Chapter 137
The sound of footsteps sounded slowly, and a figure slowly walked out of the cave.
This man was wearing a robe of an outer disciple of the Heyin Sect and holding a long black sword in his hand. He approached Zhou Shu step by step. Without saying anything, he raised the long sword and stabbed Zhou Shu directly.
Zhou Shu took out a quagmire talisman and threw it out without hesitation, trapping the man in the quagmire. He then jumped back a few feet and carefully looked at the cultivator in front of him.
The man's face was livid, without any blood, his pupils were red, and there was no trace of energy at all. His body exuded bursts of strong evil aura, which was as cold as bone-chilling, and it was as cold as winter within three feet.
He stared at Zhou Shu, his pupils became increasingly red, his lips moved slightly, and he kept making hissing sounds. He raised the long sword in his hand and shot out sharp sword rays.
Zhou Shu dodged the sword light and looked a little serious.
The cultivator in front of me can no longer be called a human being, he is a corpse!
What is a corpse?
The evil corpse is similar to the corpse refining. They are both methods used by some cultivators who have practiced evil arts to enhance their own strength. However, the difference is that the corpse refining is made from the corpses of dead people, while the evil corpse is made from living corpses.
Refined by practitioners.
To refine the evil corpse, the cultivator needs to take the poisonous elixir made from the evil elixir of the evil beast, and then cultivate it using a special method.
For normal cultivators, it is useless whether it is refining elixirs or anything else, but for evil cultivators, it is an excellent material for refining evil corpses.
Compared with the infinitely powerful Refined Corpse on the Tongshan Iron Wall, the Evil Corpse also has its own special features. It is extremely bloodthirsty and can use the magic techniques of the original cultivator, making it no different from a living person.
Although the method of refining corpses has been criticized in the world of immortality, it is still considered a normal method for cultivators. The world of immortality can tolerate it, but refining evil corpses and using cultivators as their own materials is not allowed by heaven. Everyone
Get it and kill it.
The evil corpse in front of me was obviously made by disciples of the Heyin Sect. This matter is no small matter.
Zhou Shu looked at the cave behind the evil corpse, his expression becoming more solemn. He didn't know if the person who refined the evil corpse was in the cave. If he was, he would be doomed to attack with the evil corpse.
It seemed like I should run away immediately.
But Zhou Shu only thought for a moment, then quickly moved forward, taking advantage of the opportunity when the evil corpse was trapped in the mire, and launched a fierce offensive against the evil corpse.
Zhou Shu decided to get rid of the evil corpse and figure out the matter by himself.
Because everything seems very strange. Refining evil corpse is a very special secret method. The materials required are also very rare. It even requires third-level and fourth-level materials. So many things, such a rare secret method, but it is used in a refining process.
For cultivators at the seventh level of the Qi Realm, this is a complete waste of resources, which is weird no matter how you look at it.
To put it inappropriately, this is another type of overkill. No normal person would do this. Who would want to give a top-notch piece of equipment to passers-by?
Besides, cultivators who can know how to refine evil corpses are definitely above the foundation-building level, and they can definitely use their spiritual sense to detect their surroundings.
This person who was refining the evil corpse was refining the evil corpse within the control of the Heyin Sect, and was discovered by himself, a disciple of the Heyin Sect. He knew that he would definitely attract the full revenge of the Heyin Sect, but he didn't immediately rush to kill and silence him.
Even though he had been exploring the valley for so long, there was no movement at all. It was obvious that he was either not here or already dead.
No matter what, it will be very beneficial to Zhou Shu and worth a try.
Two long swords clashed, one black and one white, both using the Rapid Rain Sword Technique, with the same moves, and the sound of clanging collisions was endless.
The Evil Corpse was trapped in the mire. Although he could not move, he swung the sword extremely fast and hard. Before he became the Evil Corpse, he must have put a lot of effort into the Rapid Rain Sword Technique. Every sword move was extremely skillful.
, deeply understand the essence of sword tactics.
Moreover, the long sword in the hands of the evil corpse is definitely not ordinary. When it collides with Zhou Shu's second-level mid-level Zhuyun Sword, it does not fall behind at all. Each sword is like a huge stone pressing down with great force, or it is
The material of the sword is unusual, or the sword comes with auxiliary techniques to increase its strength.
If Zhou Shu hadn't gained a deeper understanding of sword techniques, he would have been defeated in just a few moves, but at this time, the two of them were fighting inextricably.
After fighting fiercely for a while, Zhou Shu gradually relaxed.
They had such a fierce battle at the entrance of the cave, and no one came out of the cave. This further confirmed his previous idea that the only danger here was the evil corpse.
The person who made the corpse was either not there at all, or already dead.
Feeling this, he focused all his attention on the sword technique.
Like the group of bats, this evil corpse, whose cultivation level was similar to his and was very skilled in sword techniques, also became the target for him to practice sword techniques.
In a short period of time, it seemed like two bursts of rain fell alternately.
Snapped!
A flash of sword light flashed through, directly cutting off the evil corpse's right hand, and the black sword fell down with it.
Not only did the evil corpse feel no pain, it actually showed more courage. It used both words and hands to expel clouds, fireballs, and ice picks, and issued several spells in succession.
But these Qi Refining Realm magic formulas no longer pose much threat to Zhou Shu. Even if he doesn't care, Jin Liuli can block them. Zhou Shu raised the Cloud-Chasing Sword, knocked down the fireballs one by one, and immediately pierced them with one sword.
The corpse's throat ended his fate that was worse than death.
The Evil Corpse is different from the completely dead Refined Corpse. People are still alive and need food and drink, but they have just become a pure killing machine, similar to monsters. But they also have something in common with the Refined Corpse, that is, they are both hopeless.
.
As soon as the evil corpse died, the surrounding evil spirits gathered towards him, and the evil spirits on his body became more and more intense, gradually forming a vague smoke, covering his entire body, as if a layer of frost had enveloped him. If left unchecked,
If this continues for a period of time, it will turn into something like a corpse monster, which is even more terrifying.
Zhou Shu looked at it for a few times and didn't move for now, planning to deal with it after he finished exploring the cave.
He picked up the black long sword casually and felt something different when he started to hold it. It was very heavy, somewhat similar to the Shenxing iron hoe, but it seemed to be made of better material. The sword head was blunt and edgeless, and "Black Star" was engraved on the sword.
The two ancient characters are full of spiritual energy, and they are also second-level mid-level. No wonder they can compete with Zhuyun Sword.
Putting away the Black Star Sword, Zhou Shu stood for a while and felt that the evil energy in other places except the corpse was decreasing, so he walked towards the cave.
Obviously, this evil corpse is the source of the evil spirit. Once the evil corpse dies, the evil spirit in the valley gradually dissipates.
The cave is not too long, and after walking for several dozen feet, we reached the end.
At the end was a small grotto. No matter what was in the grotto, Zhou Shu's eyes immediately fell on the center of the grotto.
There was actually a person sitting cross-legged in the middle, a person who looked like a skeleton. The outline of the bones on his back were clearly visible, and he was extremely thin.
The man's back was turned to Zhou Shu, and he didn't know whether he was dead or alive.
Zhou Shuwan didn't expect that there was actually someone inside, but he couldn't feel a trace of spiritual power from this person. He was relieved that this person was probably not a cultivator.
The man seemed to feel it. He turned around slowly, looked at Zhou Shu with extremely dry eyes, and showed a strange smile.
Zhou Shu was suddenly startled, "Is it you?"
