The Terror of the Heavens Begins with Gu

Chapter 205 The Formation of a Forbidden Zone
Another change occurred in the village; lightning could be faintly seen flashing through the dark clouds.

A violent roar, heavy dark clouds, a terrifying aura of malevolence...

Even standing here, hundreds of meters away from the village, those people still felt that oppressive atmosphere.

"Something needs to undergo tribulation? What is the Wang family trying to create? Judging from this, is the Wang family trying to survive against all odds and rise to the top again?"

"I heard that although the Wang family's zombies are terrifying, they don't need to be used many times. The Wang family has been in a panic, searching everywhere for zombies and committing a lot of killings. Who knew they were secretly making this kind of preparation?"

Those people fell silent.

A moment later, someone else said, "On the surface, this appears to be the extermination of the Wang family, but could it actually be a scheme by the Wang family? Or at least a convenient way for them to go along with it?"

An old voice, which had been silent until now, said, "The fact that almost the entire Wang family was killed is undeniable... The cost was too high. It couldn't have been a deliberate arrangement by the Wang family. As for going with the flow... I think it's more likely that the Wang family had no other choice."

He coughed a few times and continued, "Realizing that his entire family was about to be wiped out, and powerless to stop it, he unleashed the Wang family's hidden resources, intending to perish together with the enemy."

"After this incident, this village will definitely become a ghost village, a forbidden place for the living."

"This place was originally an excellent feng shui site. In ancient times, even ordinary princes wouldn't be qualified to be buried here, but the Wang family turned it into a burial ground..."

"The yin energy clashes with the good fortune, making this place extremely terrifying. In all my years of life, I have never seen a place as terrifying as this. The Wang family certainly has some unique skills."

Someone asked, "Third Grandfather, could the Wang family have a backup plan? Are they all really dead?"

The aged voice said, "I tend to believe that the Wang family is completely wiped out. That ghost is extremely terrifying; no matter how many people enter this village, it's never enough. To this day, no one has come forward with any more definite news."

The man asked again, "Who exactly did this?"

The aged voice said, "I'm afraid only the Wang family knows the inside story. This matter is too big and has little to do with us. Send out invitations to Changshan, and to Longhushan... never mind, send out invitations to all the surrounding forces with connections and see their reactions."

Upon hearing about Changshan, the man said, "It seems there have been some changes on Changshan as well. It's said that the current sect leader..."

With a loud "boom," a thunderclap suddenly exploded over the village.

The flashes of lightning illuminated their faces in an instant, causing their hearts to race.

After a moment, the aged voice said in a low voice, "Could it be that the old man of the Wang family can really create a zombie that can withstand the tribulation of lightning? If he succeeds... perhaps the Wang family can be reborn from the dead and become an underground family?"

"If we could turn our entire settlement into a forbidden zone, and our entire clan into ghosts, who knows... we might be able to rise from the dead?"

"Alas, I wonder when the malevolent energy and corpse aura here will dissipate. I wonder how the Wang family arranged it; it's possible... it will never dissipate, and this place will become a forbidden zone."

These words startled the people next to him.

Those standing here are all from the same circle, and they all know a little about magic, so they naturally know that what this person called bringing the dead back to life is a taboo.

Leaving aside the possibility of bringing the dead back to life, the Wang family openly and legitimately wanted to create a zombie that had survived the tribulation of lightning. However, a zombie might go out of control at any time, which is also a taboo.

But nobody here said that.

Who standing here wouldn't want to see a zombie born after surviving the lightning tribulation?

This is definitely going to be a hassle.

But what does it have to do with them?
They can simply pack up and leave, and someone will naturally come to clean up the mess.

A terrifying zombie capable of withstanding lightning tribulations has not appeared in the world for many years. Who wouldn't want to see the spectacle?
More importantly, they wanted to see how much the Wang family had hidden here.
Finally, if the Wang family were to create such a zombie, they might have a chance to control it and turn the Wang family's possessions into their own.

After the aged voice finished speaking, someone said after a moment: "This is not the age of mythology. The so-called resurrection from the dead is too fantastical. I don't believe in such things, but I am interested in the things of the Wang family."

