The Terror of the Heavens Begins with Gu

Chapter 287 Transforming into Thor and the Appearance of Li Zhen from Behind the Scenes

A terrifying aura of death erupted from the zombie's body, spreading to every corner of the top of the misty mountain in the blink of an eye.

The zombie stretched out its right hand and made a few strokes on it with its stiff left hand. A blood-red talisman immediately took shape in its right palm.

Then, it pressed forward with one hand.

A bolt of crimson lightning shot out from its palm and struck the barrier, causing the altar within it to tremble and appear on the verge of collapsing.

Zhang Yuan'an's face inside the barrier turned even paler.

Even after his opponent made another move, he still couldn't figure out what tactics they used.

He can draw talismans in the air, summon an extremely yin type of thunder, and fly through the air and disappear underground...

He had never seen such terrifying zombies.

I haven't seen any related records in books.

This must be a zombie created using evil magic!

With Zhang Yuan'an's discerning eye, he could naturally see that there seemed to be a soul inside the zombie's body, and therefore suspected that the zombie was an evil object deliberately created by someone to carry their own soul.

Could it be that the other party broke through some kind of limit and reached a level that made heaven and earth fear them by using this method?
Seeing that it could not break the barrier, the zombie became extremely angry, and its rationality was gradually replaced by ferocity.

It roared with its head raised, its stiff arms outstretched to the sides.

An even more powerful and malevolent aura of death surged from its body.

Scattered wisps of corpse energy appeared on the misty mountain, and coffins and corpses flew up from the ground, arranging themselves in an orderly fashion in the sky, seemingly forming some kind of murderous magic array.

This zombie even knows about magic arrays?
Zhang Yuan'an's expression changed again: "Everyone, suppress it! We can't let it continue!"

Seeing that the barrier couldn't wear down the zombie, Zhang Yuan'an had no choice but to change his strategy and take the initiative to attack.

The seven people sitting cross-legged on the talisman opened their eyes at the same time, made hand seals, and chanted the same incantation.

The starlight in the sky was even more dazzling, and with a kind of magnificent momentum, it fell upon the human world.

Both the zombie and the bat were extremely wary of this light.

Upon seeing the starlight, the red-eyed bats disappeared into the grove, while the zombies roared and covered their eyes with their arms.

Even a zombie cannot withstand the starlight falling from above.

The zombie was gradually pushed to the ground.

The numerous coffins and corpses that had been flying in the sky fell back to the ground at this moment, creating a spectacular scene.

A ferocious roar came from the angry zombie's mouth, and the zombie slowly crawled up from the ground.

The expressions of the seven Taoist priests grew increasingly solemn.

Taking advantage of this time, Zhang Yuan'an summoned several bolts of heavenly lightning, which caused wisps of green smoke to rise from the zombie's body, but failed to disperse the zombie's corpse energy or damage its core.

He stepped outside the barrier in a few strides, wielding his magic sword and swiftly stabbing the zombie several times at its forehead, eyes, throat, and chest—any possible weak points—but failed to break through its defenses.

Left with no other choice, he used his magic sword to slash open his left palm, splattering the blood onto the zombie's body, and then quickly drew a talisman on the zombie's body with the blood-stained sword.

Once the talisman was formed, he shouted, "Exterminate evil!"

Rolling thunder descended from the sky, engulfing the zombies.

One scream after another echoed from the thunder.

Sensing the lingering corpse energy, Zhang Yuan'an breathed a sigh of relief.

Regardless of how this zombie was created, it should have been severely damaged after being hit like that, right?
After the lightning struck, Zhang Yuan'an found the electrocuted zombie amidst the charred remains on the ground, and the sigh of relief he had just felt rose to his chest again.

The zombie, emitting blue smoke, slowly rose from the ground.

His bloodshot eyes turned to Zhang Yuan'an.

At this moment, the clothes on the zombie's body had been destroyed by lightning.

It can be clearly seen that four rings of runes are flashing on the zombie's body, which seem to be seals that firmly bind the even more terrifying corpse energy within the zombie's body.

After one of the talismans shattered, the zombie roared at the thunderclouds in the sky once more, seemingly expressing its hatred for the heavenly lightning.

Thunderbolts rained down from the thunderclouds, but they did nothing to harm the zombie.

The zombie standing amidst the lightning seemed to be the most terrifying demon in the world, undergoing a baptism of lightning.

Sensing something was wrong, Zhang Yuan'an immediately retreated back into the barrier.

He picked up the Celestial Master's Seal and slammed it heavily onto a pile of talismans on the altar, rapidly chanting incantations.

