What If I Can't Die?

by Legrev

Song Shi came to an immortal world where demons and monsters were rampant. He thought he was going to take a trepidatious road to immortality, but ended up awakening to a death-defying system, gaining strength from death and getting stronger every time he died. The whole style took a sudden change. Other people cultivated to seek immortality, but he was already immortal, and could

81 Dying While in Slumber

"Brother Cai, your behavior is very immoral."

Elder Dou, who was protecting himself with his walking stick Dharma artifact, said faintly, "Are you seeking to make a fortune by looting our corpses after we're all killed?"

"That's not true. I've exhausted too much Spiritual Energy and don't have enough Spiritual Energy Restoration Pills. I can only look for them from the dead bodies of fellow Daoists."

Cai Dao's face was not red and his heart rate was calm despite being exposed. He quickly found an excuse for himself and glanced at the place where the stone was thrown.

!!

He scanned the surroundings with his divine consciousness but could not determine where Song Shi was. Even if he said that Song Shi was here as well, if he did not make a sound or show his face, it would only make him appear silly. Hence he could only suffer this loss in silence.

Facing the resentful expressions of Elder Dou and the other cultivators, he hurriedly took out a Qi Replenishing Pill from his storage bag and pretended to found it from the storage bag he had just touched. He then said in surprise, "I finally found a medicinal pill!"

"Daoist Cai, please help us and escape together!"

Chen Yiling's face was pale and she looked like she could collapse at any moment.

If she did not have a high-level talisman protecting her body, she would have been long been killed by the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guards' bone-breaking needles.

Therefore, even though she knew that Daoist Cai was looting the corpse, she still pretended to be ignorant and asked for help.

"Ahem, I'll do my best."

Daoist Cai knew that he had no more chance to secretly loot the corpses. He could only activate his horsetail whisk Dharma treasure, causing a circle of lightning to spread out. Amidst the crackling lightning, he braced himself and went over to help.

With the help of a tenth level Qi Refinement cultivator, Old Dou and the others, who could be killed at any given moment, could finally take a breather.

At this moment, Wuchen Zi and Chang Sunji's Spiritual Energy had been greatly depleted, and their condition was even worse than Chen Yiling and the others. They could not even activate their Dharma artifacts anymore and were no longer much of a threat. They could only fight at close range.

However, the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard was still in a good state. He was a Foundation Establishment superhuman. Even though his strength had already been greatly depleted, his power was still ten times greater than theirs.

Moreover as they were already exhausted. Daoist Cai alone could not withstand the enemy for long.

"Brother Cai, even if your lightning-type spell can't injure this Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard, it's definitely not a problem if you want to paralyze him. Work with me. I'll use my wood-type spell to trap him and we'll be able to escape."

Elder Dou suggested, given that only the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guards was a threat now.

"Sure. These guys are all controlled by Old Nightmare's Crowd Control skill. They stop until they're exhausted or until they are killed."

Daoist Cai looked wary, "With our abilities, we can't wake them up at all. The power of this extraordinary Foundation Establishment skill is as deep as the sea. We definitely can't deplete it alone. We can only think of a way to trap them."

"I'll use the power of the talisman to stop him first. Hurry up."

Chen Yiling nodded and took the initiative to step forward and leap in front of the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard. The Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard's bone-breaking needles caused the golden bell talisman on her body to break in several places.

The other two Connate cultivators blocked Chang Sunji and Wuchen Zi.

"I'll attack first!"

Daoist Cai used his horsetail whisk Dharma artifact to protect himself. Then, he took out a peach wood sword and chanted an incantation.

In the next second, the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth fluctuated and a ball of lightning appeared at the tip of the sword.

Crack! Crack!

Sizzle! Sizzle!

The dark night was pierced by lightning and thunder, as if many birds were crying out urgently. A thunder ball quickly condensed. However, the bigger the thunder ball, the worse Daoist Cai's expression became.

It was obvious that this spell consumed a lot of his energy.

"He actually knows lightning techniques. This is even more ferocious and domineering than fire techniques. No wonder he wasn't controlled by that Old Man Nightmare's spell."

Song Shi watched from the side with a surprised expression.

While Daoist Cai was condensing the power of lightning, Elder Dou also began to chant an incantation. A circle of dense green light appeared, filled with vitality.

BOOM!

The power of the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard was terrifying. He sent Chen Yiling flying with a punch and almost broke the golden bell-like shield on her body.

"Quick, I can't hold on any longer!"

Chen Yiling cried out in alarm. The power of her talisman was already on the verge of collapse, it was violently morphing and distorting. If he struck again, she would be beaten to a pulp.

"Hurry and dodge! Nine Heavens Magical Thunder, go!"

Daoist Cai shouted in a low voice and slashed out with his peach wood sword. A lightning ball the size of his head flashed and flew towards the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard.

There was a loud bang.

The blinding white light shone brightly and lightning snakes darted around him.

The latter's entire body was covered in blue vital essence. Although his defense was barrier very strong, it was still not comparable to the protection of Dharma artifacts and talismans.

Under the power of extreme Yang lightning, the blue elemental energy was broken through. However, the power of the spell itself also dissipated greatly after that. It landed in front of the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard, shattering his clothes and leaving a charred wound on his chests.

However, this person's body was shining with a precious light. It was clear that he had cultivated a treasure body. In the end, the power of thunder didn't cause too much damage, only managing to paralyze his body momentarily.

At this moment, Elder Dou formed a hand seal and shouted, "Multiple Thorns Entanglement!"

The green light landed on the ground and thorns as thick as an arm grew out of thin air. There were nine of them, and they were like venomous snakes crawling out of the ground. They wrapped around the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard tightly, making it difficult for him to move.

"Let's go!"

Daoist Cai turned and ran.

"Wait for me."

Elder Dou panted as he followed.

The other two Connate experts did not hesitate and quickly escaped.

Chen Yiling glanced at Wuchen Zi. After all, this guy was from the same sect as her. She walked over and knocked him out. Then she gritted her teeth and carried him away.

As for Chang Sunji, no one cared about him. At this moment, he was still cursing feebly.

When Chen Yiling and the others ran out, a jade plate suddenly appeared in the air. After it landed on the ground, the scenery within a hundred feet suddenly distorted.

...

Immediately, a fog rose and enveloped the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard, seperating him from the others who were breaking free and forming an Array Formation space.

Song Shi appeared in the fog. He glanced at the Invisibility Talisman, which was much dimmer and walked towards Chang Sunji with a cold smile.

Given such a good opportunity, if he killed Chang Sunji now, he would never be mocked by him again

Swoosh!

A flash of light from a sword flashed and Chang Sunji's head fell off. The latter screamed, "My head, my head."

"It's fine. I'm just dreaming. My head will grow out later, hehe!"

Chang Sunji consoled himself with a smile. He was still sleepwalking, but his eyes were slowly closing forever.

Just like that, in his slumber, Chang Sunji lost his life.

A foot appeared beside him. Song Shi looked down at Chang Sunji's head and muttered, "You're not dreaming. You're really dead!"

Song Shi grinned. "For you to die like this, I am going easy on you. That b*tch Song Jia has to find a new boyfriend now, I need to tell her to not find someone like you next time. Otherwise, if they provoke me like you did, I'll have to kill them off again."

"However, this Old Man Nightmare's methods are really terrifying. He still hasn't escaped being controlled even until his death. But that's good for me. You can't blame me for killing you now."

...

Song Shi had a fearful expression. This was the first time he had encountered such a strange mind control method. It was even stranger than the so-called hypnosis.

After all, it was not just one person who was killed this time, but more than 30 people. Without any special methods, they were used as tools to kill each other in their dreams, which resulted in them dying in the battle.

"I can't risk to encounter that old fellow for the time being. It'll be troublesome if I'm targeted by him!"

With a look of fear, he turned around and looked at the guy who had already broken the thorns. His gaze was cold.

"Extraordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator. I want to see how powerful you are!"

He strode over but did not take the initiative commit suicide.

This time, he was prepared to fight this guy. Even if he died, he would only die during battle.

82 Grandmaster, Feed Me

The Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard was still in a nightmare. When Song Shi approached, the bone-breaking needle landed in his hand and he stabbed at Song Shi like it was a dagger.

This person's close-range assassination technique was rather impressive. His movements were not sloppy at all. Song Shi subconsciously dodged, but a wound still appeared on his collarbone.

"Extraordinary martial artists are indeed quite destructive when in close combat."

Song Shi raised his hand and used his Iron Sand Palm. In the end, it only deformed the other party's protective true essence while his throat was inexplicably pierced by the Bone Breaking Needle.

!!

"This person… has undergone special training!"

Realizing the difference between the two of them, Song Shi lost his chance and was sent flying by a punch from the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard. As blood spewed of his mouth out, he fell to the ground and died.

Three seconds later, Song Shi stood up again with a serious expression.

After the initial combat, he realized that he was not much inferior to the other party in terms of strength and Defense. However, he could not even last a round in close combat.

This could only mean that this person's combat experience was far above his.

"Hei Duzi's experience is biased towards Gu and poison, he is inferior to me in close combat, but this person is a Martial Dao master who has experienced hundreds of battles."

Song Shi sighed.

Those who cultivated martial arts were collectively called martial artists.

However, in the path of martial arts, there were also respectful titles. For example, Postnatal cultivators would be called martial artists, and Connate cultivators were respectfully called Masters. If one reached the Extraordinary Foundation Establishment realm, they would be a grandmaster-level figure who could establish a sect.

This kind of person was actually acting as Chang Sunji's guard. This really showed how powerful the person behind Chang Sunji was!

