Chapter 127: Chasing, Pulling, and Diverting the Trouble
Immediately after, the moment Zhao Shanhe rushed out, two more monks rushed out of the valley, but compared to Zhao Shanhe, both of them were relatively slower. One of them was seriously injured, with an extra one on his shoulder. Huge hole.
Roar!
Then, only a roar was heard.
Everyone saw a stiff humanoid creature who rushed out quickly. His hands were like sharp knives, thrusting at the monk.
puff!
Blood spilled on the ground, and the man's entire head was pierced by the 'sharp knife'.
With a wave of his arm, the monk was thrown away and covered in blood.
Then, without pausing, it quickly chased the second monk. It only took two or three ups and downs before it caught up with that monk.
The monk roared angrily and suddenly activated the magic weapon in his hand.
Dang~!
A shaking sound fell on it, but it had no effect at all.
The body of the humanoid creature is as hard as a rock, and it is difficult for magic weapons to cause damage.
"Zombie, with red fur... This is a second-grade zombie, a bronze-armored zombie..."
Shen Xinyue's eyes suddenly widened in disbelief.
Zombies, in the world of immortality, are a special kind of existence. They are creatures that are generated by the Yin Qi after death. They are divided into iron armor, bronze armor, silver armor, gold armor... and other levels.
Among them, the armored corpse is at the Qi training level, comparable to a Qi training monk.
The bronze-armored corpse is equivalent to a true practitioner of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Its strength is definitely stronger than that of Qi-training monks.
Therefore, when he saw the bronze-armored corpse, even though he was as confident as Shen Xinyue, he couldn't help but change his face. He immediately reacted and shouted: "Retreat..."
Then he looked at Zhao Shanhe, who was still running towards them, his face turned cold, he suddenly threw out a magic talisman, shouted loudly, and said: "Get out!"
Zhao Shanhe knew that he was very disgusting when he ran this way. If he encountered someone with a bad temper, he would kill him on the spot.
Therefore, he was very aware of the situation and immediately turned around and fled to the other side.
Behind Shen Xinyue, many people turned slightly pale when they saw the scene in front of them. They all turned around and ran away without being reminded.
Among them, the fastest runner was none other than Zhao Gongpeng, who had been chattering endlessly before. He shot several spiritual talismans in succession. Under the power of the spiritual talismans, his speed was so fast that he left many people behind him in the blink of an eye.
Following closely behind were Gong Baixue, Wen Renxiu, and the protectors of the three of them.
The most basic task of the three late-stage Qi-training monks is to protect the safety of the three of them.
Therefore, even though their strength is enough to get rid of the three of them, they are always parallel to them.
But even so, the speed is much faster than others.
Because behind them are many monks in Shuiyun Pavilion, including Qian Xiaoyue, Lu Weier, attendants Xiao Nian, Xiao Fang, and Liu Ruyu.
Among them, Xiao Nian and Xiao Fang are both at the fourth level of Qi training, while Liu Ruyu, like Qian Xiaoyue, is a recently recruited monk who is going to participate in the Shuiyun Immortal Sect's entrance examination, and his strength is only at the third level of Qi training. layer.
Therefore, even though there are shopkeeper Li Qianyun, alchemist Zhang Siyu, spiritual planter Lu Yun and other powerful people above the seventh level of Qi training in Shuiyun Pavilion, there is Shen Xinyue, a monk who has just been promoted and has broken through to the ninth level of Qi training. On the contrary, it was much slower.
But among the group, the slowest ones were the two third-level Qi-training monks, Lu Weier and Liu Ruyu.
Even if they increase their speed to the extreme, the speed of immortal monks is often linked to their strength, so in just a moment, the two of them fell at the end.
Fortunately, at this time, Shen Xinyue also followed up, glanced at the two of them, and without any hesitation, picked up Liu Ruyu with one hand and led her forward quickly.
Facing the bronze-armored corpse, even she thought she was no match. It would be difficult to bring one person with her. If she brought two people with her, her speed would slow down, and in the end, they would all get stuck here.
And Liu Ruyu was the disciple she personally selected to be sent to the Shuiyun Immortal Sect. Between the two, it was anyone's guess who she would choose to save.
Lu Weier, who was on the side at the end, was already a little flustered. At this time, her face was even more pale, and there was a hint of crying in her voice: "Wait for me..."