The Celestial Master's Seal was stained red with his blood, and it shimmered with golden light.

"Help me with all your might!" Zhang Yuan'an shouted.

Faced with these unprecedentedly terrifying zombies, he knew that if he held back any longer, he would surely be defeated here.

Upon hearing this, the Taoist priests unhesitatingly cut open their palms, letting their blood flow into the talisman beneath them, temporarily lending their essence, energy, and spirit to Zhang Yuan'an through the magic array.

Although they sometimes argue, at this moment they both know that they cannot let those conflicts delay the important matters at hand.

Zhang Yuan'an brandished his magic sword, rapidly chanting the incantation: "...Thunder God of the Four Seasons speaks from his mouth, Thunder God ascends his platform, Five Directions of Savage Thunder emerge from his ears, Rain Master and Wind God's lips spring forth. In three hundred and sixty joints, Thunder Family retinue marches forth. In eighty-four thousand pores, Divine Thunder Generals ride the clouds. One thousand two hundred shadows, Thunder God and Lightning Goddess vanquish the evil camp... Hurry, hurry, as the law commands!"

As the incantation was chanted, the golden light emanating from the Celestial Master Seal in his hand grew stronger and stronger.

Strands of golden light spiraled upwards from his left hand, entangling his body and eventually transforming into blurry human figures.

After those figures appeared, they all looked first at the arrogant zombie opposite them, and then at the thunderclouds in the sky.

The clearest figure flicked its fingers, and a muffled sentence emanated from the golden light: "...variable..."

Zhang Yuan'an, who was poised to act, only clearly heard a few words.

He visualized the different Thunder Gods corresponding to the five internal organs, starting from the five internal organs and flowing through his whole body with lightning. Then he visualized the five directions and five colors of energy mixing together to form a purple-gold light, which, together with the lightning in his whole body, transformed into the image of the Thunder God.

"Thor is my god!"

Zhang Yuan'an uttered a voice of utmost authority.

Terrifying lightning erupted from his seven orifices, turning his eyes into a majestic and terrifying lightning color, as if he had lost his human emotions and transformed into a true thunder god!

Immediately, wisps of lightning surged from every pore of Zhang Yuan'an's body, completely enveloping him and forming a massive "god" composed of lightning around him.

This is somewhat similar to the legendary Dharma image.

The moment this "god" appeared, the sky immediately became stormy and turbulent.

Even more terrifying thunderclouds began to gather, and the lightning flashing from them illuminated the entire top of the misty mountain as if it were daytime.

The once arrogant zombie was once again suppressed by the lightning, letting out a series of angry roars. Seeing the lightning crackling around Zhang Yuan'an, the old Taoist Xuan Gui's eyes widened, and he murmured, "Nascent Soul stage..."

He had a good understanding of the thunder magic of Longhu Mountain, and knew that the thunder magic of Longhu Mountain could be roughly divided into three levels.

The first level is simply controlling the thunder.

The second level involves setting up an altar to summon the Thunder God to come and assist.

Although the gods are nowhere to be seen in this era, and it is difficult to get even a word from the true gods, the Taoists of Longhu Mountain can still receive help once they set up an altar, under the influence of the Heavenly Way, or rather, the rules.

This level is beyond the reach of ordinary Taoist priests from Longhu Mountain.

As far as he knew, there were only a dozen or so Taoist priests in Longhu Mountain who could set up altars to invite the Thunder Gods for assistance.

The third level is "Transformation into a Spirit".

This level is a step above the second level, deifying the Thunder God, manipulating heavenly thunder, slaying evil and destroying demons, and being invincible. It is the manifestation of the highest level of thunder magic cultivation.

In Longhu Mountain, including the Celestial Master, only two or three people have cultivated thunder magic to this level.

Although it took so many people and the help of the Celestial Master's Seal to reach this level, it also shows how profound Zhang Yuan'an's thunder magic is.

After this spell is cast, the person will naturally be able to enter this level.

Therefore, Zhang Yuan'an should be the next Celestial Master.

The old Taoist priest Xuan Gui looked at the zombie in the distance, his heart pounding faster and faster.

The battle is about to be decided...

If this zombie doesn't have some hidden tricks up its sleeve, the consequences could be dire.

After setting down the Celestial Master's Seal, Zhang Yuan'an stepped outside the barrier.

The towering figure formed from lightning possessed a terrifying aura and an incredibly oppressive presence.

Thunderbolts continued to fall from the thunderclouds in the sky, as if Zhang Yuan'an had become one with the heavens and had become a true thunder god who carried out punishments on behalf of heaven.

