Chapter 18: One move away, the Corpse King descends [Happy New Year, fellow Taoists]
"Aren't you going back to Luoxia?"
Zhang Da was stunned for a moment, then seemed to understand what Zhang Wei meant, and said to himself: "Oh, that's right, Mr. Li's family has moved to Luyang City, and there are no one of us in Luoxia City, so just go back to your hometown."
However, his fantasy was ruthlessly shattered by Zhang Wei, who shook his head and said: "No, I mean go back! Go back to the village!"
"Huh? Going back? But..."
Zhang Da was dumbfounded, his big eyes revealed full of confusion, and he had no idea what Mr. Zhang Er was thinking.
You just said you were leaving, but as soon as we left the camp gate, you wanted to go back?
"Do as I say!"
Zhang Wei said seriously: "I suspect that Luoxia City will be very dangerous tonight. It would be safer to stay in the village."
Da opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he chose to believe Zhang Wei.
Who can let someone be the master? Not to mention that Zhang Wei's martial arts is now higher than his own, so he can only obey Master Zhang Er.
"yes."
Zhang Da obediently turned the car around and drove back to the camp, bewildering all the martial arts people and casual cultivators who had not yet had time to leave.
What are you doing, driving out in the middle of the night just to walk around the campground?
But Zhang Wei turned a blind eye to everyone's looks as if they were looking at fools. Now all he could think about was what Zhang Da said just now.
The mountain temple where he took shelter from the rain was at least a hundred miles away from here, but Zhang Da actually saw a tomb robber who turned into a corpse slave here!
The corpse chaos mainly occurred in the area at the western foothills of Luoxia Mountain, but there was little commotion at the eastern foothills where the mountain temple was located.
At first glance, one might subconsciously think that the Tomb of the Corpse King is located at the foot of the Western Mountain.
But once combined with the tomb robber who turned into a corpse slave, it makes people think deeply.
Apart from the possibility that this group of tomb robbers had some holes in their brains and preferred to take a detour of hundreds of miles to find an ancient tomb hidden in the mountains instead of taking the main road, Zhang Wei couldn't help but think of a terrifying result.
The base camp of the Corpse King is actually not in the West Mountain but in the East Mountain! The gathering of corpse beasts and corpse slaves at the foot of the Western Mountain is just a smoke bomb he released to confuse the Wang family and the cultivators who may come to help!
And its real purpose is probably the closest to his lair...
Luoxia City!
Zhang Wei got out of the car with an ugly face. The only thing that made him feel relieved now was that his cousin Li Sheng and his family had moved out of Luoxia City early. Even if something happened to Luoxia City, his cousin Li Sheng would be safe.
It’s just the hundreds of thousands of people in Luoxia City and the second-generation passionate young people he brought to Luoxia City...
Zhang Wei, who returned to the village, stopped in front of the service point run by Luoxia Wang in the camp, gritted his teeth and walked in.
He said directly to the Wang family disciples who were working inside: "Fellow Taoist, I have something important to report, please tell the ancestor of your family!"
Seeing Zhang Wei come in, he thought it was another Wang family disciple who wanted to take the corpse beast corpse slave to drain him of the Wang family's blood. He raised his head with a very ugly expression. After hearing what Zhang Wei said, he even showed a look of disdain. With an expression on his face, he sat lazily in his seat and cut his nails.
"Ha, fellow Taoist, are you kidding me? My ancestor is busy with everything, how can I disturb his old man's spiritual cultivation?"
This Wang family disciple was not very capable and only had the cultivation level of the early stage of Qi refining, but his attitude was very arrogant and he did not take Zhang Wei in the middle stage of Qi refining at all.
But Zhang Wei was not in the mood to care about the other party's disrespect, and said directly: "It is very likely that the Tomb of the Corpse King is not in the West Mountain, but in the East Mountain.
I saw an old friend among the corpse slave heads harvested two days ago. He has always been around Luoxia City and has never been to Xishan!
This shows that these corpse slaves did not appear in the West Mountain from the beginning, but were brought from the East Mountain by the Corpse King!
Now that the blood maple treasure boat has entered the mountain to suppress the demon, it is very likely that it fell into the corpse king's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain! Please also inform the noble ancestor to take more precautions! "
But this Wang family member waved his hand and said something in a nonchalant tone that made Zhang Wei feel familiar.
