Chapter 18: The Attack
Walking to the end of the passage, a black iron door appeared in front of me, and through the iron door, I could feel a strong yin qi coming out of the door, and the red light emitted by the power ring became more and more dazzling, reminding me to beware of evil.
I put my hand on the iron door, and the chill rushed to my brain, but fortunately, the Ring of Power quickly absorbed the yin qi on the iron door, and my brain quickly returned to normal.
Gently pushing open the heavy iron door, as soon as his right foot stepped in, he suddenly felt like falling into a three-foot ice cave, and the blood in his whole body seemed to solidify. I vigilantly observed the surroundings and found that this was an underground warehouse similar to a morgue, in which hundreds of beds were neatly placed, each bed was covered with a layer of white cloth, and there was an obvious bulge under the white cloth.
I walked into the warehouse, came to a bed closest to the iron door, gently lifted the white cloth, and in the dim incandescent light I saw a mutilated corpse, which could be judged by the fact that it was a man. It's just that half of his upper body was cut off by a sharp weapon, and judging from the wound, it should be caused by a large murder weapon similar to a sickle.
He put on the white cloth again, whispered a sentence in his mouth: "Rest in peace", and continued to check the beds next to him, judging from the clothes worn by the corpse, the deceased should be a villager from Wangliang Village.
Seeing this, I couldn't help but wonder: after the black-robed man killed all the villagers, why did he put the corpses in this morgue in a proper manner?
According to the old man's words, the destruction of the village happened half a year ago, and if the truth is really as he said, then these corpses still remain in an undecomposing state, which is very incredible.
From the moment I came in, I noticed that the temperature inside seemed to be even lower than outside, and after a search, I found no refrigeration equipment, and there was no ice on the bed.
To be able to stay underground for half a year without decaying, what means did the black-robed man use?
The Ring of Power still emits red light continuously, which is not normal, because according to past experience, if the Ring of Power glows red for a long time in a certain place, it can only indicate one problem: the evil aura in this place is extremely strong, and even a cultivator cannot bear it.
When I thought about it, I was relieved, only a yin aura of this strength could keep the corpse from decomposing for a long time.
A voice sounded in my head telling me that I couldn't stay here for long, and I walked around the warehouse, but I didn't find any other exit, and it seemed that I had to go back the way I came.
I thought I could find some clues from the tunnel, but in the end, the biggest gain was to find this warehouse full of corpses.
I was about to turn around and walk out of the warehouse, the black iron door didn't know when it closed, I rushed to the door and pushed it out, but I didn't move at all, I sighed in my heart, and said secretly: "It's calculated!" ”
Suddenly there was a cold yin qi behind me, and I slowly turned my head, only to see the corpses lying on the bed lifting the white cloth one after another, and walking out of the bed slowly approaching me.
"Is this a collective corpse?" I clenched the Tiangang Sword in my hand and couldn't help but swallow my saliva.
Because of the nourishment of strong yin qi, these corpses can remain incorruptible for a long time; On the other hand, due to the long-term infiltration of Yin Qi and the resentment of the deceased, the corpse here will gradually turn into a kind of monster called the Corpse Demon, which is very difficult to deal with in the eyes of cultivators.
Could it be that I, the living person, broke in and awakened this group of demons who had been sleeping?
It's a blessing or a curse, and it's a disaster that can't be avoided. Anyway, since this incident has happened to me, I will never give up, and I must find out who is behind the scenes and execute him to calm the anger of the villagers.
Seeing a middle-aged man baring his teeth and running towards me, I couldn't bear to hurt his body, so I deftly avoided it, then turned around and kicked him to the ground with a flying kick.
I inserted the Tiangang sword back into the scabbard behind my back, intending to fight these corpses in hand-to-hand combat, and I still remember that in the past, I fought a flying zombie that had been cultivated for hundreds of years, and in less than ten rounds, I destroyed it with my bare hands.
The martial arts skills taught by my father were an important part of my victory, and of course, my physical fitness was also an important reason for my success (even if my body was scratched by zombies, it would not be infected with corpse poison). But these were not the fundamental reasons why I easily defeated the Hundred Years Flying Zombie, and it was also during that battle that I discovered for the first time that the Ring of Power could greatly strengthen and improve my overall strength. Because no matter how special my physical condition is, it is impossible for me to be injured by a flying stiff who has a hundred years of Taoism. I can only say that the ring my father left me is too rebellious.
The red light on the Ring of Power faded and was replaced by a deep blue glow, and the moment the blue light burst out of the ring, I could clearly feel a powerful force pouring into my body.
The power that poured into my body, although it was very cold, but the body felt very comfortable, I remember that my father once said that the power ring is the most yin and evil thing, so it is inferred that the power released by the power ring is naturally related to yin qi.
My ability to accept this power with peace may be inextricably linked to the special destiny of my Heavenly Scare Lone Star. The blind man also told me before that my life was not only special but also rebellious, which also made me an otherworldly and unusual body.
I swung my right fist and blasted out a punch out of thin air, instantly overturning more than a dozen menacing corpses.
There was a strong gust of wind behind me, and I quickly turned around, and out of instinctive reaction, I swung a slap, only to hear a loud "bang", and several mutilated corpses were actually blown to pieces by me.
Rao is something that I can't do even after very hard cultivation, all because the Ring of Power has strengthened my physical abilities.
Although the corpse in this has been nourished by Yin Qi for a long time, it is not enough to see it in front of me with the blessing of the power ring. In just four or five minutes, I destroyed all the hundreds of corpses and lost their mobility.
I gasped for breath and raised my right arm and slammed the heavy iron door into the air with a punch. Just as I was about to run out of the warehouse, a large black hole suddenly appeared under my feet, and a powerful suction force sucked me into the hole. There seemed to be a myriad of invisible hands in the cave, clamping my arms so tightly that I felt breathless in my throat and fainted as soon as my eyes sank......
Under the dark sky, I sat on the supreme throne of the Netherworld Square, looking down at the group of Yin soldiers and ghost generals kneeling on the field.
The air above the square echoed with the oath of the mountain and the tsunami: "I am willing to swear to follow His Majesty the Ghost King to the death, and go to the soup to fight the fire and never give up!" ”
I stood up from my throne, and once again a deafening cheer rang out all around me: "Long live Your Majesty the Ghost King, long live, long live!" ”
In order to respond to the ghost generals on the field, I waved my dragon robe lightly and said with a solemn face: "I, the king of all ghosts, Emperor Slaying Heaven, is fortunate to have your support to sit on this supreme and glorious throne of the underworld. Thank you very much! ”
After speaking, there was another burst of long-lasting applause.
......
"Brother, brother......"
Suddenly there was Jiawen's voice in my ears, it turned out that I was not dead yet, and the hanging heart was put down.
My head was groggy, my whole body ached, I opened my eyes with great effort, and saw Jiawen holding my hand, a pair of crystal beautiful eyes with a little tears, I shook my fingers, and whispered: "Little fool, what are you crying about?" Am I not still alive? ”
