382 Receiving the Fruit
In the canyon, the battle was already nearing its end.
The Mao Mountain Daoists suffered heavy casualties.
There were only three people left. They were Mommi, Ninth Uncle, and Daoist Thousand Cranes.
At this stage of the battle, everyone was heavily injured.
The night was approaching, and with the sudden storm, the Zombie King’s coffin, which had been silent for a long time, finally made a sound.
Crack!
A bolt of lightning streaked across the sky and struck the golden coffin of the Zombie King.
The golden coffin instantly exploded, and the Zombie King broke out of the coffin.
“Not good! This zombie has become a spirit.”
Seeing this, Ninth Uncle immediately became anxious. He no longer paid any attention to Mommi and rushed toward the Zombie King with his Peach Wood Sword.
“F*ck! Prepare the Corpse-Binding Rope.”
Daoist Thousand Cranes was the same.
When facing the zombie, the remaining three Daoists were surprisingly united.
If they didn’t get rid of this zombie, they were afraid that they would all die in this canyon.
Mommi naturally knew the severity of the matter and didn’t dare to be careless. She hurriedly rummaged through the bodies of his Senior and Junior Brothers to find magic tools to deal with the zombie.
Ninth Uncle and Daoist Thousand Cranes attacked the Zombie King from the left and right.
Soon, Mommi successfully found three Corpse-Binding Ropes.
“Senior Brothers, catch!”
He immediately threw the Corpse-Binding Ropes, and together with Ninth Uncle and Daoist Thousand Cranes, they formed a three-talent formation and linked the ropes together, trapping the Zombie King in the center.
“You two, hold on, wait for me to kill it,” shouted Daoist Thousand Cranes.
Then, he threw his Corpse-Binding Rope to Ninth Uncle.
He would let Ninth Uncle and Mommi hold the Zombie King.
Daoist Thousand Cranes, on the other hand, bit his middle finger and smeared his blood essence on the Peach Wood Sword.
Then, he flew up and pierced through the Zombie King’s body with his sword.
The Zombie King let out a shrill cry.
However, it didn’t suffer any injuries.
The result obviously stunned Daoist Thousand Cranes.
In this moment of daze, the Zombie King swung its arm and sent Daoist Thousand Cranes flying.
Daoist Thousand Cranes was sent flying for more than ten meters. After he landed on the ground, he kept spitting out blood.
“This zombie has already become a spirit. Ordinary Peach Wood Swords can’t hurt it. Junior Brother Thousand Cranes, use the black dog’s blood.
Ninth Uncle controlled the Corpse-Binding Rope to stop the Zombie King from moving as he spoke to Daoist Thousand Cranes.
“Alright.”
Daoist Thousand Cranes agreed and ran to his disciple’s corpse, taking out a gourd.
“Eh? Just this little?”
When Daoist Thousand Cranes splashed the black dog’s blood on the Zombie King, he realized that there was less than a small cup in the entire gourd.
At that moment, the Zombie King was completely enraged.
With a wave of its hand, it tore the Corpse-Binding Rope into pieces and immediately rushed in the direction of Ninth Uncle.
‘Damn it!’ cursed Ninth Uncle in his heart. He had just fought a bloody battle with his fellow disciples.
At this time, the three of them didn’t have much power left, so they had no way to deal with a Zombie King that had become a spirit.
“Martial Uncles, don’t resist anymore. Today, I want to borrow your blood essence to help my Master ascend to the immortal world. Please help me.”
Your voice suddenly came from the distance.
Mommi, Ninth Uncle, and Daoist Thousand Cranes were stunned. They all looked in the direction of the voice.
You and Shi Jian, who has already turned into a Corpse Devil, slowly walk out from the side.
“Eldest Senior Brother?”
Mommi was shocked and confused.
“No, he’s not Eldest Senior Brother.”
Daoist Thousand Cranes and Ninth Uncle’s faces were ashen.
The two of them were very powerful, so they could tell at a glance that Shi Jian was not their Senior Brother.
Although he still looked like Shi Jian, he was no longer a human.
Judging from the thick Corpse Qi around his body, it was obvious that their Senior Brother had become a corpse.
“Eldest Senior Brother, why do you practice such evil arts?” Daoist Thousand Cranes said with a pained expression.
In his heart, although Shi Jian was a stone slab, proud and uncouth, he was still a Senior Brother.
However, there was nothing wrong with such a person being the Mao Mountain’s Sect Leader.
Cultivators should be like this.
But now, the Mao Mountain’s Sect Leader had turned into a Corpse Devil.
Not only would they be ridiculed by the world, but they would also be too embarrassed to face the ancestral patriarch.
“Hmph, now that the Spiritual Qi is thin, it’s impossible to ascend. The only chance is to break through the Ascension Tribulation with the body of the Corpse Devil. So, my three Junior Brothers, I won’t be polite.”
Shi Jian was still clear-headed.
Even when he saw his Junior Brothers die, Shi Jian didn’t feel anything.
Compared to his ascension, everything else was a small matter.
“Hmph! Since that’s the case, Senior Brother, don’t blame me for killing you.”
Daoist Thousand Cranes didn’t say anything else. He took out his magic sword and charged at Shi Jian.
Shi Jian had just turned into a Corpse Devil, and although he was powerful, he was still not as strong as a Daoist like Daoist Thousand Cranes.
However, Shi Jian didn’t panic.
“Shaojian.”
You flew out in an instant and sent Daoist Thousand Cranes flying with your Divine Five Thunder Technique.
Mommi attacked with Ninth Uncle at the same time, but they were also blown away by your Thunder Fists.
You used your unparalleled strength to instantly injure three people.
“Master, you can start sucking their blood now,” you said respectfully and then stood there in silence.
Shi Jian came to his Mommi’s side in a hurry.
“Senior Brother, let me go! I beg you to let me goQ I have a lot of money! Ah—”
No matter how hard Mommi begged for mercy, Shi Jian ignored him, bit his neck, and started to absorb his blood essence.
Mommi’s body quickly shriveled up at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In just a short while, he turned into a dried corpse.
“Haha! Shaojian, this method is indeed effective. Just Mommi alone has doubled my strength!” Shi Jian shouted excitedly after he finished absorbing Mommi’s blood essence.
A single Mommi had allowed his cultivation to increase so much.
With so many Daoist bodies, it was enough to push Shi Jian’s realm to an unimaginable height.
Ninth Uncle wasn’t afraid of death. Instead, he said to Shi Jian with regret, “Eldest Senior Brother, when Master was still alive, he warned you many times not to go astray. Why did you still choose this path in the end?”
“Hmph, don’t make such sarcastic remarks. That old man was biased. Otherwise, why would he give you the treasure that he used to deal with me after he died?”
