Volume 4: The Game of the Gods Chapter 16: Fighting the Zombie Alone
Although they were walking through the endless rain of arrows, the four of them did not stop for a moment. The valley was long and narrow, deep, and there was no end in sight. But the further they walked, the more they felt something was wrong!
They didn't know how long they had been galloping, but the rain of arrows was finally left behind. However, before everyone could breathe a sigh of relief, Zeze, who was leading the charge, suddenly stopped, catching Peng Lili off guard. He almost pounced on it, but heard Zeze exclaim, "What was that!"
Everyone then noticed that the road leading to the front of the valley was blocked by a group of people so dense that they could not be seen at a glance. No, they could not be called people at all!
Although they were similar in size to humans, their faces were hideous and their hollow eyes were chilling. At this moment, they were crooked and densely packed in the way out of the valley. Many parts of their bodies were covered with white bones, and their abdominal cavities were almost empty, looking like the dead had resurrected. Moreover, the strong stench of corpses made it almost impossible for everyone to open their eyes!
At this time, they kept waving their arms and making terrifying growls. The nails that showed through the white bones were probably at least three inches long, which made people feel scared!
Qingluan turned around and grabbed Wei Xingying's sleeve, pointing at her throat. Wei Xingying understood and hooked her fingertips. A silver light flew out of Qingluan's body. Qingluan coughed twice before saying in a hoarse voice, "This is a zombie!"
"Zombie?" Ping Lili repeated the word subconsciously, and took a few breaths of cold air in his heart. Not to mention looking at the appearance, just hearing the word didn't mean it was a good thing!
"Could this be the living dead created by the Kongming tribe?" Wei Xingying's voice was filled with chilling coldness. Only then did Ping Lili understand that the living dead they had heard of before was this thing. Oh my God, this is really a ghost!
When the swarm of zombies saw these four living people, they were like being injected with chicken blood. They roared and rushed over together, as if they wanted to tear these sudden comers into pieces!
Ze Ze, who was at the front, was like a long-lasting energizer. He just shouted loudly, and waved his palms in the air. A streak of lightning broke through the air. There were continuous muffled "boom boom boom" sounds, and those zombies who were at the front were all knocked away for a long distance, smashed to pieces!
And Ping Lili was not willing to be outdone. She held a short black iron blade in her hand and flew into the air like a butterfly from the underworld. Wherever the dark golden blade went, corpses were everywhere. The zombies were chopped into pieces before they could get close to her!
However, something unexpected happened. Although Ze Ze and Peng Lili had just attacked suddenly and seemed to have cut a bloody path in front of them, a gust of cold wind blew over, and the body parts and debris scattered on the ground slowly gathered together and returned to their previous appearance!
"These zombies are immortal! Don't waste your energy!" The white-clothed woman Qingluan suddenly leaped to the front and stopped Yinglili and Zeze from attacking again. She quickly formed seals with her hands and swung out her long sleeves. A white cyclone roared out like a vicious beast, drawing an icy barrier in front of everyone!
When the zombies that rushed forward touched the ice-like barrier, their bodies first became stiff, and in the blink of an eye their bodies turned into ice crystals and shattered to the ground!
However, just like before, within , the debris slowly gathered together again, forming new zombies, which continued to attack the barrier frantically as before!
But seeing Qing Luan interlacing her fingers, forming seals to maintain the power of the ice crystal barrier, she quickly explained to everyone: "These zombies are puppets controlled by corpse spirits. If they can't be killed, it will only waste spiritual power. Only by killing the corpse spirits hiding in the dark can we completely eliminate them!"
"But..." Qingluan's words seemed a little hesitant.
"But what?" Ping Lili asked hurriedly. It was not a solution to continue to be in a stalemate like this. Although the zombies seemed unable to get close to them for the time being, who knew when the old monster behind them would catch up. Once they were surrounded, the four of them would be unable to escape!
"That corpse spirit wouldn't mingle with the zombies. It usually hides in a hidden place and secretly controls the zombies. And that corpse spirit's hiding ability is very good. I tried several times just now but couldn't catch his whereabouts..."
"Corpse spirit, is it the one with green eyes hiding in the mountains and forests?" When Ping Lili said this, the other three looked at her in surprise. They saw that she was pinching the Living Spirit Seal with her left hand, and the short black iron blade in her right hand was pointing to a certain direction of the mountains and forests. The solemn expression on her face did not seem like she was joking!
"Can you see him?" Qingluan's voice unconsciously became sharp, as if she was a little unconvinced.
Ping Lili nodded. At this time, she was using the Life-Making Secret more easily. She didn't expect that it would come in handy at this moment.
