Zombie King: Picking up a baby at the beginning is the reincarnation of the empress

Chapter 281-282 Spirit Pill! Terrifying Enhancement
Inside the study, a terrifying atmosphere permeated the small space.

Lu Chuan, who was lying on the ground, suddenly opened his eyes and sat up.

At this moment, Lu Chuan had successfully advanced to the fifth rank, reaching a powerful realm that few in this world could achieve.

"call!"

Lu Chuan breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling much better.

It's finally over. This advancement to the fifth rank is something to be happy about.

But the process of getting promoted was far too painful.

The energy from the fourth-order crystal core surged into his body, causing not only a terrible headache but also a feeling of being trapped in a meat grinder, almost making him faint from the pain.

However, when Lu Chuan thought about the benefits he would gain after the promotion, a look of joy appeared on his face.

As a necessary means for Lu Chuan to control the corpse puppets, his mental power was greatly enhanced. The stagnation he had felt in his mind after reaching the limit of the number of fourth-order corpse puppets he could control had completely disappeared, and his mind was now clear and refreshed.

Lu Chuan closed his eyes, and his spiritual power, like waves on the sea, surged outwards from him in all directions.

The locations of each corpse puppet appeared in Lu Chuan's mind.

The study was completely quiet. Lu Chuan sat there quietly with his eyes closed until ten minutes later, when he slowly opened his eyes, a look of surprise in them.

After advancing to the fifth rank, with his mental power, he was able to control a large number of fourth-rank corpse puppets and a small number of fifth-rank corpse puppets.

Evolved zombies below the fourth tier can be manipulated at will, turning into corpse puppets. Lu Chuan just tried it out, and the area he could control was at least a hundred miles in radius.

This area is large enough to cover the entire urban area of ​​many cities.

As long as there are corpse puppets within this area, no unusual activity can escape Lu Chuan's notice.

If the human side dared to send evolved beings to seek revenge, they would probably be discovered by Lu Chuan as soon as they arrived in Beichen City, before they could even take any action.

If Lu Chuan stayed in Beichen City, the entire city would be filled with his spies.

"With such a significant increase in mental strength, I no longer need to worry about how to increase the number of fourth-tier corpse puppets under my command."

Thinking of this, Lu Chuan's lips curled up slightly, and he felt happy.

Next, the number of fourth-tier corpse puppets under his command will inevitably increase significantly.

In addition to his mental strength, Lu Chuan's physical physique also saw a significant improvement during this advancement.

The physical body and bones, under the tempering of the energy transformed from the fourth-order crystal core, were torn apart and reassembled, and a transformation had already occurred.

Feeling the inexhaustible strength within him, Lu Chuan suddenly stood up from the quilt on the ground, exuding a fierce aura.

At this moment, Lu Chuan's muscles were bulging and clearly defined, making him look like a piece of jade. His skin was as white as jade, firm and lustrous, and his eyes, now completely devoid of blood, were clear and distinct.

He's becoming more and more like a strong human being. If he goes out and doesn't speak, probably no one would be able to tell that Lu Chuan is a zombie.

Next, Lu Chuan's expression turned serious, and his aura exploded. He clenched his right fist and gathered his strength, producing a series of cracking sounds from his joints.

The next moment, Lu Chuan mobilized all the muscles in his body, concentrating his power on a single point. Boom!
In an instant, that jade-like fist, like a heavy lance, slammed forward, and the terrifying sonic boom, like thunder, echoed throughout the room, deafeningly loud.

At the same time, the powerful force carried by the fist created huge waves, causing the books and papers in the room to fly up and down, scattering them everywhere.

Having exerted excessive force, far exceeding his body's tolerance, Lu Chuan struggled to retract his right hand after the strike, feeling the tremor in his body, and gave a wry smile.

Ultimately, he was still just a mortal. Although he had advanced to the fifth rank, his physical body was not indestructible. If he exerted too much force, his body would immediately give him a response.

"If I want to squander my body's power, I have to wait until my body truly transcends the ordinary. In the end, it's because I'm not a zombie that evolved in terms of physical body. If I had the physique of Big Fatty and Tyrant No. 1, I could squander my power at will."

Knowing his own situation, Lu Chuan shook his head.

"However, the physical transformation is still not as significant as the changes within the body!"

Lu Chuan stretched out his right hand, and wisps of blood-red energy surged from it.

Then, this crimson energy flowed continuously on the surface, enveloping the entire palm. One could clearly feel that the crimson light emanated a dangerous aura.

Spiritual Essence!

Lu Chuan had seen information about this type of thing in the Blood Fiend Blade Technique manual.

After advancing to the fifth rank, both zombies and humans will condense spiritual pills within their bodies. These spiritual pills can generate spiritual essence. This blood-red energy is the spiritual essence generated by the spiritual pills within Lu Chuan's body.

Compared to the previously loose energy within their bodies, this spiritual essence is of much higher quality. Evolved zombies possessing spiritual essence experience a significant boost in strength.

For example, Lu Chuan can now use his own spiritual energy to unleash the Blood Fiend Blade Technique, emitting terrifying blade energy.

Lu Chuan's eyes sharpened, and his spiritual energy flowed rapidly along the path of the Blood Fiend Blade Technique.

Instantly, the crimson spiritual light on his right hand rapidly condensed and gathered, and sharp, blood-fiend blade energy emitted terrifying roars as it moved continuously between Lu Chuan's fingers, poised to strike, giving off a deadly aura.

Whoosh!
Instantly, Lu Chuan's right hand burst forth with a blinding crimson light. Streams of blood-red sword energy, like rivers flowing into the sea, condensed into a terrifying sword energy over a meter long, which shot out in an instant.

The blade energy transformed into a streak of blood-red light, like lightning flashing across the sky, and in the blink of an eye, it slammed fiercely into the snow-white wall in front of it.

boom!
With a deafening roar, the perfectly white wall shattered under the crimson blade energy, sending plaster and cement flying, dust billowing everywhere, and shaking the entire room.

The cement blocks that shot out struck Lu Chuan's strong body, making only a "thud!" sound before bouncing off, causing him no harm whatsoever.

After the dust was cleared away, a huge knife mark more than a meter long appeared on the wall where the blade had cleaved through, and in the deep trench, steel bars were broken in two.

"That sword energy..."

Looking at the wall that was about to be breached, Lu Chuan was extremely excited.

If this blade were used to slash some evolved zombies, it would cut them in two.

This time, after breaking through to the fifth rank, his strength underwent a tremendous change.
