"I'm going out to take a look!"

As Lin Xue spoke, she took two steps back and then leaped onto the top of the wall.

Seeing this, the old village chief, who had been guarding the entrance, could only shake his head and sigh helplessly.

However, when his gaze fell upon Erbing, who was still standing in the courtyard, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, there was a young Taoist priest here, so if the zombies came again, someone could help them hold them off.

Lin Xue jumped down from the wall and ran after the departing zombie.

The zombie, who had been hopping forward, seemed to sense someone behind him. When he turned around, he saw Lin Xue rushing towards him.

"roar!"

Someone actually dared to chase after him without fear of death?

The zombie looked at her for a while, puzzled, before belatedly realizing what was happening and leaping towards Lin Xue.

"Smack!"

A flashing talisman was thrown out, and the zombie felt a sudden crimson light in front of him. Although the zombie was blind, he could sense a blazing light.

He managed to stop his forward momentum in time, but fell to the ground due to inertia.

When he got up again, he felt a numbness throughout his body.

A talisman for immobilizing a zombie had appeared on its forehead, rendering it unable to move.

Lin Xue took out a specially made rope from her spatial storage and tied the zombie to a large tree on the spot.

Then they ran towards the area in the village where the corpse energy was most intense.

There's more than just this one zombie in this place.

The reason Li Chuandao and his group hadn't returned for so long was because they were being entangled by an even more powerful old zombie.

"Junior brother, find a way to trap him!"

Li Chuandao jumped out of the battle and picked up a blank talisman paper next to him to start drawing.

"Senior brother, hurry up, I can't keep up!"

This is a zombie king; he can only delay it for a short while by himself.

If it goes on for any longer, it probably won't be a match for this old zombie.

"I am coming!"

Li Chuandao quickly finished drawing the talisman and then threw it at the old zombie.

"Crack!"

The moment the talisman touched the old zombie, a thunderclap rang out from the sky, and then a bolt of lightning as thick as a finger struck down from the heavens, hitting the old zombie.

"roar!!!"

The old zombie was struck and immediately froze on the spot, wisps of white smoke rising from its mouth.

It seems this injury was quite serious.

However, this lightning-summoning talisman only held the old zombie for a short while.

A few breaths later, the old zombie regained its vigor and charged towards Wan Daozhang.

Lin Xue saw that the situation was difficult to handle.

He started taking things out of his bag.

Various talismans.

Ink line.

Copper coin sword.

There's also black dog blood.

After placing the items on the ground.

Lin Xue then rushed forward with the whip, lashing out to entangle the old zombie and pulling it backward, wedging it right between two small trees.

The next second, Lin Xue quickly circled the old zombie several times.

Then he looked up and shouted at Li Chuandao.

"Master, the items are ready for you. Hurry up and set up the formation!"

After all, he was just a junior disciple. Even if he had great talent, he couldn't easily use things that were far beyond his level.

She prepared the materials and then handed the rest over to her master and two senior apprentices.

"Junior brother, I'll set up the formation. You go and help Xiaoxue control that old corpse and try to buy me as much time as possible!"

After Li Chuandao finished speaking, he rushed toward the things that Lin Xue had prepared.

As the talisman brush turned, talismans were quickly drawn one after another.

Next, we need to find a place to set up the formation.

Since the old zombie is trapped, let's set up an array around it.

Li Chuandao was very fast, but Master Wan was not having an easy time either.

Lin Xue's cultivation was still shallow, and she could barely hold onto the whip.

Master Wan had no choice but to transfer his magical power to Lin Xue so that she could hold on for a little longer.

"Senior brother, hurry up!"

Although Master Wan knew he shouldn't urge his senior brother at this time, he was also really on the verge of collapse.

Transferring magic power to others consumes far more energy than using it yourself.

"Uncle-Master, I have quite a few talismans in my satchel. Find some corpse-fixing talismans and stick a few on this old corpse!"

If you lack strength, use talismans to make up for it.

Upon hearing Lin Xue's words, Master Wan quickly reached into Lin Xue's handbag.

He took out a large handful of talismans.

Then he went to the old corpse, picked up the corpse-fixing talismans, and stuck them all on the old zombie's body.

Then they saw that all sorts of talismans, such as exorcism talismans and warding-off evil talismans, which could restrain the old zombie, were used on him.

Even so, the talismans that were pasted on were being consumed rapidly.

"Junior brother!"

After the formation was set up, Li Chuandao picked up the ink line and handed one end to Wan Daozhang.

Lin Xue watched his master and uncle-master busy themselves, and he was also barely managing to keep going.

She would let go once all the talismans on the old zombie's body were exhausted.

"Xiaoxue, back off!"

At Li Chuandao's command, Lin Xue immediately released the whip in her hand and quickly retreated outside the formation.

Without Lin Xue's restraint, the last talisman on the zombie king's body also disappeared.

"roar!"

The old zombie felt a lightness in its body and tried to rush towards Li Chuandao and the others.

But as soon as he took a step, he felt as if he had stepped on a hot iron, and immediately retreated.

Jump in a different direction.

Just like before, as soon as I jumped out, it felt like my feet were on hot coals.

After trying many times, the old zombie resigned itself to its fate and clung tightly to the two small trees behind it.
