Ye Xingchen parked the car on the side of the road, got out, and looked around. He saw that the small bamboo forest he was in was eerily gloomy.
A chilling aura swept over us; clearly, it was a formation set up by a master.
The opponent was also formidable; even Ye Xingchen was caught off guard and plunged headlong into the formation.
"Who are you? If you're a man, come out and show yourself. There's no point in hiding like this." Ye Xingchen looked around and uttered a few words calmly.
His voice wasn't loud, but it carried like a booming bell, causing the surrounding bamboo grove and leaves to rustle and fall in droves.
Suddenly, a cloud of mist appeared, instantly enveloping the bamboo forest completely.
Immediately afterwards, a tall figure emerged from the mist, staggering as it attacked Ye Xingchen.
The newcomer was nearly two meters tall, with fists as big as sofas, and his entire body was covered in a layer of iron armor, like a warrior from an ancient battlefield.
"Iron Corpse?" Ye Xingchen's pupils contracted slightly. It was the Yinshan brothers again.
The three heroes of Yinshan each have their own specialties. Among them, the second brother of Yinshan is good at refining corpses, and the corpses are divided into gold, silver, copper and iron.
Although this time it was just an ordinary iron corpse, this thing was impervious to blades and spears and possessed immense strength, making it extremely difficult to deal with.
As for the Golden Corpse, it's just a legendary existence, and Yin Lao Er probably couldn't even refine it. However, the fact that this guy has appeared sends a signal that the Yin brothers are about to take action.
The towering iron corpse took a step, leaving a crater in the concrete beneath its feet. With its bronze skin and iron bones, plus the heavy armor covering its body, it probably weighed over a thousand pounds.
Ye Xingchen waved his right hand, and a hurricane rose up, neatly slicing dozens of bamboo stalks in half with his true energy.
With a wave of his hand, the bamboo suddenly flew towards the iron corpse.
With his true energy enhanced, the bamboo was no different from a sharp blade.
Whoosh, puff puff puff, dozens of bamboo poles struck the Iron Corpse's armor, causing it to halt in its tracks.
But he still stepped forward, and snap... the bamboo instantly bent and cracked.
The iron corpse slowly raised its head, its emotionless eyes giving Ye Xingchen a cold look before continuing to step forward.
Crack... The bamboo suddenly shattered into countless bamboo strands as Ye Xingchen's true energy was enhanced and the iron corpse blocked its path.
The iron corpse suddenly stepped forward, approaching Ye Xingchen, and then swung its arm, striking Ye Xingchen heavily.
Ye Xingchen struck out with his palm in the air, and with a loud bang, the iron corpse was sent flying seven or eight meters away.
But when he struck out with this palm, Ye Xingchen felt a slight tremor in his palm, his body swayed, and he took a step back.
However, the Iron Corpse was unharmed after falling to the ground. It slowly stood up and continued to walk towards Ye Xingchen with faltering steps.
Ye Xingchen made a grabbing motion in the air with his right hand, and Chi Xiao appeared in his hand.
With a burst of true energy, the sword pellet emitted a three-foot-long sword beam.
Just then, a figure flashed on a large tree, and a gaunt old man appeared.
Holding a bronze flute, he laughed heartily: "Ye Xingchen, you didn't expect this, did you? We'll meet like this?"
"You're the second son of the Ye family, aren't you?" Ye Xingchen raised her eyes and glanced at him indifferently. "I didn't expect us to meet like this. You must have tried every means to ambush my family, but you found that they were wearing protective amulets and couldn't find any flaws, right?"
“Yes, you were prepared. Third Brother was careless back then. He should have waited for us brothers to come out of seclusion together and then killed you in one blow.” Yin Lao Er said bitterly, “Ye Xingchen, I’m here today to avenge my brother.”
"What about your leader? Why isn't he coming out?" Ye Xingchen smiled slightly and said, "If he also comes out, then things will be easier. I'll send you brothers to the underworld to reunite."
"You're still being stubborn even when you're about to die. My iron corpse is enough to make you flustered. If I were to unleash my bronze corpse, you would have been dead long ago." Yin Lao Er sneered.
"I think you've made a mistake," Ye Xingchen said leisurely. "The reason I was in such a panic was to make you lower your guard and show yourself. I didn't expect you to actually come out?"
"Now that you're out, leave your lives behind." Ye Xingchen slowly pointed his right hand, the Crimson Sky Sword, forward, and a beam of sword light shot out.
With a soft thud, Yin Lao Er, perched on the treetop, was struck squarely by the sword. His figure transformed into a piece of paper, drifting gently down.
This piece of paper was actually a paper figure the size of a palm, with blood-red symbols drawn on it.
"So it was an avatar?" Ye Xingchen stared into the shadows. "The second son of the Yin family is quite cautious."
Immediately afterwards, three more figures appeared. These three figures were exactly the same; they were all the second sons of the Yin family.
They both sneered at the same time: "You really think I'd let my guard down after the third brother died so mysteriously?"
"Ye Xingchen, today I'm going to leave you here to avenge Lao San."
Three mouths opened simultaneously, their voices coming from all directions. Ye Xingchen unleashed a sword strike, and a glimmer of spiritual light appeared above the Crimson Sky, followed by three soft "poof" sounds.
Yin Lao Er's three figures all turned into a piece of paper and floated to the ground.
As he disappeared, the iron corpse moved.
With a roar, the Iron Corpse slowly drew a heavy sword from behind his back.
As he drew his heavy sword, he became extremely agile. He leaped up, raised the heavy sword high above his head, and brought it down on Ye Xingchen's head.
Ye Xingchen raised the Crimson Sky sword high in his hand, and with a clang, a sword light appeared out of thin air.
Boom... A sword aura rippled outwards in all directions, cutting the surrounding bamboo forest in half.
With a crack, the concrete ground beneath Ye Xingchen's feet sank, and the iron corpse flew backward.
This thing has no emotions; once it receives an order, it will relentlessly attack its target.
He felt no pain after landing, and suddenly flipped himself up and continued to attack Ye Xingchen.
The Crimson Cloud in Ye Xingchen's hand disappeared, and he embraced with both hands, causing the void to tremble.
A black and white yin-yang symbol emerged and blocked the way for the iron corpse.
The Taiji Xuanqing Jue (太极玄清诀) – with one method, all evil is annihilated.
With a whoosh, the iron corpse was sent flying again, but this time, its armor shattered and disintegrated.
With a thud, the iron corpse fell heavily into the bamboo forest that had just been sharpened, and was pierced through by dozens of sharp bamboo stalks.
However, this creature's physical body was already dead. Even though its body was pierced, it still struggled to stand up and attack Ye Xingchen.
Ye Xingchen slowly walked up to the Iron Corpse, grabbed Chixiao with his right hand, and then slashed at the Iron Corpse with his sword.
With a thud, the corpse was separated from its body. The corpse talisman tattooed on the guy's body was destroyed, and he stopped struggling.
Yin Lao Er, who was more than ten kilometers away, suddenly opened his eyes. He had lost contact with the Iron Corpse.
