I add some brushing proficiency in the world of Taoism

Chapter 182 Mutation
puff!
The fire hood wrapped a ball of yellow light and pulled it out of Li Xinmei's body.

It was a turbid drop of water as big as a soybean, filled with a sense of evil. One look at it made people want to vomit.

Obviously, this is corpse qi.

This corpse aura is full of corrosive power, even if it is pulled out of Li Xinmei's body, it still seems to be alive, constantly eroding Qin Jian's fire spirit shield.

But fortunately, the fire spirit shield is very powerful and always wraps up this mass of corpse energy.

"Congeal!"

Then, Qin Jian injected a mass of mana into it, forcibly suppressing the corpse aura, and the corpse aura finally temporarily stopped corroding.

As the corpse energy came out of her body, Li Xinmei's condition immediately returned to normal. The black energy outside her body was slowly disappearing, and the person was getting out of her weakness.

"Junior Brother Qin, throw it away quickly."

Li Qinguang looked at Qin Jian solemnly, "The toxicity of corpse qi is stronger than that of corpse poison, because it is the soul of corpse poison. Just now, it was in Junior Sister Li's body just because it did not explode. Once it breaks out, The corpse poison will spread immediately, and those infected will not be saved at all."

Is it that serious?
Qin Jian was surprised.

After thinking about it, he immediately put away the corpse gas.

Such a highly toxic corpse gas needs to be taken back and studied carefully.

At the moment, the corpse's energy was wrapped in the flames of the fire spirit shield, and its spirituality was suppressed. For a moment, Qin Jian didn't have to worry about it escaping from the fire spirit shield.

Uh!
Li Qinguang was speechless for a moment when he saw Qin Jian put away his corpse aura.

This Junior Brother Qin is a bit brave.

However, it is fortunate that he has practiced the Fire Spirit Shield, otherwise, he would not be able to collect the corpse energy.

At the same time, fortunately, Li Xinmei's life was saved in this way.

"Junior Sister Li, how are you feeling? Are you feeling better?"

Zhou Shunlin looked at Li Xinmei and asked with concern.

At this time, Li Xinmei had opened her eyes, and her condition did indeed look much better. She just lost an arm, and her strength was inevitably reduced significantly.

He raised his head a little weakly and nodded to Zhou Shunlin. After thanking him for his concern, he immediately looked at Qin Jian, "Junior brother Qin, senior sister will not express my gratitude verbally for saving my life. In the future, junior brother will need me, senior sister." If you need help, just say a word.”

Qin Jian quickly became humble.

"Everyone, let me ask you, do you want to explore behind this metal gate?"

Li Qinguang's sudden opening diverted everyone's attention.

After everyone heard this, they immediately looked towards the metal gate one by one.

A zombie jumped out from behind this metal gate just now, killing Liu Yuhe off guard, leaving everyone with lingering fears.

But after a brief exchange, everyone cautiously approached the metal gate and conducted some exploration.

The results of the investigation disappointed everyone.

Behind the metal door is empty, just an ordinary space.

However, everyone found iron chains on the wall.

This iron chain was corroded by corpse poison and was obviously used to trap zombies.

"Strange, why did Huo Lingshi catch a zombie? And lock the zombie in this place? Could this zombie have any effect on him?"

Zhou Shunlin muttered in confusion, looking at everyone while talking.

However, no one can explain this problem.

Li Qinguang, on the other hand, looked down at Liu Yuhe's body and said with great regret: "It's a pity that Senior Brother Liu died in the hands of a zombie."

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but feel frightened.

The appearance of the zombies just now was too sudden. If they were the ones walking in front instead of Liu Yuhe, they might have confessed on the spot just like Liu Yuhe.

"Senior brother, do you still know how to enter the Tomb of the Huoling clan?"

At this time, Qin Jian suddenly spoke and looked at Liu Yuhe's body.

At this time, Liu Yuhe's body had completely turned into pus and blood, and even the yin and yang disk he originally held in his hand was contaminated with corpse poison and was corroded beyond his appearance.

"Oops! What can I do?"

When Zhou Shunlin heard this, his expression immediately changed.

Having lost their guide, it might be difficult for them to find the location of Huo Ling's tomb now.

"Haha, Junior Brother Qin, Junior Brother Zhou, don't worry. I made some preparations before setting off. I have already prepared things to identify the direction."