The bronze-armored corpse was a terrifying existence comparable to a foundation-building cultivator. If she was caught up, she would almost certainly die.
"Sister Wei'er..."
Hearing Lu Weier's cry, Qian Xiaoyue's footsteps stopped.
"Are you crazy?"
Zhou Changwang had been following Qian Xiaoyue, and when he saw this, he quickly grabbed her arm.
Qian Xiaoyue glanced at Zhou Changwang weakly, knowing that this was not the time to be soft-hearted at all, so she had no choice but to grit her teeth and follow.
Compared with Qian Xiaoyue, Zhou Changwang's speed is naturally much faster. The perfect level of light body technique, coupled with the Seven Stars Stepping on the Moon, makes his speed not weaker than those monks in the late stage of Qi training. Even if he holds Qian Xiaoyue with one hand, he will In this mountain forest, it feels like walking on flat ground
"Xiaoyue, wait for me..."
Lu Weier cried.
Behind her, the bronze-armored corpse had already chased after another monk. His hands were like terrifying sharp knives. With just a slight touch, the defensive aura on the monk's body shattered, and then he was bullied. He came forward, hugged him fiercely, and bit him on the neck.
In the blink of an eye, the man's blood and essence was sucked dry, and his whole body shriveled up.
died.
"Roar!"
The bronze-armored corpse roared loudly.
It seemed that his momentum was even stronger than before. Without any pause at all, he immediately stepped forward to catch up.
Fast, fast, fast, too fast...
With just a light jump, he covered a distance of several feet, and then with just a few jumps, he caught up with Zhao Shanhe again.
"Damn it!"
Zhao Shanhe's face changed drastically, and before the zombie was about to pounce on him, he suddenly threw out a black hoof, and the moment the hoof landed on the zombie, it suddenly exploded.
Zizizizizi...
Instantly, a large amount of Yin Qi emanated from the zombie's body, and the whole body paused.
Taking advantage of the zombie's pause, Zhao Shanhe quickly turned around again and ran quickly in the direction of Zhou Changwang and others.
"Help, help..."
He kept shouting, at a very fast speed.
Because he knew that the special donkey hoof could not stop the zombie for long.
Sure enough, after a few breaths, he heard a roar, and the zombie rushed over again. After a few jumps, he rushed to him again. He did the same and threw out a hoof again.
Taking this opportunity, he quickly caught up, and then he actually passed Lu Weiler and pulled her behind him.
Lu Weier, who was already panicking, turned pale in an instant, and her whole body softened, and she fell down all of a sudden.
"No..."
She screamed in despair.
Sure enough, the zombie rushed over in the blink of an eye.
However, at this moment, a flying sword suddenly appeared.
Bang!
It hit the zombie hard.
At the critical moment, it was Fang Shitong who took action.
Although the flying sword did not have any effect on the zombie as he expected, this attack seemed to have successfully attracted its attention.
It ignored Lu Weier and passed her directly, chasing them quickly.
After three more ups and downs, it caught up with Zhao Shanhe, and a few feet in front of him was Fang Shitong.
Zhao Shanhe's face turned pale, and he threw a donkey hoof again, and then caught up with Fang Shitong again.
It must be said that his speed was extremely fast. Although they both belonged to the sixth level of Qi training, his speed was obviously faster than Fang Shitong.
Fang Shitong's face changed, and he became anxious. A magic talisman suddenly appeared in his hand and hit Zhao Shanhe directly. But Zhao Shanhe was not a pushover. He flipped his hand and took out five nail-like magic tools and threw them out quickly.
Corpse-suppressing Ding!
The five nails did not fall on Fang Shitong at all, and they were all sunk into the ground. But when Fang Shitong took a step, he felt as if there was an invisible aura covering his body, trapping him in place.
Although the Corpse-suppressing Ding can suppress dead bodies and zombies, the human body is also restricted by it and can be suppressed temporarily.
As he froze, the zombies behind him immediately caught up.
Three feet, two feet, one foot...
Then.
Leaped over.
He didn't even attack him, but rushed over directly.
Fang Shitong, who was originally desperate, immediately showed a hint of surprise on his face.
"Huh?"
Zhou Changwang had been paying attention to the situation behind him, and he naturally saw all the changes in this scene.
