Arrows pierced through the air!
Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!
However, the zombies were as solid as bronze and iron, it was no joke. Yinaqi (dark energy) arrows hit them, resonating with a clang of metal on metal, but they remained unscathed!
Leading the swarm, the flying zombies burst into a horrifying string of sounds from their throats, like a roar or furious howl. Although Huang Xiaolong couldn’t understand their language, one thing was clear – the wave of Yinaqi arrows had enraged them!
The next moment, the swarm retaliated!
A horde of zombies lunged straight towards Huang Xiaolong!
They flashed for an instant then darted towards him with a speed akin to phantoms. The whole thing looked like teleportation. Their speed was simply too high. The zombies from movies, hopping about, were no match to these zombies; they were pitifully weak in comparison.
Then, the zombies spat poison from their mouths and extended their long, sword-like claws towards Huang Xiaolong!
Needless to say, should anyone get stabbed by their claws, their body would tear apart as easily as paper.
Despite the supposed masters from the Eagle Claw Gate and world-ranked robbers that Huang Xiaolong had previously encountered, they would instantly meet a grisly end if faced with these zombies.
Huang Xiaolong moved swiftly, leaving only a shadow behind, narrowly escaping the attack of the zombie horde.
The lead flying zombie was even more ferocious. It attacked with remarkable speed, diving down onto Huang Xiaolong, its ten nails, poisonous and elongated. It was as if it was trying to crack open Huang Xiaolong’s skull and scoop out his brains.
Huang Xiaolong lifted his right palm, summoning a Qi-turned knife light that burst from his body, slice through the air!
Clang
The knife light clashed with the flying zombie’s claws, sparking a terrifying sound of metal collision, with sparks flying everywhere!
Thud thud thud
A small part of the flying zombie’s half a meter-long claws were chopped off, it howled in fury, seeming both enraged and cautious of Huang Xiaolong.
Huang Xiaolong retreated a few steps, reaching into his canvas bag and pulled out a large number of amulets, scattering them like a casting net!
Evil Suppressing Talismans!
As the saying goes, evil repelling talisman repel ghosts, evil suppressing talisman restrains zombies!
Talismans were glowing brightly as they stuck onto the flying zombie and the horde!
However…
Bang
The talismans exploded!
They couldn’t restrain the zombies!
Immediately after, under the command of the flying zombie, the horde surrounded Huang Xiaolong.
The flying zombie hovered in midair, preparing to launch an attack!
Song Yuru in the distance watched nervously, her heart leaping into her throat for Huang Xiaolong.
Huang Xiaolong turned to look at Song Yuru, even managing to make an “OK” gesture to her, which left her in bewildered tears and almost fainting.
“Damn it, when the tiger doesn’t show strength, you think I’m a sick cat! My woman is watching the match! Alright, time for serious business! No more playing!” Huang Xiaolong put on a wicked smile.
Next moment!
Huang Xiaolong bit his right index finger, splashing a drop of blood!
This drop of blood was incredibly extraordinary, it was actually golden!
In legends, the blood of ghosts and gods is golden. This is the so-called “Divine Blood”!
The Divine Blood hovered in the air, and Huang Xiaolong’s right index finger moved in the air, drawing symbols in the void!
The drop of blood seemed to defy gravity, suspended in the air. Huang Xiaolong used the blood to draw symbols, each stroke radiating blinding light like the sun.
As he drew the symbols, Huang Xiaolong rapidly chanted a spell —— “Heaven and Earth are mysterious and yellow, the light of the Sun and Moon. Five Elements in motion, fierce fires all around. Fire reddens heaven and earth, flash fire divine public. The true fire of heaven soars in flames. Five thunder fires, fierce flames….”
In an instant, a symbol was written in the air!
This symbol, drawn with Divine Blood, triggered a series of thunderous roars above, as if the entire heaven and earth began to vibrate!
Thus, an inexplicable deterrent force scared the flying undead and other undead into inaction!
They had a feeling, at this moment, as if they were grappling with the judgment of the heavens!
The next second!
“Fire Dragon Spell! Burn through the wilderness!!!!!”
Huang Xiaolong slapped the symbol, and instantly, a huge fire scorched the sky!
The symbol transformed into a three-meter-long fire dragon, its roar soaring into the sky, dominating the wild!
This fire dragon was vividly alive with a camel-like head, deer-like horns, rabbit-like eyes, cow-like ears, snake-like neck, clam-like belly, carp-like scales, eagle-like claws, and tiger-like paws. Its back had eighty-one scales, holding the number of nine nines which represents the sun. Its voice resembled the striking of a bronze dish. Bright pearls adorned its chin, and inverted scales lined it’s throat!
Boom
The fire dragon dove at the horde of zombies!
In an instant, all zombies, led by the flying undead, were burned to nothing, completely reduced to ashes, and ceased to exist!
Huang Xiaolong demonstrated his divine power, using a drop of Divine Blood to incinerate a group of zombies!
The dense Yin Qi, corpse Qi, resentment Qi, and Evil Qi in this area gradually evaporated.
The bright moonlight finally penetrated the dark clouds, shining down and casting a peaceful and serene glow over the night. The moonlight fell on tree branches, creating mottled shadows…
It was beautiful.
“Phew Done.” Huang Xiaolong chuckled, “It seems, zombies are hard to kill, but they’re not my match… It’s actually quite satisfying to kill them.”
At this point, Song Yuru had already run over from afar. “Little Long… are you okay?”
Just now, Song Yuru had witnessed Huang Xiaolong’s battle with the zombies. The variety of dazzling techniques had left her awestruck. It was as if she had just watched an elaborate Hollywood blockbuster, which made her completely admire Huang Xiaolong and have a deeper understanding of him. “Little Long… I feel like you’re invincible now.”
“Hahaha Big wife, just now you got it? I’m invincible from the start.” Huang Xiaolong said seriously.
Then he waved his hand, removed the amulets adhering to Song Yuru’s body, and put them back into his personal canvas bag.
“Big wife, there shouldn’t be any obstacles ahead, and the road is clear. Let’s move on to today’s main event —— raiding the Hu Family’s ancestral tomb!” Huang Xiaolong laughed, grabbed Song Yuru’s hand, crossed the creek, and walked forward.
“On the other hand, if it weren’t for me, the Hu Family ancestral tomb would be safe and sound, no one could disturb it.” Huang Xiaolong laughed. “After all, the flying undead and other undead are guarding the Hu Family’s tomb.”
“Little Long, I feel like the people of the Hu Family are really powerful.” Song Yuru commented. “Those zombies are many times more powerful than those in movies, but they’re used by the Hu Family… Little Long, Hu Family must really have a master.”
“About that…” Huang Xiaolong pondered a bit. “The Hu Family doesn’t have any masters, there’s a master behind them. This undead feeding ground formed naturally, it’s unrelated to the Hu Family, however, these zombies were likely transported here by someone powerful to guard the Hu Family’s tomb…”
While they were talking, they walked past a hill, and sure enough, they saw a large cemetery ahead!
