Youbao Chapter 11: Killing the Corpse (11)
This poison made me feel scared. Fortunately, the old Taoist priest was by my side when I came here on the first day, otherwise I would have died long ago.
A sharp flute sounded, and the green light on the bronze-armored corpse's skin became more and more obvious. Even though I was more than ten meters away, I could still hear the banging sounds coming from its body.
Like a tank being injected with diesel, the bronze corpse roared wildly and reached directly into the black air with both hands. It stomped its right foot on the ground fiercely, and its two strong arms exerted force instantly, grabbing a humanoid figure wrapped in yellow air out of the black air.
Even after leaving the black gas, the corpse still could not be seen. The yellow gas was like a maggot attached to the bones, covering it completely. And this yellow gas seemed to be extremely toxic. Even the arms of the bronze-armored corpse, which were covered with corpse gas, were corroded with several holes.
However, the Bronze-Armored Corpse had no sense of pain. After grabbing the Ground-Raising Corpse, it turned around and used both hands to exert force, as if trying to throw the Ground-Raising Corpse out.
However, the ground-raised corpse was stronger than it, and its two yellow arms grabbed the copper-armored corpse's shoulders and dragged it hard. The copper-armored corpse howled and was dragged to the ground.
The slightly short ground-raised corpse raised its foot and kicked the bronze-armored corpse hard, as if it was a mountain of tens of thousands of tons, and the bronze-armored corpse was kicked into the ground.
I heard a muffled groan nearby, probably from Gamu. The bronze-armored corpse is connected to the corpse refiner's life, so if it is hurt, it will also be reflected in the corpse refiner.
It can be seen from this that the Earth-raising Corpse is indeed extremely powerful. Even the bronze-armored corpses that are comparable to dragons and tigers cannot withstand its strength. An old Taoist priest once said that the Earth-raising Corpse lives on the earth. As long as it stands on the ground, it can be as strong as it wants. It can be as stable as it wants. Because it is the earth, solid and unshakable.
The old Taoist priest kept wandering around, and no one knew what he was trying to do.
The talisman drawn with my blood has been used up, but I remember he also prepared an earth-condensing pill, which he hasn't used for some reason.
However, how do you use the Earth Condensation Pill?
As for Zhou Xuehai... the bronze-armored corpse was kicked into the ground, and he, who had been holding the demon-subduing sword to cut the black air, now became the target of attack.
The Earth-raising Corpse was silent and did not roar like the Bronze-Armored Corpse. However, its strength was greater than that of the Bronze-Armored Corpse.
He took an arm and chopped it with his sword, but only a few sparks flew out. The arm of the corpse was too strong, so it was useless to chop it with such a sharp sword.
A giant hand like granite turned around and grabbed the Demon-Subduing Sword. With a pull, Zhou Xuehai screamed and was pulled to the front of the underground corpse.
The corpse stretched out its hand and reached for Zhou Xuehai's neck. If it caught him, Zhou Xuehai would definitely die on the spot.
The old Taoist priest saw it more accurately than me. He rushed over the moment the corpse on the ground caught Zhou Xuehai.
A big foot kicked Zhou Xuehai out of the attack range of the ground corpse. However, he himself was exposed to the giant hand.
The threat from the old Taoist priest was obviously much greater than that from Zhou Xuehai. To Zhou Xuehai, the Earth Corpse simply wanted to crush him to death. But to the old Taoist priest, it stretched out two hands, and the yellow air lingering on its arms was like a dragon emerging from the sea, transforming into two copper sticks that fiercely smashed into the back of the old Taoist priest.
This was an extremely dangerous moment, and my heart was in my throat. If the old Taoist priest died, none of us present would survive.
Suddenly, another figure passed over my head. I only had time to see that it was a sturdy body.
With a loud bang, the figure that passed over my head took two yellow gas sticks and was hit back. A few drops of scarlet liquid dripped onto my hand. It was blood.
With Gamu holding up the yellow gas stick, the old Taoist shrank his body and barely avoided the attack of the two giant hands. But the earth-raising corpse was not so easy to deal with. The grabbing hand turned into a fist and hit the old Taoist's back.