Fortunately, he did not kill him in front of everyone with the Fire Python Talisman on the city tower in a moment of impulse. Otherwise…

Of course, killing him didn't seem like a big deal.

As long as his powers were not sealed, dying a few times was not a big deal. However, the few people in his family would probably be killed.

He had not reached the point where he did not care about his family. He had to consider these things for the time being.

After all, even Hei Duzi could kill his entire family for revenge. If that Virtuous Phoenix King took revenge and did not kill all three generations of the Song family, he would probably be letting down his status as a King.

Song Shi pondered and walked towards the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard again.

Previously, he felt that the difference between him and this person was their cultivation level only. Now, it seemed that the difference between was quite big.

"Die!"

Song Shi's eyes were filled with murderous intent. This time, he took out the Gentleman Sword. The sharp aura transformed into a Wind-like power that enveloped him.

Puff!

A cold light emerged from the Gust of wind. With a wave of blue vital essence, the Gust of wind dissipated with a clang.

Song Shi felt a pain in his wrist, as if he had been bitten by a venomous snake. Immediately, blood gushed out.

His sword technique was actually broken through!

Amidst his shock, a cold light flashed upon him and he died again.

Although his death happened mainly because the other party's Dharma artifact restrained him, he was still quite shocked that the Gust Wind Sword skill he had just mastered was broken through so easily.

In front of this guy, he felt that his moves were as clumsy as a child's.

After reviving, he saw that there were many scrapes on his Gentleman Sword. He took a deep breath and focused.

He charged over again and locked his gaze on the other party's actions. He realized that when the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard attacked, the Bone Breaking Needle seemed to have come alive and turned into a poisonous snake upon his command.

The tip of the needle was like a poisonous fang. Its movements were swift, mysterious, and unpredictable. Its power was incomparably condensed and it displayed the technique of breaking through any surfaces impressively.

"Why am I getting such an odd feeling watching it? Could this be the Divine Decree that Elder Qin mentioned?"

Song Shi was deep in thought. He decided to treat this fellow's attack as a venomous snake and struck. The tip of his Sword pierced the Bone Breaking needle by seven inches and with a clang, he successfully blocked it.

Flames erupted and danced as another piece of his Gentleman Sword fell apart. Song Shi did not care at all as he roughly guessed now what the so-called Divine Decree was.

The Divine Decree was something that roughly followed the nature of what the skill was named after in the world. For example the Gust Wind Sword had to follow the rules of the wind. This person's acupuncture technique, which was like a poisonous snake, should also follow the characteristics of a poisonous snake's attack.

"The rules of Gust Wind… the rules of the poisonous snake. I've got it!"

Song Shi's eyes became brighter and brighter. He carefully sensed the movement of the Gusts of wind that were swept up during their battle. His sword technique instantly became smooth and natural and gradually, there were no traces of his movements.

His eyes lit up. He injected Nine Yang True Energy into the sword and circulated it according to the rules of the wind. He then shouted in a low voice, "Sword of Gust!"

The scorching air currents rapidly revolved around his Sword. With Song Shi as the center reference point, Gusts of winds instantly erupted. All the power gathered at one point and stabbed towards the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard.

Rumble!

Crimson Fire Whirlwind flashes of Swords that were more than ten meters long appeared one after another with astonishingly domineering aura.

The blue light on the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guards' bodies fluctuated and fused into the Bone Breaking Needle. Instantly, it condensed into a huge poisonous snake. It twisted its body and opened its mouth and the poisonous teeth flickered with a cold light as it bit towards the red Gust of fiery whirlwind.

BOOM!

The poisonous snake and fiery gust of whirlwind collided, stirring up a chaotic wave. The ground broke inch by inch, and the nearby buildings shattered and collapsed with a bang. Fragments rolled and spread out far and wide from the aftershock.

Even the fog of the Array Formation dissipated slightly from the collision, revealing Song Shi's retreating figure. The Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard opposite him also took half a step back.

"Haha, so that's how it is. The so-called Divine Decree follows the rules of heaven and earth and is similar to spells. However, these rules are rules of the nature which needs to be comprehended by oneself. Actually, it's not that difficult after all."

Song Shi laughed loudly. He did not realize the true extent how powerful his Comprehension was. Even if others found the trick, it would be difficult for them to grasp the Heaven Decree of the Gust power so quickly.

"Ding… congratulations on perfecting the Gust Wind Sword. You have been rewarded with one chance to draw the lottery."

The system notification appeared. Song Shi had successfully cultivated this sword technique to perfection and officially had an additional lesser divine power.

Although it was only the lowest level first-grade lesser divine power, its power was not inferior to the Fireball Technique at all. Moreover, it's power could be controlled by Song Shi and released very quickly. There was no need to form seals at all.

Now Song Shi could generate fireball whenever he fought with the sword. This effect was completely different from purposefully generating and throwing a fireball at someone.

Crack!

...

Before he could laugh, the Gentleman Sword in Song Shi's hand broke into two with a heart-wrenching sound.

In the end, the high-grade treasure weapon could not withstand the collision with the high-grade Dharma artifact and broke!

Song Shi could only put it away. He raised his hand and grabbed the air, causing a flying sword to appear.

When he saw that the flying sword was only a foot long, his face twitched. Such low-level Dharma artifacts did not have the function of enlarging when willed. If he didn't need a sword to kill his enemy right now, he could only use this artifact as a dagger.

He did not have much experience regarding using a dagger, so he naturally could not use this to battle. He raised his hand and put it away, taking out a large saber.

This was only a high quality Precious Weapon instead of a Treasure Weapon. But at least it would not break in a short period of time. He closed his eyes and recalled the scene of the storm in his mind.

Clang!

With a flash of the saber, Song Shi jumped up and slashed down ruthlessly.

Clang!

The Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard held the bone-breaking needle horizontally and easily blocked the saber.

However, the endless saber beams were like a storm that drowned him in the blink of an eye.

...

Unlike the ever-changing sword techniques, the saber techniques were more open and powerful. They were imposing and had the spirit of engulfing rivers and choppy seas.

The Storm Saber was a typical saber technique Style. It incorporated the characteristics of the endless rainstorm and was pervasive. Its attacks were very domineering and fierce in nature. If one could not withstand a single strike, they would be dismembered by the chaotic saber.

The Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard was indeed an extraordinary martial arts grandmaster. Even though he was enveloped by saber beams that filled the sky, he could still deal with them calmly. If they were not fighting, this scene would have looked like a martial arts grandmaster was feeding Song Shi.

Yet, this was also the case. Song Shi was rapidly growing in his combat knowledge as he fought with this Grandmaster. His lack of close combat skills quickly increased to the level that he should have at his current strength, and even exceeded it.

"Rainstorm Saber!"

When the saber beam had become extremely dense, Song Shi shouted. The saber beam in the void condensed into specks of light that then rained down like a storm.

…

83 Mid-grade Dharma Body

Ding, ding, ding!

In an instant, the Bone Breaking Needle and the saber collided hundreds of times, causing sparks to fly.

After a while, Song Shi took a step back.

"This guy actually withstood it. He's indeed quite capable."

Song Shi landed on the ground and panted. This person was like a deep lake. His strength was flexible and endless and no matter how Song Shi attacked, he could neutralize all of it.

"His strength and moves are not very different. The difference between me and him is still in terms of our energy. This person's elemental energy is much stronger than mine. After adding the power of Dharma artifact, his power is extraordinary."

Song Shi analyzed the gap between the two of them.

Be it cultivators or martial artists, the differences between different realms were roughly similar.

The energy in the bodies of Postnatal, Connate, or Qi Refinement cultivators were all in gaseous state. The difference was that the former was called Genuine Qi while the latter was Spiritual Energy.

If a martial artist broke through to the extraordinary realm, their Genuine Qi would transform into True Essence. After reaching the Foundation Establishment realm of Qi Refinement, their Spiritual Energy would transform into Spiritual Essence. Both could then be called Essence Energy!

If they continued to advance forward, the difference between the strength of a martial artist and an immortal cultivator would disappear.

After reaching the Foundation Establishment realm, both would be able to condense their strength into a solid state. It was just that martial arts cultivators were used to calling this stage the True Core while immortal cultivators termed it the Golden Core realm.

But in fact, the power of this realm was nomological power.

There was a qualitative difference between the three energies of Qi, Origin, and Dharma. Therefore, even though Song Shi's Treasure body was very powerful, he could not easily defeat this Martial Dao master even after using two small divine powers in a row.

If it was a comparison of Dharma arts and Dharma artifacts, he would be at a disadvantage. Fortunately, this guy was a Martial Dao master and his Dharma artifact and spells were very ordinary.

"My physical body is stronger than his. I can exhaust him to death!"

Song Shi could only use this stupid method. With a flash of his saber, he charged over again.

After one round.

A crisp sound rang out again.

After such a violent attack, the Precious Weapon that he had just taken out could not withstand the force of it and broke into pieces in his hand.

Without his weapon, Song Shi's combat strength clearly decreased.

The Bone Breaking Needle attacked from a strange angle. Song Shi's pupils constricted as he locked onto its trajectory. He dodged to the side and used the Phantom image Step, causing his figure to transform into a shadow.

Swoosh!

Suddenly his shadow shattered and dissipated.

Song Shi mysteriously appeared behind the other party. He circulated the Dragon Elephant Technique and fiery red True Energy surged in his body. Swiftly, he formed a seal with his left hand.

Lu~

The air around him fluctuated and a fire elephant condensed in his hand. It was huge, like a real elephant, but its entire body was burning with the power of fire.

The Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard raised his other hand, and a large wave appeared, turning into a huge Wave that rushed towards the Fire Elephant.

The Fire Elephant crashed into the huge wave. Amidst the deafening sound, the flames were extinguished by the huge wave and the elephant's body shattered.

"He also has a divine power!"

Song Shi was shocked. Then he immediately recalled that since he knew two lesser divine powers, the other party has probably also mastered a few.

Furthermore, his divine power was very powerful. Not only did it shatter the power of the Dragon Elephant Art, but it also swept Song Shi up into the air.

He felt as if he was enveloped by a real wave. He couldn't even breathe. His body convulsed uncontrollably and he couldn't use the Phantom image Steps anymore.

"Shit!"

Song Shi felt that something was wrong.

His advantage was that his physical body was strong, but once his movements were restricted, he would become a sitting target for others.

Swoosh!

The Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard used the Bone Breaking Needle as a tool for assassination and threw it out. It pierced into Song Shi's glabella and passed through the back of his head before being flying back as controlled by the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard.

Song Shi died in midair. When his corpse landed on the ground, the bloody hole between his eyebrows disappeared. He bounced up and rushed over again without any hesitation.

He had no more weapons on him to practice his weapon combat skills for the time being. So he could only practice his movement techniques and palm techniques.

With one step, four shadows instantly rushed out.

This was the effect of the perfected Phantom Image Step. The four Phantom images were enough to dazzle and confuse people.

Under Old Man Nightmare's Crowd Control, the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard actually felt like he was fighting someone in a dream. After seeing Song Shi's methods, he directly slashed forward with the bone-breaking needle.

An arc of cold light spread out and slashed horizontally at all the shadows.

Song Shi jumped up and the Phantom images followed suit, dodging the cold light.

Crack!

The cold light cut a wall far behind him in half. The top half slid to the ground, raising a ring of dust.

Without breaking Song Shi's movement technique, the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard brandished their bone-breaking needles like brushes, sending out cold beams one after another.

Puchi!

A Phantom image was cut into pieces, but Song Shi also successfully closed the distance between them. The Iron Sand Palm struck his chest, and the blue water-element vital essence of the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard was broken inch by inch by Song Shi's Iron Sand Palm.

The Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard was sent flying. Just as Song Shi thought that he had the upper hand this time, the blue primeval essence suddenly transformed into a python that entangled him and the Bone Breaking Needle shot towards him.

"Dammit, he intentionally took a palm strike from me to distinguish which was my true body!"

It was too late for Song Shi to react. He had been killed again.

He had learned from zll his mistakes and knew how complicated a real battle was. Even if he had the upper hand on the surface, the situation could always around in the next moment.

...

If not for the fact that he had an immortal system, his short life would not have been enough time for him to learn.

After reviving again, Song Shi became much more cautious.

"Without a sure-kill attack, I can't give him a chance. Even if I have a sure-kill attack, I still have to be careful. I have no idea what will happen in the next moment at all."

After his mentality changed, Song Shi began to fight the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard back and forth with the help of his Phantom image Step.

After familiarizing himself with this person's combat Style, Song Shi's dodging efficiency kept increasing. For a moment, it was as if multiple Phantom images were attacking the guard at the same time.

At the same time, he realized that after his Vajra Dharma Body was fully activated, as long as he did not come into direct contact with the tip of the other party's Dharma artifacts, there would be no harm caused to him even when he collided with him.

This allowed him to use his martial arts skills, the Unfettered Hand which was extremely versatile. Combined with the Phantom image Steps, he managed to completely surround the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard.

After ten rounds, Song Shi's eyes were cold as he casually sent he Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard flying with a palm strike, while he managed to avoid the subsequent counterattack unharmed.

"It's about time!"

Song Shi muttered and looked above his head.

The sky was already bright. It was time to send this guy on his way to the afterlife.

...

Now that he was familiar with this guy's methods, he could kill this person any time.

Before killing him however, he had to make full use of his lethality.

With a thought, his True Energy stopped providing power to the diamond rune on his chest. Immediately, the golden light on his body dimmed and his defense level was reduced to the lowest.

After dispelling the runic power of the Vajra Dharma Body, Song Shi calmly walked towards the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guards who had just stood up.

Without any resisting, special Dharma artifact like the Bone Breaking Needles naturally pierced through his head.

Upon noticing Song Shi's abnormal behavior, the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard's dull eyes flickered for a moment. Then, the fluctuation was covered by a gray fog.

Truthfully, Song Shi felt that the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard was a little unlucky. If he had not been deliberately targeted by Old Man Nightmare, with his cultivation, he could have broken free from the Crowd Control a long time ago.

In the end, the power of the spell on his body was too strong. Although he could sense some abnormalities, he was still unable to break free from this nightmare.

Old Man Nightmare did not expect that the person he controlled would be used by Song Shi to farm deaths. If he knew, he would not have left so abruptly.

Song Shi lay comfortably on the spot to die. After a hundred times, the golden light on his body shone brightly.

His low-grade Dharma Body had been upgraded to mid-grade!

84 Cloning Technique

"Ding! You have been physically killed 300 times. You have awakened a mid-grade Vajra Dharma Body. Your Physique has increased by 300 points. The strength of your flesh and bones has increased by two times."

Amidst the system notification, the golden light on Song Shi's body condensed into two new Vajra runes that appeared on his glabella and back. Two circles of golden energy spread out and fused with the first layer of the shield. The thickness of the shield increased greatly, as his defense immediately increased greatly as well.

If the original golden energy shield was as thin as a cicada's wings, Then the improved shield would be like a gauze this time. Song Shi's skin had become even more delicate as well, like high-quality gold, that emitted a dazzling light.

The Bone Breaking Needle attacked him again. With a ding, it was directly repelled by the golden light from Song Shi's body, and left only a mark between his eyebrows. It could no longer break through Song Shi's protective barrier.

Song Shi opened his eyes, which were shining with golden light. He looked at his basic attributes statistics.

…

"My Physique has become much stronger again."

Song Shi muttered. After he had been killed by the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guards for the first ten times, he had received 50 points of Physique. After his Physique leveled up, he received an additional 300 points again.

His physique had already exceeded a thousand points. The Diamond Dharma Body had increased the defense of his bones and flesh by two times. Now his body was comparable to high-grade Dharma artifacts and could resist the other party's Dharma artifacts that specialized in breaking armor.

"Now, I think I can catch any Dharma artifacts with my bare hands!"

Song Shi stood up and walked over.

The Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard had fought with Chen Yiling and the others for a long time, and had also fought with Song Shi for dozens of rounds. At this moment, after killing Song Shi more than a hundred times in a row, his deep reserve of essence energy was almost exhausted.

Song Shi gave him a close-range attack and boom!

He was sent flying by Song Shi's slap. Even his Dharma artifacts fell to the ground.

Song Shi's figure flashed, and with a crack, he broke the man's neck.

He had successfully killed his first Extraordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator!

He lowered his body and took out his storage bag. He formed a seal and condensed the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth. It turned into a fireball that he threw out which destroyed the corpse.

After doing this, he was not in a hurry to disperse the array. Instead, he continued to use the Array Formation Power as a cover and began to dig holes in the courtyard.

He found a tool in the manor and started digging intensely.

It was Song Shi's first time burying corpses and he did it very seriously.

As the soil flew everywhere, Song Shi had managed to dig out a huge pit. Song Shi estimated that the space should be able to hold dozens of corpses.

"Daoist Cai said that he wanted to bury the dead too, but he actually ran away!"

Song Shi cursed as he moved the corpses into the pit. Then, he grabbed the soil lying around with his palm and pushed the soil over the pit to bury the corpses.

After doing this, he clapped his hands and stepped on the soil to flatten the pit. "Brothers, I've fulfilled my promise to you. If you have any dissatisfaction, go find Daoist Cai. He took your things but didn't do anything."

With that, he used his three new lottery chances that he had obtained.

He couldn't help but be addicted to farming deaths in order to get lottery chances. The lottery rewards were too interesting.

As the wheel of the remaining seven items moved, Song Shi drew three times in a row.

'Ding… Congratulations on obtaining a storage ring!

Ding… congratulations on drawing the Breeze Sword Control Technique!

Ding… congratulations on drawing the One Qi Cloning Technique!

Song Shi was surprised.

"Could the One Qi Clone Technique be related to the legendary Three Pure Ones technique?"

He had a strange expression on his face. This time, he had drawn two items that he was familiar with and one which was an unknown skill, this unknown skill made him quite curious.

He hurriedly checked his stats.

One Qi Cloning Technique: High-grade spell. Condenses an avatar with energy that possesses a certain level of strength. When perfected, it can possess 90% of the strength of the main body's Qi Refinement realm.

After reading the introduction, Song Shi confirmed that it had nothing to do with the Three Pure Ones technique. It was just an ordinary cloning technique.

"If my clone can disguise my real body, I will be more protected and secure when I go to court death in the future!"

Song Shi was quite happy. This time, since he had encountered a powerhouse like Old Man Nightmare who far exceeded his standards and abilities. He was extremely worried that his secret would be exposed.

However, if he had a clone to act as a decoy, he would be less suspicious when farming deaths.

The other two items were not bad either.

The storage ring was a low-grade Dharma treasure. It contained ten dimensions of space and could store a large number of resources. He directly emptied his storage bags and placed all the most precious resources inside this rind.

The final Breeze Sword Control Technique was not simple either. It was a top-notch spell that would allow Song Shi to fly on a sword while killing his enemies. It would also give him the power to split mountains and rivers.

