Chapter 84 Alienated Zombies, Transformed Corpse Servants
After talking for a long time.
Zhang Xuancai got up and left the martial arts school. Before leaving, he warmly invited Lin Zhou, saying that he would definitely treat him to a drink at the Drunken Immortal Restaurant in the city.
After walking out of the martial arts school and turning the corner of the street, Zhang Xuan's expression became more serious.
"Mastery of Transformation Realm."
"How could his cultivation level have improved so quickly in just one or two years?"
"This Lin Zhou must have some kind of extraordinary opportunity..."
Qinglong Mountain.
At this moment, Zhang Xuan recalled the intelligence information he had obtained about Lin Zhou.
When the other party first arrived and took charge of Qinghe County, he just happened to escape the calamity that swept through several top sects.
If it's just a coincidence...
But how did the other party advance from Ming Jin to Hua Jin in such a short time?
If it wasn't a sudden epiphany, then it must have come from consuming some rare and precious herb.
Based on the traces of the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect's branch martial arts school, Zhang Xuan also discovered that the school's personnel had previously swarmed out to search for something around Qinghe County.
Later, Bai Diao from the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect, as well as Qing Que and others, also came for a few days.
It's possible that within those few days, Lin Zhou obtained some kind of precious medicine.
He can be considered a lucky person.
"With this guy around, if the other side wants to cause trouble, then this branch of the Bajiquan martial arts school won't be able to operate smoothly."
Zhang Xuan's mood was completely different from when he first arrived in Qinghe County.
I thought there were only a few big cats and small cats in Qinghe County.
The cultivation of internal strength is the highest level one can achieve.
Furthermore, the only threatening branch leader of the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect is still identified as having the Ming Jin skill level in the intelligence reports.
Zhang Xuan came here intending to intimidate the other party, but unexpectedly, he ended up intimidating himself instead.
"It seems we need to plan carefully and proceed gradually."
After learning about Lin Zhou's background upon their first encounter, Zhang Xuan decided to change his previous strategy of large-scale expansion.
If things don't go your way and you offend Chief Lin, who knows what kind of person he might be?
After all, any branch leader who is stationed outside the martial arts school can cultivate more Ming Jin martial artists or find more martial arts talents with special abilities if they achieve good results.
Then they will receive more sect contribution points.
Zhang Xuan came here because the Eight Extremes Sect was expanding rapidly and he wanted to earn contribution points. He thought he had chosen an easy target and even bought information about Lin Zhou, spending a lot of money.
But now it seems we're going to lose money.
...
at this time.
In the backyard of the martial arts hall at the Sword Sect branch.
Lin Zhou's eyes seemed to be deep in thought. It was suspected that the True Yuan Realm cultivator from the Heavenly Extreme Sect had been in the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect for a long time, and Zhang Xuan had only heard of him.
As for what happened to that master, no one knows.
soon.
The sun had climbed to its zenith.
"Check-in"
[Check-in successful]
[Acquired a Level 1 affix: Corpse Transformation!]
[Corpse Transformation: After equipping this item, the body will rapidly decay, and corpse energy will condense within, gradually transforming the user into a wandering corpse.]
hum!
When the term "corpse transformation" appeared in the term database, the other two level 1 terms in the database immediately reacted.
The three level 1 entries are located close to each other.
The combination of [Level 1 Affix: Corpse Transformation] + [Level 1 Affix: Infectious Evil Aura] + [Level 1 Affix: Crown with Bloodthirsty Corpse Aura] can be used to create two Level 3 affix advancement paths.
Synthesis Method 1: [Level 3 Attribute: Mutated Zombie Bloodline], which allows one to become a mutated zombie, impervious to blades and spears, and able to control corpse energy. After mutating the zombie bloodline, the physical strength is comparable to the early stage of the Gang Jin realm, and the corpse energy within the body can launch a wide-range attack on martial artists below the Gang Jin realm.
[Note: You can select one zombie servant to convert.]
Synthesis Method Two: [Level 3 Attribute: Green Skull Mountain Corpse] The Green Skull Mountain Corpse is a corpse cultivated by the Green Skull Taoist priest himself on Green Skull Mountain. It is impervious to water and fire, wears black jade armor, wields a long spear, and possesses unparalleled close-combat power, comparable to an early-stage Qi Refining cultivator. A corpse leaving Green Skull Mountain will have its strength reduced by about 10-20%.
Lin Zhou looked at the two level 3 abbreviations in front of him.
With the mutated zombie bloodline, this physical strength is comparable to that of a Qi Refining expert. Not only that, but it can also control the evil energy within its body to attack Qi Refining experts below the Core Formation level.
