Zombie Life Begins in Hongxi Village

That night, Lin Yi dreamed of the blue glass bead again.

It floats in the endless void, emitting a soft blue light.

Lin Yi instinctively reached out to grab it, but before her fingers could even touch it, the bead disappeared.

He had expected the rewards for participating in the storyline to pop up, but after waiting for a long time, nothing happened.

There were no notification sounds, no information feeds, and no settlement panel such as "Completed the Ghostly Human-Eating Fetus storyline." The void was filled with only boundless darkness and silence.

Lin Yi was a little puzzled.

The rewards came very quickly when I completed the Mr. Zombie storyline last time.

The Black Zombie Physique Bonus, the Qiankun Ring, and the Great Five Emperors Copper Coin Sword have all arrived in my account.

This time he killed five evil spirits and the Qinghai sorcerer. His participation should not be lower than Mr. Zombie's, so why is the reward not being settled for so long?

Is the story of the cannibalistic fetus not over yet? Or is there some key character who is still alive?

Before he could figure out the problem, a ray of light suddenly surged from the depths of darkness.

It wasn't the blue light of the beads, but a softer, more diffuse golden-white glow, like an old-fashioned projector slowly lighting up in the darkness.

Images appeared one after another in the light, starting from the Qinghai monk's childhood and ending with his death.

Lin Yi watched these images flash by rapidly, as if he were watching a male-centric movie featuring a Qinghai monk as the main character.

The last few frames of the film show the Qinghai monk's celestial soul curled up deep within his ancestral aperture, secretly peeking at Lin Yi, who was guarding the corpse outside, through the collapsed cracks.

Lin Yi woke up with a start, her back covered in a cold sweat.

He had no idea that the Heavenly Soul was hiding in the Ancestral Aperture.

He drained the Qinghai monk dry and burned him to ashes, but the Heavenly Soul remained hidden right under his nose for a period of time before the ancestral aperture collapsed, and he was completely unaware.

If he hadn't been used to guarding corpses, the Qinghai monk's celestial soul might have actually had a chance to slip out of the ancestral aperture, find a new body, and complete the possession.

There aren't enough people guarding the corpse.

Lin Yi clenched his fist in the darkness. In the future, if he killed a master cultivator, he could not just guard the body, but also burn it immediately. He would carry gasoline with him and leave no hidden dangers.

Lin Yi, holding Michelle, was wide awake.

He digested and absorbed all of the Qinghai monk's nearly eighty years of memories, transforming them into his own knowledge base.

The fundamental teachings of Vajrayana Buddhism, the Great Compassion Mudra, the Vajrabhairava exorcism ritual, the Blissful Union and Emptiness, the Body-Seizing Mantra, the Soul-Hooking Mantra, the Rejuvenation and Spring-Preserving Mantra…

The complete lineage of dozens of esoteric Buddhist techniques was etched into his mind.

And it's not just about memorizing, it's about mastering and integrating knowledge, as if he had studied it his whole life.

Some spells require the cooperation of others—for example, the Possession Spell, where his celestial soul is bound to his zombie body and cannot be used for the time being, unless he advances to the point where his red-eyed soul is completely transformed into a divine soul.

But most spells can be used at any time, and like his teleportation, they have become instinctive.

In addition to skills, bloodline has also changed.

The Vajra Shakya power cultivated by the Vajrayana sect within the Qinghai monk's body, which is the Buddhist power and energy, was like a small stream crashing into a great river in front of the Pangu bloodline, and was completely swallowed up.

But before this Siddhi energy dissipated, it ignited all the lunar energy scattered throughout his body.

The level of Moon Essence is not low, and it is roughly on the same level as the bloodline power of the second-generation zombie. It's just that because the time of accumulation was too short and the amount was too small, it couldn't form a significant force in the body before.

After Siddhi was devoured by the bloodline, it acted as a catalyst, activating all the moonlight.

These two forces reacted inexplicably within his blood vessels—

It was like two strangers bumping into each other and then sticking tightly together, and then a silvery luster appeared in the depths of his blood.

A very thin thread, gently flowing beneath the red blood.

You wouldn't notice it unless you looked closely, but Lin Yi knew that the power system inside his body was different from before.

He couldn't quite put his finger on what was different.

As for the influence of Tantric Siddhi on the Pangu bloodline itself?

It can be basically ignored.

A billionaire found a thousand dollars on the street—money is a good thing, but it doesn't change his asset structure.

The red essence of Pangu's bloodline remained completely still, and the purity and power of Siddhi's blessing did not even cause a ripple in the face of the bloodline's enormous size.

Those spells, like his teleportation, don't require hand seals, incantations, or visualization of gods and Buddhas; they can be activated with a single thought, consuming only the energy within his bloodline.

He himself is a god or Buddha.

Lin Yi teleported to a deserted area and raised his hand to press down on a boulder about half a person's height.

The seal of great mercy and compassion.

A muffled whooshing sound rang out, devoid of any compassionate or consoling aura, only a primal and violent force erupted from his palm and slammed into the boulder.

The giant stone statue was hit directly by a mortar shell, shattering into countless pieces with a loud bang. The fragments flew more than ten meters away, crashing onto the dirt road with a series of crackling sounds.

