In a simulated life scenario, how do you defy fate and change your destiny every time?

Chapter 149 Unyielding Bones, Slaying a Half-Step Saint!

The heartland of Youzhou.

The light was dim, and a chilly wind was blowing.

Faint sounds of ghosts wailing and wolves howling could be heard.

Hundreds of mountain ranges, like the spine of a dragon, meander and guard a mountain peak in the center.

And on that majestic mountain peak.

Surrounded by layers of magic arrays, magnificent and tall pavilions rise from the ground.

With its carved dragons and painted beams, and jade palaces and magnificent buildings, it exudes the grandeur of a great religion.

But in Lu Yuan's view...

This place is eerie and dangerous, teeming with hidden dangers.

It was a man-made place for raising corpses, created according to the terrain!

"The Corpse Immortal Sect is quite extravagant; I wonder how they managed to steal a wisp of dragon vein energy."

Lu Yuan stood on a distant mountain peak, carefully observing this majestic mountain range.

He had encountered many disciples of the Corpse Immortal Sect during his journey.

After a friendly exchange, Lu Yuan obtained a lot of useful information from the other party.

According to an inner elder of the Corpse Immortal Sect.

The Mysterious Yin Ghost Mother is a spirit-possessed immortal corpse who has lived a second life. Her origins are mysterious and ancient, and she is probably from the ancient times.

She possessed extraordinary abilities, using her unparalleled magical power to move hundreds of mountains from various places, and then spent thousands of years setting up this grand feng shui formation.

This formation has countless uses; it can not only steal the fortune of the Great Spirit Kingdom, but also continuously draw upon the power of the Youzhou earth veins to maintain the operation of the formation.

Protected by this feng shui formation, even an eighth-rank Manifestation Saint would not be able to breach the Corpse Immortal Sect's gates in a short time!
However, as the battle in Lingxu Cave Heaven intensified, all the powerful members of the Corpse Immortal Sect came out, and even many weak outer disciples received orders to urgently return to their sect from various parts of Youzhou.

This gave Lu Yuan an opportunity to take advantage of the situation...

Lu Yuan carefully recalled all the details he had obtained from the soul search, and after confirming that there were no oversights, he...

This activated the Thousand Faces Without Form, causing the facial features to distort and change, transforming it into the appearance of a short, elderly man.

Lu Yuan then summoned a sixth-grade flying zombie and, using the information he had obtained, easily found the location of the mountain gate.

However, as soon as he approached the mountain gate, an invisible barrier appeared from the void, blocking his way.

At the same time, a faint sense of crisis emerged from the bottom of his heart.

Lu Yuan's intuition told him...

This feng shui formation is incredibly powerful. If he were to force his way in, he would be instantly met with a devastating, thunderous attack!

Lu Yuan's eyes flashed, and he immediately took out an identity token from his spatial ring.

Each Corpse Immortal Sect disciple's token is made using their own divine sense, making it unique and impossible for anyone to replicate.

However, the Thousand Faces Without Form is an ancient treasure that can not only imitate the figure and appearance of other martial artists, but also perfectly replicate their aura and true essence.

It has a thousand faces and no disguise.

Lu Yuan passed through the feng shui formation smoothly and easily stepped into the sect of the Corpse Immortal Cult.

However, as soon as he stepped into this place, a strong stench of corpses hit him, making him want to vomit!

Lu Yuan's face was grim.

As expected, there are only wrong names, but no wrong nicknames.

The Corpse Immortal Cult members deal with corpses all day long; they are infinitely more disgusting than bedbugs!
Lu Yuan suppressed his nausea and looked up from the foot of the mountain towards the peak.

The mountain was covered with palaces and pavilions, and many disciples of the Corpse Immortal Sect were busy driving away walking corpses and transporting various supplies.

Meanwhile, lights kept flashing on the mountaintop, teleporting large numbers of zombies and supplies to the battlefield.

Activating the teleportation array each time requires a massive amount of resources.

But for the Corpse Immortal Sect, which has a deep foundation, this is just a drop in the ocean.

