Chapter 165

"No, why bother with these living dead?"

Shang Xia suddenly remembered that he could fool the induction of the living corpse with the Zhu card in his hand.

Of course, at the very least, a martial artist must have the Zhu family's unique martial arts vitality cultivated by the Zhu family's direct lineage, in order to be able to activate the Zhu card in his hand.

And if you are carrying the blood of the Zhu family, the effect may be even better!

With a thought in Shang Xia's mind, the vitality of the two instruments in his body instantly transformed into the vitality of light and heavy poles.

Holding the Zhu Pai in his hand, it was infused with vitality, and a layer of crimson hazy brilliance suddenly appeared on the surface.

Shang Xia sped up the passage again, and soon encountered a living corpse again.

Shang Xia still didn't dare to take it lightly, and immediately slowed down and approached slowly.

After hearing the movement, the living corpse was indeed walking towards Shang Xia's location, but it didn't actively attack as before.

Seeing this, Shang Xia quickly walked around the living corpse, and continued to run towards the exit of the underground passage.

With the help of the Zhu card in his hand, Shang Xia traveled unimpeded all the way, but Mu Qingyu, who was following behind him, almost suffered a disaster.

Mu Qingyu didn't have a red card in his hand, and the path Shang Xia had traveled along was definitely safe.

But after Shang Xia bypassed the living corpses blocking the way, Mu Qingyu, who followed him, encountered difficulties.

She doesn't have the strength and means of Shang Xia, not to mention the third-tier zombies, even the second-tier zombies are not sure to deal with.

The passage was already narrow, even if you wanted to go around the living corpse blocking the way, you couldn't do it, and you didn't dare to call for help if you disturbed the living corpse, so you could only be trapped in the passage.

Shang Xia had already left Mu Qingyu behind at this time. The length of this underground passage was quite a distance, but after running with all his strength, he saw the light of the exit after a while.

At this time, Shang Xia slowed down instead, and slowly approached the exit.

At the same time, the vitality in the body is running, ready to shoot at any time.

…………

Ji Wenlong has already sensed that something is wrong!

Not only him, but also the Eastern Eagle of the Chinese Rose Society was fighting against the fourth-order living corpse Zhu Ye in front of him at this time, while his eyes wandered, and he kept aiming in different directions.

The confrontation between the six fourth-order beings almost leveled more than half of the entire Zhu family's old house, and the momentum was earth-shattering.

It stands to reason that Liu Jitang and Murong Tianlan who had entered Zhu's old house had already heard of such a big momentum.

But the fact is that until now, neither Liu Jitang nor Murong Tianlan had any intention of showing their faces.

Is it to avoid showing your face on purpose, or is it because you have to, or even worse?

In addition to Zhu Ye, Zhu Liang, and Zhu Kuang, the four masters of the Zhu family's four fourth-level masters, there is also Zhu Tong, the old patriarch of the Zhu family who has reached the fourth-level Dzogchen and is only one step away from the fifth level. !

Now that Zhu Ye, Zhu Liang, and Zhu Kuang had turned into fourth-order living corpses, there was no reason why the old patriarch of the Zhu clan would be an exception.

What's more, the rumors that the old patriarch of the Zhu clan was about to advance to the fifth heaven spread throughout Youzhou. Although there was no real evidence, just in case...

…………

Shang Xia was currently in a courtyard similar to a back garden.

It's just that the vegetation in the garden has been bulldozed, and there are traces of burning and freezing everywhere on the ground. No need to ask, you know that it was Zhu Ying's handwriting.

There are many broken branches and rotten leaves left on the ground. Although most of the Shang Xia are unidentifiable, judging from the only branches and leaves that can identify the species, all of them are rare and rare grasses that have been aged.

Of the medicinal herbs that can be intentionally transplanted by the Zhu family in the family residence, which one can be of lower grade?

Although this flower medicine garden has not been taken care of for twenty years, it has grown wildly under the nourishment of the abundant vitality of the Coral Lin Xuanjie, and there may be mature third- and fourth-order herbs that can be used to make up three, two, four advanced formula.

"This guy would rather destroy these things than leave them to any other party!"

After Shang Xia rushed out of that passage, the expected ambush attack did not appear, and he did not even encounter a living corpse, but instead came to this ruined garden.

Looking at the broken branches and fallen leaves all over the ground, Shang Xia felt distressed after thinking about it.

There are still several steles standing around the garden, but most of the writing on the steles has been erased.

Although there are still only a few assertions left, trying to use this to deduce all the contents on the stele is tantamount to nonsense.

But it can also prove in turn that the content on the stele must be extremely important.

Could it be that these steles all recorded the inheritance of Zhu's Martial Arts?

But thinking that he just saw a fourth-level advanced formula on the stone wall of the previous stone room, he felt that it was unlikely.

Of course, martial arts inheritance generally refers to three types: advanced formulas, exercises of different realms, and martial arts of different realms.

Even if the records on these stone tablets are not advanced formulas, they may be martial arts of different realms, or several martial arts that can directly reach the great perfection of supernatural powers, or inheritances such as the way of tools, medicine, and talismans. ,etc.

But it's too late to say anything now, and I can only look at the stone tablet whose surface has been erased, leaving nothing but regrets.

Shang Xia roughly judged Zhu Ying's direction of travel based on the depth of the traces of ice and fire left on the ground, and soon left the garden.

At this moment, Ji Wenlong's voice echoed over the old Zhu's house again.