"I got it, go back, I'll let you know if there's any news."
Zhang Wei's eyes twitched, and he wanted to grab the collar of this Wang family member to make him listen to what he said, but in the end he just sighed, turned around and left.
Looking at the dark night outside the house and the shadowy mountains and forests, Zhang Wei thought to himself: "I hope my guess is wrong."
He had tried his best, and he couldn't think of a better solution besides notifying Luoxia Wang's family.
After all, he was only in the middle stage of Qi refining and was unable to face the Corpse King. He could only place his hope on the ancestors of the Wang family and Blood Maple Valley.
However, judging from the attitude of that Wang family descendant, his words were harsh enough to reach the ears of Wang family ancestors. As for the fate of the hundreds of thousands of people in Luoxia City, it can only depend on God's will.
"Ah...power..." Zhang Wei sighed, his figure gradually blending into the darkness.
On the other side, the Blood Maple Treasure Boat also followed the guidance of the ancestor of the Wang family and came to a canyon where the Corpse King was likely to be hidden.
The ancestor of the Wang family pointed to the valley and said: "Fellow Taoist, based on the detections over the past few days, we found that there are the most corpse beasts and corpse slaves here, and that evil beast is likely to be hiding in it."
After saying that, Zhao Tiejiu was seen striding to the side of the boat. His eyes instantly turned red, and rich blood-colored flames burst out from his pupils.
Then Zhao Tiejiu grinned coldly, pointed to a cliff in the valley and said: "There! I smell the stench of the beast's corpse."
"It's hidden on the cliff, no wonder it's so hard to find." A Wang family disciple was surprised.
Then the ancestor of the Wang family flew out of the Blood Maple Treasure Boat, stood in the air and said: "In this case, let me throw a brick to attract jade!"
After that, the ancestor of the Wang family stretched out his hand and waved, and thousands of flaming meteors gathered around him in an instant, reflecting half of the sky into a fiery red.
"Go!"
The ancestor of the Wang family shouted in a low voice, and the thousands of flaming meteors poured down like a rain curtain, from the outside to the inside, forming a saturation bombardment of the valley!
Boom boom boom————
A series of deafening roars sounded, and the whole valley was shrouded in smoke in an instant. The continuous explosions even made the Blood Maple Valley disciples and Wang family disciples on the treasure boat have some tinnitus.
"This is the foundation building. Just a spell cast casually has such power." Liang Junqiu on the boat exclaimed.
No wonder even the emperor who controls a country has to treat the foundation building master as a guest of honor, and the establishment of a family can secretly split a county and become the king behind the scenes.
At this time, the debris and dust produced by the explosion gradually filled the entire valley. Then several soul-stirring roars were heard in the smoke.
"Roar————"
Several figures in armor rushed out of the smoke and rushed towards the ancestor of the Wang family in the sky like a cannonball.
The ancestor of the Wang family looked stern, stretched out his hand and swung it, and several milky white streams flew out from his wide sleeves, colliding with the corpses that rushed over.
Clang clang clang————
As if the sound of metal collision rang out, the corpses that rushed over flew out at a faster speed and fell heavily to the ground.
But soon these corpses got up from the ground. Although the armor on their chests was cracked, they survived.
And the milky white light returned to the side of the Wang family ancestor, revealing its true form, which was five milky white gems.
Second-level magic weapon, Baiquan Jade.
"Good beast."
Seeing that his attack did not directly kill the corpses, the Wang family ancestor praised them indifferently.
These copper-armored corpses not only have the cultivation of the late Qi Refining, but also have copper skin and iron bones comparable to the foundation-building body.
Ordinary cultivators in the late Qi Refining are not their opponents at all, so that the seventh son of the Wang family ancestor was killed by these corpses.
But for the real foundation-building, it is not enough!
On the contrary, since these corpses are here, it means that they have found the right one!
"Fellow Daoist Zhao, I'll leave the Corpse King in your care."
The ancestor of the Wang family shouted to the Blood Maple Treasure Boat: "Second brother, third brother, fourth brother, fifth brother, follow me to deal with these beasts!"