These three things were enough to benefit him greatly in the future.

Song Shi was satisfied. He ran over and picked up the array disc. With a tap of his foot, it disappeared.

Not long after he left the courtyard.

"Howl~"

A howl from a wolf faintly sounded from outside the town.

Swoosh!

A black shadow flashed.

Beside the huge pit that Song Shi had just buried, a black wolf that was shaped like a calf appeared.

Its entire body was surging with black baleful aura and its eyes were filled with cunningness.

Behind it, more of the same black wolves appeared one after another.

They came to the pit and started digging it with their claws. The corpses that Song Shi had just buried were all dug out.

Many of the black wolves revealed greedy expressions. Their saliva flowed out and dripped onto the soil.

They opened their mouths and bared their sharp fangs , then rushed forward and tore at the flesh of the corpses.

A terrifying biting sound sounded out, and more than ten black wolves began a scrumptious feast.

"ROAR!"

Suddenly, the black wolf who was the leader of the pack roared angrily and stared at a certain spot. A yellow shadow flashed from that spot and snatched a piece of meat from the pit.

In the collapsed corner of the courtyard, a weasel-like wolf grinned and lowered its head to eat the food in its mouth.

Ferocious beasts with murderous auras appeared one after another and began to fight for the flesh of these cultivators.

It was just like how martial artists felt that eating Vicious beasts' meat was tasty. To these beasts, the flesh of cultivators was equally delicious.

The corpses that Song Shi had painstakingly buried were snatched away by a group of animals and devoured in an instant.

…

15 kilometers away, at the edge of the Thousand Poisons Mountain Range.

Chen Yiling and the others sat cross-legged in a cave to recover. Wuchen Zi, who was beside them, still have not woken up. After he was knocked unconscious, he had been tied tightly by a rope.

Daoist Cai used the excuse of being a guard to stay outside the cave. He hid behind a ten-foot-tall rock and was organizing his gains from his corpse loot.

"I'm rich. No wonder they say that killing people will fatten you. I think looting corpses is not a bad alternative to that."

He muttered happily. He felt that the treasures he had obtained from the corpse this time were enough for him to use for the next few years.

However, Foundation Establishment Pills could not be bought even with these. He still had to follow Chen Yiling and take the risk to complete the quest.

Daoist Cai's face fell. He sighed, "It's difficult to be a rogue cultivator. It's really so difficult."

"Daoist Cai, did you forget to do something?"

Song Shi's voice suddenly sounded from the boulder. When he looked up, Daoist Cai's expression immediately darkened.

"You're finally here!"

Chapter 85 Fellow Daoist, Please Wait

Daoist Cai jumped up and pointed at Song Shi, "You're so dishonest. You only know how to scam people."

"I don't know what you're talking about, but monks don't lie*. You didn't do what you had promised."

Song Shi squinted and said with disdain, "You have to compensate me. After all, I helped you finish what you promised the dead."

"I'm not a monk. Why should I keep to my promises?"

Daoist Cai was extremely shameless and refused the bargain he had made when looting corpses. "You tricked me too. Let's call it even on this matter."

"If you do this, I won't bring you along anymore when I do 'good deeds' in the future."

Song Shi glared at this shameless old man.

"Tsk, you make it sound like you do 'good deeds' all the time. This kind of thing doesn't happen often anyways."

Daoist Cai pursed his lips and wasn't bothered.

Realizing that this guy was a real piece of work, Song Shi did not bother arguing further. If he continued to argue, he would be exposed.

Song Shi sat cross-legged on the rock and waited quietly.

At this moment, he was deep in thought. In his current state, it seemed not bad to be a free and unaffiliated cultivator.

With the system, he could obtain a lot of resources from the lucky draw. Occasionally, he could also loot corpses while doing 'good deeds', this way he would definitely be able to be quite well off.

It was just that as a solo cultivator, he did not have access to news. Hence it would not be easy to know where the danger was.

If others knew that danger was coming they would do all they can to avoid it, but he knew that danger was a chance for him to farm deaths.

"The Heaven Secret Office and Flower Room that The Monk Zhengyuan mentioned provides cultivators with all kinds of information. Perhaps they can replace my current methods of seeking danger."

Just as Song Shi was thinking about how to maintain the balance between having freedom and obtaining sufficient information on where the danger is, Chen Yiling walked out and looked at him with a mixed gaze.

"Where were you during dawn?"

Song Shi already had a counter for this. He said calmly, "I pretended to be dead to avoid danger. After I escaped, I discovered traces of you leaving and chased after you."

Glancing at Song Shi's tattered clothes, Chen Yiling frowned. "I remembered that the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard and Chang Sunji came out of your room."

"That's why I have to pretend to be dead," Song Shi said matter-of-factly.

Hearing this, Daoist Cai curled his lips. He did not believe that it was so easy for Songs Shi to trick Chen Yiling. He most likely relied on his invisibility to escape.

Chen Yiling sensed that there was some secret that was shared between Daoist Cai and Song Shi, so she tactfully didn't ask further. Instead, she sighed and said, "My connection with Sikong Ya and the rest of the troops has been severed. They most likely met with misfortune and have perished as well."

Daoist Cai's expression changed drastically, the intention to retreat rose in his heart.

From what had happened to him, even though there was an extraordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator leading their team, they still ended up in such a tragic state. It was very possible that another existence at the level of Old Man Nightmare had also attacked last night.

"Commander Chen, in this situation, we are just seeking death if we go over."

An ancient voice sounded out, Elder Dou staggered out with two surviving Connate martial artists beside him.

"We're not in a good state either. The risk will be even greater if we continue to stay behind."

"That's right. I've used up most of the medicinal pills on me. I don't have enough supplies anymore."

The other two Connate experts looked troubled.

Song Shi became excited when he heard that there was a possibility for him to die.

Seeing that these people had no intention of continuing, he suddenly realized that they would probably pay him more if he stayed on, right?

Chen Yiling was very understanding and said, "If you can investigate the situation and obtain information that can gain the approval of the higher-ups, everyone will still be able to obtain at least three Connate Pills and one Foundation Establishment Pill. The more important the information, the more generous the reward."

This generous reward made Daoist Cai and the others' breathing quicken.

Song Shi muttered in his heart.

This was probably the remuneration that was originally prepared for hundreds of people. Now that there's not much of them left, these rewards seemed extremely generous.

"If everyone is willing, you can move on your own. As long as you tell me the key information you obtained within four hours, it will count towards your rewards."

Chen Yiling did not plan to go out again as well. At this time, she was the only one left who could communicate with the headquarters. If anything happened to her, there would really be no more source of information for the headquarters.

"Little Brother Song, I think you're a real talent. Why don't we form a party and go together?"

Daoist Cai looked at Song Shi with a smile. He had seen how Song Shi could turn invisible. This investigation was practically perfect for someone like him.

As long as he obtained some information, he would be able to obtain benefits.

"I think it's safer to be alone."

Song Shi rejected the other party's invitation.

Elder Dou took a deep look at Song Shi.

This young man's cultivation was inferior to theirs, but he was in the best condition at the moment. Now, it seemed that he dared to take the risk to investigate, it was either that he was really not simple and had a few tricks up his sleeve or that he was a fool.

Chen Yiling took out a few special communication talismans, "This is a one-use low-level communication talisman. It can only send messages within a short radius of 15 kilometers. Those who are willing to take up the quest can come and take one."

Song Shi glanced at it. To be honest, he was not interested in Connate Pills and Foundation Establishment Pills. "Can the rewards be exchanged for other resources?"

"Of course. Just exchange it according to the corresponding value."

Chen Yiling nodded.

"Give me one."

Song Shi took out a low-level communication talisman and asked, "Which direction is the main force supposed to be at?"

"Northwest of here."

Upon hearing this, Song Shi turned around and left.

He had obtained a lot of information about the Thousand Poisons Mountain Range from Hei Duzi's memories. Based on their current location, it was very easy to find the target he was looking for.

"It should be very dangerous there. I should reset the resurrection location."

Song Shi's gaze landed on the bushes along the way. He decided to randomly choose a hidden place as a resurrection point after walking for a while.

"Fellow Daoist Song, please wait!"

A voice appeared behind him.

Daoist Cai took out something that he thought could cause Song Shi's heart to waver.

"…"

When Song Shi heard this, his face twitched.

He could not help but think of Shen Gongbao from 'The Investiture of the Gods' [1.'The Investiture of the Gods' is a famous classic in China] . In that world, those who were given this term usually encountered a tragic downfall.

Are there really karmic weapons in this world? But then again, what's worse than death, right??

"Fellow Daoist Song, I have a secret Turtle Breathe Technique, which allows me to play dead perfectly. Are you interested in it?"

Daoist Cai took out something that he thought could cause Song Shi's heart to waver.

"…"

Song Shi did not know what to say, but he was indeed interested in this Turtle Breathe Technique .

Sometimes, it was not suitable for him to move immediately when he was revived. This secret technique would be useful.

"You're not honest. Forget about it."

He was not too tempted by this thing. At the very most, he could exchange this with his rewards from the Demon Slayers Division. He did not believe that there were such things as unattainable secret techniques.

"It seems that you still have some prejudice against me. Actually, I'm a good person. It's just that I didn't have the chance to show it just now."

Daoist Cai felt regretful. He rolled his eyes and said, "How about this? If there's any news, share it with me and I'll give you the secret technique. How's this deal?"

"That can be considered."

Song Shi did not refuse this offer. With the Invisibility Talisman, he could indeed find out a lot of information easily.