Obviously, its main target has been Zhao Shanhe from the beginning to the end.
But think about it, the other party stayed in his own cemetery, and they dug up his tomb without saying anything to "wake him up", not only that, but also stole his things and treasures.
No matter who it is, they will be angry and want to kill him as soon as possible.
That's why they only targeted these three tomb robbers instead of others.
Of course, Zhou Changwang didn't think that the zombie would stop after killing Zhao Shanhe and others.
Zombies are bloodthirsty and devour souls. How could they let them go if they met them?
Once the three tomb robbers died, it was estimated that they would be the next target.
Therefore, his speed did not change, and he kept holding Qian Xiaoyue and ran all the way.
Others could see this. Zhao Shanhe had been in the tomb and dealing with zombies for many years, so of course he knew this, and he couldn't help feeling bitter.
Although he knew that this was a foundation-building tomb, he didn't know that this tomb would breed a demon corpse comparable to the foundation-building level so quickly.
Although, this demon corpse is not a real copper-armored corpse. Although its head is red, most of its lower body is still black, which is the appearance of an iron-armored corpse. In their industry, this is called a "pseudo-copper corpse". It is in a stage of evolving from an iron-armored corpse to a copper-armored corpse.
Although it is worse than a cultivator of the ninth level of Qi training, it is far inferior to a true foundation-building cultivator, and is in between the two.
But even so, it is definitely not something he can handle.
Thinking of this, he panicked.
He didn't have many donkey hooves in his hand. If the donkey hooves were empty later, he would be helpless.
"Fellow Daoist Zhou, Fellow Daoist Zhou, help me."
Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he finally saw clearly that there was an acquaintance in front of him. He shouted hurriedly and increased his speed to the extreme.
He also passed many figures one by one.
His speed was indeed very fast. Except for the cultivator of the seventh level of Qi training, almost no one could catch up with him.
Fortunately, many people knew that the zombies were not targeting them, so even if they were caught up, they were not so panicked, but dispersed in other directions.
Zhou Changwang's face turned cold, and he said angrily: "I don't know you well."
But his speed did not slow down at all.
But after all, he was holding Qian Xiaoyue's hand, and in terms of absolute speed, he was not as fast as Zhao Shanhe. The distance between the two was getting closer and closer.
Of course, no matter who it was, the speed could not be faster than that zombie.
Fortunately, its target is always Zhao Shanhe, and almost everyone else will survive safely as long as they are not on its path.
Some people saw this and simply ran away. After the zombies passed by, they quickly ran in the opposite direction.
They were also very smart, knowing that if the zombie dealt with Zhao Shanhe, he might not be able to let them go, so they naturally hid as far away as possible.
Even Shen Xinyue quietly deviated from the direction and fell behind the zombies unknowingly.
"Fellow Daoist Zhou, for the sake of us being neighbors, please save my life. I am willing to share the treasure this time with you."
Zhao Shanhe shouted repeatedly, sensing that the zombie was approaching again, and quickly threw out a piece of donkey's hoof.
"Roar!"
The zombie roared, but the donkey's hoof was a secret treasure made by Captain Mo Jin, and it had a great restraint effect on the zombie. Even if the zombie was about to break through and reach the bronze armored corpse level, it would still be affected by the hoof.
"Save you? What can I do to save you?
Get out of here, or don't blame me for being rude. "
Zhou Changwang's face was cold. He felt that the zombie was approaching quickly again, and he couldn't help but feel a little frightened in his heart.
Although he thought he had some strength, he kept a respectful distance from such existences and did not dare to act rashly.
"Fellow Daoist Zhou, please let me go."
Qian Xiaoyue on the side suddenly said.
Zhou Changwang glanced at the other party, but did not speak or let go.
Although the target of the zombie was Zhao Shanhe and he had not attacked other monks before, the zombie was too close now. He was afraid that if he let go, the zombie would land on Qian Xiaoyue. She couldn't stop it. live.
"Fellow Daoist Zhou, do you know what I got from the tomb this time?
The third grade spiritual plant, Diyin Ganoderma.
This is one of the foundation-building spiritual objects.
If you are willing to help me, this Earth Yin Ganoderma lucidum will be half of yours. "
Zhao Shanhe lowered his voice again and said, of course, his speed was not much slower.
