Zombie World: Starting as an apprentice of the Thunder King

This person was the previous sect leader of the Emei Sect, Abbess Qingyin, whose cultivation level was at the early stage of Celestial Master. She was also one of the only two people with profound knowledge and skills in the Emei Sect.

"The demonic cultivators... they've come out to harm the people again?"

Master Qingyin's voice was calm, but a cold glint flashed in her cloudy eyes.

"Yes, three villages at the foot of the mountain were massacred..."

Master Qingyin nodded slightly and said in a deep voice, "Chaos is coming... Sigh, don't worry, I will personally oversee things from now on!"

Master Qingyin appeared outside the main hall in a flash, her face solemn as she looked up at the sky.

"A powerful enemy is attacking!"

Master Jinghui's expression hardened: "Grandmaster, is it a demonic cultivator?"

"pretty close..."

At that moment, a huge black shadow flew in from afar, blotting out the sky.

The dark figure landed on a mountain peak, transforming into a middle-aged man dressed in black. He had a handsome face but an eerie and sinister aura, and his body was shrouded in dense demonic energy.

This person is Helian Tu, the current sect leader of the Heavenly Demon Sect.

He possessed the cultivation level of an early-stage Celestial Master, was ruthless, and acted eccentrically.

He stood atop the mountain, gazing at the distant gates of Mount Emei, a cold smile playing on his lips: "The spiritual energy of the Emei Sect is far richer than I imagined."

He took out a long, jet-black banner from his sleeve, its surface covered with dense black runes.

The runes suddenly lit up, unleashing a jet-black beam of demonic energy towards the Emei Mountain gate.

"You wicked creature, how dare you!" Master Qingyin was furious and immediately activated the sect's grand formation!

In an instant, the pillar of demonic energy crashed into the protective array in front of the mountain gate, creating a terrifying shockwave.

Master Qingyin casually smoothed out the shockwave, then her figure flickered and she appeared in the square outside the main hall, looking up at the surging demonic energy in the distance.

A few breaths later, more than a dozen figures flew out from the various halls, and the square was soon filled with Emei disciples.

After the mountain-protecting formation was activated, the demonic energy was being blocked by a layer of pale golden light.

Master Qingyin rose into the air and flew towards the mountain gate.

She was followed by more than a dozen elders, seven or eight of whom were at the Earth Master level.

When Helian Tu saw the Emei Sect members come out, he chuckled in a low voice, "You've finally come out. I thought you were going to stay inside like turtles forever."

Abbess Qingyin stood in the void, gently flicking her whisk: "Demon, you have trespassed into the gates of my Emei Mountain. Do you wish to die?"

"court death?"

Helian Tu chuckled, "I heard that the Emei Sect has abundant spiritual energy, so I came here specifically to take a look."

"If you know what's good for you, hand over the spiritual vein voluntarily, and I might consider sparing your lives."

"A fool's dream!"

Master Qingyin stopped wasting words with him, waved her whisk, and a silver-white sword light shot out from the whisk, heading straight for Helian Tu.

Helian Tu dodged the sword light with a swift movement, and with a wave of his right hand, the dark demonic energy transformed into a long whip that lashed out at Abbess Qingyin.

The two engaged in a fierce battle in the air, their sword light clashing with demonic energy, shattering the surrounding rocks and trees.

The elders of the Emei Sect were not idle either, and they all attacked the followers brought by Helian Tu.

In an instant, the entire sky was filled with various spells.

Helian Tu became increasingly surprised as he fought, having initially thought that Abbess Qingyin was merely an ordinary early-stage Celestial Master.

Unexpectedly, the opponent's swordsmanship was so fierce, each strike carrying enough power to severely damage the demonic energy protecting the body.

"The Flower-Picking Sword Technique... truly lives up to its reputation."

Helian Tu dodged a sword flash, "But your opponent... is me!"

He suddenly clasped his hands together, and his demonic energy surged, transforming into a huge black figure that lunged at Abbess Qingyin.

The dark figure opened its massive maw and spewed out a jet of pitch-black demonic energy.

Master Qingyin dodged the pillar of demonic energy to the side and thrust her sword into the chest of the dark figure with a backhand motion.

The dark figure emitted a muffled thud and shattered inch by inch under her sword.