"That's great. These are the communication runes I have prepared. Fellow Daoist Song will definitely be able to investigate many secrets by being invisible. When you do, you can give me some and let me exchange it for a Foundation Establishment Pill."

Daoist Cai smiled and handed over the contact method.

Song Shi glanced at this guy and prepared to negotiate their deal.

"Is your Turtle Breathe Technique really worth a Foundation Establishment Pill?"

"It's about there. This is a top-notch Daoist secret technique! Fellow Daoist, you definitely won't lose out."

"Alright, we'll see how it goes then."

After Song Shi left, Daoist Cai turned around and chased after the two Connate experts from the other side. "Fellow Daoists, please wait. I heard that you have consumed a lot of supplies. I happen to have many pills and talismans here. I wonder if you are interested in exchanging them for information?"

86 Nine Nether Divine Body

After Song Shi walked for a while, the vegetation gradually grew taller. Soon, it was filled with large trees that were twenty to thirty feet tall.

A primordial aura immediately enveloped him,there was even a fog between the plants that condensed and did not disperse.

After walking for a few miles, he encountered a huge tree that was more than a thousand feet tall. It looked especially spectacular.

He looked up in surprise and found a huge mud ball hanging on the tree trunk. There was a buzzing sound echoing, and many egg-sized black hornets were flying about.

"Holy sh*t, such a huge hornet. One would be enough to sting someone to death!"

He clicked his tongue in wonder. "As expected of the Thousand Poisons Mountain Range. To encounter such a dangerous poisonous creature at even the periphery."

"It's obviously extremely dangerous to be here. This place is not bad."

He set the resurrection point under the nest of hornets.

With such a huge hornet's nest, there shouldn't be anyone here.

Just as he thought that no one would come and provoke the hornets' nest, a glowing stone came crashing down.

Crack!

The ball of mud, which was bigger than a house, was smashed into pieces and fell to the ground. The stone landed on the ground first.

Song Shi took a closer look. It was actually a spirit stone.

Just as he was stunned by the sight.

Woosh~

A buzzing sound erupted, and a black cloud suddenly surged out of the broken hornet's nest. It circled in the air again and again furiously.

"…"

Song Shi was speechless. Was somebody so bored that they chose to smash as hornets nest?

He quickly glanced at the person who threw the spirit stones.

In the sky, a huge black ship floated by.

This ship had an antique appearance and was nearly a thousand feet long. It was shaped like a big fish and had a loft on it. It felt like an aircraft carrier.

However, this thing was not a product of technology. Instead, it was a special Dharma treasure of the cultivation world. Its surface was engraved with mysterious and cold runes that formed a complicated Array Formation.

His gaze shifted and he quickly discovered a little girl in a black short skirt at the bow of the ship. The latter was tossing another spirit stone down. The culprit was none other than this person.

Ads by Pubfuture

Upon closer inspection, this girl was as delicate as an elf. However, she was an evil elf. As she was throwing down the stones, she appeared extremely lively, like a blooming spider lily in the netherworld.

Her eyes were pitch-black and sparkling. Her eyebrows were curved and her skin was fairer than snow. It made her cherry lips look even redder and was quite eye-catching. Her red lips were like a crimson winter plum against the snow.

However, no matter how beautiful she was, it could not hide the fact that she was up to no good.

At this moment, this little girl with a strange temperament was smiling as she looked at the angry Song Shi. Her exposed calves and feet were white and flawless as they swayed happily.

"Whose brat does this belong to? Why is nobody disciplining her? Don't you know that throwing things at high altitudes is very dangerous?"

Song Shi pointed at this baffling girl and complained.

"Hehe, are you very angry? Come to the boat and hit me."

After being scolded by Song Shi, the girl smiled happily like a little demon and started to provoke Song Shi.

"…"

Song Shi looked at the distance between them. He had yet to learn how to fly on a sword so he could not fly up, even if he really went up, he would not be able to win her either.

However, he would not lose. He braced himself and said, "If you have the ability, come down and I will beat you up until you are crying for mercy."

"You're so interesting. You still have the time to scold me. Shouldn't you be running away right now? The poisonous hornets are coming to sting you."

The girl giggled. It sounded crisp, but it also had a demonic quality to it which made one's hair stand on end.

At this moment, Song Shi realized that something was wrong. The light above his head suddenly dimmed.

Buzz buzz!

A large cloud of hornets pounced on him under the tree.

"F*ck, little girl, don't let me catch you, or I'll beat your butt until you cry!"

Song Shi did not expect hornets to come to him instead of taking revenge on this girl. He gloomily spewed a harsh sentence, turned around and ran.

Just as he dodged, the black cloud swept past a big tree.

Immediately, the tree trunk became full of holes. Then, with a sizzling sound, it was corroded until it turned black. Then, the entire tree trunk broke with a crack.

Song Shi's expression changed. He did not know if his Dharma Body could withstand being stung by this thing.

If he could not withstand it but did not die for a while, it would be too tragic of a death.

He quickly used the Phantom image Steps and four shadows appeared. They shuttled through the forest and greatly dispersed the pursuit of the poisonous hornets.

Soon, Song Shi was engulfed by the dense fog. A portion of the poisonous hornets did not catch up to him and circled around for a while before returning back.

On the black ship, the girl's smile turned into dissatisfaction, "He ran so fast. I wanted to see him stung into a sieve."

With just one sentence, he could tell that she was not a normal person.

"Miss Youyou, we have to go. This time, we didn't follow the rules and killed many people from the Great Qian Dynasty. The Spiritual Kings of the realm will probably come over in a fit of anger and take revenge!"

An old man in linen clothes walked out of the pavilion on the ship and said respectfully to the girl.

If Song Shi was here, he would have been able to recognize the old man as Old Man Nightmare.

This old man that many cultivators feared was actually so polite to such a little girl at this very moment. If someone who didn't know the situation saw this, their jaws would probably drop.

"Grandpa Meng, can't we play a little longer? I just found an interesting toy."

...

Lu Youyou kicked her legs, pouted her red lips and wheedled at the old man.

"Miss, we really cannot. I have to ensure your safety."

Old Man Nightmare smiled bitterly, "Just killing some outstanding young people from the Demon Slayers Division this time was already enough to make them furious. If they knew that a newborn Nine Nether Divine Body like you is here. I'm afraid there will be really big trouble."

"Alright, let's go. We'll play next time we meet this person."

Lu Youyou nodded regretfully. She jumped up from the side of the boat and flew towards the attic without touching the ground.

Song Shi was chased for a while before he managed to get rid of all the hornets. He turned around and raised his middle finger at the sky, "Little girl, you'd better not let me catch you. Otherwise, I'll let you know what discipline is."

Angrily, he kicked a rock. The head-sized rock flew out and hit a humanoid object.

His eyes narrowed. Through the fog, he found many dried corpses lying around. They all exhibited traces of combat . Although it seemed to have happened not long ago, there was no blood at all.

Song Shi felt his blood run cold.

These corpses couldn't have died from being leeched, right? He hated suffering this kind of death the most.

With a wave of his hand, a circle of wind formed under his palm. It blew away a lot of the fog with a heat wave, revealing a larger radius.

...

Numerous corpses lay on the ground in a mess. Weapons, flags and horses were mixed in. Iron pots and food spillage could be seen lying around beside the tattered tent.

"Caw, caw!"

At this moment, a few crows were alarmed by the sudden wave of hot wind. They flew up and let out dissatisfied croaks as they stared coldly at Song Shi.

A dried corpse beside him suddenly rolled its eyes. A blood-colored worm crawled out. Its tentacles swayed in the air for a moment before retreating.

"Could this be the army that suppressed our rebellion?

Song Shi muttered, "From the looks of it, they were really wiped out."

87 I Have a Contract With the Zombie

After scanning the entire area , Song Shi realized that the entire mountain was filled with corpses. Everyone had died miserably.

"These guys are basically just ordinary soldiers. Normally, they wouldn't die so strangely even in battles. But now so many of them have died. Could it be that the cultivators violated the rules and attacked them?"

Song Shi frowned.

In the Great Qian Dynasty, it was forbidden for cultivators above the Postnatal realm and the mid-stage Qi Refinement realm to kill ordinary people on a large scale. The Postnatal martial artists below were not forbidden because more ordinary people could be surrounded and killed.

In fact, even if he didn't know the laws of the Great Qian Dynasty through Hei Duzi's memories and according to common sense, the rule should be that a cultivator can only fight another cultivator, while ordinary people can only fight amongst each other.

Even if both sides had cultivators along with the ordinary soldiers, logically speaking, they would not attack each other so casually. Even if they did, cultivators wouldn't lay their hands so easily on ordinary people either.

However, hundreds of thousands of troops seemed to have died in this place overnight. The cultivators that had attacked them must have surpassed the Extraordinary Foundation Establishment realm. Perhaps it was Old Man Nightmare and the other Golden Core realm kings who had attacked.

"They've completely broken the rules. Now, the Great Qian Dynasty Officials won't follow the rules anymore. They're going to start killing cultivators too…"

Song Shi saw that the situation was rapidly deteriorating. The world was going to be in complete chaos!

He walked over and observed the situation then he realized that many people were in various postures of struggling before they died. Some were reaching out to grab something and some had crawled forward in all fours with all their might…

Without exception, the soldiers who all died did not manage to get too far away. They must have been tricked by something and could not escape in time.

"I'm afraid that the rebel army pretended to be unassuming in order to lure the enemy in and then used the poisonous environment of the Thousand Poisons Mountain Range to destroy them all in one go!"

