Chapter 305 Soul Searching and Spirit Refining: The Lesser Yin Corpse-Containing Bureau
Entrance to the unnamed underground palace.
"Um--"
Wang Yu, who was invisible, suddenly turned his head to look in one direction, the crescent moon mark in his eyes was particularly obvious, and then he lowered his head and thought for a while.
"Is there some internal strife...?"
Left with no other choice, he could only go after them to see what was going on. The effect of the Taiyin You Tong in this environment was even better than he had imagined.
Zhuo Wenshi's soul fire was as conspicuous as the full moon in the night.
In no time, the zombie returned to its coffin.
The azure aurora vanished from this place in an instant.
On the other end.
Having just emerged from the soil, Zhuo Wenshi, feeling somewhat chilled, hissed a few times. While frowning and observing her surroundings, she took out the broken jade pendants one by one.
"They're all dead. How could Zhuo Shouqing have such capable men under his command?"
While pondering, she suddenly remembered the guy that Ni Ling San Shao had invested in, who had caused quite a stir a few years ago after returning to the Holy Sect.
But just thinking about it made her realize it was impossible.
That guy named Wang Yu, he's only been at the Core Formation stage for a few years? The fastest he'll reach is the second level of Core Formation, and he probably hasn't even refined his natal magic weapon and supernatural abilities yet.
How could they possibly be a match for the Zhuo family cultivators?
"Could it be someone from the Yu or Zuoqiu families? Is that why he wants to wipe us all out here!"
Don't they want to expose the truth about relying on foreign forces?
Zhuo Wenshi smiled coldly.
After much thought, this seemed to be the most logical and purposeful possibility. Just as she took out a piece of white paper, preparing to send a message using the Spiritual Connection Technique, she realized that...
His body suddenly leaned back, and a long, fiery red ribbon flew out from his body, spinning and wrapping around him.
Just then, an aurora suddenly flew in from the sky.
Suddenly, an ice dragon composed of blue ice flames erupted, and the moment it collided with the red silk magic weapon, an explosion that swept for thousands of meters occurred.
The earth froze, and the gloomy mist dissipated.
The one who launched the sneak attack was Wang Yu, who had recently learned three high-grade third-tier spells.
Ice Chain Binding Spell, Illusionary Mist Ice Mirror, Ice Dragon Technique!
The technique used just now was the beginner level Ice Dragon Technique. When combined with the Ice Dragon Flame, its power was no less than that of an ordinary divine power.
However, Zhuo Wenshi easily defused the situation.
The natal magic weapon made from "Ling" is quite rare. Even among female cultivators, not many people choose this method, making it a rather unorthodox approach.
But this all-purpose approach can indeed be adapted to any situation.
After the ice explosion.
Zhuo Wenshi was surrounded by red silk, with fierce crimson flames burning around her. She flipped her hands, and a pair of palm-sized daggers fell into her hands. She then licked her lips seductively at Wang Yu.
"The guy who's been hiding has finally shown himself."
"Hidden? Yes, I do like to hide."
With the Earth Demon Mask concealing him and only one enemy remaining, he was not afraid at all, even though the enemy was at the seventh level of Core Formation. The difference in strength was not as great as he had imagined.
Neither side has any information about the other, so probing and revealing their trump cards become crucial.
The next moment.
The figure within the crimson silk vanished in a flash, then instantly reappeared behind him, its twin daggers coiling towards him like snakes.
"Shadow Cloak Technique?"
Wang Yu's eyes flickered as he noticed the overlap between the fiery shadows and his own. This technique was extremely rare and had only been seen on the guards of Wanglong City.
The countermeasure is relatively simple: close combat. Few people in this era can match him. While dodging forward, he uses his left foot to spin and kick back.
First move: Dragon Tail Sweep!
The explosive sound caused Zhuo Wenshi's expression to change drastically. She changed her twin-bladed magic weapon from a grappling technique to a defensive one. A hissing sound rang out as her magic power activated the magic weapon's power, forming a coiled snake formation as majestic as a mountain.
