It was still quite difficult for the two of them to fight against more than a dozen zombies that had gained some speed.
Just as Su Li smashed a zombie's head with an axe, a zombie suddenly grabbed her shoulder from behind!
Zombies are incredibly strong when they grab onto living things!
Su Li was pulled back a step by this, and immediately felt a sharp pain in her left shoulder as if she had been forcefully stabbed by sharp nails!
But the next instant, before the zombie, whose mouth was half open, could even lower its head, it was suddenly struck hard! Su Li's eyes flashed, and she saw a dark shadow fall from the zombie's abdomen to the ground. Immediately afterward, an axe swung from behind the zombie, and the zombie's head was severed from its body!
“Meow!!”
"Sister Su Li, are you alright?"
As the zombie fell, Qi Zhi, who was standing behind it with a look of panic, and the black cat standing on the zombie's corpse immediately appeared!
Su Li's gaze swept over the two figures, one large and one small, and she shook her head: "It's alright, let's deal with these first!"
After saying that, he picked up the axe and swung it down at the zombies chasing after him!
A few seconds later, just as Su Li pulled her axe out of the zombie's head, her movements suddenly stopped!
There's something in this zombie's head!
Only a red horn was visible, but Su Li didn't have time to look closely. She only glanced at it briefly before turning her attention back to the remaining zombies!
Finally, after nearly twenty minutes, the last zombie fell to the ground!
The two humans were so exhausted that they were leaning on the ground with their axes, panting heavily!
The kitten quietly jumped onto the roof of the car closest to Su Li, relaxed and swished its tail, waiting for the two to recover their strength.
Still too weak~
Such a small amount of exercise and it's already panting like this? In the cat world, let alone cultivating, it would probably be difficult to even live to adulthood!
Xuan Qing's icy blue eyes were fixed on Su Li's brow, which was already soaked with sweat. The girl was wearing a mask, but it made her eyes appear even brighter and more determined.
Tsk, but her temperament is still quite good, very much like the brave spirit of their cat clan!
Thinking of this, the cat couldn't help but flick its tail faster!
Su Li took a couple of breaths and then walked toward the corpse of the zombie she had just seen.
She put away the axe, took out a wooden stick from her spatial storage, and, under the puzzled and confused gazes of the cat and Qi Zhi, poked the stick into the zombie's already smashed skull and stirred it a couple of times.
“Snap!”
A hard, red object covered in black brain matter and emitting a strong stench was pulled out of the zombie's head.
Su Li immediately took out a small square towel she had gotten from the beauty salon, folded it several times, picked up the things on the ground through the towel, and wiped them clean.
After wiping it clean, the hard object was finally revealed in its entirety.
This is an irregular, stone-like red object.
It looks very much like a ruby.
It was translucent and shiny, but not hard. Su Li only needed to apply a little force, and her fingernail scraped off a small piece of it!
Qi Zhi, who had curiously come over to take a look, immediately widened his eyes upon seeing this thing, his face filled with astonishment!
He looked at Su Li, his tone tinged with surprise, and said, "Sister Su Li, could this be the legendary crystal core?"
Su Li twirled the red stone in her palm and looked at him: "It's possible. Try to see if you can absorb it."
As she spoke, she handed the red stone in her hand to Qi Zhi.
Qi Zhi was taken aback and was about to wave his hand to refuse!
However, before he could speak, Su Li had already discerned his thoughts and said:
"Right now, you're the only one with superpowers. If this is a crystal core, its level definitely won't be high. Don't worry about anything else. First, figure out what this is and what kind of energy you can absorb. Otherwise, how will you know whether to put it away if you encounter it again later?"
Upon hearing her words, Qi Zhi stopped hesitating and reached out to take the red stone from Su Li's palm into his own.
Neither of them had any experience with absorbing crystal nuclei.
The only cat that has absorbed the essence of heaven and earth still can't speak human language!
Xuanqing is going crazy with worry!
He heard Su Li and Qi Zhi's conversation about the red stone very clearly!
He naturally understood what this thing was; it was probably the same as the spiritual objects he had absorbed spiritual energy from before, and it might contain precious spiritual energy or power.
But he can't speak yet!!
He wanted to discuss the function and usage of this thing with them, but he couldn't!
I heard it! I saw it! I guessed it! But I can't participate in the discussion about it!
God knows how devastating this was for a cat with boundless curiosity but no ability to speak! God, that lightning strike would have been better if it had just sent me back to the mortal cat stage, so I wouldn't understand anything!
The cat is filled with grief and indignation!
The cat is scratching the car tire!
In her haste, the cat lost control and rushed over to give Su Li's trouser leg a hard slap!
Su Li, who was watching Qi Zhi try to absorb energy by holding the red stone, felt her trouser leg being touched. She looked down in confusion and saw the cat standing up and rapidly patting her thigh with its two front paws!
"?what?"
"Meow meow meow meow~~~"
Xuan Qing looked at Su Li, who was looking down, and subconsciously looked up and let out a series of sobs.
Su Li was taken aback and quickly turned to look around, but she didn't see anything unusual.
But the kitten at her feet was still staring at her with its big eyes open!
As a cat lover, Su Li was all too familiar with that look; it meant the kitten was expecting something!
