In the corridor, the zombie whose hand had been severed looked particularly miserable.
However, Ma Glasses, the instigator, showed not the slightest hint of sympathy on his face.
It seemed he didn't think Sun Yan would still be a match after displaying such a technique.
"The skill of Refining Corpse has almost been lost since the Great Qing cleanup last century. To refine this zombie, I specially spent a hefty sum buying this Nine Python Five Claw Robe and Headdress from a private overseas museum,
This is an authentic Man Qing first-class martial officer's robe, carrying residual national and official fortune. Using it to refine zombies can compensate for the lack of Corpse Nurturing Land. Do you think you can handle it?
I'm telling you, I've currently unleashed less than thirty percent of its power for it. Previously, I've warned you several times to leave, but you didn't take it seriously. Since you've asked for death yourself, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Ma Glasses took out a folded banner cloth from his bosom and unfolded it.
Then the Tibetan Scripture on the banner was revealed, likely a kind of magical artifact from Esoteric Buddhism.
Before Sun Yan could react, a skinny arm covered in sutras slowly extended from the banner cloth.
Next, an Evil Spirit with long hair covering its face and the upper half wrapped in a Talisman crawled out.
Its long tongue hung down, pierced through by a nail at its tip, striking its throat.
The moment this Evil Spirit appeared, the temperature of the entire corridor dropped by over ten degrees.
It wasn't a change in temperature but rather Yin Energy, extremely concentrated Yin Energy. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novel⁂fire.net
"Corpse Dissolving Immortal?!"
Seeing the Evil Spirit instantly, Sun Yan, who felt familiar, immediately recognized its appearance.
It was the same guy who previously hanged himself at home, conducting a ritual for becoming a Corpse Dissolving Immortal before death.
Unexpectedly, after death, its soul was captured by Ma Glasses.
Seeing Sun Yan's shocked expression, Ma Glasses revealed a smug smile, speaking in an insidiously sly tone: "Actually, when you came to my house before, I didn't tell you this; Ben Wei was my apprentice,
He was very young when he contracted cancer, which modern medicine couldn't cure. So, I taught him the method of Corpse Dissolving Immortal, as the last hope to cling to survival,
This thing was about to succeed. If Ben Wei could have succeeded, as a Ghost Immortal helping me, I wouldn't need to kill so many lives and go through painstaking efforts to refine this zombie,
You and that fat guy are the ones who should die. You interrupted the hope of someone seeking survival from death. Now, no matter what you say, nothing can stop me from living a second life."
Ma Glasses suddenly covered the zombie's back with the banner cloth, allowing the Evil Spirit crawling from the fabric to dive into its body.
The originally expressionless zombie suddenly rolled its eyes and showed unexpected agility.
"A being with a soul but no spirit, a being with a spirit but no soul. Is this guy attempting to create a Corpse Demon?"
Sun Yan was shocked, his mind instantly recalling a passage he'd seen in the Mountain Chasing Manual.
It stated that zombies, being outside the six paths, although able to move, were essentially no different from puppets.
Evil Spirits also fall outside the six paths and can only find peace after their souls scatter. They have no tangible form but possess consciousness.
These two are the ultimate representation of evil beings' soul and spirit. If they combine, a terrifying Corpse Demon will be born.
A Corpse Demon is not only impervious to weapons, endlessly strong, but also incredibly powerful and bloodthirsty.
Once such a beast is born, it will inevitably trigger a devastating catastrophe wherever it roams unchecked.
Sun Yan could hardly believe someone managed to create this in the Youma Community.
Ma Glasses added more fuel, directly tearing off the Copper Coin Mask originally worn on the zombie's face.
This mask was crafted from Five Emperors Coins, strung together with a red cord. Five Emperors Coins refer to copper coins with circular shapes and square holes.
In ancient popular customs, there was always a tradition of using Ancient Bronze Coins to ward off evil and invite blessings, typically stringing together five coins to represent the five heavenly emperors of the east, south, west, north, and center to repel evil and welcome fortune.
If worn on a zombie's face, it could suppress the Yin Energy within, restraining its power.
The removal of the Copper Coin Mask signified the complete release of this zombie, reminiscent of how Sosia in werewolf form was slammed against the wall by the zombie previously.
Now Sun Yan had a sudden bad premonition.
Hopefully, his magical artifact could withstand it...
"It's you, I'm going to kill you, spoil my plans!"
The zombie's gray nails crazily elongated. Seeing Sun Yan standing before it, it seemed to remember something, incoherently roaring.
Before Ma Glasses could shake the Corpse-Controlling Bell, the zombie had already charged towards Sun Yan, resembling a beast.
With one hand clutching the Golden Seal in his pocket, Sun Yan's Golden Halberd in hand suddenly radiated a brilliant golden light.
The Mountain-Opening Fierce General Nuo Mask on his face seemed to come alive, an invisible force enveloping Sun Yan's entire body.
With a step forward, he swung the Golden Halberd fiercely.
As the Golden Halberd struck the zombie's chest, a crisp metallic sound echoed, as if it hit a piece of steel instead of flesh.
Sun Yan felt his arm go numb, his body recoiling backwards, about to fall to the ground.
Two furry hands suddenly held his body, preventing Sun Yan from falling flat.
