Chapter 506: Mount Beimang
Ye Bai, this good buddy of his, had long known his own attack power was not strong, so he had borrowed the Clones of the Nether Hell Wolf and the Sun Flower Fairy early on.
It was precisely to confront the evil spirits in the high-rise building.
This guy called Qin Tiezhu should know quite a few secrets about the Shuangzi Ta.
The Holy Light shining from the Sun Flower Fairy was full of lethality.
All dark-natured creatures struck by the Sun Flower Fairy had a large amount of black light radiating from their bodies.
Their bodies all began to burn fiercely.
In just a moment's time, quite a few zombies were evaporated into black ash.
After Qin Tiezhu was struck by the Holy Light, his massive body instantly fell apart, revealing a thin, monkey-faced person.
"Ten Seal Dharma."
Lan Fa took out a Seal Talisman and directly sealed Qin Tiezhu.
"Isn't the evidence of the crime here now?"
"Just strike directly at the heart of the matter!!!"
"It's just that I don't know if more intelligence has been collected on the other side."
The coordination between Zhang Yuelu and Lady Bat was actually quite good.
They did not choose to enter from the first floor, but instead chose to go directly to the top floor of the Shuangzi Ta.
It was unusually quiet here, with only two Golden Silk Nanmu Coffins placed in the center of the hall.
"Zhang Yuelu, your Invisibility Gu is very good."
Lady Bat said with a grin.
It was her first time coming into contact with such a novel thing.
"There are many kinds of Gu."
"And they also have many different uses."
"To be honest, raising Gu is the same as cultivating Pet Beasts."
"As a Gu master, a Gu will not betray its owner."
"Go, Seal Gu."
Zhang Yuelu threw out the Seal Gu.
The Seal Gu stuck tightly to the Golden Silk Nanmu Coffin.
Transparent insect silk radiated from the mouth of the Seal Gu, seemingly wanting to seal the entire Golden Silk Nanmu Coffin.
Just at this moment, Dong Dafu and Yang Guofeng seemed to be awakened from the coffins.
The Golden Silk Nanmu Coffin shook violently.
Before the insect silk could completely seal the Golden Silk Nanmu Coffin, Yang Guofeng smashed the Golden Silk Nanmu Coffin and broke the seal of the Seal Gu.
A giant zombie with a very imposing appearance and a height of two meters appeared.
"Lao Yang, hurry and come save me."
Dong Dafu's voice came from the Golden Silk Nanmu Coffin nearby.
Yang Guofeng was speechless: "Can't you just come out by breaking your coffin directly?"
"Wuwuwu, this is a Golden Silk Nanmu Coffin that has accompanied me for a thousand years; you might be willing to part with it, but I really am not."
Yang Guofeng was even more exasperated: "If you aren't willing to part with it, then if I smash it, won't you fight me to the death?"
The muscles of his body began to undergo Expansion.
What made both Zhang Yuelu and Lady Bat feel somewhat surprised was that they both heard the sound of a heartbeat suddenly coming from inside Yang Guofeng's body.
"What the hell is this?"
Lady Bat felt her brain was not quite enough to process this.
"This zombie should be a specially modified zombie; there should be mercury blood inside, and it is loaded with artificial mechanical devices."
"There are at least four artificial hearts inside the body."
Zhang Yuelu said very calmly; as the sect leader of the Five Poisons Sect, Lan Fenghuang herself was a Doctor of mechanical engineering.
"Wing Chun, Rocket Punch."
One could see one of Yang Guofeng's arms, just like a Gangdamu Jishiren, flying out directly.
The arm slammed heavily into the Golden Silk Nanmu Coffin.
However, this coffin suddenly disappeared into thin air.
"What a pity; originally, you were fully capable of saving it."
"In the time it took you to speak, I have already completed the seal."
"Now I am going to seal you completely, and then my evidence-gathering work will be finished."
"I want to know how much the missing population of Zhong Nan Shi has to do with you."
Zhang Yuelu said with a smile.
"You mean those meat-foods?"
"I admit it, we did it all."
"Those with stronger strength were made into zombies by us, and those with weaker strength were turned into dust."
Yang Guofeng loosened the muscles and bones of his body and said dismissively.
"Then, were the people who went missing during the process of migrating out of Zhong Nan Shi also done by you?"
Zhang Yuelu continued to ask without changing her expression.
"Yeah, do you know how we did it?"
"We specifically selected a stretch of hidden highway and arranged quite a few zombies there; once prey passed by, we would drag them away along with their vehicles."
"We will sink the car directly into the river, and the people will be treated as blood-food."
"I know you are gathering evidence, but why wouldn't I stop you?"
"Do you know why?"
"Because in my eyes, you are already my companions; dead people will not betray me."