But before he could feel proud, he heard Qing Luan say, "But this zombie is very cunning and very fast. Even if we find his hiding place, he will have already run away by the time we break through the encirclement of these zombies!"
Ping Lili closed his eyes slightly, and then his golden brown pupils showed his determination: "Then you will clear the way for me. Gather everyone's strength and clear a path for me in an instant. I will go and kill the corpse! Even if he hides, I can find him!"
"Ah? But..." Qingluan seemed to want to say something else, but was interrupted by Wei Xingying: "Do as she says!"
Seeing the zombies getting more and more, getting closer and closer, surrounding the four people, suddenly, there was a loud bang in the dense group of zombies, and a streak of invincible lightning accompanied by countless light arrows and silver rays broke through the countless zombies. At that moment, I saw Ping Lili soaring into the air, and the whole person flew out like a startled wild goose!
The corpse spirit was lurking in the depths of the forest not far away. When he was alive, he was also a person with extremely high spiritual power. Although he was turned into a living dead after his death, he was much more advanced than those ordinary zombies. At least he retained the cunning and judgment of being a human being.
In fact, under normal circumstances, all he had to do was to control the zombies with his own spiritual power, use the sea of corpses tactics to drag the humans trapped in the encirclement to exhaustion, and then kill them. However, today, he was obviously not so lucky!
In an instant, the corpse seemed to feel something strange in the air around it. With a loud bang not far away, Ping Lili turned into a straight line and rushed out of the encirclement of the zombies. Before the corpse could make any reaction, it was stabbed hard in the left chest by the short black iron blade with a golden glow in Ping Lili's hand!
If an ordinary person was hit by this, he would not only die, but also be half dead! You have to know that this black iron short blade is infused with the power of "Dark Domain Golden Shadow", which is an indestructible destructive force! It's a pity that this corpse spirit is not an ordinary thing!
The stabbed left chest suddenly spurted out countless green rotten fluids with a strong corpse stench, almost spraying all over Peng Lili! Fortunately, Peng Lili reacted quickly and jumped into the air to avoid it. The rotten fluids fell to the ground, and the ground that was originally lush and covered with weeds suddenly became charred!
Moreover, the left chest of the corpse spirit that had just been stabbed recovered in the next moment! You couldn't even see the wound! This corpse spirit was originally a rotten corpse, how could it be injured by these methods used against humans!
The corpse's subconscious action was to run away! Because he could feel that this woman was emitting an extremely strange spiritual power. No, there was more than one, including the short blade in her hand, which also emitted a power that frightened him from the bottom of his heart!
Although he would not be hurt by ordinary means, it did not mean that he would not be destroyed! Those creatures that had experienced death had a deep fear of falling into darkness again!
He flashed and suddenly disappeared in the forest. Just as Qingluan had expected, this corpse spirit ran very fast. But how could Ping Lili let him? !
I saw that Gong Lili was pinching the Life Secret with his left hand, half-squinting his eyes, and chasing in one direction. Suddenly, he seemed to catch something, and the short black iron blade in his hand broke through the air without hesitation, drawing a wonderful golden arc. This time, a stream of emerald green putrid fluid spurted out, and the corpse's originally hidden figure was immediately betrayed by the putrid fluid flowing all the way!
Moreover, the wound this time did not heal as quickly as before, because when Ping Lili took action just now, he used a little trick and injected the talisman technique along with spiritual power into the black iron short blade, instantly breaking the corpse spirit's body protection!
At this time, the corpse was finally angered by the constant pressure from Ying Lili! He simply gave up on escaping and planned to fight Ying Lili to the death!
But he roared, and countless corrupt fluids gushed out of his mouth continuously! The corrupt fluids came all over the sky, like a torrential rain from the sky, but this rain was deadly! Peng Lili had just seen the power of the corrupt fluids, and subconsciously stepped back a few steps!
However, she did not expect that her initial retreat would make the corpse spirit even more proud. The putrid fluid gushed out of his mouth endlessly, like a volcanic eruption! For Yan Lili, although it was not difficult to dodge, she was helpless at this moment when she saw the putrid fluid gushing out of the corpse spirit's mouth, because she could not get close to him at all!
She secretly cried out that this would only be disadvantageous to her. The corpse spirit seemed to have infinite spiritual power and was tireless. If she continued to be forced back by him like this, she would be the only one exhausted in the end. She would not get any benefit at all!
She forced herself to calm down. She had to think of a quick solution! Suddenly, she saw something! An idea flashed in her mind!
There is a way!
