Chen Luo discovered he could scavenge the minds of the dead.
So he went to a graveyard and scavenge the brain of a deceased Great Emperor, figuring he’d borrow it for a bit.
While other...
On another hill, five young men gathered on the top floor of a red building. Looking at the black river water that had risen to the threshold, their faces became increasingly ugly.
"Even the corpse of our ancestor cannot calm the river water." A trace of anxiety flashed across the face of the young man in the lead.
They had nowhere to escape.
Once the river floods the wooden building, the "tribesmen" in the river will immediately sense them. At that time, they will face a constant stream of siege and killing.
There is no end and there will be no end until death.
"We must drag these three old guys into this. Otherwise, if we continue like this, we won't be able to survive for more than five days."
Five days is one tide.
After the tide, the river water will recede, and they can live another year. Previously, the Zhang family sent people to form an alliance with the Wu family of Zhuxie Island, taking advantage of the tidal window period. That plan was indeed successful. During the time when Zhang Yunwei married into the Wu family, the Zhang family had not seen a black tide for nearly 20 years.
"It's all the fault of those useless people in the Wu family. We gave them so many resources, but they only lasted for twenty years."
Another young man cursed angrily.
"After I get through this, I will destroy the Wu family and take back all the dowry items."
"It's not necessarily safer outside than here now. A catastrophe has come again."
"Why are you talking so much? You might as well think about how to resolve the crisis at hand. Those three old guys are hiding in the ancestral temple. There are the evil thoughts left by our ancestors, which will have a better effect than the corpse of our ancestors."
After a few people talked for a while, the topic finally returned to self-rescue.
The five of them are the best of the Zhang family of the imperial clan. Each of them is a true immortal who has crossed the threshold of immortality. Although they are supported by the emperor's soldiers, it is undeniable that these five people are excellent. After all, the Zhang family of the imperial clan is not a small family.
Owning a cave world, the imperial Zhang family’s population is comparable to that of a small world.
These five people were able to stand out from the same world, so they were naturally not mediocre. In the eyes of them, the three-level true immortals who could rule a region in the outside world were nothing more than commonplace.
"The man who broke in had the mark of the 'River of Rebirth' on his body."
The young female cultivator on the left suddenly spoke.
"If that's the case, we can use it to our advantage. Those who are marked by the 'River of Rebirth' all have special physiques. Once the river water senses the aura of such a person, it will immediately transfer to that person."
"Then show him the way and let him go to the ancestral temple."
Several young men were cheered up, and one of them quickly took out a bamboo flute and started playing it slowly.
boom!
After a violent explosion, the world barrier completely shattered. Cold and humid air seeped out from inside, and the remaining flames in the surroundings were all extinguished the moment they came into contact with the moisture.
"Let's go."
Chen Luo followed the passage and stepped in.
'No one is alive.'
'The Wangsheng River is in the north.'
'Three hundred meters ahead, there is a group of zombies buried underground.'
The thoughts in the external brain kept feeding back, and before he even went in, Chen Luo had already explored the situation inside clearly.
Every profession has its specialization.
Different brains respond to different scenarios, and Chen Luo has never fallen behind in this regard.
Four people entered one after another.
The sky was gray, there was no sun, and the gray fog covered everything. Below was the inky black earth. There were some rotten wood and dead trees on the ground. There was a village not far ahead, but all the houses had collapsed, leaving only the foundations.
Crash!!
Sensing the presence of a living person, the soil on the ground instantly cracked. Corpses after corpses crawled out from underneath. The turbid corpse eyes all looked up at the four people who suddenly appeared in the sky.
An oval-shaped gap appeared above the gray sky, and black fire continued to fall from the edge.
roar!!
The zombies rioted and swarmed towards the four people.
These people were all members of the Zhang family of the imperial clan who were drowned in the "River of Rebirth". After the river receded, their remains were left here, like stranded fish.
The appearance of Chen Luo and others triggered their opportunity and brought them back to life.
"Trash."
The bloody bird looked disgusted.
Then he opened his mouth and spit downwards.
The orange sea of fire instantly engulfed the entire area, and the zombies that flew over were burned to black ash before they could get close. Large pieces of ashes fell to the ground, and the smell of burning filled the entire area.
However, these zombies had no idea what fear was. Instead of scaring them away, the fire made them even crazier.
"Explosive Flame!"
The blood-colored bird's body lit up, and it turned into a fiery red bird that flew down from the sky. Where its wings flapped, a wave of flaming heat formed, spreading in all directions.
sniff
A burning smell continued to be emitted.
All the zombies standing on the ground were sucked into the sea of fire. In the blink of an eye, the surroundings were burned to a barren land, and the abandoned buildings and dead grass on the ground were burned to black ashes.
After ten breaths, the flames dissipated.
Waves of heat swept up from the ground, the dark ground was full of cracks, and no zombies could be seen anymore.
"The Imperial Clan uses these ants to guard the gate?"
The bloody bird flapped its wings and landed back on the turtle's shell, its eyes full of disdain. This guy followed the Eight Source Ancient God ten thousand years ago, and was used to a high-handed perspective, so he thought everyone was trash.
"If you hadn't met with a disaster, with just those two fires you set, the Zhang family would have ground you to ashes and made you into medicine." Zhou Ying retorted to the stupid bird.
"Weakling."
The bloody bird narrowed its eyes and replied with two short words.
Zhou Ying's palms subconsciously clenched. If she could beat him, she would definitely teach this stupid bird a lesson and teach him how to talk to people.
"Let's go."
After determining the direction, Chen Luo turned into a stream of light and flew towards the area where the "River of Rebirth" was located. Seeing this, the three of them quickly followed.
Half a day later.
Phew!
A corpse puppet was suspended in the air, and a bright white sword blade pierced through his head, bringing out a string of black blood.
The sword returned to its sheath and the body fell to the ground.
"These zombies are just endless."
Zhou Ying turned around and said to Chen Luo who was standing quietly beside her.
They originally thought that the trip to the Zhang family of the imperial clan was a simple family visit, but after they actually came in, they found that the cave controlled by the Zhang family of the imperial clan was so large that it was beyond imagination. They flew for such a long time and did not see the location of the Zhang family. This place can no longer be described as a "cave", it is a world.
The Zhang family is the master of this world.
They rely on the power of the imperial weapon 'River of Rebirth' to control all the rules of this world.
Fate, cause and effect, luck, and reincarnation.
They wrote everything.
If the 'River of Rebirth' had not gotten out of control, the Zhang family could have completely retreated into the cave world, high above all others, and enjoyed eternal life regardless of the vicissitudes of the outside world.
"There's something wrong with that bamboo leaf."
The flower-backed turtle looked at the bamboo leaves behind the tide of corpses, and the turtle patterns on its back kept flashing.
Ever since they encountered this bamboo leaf, they have been encountering waves of corpses. It seems like there is an invisible hand behind them, tempting them, trying to lead them to another direction.
"Don't worry, we're almost there."
Looking at the mark on his hand, Chen Luo said calmly.
The reason for leaving this mark was to facilitate subsequent positioning. (End of this chapter)
