Chapter 506 Corpse Soldiers

"The consciousness of the Zhang family ancestor is so strong. If he "eats" it and then refines it, he should be able to overcome the bottleneck and reach the thirteen-line consciousness..."

Mo Hua muttered to himself.

Thirteen-line consciousness...

For cultivators in the early stage of foundation building, the limit of consciousness is thirteen lines.

Once the consciousness has thirteen lines, it is only one step away from the spiritual consciousness foundation building requirement mentioned by the master...

Mo Hua was looking forward to it.

Then he hesitated again.

"Eat it now?"

The residual consciousness of the Zhang family ancestor's soul is too strong. If he eats it forcefully, he will probably feel very full and it will take a long time to "digest"...

And what is the situation outside now, Mo Hua is still unclear.

I did pass on the news of the corpse mine.

But in Nanyue City, there is no force that can compete with the Lu family.

Now Zhang Quan is dead, Lu Chengyun is the only one in charge of the Corpse King. He is running the Ten Thousand Corpse Resurrection Formation, refining corpses and controlling them at the same time. If his power continues to grow, no one in the second-grade state can stop him...

"It's a bit troublesome..."

Mo Hua thought about it and decided to refine the Zhang family ancestor first.

The meat in your mouth must be eaten as soon as possible.

After "eating" the Zhang family ancestor, your strength will be stronger, and even if something unexpected happens, you will be more confident.

And the Zhang family ancestor has good means.

Although he was killed by himself and turned into smoke, there is no guarantee that he will not have some means to revive and restore his mind.

This kind of old villain is very insidious.

You must act prudently, and you must cut the grass and root it out, and eliminate all hidden dangers!

Eat it dry and wipe it out, leaving no room for it!

Mo Hua immediately took action, and transformed his mind into a formation, preparing to refine the bronze corpse of the Zhang family ancestor.

Just in case, he first locked the green smoke that Zhang's ancestor had transformed into with the golden lock array, and then manifested the molten fire array, slowly roasting it with bright red flames.

After roasting for a while, Mo Hua suddenly remembered.

The Zhang family not only has the ancestor, but also those iron corpse elders.

Of the eleven iron corpses, six are now dying, with only shadows left.

Of the remaining five iron corpses, four were also destroyed by Zhang's ancestor in the final war of attrition. The remaining one was the great elder of the Zhang family, but he was also dying...

Mo Hua felt fortunate.

Zhang's ancestor had a strong mind and many means.

Fortunately, he was timid...

No, he was steady!

He used these iron corpses to force out Zhang's ancestor's tricks, consumed Zhang's ancestor's strength, and endured the beating of Zhang's ancestor...

Then he sneaked an attack on this old zombie.

Finally, he grinded it to death.

Otherwise, it's hard to say who will win...

Control the iron corpses, turn them into your own use, use their spears to attack their shields.

"The Lingshu formation is really useful!"

Mo Hua was amazed.

The iron corpses can't be wasted...

Mo Hua gathered these iron corpses together, and threw them into the molten fire formation together with the Zhang family ancestor.

The Zhang family, from top to bottom, from disciples to ancestors, including all the ancestors of the past generations, were stewed in Mo Hua's pot...

Until the green smoke "stewed" into white smoke, Mo Hua took a breath, and then slowly refined it...

This time took a long time.

From Mo Hua defeating and controlling Zhang Quan and the two elders "Song" and "Si", to setting an ambush and fishing, hunting other iron corpse elders of the Zhang family, to controlling the iron corpses, hunting the Zhang family ancestor, and successfully suppressing and killing him...

Five or six days have passed.

Mo Hua hid in the closed small white coffin and knew nothing.

Meanwhile, outside, a war had already broken out...

The foundation-building monks fought with the iron corpses, destroying the mountains and splitting the earth.

The mines were destroyed by magic and strength, the rocks were shattered, and the slopes were potholes.

Below the foundation-building, there were the Taoist soldiers who formed a long formation and fought against the zombies.

The Taoist soldiers had strict military formations, followed orders, and killed decisively. The zombies were everywhere, hideous and ugly, and fearless of death.

The two fought each other, magnificent and tragic.

The territory of Nanyue City was full of zombies, and thousands of zombies surrounded the city.

The gates of Nanyue City were closed, and the mine cultivators gathered at the city wall to resist the zombies entering the city, as well as those monks who were bitten by the zombies and iron corpses, and the corpse poison attacked their hearts and became zombies.