Everyone tacitly remained silent.

……

Since contemplating the Dharma Su Lu, Li Zhen has offered many things to it, but he has never offered any of his own organs.

This was the first time Li Zhen had donated a part of his own organ to Damasulu.

This bloody and cruel act excited Damasul even more.

A blurry figure dressed in a black robe appeared silently behind Li Zhen.

The fleshy demon seemed to melt away, turning into a puddle of mud that covered the altar. Then it flew off the altar and landed on the face of the blurry black figure.

An eerie aura surged from the dark figure, repelling the surrounding malevolent energy and corpse energy further and further away.

Damasuru was fond of large-scale sacrifices and natural disasters that resulted in many deaths.

Although this village has never experienced any natural disasters, many people have died, and it is filled with an astonishing resentment, which is also the environment that Damasuru likes the most.

With Li Zhen's sacrifice, Damasul entered an unprecedented period of activity.

Within Li Zhen's consciousness, Damasulu had already opened his eyes, which stimulated the other two great demons to open their eyes as well.

This time, Li Zhen clearly sensed that Damasulu was somewhat different from before.

The demon in his consciousness seemed to have formed a connection with a terrifying consciousness, creating a sense of oppression that made Li Zhen feel uncomfortable, and the terrifying aura it emitted seemed to be turning his body into an evil thing.

The six-armed bat-faced demon and the spider demon simultaneously let out strange cries, attempting to suppress Damasul and restore the previous balance.

But unlike before, neither of these two evil spirits revealed their vague forms.

A wisp of inexplicable energy was drawn from the village and entered Damasulu's mouth.

As Damasulu grew increasingly terrifying, the Great Black Buddha Mother, who had become restless after Li Zhen removed the fleshy demon statue, completely quieted down.

Damasul's monstrous form almost materialized, and the shadows it created continued to spread outwards.

Any ghost face that is shrouded in shadow will be swallowed up by the shadow.

After a few screams and a chilling chewing sound, the grotesque faces vanished without a trace.

Several houses shrouded in shadow seemed to have aged many years in an instant, exuding a strong smell of decay before collapsing to the ground.

Li Zhen looked ahead.

Not far away, the banshee grabbed a demonic face, piercing its sharp nails deep into it, and slowly forced the demonic face into her mouth, ignoring its screams. Suddenly, a thunderclap rang out, and lightning illuminated the entire village for a fleeting moment.

What evil and supernatural beings fear most is heavenly lightning.

After the thunderclap, the banshee froze, her body still, and Damasul's ever-increasing aura also slowed down.

The red-eyed bat, which was enjoying its meal, flew back to Li Zhen's side.

Li Zhen, whose body was trembling, looked in the direction of the sound of the thunderbolt and saw the zombie that the Wang family member had turned into bathing in the flashing lightning.

Although this zombie is terrifying, it is no match for the vampire zombie. Even with the advantage of the terrain, it can only barely fight the vampire zombie.

Before the thunder roared, the zombie was already at a disadvantage. One of its arms was broken, its body was tattered and riddled with holes, and it looked extremely wretched.

After the lightning struck, the zombie that attracted it naturally became the lightning's primary target. Even the vampire zombie suffered an undeserved fate, its entire body numb from the electric shock, rendering it unable to move for a moment.

However, the vampire had already undergone a lightning tribulation at the beginning of its birth, so this level of lightning tribulation would not cause it much damage, but would have a greater impact on Li Zhen.

In order to suppress the problems with his liver and heart, Li Zhen used evil magic to shake his body.

Now, the thunderclap, even though it didn't directly hit him, made him feel extremely uncomfortable all over.

After being struck by a bolt of lightning, the zombies formed from the Wang family members gained immense power, becoming even more ferocious. They raised their heads and let out a roar, drawing even more corpse energy to their surroundings.

A series of rapid, throbbing sounds came from behind the village. In the mist formed by the Yin energy, figures were leaping forward on the bluestone path in the village. With each leap, a large amount of soil fell from their bodies, making a soft "rustling" sound.

The zombie that the Wang family member had transformed into let out another roar, spewing out a mouthful of corpse gas. The zombies under its control roared back and jumped behind him at an even faster speed.

