Chapter 424: Damn it, Reanimation Jutsu has even appeared?

~13 min read 2,483 words

This magic cube was given to Ye Bai by Guijinyang, mainly to track the enemy's trail.

Through his spiritual power, Ye Bai can perceive the specific location of the magic cube.

At this moment, a smile appeared on the corners of his mouth: "Found you."

In a cemetery not far from the Young Qilin Cup.

An old man who was digging a tombstone suddenly stopped.

He could feel countless earthworms made of clay crawling out from underground.

These earthworms surrounded the old man, forming a circle.

"Hey, why are you all in such a rush to come find me?"

"So what if your bodies can't aggregate?"

"What's the big deal?"

"And you even brought a little tail along, and you didn't even notice?"

"You really are such a disappointment to me."

The old man put down the shovel in his hand and wiped his sweat with a towel hanging on his shoulder.

He waved his hand, and the ground suddenly began to shake as a pair of invisible hands emerged from the earth.

Earthworms that were twisting their bodies emerged from between the fingers.

However, under the pressure of the hands, the earthworms were quickly damaged, turning into a pile of scrap metal and scattering on the ground.

"Solved. Next time, don't run around everywhere; just stay where you are and don't move."

"That way you won't be followed back to me."

At this time, Ye Bai and the Heaven-Swallowing Pelican used Space Transfer to chase him here.

The man and the pelican appeared high in the sky.

At this moment, the old man looked up at the sky slowly.

"I was wondering why the magpies wouldn't stop chirping today; so a little mouse has come to visit."

Hearing someone suspected to be of the Seven Stars compare him to a mouse, Ye Bai was not annoyed.

Instead, he looked down from above, sizing up the old man.

"You must be one of the Seven Stars!"

"Seeing how skillfully you manipulate soil, could you be the Saturn, Earth Day?"

Ye Bai guessed aloud.

"Good eye!"

The old man gave a thumbs up directly.

His hands were covered in calluses, showing he was someone who labored often.

"However, you know too much. If I don't get rid of you, I'm afraid my secrets will leak out."

"You should be a member of the Twenty-Eight Mansions."

"May I ask what you are called?"

The old man said unhurriedly.

Many magic patterns appeared on the shovel in his hand; the old man had modified his magic staff into the shape of a shovel.

"Twenty-Eight Mansions, White Tiger Tooth, Kuimulang."

Ye Bai wore a smiling mask, and an aged voice came from his mouth.

"Kuimulang?"

"I remember the previous Kuimulang was very formidable; I just don't know how much you, the current one, are worth."

"I wonder how many of my moves you can take."

"Let me test it out."

The ground writhed directly, and a large white bird emerged from beneath Earth Day's feet, carrying Earth Day as it circled in the air.

He was level with Ye Bai's line of sight, a hint of a smile showing in his eyes.

"Come to think of it, I actually fought your predecessor a long time ago."

"His strength was very high; one strike could shatter a dozen of my clay puppets."

"Even my body was almost cut in two by a single blade."

The old man touched the hideous scar on his abdomen and said with a smile.

At this time, countless birds emerged from the body of the large white bird, rushing toward the direction where Ye Bai was.

The sound of violent wing flapping came from the sky.

"In order to defeat Kuimulang, I thought of many ways."

"I wanted to test it out early on, but it just so happened that Kuimulang went missing at that time."

"Since you are the successor, let you be the one to appraise it."

"Kuimulang, take this."

"Flying Bird Burial!"

Countless small birds made of clay were flying toward Ye Bai from all directions, and soon they surrounded Ye Bai completely.

Their bodies began to undergo Expansion in mid-air.

"Yo, yo, yo, do you think you're Deidara?"

Ye Bai said with a smile.

"Space Cut."

The Heaven-Swallowing Pelican flapped its wings violently, and the surrounding space made a crackling sound as cracks appeared in the sky.

It was as if there were an invisible barrier around Ye Bai; as soon as any flying bird crossed that barrier, it would lose its vitality and plummet from the high sky to the ground.

Then, with a bang, it would Self-Destruct, its body exploding into countless specks of dust.

"Rarely can a Pet Beast break my techniques."

"To think you managed to shatter the core of the clay puppet with your own strength."

"You truly have some skills; I have a new respect for you."

"However, what came before was merely an appetizer."

