Becoming a Taoist Master by Walking on the Underworld

Chapter 216 The Corpse King Escapes Underground, Red Hero Fruit, Anti-Old Age Pill
In battle, a slight difference can lead to a huge error.

Not to mention the distance of three feet.

At that moment, the evil-faced demon reacted swiftly, immediately sprang up from the ground, and then slashed hard at its head!
bump!
Even the red-haired zombie king, after being slashed down by its fierce blade, had its hard head immediately caved in.

But at that moment, it immediately reacted, braced itself, and jumped up.

However, since Chen Yushu had decided to take action, he naturally wouldn't just use one move.

As he stepped on the Seven Stars, his spiritual power spread out, drawing out surging earth energy that transformed into terrifying earth energy cages, pressing down on it once more.

boom!
The red-haired zombie king, who had just straightened up, was slammed down again.

Then Chen Yushu's thoughts changed again, and as he used his mental energy to draw, one magical rune structure after another quickly condensed successfully.

And during the spell, his hands suddenly came together gently, forming a special hand seal.

Soon, the handprint was formed, and at that very moment, the spell was successfully condensed.

Then it bent down and bowed slightly!
Suddenly, a special power seemed to surge into the surrounding world, transforming into a sharp blade as he bent down, charging fiercely towards the red-haired blood zombie.

bump!
In an instant, the red-haired blood zombie that had been pressed to the ground seemed to have suffered an extremely terrifying attack. Its incredibly tough body began to crack, and tiny wounds appeared on its surface.

Its once fierce and bloodthirsty eyes now looked utterly listless, as if it had suffered a severe blow.

The method of offering blessings!

At this moment, Chen Yushu used the method of offering blessings.

With his current cultivation level, even though he has only cultivated this blessing technique to a minor level, its power is already considerable.

As for the even more powerful Divine Descent Technique...

Chen Yushu was able to perform the spell with even less pressure, and his casting speed was even faster.

The damage to this red-haired zombie king will also be greater.

But upon seeing this Corpse King, he couldn't help but be tempted, wanting to use the Spirit Seal to subdue it, but he couldn't bear to kill it completely.

Seeing that it had almost lost its ability to resist, Chen Yushu breathed a sigh of relief and immediately began casting the spell again.

One breath, two breaths, three breaths...

Meanwhile, the other black-haired zombies didn't stop either, and immediately charged towards them at high speed.

But Zhu Jiuzhi was always by Chen Yushu's side, and any zombie that dared to approach was swatted to death in the blink of an eye.

Not to mention, there's also the evil-faced ghost.

Although the Evil-Faced Ghost is not as strong as the Red-Haired Corpse King, his combat prowess is not weak either.

Before the zombies charged at it, it had already drawn its sword and charged straight at them, its hands transforming into sharp blades as it slashed at the group of black-haired zombies.

Aside from a few relatively powerful early-stage evil spirit zombies that could barely withstand a few hits, almost no black-haired zombie could stand a chance against it.

It was like slicing vegetables with a cleaver.

The black-haired zombies fell in droves.

At that moment, Chen Yushu had just unleashed the Spirit Communication Seal and was about to attack the Red-haired Corpse King when it seemed to sense something. It mustered all its strength and leaped up from the ground again. Then, without thinking, it immediately fled into the distance.

The speed was extremely fast.

With a leap of three zhang, and just two leaps, he was already more than six zhang away.

"Still want to escape?"

Chen Yushu was also somewhat surprised.

While maintaining the Spirit Communication Seal, he stepped on the Seven Stars, and as the earth's energy surged, he quickly pressed down on it.

The speed is equally astonishing.

With Chen Yushu's perfected Seven Star Steps, not only is his control over the earth's energy swift and fierce, but his spell casting distance has also reached an extremely high level.

Six zhang?

Even if it's eight zhang, or even ten or fifteen zhang, it's still within his spell attack range.

boom!
As Chen Yushu used the Seven Star Steps, he felt uneasy and even reached out to press down again.

The Subduing Yin Technique!

Instantly, the red-haired zombie king's body paused again, then slammed heavily onto the ground.

But at this moment, it seemed that it had anticipated this, and as it was being pressed down, a special stream of light suddenly emanated from its body.

Then, as his body slammed onto the ground, he swiftly dodged, like a fish entering water, and disappeared inside in the blink of an eye.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Yushu saw the soil on the ground tumble slightly, and then, like a thread, it quickly rushed straight into the distance.