Yet, it was as fragile as tofu under the power of that mountain-throwing god.
In an instant, the mountain-like snake coil vanished, and the crimson ribbon grabbed Zhuo Wenshi's slender waist, once again erasing her from the shadows.
"The same trick won't work on me twice."
"Raging—"
The Ice Dragon Flame suddenly erupted into a sea of fire, containing extreme heat within extreme cold, completely covering the shadows on the ground.
Zhuo Wenshi escaped in a disheveled state, using a blazing sword to keep the Ice Dragon Flame at bay, her expression growing increasingly solemn.
She discovered that Wang Yu's methods were not only numerous but also ridiculously powerful, and that he could break her spells and launch a strong counterattack in a very short time.
Zhuo Family Secret Technique: Shadow Serpent Devour!
With a thought, he flung his twin daggers into the air, where they transformed into two thousand-meter-long black snakes in the blink of an eye, charging towards Wang Yu once more.
Illuminated by the sea of ice and fire, Wang Yu unleashed both punches.
Two Yin-Yang Demonic Dragons, formed from the essence of blood and qi, arrived first despite being only a few hundred meters in size. They withstood the full power of the magic weapon without any leakage.
Immediately afterwards, lightning flashed.
He unleashed the secret technique [Wind and Thunder Spirit Pattern] in an instant. The terrifying thunder energy not only enhanced his speed, but also imbued his offensive techniques with the masculine power of thunder.
The Great Handprint of the Underworld!
Lightning flashed, and a gigantic, murky yellow hand emerged from the vortex of dark clouds, startling Zhuo Wenshi.
"You're from the Yellow Springs Temple? How is that possible?!"
Shocked, Zhuo Wenshi overturned all her previous guesses and, while retreating, also raised her head and unleashed a palm strike.
Superior Divine Power: Ghost Palm!
The two palm prints collided with a deafening roar, and amidst the flashing lightning, Wang Yu's deliberately concealed lightning corpse leaped out, its entire body enveloped in even more violent lightning.
Corpse Path Divine Power: Summoning Thunder and Lightning.
"Boom—"
Even with the Crimson Flame Silk protecting it, it was ultimately not a magic weapon specifically designed for defense. As the flames dissipated, a section of the silk turned charred black.
Zhuo Wenshi coughed up blood and gripped the blazing sword in her right hand.
He slashed fiercely at the pursuing Thunder Corpse.
The scorching sword energy sliced through the heavens and earth, leaving behind cracks in the ground filled with rolling lava. Lei Shi's arm was almost severed by this sword, but fortunately, his zombie body was tough enough.
It managed to cleave one back.
Another Wang Yu, amidst aurora and lightning, immediately caught up, unleashing the Yellow Springs Great Handprint!
Using this tactic, Zhuo Wenshi dared not use her magic weapon to resist.
She had no choice but to grit her teeth and unleash her supernatural powers to clash back. But just as she was mentally activating them, the sixth Taiyin Sha Corpse appeared from the yin mist, and the invisible connection allowed her to see its true form.
"Another mutant zombie..."
Then, along with this thought...
—A malevolent curse cast by a corpse!
The curse locked her in place, and the Moon's Fiend descended upon her. The Crimson Flame Silk was nearly pulverized into a tattered cloth by the terrifying Moon's Fiend. With her supernatural power being interrupted like this, Zhuo Wenshi spat out another mouthful of blood.
The Yellow Springs Great Handprint is already within reach.
Left with no other choice, she could only use the magical power of the Blazing Flame Sword to defend herself.
Then.
It was an extremely uncomfortable feeling.
As the turbid currents of the Yellow Springs swept over it, the Blazing Flame Sword plummeted to the level of a mid-grade magic weapon, its power greatly reduced!
"The Seven Techniques of Heaven's Interception, undo..."
With perfect timing, favorable location, and harmonious relationships, Wang Yu, with his keen sense of combat, could hardly fail to notice that the best opportunity to win had arrived.
