Hearing that loud shout, I was taken aback!
Just when one wave had settled, another rose…
In an instant, the Corpse King sprang up with a sudden movement, its hair wild and its face twisted beyond recognition. While it was terrifying, I found myself wanting to laugh instead. Why? The Corpse King's current appearance resembled that of a woman who had undergone a botched plastic surgery.
However, this creature packed quite a punch. With a swift leap, it slammed its fist into my chest, producing a dull thud. I felt a sweetness in my throat, and before I knew it, I opened my mouth and spat out a mouthful of black blood. My body felt lighter as I was sent flying backward, crashing into the fallen leaves behind me. The leaves were drenched in dew, which felt incredibly cold—like being doused with icy water in the middle of winter after someone had yanked my clothes open. I shivered uncontrollably, but strangely enough, it made me feel more alert.
I looked up to see the Corpse King staring directly at me… Countless ghosts around us were baring their teeth and claws but dared not approach any closer!
Then… a shocking scene unfolded before my eyes!
Green hair began to sprout from the exposed skin of the Corpse King!!
Green hair!!!
To be honest, I had never seen such a Big Zongzi before!
Those with white hair were called White Malevolence.
Those with black hair were known as Black Fiend.
Those with red hair were referred to as Blood Corpse.
But green? That was simply too horrifying—truly astonishing!
At that moment, I felt the air around me solidifying, a bleak and chilling sensation that sent countless goosebumps across my body.
It seemed that this Corpse King was no ordinary foe!
I was completely on edge!
Damn it, this Corpse King had reached a very high level. If a corpse is buried too close to its enemy, once it enters a state of reanimation, it will instinctively crawl towards the opponent, devour them, and fully absorb their abilities to become stronger!
This meant that the group of spirits surrounding us was entirely under its control.
However, as I thought about this, I sensed something was off; there was an unsettling feeling lurking beneath the surface.
Once a Corpse Fiend consumes an enemy's corpse, it falls into a dormant state. When it awakens, it transforms into a terrifying monster. According to the descriptions in Mausoleum Secrets regarding the ferocity of such beings, they are absolutely not weaker than a Drought Demon—far beyond what I could contend with at this moment!
It seemed that the death of this Corpse King was rather suspicious!
Nevertheless, these were not matters I should be considering right now. I pushed back my bowl and began to retreat while speaking in a low voice to her, "Bowl, I know you just exhausted your limited spiritual energy to stop the Corpse King. You must not intervene in the upcoming battle!"
It was during one of those unintentional moments that I realized why Bowl could sometimes be so ruthless and cold. Once she tapped into her own spiritual energy, it was as if she transformed into a completely different person. Only this cold and decisive demeanor allowed her to command respect and lead others. However, if she overexerted her Spiritual Energy, she would be severely weakened and would take at least ten days to recover!
"Alright!"
Bowl was still in the phase of unleashing her spiritual energy. She responded promptly without any hesitation.
However, there is still a bit of good fortune at the moment!
As for the Zongzi, unless one reaches the level of a Drought Demon, a corpse is just a corpse, lacking much intelligence. Even a Flying Corpse has only just begun to awaken its awareness. But how many Drought Demons can there be in this world? The emergence of even one is a major event that draws attention from all sides!
The Corpse King is no different; its beastly nature far outweighs its human side. The living Yang Qi it possesses is given by me, so naturally, it is most "familiar" with me, and its primary target must be me!
At this point, this is the only way to completely eliminate this Corpse King.
Ha...
At this moment, the green fur on the Corpse King had already grown to twenty or thirty centimeters long, resembling a giant green-furred turtle. It opened its mouth and exhaled towards me, releasing a wave of Eerie Energy along with filth and deathly aura. It was a sight more repulsive than cleaning a latrine, making me feel nauseous to the point of wanting to vomit. Then, with a long howl, it sprang directly towards me with astonishing speed and incredible jumping ability, covering several meters in an instant!
"Damn it! Go to hell!"
I had been keeping an eye on its movements. As soon as I saw it move, I let out a loud roar and drew my Azure Dark Sword, thrusting it toward the creature.
In a narrow encounter, the brave prevail!
Perhaps due to excessive tension and excitement, I could feel every muscle in my body trembling lightly. As I watched the green-furred Big Zongzi charging toward me with fierce winds swirling around it, my focus sharpened to a peak. A low growl escaped my throat involuntarily: "Kill!"
This was my battle against it; at least at this moment it was, because there were no better opportunities for combat. No one would help me now; I could only charge forward. Stepping out decisively, I swung my Azure Dark Sword at the green-furred Big Zongzi. The sword energy sliced through the air in a crescent shape, and in that instant of intensity, even the smoke surrounding us seemed to brighten. All that remained in my eyes was the flash of blades!
The Corpse King was equally ferocious; it almost straightened its arm to block my sword. When our weapons collided, there was a loud clang as the sword struck its arm. The entire blade shook violently, emitting a bright light. Immediately afterward, the Yin Sha energy emanating from the Corpse King exploded like thunder, striking fiercely against my chest with a dull thud that sent me stumbling back several meters.
In mid-air, I let out a quiet sigh. From the moment we clashed, I knew the difference in our strengths. I was sent flying by my opponent, who truly was as tough as steel!
This time, however, I was prepared. After being knocked back, I managed to flip in the air and adjust my landing position, crashing down with a thud but without looking too foolish.
The more I fought, the braver I became; this was not a moment for anger to take control. I felt sharper and more focused than ever. Bring it on!
With my sword in hand and myself ready, I knew that when the sword fell, death would follow!
Roar!
The Corpse King blocked my Azure Dark Sword with its arm. After all, it was a treasured blade, and its arm suffered severe damage from the impact. The ferocity within it was unleashed as it threw back its head and roared. Even from several meters away, I could smell the stench of decay and rot emanating from its mouth. It looked incredibly fierce as it charged toward me while howling.
This time, I certainly wouldn’t meet force with force! After several rounds of entanglement with the Corpse King, an idea struck me. Seizing the opportunity when it left itself wide open, I suddenly turned around and executed a counterattack with all my might. My sword sliced through the thick green fur for nearly thirty centimeters before plunging deep into its blackened, shriveled skin. As I withdrew my Azure Dark Sword, white smoke began to billow from its body, and I could even see the dark skeleton beneath its skin.
Did I take it down?
Impossible! It couldn’t be that simple… Sure enough, reality soon dealt me a heavy blow!
