Turns out I'm a Great Cultivator
Chapter 660: Unexpected Change, Heavenly Zombie Pulling Sword
Yang Jing and Xiao Chengfeng's expressions became grim as they saw what was happening to the people behind them.
“What do you think, Old Xiao?” asked Yang Jing grimly.
“There must be something strange going on there,” Xiao Chengfeng said. “You will not feel anything strange from the outside, but once inside, it will show its original color. Those who did not have a strong cultivation would be instantly sucked dry. It's like black gas luring us inward before it hooks up to us!”
Yang Jing nodded her head. “This is most likely what happened. This is not the work of the dead.”
They did not need to worry because their cultivation was quite strong and in a short time, they arrived at the center of the black clouds. Their expressions became even gloomier and their hearts fell to the bottom when they saw what was in front of them. The sky had turned pitch-black as if black ink had spilled from the sky. It was filled with despair, frustration, and mania.
They sensed that the beings in this world had coexisted peacefully before this calamity suddenly attacked them. Those creatures don't fade. They're just blackening. The black cloud must have erupted like Mount Vesuvius because some bodies were found in the position of the previous activity they were doing. Some were frozen in the middle of laughter, some were frozen while cultivating the ground, and some were even drinking!
However, most of the faces of the cultivators were filled with fear. They can clearly feel the despair and pain they feel when faced with the awareness of their impending death. Even animals and plants. It's a dead planet. Their frustration condensed into something tangible that howled in the sky. Yang Jing used her third eye to peek through the gas and saw millions of annoyed spirits circling around the black katana.
The murderous aura that the black katana exerted was even more terrifying than the millions of annoyed spirits swirling around it. It was horrifying that Yang Jing had a safety pin piercing her skull and she had to look away to stop the prickling sensation in her third eye.
“This is a cursed sword. It made this world a hell in an instant and was stained by the blood of a billion creatures, ” Yang Jing said in a hoarse voice.
“This sword should not exist in this universe. We have to stop him from killing more creatures, ”yell Xiao Chengfeng. They are saddened by the tragic circumstances of this world. Their world could end up like this if the same thing happened while still weak. They couldn't help but shudder at the thought of it.
The other seven figures had arrived and their expressions had also changed drastically when faced with the sword.
“What hatred is this? It was as if the only purpose of life was to kill. Why did it show up here? ”
“Light of the blade alone is enough to annihilate this world. What was worse was, it could condense the hatred of the creatures it killed and forever chain their spirits there. This is a fate worse than death.”
“This is the weapon to end all the world. Heaven-defying weapon!”
The fact that they could get there safely meant that they had the cultivation of the Heavenly Realm, but even so, the oppressive energy exerted by the sword made them difficult to breathe and they sensed that where they were sucked.
“Brothers, I have a proposal to make,” said Yang Jing, stepping out to face the group. “The sword is cursed and the black gas shows no signs of stopping its spread. There is no doubt that our universe will turn to ashes if we do not stop it. His existence is not good for us. We must unite and seal it from the world.”
“Count me!” said a middle-aged man. He held one hand over his fist as a sign of respect and smiled at Yang Jing. “Hail God of Justice Heavenly Palace.”
Yang Jing recognized him. The man came from one of the influential powers in the Area of the Gods. Immediately, he countered his movements as a sign of respect.
“Count me too! This sword has caused boundless suffering. We better seal it than let it fall into the wrong hands,” said an old man.
Yang Jing and Xiao Chengfeng turned to look at the old man and smiled. He was their old friend—an elder of the White Cloud Sect.
The others also nodded their heads after some consideration.
“This area is completely enveloped by hateful spirits. Those who are not from the Heavenly Realm should not enter to prevent unnecessary deaths. We have to seal this area, ”follow someone.
“Good idea!”
Just as they were getting ready to close the area, a majestic aura came from the distance and swept over them like a strong wind. They did not even have time to take a good look as the gigantic golden fist flew over from a distance, flattening everything in its path to the ground. The laws of the universe swirled around a golden fist and it had created a wound in Chaos the moment it fell from the sky with a suppressive force that consumed all. This could be the last thing they see in the world.
“It's small fry!” Everyone present frowned and attacked the golden fist at the same time.
The next moment, four people appeared in front of them. They exuded an aura filled with death and hatred. It was an aura that was almost the same as the black gas that gave everyone's backbones goosebumps. The group consisted of two Emperor Corpses and two zombies. The two zombies had the appearance of an old man with hooded eyes. They looked as if they were about to fall even on a gentle breeze that belied the fact that they were cultivators of the Heavenly Realm! The other two Emperor Corpses had green faces, long fangs, black metal skin, and green fur growing from their joints. The four of them were holding ancient bronze coffins that exuded a strange aura.
Yang Jing was no stranger to green-faced men. “They are from Zombie Bloodline. What are they doing here?” he asked with a frown.
“We should have calculated unexpected changes like this into our plans and brought more people with us,” Xiang Chengfeng said anxiously.
The Zombie World was an existence similar to the Ministry. What was worse was that they were the ones who created the corpse of the Wisdom Elite King. Although the Elite King managed to escape in the end, it all proved how sickening their strength was.
The people in the Zombie World had the ability of refining corpses and would plunder graves for the corpses of powerful cultivators. They are also famous for their love of manic slaughter and are a curse to all human existence. However, humans could do nothing to them because they knew very little about the Zombie World and they knew even less about their terrifying strength.
“Come and grab it yourself! If you succeed, there will be a happy reunion. If you fail, there will still be a happy reunion. Mutual results for you, ” said one of the old men.