"The Moon Palace...the Twelve Phases!"
The frosty moon crosses the sky.
Zhuo Wenshi's eyes widened, but she found that her body was completely unresponsive, and a thin layer of ice was spreading over her body.
Wherever it passed, not only flesh and blood were frozen... even magical power was frozen. One of the Seven Heaven-Severing Techniques of the Ghost Fang Zhuo Clan, before it could even reveal its power, was completely silenced.
Her life was as precarious as a candle flickering in the wind.
The two corpses returned to their places, and the strange phenomena subsided.
With the Crystal Ice Heart Tower atop his head, Wang Yu landed in front of Zhuo Wenshi. He had used almost all his strength in this battle, consuming nearly 40% of his magical power.
The fight was exhilarating and thoroughly demonstrated his combat prowess, which was quite impressive.
Upon reaching the ice block, a black paper boat appeared between Wang Yu's brows.
With the Soul-Snatching Evil Boat Curse, begin the soul search!
The memories in the other person's mind appeared in his eyes like silhouette paintings. The audio and visuals were slightly out of sync, which was due to the other person's excessively strong spiritual energy.
The more he looked, the more his soul was shattered by the impact of the black paper boat, and he skipped over the memories involving the Zhuo family's heritage and hidden secrets as usual.
But he still discovered some problems.
"The Spiritual Rhinoceros Secret Technique?"
After searching for a while, Wang Yu found a piece of white paper in the lining of Zhuo Wenshi's chest. There was an uneven tear on the right side, as if it had been torn off casually.
The white paper read: "Beware of the Yellow Springs Temple, there is a chill..."
Wang Yu: "..."
Although this is one of his usual tricks, I still can't help but feel a little overwhelmed every time I actually see it in person.
The so-called Lingxi Secret Method must be used on Lingxi Paper.
What she writes on this side, no matter how far apart or how much space separates them, will appear on the other side of the paper.
If this kind of paper weren't so precious and the content it could transmit wasn't so limited, it would probably have long since replaced the function of the sound transmission jade talisman.
After finding no information that would expose his identity, Wang Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Everyone is dead.
Zhuo Shouyun won't send a second group of people over anytime soon, since the best he has are only those at the peak of the Core Formation stage.
Zhuo Wenshi's team can definitely be considered an "elite" team.
They can't compare to Wang Yu, but compared to Zhuo Shouqing's manpower, they are indeed a true elite.
While pondering.
Wang Yu enlarged the Glazed Ice Heart Tower and locked Zhuo Wenshi at the bottom, preparing to test the effect of "transformation" and also delay the time it would take for Zhuo Shouyun to learn the news.
The fate of the Zhuo family team is in her hands. As long as she doesn't die, even if she obtains those seemingly plausible but ultimately false information, it will be of no use.
Anything can happen as long as a person is alive.
This will require time to determine.
Wang Yu planned to cultivate in the secret realm for a while and explore the real tomb palace. The main hall he encountered before should be an isolated case.
If you encounter a similarly grand hall again, just don't go in.
The equipment used for solidifying corpses here is quite good, and they are all high-end products that have reached the third tier. There are also some good spiritual items among the burial goods.
He really couldn't bear to leave like this.
Using a feng shui compass to locate different burial chambers, he planned to find a point where the yin and yang energies of the two zombies converged, and then upgrade the two alien zombies first.
In this way, the number of zombies he can control at the same time will be reduced to one, but his combat power will increase instead of decrease. The power of the mutant zombie can be compared with that of an inner sect core cultivator.
It should be mentioned, and besides, his spiritual sense and physical refinement will also make rapid breakthroughs in the near future.
At that time, we might not need to change the combat methods.
Half a day later, after emptying Zhuo Wenshi's Qiankun Ring and stringing it into the ring cord, he had a clue where he was looking.
"This should be just enough for a naturally formed ordinary [Lesser Yin Corpse Formation]!"
