Chapter 29: The Immortal Soldier Points the Way

  The soldiers guarding Bai Qi were all dull and stupid, seemingly unaware that the monk had already passed through their defense line and approached Bai Qi's side.

  Xiao Yu was just about to get up when she saw the monk, but she was stared at by the monk's eyes. Xiao Yu felt numbness in her hands and feet, unable to move even a little bit. The spells she knew were not many, and they couldn't be used effectively inside the Wang Mausoleum either. If only she could use martial arts, she wouldn't be so desperate.

  The monk's mouth twitched, and he raised the Blood Pattern Sickle. Bai Qi's mind stirred, and four symbol soldiers swiftly pounced on him. The Blood Pattern Sickle in the monk's hand stiffly chopped down four times. These four chops all landed on the necks of the symbol soldiers, this thin seam being the weakest part of their armor, with only one layer.

  Four armored warriors were beheaded by a single sword, transformed into paper men, their triple-layered iron armor rendered useless, clattering to the ground.

  The red-robed monk stepped over four piles of iron armor and walked towards Bai Qi. Bai Qi twisted his waist and drew out his spear. On the tip of the divine spear, a cyan light burst forth.

  That red-robed monk's body emitted an aura of death, his eyes bursting with gray pupils that swept around, the people around him were petrified and couldn't move a single step. Only Bai Qi was unaffected, and on his Lianquan Divine Gun, a ferocious dragon head appeared.

  A dull thud, the Blood Patterned Sickle sliced into the body of the red-robed monk, but the tip of the gun had already pierced through his chest. The tip of the gun produced an irresistible suction force, and a hole appeared at the rear end of the gun, from which the blood in the monk's body was instantly sucked out, shooting out more than ten feet behind Bai Qi.

  Bai Qi was taken aback, this monk was ferocious, Xiao Yu was subdued, he thought it would be a fierce battle, but unexpectedly, he solved the tall monk with just one shot. At this time, Xiao Yu jumped up from the ground, his feet softened, and he fell down again, hastily saying: "Be careful behind!"

  Bai Qi drew his sword and turned around, only to see the blood spouting from his own gun splashing onto several monks behind him. The faces of those monks instantly turned gray, their eyes also becoming a dull gray color.

  What kind of toxin is this, spreading so fast!

  Bai Qi saw Luo standing beside him, Tian Mo had already withdrawn, and there was a streak of blood on his face.

  "Good luck!"

  Luo looked at Bai Qi and sighed, "I didn't expect to find a corpse puppet here. One moment of carelessness and the thousand-year-old fruit position will disappear. Master Bai, please cremate me. If there are any relics, they're yours. And please return the Tianmo Mirror to Honglian Temple."

  Nalo finished speaking and didn't care about Bai Qi's reaction. His nine-ring tin stick smashed down on his own bald head, instantly bursting with brain matter.

  "Little Rain, what's going on!" Bai Qi stood in front of Little Rain with his spear at the ready. Little Rain was still completely paralyzed and unable to move. Bai Qi was getting anxious, why hadn't Ah Niang arrived yet?!

  "The corpse puppet is nothing, but the one who controls it is at least a returned void-level old zombie. The thing that was just dismembered is a corpse puppet, extremely contagious. Little White Brother, this time, we have to rely on you." Xiao Yu lay limp on the ground, without a hint of fear in his expression, as if Bai Qi could really be relied upon, even though he was only a beginner cultivator at the initial stage of refining his energy.

  Luo Jiang was about to kill himself, and the remaining seven monks had all transformed into corpse puppets. Bai Qi's spear tip drooped, maintaining a slight tremble, and he didn't have the heart to put away the Heaven Demon Mirror. Those seven monks were extremely ferocious, and if he got caught and injured, he would likely suffer the same fate. Luo Jiang was already someone who had achieved the rank of Arhat, but because he accidentally got hurt by a corpse puppet, the corpse poison entered his body, and he was done for. Bai Qi didn't think he could escape either.

  But Xiaoyu's words calmed him down. Xiaoyu could only rely on herself now, what else was there to say? She would just have to risk everything and give it her all.

  The worst thing is not these, but outside the main hall, there are a large number of zombies gathering. Bai Qi now has only one person left, and Xiao Yu still needs his protection.

  Two red-robed monks rushed up, their knives dancing in the air as they charged straight for Bai Qi's neck. Bai Qi didn't even flinch, and his gun directly pierced one of the monk's hearts. This time he remembered to turn the barrel sideways, so that the blood wouldn't splatter onto Xiao Yu's body.

  At the same time, he threw out a Zi Xuan Shen Lei. The treasure flew out and transformed into a purple lightning bolt that struck another monk's chest, instantly exploding. The monk's body was instantly halved, with the lower half being blasted to charcoal by the Zi Xuan Shen Lei.

  Xiao Yu panted behind him: "Little White Brother, save the Zi Xuan Divine Thunder for dealing with powerful zombies!"

  His face turned red, he didn't know the power of Purple Thunder was so strong. This corpse puppet had just been formed and its combat strength wasn't great. Rainstorm Bell only gave him six Purple Thunders, this thing was hard to come by, at least on the Central Plains Continent, not many alchemists were willing to sell it.

  One was used up, and five were left. In this mausoleum, there might be over a hundred powerful zombies.

  No time for regret, the remaining five red-robed monks closed in. Bai Qi charged forward two steps, his long spear transforming into two dragon-like creatures that directly shattered the skulls of two monks.