Li Qinguang suddenly laughed. While laughing, he took out a small round mirror full of spiritual light and explained casually: "This is a guide mirror. Although it is not as accurate as Senior Brother Liu's Yin-Yang disk, you can still identify the direction a little bit." It can be done, especially since the distance between us and the Huo Ling clan's tomb is already very close now. With my guide mirror, there should be no problem in leading everyone to the tomb."

As he spoke, he looked around in the mirror. Soon, Li Qinguang pointed in a certain direction and said, "That's it."

"I didn't expect that Senior Brother Li still has this skill. In this way, we don't have to worry about not being able to reach the Huo Lingshi's tomb."

Zhou Shunlin laughed happily when he saw this.

Li Qinguang said modestly: "Since we are exploring an ancient tomb, how can we do it without making preparations in advance? What's more, this exploration is organized by me, so it is natural to make all the preparations in advance."

"Let's go, Junior Brother Zhou, Junior Brother Qin, and Junior Sister Li. We hurriedly explored the tomb of the Huo Ling Family and got the treasures. Then we can leave."

With that said, Li Qinguang greeted everyone, and while talking, he took the lead and walked directly in the direction of the tomb.

Qin Jian and Zhou Shunlin both followed without hesitation.

Only Li Xinmei suddenly stopped and said to everyone in shame: "Senior Brother Li, Senior Brother Zhou, and Junior Brother Qin, you three can go, please forgive me and I will not follow you."

"Junior sister Li, don't you plan to come with us?"

Li Qinguang frowned and turned his head.

Zhou Shunlin was slightly surprised, but Qin Jian acted as if he had already guessed this would happen.

Just now, from Li Xinmei's performance, Qin Jian already felt that the other party probably didn't want to follow in.

At this time, the other party's speech was already within his expectation.

"Junior sister has been injured. Besides, if we continue walking in and encounter danger again, I'm afraid I will have to answer here. So, Senior Brother Li, please forgive me for not following in anymore."

Li Xinmei shook her head, looking even more ashamed.

"This……"

Li Qinguang's eyes scanned the other person's face.

This way of looking at her made Li Xinmei feel even more ashamed.

Li Qinguang followed closely and said: "If Junior Sister Li is not willing to follow you in, I will not force you. However, there are some things that must be said upfront."

"We haven't obtained any treasures yet. If Junior Sister Li stops now, any treasures found in the Tomb of the Huoling Sect will have nothing to do with Junior Sister Li. Please remember this." A little better."

"After all, no one can guarantee whether there will be danger in the Huo Ling clan's tomb. If there is danger, we will need to fight again."

"As for Junior Sister, since I stopped halfway, it means that I can't participate in the battle. If I can't participate in the battle, I don't have the right to share the spoils of war."

"Otherwise, even if I personally agree to distribute part of the loot to Junior Sister Li, I'm afraid it will be unfair to Junior Brother Zhou and Junior Brother Qin."

Zhou Shunlin didn't speak.

Qin Jian nodded secretly.

What Li Qinguang said still makes sense.

After all, in the future, who knows if he will go through life and death again.

Since Li Xinmei won't go, she is naturally ineligible to share the treasures behind. "this……"

When Li Xinmei heard this, she immediately fell into deep thought.

It took a lot of effort to get here. She saw the treasure right in front of her eyes, but she gave up halfway. In the end, she couldn't get any of the treasure, which still made her feel unwilling.

After all, the treasure will be available immediately.

After looking at Li Qinguang, the woman asked hesitantly: "Brother Li, can you guarantee that there is no danger in the Huoling clan's tomb?"

"I don't know either. I can't guarantee it for my junior sister."

Li Qinguang shook his head and answered seriously, "However, theoretically speaking, there will be no zombies in the Huo Ling clan's tomb, right?"

"And how could this person deliberately put some dangerous creatures in his tomb when he set up a tomb? Otherwise, wouldn't it destroy his body? Therefore, I guess that there is probably nothing in this tomb. It’s dangerous.”

"This……"

Hearing this, Li Xinmei suddenly became moved again.

After a moment, she suddenly nodded and said firmly: "Okay, now that we're here, let's just take another risk. After all, it's too disappointing to lose half your life and get nothing in the end." People are unwilling to give in.”

After saying that, the woman stood up directly.