Yang Guofeng raised his sandbag-sized fist and swung it again.
"Interesting, a mere seventh-rank zombie dares to be so arrogant with me."
"It seems that since I, Zhang Yuelu, haven't patrolled the Southwest for so long, quite a few people have forgotten my great reputation."
Zhang Yuelu said with a beaming smile.
"Zhang Yuelu? Zhang Yuelu of the Twenty-Eight Mansions."
"How could you appear here? In our intelligence, there is no mention of your name at all. Where exactly did it go wrong?"
Yang Guofeng felt a bit puzzled, but as long as he killed the other party, the secret would not be passed on.
"It seems I can only kill you and then turn you into a zombie."
"Wing Chun, Double-Fist Strike."
Yang Guofeng swung both arms, and the arms flew out from Yang Guofeng's hands like rocket launchers.
He aimed at Zhang Yuelu and Lady Bat, one for each.
"There is Highly Toxic material inside my fists."
"They will explode immediately upon approaching the target. These two won't be my match; I have a chance of winning."
Yang Guofeng was actually quite calm; since the enemies had already fought their way here, it was useless for him to run.
Running away might even result in his body being devoured by Mao Shiba and becoming a part of him.
The title of Corpse Ancestor for Mao Shiba was not just for show.
The fists exploded quickly, and clusters of thick black smoke emerged.
"Haha, these thick fumes contain Highly Toxic substances; even if you are of the Twenty-Eight Mansions, you cannot resist this poison."
Yang Guofeng laughed out loud.
It was just that the voice sounded a bit shrill.
"A mere bit of minor poison, why are you spouting such nonsense here? It is precisely because I can't kill you."
A large amount of Poison Mist vanished instantly, and it was only then that Yang Guofeng noticed a mouth had appeared on Zhang Yuelu's palm.
The black energy was being continuously sucked into the mouth.
In the end, it even let out a satisfied burp.
This made Yang Guofeng furious.
His hands grew back instantly.
"Wing Chun, Second Life, Twin Dragons Emerging from the Sea."
He flung his arms out again, pouncing toward Zhang Yuelu like two ferocious venomous snakes.
However, in mid-air, one of the arms suddenly turned and smashed toward Lady Bat.
Lady Bat was holding a mirror and applying lipstick at the time; she snapped her fingers lightly and left her spot directly.
"Don't bother using such petty tricks; the probing should be over, just bring it on."
Zhang Yuelu beckoned to Yang Guofeng.
"Fine, I will let you witness my power."
"Million Flying Fists."
Yang Guofeng took a deep breath, his muscles underwent complete Expansion, and he swung his fists at a speed of one hundred per second.
Countless fist shadows bloomed in mid-air.
Zhang Yuelu took out the Seal Gu, while Lady Bat walked leisurely amidst the fist wind.
"Is that all the skill you have? You really are worthy of being a watchdog."
Zhang Yuelu said with great disdain.
"I actually held you in high regard initially."
"As it turns out, your skills really don't pique my interest."
"Seal Gu."
A Gu insect suddenly appeared between Yang Guofeng's eyebrows, and countless threads sprayed out from the insect's mouth.
Enveloping Yang Guofeng completely, before being sealed, Yang Guofeng felt that Dong Dafu was the truly clever one.
He himself was simply a fool; likewise being sealed, Dong Dafu's Golden Silk Nanmu Coffin was still intact.
While his own coffin had been destroyed.
He felt regret.
Lady Bat held two cyan-white stones; these were Moon Essence Stones.
Such stones could absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and absorb moonlight when placed in high locations.
Yet the Mao Family used them to absorb baleful energy, which was simply a waste of precious materials.
"These Moon Essence Stones have already been ruined by corpse energy and baleful energy; it is a pity for this material."
"Ye Bai should be getting impatient, let's go."
Lady Bat snapped her fingers, and they instantly returned to the original open space.
"You're back?"
Ye Bai said with a beaming smile.
The strongest people in the entire building were Dong Dafu and Yang Guofeng.
The other zombies are simply not worth fearing.
"Sigh, the problems of the Mao Family are very serious; they are too numerous to record."
"Now that we have found quite a bit of incriminating evidence, we can pass judgment once we enter Corpse City."
"Paper Man Nan, since your true body is following us anyway, why not just tell me the address of Corpse City?"
Ye Bai asked without any courtesy.
A sigh came from the paper figure in Ye Bai's hand.
"How did you see through my disguise?"
"I clearly didn't reveal a single flaw."
Paper Man Nan felt very strange.
"What of it? I have been with paper puppets for so long that I can naturally distinguish between your true and false forms."
"You also intentionally guided us here; it is nothing more than wanting to see how our strength measures up, right?"