  Xiaoyu saw clearly behind him, Baiqi's current strength seemed to be many times stronger than before entering the tomb. Baiqi himself didn't feel it, but Xiaoyu was shocked. The Qing Lei True Solution was indeed that powerful?

  Bai Qi himself didn't know, his body began to transform into a demon fairy's physique. In terms of cultivation, the tempering of his flesh was the most terrifying. As soon as he opened up the first demon fairy meridian, Bai Qi's power increased by almost seven or eight times. With just one casual spear thrust, he shattered the corpse puppet's skull.

  With a clang, the Blood Patterned Seal Knife was knocked flying, and in mid-air it had already made a shattering sound. Bai Qi took another step forward, spitting out two Moon Wheel Sword Pellets from his mouth. The Moon Wheel Sword Pellets circled around the necks of the two corpse puppets half a circle before cutting off their glowing heads.

  When the last corpse puppet rushed to the front, it spat out a cluster of gray **, wanting to attack with venom. Bai Qi's Li Quan Divine Spear stabbed at this cluster of gray **, and the ** was absorbed by the Li Quan Divine Spear, Bai Qi casually flicked the spearhead, picked up the corpse puppet, and threw it away.

  "How are you?" Bai Qi heard the sound of zombies crashing outside the door. In this grand hall, except for him and Xiao Yu, there was no one else alive.

  "I'm paralyzed, Xiao Bai Ge, you'd better go first." Xiaoyu panted, she didn't know what poison she had been poisoned with, but her whole body was numb and couldn't move. If Bai Qi took her with him, there would be no way to survive either.

  "Who cares about you, you're dead! Who will serve me?" White Qi was furious. He bent down and untied a set of iron armor from the scattered bodies of the soldiers, put it on Xiaoyu's body, then took out two sets of silk laces to tie the armor behind Xiaoyu's back, and finally made a diagonal cross on his chest.

  Bai Qi had already inhaled some corpse poison, but his body was unaffected. He knew it might be due to the Reverse Scale Spear. The Reverse Scale Spear, which used to be a celestial soldier, might be the key to his escape from the tomb.

  Luo Jiang's Tianmo Mirror was swallowed into the demon space by Bai Qi. Luo Jiang's corpse, he stored in the Na Ring. The remaining monks left eight blood-stained ring knives, and Luo Jiang left a nine-ring tin stick. These were at least low-grade magical instruments, and Bai Qi felt a little regretful at this time for damaging two of the ring knives.

  It's not the time for regret, Bai Qi took out four paper men again and summoned the symbol soldiers. After letting the symbol soldiers put on a layer of armor at will, Bai Qi also equipped them with a blood-stained dagger, then commanded the four symbol soldiers to open the gate of the main hall and kill their way out.

  As soon as he left the grand hall, Bai Qi was surrounded by dozens of zombies. These zombies were not as terrifying as the one he saw for the first time. Bai Qi controlled the symbol soldiers and zombies to slash at each other. The blood-patterned dagger was extremely sharp, and when it slashed at the zombies' bodies, they were basically cut into two segments.

  Bai Qi's feet felt heavy, his back carrying a small rain, his movements somewhat lacking in agility. In the blink of an eye, he broke out of the encirclement, four Si soldiers were lost, and Bai Qi didn't even have time to retrieve his blood-stained dagger. He saw a tall and imposing zombie in the distance, its entire body covered in rusty armor, walking towards him.

  That zombie was surrounded by hundreds of zombies, all wearing armor and holding the long-handled spears of a previous dynasty.

  Bai Qi did not dare to accept the battle, and the clothes on the zombie's body just now were very luxurious, but they were also a kind of servant. The zombies that rushed over might be generals. If he was careless, Xiaoyu would be attacked by the waves and die.

  Seeing the zombies blocking his way back, Bai Qi steeled himself and turned around to rush back into the grand hall, passing through the hall from behind and escaping deep into the mausoleum. He didn't know what his current strength was, but he knew that the energy in his body couldn't be exhausted. Without magic, it wasn't a problem for him as long as he had the Lingquan Divine Gun in hand, he could keep fighting on.

  Bai Qi didn't know that this demon fairy's body needed a long time of fighting to stabilize, and let the body adapt. If he wasn't in any danger now, just meditating and spitting out every day, this demon fairy's body would degenerate.

  What's more important is that Bai Qi is now calm and his fear is gradually disappearing. It turned out that he was afraid of those zombie bodies being hard, making it difficult for swords to hurt them, but now the Leiyin Divine Spear can create a hole with just one stab, and no zombie can withstand it, giving Bai Qi confidence in surviving.

  Xiao Yu said softly behind Bai Qi's back, "Little White Brother, you can't bear to part with me when I die."

  "Uh-huh."

  "If I can get out of here alive this time..."

  "Uh-huh." Bai Qi responded casually, his eyes gazing deeper into the mausoleum. The Inverse Scale Spear within him rotated again, turning half a circle before stopping, its tip trembling slightly as it pointed towards the front right.

  Bai Qi didn't hesitate and charged directly in the direction that the Inverse Scale Spear was pointing. There was a wide corridor there, and inside the corridor, more than ten zombies were swaying as they walked out.

  The Inverse Scale Spear felt that Bai Qi had chosen this direction, and the trembling became even more intense. The scales on the spear body all opened up, and Bai Qi even felt a kind of crazy hunger. This demon emperor's immortal soldier was actually hungry?