Song Shi deduced what had happened. He lowered his body and took out a silver needle to insert into the dried corpse. A wisp of poisonous gas leaked out.

"Poisoned!"

He checked a few more people and all of them showed signs of poisoning.

He discovered some small red dots beside one person's ear. He thought of something and injected a trace of Nine Yang True Energy into this person.

The power of extreme yang immediately made the dry corpse's head turn red. A green spider with a red tail could not take it anymore and quickly crawled out. It wanted to escape, but it was slapped by Song Shi.

The power of fire immediately turned it into a pile of charcoal dust. It landed on the ground and trembled before dying on the spot.

"There's also the use of poisonous insects. Looks like it's not as simple as poison gas."

Song Shi was deep in thought as he stared blankly at the thick fog in the mountain.

This was the Thousand Poisons Mountain Range. As long as one had the means, they could easily summon all kinds of poisonous creatures and create a large-scale poisonous attack of both gas and creatures.

If he was not wrong, the enemy first used the poisonous fog to disarm the army, and then used the poisonous insects to kill those who were still alive.

How could ordinary soldiers withstand these two fatal blows?

This was the first time he felt that in a world with cultivators, wars were even more cruel than what he knew of.

"Shit, the rebel army has achieved such a great victory, Silken City is probably in trouble!"

He came back to his senses and hurriedly took out his Message Talisman, preparing to return to his family after telling Chen Yiling the news.

"Little brother, I advise you not to spread any news. Wait for them to check it out themselves."

A strange and shriveled voice appeared behind Song Shi, causing him to have goosebumps. He did not dare to move rashly.

He turned around and saw a mummy looking at him expressionlessly with red flames in its eyes.

The dried corpse wore simple clothes and had a jade hairpin stuck in its head. Its skin was red and it emitted a scorching aura. It was clearly not a Normal soldier and its outer appearance looked more like a scholar.

But it was definitely not a normal person!

Not to mention that he didn't notice it when it sneakily approached, just the fluctuations it emitted at this moment already gave his divine sense a huge feeling of pressure. His mind was heavy, as if he was being pressed down by a mountain.

"What is this? It doesn't look like a human, nor does it look like a so-called zombie."

Song Shi was shocked. The zombies he had encountered before were all cold. Why was this thing so hot like a furnace?

"Ah~"

A faint scream came from afar. Song Shi's expression changed. Could it be that the other guys were in danger too?

"Little guy, don't be surprised. I'm a corpse cultivator from the Hiderigami lineage.1 I'm not an ordinary low-level zombie, nor am I a zombie from the other lineages. Naturally, I'm not cold."

The scholar-like dried corpse seemed to have noticed his surprise and took the initiative to introduce himself.

"Hiderigami!"

Song Shi was shocked. Hei Duzi did not know much about these aspects in his memories, but he was wary of such existences.

Because his poison and Gu did not have much effect on such things and people.

"That's right, Hiderigami. We belong to one of the four major Corpse Paths. I've already reached the low-level Crimson Demon realm. It's roughly equivalent to the Golden Core realm or the martial arts king among human cultivators."

The mummy nodded. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, as if he was smiling at Song Shi.

"…"

Song Shi did not know what to say. He was shocked to meet such a special existence at this dreadful timing.

Seeing that the other party did not move, he asked in surprise, "Why don't you just kill me? Why are you talking so much nonsense?"

With the other party's strength, there was no need for him to warn Song Shi to not inform the others. Wouldn't it be more convenient if he just killed him?

"It's mainly I find you very outstanding."

The scholar who called himself a Crimson Demon cultivator stiffly squeezed out a smile, "Your aptitude is not bad. Are you interested in joining my Heavenly Corpse Sect and becoming a Hiderigami who can live forever, fly in the sky and burrow into the ground?"

"…"

Ads by Pubfuture

Song Shi's face twitched and he was left rather speechless.

What the hell? He actually met someone who wanted him to become a zombie.

This was really a big and strange world. There were all kinds of strange people and things.

"I'm sorry, I'm not interested. I'm still young and haven't enjoyed the beauty of the mortal world enough."

...

He refused immediately. What a joke. Only a fool would want to become a zombie.

Not to mention, he was already immortal to begin with. Even if he was not immortal, he would not be interested in becoming something that was neither human nor ghost.

Was being a human that horrible?

Why would he not want to be a human given how beautiful girls like Liu Ruxue and Chen Yiling were?

He really wanted to ask if there was something wrong with this guy's head. Was there really any living person in the world who wanted to be turned into a corpse and become a Hiderigami?

"Don't be in a hurry to refuse. Because you're still very young, it's normal for you to be reluctant to leave the mortal world. You might change your mind in the future."

The Crimson Demon smiled, "How about this? Let's sign an agreement. In the future, if your corpse is still intact, can it be part of our Hiderigami lineage?"

"Why?"

Song Shi was a little dumbfounded. Was this guy so keen on buying his corpse?

"The competition is too intense. If the corpse of an outstanding person like you is still intact when you die in the future, the vampires will definitely fight for your corpses."

The Crimson Demon sighed. Song Shi was speechless and could only describe his current emotion with one word.

...

Damn!

He did not know whether to cry or laugh, "What if I don't die but become an immortal?"

"It's not that easy. If I could easily become an immortal, I wouldn't have chosen to become a zombie back then. You'll only understand when you reach the end of your lifespan with no hopes of breaking through."

The Crimson Demon shook his head, "You don't have to be in a hurry to refuse. Having this contract will only be beneficial to you. After all, not everyone will get the chance to have such a contract."

"What's in it for you?"

Song Shi was immediately interested in this agreement.

Since he did not need to fulfill anything in this contract. It would be a waste not to accept it.

Hence he began to not mind making a pact with the Hiderigami zombies.

" For one, other zombies like the Vampires won't be able to suck your blood. In addition, after the contract, you will successfully transform into a zombie when you reach the end of your lifespan. You won't have to wait for your soul to dissipate before transforming."

88 Imperishable Golden Body

"For example, since most zombies didn't directly transform after their death, they no longer are the same person as they were, alive. As for vampires that transformed after being bitten by other vampires, they would be controlled by others and become their vassals."

Surrounded by the strange environment that was littered with corpses, The Crimson Demon continued talking about the promised benefits of the contract. "As for you, if you accept the contract of the Hiderigami lineage, you can retain your consciousness by directly transforming into a zombie when you die. Your body will thus be immortal and as long as you are not killed, you can basically live forever."

Song Shi still was not very impressed by these terms. After all, the system had already guaranteed an immortal body for him.

He pursed his lips, "Everything you have mentioned is something I have no control over. What if I get beaten to death after I transform into a zombie?"

"Well you're not losing out if you accept this contract anyways, are you?"

The Crimson Demon retorted, "If not for the fact that you cultivated a Dharma Body at such a young age, I wouldn't have wasted my breath on convincing you to accept my contract."

A realization dawned upon Song Shi. He probed, "What if I still refuse?"

"Then I will have to kill you. After that, I will bury your corpse underground and wait for you to turn into a zombie."

The Crimson Demon's calm words and cruel actions made Song Shi break out in cold sweat.

He was not afraid of death, but he was afraid that this guy would keep an eye out on his corpse.

The resurrection point he setup was not far from here. He did not know if the other party would be able to discover it.

"Why don't you give me a token of yours? If I get an inclination to join in the future, I'll look for you."

Song Shi felt that he was not in a position to refuse and decided to take a step back.

"No way. People like you are very effective against the other disciples of the Heavenly Corpse Sect. If I let you take my token and secretly kill other corpse cultivators, wouldn't I be your scapegoat?"

The Crimson Demon directly refused and said coldly, "Either you agree, or you turn into a corpse on the spot and I plant you into the ground as a seedling to become my zombie."

"…"

Good lord, he is so blunt in revealing what he wants. He really is an old demon. Song Shi thought then asked curiously, "How old is Senior?"

The latter was a little unhappy. He felt that this kid was changing the topic again.

However, he still answered, "I was a cultivator from the previous dynasty and had cultivated for five hundred years then. After that, I have been a corpse cultivator for almost two thousand years."

"…"

Song Shi did not know how many times he had been rendered speechless. He commented awkwardly, "Senior's cultivation speed…"

Ads by Pubfuture

"What's with that look?"

The Crimson Demon glared at Song Shi. "Young man, you're really ignorant. To have an undying body in the path of corpse cultivation, I'm destined to bear the shortcoming of slow cultivating speed. It's already not bad if I can break through one realm in a thousand years."

Song Shi muttered in his heart, "It's still too low. My immortal body from the system can improve faster than this."

He pretended to be enlightened and said, "I see. I wonder how I should address you, senior?"

"Su Tian."

The Crimson Demon said his name and said impatiently, "I can't stand your nonsense anymore. Are you going to sign a contract with me or do you want to die?"

A ring of fire appeared on his body and his powerful aura leaked out, it was so strong that Song Shi nearly fell to the ground.

"Forget it, I'll just force you!"

Su Tian could not be bothered to seek Song Shi's consent any longer. He took out a golden scroll and opened it. There were dense runes engraved inside of it, forming a strange mark.

After he chanted the incantation, the runes and marks immediately lit up, turning into a blood snake that flew out and shot straight towards Song Shi's heart.

Song Shi had no time to dodge. After the blood snake entered his body, he felt a strange force spreading, making his blood boil.

"It's so hot!"

His entire body was red, and a circle of powerful Qi and a portion of his blood was stimulated. There seemed to be an endless stream of power gushing out of his heart, making him feel like he was about to explode.