The huge force that even the bronze-armored corpse could not resist caused the old Taoist's body to sink suddenly and rush to the ground like a falling meteor.
Just when his body was about to touch the ground, the old Taoist priest pushed his palms lightly on the ground like a wild goose, and rolled away.
This action is easy to say but difficult to do.
Although the old Taoist priest looks very old with half of his hair being gray, his body is as strong as those of gymnasts.
At the same time, there was a loud roar from underground, and a pair of large hands stretched out from underground, grabbed the legs of the ground-raised corpse and threw them away violently. When the ground-raised corpse lost its balance and shook for a while, the bronze-armored corpse with a bronze glow all over its body rushed out from underground and hugged the ground-raised corpse tightly.
The old Taoist priest, who had jumped away, supported himself with one hand and spun around like a top . Then he bent his legs, kicked hard on the ground, and leaped up like a cloud.
I saw his hand slap the corpse's head, and then the old Taoist priest rolled over and jumped over the corpse's head. The bronze-armored corpse made a crackling sound all over its body, and the corpse forcibly pulled its arm apart, grabbed it with one hand and threw it out.
Such a huge bronze-armored corpse was thrown out like a small stone, without any power to resist.
It's not that the bronze-armored corpse is too weak, but that the ground-raised corpse is too powerful. As long as it stands on the ground, it is difficult to defeat.
The old Taoist's pillar of fire didn't hurt it, and the bronze-armored corpse was fine after a few punches. As for Zhou Xuehai, he didn't even touch it.
The old Taoist priest who fell to the ground also turned around at this moment. However, he did not attack immediately, but stood there and swayed for a few times. It seemed that the old Taoist priest was injured.
Come to think of it, if an ordinary person had been hit by those two punches from Di Yangshi just now, his bones and muscles would have been broken, and his spleen would have bled to death. It was already quite amazing that the old Taoist priest could hold on and turn around to attack back.
At this time, I found that raising corpses on the ground seemed a little strange.
The yellow gas that was lingering around it was constantly trembling, sometimes thick and sometimes thin. In the end, the yellow gas actually went into it through its seven orifices. And the appearance of the corpse was also revealed in front of me.
Compared to the bronze-armored corpse, the earth-raising corpse is much more terrifying.
The body was tattered, with yellow gas drilling in and out of the holes from time to time, like maggots. Especially the face, who knows what kind of insects had dug into it when it was buried underground, and it was rotten beyond recognition. There were only a few pieces of rags on the body, hanging there and fluttering as if they were about to fall off.
Without the yellow gas covering them, the corpses on the ground looked almost the same as the zombies on TV.
Seeing the corpse reveal its true form, the old Taoist priest immediately exhaled from his mouth and waved his hands in the air continuously.
Green light followed the fingertips and drew mysterious spells in the air. In the dark night, the light spells were extremely conspicuous. Like a bright moon in the sky, it floated in the air and flickered continuously.
The corpse seemed to sense the danger and took a step to escape. And the direction it fled was exactly where I was.
I was so scared that I immediately stood up and turned to run. However, no matter how fast I ran, I couldn't catch up with the corpse.
Perhaps because they were attacked too many times, the corpses thought anyone who moved was an enemy. The pair of corpse claws with yellow gas constantly coming in and out grabbed at my back. When I turned around and saw this scene, my heart was about to fly away.
Suddenly, a strong figure appeared behind me.
At first I thought it was Gamu, but after looking more closely I found that it was the bronze-armored corpse.
The claw of the ground-raising corpse hit the copper-armored corpse's chest with a bang. I even saw the claw sticking out from the back of the copper-armored corpse.
Although the underground corpse with the yellow gas sucked into its body could not escape underground, its body strength and attack power were much improved than before. Otherwise, it would not have been able to pierce through the body of the bronze-armored corpse with one grab.
The five elements of heaven, open the six paths! The netherworld waterway! The old Taoist priest shouted not far away.
In the dense forest, the sound of a rushing river suddenly rang out. The sound was extremely dull, as if it was flowing from the underworld. A stream of cold air spread, and I seemed to see a river of rolling blue-black air pouring down from the sky.
