation suddenly surged out, exuding a cold aura.
"You... you’re a cultivator?" freewёbnoνel.com
Cao Ruohua’s expression changed abruptly, shouting in shock.
"Mr. Zhang, what does this mean?"
At this moment, Yan Zishan, who was being surrounded, also glared over and shouted at Zhang Fu.
At the same time.
He leapt outward, attempting to escape the encirclement of the Zombie King and others.
"Since you’re inside, don’t come out anymore!"
But at that moment, He Zhongwen blocked Yan Zishan’s way, with a thud, kicked him back.
His gaze then fell on Cao Ruohua, filled with chilling coldness: "Isn’t there anyone left at Fuxiang Island? Damn, just you few came! But luckily, the Zombie King awakened, otherwise, if punished by Elder Mou Mountain, we wouldn’t be able to endure!"
This statement caused a lot of people to be stunned.
Cao Ruohua was dazed too but quickly reacted, shouting: "Elder Mou Mountain! Golden Core cultivator! He’s the notorious demon from the Soul Burying Platform deep in Soul Sleeping Mountain! You... you’re from the Soul Burying Platform?"
"Zhang Fu, you are audacious, actually colluding with such people!"
Now Cao Ruohua understood what was happening, turning to Zhang Fu and rebuking sternly.
Yet Zhang Fu only coldly smiled in response: "Originally, I wanted you to bring more people, to be food for the Zombie King, but damn it, just you few, really unfortunate!"
"Hahahaha... It’s enough, enough!"
Suddenly, a series of elderly shouts came from the other side of the mountains, "Now this little guy can awaken, faster than I expected! Fantastic! Fantastic!"
