Chapter 137 The Evil Corpse
Chapter 137 The Evil Corpse
Footsteps sounded slowly, and a figure slowly walked out of the cave.
This man was wearing a cassock of an outer disciple of the Heyin Sect, and held a black long sword in his hand. He approached Zhou Shu step by step. Without saying anything, he raised the long sword and stabbed at Zhou Shu directly.
Zhou Shu took out a mud talisman without hesitation and threw it out, trapping the man in the mud, and then jumped a few feet back, carefully sizing up the cultivator in front of him.
The man's complexion was ashen, without the slightest trace of blood, his pupils were red, without a trace of expression, his body exuded bursts of strong evil spirit, icy cold, and within three feet was like winter.
He stared at Zhou Shu, his pupils became redder, his lips moved slightly, hissing continuously, and the long sword in his hand was raised, shooting out sharp beams of light.
Zhou Shu dodged the sword light with a serious expression on his face.
The cultivator in front of me can no longer be called a human being, this is a corpse!
What is a dead body?
The evil corpse and the refining corpse are similar, they are both methods used by some cultivators who have practiced evil skills to enhance their own strength, but the difference is that the refining corpse is refined from the corpses of the dead, while the evil corpse is made from living corpses. Refined by practitioners.
To refine the evil corpse, the cultivator needs to swallow the poisonous pill made from the evil spirit pill of the evil beast, and then cultivate it with a special method, the method is vicious. The demon pill of the evil monster has an extremely strong evil spirit. For normal cultivators, it is useless for alchemy or other things, but for evil cultivators, it is the best material for refining evil corpses. .
Compared with the unstoppable refining corpse of Tongshan Iron Wall, the evil corpse also has its special features. It is extremely bloodthirsty, and it can use the magic formula of the original cultivator, which is no different from a living person.
Although the method of refining corpses has been criticized in the world of cultivating immortals, it is still considered a normal method for cultivators. The world of cultivating immortals can tolerate it, but refining evil corpses and using cultivators as their own materials is against the law of heaven. Get it and kill it.
The evil corpse in front of him was obviously refined by the disciples of the Heyin Sect, this matter is no small matter.
Zhou Shu looked at the cave behind the evil corpse, his expression became more solemn, and he didn't know if the person who refined the evil corpse was in this cave. If he was there, he would be doomed to attack with the evil corpse.
It seemed that he should run away immediately.
But Zhou Shu only thought for a moment, then stepped forward quickly, taking advantage of the opportunity when the corpse was trapped in the mud, and launched a fierce offensive against the corpse.
Zhou Shu decided to get rid of the corpse and figure things out by himself.
Because everything seems very strange, refining the evil corpse is a very special secret method, and the materials required are also very difficult to come by, and even third- and fourth-order materials are used. There are so many things, such a rare secret method, but it is used in a refining method. It's a waste of resources on the practitioners of the seventh level of Qi, which is weird no matter how you look at it.
To put it inappropriately, this is another type of overkill, as long as a normal person would not do this, who would want to give a piece of top-quality equipment to passers-by.
Besides, a cultivator who can understand how to refine evil corpses must be above the Foundation Establishment Realm, so he can definitely use his spiritual sense to detect his surroundings.
The person who refined the evil corpse was refining the evil corpse within the control range of the Heyin Sect, and was discovered by himself, a disciple of the Heyin Sect. He knew that he would definitely incur the utmost revenge from the Heyin Sect, so he didn't rush to kill him immediately, but instead Even though he has been searching in the valley for so long, but there is no movement, it is obvious that he is either not here, or he is already dead.
No matter what, it is very beneficial to Zhou Shu, and it is worth a fight.
Two long swords collided, one black and one white, both using the Rapid Rain Sword Art, with the same moves, and the sound of clanging and clanging could be heard endlessly.
The Sha Corpse was stuck in the mud, although he couldn't move, he swung his long sword extremely fast and fiercely. Before he became a Sha Corpse, he must have put a lot of effort into the Rapid Rain Sword Art, each sword was extremely sophisticated , won the essence of the sword formula.
Moreover, the long sword in Shashi's hand must not be of ordinary grade. When it collided with Zhou Shu's second-rank middle-grade cloud chasing sword, it did not lose the wind at all. The material of the sword is unusual, or the sword comes with an auxiliary formula to increase strength.
If Zhou Shu hadn't gained a deeper understanding of sword tactics, he might have been defeated in a few moves, but at this moment, the two of them were in an inseparable fight.
After fighting fiercely for a while, Zhou Shu gradually relaxed.
They fought so fiercely at the entrance of the cave, and no one came out of the cave, which further confirmed his previous thought that the only danger here was the corpse.
The person who refines the corpse is either not there at all, or he is already dead.
Feeling this, he put all his mind on the sword tactics.
Like the group of bats, this corpse, whose cultivation level is similar to his and has superb sword art, has also become the object of his sword art practice.
In a short period of time, it was like two bursts of torrential rain falling alternately.
Snapped!
A flash of sword light flashed, directly cut off the right hand of the corpse, and fell down with the black sword.
Not only did the evil corpse not feel the pain, but it was even more courageous. It used both hands and mouth, dispelling clouds, fireballs, and ice picks, and issued several magic formulas one after another.
But to Zhou Shu, these Qi Refining Techniques were not too much of a threat, even if he didn't care, Jin Liuli could block them. Zhou Shu raised his cloud-chasing sword, picked off the fireballs one by one, and immediately pierced the throat of the evil corpse with a sword, ending his fate that life would be worse than death.
The evil corpse is different from the refined corpse that has completely died. People are still alive and need food and drink, but they have become pure killing machines, similar to monsters. But it also has something in common with refining corpses, that is, none of them can be saved.
As soon as the evil corpse died, the evil energy around him gathered towards him one after another, and the evil energy on his body became stronger and stronger, gradually forming a faintly visible smoke that covered his entire body, as if a layer of frost had engulfed him. If left alone, it will turn into something like a corpse monster for a period of time, which is even more terrifying.
Zhou Shu glanced at it for a while, but didn't move, planning to deal with it after exploring the cave.
He picked up the black long sword casually, and felt different in his hands. It was very heavy, somewhat similar to Chen Xing's iron hoe, but the material seemed to be better. The head of the sword is round and blunt, and the two ancient characters "Black Star" are inscribed on the body of the sword. It has a strong aura, and it looks like it is a second-tier mid-level sword. No wonder it can compete with the Cloud Chasing Sword.
Putting away the Black Star Sword, Zhou Shu stood for a while, and felt that the evil spirit was decreasing in all places except the evil corpse, so he walked into the cave.
Obviously, this evil corpse is the source of the evil energy, once the evil corpse died, the evil energy in the valley gradually dissipated.
The cave is not too long, and it will come to an end after a few tens of feet.
At the end is a small grotto, and no matter what is in the grotto, Zhou Shu's eyes immediately fell on the center of the grotto.
There was a person sitting cross-legged in the middle, a person who looked like a skeleton, the outline of the bones on the back was clearly visible, and he was extremely thin.
The man turned his back to Zhou Shu, not knowing whether he was dead or alive.
Zhou Shuwan didn't expect that there was actually someone inside, but he couldn't feel a trace of spiritual power from this person, so he was relieved that this person was probably not a cultivator.
The man seemed to sense it, turned around slowly, stared at Zhou Shu with extremely dry eyes, and showed a weird smile.
Zhou Shu suddenly froze, "It's you?"