"The most urgent task is to shut down the teleportation array to prevent the Corpse Immortal Cult's experts from suddenly returning to the sect."

Lu Yuan quickly finalized his plan.

That is, at this very moment.

A gaunt old man in black, like a ghost, rushed wildly towards Lu Yuan from the foot of the mountain.

"Elder Xu Hong, you're finally back. Several Supreme Elders have decided to personally go to the Qingzhou battlefield and have ordered you and other outer sect elders to be responsible for guarding our sect's gate."

"Take me to the main hall."

Lu Yuan nodded, already aware of the matter.

Although the Corpse Immortal Sect was bloodthirsty, they weren't fools.

To prevent internal weakness from being exploited.

While Xuan Yin Ghost Mother mobilized a large number of powerful warriors to attack Lingxu Cave Heaven, she also urgently recalled many elders who had stayed behind in various places.

It didn't take long.

Led by the old man in black, Lu Yuan quickly arrived at the sect's main hall.

Five seventh-grade Xuan Dan experts and more than thirty sixth-grade Divine Sea martial artists have gathered here.

without any exaggeration.

With just this number of people, they are already enough to sweep across an entire state.

Moreover, based on Lu Yuan's constant probing and his own observations, he learned that...

Besides these elders.

Within the Corpse Immortal Sect, there are also two half-step Saint-level experts responsible for guarding the key points of the great formation, ensuring the sect's absolute safety.

With their strength, coupled with their impregnable feng shui formation, even an eighth-rank Saint-level expert might not be able to breach the Corpse Immortal Sect's mountain gate.

Moreover, the Corpse Immortal Sect has stood for ten thousand years and has close ties with other alien demons.

Besides the Demon Suppression Division, who else would have the audacity to oppose the Corpse Immortal Sect?

Unfortunately.

They greatly underestimated Lu Yuan's abilities and madness!

Inside the sect's main hall, a Xuan Dan elder directly assigned detailed tasks to everyone.

The crowd dispersed after receiving their orders.

Lu Yuan followed two slightly weaker Xuan Dan experts, and after another friendly conversation, he finally learned the location of the great formation's hub.

As he attempted to approach the central hub of the protective array.

A thunderous shout suddenly rang in his ears.

"Xu Hong, this is a forbidden area of ​​the sect. You have entered this place without permission. What is your intention?"

Two figures appeared out of thin air not far from Lu Yuan, as if they had teleported.

Their eyes flashed with murderous intent, and their inner energy was poised to be unleashed.

It was as if they would not hesitate to kill Lu Yuan if he answered incorrectly!
"Please forgive me, two Supreme Elders, for my abrupt visit. I came here unexpectedly while on a mission outside the sect and obtained a priceless treasure."

"But this disciple is blind and would like to ask the two Supreme Elders to help me take a look!"

Lu Yuan feigned a look of fear and trepidation, and said in a trembling voice.

"Elder Xu, you've crossed the line. Try to be reborn into a better family in your next life."

The two elders had absolutely no interest in the treasure that Lu Yuan mentioned.

As half-step Saint-level experts, what treasures haven't they seen?

Xu Hong, a mere outer sect elder, dared to approach the core of the sect's protective formation without permission. No matter what his reasons were, he was already a dead man!

A purple-robed elder, his gaze icy, slowly raised his right hand, preparing to strike Lu Yuan dead with a single blow.

But Lu Yuan's next words caused their expressions to change drastically, and they were no longer calm and composed as before!
"Reporting to the two Supreme Elders, this item may be related to the legendary Supreme Immortal Weapon!"

"A celestial weapon? Is that really true?"

The purple-robed elder reached out and grabbed Lu Yuan, squeezing his neck so tightly that it made it extremely difficult for him to breathe.

"Cough cough!"

Lu Yuan coughed violently, his face turning bright red, looking like a chick being held in the other person's hand.

"Alright, if you use any more force, you'll strangle Xu Hong to death," another elder advised.

Given his status, he naturally wouldn't care about the life or death of an outer sect elder.

But the celestial weapon that Lu Yuan mentioned had a fatal attraction for him.

Since the ancient times when the path to immortality was severed, no one in this world has been able to ascend to immortality.