I didn’t understand what the old Taoist priest was shouting, I only knew that the corpse-raising creature was now facing a real threat.
After its claws withdrew from the bronze-armored corpse's chest, it did not continue to attack, but stood there and shook continuously.
The yellow gas that was originally flowing through its body and could be seen from time to time suddenly disappeared. Instead, streaks of green and yellow light appeared in the holes of its tattered body.
Those lights were different from the old Taoist's light symbols, but instead flowed like water. They looked extremely gorgeous, with a mysterious feeling that made people intoxicated.
The bronze-armored corpse in front of him fell to the ground with a bang, and in the big hole on its chest, a green-yellow light was also flowing. The old Taoist priest came from a distance, his face was calm, but his body was a little crooked, and one hand was covering his chest, it seemed that he was seriously injured.
What happened to them? The old Taoist priest's calmness put my mind at ease, so I stood there and asked.
I opened the water of the underworld, flooded the ground to keep the corpse, and it will disappear in a while, said the old Taoist priest.
What about the bronze-armored corpse? I looked at the bronze-armored corpse lying motionless at my feet, feeling a little worried. Even the earth-raising corpse couldn't stand the underworld water, so the bronze-armored corpse would also die. After all, it was injured by the earth-raising corpse in order to protect me, so it was also attacked by the underworld water.
The old Taoist priest didn't explain, but walked to the bronze corpse and squatted down, stretched out his hand to draw a light symbol, and pressed his hand on the wound of the bronze corpse. The faint light flickered, and the old Taoist priest stood up: After cleaning up the corpse, I will send the underworld water away, it's nothing.
I was completely relieved, but then I thought of his injuries and asked: What about you, are you okay?
Fortunately, I won't die. The old Taoist priest said perfunctorily, and then turned his attention to the corpse.
It would be best if I don't die, otherwise who would compensate me for my broken bones? Gamu coughed and walked out of the woods.
After taking the blow from the corpse, Gamu, who was so strong, was still seriously injured. He limped to the side of the old Taoist priest, looked at the wound of the bronze-armored corpse, and then frowned.
I will give you two Dragon Tiger Pills later, said the old Taoist priest.
Well, I helped you for nothing. Otherwise, not to mention that the bronze corpse hurt my mind, it would cost a lot just to repair the bronze corpse that was invaded by the underworld water. Old man Gamu laughed, but then he coughed again.
By the way, where is the boy from the Zhou family? asked old man Gamu.
I'm here... Zhou Xuehai came over from the other side holding the demon-subduing sword.
He seemed to be seriously injured and his cough was even more severe than that of old man Gamu.
What? Are you injured? asked old man Gamu.
It's nothing, it's just that the old man kicked me a little too hard, I guess I broke two bones, I just need to rest for a while, Zhou Xuehai said.
He was nearly killed by the underground corpse before, luckily the old Taoist priest kicked him away, otherwise, the outcome would not just be two broken bones.
That's not bad. Well, wait here for a while, it will take some time to destroy the land and raise the corpse. Gamuluotuo said.
Zhou Xuehai nodded and walked up with sword in hand.
How long will it take? he asked.
Half an incense stick, the old Taoist priest replied.
That was also very quick. Zhou Xuehai nodded and asked again: I heard that the earth-raising corpses are born in the extreme land, and will then find another extreme land to cultivate their offspring, so they will carry corpse pills when they move. As long as they find a suitable place, they can take out the corpse pills and combine them with the dead corpses to derive new earth-raising corpses.
Yes, that's right, the old Taoist priest replied.
Corpse pills are the essence of the earth-nourished corpse, so they should be hard to be invaded by the water of the underworld, right? Zhou Xuehai asked.
Well, it will probably be done in a little while, the old Taoist said.
It seems that I need to do it as soon as possible. Zhou Xuehai said.
What he said sounded strange. Not only did I find it strange, but even the old Taoist priest turned around and looked at him.
At this moment, Zhou Xuehai suddenly stabbed with a sword. The old Taoist groaned, and although he dodged, his arm was still pierced.
