Under One Person, Golden Light Transforms into God
Chapter 474 Dead End
Yang Hongguang cried out in grief, "Senior brother, I can only repay the kindness of the past with my life. I hope you will all take good care of my Yang family descendants in the future!"
Lin Zheng's expression changed slightly: "Hongguang, don't..."
But it was too late. Yang Hongguang stood in front of him and was struck by the white zombie, suffering serious injuries and spitting out blood.
Unfortunately, it vomited onto the corpse-suppressing compass.
This corpse-suppressing compass is a treasure of the corpse-driving lineage. It is an extremely yang object and cannot be stained with blood. It immediately lost its luster.
'Tear! '
The triple robes covered with corpse-suppressing talismans scattered and flew away. The white zombie, no longer able to be suppressed, jumped out, revealing its ferocious nature.
With a single move, Lin Zheng suddenly felt his hand go empty, and his expression changed drastically!
Another sharp pain shot through my chest as the sharp nail pierced my flesh.
At the critical moment, Liu Ping rushed forward and spat out a mouthful of yang blood from the tip of his tongue.
All that had just happened was not in vain. The white zombie had already been weakened too much, and after being hit by this mouthful of yang blood, it immediately let out a series of strange roars.
He didn't bother killing Lin Zheng; he grabbed the Corpse-Suppressing Compass and ran away!
Everything changed in an instant, and the crowd watching from behind felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave!
Liu Xiuyun's voice trembled: "The compass, the compass has been stolen!"
Ma Youcai shuddered: "I'm afraid we won't be able to wait for Yan Yan to come back, and we won't be able to see her one last time."
The two of them forced a smile that looked more like a grimace.
All the family heads, sect leaders, disciples, and children were trembling like leaves.
Lin Zheng had five bloody holes in his chest and was breathing heavily, while Yang Hongguang had five bloody holes in his back and was on the verge of death. Both of them had suffered severe injuries that had damaged their very core.
The only one in slightly better condition, Liu Ping, was also deathly pale and panting heavily. He spat out a mouthful of blood from the tip of his tongue, and it would take him at least ten days to half a month to recover.
Our three strongest fighters all soiled their pants within seconds.
In contrast, the old man with white venom was overjoyed.
He carefully wiped the bloodstains off the corpse-suppressing compass, completely ignoring the burns his fingers caused by the compass regaining its luster.
His gaze was filled with deep reminiscence: "What should have been mine is indeed mine, my nephew. I cannot express my gratitude for your great kindness. I have been waiting for this Corpse-Suppressing Compass for countless years."
Even though Lin Zheng was usually calm, he was so angry that he was practically jumping up and down.
Unexpectedly, not only did they fail to resolve the white zombie issue tonight, but they also lost the treasured Corpse-Suppressing Compass.
Once this item fell into the hands of the White-Clad Old Man, there was no chance of getting it back. He gritted his teeth and mustered his strength: "Retreat."
The three staggered back into the clan's formation.
……
The onlookers gathered around, and seeing the three people's miserable state, they all felt a pang of sorrow and despair.
"What...what are we going to do now..."
"With the Corpse-Suppressing Compass stolen, we've become complete fish on the chopping block."
"It's over, it's all over!"
With tears in his eyes, Ma Youcai came over to help Lin Zheng up, saying, "Master!"
Lin Zheng waved his hand, looking at the ashen faces of the crowd.
"The Corpse-Suppressing Compass is an extremely yang object. The White Zombie Elder has cultivated yin energy into his body, so it is impossible for him to use the Corpse-Suppressing Compass in a short period of time."
Upon hearing this, the ashen look on everyone's faces lessened by a third.
This can be considered a blessing in misfortune.
If the old man with the white zombies could use a compass, every single one of them could wash their necks and wait to die.
Some of the young men came up to treat Lin Zheng and Yang Hongguang's injuries.
The stench of blood mixed with the putrid smell of corpse poison wafted through the air. Although the expressions of the people present had improved somewhat, they were still ashen and dejected.
Liu Ping, whose injuries were less severe, stepped forward to reassure everyone: "Although we failed this time, we are not at the point of giving up. If we hold our ground, we will surely wait for reinforcements to arrive! The fate of the White Zombie Elder has not changed, it may just be a few days later."
His words were inspiring, and there was indeed still hope, which lifted everyone's spirits somewhat.
Yang Hongguang, who was receiving treatment from his disciple, noticed Lin Zheng's silence and thoughtful expression, so he spoke up: "Senior Brother Lin Zheng, it's all our fault. You didn't have to get involved in this mess. Now you're not only seriously injured, but your Corpse-Suppressing Compass has also been taken from you..."
As he spoke, the head of the Yang family was overcome with grief, and tears welled up in his eyes.
Upon hearing this, everyone felt deeply ashamed and sighed repeatedly.
Lin Zheng's expression was complicated, but he finally couldn't help but speak: "Hongguang, you shouldn't have rushed up just now. If you hadn't done that, maybe now..."