"Yes!"
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh---
The four most powerful second-generation disciples of the Wang family stepped on magic weapons and descended to kill the other corpse beasts and slaves in the valley. The ancestor of the Wang family personally dealt with the corpse generals.
For a while, all kinds of dazzling spells broke out in the small valley.
But the disciples of the Blood Maple Valley sneered: "Humph, let us deal with the Corpse King, but you pick a few corpse generals to waste time. It seems that you want to take advantage of the conflict between the snipe and the clam."
"But he miscalculated one thing, that is, he miscalculated the strength of my Blood Maple Valley!" Another person smiled with a bloodthirsty smile.
Then Zhao Tiejiu walked up to the bow of the Blood Maple Treasure Boat and looked coldly at the valley below where the fierce battle was going on.
Then he relaxed his whole body, and the whole person jumped off the treasure boat in a free fall, falling straight into the valley!
Boom———
A thunder seemed to explode in the sky, attracting the attention of the Wang family members and the corpse generals in the valley.
Zhao Tiejiu's body quickly expanded to more than ten feet away, and blood-red tiger stripes began to appear on his body, and a pair of sharp horns like buffalo horns appeared on his head!
At this moment, Zhao Tiejiu seemed to show his true appearance. He seemed not to be a human, but a legendary monster!
Boom———
The monster fell to the ground, splashing a cloud of dust, and directly killed a corpse beast in the late stage of Qi Refining.
"Roar!!!!"
A roar like a lion and tiger sounded from Zhao Tiejiu's throat, and the materialized sound wave directly dispersed the dust in front of him.
Then he took a big step, and the whole person flew out like a cannonball, and hit a corpse general who was not in a hurry to dodge.
With a crack, the corpse, which was comparable to a foundation-building body, was instantly covered with countless cracks, and then was knocked back by Zhao Tiejiu, and embedded directly into the cliff wall of the valley like a statue.
Then Zhao Tiejiu roared, and the muscles on his arms bulged, and red blood flames entangled from his wrists, and then.
Zhao Tiejiu extended his iron fist, and the blood flames turned into a blood-red tiger roaring and rushing out, directly hitting the cliff wall.
Boom!
A roar that was more violent than the previous attack by the Wang family ancestor sounded, and the entire cliff wall was cracked with hideous cracks.
When the smoke dissipated, the cliff wall revealed a fist mark with a diameter of more than five meters and a corpse that had turned into a pile of minced meat mixed with rubble. At the same time, Zhao Tiejiu's fist force directly opened the entrance to the corpse king's tomb.
"Is this the way of the demon martial arts of the Blood Maple Valley? It is indeed fierce after seeing it today!" The Wang family ancestor's eyelids trembled after seeing Zhao Tiejiu's divine power.
"Let's go too!"
"Let Wang see the strength of our Blood Maple Valley!"
Seeing Zhao Tiejiu's great power, the disciples in Blood Maple Valley seemed to get excited, and they jumped off the boat one by one, completely ignoring the height of more than a hundred meters.
"Junqiu, wait for me here." Chang Hongzhuang told Liang Junqiu, and then she jumped down with the large army.
Empty, empty, empty——
A series of explosions sounded, and when the disciples from Blood Maple Valley landed, all of them changed drastically and became the same as Zhao Tiejiu, only smaller.
But such a group of little monsters standing at the entrance of the valley is more terrifying than the corpse beasts and corpse slaves in the valley!
"kill!!!!"
Chang Hongzhuang shouted, then rushed out and tore a corpse beast with her hands.
The others were not to be outdone and rushed into the valley like sharp knives.
It was obviously a team of only a dozen people, but it gave them the impression of a thousand troops.
Zhao Tiejiu jumped into the entrance of the ancient tomb, looked coldly at the huge bronze door in front of him, and kicked it out.
boom!
The bronze door dented directly inward, and then slowly fell down, throwing up a cloud of dust. Zhao Tiejiu just strode into the ancient tomb.
On the other side, the casual cultivators who were trekking through the mountain forest and cleaning up the corpse slaves and beasts along the way also heard the noise coming from the direction of the valley, and they suddenly became energetic.
"There! They have found the ancient tomb!"