Qian Xiaoyue on the side suddenly widened her eyes when she heard about the foundation-building spirit, but she knew the terror of this zombie, so she quickly looked at Zhou Changwang nervously.
“You think so highly of me that there’s nothing I can do about it.
Although the foundation-building spiritual object is good, it is not mine. After all, it is not mine. "
Zhou Changwang was not tempted.
Fighting a bronze-armored corpse for a foundation-building spiritual object?
Is he crazy?
No matter how good this treasure is, you still need life to spend it.
"Of course I know this is very difficult, but if fellow Taoists can get them to help together, maybe it's not impossible to solve this 'fake copper corpse'..."
"Fake copper corpse?"
Zhou Changwang was startled.
"It is actually just an armored corpse. It belongs to the first-level high-level level. It is just the top of the first-level high-level. Its strength is equivalent to the ninth level of Qi training in the Qi training period. In other words, it is said that the foundation building failed, but it did not fall. As a result, he has reached the tenth level of Qi training and the eleventh level of Qi training.
It's far worse than a real bronze armored corpse comparable to the foundation building level.
As long as fellow Taoists can unite with other monks above the seventh level of Qi training, they can take action together.
We definitely have a good chance of killing it. "
Although Zhao Shanhe was anxious, he quickly explained.
"I see.
However, fellow Daoist Zhao, do you think that I, a young monk at the fourth level of Qi training, can control those powerful people in the later stages of Qi training? "
Zhou Changwang said with a helpless tone.
And while speaking, he also deliberately changed directions to get rid of the other party.
However, Zhao Shanhe was like a dog-skin plaster. As Zhou Changwang ran in that direction, he also ran in this direction, so that the zombie kept following behind them and could not get rid of it.
If he hadn't thrown donkey hooves from time to time to hinder them, the two of them would have been caught up long ago.
"I know that Fellow Daoist Zhou is not a weakling. Even the Insect King Xue Tong is not your opponent. I guess your strength has long been no weaker than that of a monk in the late stage of Qi training.
How about saving my life and making the entire foundation-building spiritual object yours? "
Zhao Shanhe said quickly and threw out a hoof again. Suddenly his voice was a little distorted, "Please, I don't have enough donkey hooves on me. I only have two left."
Two donkey hooves can only delay the zombie's ten breaths at most.
Ten breaths is simply not enough.
"I can't save you! If you come here again, don't blame me for being rude!"
Zhou Changwang was also anxious. The perfect level of light body technique, coupled with the Seven Stars Stepping on the Moon, and occasionally a flying technique, allowed his speed to reach an extremely high level. Compared with the seventh-level Qi-training monks, he was steadily beating One step ahead.
However, because he was holding Qian Xiaoyue in one hand, his speed was greatly affected, reducing it by at least 30%, so that even Zhao Shanhe was faster than him.
"Fellow Daoist Zhou, we are neighbors after all... Do you have the heart to just watch me being chased by zombies and not save me?"
Hearing this, Zhao Shanhe's expression changed and he begged.
What responded to him was a gold finger.
Of course, it didn't fall directly on him, but fell a foot in front of him.
This was a warning. If he continued to pester, he believed that Zhou Changwang's attack would definitely fall on him.
Seeing this, he panicked completely.
Pulling in Zhou Changwang, he still has a chance of survival. After all, he knows that Zhou Changwang is extremely powerful, but if he is the only one left...
Then a trace of evil flashed in his eyes, and he said angrily, "Since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust."
Then he flipped his hand and threw out five nails.
Corpse Suppression Ding!
This kind of Corpse Suppression Ding is a common material in the tomb. After they are "carefully" refined, it can evolve and become a Corpse Suppression Ding magic weapon.
Zhao Shanhe, who often enters the tomb for the first time, doesn't have much else, but he has as many Corpse Suppression Ding as he wants.
Although this Corpse Suppression Ding is not a big threat to cultivators, and at most it can have an unexpected effect, it is indeed very effective at a critical moment.
At this time, he threw out the Corpse Suppression Ding, and it immediately fell on Zhou Changwang's body.
Five nails formed a formation, and Zhou Changwang's body, which was originally rushing forward, immediately sank, as if it was under heavy pressure, and his speed was greatly reduced.