Seeing this, Chen Yushu only had time to unleash the Spirit Communication Seal.

Yao Yao saw the Spirit Seal disappear into it, but he didn't confirm whether it actually hit the target.

All that could be seen was the red-haired corpse king churning the soil, moving rapidly away, and then seemingly sinking into the soil at a relatively deep depth. The commotion on the ground gradually disappeared until it was completely gone.

"pity.

It actually escaped!

Chen Yushu frowned slightly.

It was both unexpected and a pity.

He had somewhat underestimated this Corpse King.

Unexpectedly, even after being severely injured by my blessing technique, the opponent still had the strength to escape quickly.

But think about it, this is normal.

Although the opponent was only at the late stage of the evil spirit level.

But after all, it is the Corpse King.

In some ways, his strength is no less than that of Zhu Jiuzhi.

If it were to be combined with other black-haired zombies, even Zhu Jiuzhi wouldn't dare to provoke it. In addition, he didn't understand the opponent's methods and was unprepared for its earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a type of magic/escaping technique).

It's perfectly normal for it to escape.

"However, the escape of this Corpse King still poses certain risks."

If we have the chance in the future, we still need to eradicate it as soon as possible.

Chen Yushu pondered for a moment, but didn't have many solutions.

Although he was quite strong, he did not master the art of earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a type of escape technique).

Although the Evil-Faced Ghost and Zhu Jiuzhi are ghost spirits who can freely transform their bodies, they cannot travel through the land to find the Corpse King.

Therefore, there's really no way to deal with them in the short term.

While thinking.

The battle on the other side quickly came to an end.

Even the red-haired zombie king had fled, so these black-haired zombies were naturally killed one by one by the evil-faced ghost and Zhu Jiuzhi.

Although, among these black-haired zombies, there are actually quite a few that are of the evil spirit level.

He was tall and had strong defensive capabilities.

But seeing how easily the evil-level zombie was suppressed and even killed by the evil-faced ghost, he naturally didn't think much of it.

There are differences between different types of evil zombies.

The early-stage evil zombie born from this group of black-haired zombies was vastly different from the one he had encountered before, which he had only managed to defeat with the help of Qi Jichuan and Zhao Yufeng. The difference was like the difference between stars and the moon.

Chen Yushu didn't want to waste a chance to form a spirit bond with a demon of this level.

Even so, theoretically speaking, his chances of contracting with a spirit are unlimited, as long as his soul strength is sufficient.

He can fit hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of them perfectly without being affected in the slightest.

But he always remembered that the eighth-level reward left by the Huangshan Ancestor in the Inheritance Trial Tower consisted of two things. One of them was the Book of the Underworld that he had obtained.

There is also another one, which is the book of Hundred Ghosts Night Parade chosen by the person who passed the eighth level of the test.

As Bai Gui Dao Ren's reputation soared, he was even recognized as one of the Seven True Men of the Martial Kingdom.

Therefore, ordinary cultivators were not only very familiar with his strength, but also quite clear about the Hundred Ghosts Night Tour Book he had obtained.

The ghosts, zombies, and demons that were sealed away were all quite powerful and capable in combat.

Undoubtedly, the ghosts sealed in the Book of a Hundred Ghosts at Night must all be products of this underworld. It is also very likely that they were created by the Huangshan Ancestor in this underworld using the Spirit Communication Seal.

Now that Chen Yushu has obtained the Book of the Underworld, he naturally wants to follow the same criteria used by the Old Ancestor of Huangshan to select ghosts and wants to contract with some relatively powerful ghosts and spirits.

Evil-faced ghost.

It is a being recorded in the Book of One Hundred Demons' Night Parade, vicious and ruthless, with extremely strong combat power, and of course it can be summoned by spirits.

He was satisfied with the ghost that was his first contracted spirit.

As for this black-haired zombie...

Even at the level of evil spirits, it's simply not qualified.

On the contrary, it was that red-haired corpse king.

Although it was not recorded in the Book of One Hundred Demons, its strength was still above that of the Evil-Faced Demon, so it was certainly qualified to become his second contracted spirit.

pity.

It got away.

in this way.

The battle on site has ended.

The evil-faced ghost began its routine of fiddling with the heads of the black-haired zombies, searching for the corpse pills.