"Then, having seen their strength, are you reassured now?"
Paper Man Nan remained in the appearance of a paper figure.
"This old one can cooperate with you, but there is one thing you must promise me."
"The Paper Maker Lineage must leave Corpse City safely."
"At that time, find us a place where we can live and work in peace."
"I can give you a top-secret piece of intelligence."
Paper Man Nan's gaze lingered on Zhang Tian'an for a moment.
Ye Bai quickly noticed the anomaly.
"You don't need to say it; we already know."
"We are here precisely under orders, otherwise why would Zhang Tian'an be in my team?"
"The former Kuimulang and Heart Moon Fox are both in Corpse City, right?"
Ye Bai asked Paper Man Nan.
"How did you know?"
Paper Man Nan revealed an expression of surprise.
Such top-secret intelligence—how did Kuimulang know?
"You don't need to worry about how I know; I already know that top-secret intelligence from just now. What other intelligence do you have that you can use for an exchange?"
Ye Bai said with a smile, looking exactly like a little fox.
"This."
Paper Man Nan certainly had a lot of intelligence, but much of it was not fit to see the light of day.
If it were spoken aloud, it would also bring trouble upon itself.
"Fine, you lead us to Corpse City first."
Just then, Paper Man Nan gritted its teeth: "Wait, I have one more important piece of intelligence."
"In exchange, the Paper Maker Lineage needs to receive your protection."
Ye Bai nodded.
"Tell me the content first; if it is indeed as you say, I will agree to it."
Paper Man Nan finally revealed another piece of intelligence: "The Exotic Beast zombies want to rebel against Mao Shiba; the leader of the Exotic Beast zombies wants to join the war of the Sea God Abyss."
The Myriad-Changing Butterfly flapped its wings, gnawing on a large bone in its mouth, eating with great relish.
Ever since this fellow evolved, it has been somewhat indiscriminate about what it eats; as long as it is delicious, it will take a bite.
The Nether Hell Wolf burrowed back into Ye Bai's shadow.
"Exotic Beast zombies, what are those?"
Ye Bai was quite curious.
"Exotic Beast zombies are zombies refined through technological means combined with the corpses of Exotic Beasts and the spells of the Celestial Master Dao."
"They are the elite troops under Mao Shiba."
"They can also be considered Mao Shiba's imperial guards."
"The fact that they all want to rebel shows that Mao Shiba's luck has run out."
Paper Man Nan said with immense emotion.
"Whether Mao Shiba's luck has run out or not, I don't know."
"But can the Exotic Beast zombies really be trusted?"
"Could it be that Mao Shiba wants to use the mouths of the Exotic Beast zombies to test exactly how many zombies want to rebel?"
"I reckon the intelligence that you are lurking in Corpse City has long been known to Mao Shiba."
"They have long known that you have defected."
"So if you want the Paper Maker Lineage to continue to survive, don't beat around the bush; take us to Corpse City as soon as possible."
"Otherwise, the furious Mao Shiba will slaughter your entire Paper Maker Lineage."
Ye Bai's words were not without reason.
Paper Man Nan shook its head: "You don't need to sow discord; I will not be the one to stick my neck out."
"Although I was created and became the Ancestor of the Paper Maker Lineage, I am not their servant."
"Having looked after the Paper Maker Lineage for a thousand years, I have already done my utmost."
"Whether they live or die actually has no great relation to me anymore."
Paper Man Nan did not want to be instigated by Ye Bai to personally go up against that old schemer Mao Shiba.
"Alright," Ye Bai said with a look of regret.
If Paper Man Nan could take action, Ye Bai would be able to relax much more.
"Let us head to Corpse City instead."
"Paper Man Nan, where exactly is Corpse City?"
Ye Bai asked.
"Corpse City is actually located in the Bei Mang Mountain Range."
"That place is a notoriously chaotic burial pit, and many Emperors were also buried there."
"The corpse Qi soars to the heavens, which is why Mao Shiba chose that place to become Corpse City."
"Having been managed by Mao Shiba for a long time, it has become as secure as an iron bucket."
"He also stationed an elite zombie troop at the foot of Beimang Mountain."
"This troop is an elite force built by Mao Shiba; he once said that even if the Pillar of the State were to arrive, they would be unable to break through the defense of that zombie troop."
"This is the first obstacle you will face when entering Corpse City."
"As for the second obstacle, that is the special environment of Beimang Mountain."
"It is a world where the living are forbidden to step, and only the dead can survive."
"Do not think that by sticking on a Yin Sha Talisman, you can disguise yourselves as zombies and enter that place."
"Do not even think about it."
"Because the Yin Sha energy will drill directly into your bone marrow."
