The little zombie jumped out, and a chilling wind suddenly swept through the area. Dark clouds obscured the moon, and the construction site's headlights crackled twice before exploding.
Fortunately, Manager Zhou and his team went back, otherwise they would probably have been quite frightened by what they saw.
The little zombie, having failed to ambush Zhang Yuan, hopped and skipped, launching another attack on him.
His body and fangs were stained with red blood, which must have been left by the construction workers who had been drained of their blood in the past few days!
Zombies like to drink human blood, as it makes them stronger.
Based on what Manager Zhou told him, Zhang Yuan had roughly figured out the whole story.
It's likely that the construction team from Yilai Mall accidentally unearthed this coffin, and then foreman Cao Ming and Cao Li, driven by greed, pried open the coffin, broke the seal, and released the zombie, which led to a series of subsequent murders.
The little zombie was fast and had strong attack power, its strength equivalent to that of a human cultivator in the late stage of the Meridian Opening Realm. Zhang Yuan used the Blazing Palm to exchange a few blows with the little zombie and had a clear understanding of its strength.
This evil spirit must be eradicated as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences will be dire!
Zhang Yuan's cultivation had already reached the early stage of the Golden Core realm, so although the little zombie that burst out of the coffin was powerful, it could not harm him.
He channeled his inner energy, unleashing a series of fiery tiger palm strikes that forced the little zombie to retreat.
The Fiery Tiger Palm slammed into the zombie's chest again, sending the little zombie flying several meters backward. Zhang Yuan used the Azure Cloud Step, his figure flashed, and he appeared in front of the little zombie. Before the little zombie could react, he stuck a sealing talisman on the little zombie's forehead!
The little zombie bared its teeth as Zhang Yuan approached, but its body was unable to move because it was sealed by the talisman.
Zhang Yuan clapped his hands and stepped back from the zombies.
This zombie not only looks disgusting, but it also has a nauseating stench.
Seeing that Zhang Yuan had subdued the zombie, Jia Zheng finally felt relieved.
Zhang Yuan, that kid, has improved his strength again recently. His cultivation speed is really fast!
After the little zombie was immobilized by the sealing talisman, Master Jia also walked over and stood three meters away, watching the snarling little zombie. He clicked his tongue in amazement and said, "The murders at the construction site, it seems, were done by this evil spirit!"
"Zhang Yuan, get rid of him right away, just looking at him gives me the creeps."
The yin energy near the construction site was extremely dense. At this moment, wisps of yin energy entered the little zombie's body, and the little zombie showed signs of breaking the seal of the sealing talisman.
Zhang Yuan drew his Moon Sword, preparing to completely annihilate the little zombie and eliminate any future troubles.
Just as the moon sword was about to thrust out, the coffin behind him suddenly exploded with a bang!
Wood chips and dirt flew everywhere!
Amidst the flying sawdust and mud, a black figure rushed swiftly toward Zhang Yuan!
A powerful aura of Yin energy surged into the sky.
Master Jia was so frightened by the sudden turn of events that he rolled on the ground!
They hurriedly fled outside the police cordon.
Zhang Yuan reacted extremely quickly. As the black shadow rushed out, he activated the Azure Cloud Step, stepping with mysterious movements. The figure disappeared from the spot and reappeared on a slope three meters away from the original location.
As the sawdust and dirt dissipated, Zhang Yuan saw the true face of the shadowy figure: a much larger adult zombie standing where Zhang Yuan had just been standing.
It wore a purple robe with a large hat, its entire face was eerily black, its eyes were blood red, and two thick, black fangs several centimeters long were exposed outside its mouth.
This zombie was even more terrifying, its malevolent aura soaring to the heavens, its strength far surpassing that of the little zombie from before.
Judging from the zombie's attack, it is estimated that it has reached the combat power of the early Golden Core stage!
The adult zombie in the purple robe turned its head and glanced at the little zombie who was immobilized by the sealing talisman. As if it had sentience, it became extremely angry. It looked at Zhang Yuan and let out a strange howl, revealing a mouthful of jagged, beast-like black broken teeth!
The purple-clothed zombie moved very fast. With a leap, it appeared in front of Zhang Yuan in the next moment.
A black palm suddenly slammed out!
Zhang Yuan activated the acupoints on his arm again, and his right palm turned crimson, transforming into an iron palm as stiff as steel, to meet the zombie's palm technique.
The two palms collided, producing a piercing explosion, and dust and debris flew everywhere as the two fought.
Both Zhang Yuan and the zombie were forced back by each other's palm strikes. The zombie took two steps back, while Zhang Yuan took one step back. They both seemed to be stunned by the power of the other.
The Blazing Tiger Palm is a powerful palm technique of the demon race. Once mastered, even a human cultivator at the early Golden Core stage would be unable to withstand a single palm strike from Zhang Yuan using only their physical body.
But the zombie actually took the hit and wasn't hurt at all!