Zhu Jiuzhi was also somewhat interested, especially since the evil spirit-level corpse pill would also be helpful to his strength.

But upon seeing the bloodied and mangled state of the black-haired zombies, it immediately abandoned the idea.

It's weaker, let it have it!
Zhu Jiuzhi muttered to himself, then quickly followed closely behind Chen Yushu.

At this moment, Chen Yushu also arrived at the area he had previously set his sights on.

Just as he had thought, this place was indeed an excellent hiding place, and also suitable as his 'lair' for a short stay.

Not only is it blocked from view in several directions, but there are also huge rocks hanging overhead, which can shelter it from the wind and rain, and can also serve as a simple roof.

then.

He then instructed the evil-faced ghost and Zhu Jiuzhi to gather some branches and wood, and to wave them around.

He then created an extremely simple house.

In his opinion, this house was completely unformed; to call it a railing would be an exaggeration.

It was just some wood and stones, simply surrounding the area.

But in the eyes of those ghosts and zombies, this is a house, a territory belonging to 'people', a place with an owner. If someone trespasses, they may cause trouble and invite attacks and retaliation from the other party.

"No, no, time's up."

The bewitching winds began to break through my mental barrier and affect me.

In a simple setup, within a hundred breaths, Chen Yushu immediately felt a bone-chilling coldness about to descend upon him.

He knew this was the result of a bewitching wind descending, constantly assaulting his soul.

He quickly ordered Zhu Jiuzhi and the evil-faced ghost to guard the place, while he used his magic to communicate with the underworld.

However, before using his spiritual communication technique, he glanced at the several spiritual herbs and precious medicinal plants in front of him.

He grabbed it in one swift motion.

Then, with a thought, he felt his soul travel through endless distances, and in the next moment, he felt a bright light before his eyes.

They returned to the real world.

He also immediately noticed himself sitting cross-legged in the room, looking like he was meditating.

But at the same time, he clearly felt that the bewitching wind was more than ten times stronger than in the underworld.

Not daring to be negligent, he instantly controlled his soul to rush into his body.

"I'm back!"

This time.

They stayed longer.

The gains were even greater.

Chen Yushu slowly opened his eyes.

Then, as if remembering something, he almost impatiently turned his gaze to his knees.

"A precious medicine! The precious Earth Spirit Grass has indeed been brought back."

Upon seeing this, Chen Yushu's face immediately showed a hint of surprise.

Its state and shape were exactly the same as when he was in the underworld.

Even the fluctuations in the sealing spells above were quite obvious.

For him, this meant something completely different.

In other words, he can continuously bring various spiritual materials and precious medicines from the underworld into the real world.

This was of great help to his spiritual practice.

Because through today's exploration, he has discovered that although the Underworld is very desolate, it is not actually very suitable for the growth of certain spiritual materials.

However, because of the abundant spiritual energy and spiritual particles of heaven and earth, many spiritual materials will also grow there.

Moreover, because they have not been harvested, many spiritual materials are of sufficient age, and there are quite a few that have reached the level of precious medicinal herbs in their growth years.

"The only pity is..."

Because of my mental strength.

Also, because my soul is still relatively weak, I can only carry a limited amount of things each time.

This time, they brought back only the precious medicine and two kinds of medicinal herbs, along with four or five other high-quality herbs.

The other two, it's unclear whether they remained in the underworld or were obliterated by space during their soul's journey.

Chen Yushu remembered that he had brought several kinds of medicinal herbs with him at the time.

But now there are only three kinds of medicinal herbs available.

One of them is the precious medicinal herb, Dilingcao.

The other two are medicinal herbs that are over a hundred years old. Although they did not transform into precious medicines, their medicinal power is definitely not low. In critical moments, they can also save lives, and their value is no less than that of ordinary precious medicines.

In particular, there is a medicinal herb called Hongyingguo, which takes a hundred years to grow, a hundred years to flower, and then another hundred years to bear fruit.

The fruit that grows is bright red and can be eaten directly.

Once ingested, although it cannot directly extend lifespan, it has the effect of reversing aging, which is quite miraculous.

Of course, if it is used to refine pills, it can be used to make a pill that reverses aging.

One anti-aging pill can make a person's face look five years younger.

Of course, the second one is less effective, lasting only three years.

The third one only lasts for one year.

But it is definitely a treasure that countless people dream of.
