Then, they saw a naked zombie leap towards them, trembling, shouting:

"Old Yan, Old Yan, come and help me!"

Chapter 230 'Unknown'

"This is..."

Xiahou Jianke kept a straight face; he really didn't want to admit that the senior master he had been fantasizing about for so long actually looked like this.

"Kingsoft Ranger -"

Zhang Chengyi shuddered slightly and said in an electronic voice, "Zhang Chengyi."

For some reason, his body and the corpse energy both became ill, and he kept shaking uncontrollably, as if it had become an instinct that he couldn't control.

Xiahou Jianke couldn't hold back any longer and turned to leave, saying as he went, "Yan Chixia, I'll come find you again next time."

Judging from his hurried steps, you could tell how unsettled he was inside.

Yan Chixia covered his face and remained silent. Then he went back into the house, picked up a long robe, and threw it over. He was already quite unrestrained, but jumping around naked and trembling, with something swaying back and forth, completely overwhelmed his ability to speak.

But can zombies also have strokes?

Zhang Chengyi struggled to put it on, but to no avail. His body was stiff and he kept twitching back and forth. It was a miracle that he could even put it on.

Then he strode over, his legs swaying from side to side, and said, "Quick, help me see what's going on."

"Sigh," Yan Chixia didn't know what to say, so he reached out to help check.

"Snap!" Before the hand could even get close, it was struck by a flash of electricity.

"what?"

Yan Chixia became more serious, finally penetrating the intermittent flashes of electricity and touching Zhang Chengyi. He was fully prepared, and then—

Both the man and the corpse began to tremble simultaneously.

It's contagious, just like it is.

"Heavenly lightning?!"

Yan Chixia released his grip as if he had been electrocuted, his voice rising eight beats involuntarily.

All his defenses, including magic and talismans, were completely pierced. It was only because the amount of heavenly lightning was too small that it only made him tremble; otherwise, he might have been struck dead.

"And then what happened to me?"

Zhang Chengyi knew, of course, that it was heavenly lightning. Could there be any other lightning on him? The key now was to figure out why he was trembling.

Yan Chixia hesitated for a moment, then began to study it seriously.

Two years have passed, and in addition to his swordsmanship, he has also made great progress in his Taoist cultivation. In the past, he was always fighting and killing, but in recent years, he has made new discoveries while refining his skills.

The problem with Zhang Chengyi is not complicated; in fact, it's quite straightforward, and the answer is clearly written on the surface.

Yan Chixia initially couldn't believe it, but after several attempts and examinations, he confirmed the possibility and said, "Your body is filled with heavenly lightning, and you're a zombie. Every move you make will cause the corpse energy to squeeze out the heavenly lightning, which has caused some problems with the control of the corpse energy over your body..."

It was like the pickled vegetables asking him why they were so salty.

"what?"

What is that?

Zhang Chengyi was taken aback for a moment, then asked, "Is there any solution, such as me trying to combine the corpse energy with the heavenly lightning?"

"Uh..." Yan Chixia was speechless at his bizarre thought process, then said, "Heavenly thunder is extremely yang and strong, while corpses are extremely yin and evil, they..."

He thought for a moment, then managed to say, "I'm afraid we won't get along."

Despite his impressive fighting skills and unparalleled power across various worlds, Zhang Chengyi's cultivation was primarily based on martial arts. He was also influenced by Zheng Zha, believing that combining two opposing forces could unleash tremendous power. Thus, he said, "That's not something like Tai Chi Yin Yang that can be combined. Aren't my corpse energy and heavenly lightning exactly the two extremes?"

Yan Chixia was stunned. His gaze towards the zombie was strange. After organizing his thoughts, he said earnestly, "The Book of Changes says: 'The Book of Changes has the Supreme Ultimate, which gives rise to the Two Forms, the Two Forms give rise to the Four Symbols, and the Four Symbols give rise to the Eight Trigrams.'"

The Tao Te Ching also says: "The Tao gives birth to One, One gives birth to Two, Two gives birth to Three, and Three gives birth to all things."

The principles are the same.

"The transformation of Wuji into Taiji, and the division of Taiji into Yin and Yang, is merely the process of the generation of all things. It is the necessary path for the endless mysteries to give birth to all things. The Yin and Yang that we talk about now are just one of the myriad things."

"Holding the two of all things, using the attributes of Yin and Yang to seek the union of Yin and Yang to form the Two Forms..."

All things in the universe are derived from Yin and Yang. Only when everything is brought together can the two polarities be formed.

This is a very common-sense question; anyone who has been to school wouldn't have such an absurd idea.

Yan Chixia briefly explained the principle and then said, "Yin and Yang are naturally incompatible. Moreover, corpse energy is a downward-moving turbid energy, while heavenly thunder is an upward-moving pure energy. Even if you have the ability to forcibly combine them, your body still cannot withstand it."

"The two energies, pure and turbid, can tear heaven and earth apart."

