617 Special Corpse

After giving Ouyang Jingxin, Wang Poqiong, and Lin Nutao three bottles of special Hundred Herbs Potions, Chen Xiaobei marched forward to the darkness that laid in front of the Carcass Horde Formation with Niu Niu and Nyu Nyu. On the other hand, Lin Qisi was still suffering from the Needles of Damnation. Chen Xiaobei could not care less about him. The best part about this item was inflicting pain on one's body without killing the person.

Lin Qisi would definitely wish for a quick death instead of being tortured by the excruciating pain. All Chen Xiaobei cared about was making sure Lin Qisi would stay alive and that the pain would fry his brain.

At the deepest part of the shadows, a hidden ladder was presented in front of Chen Xiaobei. After climbing a thousand steps down the ladder, everything in front of him changed completely. He could see two stone pillars that looked like beasts standing right in front of him. With the light that came from the burning torch on top of the stone pillars, the whole place was lit up.

In between the stone pillars was a huge white door. A yellow paper talisman could be seen stuck between the crack of the door. On top of it was a stone table with the words, Palace of the Living Dead engraved on it.

"Such concentrated Yin Qi! Are your friends inside?"

"Yes. They are all inside!"

"The guards here had been defeated by you. All you need to do is tear off the talisman and open the door. However, you have to prepare yourself before you open the door. You might freak out by what you see later."

"I don't think so! I'm actually quite bold!"

With a smile on his face, Chen Xiaobei strode to the door and tore the talisman off the door.

*Creak*

The white door shook. It was as if something from inside was trying to break free. Despite his astonishment, Chen Xiaobei stayed put. He regained his composure and attempted to push the door open slowly.

"Oh… Oh my god…"

Though he did all he could to prepare himself, the thing that he saw behind the doors shook him to to the core. Immediately, his breathing quickened as he unconsciously took three steps back. He did not expect to see a living hell behind the door! Forty-nine children's bodies were kneeling in front of the door.

Their eyes were wide open but there was nothing inside their eye sockets. Forty-nine pairs of empty sockets were staring at Chen Xiaobei. Even a powerful elite like Chen Xiaobei could feel his skin prickling all over. The most unusual thing was that their bodies did not decay even though their skin was grayish black. Lines and lines of crimson talisman inscriptions were written all over their bodies. Chen Xiaobei could never fathom sorrowful and sinister scene if he did not see it with his own eyes.

"Savior, are you alright?"

"I'm fine… Free your friends."

With all the experience that he gathered throughout the years, he managed to regain his composure faster than most of the ordinary people.

"Guys! Come on out! Our savior had defeated the Bull-Headed Demon! We are now free!"

*Swoosh*

*Swoosh*

Suddenly, wind started to ravage the place. One by one, all their spirits flew out from their bodies.

"This is great! We are finally free! No more being imprisoned inside this place!"

"Savior! Who is our savior?!"

"This right here! This is the big brother that defeated the Bull-Headed Demon!"

"Thank you, savior… Thank you so much…"

...….

Like a group of happy elves, dozens of them flew around Chen Xiaobei. As all of them were murdered when they were children, they were still innocent and pure of heart. None of them carried any evil thoughts with them. To Chen Xiaobei, they were like a group of adorable elves. After some time of playing, they finally began to settle down.

"Sigh…" One of the older children lamented, "We are free now but what can spirits like us do in this world?"

Rendered speechless, none of the children could answer his question. It seemed that all of them were troubled by the same question.

"I can help you guys go through reincarnation if that is your wish!"

Clearly, this was the best option for every single one of them.

"Big brother… Are you serious? It will be great if all of us can be reincarnated!"

"That's right! There's nothing left for me in this world anyway! I want to have a brand-new start in my next life!"

"Don't even think about it! Our bodies are cursed! We will not be able to go through reincarnation if no one can help us to get rid of the curse!"

"We have been trapped here for so many years. I don't think there is anyone in this world can help us to get rid of the curse on us! Big brother right here is just trying to console us…"

...…

Clearly, the children did not believe that Chen Xiaobei could help them reincarnate. They lowered their heads in disappointment.

"Don't worry! I promise you guys that I can definitely help you with reincarnation! Yanwang is my good bro! I'm pretty sure he can help me with this problem if I talk to him about it!"

"What? Yanwang is your good bro? Big brother, you are really good at bragging!"

"That's right! Do you really think you can fool kids like us?"

"Big brother! Do you know that your nose will grow really long if you lie?"

...…

All the children thought that Chen Xiaobei was lying to them.

"Well, you guys can't leave this place anyway. Why not try my method? Maybe I'm not lying," Chen Xiaobei said with a confident smile. His friendship with Yanwang was actually quite solid.

"Big brother is right! Why not try it? We might have the chance to be reincarnated! However, we will lose the opportunity if we don't give it a try!"

"That's right! Let's listen to our big brother! We should try it!"

"Big brother, tell us. What should we do now?"

...

This group of children was smart. Upon reaching an agreement, all of them flew to Chen Xiaobei at the same time.

"I need you guys to fly back to your bodies. I want to snap a few pictures."

Chen Xiaobei took out his cell phone while giving instructions.

"Alright!"

Immediately, all of them followed Chen Xiaobei's instruction and flew to their respective bodies to wait for further instructions. Just when Chen Xiaobei prepared to snap a picture of them, he noticed something weird.

"Eh? There is one more body over there? Why is no one flying to that body?"

Other than that, the eyes of that body were closed.

"Something's wrong!'

"Ah!! I know now!"

Chen Xiaobei quickened his strides towards the body immediately.