"That's all there is to it..." Before Master Qingyin could finish speaking, her expression changed drastically.

Helian Tu appeared behind her without her noticing and slapped her on the back.

A dense mass of black demonic energy condensed in his palm, carrying a terrifying aura of destruction.

"Devil Heart Palm!"

Master Qingyin turned around abruptly to try and block, but it was too late.

The palm struck her left shoulder, and a surge of violent demonic energy rushed into her body, disrupting her meridians.

Just as Helian Tu was about to pursue after his successful attack, a flying sword shot from the side, its sharp blade aimed straight for his throat.

He had to abandon the pursuit and sidestep the flying sword.

Master Qingyin steadied herself, a trace of blood trickling from the corner of her mouth: "You demon... what kind of evil art do you practice?"

"Haha, what harm is there in telling you!"

"What I cultivate is the Heavenly Demon Art."

Helian Tu licked the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes filled with fanaticism, "They feed on spiritual energy and flesh; the more they devour, the stronger their cultivation becomes."

"Your Emei Sect's spiritual veins are perfect nourishment for me."

"dream."

Abbess Qingyin suddenly threw her whisk into the air, and the whisk exploded in mid-air, turning into hundreds of silver-white sword lights that poured down on Helian Tu like a torrential rain.

Helian Tu's expression changed slightly, and he waved his hands repeatedly, conjuring a pitch-black barrier in front of him.

The sword lights struck the barrier with a series of loud impacts, and countless fine cracks appeared on the barrier.

Just as Helian Tu was doing his best to block the sword light, a figure stepped out from the Emei Mountain gate.

The man had an aged face, but his eyes shone with an extremely sharp light.

It was the last remaining strength of the Emei Sect, the Supreme Elder Jingfa Zhenren, a terrifying existence at the mid-stage of the Celestial Master realm.

"Grand Elder!" Master Qingyin's eyes flashed with surprise when she saw the newcomer.

"Qingyin, you may step back."

Master Jingfa stared at Helian Tu with chilling eyes, "I will deal with this demon."

Helian Tu looked at Master Jingfa, his expression finally becoming more serious: "Mid-stage Celestial Master? The Emei Sect actually has an old immortal in the mid-stage of Celestial Master hidden away."

"Hmph, daring to trespass on my Emei Sect, you shall die!"

Master Jingfa ignored him, raised his right hand, and slightly bent his five fingers.

A faint buzzing sound came from the void, and then a sword shadow about three feet long and completely transparent condensed in his palm.

"Taiyi Xuantian Sword... When the sword is drawn, demons will vanquish!"

The transparent sword shadow slashed through the void and appeared in front of Helian Tu in an instant, its speed completely exceeding his reaction limit.

Helian Tu could only barely raise his arms to block in front of him, while simultaneously channeling all the demonic energy within his body to condense a layer of black armor on his skin.

The sword struck the black armor, producing a crisp cracking sound.

boom! ! !

The black armor crumbled layer by layer, revealing a deep wound on Helian Tu's chest.

He suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and his body flew hundreds of feet backward.

"As expected of a mid-stage Celestial Master..."

Helian Tu's expression finally turned extremely ugly. "Emei Sect... what a fine Emei Sect!"

"Hmph, we'll see!"

He glanced unwillingly at the Emei Mountain gate shrouded by the mountain-protecting formation, then transformed into a streak of black light and fled into the distance.

Master Jingfa stood still, watching the departing black light, and slowly withdrew the sword from his hand.

His face was paler than before, clearly indicating that the sword strike had consumed a large amount of his magical power.

Abbess Qingyin flew over: "Supreme Elder! Are you alright?"

"fine."

Master Jingfa shook his head, "It's just that my magical power has been greatly depleted. I'll be fine after a few days of rest."

"That fiend...should we chase after him and kill him?"

"Need not!"

Master Jingfa said in a deep voice, "Those who follow the demonic path are the most cunning. What if there's an ambush? Wouldn't that destroy the foundation of Emei?"

Master Qingyin remained silent...

After a fierce battle, the Emei Sect suffered many injuries, but fortunately, no one was killed.

This battle also made the cultivation world realize once again that in chaotic times, no one can remain unscathed.