"Hurry over! Don't let the Wang family and those from Blood Maple Valley take away all the good things!"
"Come on!"
…
A quarter of an hour later, the ancestor of the Wang family, who had eliminated the last corpse general, couldn't wait to look in the direction of the ancient tomb, but the strange thing was that after so long, there was no movement in the ancient tomb.
After all, he was also the Corpse King in the foundation building stage. He couldn't be easily killed by Zhao Tiejiu, right?
After thinking about it, the ancestor of the Wang family decided to go into the ancient tomb to have a look.
After all, he had made a contribution. Even if the heaven and earth essence did not come to his Wang family, he still had to share some of the wealth in the ancient tomb to restore blood to the family.
Following him into the ancient tomb, other Blood Maple Valley disciples and Wang family disciples also followed.
Passing through the bronze door and walking into the tomb, what you see is not mountains of treasures, but the ground that has been scraped three feet to the ground.
Well, physically speaking. All the floor tiles in the tomb were lifted, and the soil underneath was turned over.
Various types of funerary objects were scattered on the ground. It's a pity that they are all ordinary goods. They may be sold as antiques in the mortal world, but for people like them, they are not as valuable as real money.
No, so cruel?
Everyone, including the ancestor of the Wang family, couldn't help but be shocked by Zhao Tiejiu's integrity. Then they spread out to find the target.
No, no, no...
All the tombs were empty, nothing valuable was left behind! This made everyone in Blood Maple Valley feel embarrassed.
Senior Brother Zhao, this is too shameless.
"Where is Zhao Tiejiu?"
The ancestor of the Wang family looked very unhappy. Fortunately, they finally found Zhao Tiejiu in front of the innermost tomb, who was using earth-turning skills to pry out the floor tiles.
"Fellow Daoist Zhao..."
Ancestor of the Wang family suppressed his anger and asked: "Fellow Daoist Zhao, why..."
Zhao Tiejiu stopped and said in a low voice: "I didn't find the corpse king."
The ancestor of the Wang family choked, his face stiffened, and then he asked in disbelief: "Where is the spiritual essence of heaven and earth?"
Zhao Tiejiu shook his head and said: "Of course I didn't find it either."
Ancestor Wang's face looked a little ugly, and he frowned and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhao, are you kidding me?"
"Believe it or not, I dug through the land here and found nothing inside. This is an empty tomb."
Zhao Tiejiu shrugged his shoulders. This look of disdain for further explanation made Wang extremely angry.
Obviously, he didn't believe Zhao Tiejiu's explanation. He even believed that Zhao Tiejiu belonged to Pixiu and left nothing for them.
Greedy, so greedy!
The ancestor of the Wang family gritted his teeth and said: "Fellow Taoist, are you Blood Maple Valley too domineering?"
The disciples from Blood Maple Valley heard this and scolded: "What did you say, old man?"
Seeing that the disciples of Blood Maple Valley didn't give him the honor of building a foundation, the ancestor of the Wang family also became angry.
Do you really think I'm afraid of you? Just a little refinement, even if you are from Blood Maple Valley, you cannot be rude to me!
Don't regard my tolerance for you as the capital of your arrogance!
The foundation-building coercion was released unceremoniously, pressing like a heavy mountain toward the Blood Maple Valley disciple who had spoken rudely to him.
But before he could get in front of this disciple, Zhao Tiejiu waved his hand to disperse the pressure of the ancestor of the Wang family.
Then he took the initiative to apologize to the ancestor of the Wang family: "My junior brother is young and ignorant. Please don't blame me, fellow Taoist Wang. Tie Jiu hereby apologizes to fellow Taoist brother on behalf of my junior brother."
"Senior brother." The Blood Maple Valley disciple was still a little dissatisfied, but Zhao Tiejiu glared at him fiercely.
"Shut up! I think you bastards have been spoiled in the valley, and you are no longer old or young. I will deal with you later!"
All the Bloody Maple Valley disciples immediately shut up and became speechless.
Then Zhao Tiejiu said to the ancestor of the Wang family: "I didn't lie, and I don't bother to lie. I just didn't find anything. At least for now."
"snort!"