The city was covered with dark clouds, and there was a murderous atmosphere.

Everyone was uneasy, not knowing whether tomorrow would be sunny or rainy.

If the Dao Court wins in the future, all forces can suppress the corpse mines and eliminate the zombies, and everything will be fine.

If the Dao Court loses, the surging corpse tide will instantly engulf Nanyue City.

At that time, all the monks in the city will become food for zombies.

Some families and sect monks in the city are unwilling to live and die with the city, so they secretly escaped, but most of them were intercepted by scattered zombies on the way.

In the battle, once someone is injured and bleeds, the smell of blood will spread.

Soon, a large number of zombies will come to smell the blood.

It may even attract iron corpses.

Once the iron corpse appears, basically no fleeing monks can survive.

In the zombies all over the mountains.

Even foundation-building monks may die in the hands of numerous first-grade zombies.

In the melee a few days ago, a leader of the foundation-building Taoist soldiers was injured by the iron corpse, separated from the Taoist soldiers, and was annihilated by the tide of zombies.

No matter how many zombies he killed, more zombies would rush over him, just like a drowning man, swallowed by the zombie tide. No matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't get to the shore in the end, and was torn to death by the zombies...

Yang Jishan felt like a knife was cutting his heart.

These Taoist soldiers were his brothers who had shared life and death with him, but he didn't expect that they would die tragically in front of him in this way.

But he was powerless.

There were too many zombies, and they were too strong.

Yang Jishan never expected that despite such thorough preparations, he still suffered such a big loss.

Originally, everything was going well...

Three days ago, they took action at the hour of Mao and attacked the Lu family with thunderous means.

The Lu family was suppressed.

Although some elders and disciples fought hard, escaped from the city and joined Lu Chengyun.

But most of the Lu family members were still afraid of the Dao Court and did not dare to resist.

The Lu family elders were sealed, and the Lu family disciples were also placed under house arrest. A formation was set up at the door, and they were not allowed to go out, waiting for the matter to be dealt with later.

Later, when the zombies surrounded the city, some Lu family disciples had a different mind and wanted to secretly open the city gate and let the zombies in, so that they could join Lu Chengyun.

But when the zombies entered the city, they did not recognize their relatives, and the first to eat were the Lu family members who opened the door.

Later, the Taoist soldiers and mining cultivators, together with the local Nanyue Sect cultivators, paid a lot of price to resist the zombies and re-seal the gate.

Yang Jishan was furious. He picked out several Lu family disciples and elders who were causing trouble and killed them all in front of the Lu family cultivators. This shocked everyone.

The Lu family was much more obedient after that.

The problem was the corpse mine...

The battle of the corpse mine was much more difficult than they imagined.

At that time, they split their troops into two groups, one to suppress the Lu family and the other to destroy the corpse mine.

The intelligence was fine, the formation diagram was fine, and knowing the formation layout, it was also easy to break the formation.

More than 20 of them, together with the Taoist soldiers, attacked together, smashed the stone wall near the gate of the corpse mine, broke the formation pattern, and broke the rocks, causing the natural giant stone gate to tilt and dislocate, revealing a gap.

The two iron corpses at the door were powerful, but they were obviously no match for everyone.

After that, they pushed all the way to the door of the stone hall.

Yang Jishan found that the corpse cultivators were ready, and they were obviously well prepared.

Not only that, in the dark mine, corpse gas filled the air, and dense red dots lit up one by one.

These are the bloodthirsty eyes of zombies.

This was also expected by Yang Jishan.

Although it was a sneak attack, a head-on battle was inevitable.

Yang Jishan was born in the Yang family and was the leader of the Taoist soldiers. He had experienced hundreds of battles and naturally would not be afraid of fighting.

The foundation-building leader charged in front, and the Taoist soldiers formed a formation and followed closely behind. The foundation-building cultivators from other families and sects supported from both wings, and ordinary Qi-refining cultivators followed to kill.

The corpse cultivation method was insidious, but in a head-on group battle, they were a group of rabble and could not withstand a single blow.

Most of the zombies they summoned fought on their own and could not match the Taoist soldiers and could not stop the Taoist soldiers' charge.

Once the corpse cultivator died, the zombies under his command lost control and would lose their minds and attack any cultivator indiscriminately, including the corpse cultivator.

The Taoist soldiers were unstoppable for a while.

Until Lu Chengyun showed up.

Behind him, there followed a huge zombie, with long fangs, red eyes, and a hint of dark gold.