“I see that you're as reckless as ever. Why don't you stay a while since you're here? ”
“Brothers, I believe that I do not need to tell you all about the sins that the Zombie World has committed! Why don't we work together to exterminate them now that they're here?” suggest others from the group.
The old man ignored them and said, “I never expected a commotion of this magnitude in Chaos to be because of this sword. I actually brought the Divine Zombie here. We will get this sword any way!”
“Step my corpse first! You will pay to ignore our existence. Die!” The sword in his hand flew into the sky with a whistling sound and instantly a bright light burst forth, instantly illuminating the dark world. The sword light then flew straight towards the old man.
The Corpse Emperor behind the old man stepped out and punched the incoming sword. Although it was only a corpse, its mana was still intact, making it an unshakable existence in the world. The sword light was deflected by his punch. He did not stop there as he immediately sent out a direct attack at Xiao Chengfeng.
No one retreated, Xiao Chengfeng came face to face with the Emperor Corpse with a sword in her hand. “Come to me! The gods will not accept Xiao Chengfeng's birth, but my sword cultivation is still historic like a long night! Lightly Poisonous Dragon Sword! ”
“Everyone in the Zombie World deserves to die a terrible death!” the others shouted as they attacked the old man and the Corpse Emperor at the same time. Instantly, the sky was filled with the light of their mana and the echoes of their attacks.
Although Yang Jing's group had nine people, only six people joined the fight so it was six versus four. Even so, the people in the Zombie World showed no signs of defeat. The Corpse Emperor displayed a combat power so tyrannical that they were able to defeat the warriors of the Heavenly Realm.
Yang Jing and the other two watched from the sidelines, ready to join the fight quickly. The reason they had not joined the fight from the start was because they could feel the people in the Zombie World hiding a terrifying existence in the coffin, so they choose to stay behind if they need to deal with it.
Just as they were thinking about it, one of the old men suddenly made a hand seal on the bronze coffin. “Zombie heavenly, Wake up!” he said with a hoarse voice and bright eyes flashed.
Soon, a storm blew and the clouds split. The ancient bronze coffin trembled violently and the pattern on it began to glow bright red. The lid exploded and a black-and-gold corpse stood up as black gas swirled around it. A terrifying aura erupted from his body which caused everyone to stop what they were doing.
“What is it ... Guzhan?” yang Jing gasped as she looked at the corpse well. His pupils shrank rapidly and he had difficulty breathing.
Although his corpse had changed a lot, Yang Jing could still recognize him because the battle that took place on the ancient battlefield was so intense that it had been burned into these memories. Guzhan was extremely strong, especially after absorbing the energy ball he was carrying. At that moment, he was at the peak of the Heavenly Realm.
He was surprised to find the people from the Zombie World had turned him into a heavenly Zombie. He never knew that they could even purify Eldritch's corpse. He thought back to the scene when the corpse of the Elite King rushed into the ancient battleground. The people in the Zombie World must have chased after him and found Guzhan's corpse which they then brought back to their world.
The combat strength of Guzhan was not from the average Heavenly Realm. He was very close to becoming a Wisdom Elite after absorbing a large amount of energy in the ancient battleground. Therefore, his body should not be taken lightly.
“Everything, be careful,” said Yang Jing. They did not need him to remind them, as they could already feel the boundless pressure coming from Guzhan.
“Take out that sword!” the old man's orders.
Immediately, Guzhan stepped towards the emotionless sword on his face. With each fall of his feet, boundless power rose up and turned into strong winds that swept across the land.
“Stop him!” yang Jing shouted with a grim expression on her face as she charged at Guzhan with a gigantic sword light consisting of numerous sharp sword light.
The other two Heavenly Realm warriors also moved quickly. With a flick of his wrist, one of them manifested a dream-like flame and sent it to the sky with the laws of the universe as fuel. It was the fire of the Heavenly Realm and it turned into a giant rhinoceros that rushed straight to Guzhan. Another person was holding a purple-gold sword and had gathered thousands of golden-purple Sword Qi. Sword Qi also shot into the sky before hurtling towards Guzhan's head at lightning speed.
The attacks of the three Heavenly Realm warriors came at the same time. Apart from the black katana, everything around him was completely wiped out. Around them were empty plains as far as the eye could see. Guzhan took a step forward, raised both of his fists to his chest, and threw one punch after another. A powerful energy erupted from within his body and turned into air currents that swept across the ground. With that, he was able to withstand their attacks.
Guzhan roared and the mana light exploded, making Yang Jing and the other two fly. By the time the three of them recovered, Guzhan had already walked into the black katana. He then grabbed the handle without hesitation.
Immediately, everyone's ears began to be filled with the roars of countless hateful spirits as the black clouds blocked the sun in the sky. The fighters were shocked to their core and stood still with eyes staring at Guzhan. How could he not be affected by the black gas when countless living beings had been sucked in by the shin just by being nearby?
An infinite amount of black gas triggered thunder and lightning before it was finally absorbed into the black katana. Guzhan became the center of the vortex and was filled with boundless black gas.
The two old men from the Zombie World were overwhelmed with excitement. “Haha, it worked! I know our heavenly Zombie will be able to handle the Supreme Slaughtering Treasure! That sword will definitely increase his strength. He might even be on par with the Wisdom Elite with the sword he possessed.”
The escape of the Elite King's corpse was a huge blow to the people in the Zombie World. In fact, they still had not recovered from the defeat. Although they knew about the overwhelming power that the Elite King possessed, they never expected him to come back to life. They might not be able to use this black katana right now, but it was perfect for a Divine Zombie. They were confident that the Divine Zombie would become the best fighter in their world.