In this later era where spiritual energy is increasingly scarce, anything that can be even slightly associated with the word "immortal" is an unparalleled treasure that is extremely rare in the world!

"Ahem, what this disciple said is true. If the two Supreme Elders do not believe it, they are welcome to see for themselves!"

As Lu Yuan spoke, he took out a long sword with goose feathers from his spatial ring.

The surface of that long sword was interwoven with patterns of laws, and as the Daoist aura flowed, it faintly emitted a terrifying fluctuation that made one's heart tremble.

It's obvious at a glance that this is no ordinary item.

"hiss!"

"How is this possible? It really is a supreme celestial weapon?"

The two Supreme Elders of the Corpse Immortal Sect gasped in shock, their eyes wide with astonishment.

"If I can refine this weapon, I may have a chance to become an immortal!"

"Tell me right now, where did you get this from?"

The purple-robed elder was overjoyed, his old eyes bloodshot, as he gripped Lu Yuan's neck tightly, trying to get the origin of this immortal weapon from him.

"This disciple is..."

But Lu Yuan's breath was barely a whisper, and his voice grew weaker and weaker.

The two elders frowned slightly and leaned close to Lu Yuan's ear, trying to hear what he was saying.

Just when their attention was diverted and their guard was down.

The other elder's weapon, Du'e, suddenly emitted a dazzling divine light.

Then a chilling light shot into the sky, illuminating the entire forbidden area like lightning!

The two Supreme Elders of the Corpse Immortal Sect didn't even have time to scream before they were cleaved in two by the sharp blade light.

Du'e is an unparalleled weapon blessed and baptized by the will of the heavens; its blade is so sharp that it can even kill a true immortal.

Lu Yuan is currently only at the seventh-grade Xuan Dan realm, and cannot yet unleash even one ten-thousandth of his Du'e strength.

Even so, it was more than enough to kill two half-step Saint-level experts.

"You scoundrel, you dared to ambush us!"

The two divine souls panicked and flew out from their tattered bodies. They never dreamed that such a shocking change would happen.

Lu Yuan ignored the two men's angry shouts and rebukes.

He simply activated the Soul Refining Pearl to draw the two divine souls into the internal space.

at the same time.

The prompt from the will of the heavens also followed.

[You have killed two heinous half-step Saintly experts, gaining 13 million Heaven-Mending Points!]

"Those two old idiots really went all out."

Lu Yuan rubbed the bruise on his neck and said irritably.

Under normal circumstances.

He would need to expend considerable effort to kill two half-step Saint-level experts.

Moreover, this place is the central hub of a grand feng shui formation.

If the commotion is too great, it will inevitably attract all the powerful members of the Corpse Immortal Sect.

Therefore, Lu Yuan had no choice but to risk his life to lower the guard of the two elders, and finally achieved his goal of killing them with one blow.

Lu Yuan bent down and searched the corpse, finding two spatial rings.

As the souls of the two Supreme Elders were refined, the divine imprints they left on the ring also became extremely weak.

Lu Yuan extended a wisp of divine thought, which destroyed all defenses and restrictions with overwhelming force.

He glanced at it briefly.

In addition to a large amount of resources, they discovered that the ring also contained more than a dozen Rank 7 Blood Zombies and one Rank 8 Saint Zombie!
The Corpse Immortal Sect is renowned throughout the world for its ability to create walking corpses and control puppets.

Whether they are disciples or elders, at least 70% of their strength comes from the walking corpses they have created.

That's why.

These two half-step Saintly experts were caught off guard, which is why Lu Yuan was able to strike them successfully.

The several Rank 7 Blood Zombies inside their rings were crafted using secret techniques and countless materials, and their strength was comparable to that of a Rank 7 Profound Core expert!
As for that holy zombie, it had an even more extraordinary background. In its previous life, it was an eighth-rank Manifestation Saint. Later, it offended the Corpse Immortal Sect and was ambushed and killed by the Profound Yin Ghost Mother. Its body was then refined into a walking corpse.