Instinctively, his Vajra Dharma Body erupted with might. A circle of extreme Yang power was released, seeking to expel the strange power.

"Good kid, you're actually cultivating a Diamond Dharma Body which is top-notch in defense amongst the Dharma Bodies. No wonder your body is strong."

Su Tian nodded in appreciation. Seeing Song Shi trying to force out the power of the contract, he chuckled. "Don't waste your energy. This contract is made by too great of a power. Accept it obediently, it will be beneficial to you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Song Shi's own power was directly suppressed. Then, familiar runes suddenly appeared on his body and condensed into a strange mark in his heart.

When the contract left a mark on Song Shi's body, it emitted pure energy, making Song Shi feel as if he was being inflated from inside out. It was unbearable.

"Kid, you're quite lucky to have met me. You have to know that the power of the Hiderigami Dao is also extremely Yang and unyielding. Because of your own Yang nature, it does not directly conflict with you. If it were any other fellow, they would have suffered greatly."

Su Tian chanted again and the runes on Song Shi's body retracted and condensed in his heart. Then, the scorching power calmed down.

Song Shi panted heavily and sat down. He said weakly, "Didn't… Didn't you say that it was a contract? How can you force yourself on me? What kind of contract is this?"

"Who told you that the contract has to be approved by you? As long as I am strong, enslaving your soul is not a problem."

Su Tian placed his hands behind his back and said indifferently, "Remember, if you need to fight with your life in the future, you can use the power of the contract by silently chanting the word 'Ba'. It can allow your power to erupt and your strength will double."

"There's such a benefit?"

Song Shi immediately perked up.

"Naturally… Oh, if you don't want to become a zombie alive, don't use it recklessly. After all, the power of the contract is a special curse. If you use it too much, it will deepen the corrosion of some of the spells that have been bound on you and you will become a zombie faster than expected."

Su Tian mentioned the negative effects.

This immediately made Song Shi unhappy because he thought he had another trump card to use. After he heard this, his expression turned bitter.

This contract was a double-edged sword. As expected, there was nothing normal or good about this kind of person.

"Don't mind it too much. You'll die sooner or later. Even if you don't die, you'll become decrepit. You'll be grateful to me in the future."

Su Tian smiled, "If you can grow old normally, remember, when you're old, your Qi will deteriorate and your body will weaken immensely. Remember to come to us in time. Otherwise, without our help, some unclean 'things' will take the opportunity to destroy your consciousness and snatch your body away."

"Can I get rid of this thing?"

Song Shi frowned.

...

"If you're strong enough, you can, but I don't think you can do it."

Su Tian chuckled. He thought of something and threw out a slightly gray golden book. "This body tempering technique will be very difficult for you to cultivate but it has no flaws. If you have the ability to cultivate it to perfection, the curse will be nothing to you."

With that said, Su Tian pointed at the communication talisman in Song Shi's hand and turned it into ashes. Then, with a flash of fire, he disappeared.

"Kid, I hope you can come to the Heavenly Corpse Sect alive in the future."

The untethered voice echoed in Song Shi's ears, making him a little dazed.

"What's going on? I was actually forced into a contract by a zombie…"

Song Shi did not know whether to laugh or cry. He lowered his head and picked up the golden book. When he saw the large words on the cover, his pupils constricted.

Imperishable Golden Body!

Song Shi looked at the dusty ancient book and was stunned again.

"No way, there's such a powerful cultivation technique? It's fake, it's definitely fake. It's just that its name is impressive…"

Su Tian, who had already flown more than ten kilometers, turned around and muttered, "I've finally thrown out the useless cultivation technique. This kid definitely won't be able to cultivate it, but he will be able to polish his body very well while trying to. When he turns into a zombie, he might be able to revitalize my Hiderigami lineage!"

...

89 Recruiting People Everywhere

Song Shi had yet to realize that his aptitude was getting better and better and he was already being valued by many masters.

He flipped through the golden book and found that the first page was blocked by a strange pressure. It took a lot of effort to open it.

"It doesn't look like a fake…"

Song Shi's thoughts immediately changed from experiencing this strange phenomenon but he was not in a hurry to read the content on the first page. Instead, he flipped to the second page. However no matter how hard he tried, he could not open it.

!!

"Is it that powerful? My strength is at the level of the strength of ten elephants but I can't even do anything to a page of this golden book."

Song Shi was dumbfounded and could only read the contents of the first page.

First chapter of the Imperishable Golden Body.

Primordial Chaos Chapter!

"Heaven and Earth evolved from the Primordial Chaos. The Primordial Chaos was one, the origin of vitality, the physical body transformed from the Primordial Chaos, and this was the beginning of body refinement…"

Song Shi looked at the content and felt that it was impressive. He could not help but be intrigued.

He read it carefully. Even with his Comprehension, he felt that the content was mysterious and unfathomable.

The content of the first chapter was basically about treating the body as a newborn universe, constantly absorbing various powers from the origins of the primordial world to temper the body and build a solid foundation.

In his opinion, this was the section on Foundation Establishment, but it also covered many other realms. At the very least, information on Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment were all here.

"This is really something."

Song Shi keenly sensed that this cultivation technique was indeed not simple. It was worthy of its title.

"If he's so powerful, wouldn't it be difficult for him to be beaten to death given his cultivation?"

He was a little worried and immediately shook his head. "I can't keep thinking about farming deaths. It's meaningless if I deliberately do it. It's better to cultivate the traditional way obediently."

After putting away the golden book, Song Shi was not in a hurry.

This cultivation technique seemed very difficult. He had not finished cultivating the other cultivation techniques and had limited time and energy. He had to cultivate his other techniques to perfection as much as possible first.

He had long drawn the Connate Pure Yang Art but Song Shi was not in a hurry to cultivate it because he had cultivated too many cultivation techniques currently and did not have enough time and energy.

He turned around and took out another Communication Talism, activating it and telling Daoist Cai about the situation.

As for whether the other party could get the reward, he was not interested.

From what Chen Yiling said, as long as he provided information, there would more or less be benefits for him to reap.

After doing this, he stepped on the stone and leaped to the next location.

Since they had also lost contact with Sikong Ya and the others. They did not know what was going on at all.

After advancing deeper into the Black Poison Mountain Range for a while, Song Shi discovered traces of battle. He carefully stopped and probed with his divine sense.

Then, his pupils constricted and he disappeared in a flash. He appeared in a valley, only to see shattered bones and clothes on the ground.

Judging from the number of bones, the number of people who died should be in the double digits, many tokens had also fallen to the ground.

Wood, iron… silver!

Song Shi walked over and picked up a silver token. He sighed. "Sikong Ya must have been doomed!"

He found three silver tokens and picked them up. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly felt dizzy. When he looked down, his hands had already turned black.

Wisps of black gas quickly invaded his body like maggots attaching to his bones.

"It's poisonous…"

Song Shi reacted. Even with his Physique, he only managed to take two steps before he could not take it anymore. As the world spun, he fell to the ground and foamed at the mouth.

"Hehe, to be able to take two steps even after my poison, you're quite capable!"

Just as he was about to die, Song Shi vaguely heard a voice. A black-robed man appeared in the distance like a ghost.

The clothes he was wearing had a hat that covered most of his head. His exposed lips were slightly black and his eyes were green.

"You have been poisoned to death. Poison Resistance 20!"

"You have absorbed strength from death and obtained 10 Freedom Attribute Points!"

"You will be resurrected in three seconds!"

[Resurrection location has been set. You will be resurrected at the designated location!]

Three seconds later, Song Shi's body disappeared.

The green eyes of the black-robed man in the distance changed. He coldly locked onto Song Shi's position. "Good kid, you have a method to save your life? Is it a Substitution Talisman?"

Surprisingly, his eyes were like venomous snakes as his divine sense spread out like a cold wind.

Fortunately, this place was quite far from Song Shi's resurrection point. After Song Shi was revived, he pretended to be dead and evaded detection.

This made the black-robed green-eyed man fall silent, and a thoughtful look appeared in his eyes. "Could it be that this person is a disciple of a large faction and not the Great Qian government? If not, why is he here at this time? He's probably the descendant of a King from the Demon Slayers Division. I have offended yet another powerful person…"

Suddenly, a loud sound sounded from afar, like a sudden clap of thunder.

He immediately raised his head. His sharp gaze pierced through the large void and crossed more than a hundred kilometers. He saw a fire cloud erupt in the distance.

"That seems to be the Heavenly Ghost Sect's Great Kraken Ship. These guys are too arrogant. They're driving the ship in plain sight. Do they really think that everyone is blind? However, to dare to attack the Demon slayers with such a war Dharma treasure, it must be the powerful fellows of the Great Qian Dynasty who provoked them first!"

As he muttered to himself, he glanced at the bones and tokens on the ground. Then, he sprinkled some more things onto the ground which turned into colorless and odorless poison.

Then, he looked into the distance and smiled coldly. "Although the few major sects of the Holy Church have joined forces this time, the Godly Qian army of the Great Qian Dynasty is still a little too strong. The Zenith Heaven Guards are also like rabid dogs that won't let go. According to our agreement, we'll help them in order to temporarily avoid conflict with them!"

He formed a hand seal and turned into a ball of green poisonous smoke. With a bang, the smoke exploded and disappeared.

At the same time, Song Shi sensed that the danger had temporarily dissipated and got up from the pile of fallen leaves.

Then, he realized that there was a ball of burning clouds in the sky and sensed that powerful figures were colliding.

...

"Old Man Nightmare, I think you've grown bored of being alive. How dare you attack a group of Qi Refinement Connate cultivators!"