“When heaven and earth were first separated, the pure energy rose and the turbid energy descended, I understand.” Zhang Chengyi nodded and said, “So, you mean they can’t be combined?”

"You've been babbling on and on without getting to the point. It's just a matter of a single sentence, Lao Yan. You need to practice."

You know the shit!

Yan Chixia muttered to himself, then said, "If you want to resolve your situation, you'll have to wait until all the heavenly lightning on your body is released before you can move freely."

Or, once the corpse energy dissipates and the body is completely transformed into a corpse, there's naturally no need to keep shaking.

"How long will it take?"

Zhang Chengyi asked about the topic he was most concerned about.

Yan Chixia shook his head and said, "I don't know."

Zhang Chengyi was taken aback. This "I don't know" reminded him of the fox spirit he had encountered when he first logged into this world, who always said "I don't know." He asked quietly, "Is there any way to speed up the discharge process?"

"I don't know."

Yan Chixia said frankly.

"I see." Zhang Chengyi looked at the bearded man in front of him with a kind expression and asked, "How's your sword practice going lately?"

"Thanks to your guidance, senior, my swordsmanship has improved somewhat." Yan Chixia was delighted, his pride almost overflowing from his words.

"Not bad, not bad."

Zhang Chengyi praised him a couple of times, then said, "Let me test your progress."

"It is an honor!"

Yan Chixia drew his sword and threw it at the tree diagonally above. With a clatter, two branches of similar size fell down. He held the scabbard and tapped the falling sword, causing it to flip in the air. With a shout, the sword was sheathed again.

"You've practiced your technique for releasing force quite well."

Zhang Chengyi raised his hand and grasped the tree branch. Seeing Yan Chixia looking over with a smile after showing off his skills, he praised him again, holding the branch and saying:

"It's coming."

"Swish!" The tree branch pierced the air.

Yan Chixia narrowly avoided the attack, but before he could retaliate, the tip of the branch bent strangely and slapped him across the cheek with a loud crack.

It doesn't hurt, but it's just a red mark.

He knew very well that this was not some kind of magic or sorcery, but simply the other party using the effect of the heavenly lightning shaking their body to pull him away with the force suddenly generated during the shaking.

To be able to turn one's own disadvantages into offensive techniques—brilliant, brilliant!

"Again!"

"Snapped!"

"Snapped!"

"Snapped!"

A few minutes later, Yan Chixia, his face covered in red marks, threw away the branch and shouted, "Senior, I lost, I lost!"

Zhang Chengyi also discarded the tree branch and said, "I'll stay here until the heavenly lightning is released. You don't have any objections, do you?"

"Of course." Yan Chixia smiled helplessly and asked, "Senior, were you doing this on purpose?"

"I don't know."

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Chengyi had already skipped off to choose a room.

Chapter 231 When will this end?

Zhang Chengyi originally thought he would only stay at Lanruo Temple for a few days, or at most a month or two.

Who knew that even after a whole year, he still hadn't completely drained the electricity.

Part of the reason was that he had too much electricity stored in his body and couldn't release it in a short time. More importantly, he had a sudden idea to increase the number of Heavenly Thunders in an attempt to fight poison with poison, which only made things worse.

For a few days, he even used electric shocks on himself, his voice becoming purely electronic, shaking incessantly all day long, with an amplitude and frequency even higher than that of a XX stick.

"Sigh, when will this ever end?"

On the night of the full moon, Zhang Chengyi sat on the roof of Lanruo Temple, gazing at the bright moonlight in the distance. He shuddered and sighed.

After evolution and a year of being electrocuted, he really started to look somewhat human. The color of his skin was no longer dark brown, but rather a dark yellowish-black due to the electricity. His flesh also swelled up a bit, making him look not much different from a skinny farmer.

According to Yan Chixia, in addition to its power to destroy evil and annihilate, heavenly thunder is also said to bring about new life.

After being tainted by the aura of death and then plowed by heavenly lightning, it's normal for there to be some vitality left. This is why the body and soul transmit comfort.

What's abnormal is that he's been struck by lightning every day, causing his body to gradually revert from a zombie to something more like...

The walking dead.

After all, his body had been dead for who knows how long, and no matter how much the heavenly lightning created life, it couldn't bring him back to life.

Moreover, according to Yan Chixia's research, there were serious problems with his zombie body. It was normal for a zombie to not have a soul, but it was simply incomprehensible that he could move freely even after he had lost his last breath before death.

Even more outrageous is the soul within the body, which has no traceable origin, as if it were born out of thin air.

Yan Chixia mainly wanted to secretly investigate which master had turned into a zombie and whether his soul had been reincarnated. He was shocked to find that he could not find the soul through the spirit, so he told Zhang Chengyi about it.

However, it would be a miracle if you could find the soul.

The modifier first locked the zombie's body and identity. Only after the zombie was struck dead by lightning did it take over, telling the world that it was a zombie. Then, the world reluctantly gave it some corpse energy and created a soul.