"Evil and heretical practices must be suppressed!"

Carrying blinding lightning, Zhang Yuan'an crashed into the zombie.

After a deafening roar, the zombies roared even more furiously.

A torrent of corpse energy, carrying terrifying corpse poison, surged wildly from the zombies, turning half of the top of Fog Mountain into a horrific place ravaged by the corpse poison.

The corpse poison, like living matter, spread continuously in the air, searching for life to devour.

Even the barrier itself was gradually being infected by the corpse energy, turning it a dark gray color, and it seemed about to collapse.

The top of the misty mountain has become a place where thunder and corpse energy confront each other.

The lightning erupting from Zhang Yuan'an ultimately prevailed, suppressing the corpse energy and causing a large amount of corpse energy and poison to dissipate.

The zombie's eyes became even more ferocious.

It opened its mouth and inhaled sharply backward, drawing a large amount of lightning directly into its mouth.

After a series of crackling sounds, a large amount of blue smoke rose from the zombie's body.

Although it can also control lightning, in its current state, it is clearly no match for Zhang Yuan'an after he has reached the "Transformation of Godhood" in terms of lightning magic. Therefore, it suffers a loss in this aspect and can only use its corpse energy and zombie body to withstand the heavenly lightning head-on, which naturally leads to a loss.

Zhang Yuan'an closed in, and his lightning-infused magic sword pierced the zombie's chest, this time directly piercing its heart.

Corpse poison surged, and visible gray gathered on the zombie's chest, climbing up the magic sword.

When Zhang Yuan'an drew his magic sword, he saw that the part of the sword that had pierced into the zombie's body was already corroded and pitted.

Looking at the zombie again, he noticed that the wound on its chest was slowly healing.

Stimulated by the thunder, the wound healed slowly, but it was eventually repairing itself.

How could such a bizarre thing exist in this environment?
Zhang Yuan'an threw the magic sword back into the barrier and pressed it down on the terrifying zombie with one hand.

Lightning flashed, and his figure grew taller and taller, while more and more lightning bolts descended from the thunderclouds.

The top of the fog-shrouded mountain became increasingly bright and eye-catching.

At this moment, most people in Dongyang City were focused on the top of Wushan Mountain.

Some people guessed what had happened here, but most people didn't know what was going on; they only saw lightning constantly falling on the top of the misty mountain.

In a short time, a rumor that a demon was undergoing tribulation at the top of the misty mountain spread across the internet.

The atmosphere at the top of Wushan Mountain was very somber, and judging from the expressions of everyone present, no one was not nervous.

As the old Taoist Xuan Gui watched as the purple lightning emanating from Zhang Yuan'an formed a dense network, slowly pressing the zombie to the ground, he felt a mix of emotions.

ended?
Did Zhang Yuan'an win this match?
Just as he began to assess the implications of this outcome, the situation on the other side seemed to take an unexpected turn, drawing his attention once again.

The other Taoists also noticed the anomaly and became tense again.

……

Zhang Yuan'an clenched his fist, and even denser purple lightning appeared, then exploded above the zombie, completely shattering its corpse energy and knocking it to the ground.

The zombie was enraged to the extreme, all reason vanished from its eyes, and it was completely replaced by ferocity.

It raised its head and roared at Zhang Yuan'an. The rings of runes on its body reappeared, and one of the runes seemed about to collapse.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Yuan'an suddenly had a very bad premonition.

It was as if something terrible would happen if the spell were to break down.

A terrible thought resurfaced in his mind—

Could this zombie be a sealed zombie, and its current state is not its full power?

If that's the case, how terrifying would this zombie be in its prime?
We must not let the worst-case scenario happen!

Zhang Yuan'an clenched his fists, summoning even more purple lightning.

Suddenly, a scarred arm appeared out of thin air, breaking through the blockade of numerous lightning bolts, and touched the zombie's forehead with its index finger, instantly calming the restless zombie down.

Then, the arm twisted, seemingly unafraid of the heavenly lightning, and pierced into the sky full of purple lightning, carrying with it a terrifying evil aura.

The moment Zhang Yuan'an saw the hand suddenly appear, his expression changed drastically.

Seeing that hand easily break through the terrifying heavenly lightning and come into contact with the zombie, how could he not know how terrifying that arm was?
Upon seeing that his opponent had attacked him directly, he sensed danger and instinctively used his full power, summoning a large amount of purple lightning.

Without a sound, the arm broke through the shattering lightning and touched Zhang Yuan'an's palm with two fingers...