Although none of the other zombies were as strong as the first one, and some seemed to have only been zombies for a short time, their skin had not yet turned the brown color of an old zombie, there were many of them, at least thirty or forty.

None of these zombies could compare to the strongest ones Li Zhen encountered when he killed Fang Zhongxin; they must have been the Wang family's last accumulation of resources.

These zombies are likely the Wang family's last trump card, and they won't be used lightly unless something major happens that affects the entire clan.

Upon seeing these zombies appear, the vampire zombie, still struck by the remaining lightning, silently absorbed more of the corpse energy and fearlessly strode towards the zombies opposite.

It had already passed its own tribulation of lightning, and with the help of someone who had absorbed a lot of the zombies' original corpse energy, it had taken several big steps towards becoming a hairy zombie, stronger than the zombies opposite it, so naturally it was not afraid of them.

When the Wang family designed this method of mutual destruction, they must have taken into account their family's expertise in corpse refining, and thus turned the entire family compound into a terrifying place filled with yin energy and corpse energy, which was conducive to the activity of zombies.

This place not only has a continuous supply of corpse energy for zombies to absorb, but it can also help zombies weaken the heavenly lightning to a certain extent. Furthermore, it naturally repels and suppresses talismans and similar magical artifacts that can restrain zombies, making it the most suitable area for zombie activity.

In their view, in such a place, the zombie that the Wang family would eventually appear would surely drag their enemies down with them.

Logically speaking, in this environment, a zombie that has survived the lightning tribulation, along with a large number of other zombies, would indeed be a terrifying sight.

But they didn't consider that someone might bring an even more terrifying zombie here.

This place is also a favorite environment for vampires.

After witnessing the changes here, Li Zhen knew that he had made the right decision to come.

Even if the Wang family's so-called burial ground is useless, absorbing this corpse energy would still be of great benefit to vampires.

These corpse energies were cultivated in this special place by the Wang family using special methods; such strong corpse energies could not be found elsewhere.

Not only in the real world, but even in mission worlds, Li Zhen had never seen a place with such abundant corpse energy, so suitable for raising corpses.

Ignoring the fight between the vampire and the other zombies, Li Zhen packed his things.

He placed some items on the banshee's back, took some things with him, and then hugged the statue of the Great Black Buddha Mother before walking forward.

Under the influence of the fully revived Damasuru, the statue has become extremely docile, emitting not even the slightest hint of malice.

If it wanted to spread evil intentions, the seal set up by Detective Li wouldn't be able to stop it for long.

Having been sealed away for so long, the evil thoughts of the Great Black Buddha Mother should have generated an instinctive fear of fleshy demonic statues...

A zombie noticed that Li Zhen was a living person and pounced on him, but was easily blocked by the female demon.

After being refined by Li Zhen for a long time, the female demon became even more evil, and dealing with ordinary zombies was a piece of cake for her.

It only needed to reach out slightly, without touching the zombies, to control them.

More zombies viciously pounced on Li Zhen.

The red-eyed bat flapped its wings, flashing a few times in the air, and the zombies were sent flying.

Detective Li passed through the horde of zombies unharmed.

The Damasuru behind him absorbed countless ghost faces and the special aura permeating the village, becoming even more agile.

Wherever it passed, even the air, the ground, and the collapsed houses on both sides were tainted with an evil aura mixed with the smell of blood.

This is the unique aura of Damasul, unlike those two evil spirits.

Li Zhen closed his eyes and pondered for a moment.

After opening his eyes, he looked in the direction of the largest house in the Wang family compound, reached into his own dissected abdomen, and removed some of his own liver.

As he chanted the incantation, indistinct sounds also came from Damasul's mouth.

The liver, which Li Zhen was holding, turned into a pool of putrid mucus at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Maggots were also moving around on the mucus.

Li Zhen spread his five fingers, and the viscous fluid slowly flowed down from his fingertips.

After the maggots fell to the ground, they continued to wriggle in the direction he had been looking.

After a blood-curdling scream, the ghostly figure of the woman flew out from that direction, as if drawn by something, and irresistibly flew towards Li Zhen...