After the first palm strike, the human and the zombie started fighting again. In just two minutes, they exchanged more than ten blows, all with palm strikes!
In the end, Zhang Yuan's Fiery Tiger Palm was slightly better, knocking the zombie away!
But Zhang Yuan's expression was very solemn. The zombie's arms and body were extremely hard, no less than, or even stronger than, the bodies of demons!
Moreover, he seemed to possess inexhaustible power!
The zombie sprang up from the ground again; his legs were unable to bend, but this did not affect his strength in the slightest.
The dense yin energy surrounding the construction site flowed into his body, and the zombie bared its teeth and charged again. Zhang Yuan's powerful blood and qi were like the most delicious food, making the zombie's eyes reveal naked greed.
Zhang Yuan unleashed his full power with the Fiery Tiger Palm, sending the zombie flying once again.
Once, twice, three times!
The zombie was completely unharmed. Zhang Yuan also noticed something was wrong: every time the zombie was driven back, a large amount of black energy would surge up from around it and enter the zombie's body.
The purple-clad zombie, enraged by Zhang Yuan's repeated defeats, suddenly roared, and a black nine-ringed broadsword flew out from the bottom of the coffin like an arrow and landed in the zombie's hand.
The zombie's aura surged again, its entire body enveloped in black mist.
The zombie's nine-ringed broadsword was 10 centimeters wide and 1.5 meters long, and it looked quite extraordinary. In addition, the zombie's body was unusually sturdy, so Zhang Yuan did not dare to be careless and quickly drew his moon sword.
The sounds of clashing swords echoed incessantly through the night sky above the construction site.
After exchanging blows with the zombie for several rounds, Zhang Yuan stabbed the zombie with his sword, producing a hissing sound and sparks!
"What a powerful body! Could it be a Vajra Corpse?"
The so-called Vajra Corpse, as the name suggests, is a zombie whose body is as stiff as a Vajra. This type of zombie is buried in a special feng shui formation after death and is nourished by the feng shui formation for a long time, resulting in a body that is different from ordinary zombies.
"Could it be that this construction site is a feng shui formation?"
Zhang Yuan thought of the numerous snakes and insects he had seen at the construction site, as well as the locust trees, the pond, and the dense yin energy. He then thought of a special formation: the Yin Gathering Formation!
He suddenly understood!
The Yin Gathering Array and the Spirit Gathering Array are similar; one gathers the Yin energy between heaven and earth, while the other gathers the spiritual energy between heaven and earth.
Within the Yin Gathering Formation, zombies can continuously receive nourishment and replenishment from Yin energy, making them more powerful than in other places.
No wonder this zombie has an incredibly powerful body and immense strength; even if it is stabbed by the moon sword, it can quickly recover!
It must be because of the Yin-gathering formation.
As Zhang Yuan pondered, the diamond activated its Yin energy, and the nine-ringed broadsword slashed down once more.
The broadsword contained immense power, slicing through the air with a sound.
Zhang Yuan swung his sword to defend himself.
The Moon Sword blocked the Nine-Ring Broadsword. At this moment, Diamond suddenly unleashed a palm strike with his left hand, and Zhang Yuan also countered with a palm strike of his left hand.
boom.
Both bodies retreated simultaneously.
Zhang Yuan felt a slight pain in his left arm.
Looking down, I saw that my arm had been scratched by the sharp diamond nail, leaving a thin bloodstain.
"I was careless!"
Zhang Yuan has only cultivated the Flaming Tiger Palm technique on his right hand so far. The acupoints on his left hand have not yet been opened, so he has not yet developed the Crimson Sun Palm. Therefore, his left hand is not as stiff as his right hand. During the battle just now, he was careless and his left hand was scratched by the diamond.
The smell of blood drove Diamond even crazier. He unleashed his full power with his nine-ringed broadsword at Zhang Yuan, who defended with his moon sword.
After blocking two attacks, Zhang Yuan was actually forced back by the Vajra Corpse on the third.
At the same time, Zhang Yuan's pain in his left arm intensified, and he discovered that his internal energy was rapidly dissipating!
"how so?"
Zhang Yuan immediately used the Azure Cloud Step to retreat several meters, coldly staring at the Vajra Corpse.
"It must be from being poisoned by corpses!"
Seeing that Zhang Yuan was no match for him, the Vajra Corpse became even more excited, letting out a strange laugh. Then, in the blink of an eye, its body reappeared in front of Zhang Yuan, unleashing a powerful and heavy slash.
Zhang Yuan used his Moon Sword to defend, but was forced back three steps by the Vajra Corpse!
"My internal energy is draining away so quickly!"
No, we have to get rid of this guy right now!
Master Jia, standing outside the cordon, watched Zhang Yuan go from having the upper hand to being no match for the Vajra Corpse. He was extremely anxious and shouted to Zhang Yuan, "If we really can't beat him, let's forget about the money and run away together!"
