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

Chapter 432 A New Zombie King Appears!
After learning about Qi Qi's strength, Lu Chuan felt confident and returned to the base city with Qi Qi.

With Qi Qi's current strength, it's safe to say that even if Lu Chuan himself were to take action, he would have a hard time dealing with her.

After all, the gap between the fifth and sixth tiers is almost insurmountable. Although Lu Chuan, the sixth-tier zombie king, has quite a few fifth-tier zombie puppets under his command, he only has one sixth-tier zombie puppet so far: Undying Number One.

While Undying Number One might be the strongest among all the evolved zombies, it would be completely outmatched when facing Seven Seven, who possesses both time manipulation and telekinesis abilities.

One telekinetic control is enough to make the Undying Number One suffer, not to mention that Qi Qi also has a strange time control.

Afterwards, Lu Chuan sent Qi Qi back to her room to consolidate her cultivation, while he went to the kitchen to prepare a sumptuous dinner for Qi Qi to celebrate her successful breakthrough to the sixth rank and becoming a powerful sixth-rank evolver.

……

Time passed by little by little, and a week had gone by in the blink of an eye.

During this time, Lu Chuan was busy hunting ferocious fish in the Li River to serve as flesh and blood feed for the zombie breeding base. After all, most of the evolved zombies in the base had been consumed because they helped Undying Number One advance, and new evolved zombies were urgently needed to replenish the base.

Ji Ruxue, aside from helping Lu Chuan hunt, spent her days in her bedroom diligently cultivating.

Although her cultivation level has now advanced to the sixth rank, reaching a height that is difficult for ordinary people to reach, Ji Ruxue is clearly not satisfied with this. With the invasion of alien races imminent, a sixth-rank cultivation level is nothing in front of those alien races. She wants to become stronger.

Lijiang Base City, Zombie Breeding Base No. 2.

Under Lu Chuan's mental control, the group of corpse puppets arrived at the stairs.

Looking at the number of evolved zombies inside the wall below, Lu Chuan couldn't help but show a satisfied expression.

After a week of feeding, the zombie breeding base has accumulated quite a few second and third-tier evolved zombies, which can now help him advance to the fifth-tier zombie puppet.

Bang bang bang~
The next moment, Tyrant No. 1 and the other corpse puppets jumped down from the wall and began to slaughter the evolved zombies inside. After going through the previous process, they transformed the zombie crystal cores in their hands into fourth-tier corpse puppets and then obtained enough crystal cores from the fourth-tier corpse puppets.

Half an hour later, Lu Chuan successfully obtained four fourth-order crystal cores.

Next, Lu Chuan, along with Ji Ruxue and the crystal core, rode in a convoy towards the Li River.

Wow~
On the wide Li River, waves surged and rippled, carrying a gentle river breeze that swept across the riverbank.

Lu Chuan and Ji Ruxue, along with a group of corpse puppets, arrived at the shore.

boom!
Under Lu Chuan's will, a column of water suddenly burst open in the middle of the river, and a gray-brown figure rushed out of the water.

"roar~"

With a roar, Yu Shui No. 1, its body lifted by the swirling water, moved rapidly across the surface and soon reached the shore.

As the Yushui No. 1 arrived, the waves it stirred up also arrived, crashing heavily onto the water's surface and splashing everywhere.

Lu Chuan took two steps back slightly to avoid the splashing water, and then handed the four fourth-order crystal cores in his hand to Yu Shui No. 1 to consume.

Instantly, after consuming four fourth-tier crystal cores, just like the previous advancements of the corpse puppet, violent energy raged through the body of Yu Shui No. 1, nourishing and tempering every part of its flesh.

"Ho ho ho~"

Trembling all over and roaring repeatedly, Yu Shui No. 1 also lost control of the water flow. The whirlpool beneath it collapsed and disappeared into the river.

Meanwhile, Yu Shui No. 1 could only lie stiffly on the water's surface, its body trembling, causing ripples to spread across the surrounding water. As time passed, the aura emanating from Yu Shui No. 1 grew stronger and stronger, and the violent energy continuously propelled it towards the fifth tier.

When its aura reached the peak of the fifth rank, the energy within Yu Shui No. 1 quickly seemed to find an outlet, frantically converging towards a single point within its body.

Rumble~
A torrent of energy surged through the meridians, eventually disappearing at that single point. Outwardly, the aura of the Water Control No. 1, which had already reached the peak of the fourth rank, began to slowly advance towards the fifth rank.

boom!
The next moment, a powerful aura belonging to the fifth rank surged out from the Water Control No. 1, and a strange blue spiritual light swept in all directions. Instantly, the river surface, which was rippling around, became turbulent, just like boiling water, with waves crashing incessantly.

"Roar!"

Upon successfully breaking through, Yushui No. 1 let out a joyful roar, causing whirlpools to rise below it. Its body was instantly lifted into the sky by the water column.

At the same time, under the control of Yushui No. 1, jets of water shot out from the river surface, piercing the sky, with a deafening roar, creating quite a spectacle.

Looking at the successfully completed Yushui-1, Lu Chuan smiled slightly.

This time, with the advancement to the fifth rank, the external form of Yu Shui No. 1 did not change much, but its physique was greatly enhanced.

Lu Chuan was quite satisfied with the two skills that it had awakened, as they met his expectations for the future of Yushui No. 1.

One of the skills, named Water Control by Lu Chuan, is an enhancement of the previous water control ability of Yu Shui No. 1, making Yu Shui No. 1's water control ability more than ten times stronger than before.

Another skill, which Lu Chuan named Water Spirit Body, is similar to Flame No. 1's Fire Spirit Body. It allows the user to transform into an element, turning their body into a stream of water and merging into the river.

Immediately, Lu Chuan decided to go on a hunt with Qi Qi, which would also be a good opportunity to see the strength of Yu Shui No. 1 after it advanced to the fifth rank.

Rumble~
In an instant, the river surface was in turmoil. Under the powerful water control capabilities of the Yushui No. 1, the water of the Li River surged, and large eddies formed in the river, constantly stirring.

Soon, the river waves, carrying a large number of mutated ferocious fish, swept towards the shore.

Upon seeing the large number of ferocious fish on the shore, Lu Chuan's eyes lit up, and he and Qi Qi happily began hunting them.

Before long, the hunting mission was completed, a full third faster than before.

"However, it's time to hunt somewhere else."

Lu Chuan frowned slightly as he noticed the number of ferocious fish in the water had visibly decreased.

Fortunately, the Li River is very long, and even if there are fewer ferocious fish in this section, you can still hunt them further downstream.

……

Long Province, Jiangzhou Base City.

The atmosphere inside the meeting room was extremely heavy.

The base city commander, his brow furrowed, stared at the officer who had just entered and asked in a deep voice, "What's the result? How could a zombie horde appear in my Jiangzhou City?"

"Sir, after investigation, there is a very high probability that this zombie horde is being controlled by a zombie king," the officer said with a grim expression.

what?
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the high-ranking officials present changed drastically, and their eyes revealed despair.