A sigh.
Everyone looked at each other in dismay. Patriarch Yang Hongguang had risked his life to save Senior Brother Lin Zheng in a critical moment.
Why are you saying this now? Does that mean Lin Zheng is an ungrateful person?
impossible!
If he were ungrateful, he wouldn't care whether these people lived or died.
Yang Hongguang's face immediately became agitated: "But! Senior Brother Lin Zheng, if I hadn't rushed up just now, you, you would have been killed by that white zombie who ripped out your heart!"
Liu Ping was slightly startled, constantly recalling the scenes just now. It seemed that as Yang Hongguang risked his life, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse.
He was surprised and suspicious, but remained calm: "Brother Lin Zheng, Brother Yang did all this to save you."
Lin Zheng was extremely helpless, precisely because Yang Hongguang was trying to save him.
“I have the Corpse-Suppressing Compass protecting my heart meridian. That white zombie could at most severely injure me, but it couldn't kill me. And just now, if the compass had covered the white zombie, everything would have been fine…”
Lin Zheng smiled wryly.
If Yang Hongguang hadn't risked his life to save him, the white zombie would have been subdued long ago; if he hadn't coincidentally coughed up blood, the compass wouldn't have been taken away, and the three of them wouldn't have been seriously injured.
All of this can only be described as fate playing tricks on us.
Upon hearing his words, everyone present was stunned.
"Patriarch Yang! You! You're more trouble than you're worth!"
"Patriarch Yang, you have caused the deaths of all of us!"
"Yang Hongguang, speak! Are you a traitor? Are you colluding with the White Zombie Elder to enslave my corpse-driving lineage?"
"Yang Hongguang, I'll fight you to the death!"
Everyone was filled with righteous indignation, their hair stood on end in anger, and shouts and curses filled the air.
Lin Zhengdao said, "Hongguang did it unintentionally, so please don't blame him."
The sound was a little weaker, but it was still there.
Lin Zheng was overwhelmed with mixed feelings. He saw Yang Hongguang standing there in a daze, when suddenly his whole body trembled violently.
"what!!!"
It let out a strange cry, drowning out everyone else's voices.
Ignoring his injuries, he suddenly collapsed to the ground, kowtowing repeatedly to Lin Zheng under the angry and disgusted gazes of everyone present: "Senior Brother Lin Zheng, I deserve to die, I really deserve to die!"
He stopped speaking and just kept kowtowing, kowtowing until blood and flesh flew everywhere and tears splattered.
Upon seeing this, the Yang family members all stood up and knelt in the hall. The room was quiet for a moment, with only the sound of kowtowing rising and falling.
Seeing this, everyone gradually calmed down, and the expression in their eyes changed.
Someone let out a soft sigh: "It's all about timing, fate, and destiny."
Liu Ping went over and helped him up.
"Brother Yang, stop kowtowing. Everyone, let's think about how to hold out until reinforcements arrive." ...
Outside the Liu family's territory, in a shady spot.
The old man with the white zombie looked at the corpse-suppressing compass floating in human blood and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
This item, a treasured heirloom of the corpse-driving lineage, is an extremely yang object; he couldn't use it at all once he got his hands on it.
At this moment, defiling its spiritual light with human blood is merely a temporary expedient.
Even so, this corpse-suppressing compass was something he was determined to obtain in this operation.
Firstly, it was to put an obsession to rest.
Secondly, it's not impossible to reverse the situation.
Of course, the latter requires much more time than just a day or two.
And as long as we can successfully turn things around...
The old white zombie trembled with excitement, which almost radiated from its hunched body. The white zombie beside it seemed to sense its master's mood and swayed with joy.
The old white-faced zombie muttered to himself, "When the extreme yang transforms into extreme yin, with the help of this treasure, I will surely be able to control it smoothly..."
"Buzz~~"
The ground beneath their feet suddenly trembled!
The old man with the white zombie was greatly alarmed. The creature's spirituality was so high that it could actually sense his malice.
'As expected...'
The alarm in my heart only fueled a deeper greed.
If one can completely control that thing, dominating the world of supernatural beings would be as easy as a thought!
A deep roar came from underground, like the hum of the earth itself, carrying a warning.
Even elderly people suffering from leukemia cannot help but feel terrified.
As for the white zombie beside him, it had already prostrated itself on the ground, trembling, when the earth began to tremble beneath its feet, just like a frightened puppy.
If there were outsiders present, they would certainly not believe that the white zombie was transformed from a zombie and was the legendary corpse demon!
One day, you might find yourself lying on the ground, trembling with fear?
What a pointless joke.
However, facts speak louder than words. At this moment, through his control, the old man with the white zombie could feel the white zombie's spirituality vibrating and emanating extreme fear.
After a short while, the tremors subsided.
Only then did the white zombie stand up again, faithfully guarding the old white zombie behind him.
The old man with the white zombie glanced at the compass floating in the human blood and said, "Having dreams is good, but you need to take it one step at a time."