Amidst the rumbling roar, a huge Fire Spear appeared within the burning clouds.

Song Shi could immediately tell that this was the Blazing Sun King he had seen before. Opposite him, a gray cloud was floating.

"Blazing Sun King, the Great Qian Dynasty has gone against the trend and is at its end. The order of the world has collapsed. Why are you still so concerned about such rules?"

A strange and erratic voice came from within the gray cloud.

"Ridiculous. How dare you pretend to be reasonable when you don't abide by the rules. I'll kill you today. Let's see how many people will dare to mess around after this!"

The Blazing Sun King transformed into a flaming man. His spear shot out like a dragon as he charged over without hesitation.

The gray cloud was immediately engulfed by the flames. An old man holding a white bone rod was revealed as the gray cloud was pierced through by the flames and started to retreat in the air.

"Blazing Sun King, you're very suitable to join my Hiderigami lineage. Don't follow the fallen Great Qian Dynasty anymore. Come to my Heavenly Corpse Sect and I'll bestow you the position of an elder."

A familiar sound rang out causing Song Shi's face to twitch. A fire cloud appeared in the distant sky again. It was extremely Yang and firm, but there was a strange aura. It was the aura of destruction and death, completely different from the Blazing Sun King's fire power.

"This old man is recruiting people everywhere. Is there such a shortage of people for his sect?"

...

Song Shi cursed silently. He did not foolishly stay to watch the ongoing fight anymore. Instead, he quickly slipped away.

He didn't want to watch the show.

At this moment, a piercing phoenix cry resounded , piercing through to the nine heavens.

Crimson flames appeared and transformed into a huge fire phoenix flying over to the commotion. Then, a human voice sounded.

"Even the low-key Heavenly Corpse Sect has joined the Demonic Sect. You guys have made such a huge ruckus!"

90 Battle of the Kings

A middle-aged man walked out from the fire phoenix and stared at Su Tian.

"It can't be helped. Everyone will take turns kicking the man who is down*. If I don't interfere, I would not get a share of the pie in the future."

Su Tian's expression was calm as he said indifferently, "Furthermore, I'm a cultivator of the Pre-Qin Dynasty. In my eyes, you guys are the real rebels."

"Well said. The Great Qian Dynasty now are people like us. Do you really think we can't replace you?"

!!

Amidst loud laughter, a slender and handsome young man flew into the sky. His eyes were soft but his temperament was evil.

At this moment, he was in high spirits. He held a tri-colored feather fan in his hand and questioned the other party with an overbearing aura, "Virtuous Phoenix King, do you think that's right?"

Virtuous Phoenix King!

When Song Shi, who was running away, heard this name, he subconsciously looked up.

This person also had the power of the Fire, but his power leaned towards gentleness. The Dharmic power phenomenon on his body was very magical. He actually could form a Phoenix and hence should be relatively strong.

"So this Phoenix man is actually Chang Sunji's father?"

Song Shi was speechless, "I need to hurry up and escape. Although he might not discover that Chang Sunji's death was caused by me just to be safe, it's better to stay away for now."

He sped up and slipped into the forest, running into the distance.

The Virtuous Phoenix King didn't answer yes or no, because no matter how he answered, he might fall into the other party's trap.

Instead, his eyes revealed a lofty look. He took out a jade brush and said with a murderous aura, "Jiu Yu, if you dare to deceive the public with your demonic words, you will be executed!"

The jade-colored brush-shaped Dharma treasure quickly enlarged, releasing dense silver threads that wrapped around the young man.

"You still dare to act domineering at a time like this? You really have a death wish!"

Jiu Yu laughed sinisterly and waved the tri-colored feather fan in his hand. A circle of a powerful gust of wind appeared.

Hu hu hu!

The gust of wind erupted.

The wind released by the feather fan was also divided into three colors. The white one had a sharp edge, the green one formed a wind blade, and the red one turned into flames.

This strange power of wind and fire bypassed the other party's silver threads and swept towards Virtuous Phoenix King with a shockingly powerful Aura.

The latter's expression changed. This fellow's Three Flowered Treasured Fan could actually counter his Silver Silk Jade Brush. If this continued, he would be at a disadvantage.

Without hesitation, he took out a silver pearl. Brilliant light bloomed and the gust of wind that approached him disappeared without a trace. The remaining attacks were also easily blocked by him.

" Wind Stability Bead!"

Jiu Yu's expression changed. He didn't expect this guy to be able to find such a rare Dharma treasure. It seemed that he had made ample preparations this time.

A smug expression appeared on Virtuous Phoenix King's face, "In front of the Wind Stability Bead, more than half of your Dharma treasures are useless. Die!"

He formed a hand seal with one hand and the red flames condensed into a huge Phoenix. This phoenix spread its wings and flew towards Jiu Yu with a scorching heat wave.

Jiu Yu could only hurriedly cast a spell to resist it. Then, he realized that the silver thread had already arrived beside him first and directly stabbed over, showing signs of piercing him into a sieve.

"Hmph!"

He did not expect to be at a disadvantage in a single exchange. A green light flashed on Jiu Yu's body, and he instantly retreated a thousand feet away, dodging the spider web-like silver threads that surrounded him and the subsequent fire phoenix attack.

However, after dodging the silver thread, the phoenix changed its direction and chased after him again.

At this moment, he now had ample space to deal with it. He formed a seal with both hands and a green tornado condensed, blowing out and sweeping the fire phoenix away.

The power of wind and fire gathered together, causing the resultant power to become even more violent. They destroyed each other and then with a bang, caused an explosion.

"Without the help of so many Dharma treasures, you would have died long ago!"

Jiu Yu looked at the Virtuous Phoenix King in disdain.

"If you hadn't run away quickly, you would have died just now!"

Virtuous Phoenix King strode forward with the Wind Stability Bead on his head and the Silver Silk Jade Brush in his hand. He looked down at Jiu Yu and said, "Since you all dare to gang up and kill 300,000 soldiers of our Great Qian Empire, you have to bear the wrath of our Great Qian Empire!"

"Hmph, just the two of you?"

Jiu Yu had a mocking expression. "Kill them before the rest of them come!"

"Do you think you can continue to gain the upper hand?"

Virtuous Phoenix King had a disdainful expression, "You're too full of yourself. This is still the Great Qian Empire after all!"

As soon as he finished speaking, spatial fluctuations appeared in the distance and a huge silver ancient starship appeared. On it stood a dense group of silver-armored soldiers.

In front of the many soldiers, three figures with powerful auras were staring at them.

"Oh no, the Godly Qian army is here!"

When Su Tian saw this, his expression changed. "Don't bother with them anymore. Once you're trapped by the Qian God Army's Heavenly Battle Formation, it'll be difficult for you to escape!"

Jiu Yu immediately said, "Let's go!"

"Why are you running? Every time we come, you're always hiding. What's the point?"

One of the people in front of the Godly Qian army raised his head. His gaze was like two piercing words as he stared at Jiu Yu.

"Damn it, Zenith Heaven King, wasn't this guy guarding the Imperial City? He actually came here!"

Jiu Yu, who had been calm just now, was clearly a little flustered. He hurriedly turned around and said, "Activate the Supreme Kraken Ship and leave immediately!"

"A bunch of rats that will never see the light of day. They run around every time they see us!"

Zenith Heaven king's tone was disdainful. He was wearing a white robe. His face was thin and expressionless. He had a cold temperament and carried seven long swords on his back. He looked like a sword box.

"These rats are quite bold. They actually dared to touch so many of our normal army this time!"

A middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and fierce eyes wearing silver armor on his left raised his hand. "Activate the attack Array Formation and blast their stupid fish boat down!"

...

The silver battleship shone brightly and began to charge up on powerful attacks…

At this moment, the Daoist on his right, who had his eyes closed and was wearing a Daoist robe, opened his eyes and said in surprise, "Eh, you actually dare to bring a newborn Nine Nether Divine Body over this time, you are being too generous to us."

"Nine Nether Divine Body?"

The Zenith Heaven King's gaze became even brighter, like a sword that was about to be unsheathed. "Very good. Since you killed the young people of the Demon Slayers Division's Fiend Eradicators. Today, I'll kill your core successor!"

Old Man Nightmare's expression darkened. "How dare you! Although you, the Zenith Heaven King, are known as the number one Sword King of the Great Qian Dynasty, Miss is the descendant of the Sect Master. If you dare to hurt Miss, you will definitely die!"

"If you old man has the ability, you can come and kill me directly!"

The Zenith Heaven King had a proud expression. He took a step forward and his sword sense soared into the sky.

Everyone's swords began to tremble.

Zheng zheng!

The seven swords on his back lit up at the same time and were all automatically pulled out. They instantly formed a sword formation and followed behind him to attack the Supreme Kraken Ship.

When the kings in the sky arrived, the battle became even more intense, Song Shi was not in the mood to watch any longer. This was because he had encountered a dense swarm of poisonous insects.

...

These things had appeared out of nowhere and had spread all over the mountain. And he, who had trypophobia, felt his scalp tingle.

"Damn it, they must have been summoned by the guy who used the poison just now!"

Song Shi released his Nine Yang True Energy, which turned into a circle of flames to block the poisonous insects.

Under normal circumstances, his strength was enough to make ordinary poisonous insects retreat. However, there were too many of them. There would always be some who were not afraid of death and crawled over. No matter how hard he tried, he could not kill them all.

"Don't I have a Poison Avoidance Pearl? Let me take it out and try!"

Song Shi touched the storage ring hidden in his chest and took out a green bead. Immediately, the surrounding poisonous insects avoided him as if he was a disgusting plague.