Despite a significant decrease in strength, he can still exert the combat power of a half-step Saintly Realm expert!
Now that this holy zombie has fallen into Lu Yuan's hands, it has given rise to a different thought in him.

His eyes narrowed as he stared at the tall, imposing holy zombie, and detailed information immediately surfaced in his mind.

[Item: Holy Zombie]

[Grade: Eighth Tier]

[Introduction: This zombie was created by the Mysterious Yin Ghost Mother using the power of earthly evil over a hundred years. Its physical body is not only terrifyingly powerful, but it can also use a body-refining divine ability.]

[If one spares no expense and allows them to burn their entire life essence, they can temporarily unleash combat power comparable to an eighth-grade Manifestation Saint!]

[Hint: Spend 100 million Sky-Mending Points to upgrade it to a ninth-tier walking corpse—Undying Bone!]

"Undying bones?"

Lu Yuan's eyes lit up with excitement, and he was overjoyed.

According to the Corpse Immortal Sect's classification of walking corpses' strength, the Undying Bone is equivalent to a ninth-grade Celestial Being.

If we go any further, then we become the legendary immortal zombies.

Although walking corpses are against the natural order and are things that Heaven and Earth despise and reject.

Furthermore, their intelligence is limited, making them unable to utilize various powerful martial arts techniques and supernatural abilities.

Therefore, their strength will be greatly reduced when facing opponents of the same level.

But their greatest advantage lies in...

All zombies are fearless and will absolutely obey their master's orders; moreover, they can be mass-produced!
Moreover, even if a ninth-tier Undying Bone is weak, it is still equivalent to a late-stage Manifestation Saint!
Other powerful members of the Corpse Immortal Cult should also be wary of being attacked by the Undying Bone.

With Lu Yuan's talent of "Acting on Behalf of Heaven," he can completely make up for all his shortcomings and deficiencies.

One hundred million Heaven-Mending Points can be exchanged for an absolutely loyal Rank 8 Manifestation Saint warrior.

This deal was an absolute steal!
Moreover, as long as Lu Yuan keeps killing alien demons, he can earn a steady stream of Sky-Mending Points.

If I could build an army of hundreds of undead zombies, how terrifying would that scene be?
Just imagining it made Lu Yuan feel a sense of longing!

No hesitation.

Lu Yuan immediately spent 100 million Heaven-Mending Points to upgrade the Saint Zombie to an Undying Bone.

A flash of white light flashed.

"boom!"

The Saint Zombie's aura surged, and its strength broke through a certain critical point.

The once towering three-zhang-tall holy zombie had actually shrunk in size, its physique decreasing instead of increasing, shrinking to only about one zhang in height!
However, its flesh and bones became increasingly solid and strong, as if cast from divine metal, possessing an indestructible defensive power!

Especially its pair of scarlet, bloodthirsty eyes, which became even more lively and intelligent.

It could easily understand the orders given by Lu Yuan, and its intelligence level was no different from that of an ordinary martial arts cultivator!
However, what surprised Lu Yuan the most was...

On the surface of this unyielding body, there are still many laws and Dao patterns condensing. When its blood and qi roar, it can resonate with heaven and earth, causing its strength to surge again!
"Walking corpses are abhorrent to the heavens, inherently rejected by the laws of nature."

"But this Undying Bone can actually resonate with the laws. Could it be because it was strengthened by the Heaven-Mending Points?"

Lu Yuan said happily.

Although walking corpses have strong physical bodies, their biggest weakness is that they cannot use martial arts techniques and true essence, making them weaker than martial artists of the same level.

However, the "Acting on Behalf of Heaven" skill compensated for the weakness of this beast's incorruptible bones, allowing it to unleash power comparable to the peak of an eighth-rank Saint!
Even if they encounter a ninth-grade Celestial Realm expert, they can still put up a fight!
"The two Supreme Elders are dead. As long as this feng shui formation is destroyed, I can wipe out the entire Corpse Immortal Sect in blood!"

Lu Yuan muttered to himself.

All things are created to nourish man, and man has nothing to repay to heaven.

The Corpse Immortal Cult has committed countless evil deeds, and now it's time for them to pay the price!