The primary task at present is to use the blood and filth to gather the extreme yang power of the compass.
"Lin Zheng, Lin Zheng, you've brought the Corpse-Suppressing Compass to my doorstep. In return, I, your uncle, won't mind playing with you for a while."
The old man with the white lizard's face revealed a vicious look, like a cat toying with a mouse.
They were plotting how to make the people hiding in the Liu family's territory feel the deepest despair and terror.
This time!
"what?"
The old man with the white zombie was so startled that anyone who didn't know him would think he was crazy!
His face instantly darkened. He knew very well that what he had done was not acceptable to anyone.
But he wasn't worried. Whether it was South China or Central China, ordinary support was simply dreaming if they wanted to take him down!
He would only back down and avoid a confrontation if Na Du Tong took it extremely seriously.
Therefore, he was not worried at all about Liu Yanyan and Yang Ren escaping. Even if reinforcements did arrive, he would have plenty of time.
And he guaranteed that what was in the field would surprise everyone!
However, he never expected that he would attract such a freak!
"Delay could lead to unforeseen changes; we can't wait any longer!"
A cold glint flashed in the old man's eyes. He was indeed willing to fight it, but he couldn't completely control the creatures in the ground, as they had all bared their teeth at him earlier.
Thinking of the other party's renowned reputation throughout the world of supernatural beings, the old man with the white zombie felt that he could give the junior a chance.
It's mainly because of Zhang Zhiwei's presence.
"You little brat, how dare you interfere in my affairs? When Zhang Zhiwei passes away, I will make you, you little brat, know what cruelty is!"
……
"Oh no! Oh no! The horde of zombies has gone berserk!"
Yang Hongguang kowtowed until he passed out. Just as everyone was feeling this, the disciple on guard rushed in with a start.
The heads of the families and sects were all horrified.
At this moment, Lin Zheng and the other two's injuries have not even begun to improve. Is the White Zombie Old Man seizing the opportunity to take them down in one fell swoop?
Liu Ping, leaning on his weakened body, said, "I'll take charge of the formation; the rest is up to you all."
Lin Zheng took a deep breath and dismissed the disciple who was treating him.
Ma Youcai pressed his hand down: "Master."
Lin Zheng shook his head, forcibly suppressing the injuries on his body.
Seeing this, everyone felt reassured, as if they had found a pillar of support.
As the group stepped out of the house, they saw hundreds of walking corpses, braving the sun, rushing into the array range of the Liu family's territory.
Lin Zheng said in a deep voice, "The White Zombie has sent out all the corpses under its command and activated the Yin energy within them, making them temporarily immune to sunlight."
Everyone was shocked and had the same thought: Had the old man with the white zombie gone mad?
Such a reckless and all-out attack?
It should be noted that even walking corpses are not so easy to create for those who practice the corpse-driving technique.
These hundreds of zombies are probably the culmination of the old man's life's work!
As is well known, corpses are considered yin entities. During the day, yang energy permeates the heavens and earth, and a walking corpse would lose only one-tenth of its fighting power.
The White Zombie Elder activated the Yin energy within all the walking corpses, enabling them to fight without fear of sunlight and exert combat power no less than at night. The price he paid was enormous!
Any person from the corpse-driving lineage, given a choice, would not do such a thing!
Because once the yin energy dissipates, the walking corpse that was painstakingly crafted will turn into an ordinary corpse!
Each walking corpse represents at least a year, and sometimes several years, of hard work!
Therefore, looking at the horde of corpses under the clear blue sky, some people wondered if the old man with the white zombie had lost his mind, how could he do such a short-sighted thing!
To put it bluntly, are these people worth it?
Liu Xiuyun, standing in the crowd, said, "Our Liu family's formation has taken effect."
The formation in the Liu family's territory is called the Gathering Yin Formation!
It can not only absorb the yin energy of corpses within its range, but also strengthen the formation in return.
Whether it's a zombie or a white zombie, stepping into the array's range will weaken them to varying degrees.
This is also the main reason why everyone was able to maintain a stalemate with the white zombie elder.
The old man with the white zombie body has now aroused the yin energy of the corpses, making him immune to sunlight, but unable to resist the yin-gathering formation.
On the contrary, the burst of Yin energy caused the Yin-gathering array to absorb even more Yin energy.
At this critical moment of life and death, Lin Zheng didn't need to say much. The sect leaders and family heads quickly organized their disciples to fight back.
The two sides clashed, with zombies being destroyed every second and disciples dying tragically every second, and a tragic aura sweeping across the land.
However, within the Yin Gathering Formation, the advantage began to slowly shift.
At this time.
Four voices, as swift as the wind, charged in from the horde of corpses behind them!
"Zombies! Even zombies have had their yin energy activated! My God, what does the White Zombie Old Man take zombies for?!"
The fighting crowd was stunned for a moment.
Even if it wasn't his own zombie, he was still heartbroken! (End of Chapter)
