Chapter 144: Corpse Lord, Undead Creatures!

"Hmm? Such a powerful spatial fluctuation!"

"Is that over at the Stone Beach on the border? How could such a terrifying spatial fluctuation occur there?!"

Within a military fortress on the border of the Da Jin, an old man with white hair wearing red armor.

Upon sensing the spatial fluctuation, his gaze tightened, and he opened his eyes to look into the distance.

This person was none other than Marshal Wei Long, stationed on the border of the Da Jin.

Marshal Wei Long called over a middle-aged man in black armor and gave him a few instructions.

The middle-aged man in black armor nodded, and his figure immediately vanished from the spot, flying toward the vicinity of the Stone Beach.

Such a powerful spatial fluctuation made even Marshal Wei Long want to go there himself.

However, due to his status, he could not easily leave the military fortress.

As a top-tier powerhouse of the Da Jin, if Marshal Wei Long were to head outside the border without authorization.

The Demon Race would also send out a powerhouse of equal standing, and at that point, it would likely invite some trouble.

At the same time, many Demon Hunters scattered near the Stone Beach also sensed the terrifying spatial fluctuation from just a moment ago.

One by one, they took to the air, flying rapidly to approach the direction where Luo Shuiyan and the others were located.

"Sister Shui Yan, did you know all along that a Secret Realm might appear here?"

Having followed Luo Shuiyan into the spatial rift, Lin Xue'er and the other two looked around and subconsciously asked Luo Shuiyan.

After all, for some time now, Luo Shuiyan's objective had been extremely clear.

Setting out from the Xi'an Ancient City to Shu City, then traveling all the way to Black Stone City before leaving the pass.

Arriving near this Stone Beach and waiting for several full days, they finally welcomed the opening of this Secret Realm.

If this wasn't known beforehand, calling it a coincidence would be far too far-fetched.

"Mm." This time, Luo Shuiyan did not deny it; she simply nodded faintly, though she did not offer the others an explanation.

Lin Xue'er and the other two looked at Luo Shuiyan at this moment, their eyes shining, their inner admiration impossible to put into words.

From just entering as freshmen, searching for the ruins of the Star Meteor Sect within the Tianque Academy Secret Realm.

In the eyes of the others, Luo Shuiyan had begun to grow increasingly mysterious.

Though they were all freshmen, it was clear that Luo Shuiyan was much more mature and composed than the rest of them.

Then later, signing up for the Hundred Schools League, ultimately leading the team to victory, and entering the Space-Time Secret Realm to explore the Time Eye.

And there was her understanding of various Ancient Restrictions and medicinal pills, which was completely inconsistent with Luo Shuiyan's age.

Each of these things highlighted Luo Shuiyan's uniqueness and extraordinary nature.

She was simply not someone that an ordinary young Beast Tamer could be compared to.

Not to mention knowing the secret of the Shu City City Lord Zhang Kai, or this Secret Realm.

The three felt that Luo Shuiyan was practically a know-it-all; it seemed there was nothing she did not know.

However, over the years, everyone had grown accustomed to these astonishing feats of Luo Shuiyan.

After a brief moment of surprise, they immediately began to study this mysterious space.

This Secret Realm was vast, covering an area of at least ten thousand miles, though it was somewhat desolate all around.

In the ancient era, there were not many beings capable of such a feat.

Generally speaking, after a Beast Tamer breaks through to the Saint level, they can carve out an independent space.

However, for an ordinary Saint-level powerhouse, wanting to carve out such a massive independent space is no simple difficulty; it would likely consume countless years.

And even a Saint-level powerhouse might not necessarily be able to endure it.

A massive Secret Realm space like this was highly likely left behind by some large ancient power.

"The Spiritual Qi here is so thin..."

Yi Zimeng frowned, sensing that something was slightly off, and the others nodded in succession.

The Secret Realms they had encountered before were all filled with abundant spiritual energy, far exceeding the outside world.

But this Secret Realm now seemed as if it had been drained dry previously.

Only now, relying on the newly born spatial rift, was it able to be replenished by the influx of Spiritual Qi from the outside world.

"Follow me, everyone."

Time was tight, and she did not know when the powerhouses from the outside would arrive. Luo Shuiyan did not look at the scenery along the way and led the others as they flew rapidly forward.

After about half an hour, the four of them had flown over a distance of a thousand miles.

"There are corpses!"

Just then, Hu Xiaoxiao suddenly exclaimed, breaking the silence.

Everyone followed the direction of Hu Xiaoxiao's finger and saw, scattered across the ground, more than a dozen corpses lying in disarray.

Moreover, the clothing on the corpses looked extremely ancient.

It was unknown how many ages they had existed for; they were so tattered they seemed as if they would dissipate with a single gust of wind.

"Let's go, don't stay here too long, be careful that these ancient people don't come back to life..."

Luo Shuiyan said calmly.

Regarding what happened inside this Secret Realm, although she did not know it very clearly, she had heard a little bit about it.

In her past life, it was said that in this Secret Realm, all the ancient corpses came back to life and turned into undead creatures!

"Come, come back to life?! That shouldn't be, right?!"

Upon hearing this, Hu Xiaoxiao immediately got goosebumps all over.

Although she had the Xiaotian Sect as her backing and was usually fearless,

when it came down to it, Hu Xiaoxiao was just a playful little girl after all.

Hearing these words from Luo Shuiyan, she couldn't help but feel deeply creeped out.

Hu Xiaoxiao hurriedly snatched Jiang Che from Yi Zimeng's arms and held him against her own body.

As long as Jiang Che was there, she felt very secure.

Jiang Che, who had just been lulled to sleep by the fragrant breeze and brainwave hypnosis not long ago, was also jolted awake by this sudden movement.

"What the hell?! Where have we run off to? What is a Corpse Puppet?!"

Having just woken up, Jiang Che subconsciously scanned the area with his Holographic Perspective while still dazed.

He discovered that those corpses on the ground actually had levels and information! They had been dead for so many years, yet they could still move?! There were actually real zombies?!

This made even Jiang Che feel a bit creeped out; he was no Daoist Priest Lin...

"Xiaobai... don't you go scaring me!"

Hu Xiaoxiao swallowed hard, hugging Jiang Che tightly and refusing to let go.

Crack! Crack! Just then, a series of sounds from moving bone joints suddenly rang out within the silent space.

This sound was incredibly piercing, and the four people including Luo Shuiyan in mid-air heard it very clearly.

Hu Xiaoxiao instantly broke out in goosebumps, and her pretty face turned deathly pale.

Jiang Che could even hear the little girl's upper and lower teeth chattering uncontrollably from nervousness.

Seeing this, Jiang Che couldn't help but want to laugh.

He hadn't expected that the daring Hu Xiaoxiao would also have such a disheveled moment.

Immediately following this, under the astonished gazes of everyone, those ancient corpses on the ground.

Accompanied by these sounds of moving joints, stood up one after another.

The scene was extremely horrifying and eerie.

Then Jiang Che saw that these ancient corpses which had stood up.

Had gray flames constantly emerging from their eyes, as if they were burning souls.

"This, how is this possible?! They actually really came back to life!"

Seeing this scene before her, Yi Zimeng's expression instantly turned grave, her eyes filled with astonishment.

Hearing Yi Zimeng's words, Hu Xiaoxiao was so frightened that she didn't dare to look down anymore.

She held Jiang Che directly in front of her face, burying her face tightly into Jiang Che's fur.

It seemed as if as long as she couldn't see it, nothing was happening...
