Zombie World: Starting as an apprentice of the Thunder King

"This is... a Yin Sha Curse!"

Their eyes widened slightly, and the patriarch's voice rang out again: "How could this person possess such a long-lost incantation?"

"Qiu Sheng! Stop him!" Lin Bei shouted, rushing towards Wen Cai.

When Qiu Sheng realized what was happening, he lunged at Wen Cai to try and hold him down, but Wen Cai seemed to have become a different person. He was incredibly strong and threw Qiu Sheng aside, then rushed towards Uncle Jiu.

"Wencai! Are you crazy!" Qiusheng was thrown to the ground by him, his head hitting the stone steps, the pain making his vision go black.

Uncle Nine struggled to lift his head, looking at Wen Cai who was lunging at him, his face filled with disbelief: "Wen Cai...you..."

Wen Cai's eyes gleamed crimson, and he expressionlessly raised the dagger in his hand, stabbing it down at Uncle Jiu!

"You wicked disciple!" Uncle Nine roared, slamming out his left hand!

This palm strike, imbued with his last ounce of magical power, landed squarely on Wen Cai's chest.

Wen Cai let out a muffled groan and flew backward, crashing into a pile of broken wood and rubble.

After delivering this palm strike, Uncle Nine could no longer hold on. He spat out another mouthful of blood and collapsed to the ground!

Qiu Sheng scrambled to his feet and rushed over to support Uncle Jiu, his voice trembling with tears: "Master... Master, how are you...?"

Liu Santong stood in the center of the courtyard, watching this scene, and burst into laughter: "Hahahaha! Lin Jiu, oh Lin Jiu!"

"You protected your disciples your whole life, only to be betrayed by your most worthless disciple in the end!"

How do you feel about this?

"Outrageous!" the patriarch roared in fury. "How dare you harm my Maoshan disciples like this!"

"die!"

The Four-Eyed Fist unleashed a burst of spiritual light, and a punch landed squarely on Liu Santong's body.

His armor was instantly shattered, and his chest was dented, with a large amount of corpse energy surging out uncontrollably!

"They're still not dead?" Shi Shaojian was shocked. This punch should have been enough to blast the purple zombie to pieces.

"It must be that Four Eyes' body couldn't withstand too much of the ancestral master's divine power!" Uncle Nine's weak voice came!

Then, with Qiu Sheng's help, he slowly sat up, his hands quickly forming an extremely complex hand seal: "Ancestor above! Disciple Lin Jiu, with the cultivation of a geomancer, requests the righteous energy of the heavens!"

The patriarch, possessing four eyes, pointed a finger at Uncle Nine's brow, and a crimson light flashed between his brows.

Then, after the patriarch let out a sigh, the aura emanating from Four Eyes disappeared!

This is Uncle Nine's method of saving his life; it's a wisp of Heavenly Qi that can only be mobilized by those who have cultivated to the level of a Geomancer.

Although it was only a very thin wisp, the power contained within that aura was purer and more terrifying than any spell before it.

"go!"

That wisp of celestial energy transformed into a thin golden thread, which precisely pierced Liu Santong's brow!

Liu Santong shuddered violently, the scarlet light in his eyes flashing intensely, as if he had been frozen in place.

"ah!!!"

He then let out a shrill scream as the wisp of celestial energy surged wildly within his body, turning his primordial spirit and corpse energy upside down.

The resentment and malevolence he had devoured within him dissipated under the impact of this supremely yang and righteous force, and the purple zombie's body began to crack from the inside out, with golden cracks appearing on its skin.

"Lin Jiu... what a Lin Jiu!"

"Consider yourselves lucky today! But I won't let this go so easily!"

Liu Santong suddenly exhaled a mouthful of corpse energy, which transformed into a thick fog that enveloped him. He then retreated sharply, crashing through the courtyard wall and disappearing into the night.

After releasing that wisp of celestial energy, Uncle Nine also fainted!