"Corpse King!"

The cultivators who knew the rumors about Dao Xie were all shocked when they saw it.

They had either calculated it, heard about it, or been secretly warned by the cultivators of the sect or family.

This corpse king is the embryo of Dao Xie!

Yang Jishan was palpitating, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

The embryo of Dao Xie must be strangled in the cradle!

"Kill!"

Yang Jishan waved his hand, and the Taoist soldiers were armed with sharp weapons, and they rushed forward with the same hatred. The formations on the armor were connected with each other, echoing each other, and condensed into the phantom of a tiger.

Lu Chengyun looked indifferent and waved his arms.

The blood pattern on the chest of the corpse king lit up, and he roared to the sky, and his voice shook the mountains.

Twenty iron coffins nearby trembled one after another, and the coffins were opened, and the iron corpse jumped out straight.

In the mine, tens of thousands of zombies roared together, like thousands of ghosts at night, sweeping over, making people's scalps numb.

A fierce battle broke out.

Monks and zombies, blood and corpse qi, magic and corpse magic, fighting, competing and interweaving...

This is the largest-scale monk battle in the Xiaohuangzhou in the past eight hundred years.

After the fierce battle, the Taoist soldiers failed to capture the corpse mine, but suffered many casualties.

Lu Chengyun still occupied the corpse mine and controlled the corpse king. He had dozens of iron corpses and tens of thousands of zombies under his command. No matter how the Taoist soldiers attacked, he remained motionless.

Yang Jishan could not capture the mine for a long time, and his troops suffered more and more casualties.

Moreover, during the battle, there were corpse cultivators stealing corpses.

These dead Taoist soldiers and monks are likely to be transformed into zombies by the corpse cultivators. Soon, they will bar their fangs on their own people on the battlefield.

Yang Jishan had no choice but to retreat first.

Most of Lu Chengyun's men were zombies, so he was not afraid of consumption.

And his subordinates were all living people, he couldn't afford to waste them.

Not to mention, the dead cultivators would strengthen the strength of the continent Chengyun.

Yang Jishan could only order a retreat first, but after the retreat, he ordered the Taoist soldiers to station outside and surround the corpse mine, hoping to trap Lu Chengyun to death.

Lu Chengyun released thousands of zombies and controlled them to attack Nanyue City, besieging Wei to save Zhao.

Thousands of zombies formed a corpse tide.

All the living cultivators encountered along the way were either reduced to blood food nutrients or transformed into zombies and became part of the corpse tide.

Yang Jishan had no choice but to divide his troops to defend the city.

At the same time, he ordered all mine cultivators, independent cultivators, and family and sect cultivators to station in Nanyue City and not go out.

The matter of destroying the corpse mine will be discussed later.

The Taoist soldiers who were frustrated in the first battle, as well as the various forces of the Taoist court, stationed outside the mine, taking pills, healing and resting.

In the cave where they were discussing matters, everyone looked solemn.

Some people were indignant and yelled:

"Lu Chengyun is such a beast!"

"He cultivated so many zombies and then let the zombies attack the city."

"He committed so many murders for his own selfish interests. He really deserves to be killed!"

"It's normal for a demon to act like this. You are surprised..."

"Because it's a demon, it's normal to do bad things? So you shouldn't scold it?"

"Why are you angry with me..."

"With your character, you will fall into the demon sooner or later..."

"Don't talk nonsense!"

"Okay, okay, stop arguing..."

"Alas, to be honest, I've lived for so long, and this is the first time I've seen such a heartless person. 's means, and it's the first time I've seen someone who can refine so many zombies..."

"The Dao Court is unified, and these days, there are very few demon cultivators who dare to act like this..."

"That's because the deeds of demon cultivators are mostly obscure, and you can't see them."

"How is that possible?"

Someone sneered, "Those glamorous and righteous people, how do you know that they are not demons behind them?"

"Just like the Lu Chengyun incident, if it hadn't been exposed, who would have known?"

"You are saying something that hurts your heart!"

"Humph, you don't understand..."

...

The huge cave was full of noisy sounds.

Yang Jishan asked everyone to be quiet and said in a deep voice:

"Let's talk about other things later. The most urgent task is to work together and find a way to capture the corpse mine!"

"The longer this matter is delayed, the greater the disaster!"

Yang Jishan's eyes were solemn.

After all, this corpse king is related to the evil of the Dao.

The evil of the Dao is the most terrifying...