"Both of you, don't hold back anymore. The situation in this place is not right. Get rid of your opponents just in case!"

Ji Wenlong shook his hand and slashed, and suddenly there were four-color magic knives from four directions in the sky, and they slashed at Zhu Kuang, who had the highest cultivation level among the three living corpses of the fourth rank.

Seeing this, the Eastern Great Eagle also exerted all his strength, his natal sha gushed out, and condensed into a goshawk fluttering its wings in mid-air. When his wings fluttered, there were three-colored brilliance, and he volleyed towards Zhu Ye. The transformed living corpse swooped down.

Lang Xiaoyun, as a martial artist from the outer domain, although he didn't know much about the Zhu family back then, he saw that the other two were exerting their full strength. Although they didn't understand the reason, they also condensed a bright moon above their heads. Constantly switching between forms, submerging the living corpse Zhu Liang in the "moonlight"...

Shang Xia's face changed again at this time, he heard Ji Wenlong's voice just now.

However, when the shout full of vitality of the four heavens reached Shang Xia's ears, it was as if separated by a thick door wall, and he had to listen carefully to hear it clearly.

In other words, although his current location is still in Zhu's old house, it is actually separated by another floor.

Another formation space?

If this is the case, it can only mean one thing: he may be approaching the location of the previous bronze portal!

Although Shang Xia had already prepared for this, when he thought that he might encounter that suspected fifth-order living corpse at any time..., he might not be able to blow it off in one breath, and his imagination shuddered.

However, things have come to this point, and it is too late to turn back, so I can only bite the bullet and move on.

Only at this time, Shang Xia noticed again that after he came out of the underground passage, he didn't meet a living corpse along the way.

This made him feel faintly uneasy, and many bad thoughts popped up in his heart in an instant.

It shouldn't be that the suspected fifth-order living corpse already has the ability to gather a group of living corpses?

If that's the case...

Suddenly, a bad wind hit his face, and two black shadows flew past his eyes. When Shang Xia suddenly woke up, two hideous living corpses rushed towards him from different directions.

Two third-order living corpses!

In a hurry, Shang Xia couldn't even use his supernatural powers of swordsmanship, so he could only hold the Yuhe sword in one hand and the other long sword in the other to resist.

No matter how powerful Shang Xia's swordsmanship is, he is still only a Tier 2 warrior.

Caught off guard, he was immediately knocked into the air by two Tier 3 living corpses.

Fortunately, he was exquisite in swordsmanship, blocked the attack of the living corpse and was not injured. It was just that the vitality in his body was turbulent, which caused a dull pain in his chest and abdomen.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

A long, triumphant laugh came, and Zhu Ying appeared under a pavilion more than ten feet away behind the two living corpses, and said triumphantly to Shang Xia: "I knew you would follow, but unfortunately, you come late!"

As soon as the words fell, Zhu Ying's expression suddenly turned fierce, and she pointed at Shang Xia: "Kill him!"

Not only the two third-order living corpses that had just sneaked up on him, but also seven or eight living corpses came out of different directions from rockeries, houses, pavilions and other places, and surrounded Shang Xia.

He can actually command living corpses!

Shocked, Shang Xia quickly swung his sword to block the attack of the first two third-order living corpses, and the surrounding living corpses had already taken the opportunity to form a circle of encirclement.

But Zhu Ying in the distance just smiled coldly, and disappeared into the gazebo in a flash.

Earlier in the stone chamber, Zhu Ying used her own blood to attract living corpses to attack Shang Xia.

Obviously, Zhu Ying's own blood of the Zhu family may be able to avoid the attack of the living corpse, but it is not yet able to control the living corpse.

But during this period of time, Shang Xia completely cultivated his supernatural powers of swordsmanship in the stone room, but Zhu Ying also had a good fortune, and was able to command the living corpses to besiege Shang Xia.

What happened to the Zhu family back then?

Did you expect the family members to turn into living corpses?

Otherwise, how could this method of controlling living corpses be left behind?

Thoughts flickered in Shang Xia's mind, but the living corpses around him were not idle either. Nearly ten living corpses surrounded Shang Xia more and more tightly, and each of them was facing him fearlessly. Pounce on the body, of which there are about three or four who have reached the third level.

That is to say, after Shang Xia entered the Liangyi Realm Great Consummation, his self-cultivation strength improved again, and after he mastered the Liangyi Qiankun Sword Formation, he also had feedback on ordinary swordsmanship and martial arts, so he was able to resist it.

But in this situation, he couldn't resist a few rounds. I'm afraid Shang Xia would be dismembered by these ten living corpses.

But at this moment, Shang Xia swiped the Yuhe Sword towards his body, and the strength brought by the sword light blocked the living corpses surrounding him, and the other long sword in Shang Xia's hand immediately fell behind Shang Xia. Under the energy of Liangyi, he was shattered into pieces.

However, the hundreds of fragments of the long sword did not fall to the ground, but hovered around Shang Xia's body, and began to rotate slowly, followed by faint halos on each finger-sized fragment. rise up, and gradually use the fragments as the main body to condense into strands of sword energy.

These fragments revolved faster and faster around Shang Xia's body, and the sword energy condensed on them began to attract the vitality of the surrounding heaven and earth to gather together, forming sword glows one after another.

As the sword light began to fluctuate, the rotating range of the hundreds of fragments began to expand outward until it completely surrounded ten living corpses, forming a cage completely composed of sword energy.
