Eighty li west of Anqing Prefecture lies a gloomy, dense forest, shrouded in thick fog all day long. This is the infamous corpse-raising ground surrounding Anqing Prefecture.
The entire cadaver-raising ground was surrounded by a wooden fence with various warning signs, but it was now in a state of disrepair.
Some were destroyed by zombies that escaped from the zombie-raising grounds, while others were taken away by the fearless villagers around the area.
At first, the Liang Kingdom used iron fences, but later they were replaced with wooden ones. Now, they no longer bother to replace the fences.
Yang Cheng and the other two stood in front of the corpse-raising ground. Han Yu's expression was somewhat solemn: "In the beginning, this corpse-raising ground just had a lot of zombies and too many dead people, so it was deeply rooted and impossible to uproot."
The original intention of those immortal cultivation sects was to seal it off, preventing the zombies inside from leaving and outsiders from entering, so as to avoid accidental deaths adding to the yin energy. They believed that after a hundred years, the yin energy would dissipate naturally, like a tree without roots.
But they didn't expect that the Liang Kingdom had also been engaged in many wars over the years, and even the capital city of Anqing had suffered many deaths and calamities.
This place has a strong yin energy, so it directly absorbs all the yin energy within a radius of a hundred miles.
Over the past hundred years, the yin energy has not only not dissipated, but has been continuously nourishing the corpse-raising ground.
Therefore, this place not only gave birth to many zombies, but also nurtured a powerful zombie king, and the longer the time, the stronger the zombie king becomes.
The last person to emerge alive from within was ten years ago. Whether the Corpse King has grown or mutated in those ten years is uncertain.
Yang Cheng and Cui Laodao both nodded; of course, they wouldn't let their guard down.
Old Master Cui casually flicked his hand and cast a talisman array. The three of them were immediately enveloped in golden light, which warded off evil and brought peace.
Yang Cheng and Cui Laodao haven't teamed up for a long time; he's been carrying out missions alone lately.
Although Master Cui was still at the peak of the Seven Stars level, his mastery of talisman techniques was already quite formidable, and he could unleash a complete talisman array with a single move.

As the three stepped into the fog of the corpse-raising ground, visibility suddenly became extremely low.
Because the fog contained extremely strong yin energy, even their perception became very low, even less than if they could see with their eyes.
Old Master Cui covered his nose with a look of disgust: "This place really stinks."
The soil in the corpse-raising ground was incredibly damp and had a dark reddish hue. It felt soft and spongy underfoot, giving one an extremely disgusting feeling.
Furthermore, there was a faint, damp, stench of decay in the air, which made people feel nauseous.
"Don't expect too much from a place like this. Maybe the Corpse King is in the place with the strongest stench of corpses."
As soon as Yang Cheng finished speaking, he thrust out the Soul-Severing Spear with all his might.
A zombie with only half a body, carrying a long section of its spine, suddenly emerged from the soil, only to be pierced through by Yang Cheng.
This thing only had its upper body, with flesh and blood still remaining on its face, and even some viscous, shriveled internal organs. Even though it had been pierced by Yang Cheng, it had not died.
Yang Cheng unleashed a burst of bloodthirsty power, instantly shredding the zombie into pieces.
Old Master Cui was startled: "Where did this thing come from? I didn't even sense it at all."
Han Yu said with a solemn expression, "This corpse-raising ground is not simple. The yin energy is stagnant and cannot be dispersed. The zombies born here have already become one with this corpse-raising ground, so of course you cannot sense it."
Yang Cheng squinted and said, "Our troubles are probably coming."
As Yang Cheng finished speaking, Cui Laodao and Han Yu looked over and saw that the ground in front of them had suddenly begun to writhe strangely, and thick blood was even seeping out.
As a series of shrill screams rang out, countless zombies struggled to crawl out from under the ground and rushed towards them!
Three living people, two of whom were extremely healthy and vigorous.
In this zombie-raising ground, the three of them were like three bright light bulbs, instantly attracting the attention of the zombies.
Yang Cheng frowned slightly and said, "These zombies don't seem to be the same as zombies in the traditional sense."
The zombies in the world of Hong Kong Ghost Story are almost all white zombies, purple zombies, black zombies, and the like, each with its own power and its own fatal weakness.
While the zombies in this zombie-raising ground aren't particularly troublesome in terms of attack, they are very difficult to kill unless you simply shred them like Yang Cheng did.
Old Master Cui pulled out a large pile of talismans and said, "It's normal. Although these things are considered zombies, they are actually connected to this corpse-raising ground. They are evil spirits nurtured in this corpse-raising ground, so they cannot be viewed in the usual way."
As soon as he finished speaking, Old Master Cui waved his hands, and talismans rained down from the sky.
At the same time, he formed a hand seal, black energy rose from beneath his feet, and white light surged above him.
The divine power of the Yin-Yang Division erupted, manipulating the talisman array, and almost instantly set up a Yin-Yang Myriad Talisman Array.
As the Yin and Yang forces reversed and crushed, the talismans exploded one after another, and large numbers of zombies were crushed into a pile of minced meat.
Han Yu over there also picked up his jade flute and began to play. Instantly, a powerful burst of immortal energy erupted and poured into Old Master Cui's body.
Han Xiangzi's legacy, "The Prelude to Smallpox"!
Tianhua Yin, also known as Huangting Zan, is a Taoist spiritual melody, profound and ethereal, containing unfathomable mysteries.
It can be said that Han Xiangzi's inheritance is definitely a powerful auxiliary weapon.
