I Bit Everyone and Became the Strongest Zombie Cultivator

Luo Zehn's POV:

For the past five years, I remembered the profound words that my late master imparted to me. For the past five years, I lived by those words, following them to the letter.

"Live On." Those were the words that my late master etched in my mind.

That's why I tried so hard to overcome my muscle-headedness. And on my path to overcoming my one and only weakness, I stumbled upon ancient teaching that required sheer focus and unbreakable will. It was a practice that existed for generations, and yet it almost died due to the new era when cultivation, along with the elements, arose from the scene.

Even though it was a primitive-like technique, I decided to learn it in order to become stronger and live on.

That's right, it was the way of a Samurai.

Four years ago, I took the way of the sword and practiced nonstop, until I was able to implement my element into it. And when I reached the peak of the samurai, I was ordered to scout the area and clear them of any potentially dangerous rabid humans.

After traveling for days, I arrived at a city where there were little to no rabid humans. This made me bewildered since most of the cities were filled to the brim with rabid humans. Such was the case with every city I had scouted. Even a small town would at least have a thousand rabid humans and yet this city only had at least a hundred. After contemplating much about it, I concluded that maybe the city has some powerful zombie hunter in it, or maybe some sort of strong infected was there and it had all the infected under it.

I was surprised to find out that both of my conclusions were spot on.

The moment I arrived at the center of the city, I saw a somewhat weak human being who was standing up to hundreds of infected. Even though he looked like he was struggling, he was overpowering all the infected so I didn't bother interfering with his fight.

For some reason, I felt some sort of connection with the person even though I was confident that I never once met him in my life. Even his expressions when he fought were familiar to me. That's why the person's existence bothered me a little bit. Who is he? What is he doing in this zombie-infested city? And why does he bother fighting such small fries when he could easily escape?

Those questions made me wonder who the person was so I decided to stay.

And my decision was rightfully so since a Stage-Two High Leveled Infected appeared. It didn't take long for me to figure out that the person I was intently watching wouldn't be able to take care of it so I decided to step in. Tensing my ankles, I grabbed the hilt of my sword. It took me a second to reach where the infected was since I used all my power to charge at it. I foresaw that the infected was about to slap the person away so I didn't waste any time in attacking it.

With full force, I drew my sword and slashed the infected's neck in one sweep motion. A circular flash of white light glinted in front of the person's eyes before I dropped to the ground, sliced my sword in the air again to get rid of the blood smears, and returned it on its scabbard.

"Are you okay?" I asked, staring straight into the person's eyes.

.....

Back to the present.

Tang Yongrui's POV:

"Oh no, I said his name! Why did I slip? Why did I do that? Wait, he doesn't recognize me, right? What if he recognizes me right now? What do I do?" I muttered to myself as I slowly made my way to the Stage-Two High Leveled rabid human that Luo Zehn eliminated.

Out of the corner of my eyes, I could see that Luo Zehn was looking at me with the most perplexed look he could ever give. As much as I hate to admit it, I feel a cold chill run down my spine as I slowly walked.

<Do you want to make this zombie your subordinate?>

<Yes/No>

Once again, the prompt appeared in front of me but this time, I didn't hesitate to click yes. And then, the black smoke appeared in front of me again, as if I was summoning some sort of evil entity from a different dimension. The smoke rose up until violet streaks emerged from it. Just like before, the smoke materialized and transformed into a silhouette of the Stage-Two High Leveled rabid human.

"Store!" I shouted.

"Yongrui, the store is locked until you reach level ten. You cannot open it yet." The System warned me.

"No, I meant, store the rabid human in my barracks." I hissed back at the system.

"Oh, sorry."

<You've earned 100 exp>

<Exp 300/1020>

<Zombie Master proficiency has reached level 3>

<Your Dark Element reached level 2>

<Zombie Barracks 2/115>

After my little bickering with the system, a series of notifications erupted once again. I was kind of getting used to it so I didn't bother listening to everything. What I do know is that my Dark Element leveled up even though I have no clue what it was. As for my zombie master proficiency, I do think that it's got something to do with getting rabid human subordinates so I won't have any problems leveling it up in the future.

"Who are you? And what was that?!" Luo Zehn exclaimed as he came up to me. "And how do you know my name?"

As soon as he asked me that, my mind went haywire since I didn't know how to reply. In the end, the next best thing that I could think of was to deflect the question. That means... acting mode on!

"Hoh hoh, are you approaching me?" I glared at him as I held my arms outstretched. "Instead of running away, you're coming right at me?"

"I can't beat the, you know, out of you without getting closer." Luo Zehn answered. He certainly knows where I'm going with it.

"Hoh hoh, then come as close as you like!"

At first, I thought he knew what I was referencing to but to my surprise, he had no idea! Even though he answered so perfectly, he didn't know what I meant!

That's why I never expected him to come seriously at me.

Before I knew it, he was charging straight at me with the sword pointing at my neck. I sidestepped and slapped the sword away from me using the back of my palms. Thanks to my heightened senses, I was able to foresee where he was trying to cut so I was able to deflect it.

"Who are you? How are you able to deflect my attack even when you're just in the Spirit Realm?" Luo Zehn asked.

"Stop it! I was kidding! I'm not an enemy!" I reasoned out as quickly as I could before he could attack me a second time. "I was just pretending not to know you but I heard from someone about you. You're Luo Zehn, the samurai, right?"

"Yes, I am." He said, his eyes narrowing even further.

I knew it, even your naming sense is still muscle headed to the core.
