Maoshan talismans are effective against zombies, but they shouldn't be effective against ghouls.
But Yang Cheng sensed something unusual about the zombie in front of him.
Even using his access privileges, all Yang Cheng could see was a blur of questions.
Clearly, this thing did not seem to have been born naturally in the Tower World.
The red zombie was blasted into the mouth by the exorcism talisman formed from Yang Cheng's blood, and immediately let out a shrill scream.
But the red zombie didn't retreat an inch; instead, it suddenly crashed into Yang Cheng.
In an instant, Yang Cheng's entire body trembled, as if his flesh and bones were about to separate.
Yang Cheng's head buzzed, and the next moment his aura exploded. He almost exhausted all his strength to blast the red zombie away.
With a single slash, Yang Cheng sent several ordinary zombies rushing towards him flying, then stared in horror at the red zombie.
This thing's power was simply too evil. In that instant, Yang Cheng felt as if his flesh and bones were being forcibly torn apart by this power.
If it weren't for his strong physical body and the ghost bone within him, he might have died right there.
The red zombie charged again, its body radiating a scarlet, almost tangible, malevolent aura.
Heaven knows how much slaughter had been condensed to form that murderous aura. The protective energy condensed by the Heaven-Stealing Divine Technique was extremely fragile in front of it and was torn apart in an instant.
With the City Emperor's golden body possessing him, Yang Cheng's entire body shone with a golden light.
With a single slash, the Imperial Guard's sword tore a bloody gash in the red zombie's body, but it was instantly covered by the crimson aura of malevolence.
The same zombie slammed its claw into Yang Cheng's City King Golden Body, creating a deafening roar. Yang Cheng felt his City King Golden Body tremble, as if it were about to be peeled off, but it ultimately held on.
Yang Cheng was shocked. This thing's power could even shake the golden body of the City Emperor. What kind of existence was it? Yang Cheng had a vague guess in his mind.
The next moment, the City Emperor's Dharma Image condensed behind Yang Cheng, and the Prison Suppression Barrier descended with a roar!
Under the prison-suppressing barrier, the red zombie was finally suppressed, and the surrounding scarlet evil energy condensed on its body, making it appear as if it were a physical entity.
Yang Cheng slashed down with his sword, but he couldn't tear apart the baleful aura on the surface of the body. Even the Blood Devouring Blade Soul seemed to be afraid of something, shrinking into the body of the Imperial Guard Blade and refusing to emerge.
With a cold snort, Yang Cheng's body swiftly transformed into the form of Ying Gou, revealing a deep and sinister zombie-like form that contrasted sharply with the radiant and luminous golden body of the City Emperor.
It was as if the power of light and darkness had simultaneously converged on Yang Cheng. With a horizontal slash of his Imperial Guard sword, the red zombie was decapitated by Yang Cheng!
However, the red zombie was still not dead. The scarlet aura connected the red zombie's head and body, as if trying to merge them together again.
Yang Cheng grabbed the zombie's head and reached inside, forcefully pulling out the small red dot on its forehead.
The thing had blood vessels connecting it to the zombie's head, but it was torn apart by the combined power of the City Emperor's Golden Body and Ying Gou's Body.
The instant that thing separated from the red zombie's head, all the zombies fell to the ground, their bodies rapidly rotting and moldy.
Yang Cheng examined the object in his hand carefully and found it to be a bone fragment only the size of a thumb, with strange patterns drawn on it.
"Seven Killings Star Lord Inheritance Fragment: Fusing it will grant 8% inheritance, but because the inheritance is less than 10%, the Seven Killings Star Lord's abilities cannot be awakened."
This thing is pretty much what Yang Cheng guessed; it is indeed related to the inheritance of divine authority.
The most likely power capable of shaking the City Emperor's golden body is the power of divine inheritance. And this world is the number one ranked existence among the Xuan-level worlds, so it's perfectly normal for fragments of divine authority to be scattered here.
This time, Yang Cheng finally understood why everyone said that the succession of divine authority was so rare.
Items possessed by divine inheritance are fine, but the life forms possessed by them experience a dramatic increase in power.
It took Yang Cheng using the City Emperor's Golden Body and Ying Gou's Body to suppress it; the red zombie's power was almost infinitely close to the Seven Star Realm.
Moreover, this is because Yang Cheng already possessed a divine inheritance at the Eight Gates Realm, which enabled him to suppress it.
If it were someone else without a divine inheritance, how would they defeat this red zombie and obtain the divine inheritance?
Collecting all the divine inheritances from world to world is an incredibly difficult task.
Thinking of this, Yang Cheng's expression became even more serious.
It seems that those who hold divine positions are not simple characters, and that demon's strength should be greater than I imagined.
In reality, Yang Cheng was simply overthinking things.
He didn't come from a powerful family and didn't know how those reincarnators from powerful families improved their inheritance.
Reincarnators from powerful, established factions wouldn't foolishly rely solely on their own strength to accumulate inheritance points; instead, they would choose to trade.
Other high-ranking reincarnators will also acquire fragments of inheritance from various worlds. Those that are useless to them will naturally be put up for priority use by the reincarnators of their own faction.
Therefore, these fragments of inheritance are either used as rewards or as items for trade.
While it might be difficult to raise the inheritance level to over 50% in one go, raising it to over 10% is still quite easy.
"Integration of divine lineage."
Yang Cheng directly chose to fuse with the inheritance fragments of the Seven Killings Star Lord.
Yang Cheng had no intention of trading away his divine inheritance.
Furthermore, the Seven Killings Star Lord's abilities were simply too powerful; the scene where the red zombie almost tore his flesh apart was absolutely terrifying.