This is indeed an excellent choice.
Moreover, its main function is to kill enemies at the Core Formation stage over a large area.
This kind of group attack is also what Lin Zhou needs.
Furthermore, you can also gain a transformation into a zombie servant.
As for the other Yin Corpse from Green Skull Mountain, although it has equipment and is quite good in close combat, it also has the side effect of its combat power being reduced when it leaves Green Skull Mountain.
Unfortunately, I can't choose both.
Choose the first mutated zombie bloodline.
[A level 3 affix, Mutated Zombie Bloodline, has been acquired.]
Replace the entry.
Lin Zhou's thoughts stirred slightly.
In the entry, the first position has been replaced by the mutated zombie bloodline.
Back inside the house, Lin Zhou activated his ability, and his body began to rapidly expand to a height of about ten feet. His entire body was covered with a layer of dark green scales, and a pair of bull horns grew on his head.
His eyes turned blood red, and his entire body exuded an astonishing aura of bloodlust.
thump!
thump!
At this moment, Lin Zhou could clearly feel his heart in his chest, which was like a burning furnace, providing his body with unparalleled power with each beat.
"Is this the power of the Gang Jin level?"
Lin Zhou clenched his fists, and a feeling arose in his heart that he could shatter a mountain with a single punch.
This force is at least ten times stronger than that of the Silver-Winged Flying Leopard.
The two are not even in the same order of magnitude.
Then,
Lin Zhou triggered the Silver-Winged Flying Leopard in the second entry position.
On its dark green scales, a small patch of white downy hairs grew out from between the scales.
Moreover, a pair of silver wings sprouted from its back.
With a slight thought, Lin Zhou's pair of white wings, under the influence of the baleful aura within the zombie corpse, gradually transformed from white to light green, and the wings also increased in size.
Click!
At this moment, Lin Zhou exerted only a slight force, and two holes appeared under his feet.
Looking at the pit under his feet inside the room, Lin Zhou knew that the power he had just mastered was not yet fully refined and he needed to gradually familiarize himself with it.
To fully unleash the power of this internal energy, you need to find a place and practice more.
At the same time, some information about the zombie servant transformation also surfaced in Lin Zhou's mind. The minimum required cultivation level was Ming Jin, and the maximum was An Jin. After the transformation, the servant would be extremely loyal to Lin Zhou.
It's the same kind of situation as Lu Ling, who was previously controlled.
Furthermore, after the zombie servants are transformed, they may be afraid of all treasures with the Yang attribute, and their combat power will also increase slightly at night.
On the night of a full moon, one's combat power can even be doubled.
As the one who bestows zombie bloodline upon the other party, Lin Zhou can control their life and death.
As for other side effects of the zombie minions, not much information came to mind; it was just a very basic, preliminary understanding.
"The candidates for the zombie servants..."
Lin Zhou didn't pay much attention to the restrictions on these zombie servants, which were at most limited to internal energy.
"Um?"
At this moment, Lin Zhou seemed to sense something.
A faint fluctuation of energy emanated from the front yard, and a faint spiritual energy appeared within one person's body.
"A disciple has advanced to the Ming Jin level."
Special bloodline?
Suddenly, Lin Zhou seemed to realize something.
The transformation of his own bloodline from a zombie servant is equivalent to becoming a special bloodline disciple sought after by the sect.
Notice.
If I can find a disciple with a special bloodline in this martial arts school and bring him back to the main sect, I will be able to get a considerable amount of contribution points as a reward.
They can even be exchanged for the pills needed by a cultivator at the Core Formation stage.
Even without exchanging for the Core Formation Pills, one can still exchange for quite a few pills for Lin Zhou's current cultivation at the Core Formation stage.
"This disciple has just broken through to the Qi Realm."
Lin Zhou seemed to be deep in thought.
Many disciples in martial arts schools did not show any special talent when they were young, but some of them advanced to the Ming Jin level of cultivation.
His physical body underwent its first tempering in martial arts, creating a qualitative difference from ordinary people.
Once a powerful aura is generated around his body, he can fight against even strange beasts in the wild, and may even be able to kill them.
A martial artist with internal energy has already begun to transcend the realm of ordinary martial artists.
This is why martial artists specializing in internal energy cultivation are able to establish their own gangs in some county towns.
A few breaths later.
Lin Zhou returned to his original form, then slightly opened his mouth and spat out a deep purple toad tongue, at the end of which was a black mist vortex several feet in diameter.