Taking this opportunity, Zhao Shanhe finally caught up.
"Fellow Daoist Zhou, don't blame me."
As he said, he suddenly took out a jade box and threw it directly in the direction of Zhou Changwang, but he himself quickly fled to a distance.
"Looking for death!"
Zhou Changwang's eyes were cold, and he flicked his fingers.
Silently, a golden light flashed and rushed to Zhao Shanhe.
Gengjin Finger!
And it was a perfect level Gengjin Finger.
Zhou Changwang released it with anger, so its power was naturally extraordinary.
Bang!
The defensive aura on Zhao Shanhe's body shattered instantly, and then the Gengjin golden light continued to rush to him quickly.
"So strong?"
Zhao Shanhe's eyelids twitched. Even though he had been prepared for Zhou Changwang's counterattack, he had not expected the opponent's attack to be so fast and so powerful.
The spiritual power in his body surged frantically, and then a mirror immediately appeared in front of him. The mirror had a smooth surface and was red and yellow. It was a medium-grade defensive magic weapon. It not only had strong defense, but also had a certain rebound damage effect. It was one of the magic weapons he valued the most.
Zhou Changwang's Gengjin Finger fell on the mirror, like a crushing blow, quickly dispersing the aura, piercing the mirror, and drilling out from the back.
Zhao Shanhe instinctively moved his lower body away, and then he felt his left waist suddenly exploded, and blood and flesh were scattered all over the ground.
"Ah..."
He screamed, and was extremely shocked.
He guessed that Zhou Changwang was very strong. After all, he was able to kill the insect king Xue Tong when he came to the door. He must have extraordinary means, far better than the average sixth-level Qi training cultivator.
But he never thought that the opponent would be so strong?
One attack!
It was just a spell attack, and it was like a bamboo breaking, breaking his defensive aura, piercing his defensive magic weapon, and smashing his waist... If he hadn't seen the opportunity quickly, wouldn't this attack have killed him?
He couldn't care about much anymore, and hurriedly took out a talisman from the storage bag solemnly, and activated it without thinking.
In an instant, a ray of aura wrapped him up, and then his body sank and sank directly into the soil.
Second-grade primary talisman, underground escape talisman!
And just as his body sank into the soil, another golden light of Gengjin Finger shot out, but it was a step slower, allowing him to dodge it.
Puff!
Only a bottomless hole appeared on the ground.
Soon after, Zhao Shanhe emerged from the ground ten feet away. He didn't dare to stay at all, and he quickly fled to the distance.
At this moment, Zhou Changwang didn't care about Zhao Shanhe.
After breaking free from the corpse-suppressing order, his eyes immediately fell on the box thrown by the other party.
At this time, the box had been opened due to the impact of the force, and a Ganoderma lucidum that was completely black, but like a vine, circling three layers appeared in front of him.
"This is, Diyin Ganoderma lucidum, is it a third-grade Diyin Ganoderma lucidum?"
Zhou Changwang was stunned at first, and then quickly reacted. This was the third-grade Diyin Ganoderma lucidum, which is one of the legendary foundation-building spiritual objects.
Zhao Shanhe threw out this foundation-building spiritual object at this time, and the meaning was very clear. It was to divert the trouble to him and transfer the danger to him.
At this time, seeing this box of third-grade earth-yin Ganoderma lucidum, Zhou Changwang finally understood why this zombie did not chase others, but wanted to track Zhao Shanhe wholeheartedly.
Not only did he destroy its nest and enter its tomb to steal, but it was also because of this third-grade spiritual plant, earth-yin Ganoderma lucidum.
This zombie was just about to be promoted, from the iron-armored corpse to the bronze-armored corpse.
But the bronze-armored corpse is at the foundation-building level. It is extremely difficult for ordinary cultivators to be promoted. They need the assistance of foundation-building pills to have a certain possibility.
The probability of failure is also very high.
The same is true for zombie promotion.
To be promoted, you also need help.
And it is obvious that this third-grade earth-yin Ganoderma lucidum is the helper in its eyes, and it is the best auxiliary treasure for it to be promoted to the bronze-armored corpse.
This treasure was dug up by Zhao Shanhe, so it was naturally extremely angry, and tried its best to catch up with him and tear him to pieces...