"This is... the Great Compassion Seal?"

Lin Yi looked down at her palm.

In my memory, when the Qinghai monks used the Great Compassion Mudra, they were subduing demons with a compassionate heart. With one palm strike, the demons were subdued and converted, and the flowers and plants around them didn't even tremble.

The flavor he produced was completely different.

There was no compassion, no salvation, nothing at all.

The only effect is to send the person away directly.

True physical salvation!

He then looked at a small hill in the distance, which was bare and not even a blade of grass grew on it.

He changed his method, made a hand seal, and suddenly pushed the energy forward.

The Vajrabhairava exorcism ritual.

This technique is invisible in the hands of the Qinghai sorcerer—it only has the Vajra Will, which is specifically used to kill evil spirits, but has no effect on living people.

But when the object was thrown from Lin Yi's hand, a blood-red deity with the same face as him and wings on its back appeared behind him.

The statue stretched out its massive, blood-red hand, hurtling down towards the mountain with a sharp, piercing sound.

With a deafening roar, the hilltop was blasted flat.

Gravel, soil, and withered grass roots were all blasted into the air, then fell back down like rain.

When the smoke and dust cleared, the small hill was gone, replaced by a mess of pits.

"Holy shit!" Lin Yi's eyes widened, and she couldn't help but swear.

So fierce!

The power was even more exaggerated than he had expected. The original exorcism method of the Qinghai sorcerer was to subdue demons without harming anything, but this one directly destroyed both the demon and the mountain.

"As expected of Vajrabhairava, who can withstand this? One press and you're immediately struck! Isn't it mighty and mighty? Isn't it invincible?"

Lin Yi looked at her masterpiece with a smug grin, her mouth stretching to her ears. "Even if the real King Kong came, he'd only need one slap!"

My fear of not having enough energy has finally eased a little.

I won't test the other spells. Most of the spells used by the Qinghai sorcerer require the cooperation of others, so I can't cast them for the time being.

However, there is one exception.

"Joyful Double Luck - This skill seems like it's worth trying right away." A knowing smile appeared on Lin Yi's face.

A green light flashed in his eyes, and he instantly teleported from the wasteland back to the backyard of the Yun County Marshal's Mansion.

Michelle was fast asleep when Lin Yi impatiently pressed down on her.

She was startled awake, but before she could speak, her mouth was covered.

The process of cultivating the Joyful Double Emptiness Method need not be elaborated upon; the dual cultivation methods of the Vajrayana school of Tantric Buddhism have their own unique features.

As a consort, Michelle didn't need to perform any rituals; she only needed to enjoy the process.

Moreover, she possessed some spiritual cultivation, though it was weak, it was still far superior to that of an ordinary woman. As Lin Yi activated Yin and Yang, she quickly entered a meditative state.

The two, one a Buddhist and the other a layman, worked together seamlessly.

Michelle's neglected Taoist foundation over the years was reactivated under the guidance of this great law. Her shallow Maoshan magic power was activated by the Tantric method, flowing slowly through her meridians and reconnecting with her own Taoist foundation.

Lin Yi also sensed a Daoist aura emanating from her body that was completely different from that of the Tantric Buddhist sect. That Daoist aura was clear, pure, and long-lasting, just like Uncle Nine's magical power.

The two forces collide and merge during the dual cultivation process, and finally return to the depths of the meridians.

The next morning, Lin Yi woke up feeling refreshed, and even Michelle got up early, which was unusual for her, as she usually slept until noon due to excessive whipping.

But now her face was as radiant as a peach blossom, her eyes sparkling with light, showing no signs of fatigue, and she looked like a completely different person.

The Double-Empty Technique of Joyful Fortune is truly ingenious!

While eating breakfast, Ren Tingting's gaze swept over Michelle's face several times.

She put down her bowl of porridge, looked at Michelle's radiant appearance, then at Lin Yi, a thoughtful expression appearing on her face.

She's been running around doing business in the provincial capital every day lately, so busy she barely has time to breathe. When she gets back, she just collapses into bed and falls asleep. The last time she spent alone with Lin Yi was more than half a month ago.

She used to think it was nice that Michelle had relieved her of the pressure of the household, but now seeing Michelle like this, she suddenly felt a little uneasy—had she been living too simply lately?

Lin Yi noticed the change in Ren Tingting's expression, but he was thinking about something else at the moment.

The rewards for participating in last night's "Ghost Eater Fetus" storyline have not yet been settled.

Why is the reward so late? Is it because Commander Xu is still alive?

A fierce glint appeared in Lin Yi's eyes.

Just as he stood up to leave, Ren Tingting suddenly leaned closer.

She wore a plain white cheongsam, which made her waist look exceptionally slender and delicate.

She looked up at Lin Yi, her eyes brimming with tears, her voice so soft it could melt your heart: "Yi, are you going out again?"

Lin Yi glanced down at her, her Adam's apple bobbing slightly.

"Fine, I'll let you off this time." He said this to Xu Dashuai in his heart, then bent down, picked Ren Tingting up in his arms, and turned to walk into the room.