The ancestor of the Wang family snorted coldly, as if he was still angry. Seeing this, Zhao Tiejiu softened his attitude and said: "This is the last tomb, fellow Daoist Wang, you and I should work together to see if we can find anything."
When the ancestor of the Wang family saw this, he stopped arguing and waited for Zhao Tiejiu to open the door of the tomb before walking in.
There is nothing special about the tomb, except that there is a black wooden coffin in the middle, and pieces of colorful porcelain covered with dust are placed around the tomb.
Combining the specifications of the ancient tombs they had previously explored, they concluded that this was the tomb of a senior official from a mortal dynasty.
At this time, the coffin board of the wooden coffin was lifted, and the body inside disappeared.
There were only a jade-carved dagger and a set of gold-lined jade clothes inside.
Ancestor Wang's eyes lit up when he saw this dagger.
"magic weapon?!"
However, when he picked up the jade sword from the coffin, the ancestor of the Wang family was disappointed and said: "It's a pity that time has passed by and it was left in this dark place without maintenance. Most of its spirituality has been lost."
Magical weapons also need to be maintained, otherwise they will lose their spirituality and slowly become mortal, or even decay. After all, no matter how powerful a being is, it cannot withstand the erosion of time unless it is detached.
At this time, most of the spirituality on this second-level jade sword has been worn away. Strictly speaking, it can no longer be regarded as a second-level magic weapon, but it is still more powerful than ordinary first-level magic weapons.
The ancestor of the Wang family looked at Zhao Tiejiu. Zhao Tiejiu did not look at him. He stared directly at the coffin, as if he was not interested in the jade sword at all.
The ancestor of the Wang family smiled slightly when he saw this, and threw the jade sword to his child in the depressed eyes of the Blood Maple Valley disciples.
Then Zhao Tiejiu put aside the golden jade clothes and gently knocked on the bottom of the coffin, which immediately made a different sound.
"Empty?" The ancestor of the Wang family said in surprise: "It seems that the real tomb is inside, and the tomb outside is the legendary fake tomb!"
Zhao Tiejiu said to the Blood Maple Valley disciples: "You go out first, the Corpse King is most likely hiding inside. When the time comes to fight, I will have no time to take care of you."
"yes!"
The Blood Maple Valley disciples and the Wang family's disciples exited the tomb obediently. When only the ancestor of the Wang family and Zhao Tiejiu were left in the tomb, the two of them looked at each other. They nodded to each other.
The next moment, the two men burst into violence at the same time and launched their own attacks on the coffin.
Boom boom————
The white spring jade and the bloody tiger came out one after another and penetrated the entire tomb! A larger tomb below was exposed to the air.
They saw a surge of spiritual energy coming, and they were surprised to find that the bottom of the tomb was paved with spiritual stones. Although the quality is not high, it is roughly estimated to be around two thousand taels.
And this is just one of the tombs!
"You bastard, get out of here!"
The ancestor of the Wang family shouted loudly, and the red flame surged in his hand, turning into a giant flame python and rushed into the corridor below the tomb, looking at the way forward.
However, when the two of them saw the scene in the corridor, their expressions suddenly changed. I saw earth-yellow formation patterns everywhere in the corridor!
This is the magic circle!
An unpleasant feeling came to mind, and the two foundation builders subconsciously rushed out of the door, but the formation patterns in the tomb behind them lit up at the same time.
Rumble————
The Blood Maple Valley disciples and Wang family disciples who had just returned to the Blood Maple Treasure Boat were shocked to find that the valley below suddenly shook.
Then the entire valley began to collapse inward, and almost in the blink of an eye the entire valley was leveled to the ground! The ancestors of the Wang family and Zhao Tiejiu were buried inside.
"Brother!"
"Father!"
On the other side, Luoxia City.
The soldiers on the night shift suddenly spotted a figure staggering towards the city gate. He immediately shouted: "Stop, what are you doing!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the soldier was shocked to find that the figure that was still staggering began to run in a strange posture. In the blink of an eye, he came under the city wall and jumped up suddenly! He actually jumped over the height of the city gate!
And through the firelight, the soldiers were horrified to find that the figure on top was a highly decomposed zombie face!
"Enemy attack!!!!!"
A scream resounded through the night sky of Luoxia City, and then quickly turned into a series of screams.