"That beast, we just let him get away like that?" Shi Shaojian picked up the Demon-Slaying Sword and was about to chase after him, but Lin Bei grabbed him.

"Where are you going? They've already run far away!"

Lin Bei was speechless. All the high-level combatants in the team were out of commission, and you, a weakling, chased after them. Did you think they weren't recovering fast enough?

Just then, Wencai slowly crawled up from the rubble.

Although Uncle Nine's palm strike hit him, it was clear that he hadn't used excessive force.

After getting up, Wen Cai simply shook his head, and then his scarlet eyes stared intently at Uncle Jiu again.

"He's been controlled!" Lin Bei said in a deep voice. "Liu Santong has placed a soul-controlling spell on him; he has no idea what he's doing!"

"What should we do?" Shi Shaojian stamped his feet anxiously. "If he charges at us, should we fight him? If we do, he'll cause trouble when he wakes up!"

Wencai charged at Uncle Jiu again, like a mad beast!

"Wencai! Wake up!" Qiusheng shouted at Uncle Jiu, blocking his way. "Look closely! This is Master! How could you lay a hand on Master!"

Wen Cai paused for a moment, a faint struggle flashing in his scarlet eyes.

That struggle lasted only a moment before it lost its composure, letting out a low growl and lunging forward again.

"Freeze!" Lin Bei took out a Soul-Suppressing Talisman from the spatial stone and threw it out.

The moment the talisman was placed on Wencai's forehead, his movements abruptly stopped.

The golden light on the Soul-Suppressing Talisman shone, attempting to suppress the power of the curse within his body, but the golden light only lasted for two breaths before quickly dimming, and the red light in Wen Cai's eyes blazed brightly again.

"The Soul Control Spell is too powerful!" Four Eyes' expression was grim. "The Soul Suppressing Talisman simply can't suppress it!"

"Qiu Sheng! Get out of the way!" Lin Bei shouted, stepping forward to block Uncle Jiu's path and quickly forming a hand seal: "Purification Spell!"

"Heaven and earth, in their natural order, disperse all impurities! Within the cave, mystery reigns, and the primordial energy shines brightly!"

A beam of crimson-gold light shot out from Lin Bei's fingertips and precisely entered Wen Cai's brow.

Wen Cai shuddered violently, and the scarlet light in his eyes flickered a few times before he regained a moment of clarity.

"Lin... Senior Brother Lin Bei..." Wen Cai's voice was hoarse, his eyes filled with confusion, "What... what am I doing..."

But that sliver of clarity lasted less than three breaths before being swallowed up again by the red light.

Wen Cai let out a painful roar, clutching his head with both hands and shaking it wildly, as if trying to break free from something binding him.

"The Soul Control Spell has already locked his mind!" Four Eyes strode over and slapped Wen Cai on the back of the neck. "Knock him unconscious first!"

The force of the palm strike was just right; Wen Cai's eyes rolled back, and he collapsed limply to the ground.

Qiu Sheng rushed over to help Wen Cai up, laid him flat on the ground, and looked up at Si Mu: "Uncle-Master, Wen Cai, he..."

"He was put under a soul-controlling curse by Liu Santong. The curse is directly nailed to his primordial spirit. If it is not lifted, he will never recover in this lifetime."

Four Eyes's expression turned grim. "This talisman is extremely insidious. It specifically controls people's minds. Those afflicted by it will completely lose their will and be manipulated like puppets."

"Can the Soul Control Curse be broken?" Lin Bei asked, frowning.

"It's possible, but it's very troublesome."

Four Eyes shook his head. "It can only be undoed with the blood or primordial spirit power of the one who cast the talisman; otherwise, it can only be forcibly suppressed by someone with extremely high cultivation."

"However, according to the information left by our patriarch, the Soul Control Spell and the Yin Sha Spell were evil talismans from the Corpse God Sect a thousand years ago, and should have been lost!"
