Purple-robed Heavenly Master? The start was stalemate and someone dug him out

Chapter 109 Eternal Life
"Stop talking and drink some water first."

Zhang Yi took out a water bag from his arms and gently fed Li Tao a few sips.

Li Tao drank heavily and his complexion became slightly better.

"Why are you here?"

Li Tao asked with difficulty, his voice weak.

Zhang Yi did not answer directly, but asked: "Why did you end up in this situation? Didn't you go back first?"

When he mentioned his master, a trace of sadness flashed in Li Tao's eyes.

He choked and said: "We encountered mandrills on the road. The junior brothers and sisters fought with them with all their strength. In the end... they died of exhaustion and were all eaten."

"what?!"

"Then how did you hide here?"

"I...I was brought back by them, and they said they wanted to dedicate me to the leader."

Li Tao smiled bitterly, his face full of despair.

"They were so numerous that I was unable to resist them. I was about to be eaten alive...Thanks to you for arriving in time, I managed to save my life."

"But your injuries are too serious, I'm afraid it's hopeless."

Zhang Yi looked at Li Tao's broken body and frowned.

It is a miracle that Li Tao can survive until now. It is impossible to save him with ordinary medical skills.

Li Tao also seemed to know that he didn't have much time left. He grabbed Zhang Yi's hand tremblingly and said in a voice as low as a mosquito: "I am about to die. Before I die, I have something to confess."

"please say."

"We cultivators have been pursuing immortality and eternity all our lives, but now, I have to die young. I am really not willing to do it."

"I'm just a little Taoist priest, but I firmly believe that good and evil in this world will eventually be punished. You must do it for me... ahem..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Tao suddenly coughed violently and spit out a large mouthful of blood.

Zhang Yi quickly helped him up and patted his back gently.

"Stop talking, you need to rest now."

Li Tao shook his head and said stubbornly: "No, I must finish what I have to say. You must fulfill my wish. You must eliminate demons and defend the Tao, and you must never let the demon sect flourish! You must promise me..."

He stared at Zhang Yi with sharp eyes, as if he wanted to see through his heart.

Zhang Yi was silent for a moment and nodded slowly.

"I promise you."

"That's good...that's good..."

Li Tao murmured, his eyes slowly closing.

"However, you may not really die."

Zhang Yi said suddenly.

"what?"

Li Tao opened his eyes suddenly and looked at him in disbelief.

"I can't save you, but I can let you live in another way."

Zhang Yi looked solemn and said slowly: "I can turn you into a zombie and make you immortal."

"What?! Zombies?!"

Li Tao was shocked and subconsciously wanted to break free from Zhang Yi's hand.

"Are you crazy? How can I, an upright person, turn into a zombie? Isn't that the same as falling into the devil's path?"

"madness!"

Zhang Yi snorted coldly and pressed Li Tao firmly with a little force on his hand.

"Life and death have destiny, wealth and honor are in heaven. After death, the soul returns to heaven and earth, and the body is just an empty shell. So what about zombies? As long as you have righteous thoughts and do good deeds and accumulate virtue, you can still achieve positive results!"

"But...but..."

Li Tao wanted to argue, but Zhang Yi interrupted him.

"Don't hesitate, time is running out. If you become a zombie, not only can you continue to practice Taoism in the world, but you can also help me deal with Ye Gucheng's group. Isn't this just what you want?"

Li Tao fell silent, seeming to be having a fierce ideological struggle. After a long time, he nodded decisively.

"Okay, I promise you, even if I become a zombie, I will slay demons and defend the Tao, and I will never let down my master's teachings!"

"very good."

Zhang Yi nodded with satisfaction, took out a black charm from his arms, and placed it between Li Tao's eyebrows.

"Be patient, it will hurt a little."

Before he finished speaking, Li Tao suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart, like countless needles stimulating his nerves.

"what!"

He screamed, and the muscles all over his body twitched uncontrollably.

The skin quickly dries up and becomes gray, black and withered.

The wound that was still bleeding stopped bleeding, and the surrounding flesh and blood rotted at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The whole process lasted for half an hour. Li Tao fainted several times from the pain and woke up again from the pain.

By the time the pain finally subsided, he had completely turned into a zombie.

Zhang Yi smiled and stretched out his hand to pull Li Tao up.

"How does it feel?"

"This……"

Li Tao stood up and looked at his brand new body with a look of disbelief on his face.

"I feel full of strength and no pain at all! And...and my hands..."

He raised his arms and saw that his broken hands were intact and even stronger than before!
"That's the benefit of being a zombie."

Zhang Yi said proudly: "Not only can your wounds heal quickly, but your physical fitness can also be greatly improved, and more importantly, you also have eternal life! From now on, you are my zombie brother!"

"Thank you."

Li Tao bowed respectfully.

He has fully accepted his new identity. Even if he turns into a zombie, he will continue to eliminate demons and defend the law to the end!

Zhang Yi patted his shoulder, turned and walked towards the entrance of the cave.

They soon discovered that as they went deeper, the cave became narrower and narrower, and the corridors were intricate and intricate, like a huge maze.

"I always feel that there is something waiting for us ahead."

Li Tao frowned and said with a hint of uneasiness in his tone.

"So what?"

Zhang Yi smiled coldly: "We are here to explore this place, how can we back down just because of a mere obstacle?"

After that, he strode forward, his black robe fluttering behind him like a sharp night.

Li Tao hurriedly followed. He had just turned into a zombie, but he was still a Taoist at heart and respected Zhang Yi's fearless courage.

In the cave, there were strong winds that made people's faces hurt.

The surrounding rock walls were covered with dark red bloodstains and strange symbols, exuding a disgusting rancid smell.

"There was a massacre here."

Zhang Yi glanced at the bloodstains with lightning eyes, and said coldly: "Looking at the age of the bloodstains, I'm afraid it was only in the past few days."

In his ears, there was a faint "hissing" sound, as if something was lurking in the darkness.

Zhang Yi waved his sleeves, and a green light flashed through, illuminating the front.

I saw several corpses lying in the corridor in front of me!

They were all monks wearing monastic robes. Their bodies were covered with horrific wounds, and they had obviously been eaten by something ferocious.

"My God..."

Li Tao couldn't help but cover his mouth and almost vomited.

Even Zhang Yi, who was used to seeing life and death, frowned slightly.

"Looking at the state of these corpses, they should be those who were killed a few days ago. It seems that the murderer we are looking for is deep in this cave!"