"After all, the strength of our Seven Stars is not weaker than yours."

"If you are even slightly careless, you might capsize in the gutter."

Tuyouri sneered as he spoke.

The strength of the Seven Stars is comparable to the Twenty-Eight Mansions, and their leader is even stronger than the Twenty-Eight Mansions; their overall strength can rival the Twelve Nation-Protecting Pillars.

Tuyouri is more proficient in using undead manipulation spells.

"Come forth, Pet Beasts buried in the graveyard."

"It is time for your resurrection."

The entire ground began to tremble violently, and suddenly, one coffin after another surged up from the ground.

These coffins were of various sizes.

Ye Bai's mouth twitched; what the hell, is this Reanimation Jutsu?

This was simply a speechless event.

The coffin lids were pried open one by one, and one ferocious Pet Beast after another emerged from the ground.

However, these Pet Beasts were all made of clay.

"Nice to meet you, please allow me to introduce myself; I am the fifth-ranked member of the Seven Stars, Tuyouri."

"My profession is an undead collector and undead gravedigger; I can use clay to summon the Soul of a dead undead and let it live another life in a clay body."

"The former Kuimulang was a collectible I desired, and the Beichen Sky Wolf Blade in your hand is also a collectible I dream of."

"So, please become my collection."

Tuyouri clasped his hands together and bowed to Ye Bai.

Countless Pet Beasts made of clay whistled as they lunged forward, surrounding Ye Bai completely in the blink of an eye.

"You have nowhere left to dodge; even the previous Kuimulang would have absolutely no chance of escaping alive under the siege of so many Pet Beasts."

"You are dead!"

A look of madness appeared in the old man's eyes.

At a thought from the old man, the Pet Beasts converged into a giant mass of clay, sealing Ye Bai inside.

"Haha, just feel the pain of suffocation inside the clay."

"Then I will turn you into a clay puppet, specifically to deal with the Twenty-Eight Mansions."

"I love watching comedies where one's own kind slaughters each other."

Just at this moment, the old man's hands suddenly snapped off and landed on the back of the flying bird with a thud.

A large amount of blood gushed out from his severed arms.

"This is what you call a villain dying from talking too much."

Ye Bai's voice came from behind him.

"My Heaven-Swallowing Pelican is proficient in the Space Transfer skill."

"You are far too confident."

"I had already transferred out before your clay even closed in."

Ye Bai felt that the Seven Stars were somewhat unworthy of their reputation.

The old man grinned in a Weird way.

"As expected of Kuimulang, truly troublesome, but can you tell if the me in front of you is the real me?"

The flow of blood gradually slowed, and a look of madness appeared on the old man's mouth.

However, Ye Bai soon felt that something was wrong, because the old man was far too calm, and that fresh blood had no scent of blood.

"Your clay puppet can actually achieve such a realistic disguise?"

"Then where is your true body hiding?"

Ye Bai also used the Truth Eye, only then discovering that the lifelike person before him was actually made of clay.

"My true body has long since slipped away; I created this Clone as soon as the clay closed in."

"Kuimulang, I have other urgent matters to attend to."

"Just obediently wash your neck and wait for my return."

"The conspiracy of our Seven Stars is even greater than you imagine."

"Besides, did you really think I didn't discover that mechanical wood?"

"Actually, I lured you out on purpose."

"My real body is currently rushing to the venue."

"You lot, drag him down for me; spare nothing to keep him here."

"When necessary, you may Self-Destruct your Soul Core to keep them here."

The previously vanished clay Pet Beasts appeared once more and surrounded Ye Bai again.

At this moment, the cleaner outside the competition venue suddenly swayed.

After he regained his senses, his eyes turned a Weird earthy yellow.

"It is time; it is time to prepare for action."

The cleaner had just raised his head when he saw Ye Bai waving at him from the side.

A smile played on Ye Bai's lips, yet it made him shudder with fear.

"Should I call you Han Zhuang, or should I call you Earth Day?"

"I never expected that your public identity would be a lonely old man over fifty, while in reality, you are the Seven Stars member who strikes terror into the underground world—Earth Day!"

"What exactly is your purpose for lurking in Yan Country?"

"If you are willing to tell me, I promise to leave your corpse intact."

Ye Bai waved his hands abruptly, and seven Ten Thousand Dragon Slashes appeared beside Earth Day.