"Haha, since Junior Sister Li has decided to follow, then when the time comes, Junior Sister Li will naturally be a part of the treasure."

Li Qinguang laughed.

Naturally, she doesn't want Li Xinmei to give up halfway.

The other party has given up. It is true that there is one less person to share the treasure, but it also means that there is less strength. If there is danger, there is still a possibility of accidents without one strength.

Now, under the leadership of Li Qinguang, the four of them continued to move forward.

This place is indeed not far from Huo Lingshi's tomb.

After twists and turns, I finally arrived in front of a bronze gate.

Fortunately, this time the door didn't have any formations, so it opened with just one push.

Everyone walked in carefully and arrived in a huge tomb in an instant.

This huge tomb looks like a huge hall.

Around the hall, there are luminous pearls hanging one after another, making it look extremely magnificent.

However, in the tomb, in addition to a coffin in the middle, there were tables placed on the edge of the tomb, with strange items placed on the tables.

Such a strange place doesn't look like a tomb at all, but more like a huge laboratory.

The dark coffin has a tightly locked lid, and the dim yellow light shines on it, giving people a sense of depression.

So much so that everyone couldn't help but become nervous.

"Everyone, look."

Suddenly, Zhou Shunlin reached out and pointed to the side.

So, everyone immediately subconsciously looked in the direction of his finger.

In the corner, there was a gray corpse lying on its back.

Some of the corpses looked like zombies, some looked like skeletons, and they lacked life.

"How can there be a corpse?"

Li Xinmei asked doubtfully.

Li Qinguang couldn't help but shook his head. In fact, he couldn't explain why an extra corpse suddenly appeared in the Huo Ling clan's tomb.

Qin Jian's eyes couldn't help but fall on the corpse, feeling inexplicably uneasy in her heart.

There was an evil aura faintly emanating from the corpse, and he even felt a corpse aura besides that evil aura.

It's the corpse energy of zombies.

Zombies?

Isn't this corpse also a zombie?

Qin Jian opened his spiritual eyes and looked at the other person carefully for a moment, but in the end, he did not see any real zombie characteristics from this corpse.

It can only be said that some of them are similar to zombies.

"puff!"

Li Xinmei suddenly took action, and a ball of flame hit the body.

The flames burned, but in the end, they were quickly extinguished by the evil energy on the corpse.

However, the body remained motionless.

This situation made everyone feel a little relieved.

At least, this proves that this corpse is not conscious.

Otherwise, Li Xinmei's attack on the opponent just now should have angered the corpse.

"Open the coffin as soon as possible and take out the treasures in the coffin. I can't wait."

Li Qinguang laughed, feeling relieved that he had achieved his goal after going through all kinds of hardships.

"How about Senior Brother Li opening the coffin himself?"

Zhou Shunlin smiled and looked at Li Qinguang.

Li Qinguang became modest, "I will not participate in the honor of opening the coffin. It is better to leave it to the junior brothers and sisters. How about it, who is interested in opening the coffin?"

"Is there any danger in the coffin?"

Li Xinmei looked worried.

After all, what happened at the metal gate before left her with lingering fears.

"Junior sister Li, don't worry. I've already checked the coffin, and there's nothing alive. Moreover, this is just an ordinary coffin, and it doesn't even have a formation. So, theoretically, there should only be members of the Huo Ling clan in this coffin. The corpse is the right one.”

Li Qinguang laughed and explained, "After all, it's impossible for Huo Ling to arrange formations on his own coffin, right? Who is he going to harm, himself? Haha!"

"In that case, how about I open the coffin myself?"

Li Xinmei suddenly volunteered.

"Haha, since Junior Sister Li is willing to open the coffin, I will naturally help Junior Sister Li."

Li Qinguang immediately agreed with a smile.

At that moment, everyone walked towards the coffin.

However, at this moment, Qin Jian felt uneasy again. She couldn't help but look around, feeling that something was wrong there.

So, he immediately shot without a trace, covering his body with a fire spirit.

At this time, everyone walked to the side of the coffin together. Li Xinmei stretched out her hand and pressed directly on the lid of the coffin. When she stretched out her hand and lifted it, she picked up the lid, ready to open the coffin.

However, at this moment, suddenly, there was a strange popping sound.

Li Xinmei's face immediately showed a look of despair and she lowered her head.

A strange, skinny hand penetrated her body from behind and directly scratched her heart.