After flying out of the vortex, he put on a complete set of black, tight-fitting clothes.
Lin Zhou now genuinely feels that having to stretch his clothes to shreds every time his body shape changes is really inconvenient.
That's why I placed several complete sets of clothes in the giant toad's stomach storage space, just in case.
Lin Zhou, having changed his clothes, walked out of the house.
They headed straight for the front yard.
"Helmsman."
"Greetings, Master."
At this moment, many disciples in the front courtyard gathered around a man with a simple and honest face, a square face, and wearing a black and white striped martial arts disciple's robe.
He stood among the crowd, his face beaming with excitement.
At this moment, a faint fluctuation of energy was emanating from the disciple.
"Master, this one who just advanced to the Ming Jin level is Chen Liu Zi, whom I mentioned to you before."
Xiang Cong, standing to the side, explained to Lin Zhou with a smile on his face.
"That's it."
Lin Zhou nodded in response, having already made his judgment.
Chen Liuzi was able to break through the Qi barrier, probably because he had made contributions when he was at Qinglong Mountain.
The martial arts school provided a batch of breakthrough pills, which helped Chen Liuzi break through to the Ming Jin cultivation level.
Once you break through to the Ming Jin level, it means you've been promoted from the bottom.
Swish!
Lin Zhou lightly stomped his foot, and a burst of Yin energy, ready to be unleashed, flew out from his dantian along the sole of his foot, and drilled into Chen Liuzi's feet from underground.
"ah!!"
In the blink of an eye, Chen Liuzi, who had just been promoted to Ming Jin and was extremely excited, was there.
Suddenly, I felt a tearing pain in my legs, which spread from my feet all the way to my chest, and my internal organs felt like they were being torn apart.
A faint red aura of malevolence emanated from its surface.
A pale green scale grew on its body, its eyes turned pale red, and a pair of small fleshy horns grew on its head.
The spiritual energy within his body increased several times over in a short period of time, at least from the initial stage of Ming Jin to the perfect stage of An Jin.
He was just one step away from reaching the Transformation Realm.
This represents a significant increase in strength.
"What... what is this?"
Xiang Cong watched this scene with wide eyes, his eyes filled with astonishment, but then, as if he had thought of something, his expression became excited.
"Master, this is a special talent..."
He said excitedly.
"Yes, that should be it."
"It seems that Chen Liuzi really has potential. We can discover someone with special talent and bring him back to the sect."
"Once I report it, as the head of the martial arts school, you will definitely be credited with a commendation."
"In the future, this martial arts school will receive more resources than other martial arts schools."
Lin Zhou nodded and explained.
"Special talent!?"
"Brother Liu has a special talent! Our Qinghe County is about to produce a martial artist who has reached the Core Formation stage!"
"I, Zhang Dashan, will one day be able to say that I know a martial artist who has reached the Dan realm."
"Brother Liu".
After experiencing a few breaths of pain during the transformation into a zombie servant, Chen Liuzi's consciousness was filled with new memories as the pain subsided.
Many of them are about their current leader, Lin.
"Owner…"
Chen Liuzi looked at Lin Zhou, who was a few dozen steps away, with reverence in his eyes.
Lin Zhou nodded slowly, gazing at the scene from afar.
"Haha, our martial arts school has finally made it through this time."
Xiang Cong's eyes were filled with joy.
He knew very well that if a disciple with special talent appeared in a martial arts school within the sect, he, as the school's head, would also receive some sect contribution points.
These contribution points are the truly invaluable thing.
It can be said that rare and precious materials that have never been seen outside, as well as a huge amount of elixirs and medicines, can all be exchanged using sect contribution points.
Now that Xiang Cong is older, he can use this amount of sect contribution points to exchange for the pills he needs to repair the old wounds he suffered while healing.
Only in this way could he live longer and train more disciples for his martial arts school.
And taking care of her own grandchildren.
...
In the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed.
A carriage bearing the banner of the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect sped out from the north gate of Qinghe County, leaving two very obvious tracks on the white snow.
The three strange horses pulling the chariot were all strong and each had a single horn on its head.
It is a unique horse race specially bred by the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect.
Lin Zhou sat calmly cross-legged on a soft animal hide in the carriage, meditating peacefully.
Beside the carriage sat two boys, their faces beaming with excitement. One was Chen Liuzi, and the other was a boy of similar age to Chen Liuzi.
However, the other young man who broke through to the Ming Jin level was the direct descendant of a martial arts family in Qinghe County, and had been nurtured with various qi and blood pills since childhood.
Therefore, they were able to stand out from the crowd.