They were sealing off Earth Day's escape route from all directions; if Earth Day moved even slightly, he would be pierced by the seven incoming swords.

"Haha."

Earth Day laughed out loud.

"Truly worthy of being Kuimulang, to have actually seen through the layout I meticulously set up."

"I haven't seen such an interesting person in a long time."

"If I weren't in such a rush, I would really like to spar with you properly, but that won't work now; to complete the mission assigned by the leader, I must finish this quickly."

"It's a pity that I didn't bring the Clay Army I placed in the cemetery, but dealing with you alone is enough."

Beneath Earth Day's feet, multiple giant-toothed Sharks made of clay suddenly surged forth.

They opened their blood-red maws and lunged toward the direction where Ye Bai was.

Meanwhile, Earth Day rode on the back of one of the giant-toothed Sharks and retreated rapidly in another direction.

At this moment, a Black Flame suddenly drilled out from the shadow of a giant-toothed Shark.

It spread the moment it touched the clay.

A pair of wings made of clay appeared on Earth Day's back, and he looked at the giant-toothed Shark, which was being baked into ceramic by the high heat, with great apprehension.

The giant-toothed Shark was scorched bright red by the intense fire, and large amounts of black smoke billowed from its entire body.

Although it wailed desperately, it was of no use.

In just a moment, the giant-toothed Shark was baked into countless fragments and vanished.

Earth Day could feel that the giant-toothed Shark's Soul had already been taken by the Black Flame.

"As expected, your clay fears high temperatures; under the scorching heat, clay is as fragile as glass."

"With just a light strike, it will shatter completely."

"And the Soul hidden within the clay will also be devoured by the fire of Hell."

"Earth Day, this is your weakness, isn't it?"

"Your strength is great, but once an item that can restrain you is found, your strength will be infinitely weakened."

Streaks of Black Flame emerged from the shadows, pouncing toward the clay giant-toothed Sharks while simultaneously attempting to surround Earth Day.

Earth Day revealed an extremely sullen and somewhat annoyed expression.

His layout had actually been seen through by someone.

Moreover, he was restrained by Ye Bai's Pet Beast, which caused Earth Day to harbor feelings of apprehension.

"Damn it!"

At this time, Earth Day appeared very angry.

His weak point had been exposed, and to prevent being captured by Ye Bai,

Earth Day landed directly on the ground, his body dissolving like soil.

Before leaving, he still threw out a few harsh words.

"Kuimulang, the next time we meet will be the day of your death."

"I will not let you have an easy time."

"You have ruined the Seven Stars' plan; we will not let you off."

Earth Day left behind a sentence and vanished without a trace.

At this time, Guijinyang and Jingmuhan walked over.

"Ye Bai, what happened here? Why is there so much clay?"

Ye Bai retracted the Hell Nether Wolf.

"I just encountered Earth Day and had a fight with him."

"Earth Day's strength is much greater than I imagined; he is skilled at manipulating clay to attack enemies."

"His real name is Han Zhuang; we can use this as a lead to continue our investigation."

"See if we can figure out the names of the other Seven Stars."

Ye Bai's words made Guijinyang and Jingmuhan frown.

They had not discovered any abnormalities and had only sensed intense fighting here, which is why they rushed over.

"We have been investigating for over a decade and have never discovered the true faces of the Seven Stars."

"Kuimulang, you only fought him once and managed to follow the vine to find Earth Day's true identity; not bad."

"However, we can be certain that the Seven Stars will definitely launch a surprise attack on the Young Qilin Cup and abduct the contestants."

"They must have colluded with the Spirit Saint and the Necromancer."

"The Seven Stars, the Resurrection Society, and the Gospel Society must have reached some unknown deal."

"Since we have discovered that the Seven Stars are in action, to prevent any accidents, should we call off this Young Qilin Cup?"

Guijinyang offered a suggestion.

"No, the Young Qilin Cup cannot be stopped; we must continue to hold it."

"Stopping it would lose face for Yan Country, and it hasn't reached the most difficult moment yet; with just the strength of the three of us, we can still stop the Seven Stars."

"What I am truly worried about is Tianzhong City."

"The blood-colored mist there has not dispersed for a long time, and it was once a stronghold for demons."

"I am worried that problems will arise there."

"I am even more afraid that a necromancer might be there, summoning dead Souls."