Everyone was silent, and many people felt depressed.

Some of the people present were from small families and sects. They were unfamiliar and nervous about participating in such a large-scale war, so they dared not say anything at this time.

The other part was indeed from large sects and big families.

But it was obviously the first time they encountered such a large battle.

They were also a little overwhelmed.

And the opponents were countless zombies.

When they really fought, they realized that in such a large-scale melee, what they could do with their personal cultivation alone was really limited.

A cultivator asked: "Commander Yang, I have something unclear..."

Yang Jishan nodded and motioned him to continue.

The cultivator said: "Logically speaking, we have a lot of people, and this time we attack, there are Taoist soldiers charging into battle. Even if we can't capture the corpse mine, we should at least be able to severely damage these corpse cultivators..."

"In the group battle of cultivators, Taoist soldiers have always been successful."

"But why, not only did we fail to achieve success, but we fell behind?"

Many of the cultivators present also looked puzzled.

In the melee, their blood boiled, and they only knew to fight together, using spiritual weapons, martial arts, and magic.

They followed the command of Commander Yang and advanced and retreated together.

If they could win, they would fight, and if they couldn't win, they would retreat.

They didn't pay much attention to other things, and didn't think much.

They were also confused about why they had the advantage and why they couldn't win.

Yang Jishan sighed, frowned and pondered:

"If I guess correctly, this corpse king can control dozens of iron corpses and nearly ten thousand walking corpses at the same time."

Everyone looked at each other, "So what?"

Wasn't this known from the beginning...

"It's different," Yang Jishan shook his head, "This is not an ordinary corpse control."

He knew that the Dao Court banned the inheritance of the magic way, and ordinary cultivators did not deal with magic cultivators.

Even some major forces and cultivators with inheritance only had a superficial understanding of magic cultivators.

They didn't understand the deep things at all.

Yang Jishan continued to explain:

"Generally, the control of corpses is very crude, and can only issue simple orders, such as 'kill', 'eat', 'attack', or 'defend'."

"And once there are more zombies under control, the actions of these zombies, although they have the same goal, they fight on their own, just like headless flies."

Yang Jishan looked serious, "But this time the zombies are completely different..."

"The zombies are still zombies, but the method of controlling corpses is very special and meticulous."

"All the zombies' actions are uniform, attacking and defending, advancing and retreating, and forming their own rules. This is incredible..."

"Even if the zombies are still the same zombies, and their individual strengths remain unchanged, once there are rules and disciplines, the actions are unified, and the overall strength is completely different."

Yang Jishan sighed, "This kind of thing is similar to the Taoist soldiers. We generally call it the magic 'corpse soldiers'..."

Corpse soldiers...

Everyone changed color when they heard this.

On the other side, Lu Chengyun looked at the corpse king in front of him and nodded slightly.

Zhang Quan was right. With the Corpse King, these zombies can indeed form "corpse soldiers".

In today's battle, the zombies became soldiers and competed with the Taoist soldiers of the Dao Court without losing.

They were not afraid of death or injury because they did not feel pain.

Corpse soldiers were stronger than Taoist soldiers.

Lu Chengyun sneered.

Although for some reason, the Dao Court got the news and sent Taoist soldiers to encircle him.

But this is in the second-grade state boundary, with a second-grade Corpse King, commanding the Iron Corpse and the Walking Corpse, they can't think of conquering the Corpse Mine for a while.

Even if the Corpse Mine is conquered in the end, I have plenty of ways to get out.

I can find a scapegoat at that time.

I can also get rid of Lu Chengyun's annoying identity, start a new business, and make a comeback...

As long as the Corpse King is still in my hands.

As long as I still have the Lingshu Formation...

After all, formations are the foundation of formation masters.

Lu Chengyun smiled gently, his eyes flashing coldly.

Suddenly, his mind moved slightly, and he thought of Mo Hua again...

Mo Hua was used as a sacrifice by him and fed to Zhang Quan's ancestral painting.

I wonder if it has been eaten up after all these days...

Lu Chengyun had wanted to go and see it a long time ago, but he was delayed by the siege of the corpse mine, and he couldn't get away for a while.

Lu Chengyun said silently in his heart:

"After a while, when he is completely eaten, I will go and see it again. By the way, I will also refine the body of the little monk into a little zombie and keep it by my side to serve me..."

Lu Chengyun's eyes sank slightly.

But what he didn't know was that Mo Hua was not eaten up, but the Zhang family was almost "eaten" up...
