Chapter 33: The Change in Corpse Qi

  The car drove along the mountain road and continued to move forward.

  It wasn't until more than four hours later that Ouyang Xun finally arrived at her destination, and it was only when she saw the text message on her phone from Liu Yi Yang that she realized they had already left Bin Hai and crossed over into Hebei, reaching the borders of Shandong.

  "So far?"

  The car finally stopped beside a desolate mountain, and after getting off the car, Liu Yi Yang's eyebrows jumped slightly. This was a half-mountain valley that didn't have a village in front or a store behind, and it was unknown which one it was.

  "You think so, now you know how hard it is for me, don't waste words, hurry up and work, finish it today and we can still go back, if not done well today, the two of us will have to spend the night in the mountains. If you're not afraid of a zombie suddenly running out at midnight, then keep dawdling!"

  Ouyang Huan took out a small box from the trunk, took out a special canvas backpack and put it on her back, then took out a handbag and threw it directly to Liu Yi Yang.

  "Take out the insecticide water inside and spray it, can prevent all mosquito bites!"

  Ouyang Xun threw out these things, still holding a short-handled cane in his hand, and said a sentence to Liu Yiyang.

  This time Liu Yi Yang didn't dawdle and hastily opened the small box.

  The box is small, but there are many things inside, all of which are bottles and jars of various colors, each with a label attached, making it very warm and cozy.

  Looking at the contents of the box, Liu Yi Yang was slightly dazed again. Just looking at these things, one would think it's a little girl's favorite makeup box, and never imagine that it belongs to a terrifying female heavenly master.

  Heavenly Master, Zombie.

  Thinking of this, Liu Yi Yang didn't dare to slack off and hastily took out a spray labeled "驱虫" (insecticide) and sprayed it all over himself.

  This spray smells like it might be okay.

  "What can I do to help you?"

  After vomiting, Liu Yi Yang carefully raised his head and asked a sentence. He had already made up his mind to help Ouyang Xuan get rid of this zombie threat, but when he really arrived at the place, he couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

  "Right now it's past one in the afternoon, the hottest time of day. I reckon that corpse will change at night, which means this is its weakest moment. It must be hiding somewhere nearby. The divine mirror recognizes you as its master, and although it hasn't fully recovered yet, it still has an extremely strong sensitivity to impurities in the world. As its master, you should have inherited these abilities too. Concentrate your mind and help me find where there's any aura of impurity or where such an aura is coming from. That way, I can locate him and eliminate him!"

  Dazedly looking at Ouyang Huan, after a while Liu Yi Yang quietly asked: "What is the filthy air, what does it look like?"

  "The aura of filth, is simply filthy, it's an uncomfortable existence that makes people feel uneasy. I don't know what it looks like, it's something invisible. It's said that the inheritors of the divine mirror can see the tangible aura of filth, I wonder if you can see it!"

  Ouyang Xuan tilted her head and looked at Liu Yi Yang, who continued to say: "If you really saw it, tell me what it looks like. I'm also very curious about this thing!"

  When she said this, even she herself felt a bit strange. Normally, mentioning something related to the divine mirror would make her uncomfortable and not give Liu Yi Yang a good face, as the divine mirror used to belong to her.

  Today I didn't blow up and I wasn't angry in my heart either.

  "Let me see if I can find it!"

  Liu Yi Yang nodded slightly, and he thought of the last time at school when he absorbed the dark energy from the woman who fainted. The black energy was very uncomfortable when it entered his body, but he didn't know what connection it had with this filthy energy.

  Ouyang Xuan nodded slightly, didn't say a word, just quietly looked at Liu Yi Yang.

  Liu Yi Yang's spirit slowly concentrated, and the surrounding heaven and earth seemed to become brighter and clearer. At this time, the most scorching sun at noon seemed not so unbearable for Liu Yi Yang, but instead became much more comfortable.

  A gentle breeze, emerald green leaves, and the soft swaying of grass in the wind; everything in nature made Liu Yi Yang feel so wonderful that he almost became enchanted.

  It was still his first time discovering such a feeling in the depths of the mountains.

  Something beautiful is always being destroyed, and this time is no exception. Liu Yi Yang's eyebrow suddenly jumped slightly, and he found a faint black air in the northeast, shrouding the sky above.

  The black air was very light and could hardly be seen if one didn't look carefully, but it gave Liu Yi Yang a very uncomfortable feeling.

  As Liu Yi Yang noticed the black air, the black air that had been spreading in the sky suddenly gathered into a line and flew straight towards him, quickly drilling into his forehead, scaring Liu Yi Yang so much that he quickly retreated backwards, almost falling to the ground.

  "What's wrong? What did you find?"

  Ouyang Xun had been paying attention to him all along, and hastily rushed forward to pull him back, asking a hasty question.

  "Black, very faint, just above there!"

  Liu Yi Yang pointed to the northeast, his heart still racing violently. The black thread that had just drilled into his forehead made him feel a wave of nausea in his stomach.

  Fortunately, there were not many black lines, and after drilling in, they quickly disappeared, and that nauseating feeling was gone.

  But the sudden appearance of the black line still startled him, and just as he was about to speak out, Ouyang Huan had already jumped up and ran quickly towards the northeast.

  "So you were hiding over there! Don't think that just because I don't have the magic mirror, I won't be able to catch you. This time, see where you can run!"

  Ouyang Xun muttered to herself, already running over a hundred meters away, her speed even faster, startling Liu Yi Yang.

  "Wait for me, don't run so fast!"

  Liu Yi Yang hastily chased after him, he ran very fast too, but soon he was hit.

  He thought his speed was already the world's first, after all, it was much faster than the world record. But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't catch up with Ouyang Xuan, who always kept a distance from him.

  This also reminded him again that Ouyang Xun was a real female Tian Shi, and some of her methods were normal.

  The two of them ran very fast, fortunately this was an uninhabited mountain, if ordinary people saw it they would also be shocked. Liu Yi Yang sighed without thinking that his 100-meter speed had already broken seven seconds, a speed that in the secular world was also astonishing and shocking, he himself was no longer an ordinary person.

  "Look over there!" After running for a while, Ouyang Huan stopped and asked Liu Yi Yang again.

  Concentrating his mind, Liu Yiyang soon discovered that the faint black mist was just above their heads, but it was thickest on the mountain to the north, where it had already turned a dark cloud-like color.

  Without hesitation, Liu Yi Yang pointed towards the north.

  "Come with me!"

  Ouyang Xuan just threw down this sentence and ran forward. Now they are already in the mountains, surrounded by trees, and running is not as fast as before.

  "Get out of here!"

  Not long after they ran, Ouyang Xuan suddenly shouted in front of them, and then a sound like an animal's cry was heard, similar to the miserable howl of a dog whose tail had been stepped on.

  It wasn't until Liu Yi Yang ran over that he discovered, not far away, a wolf was running with a limp, and another wolf was beside it, both wolves were running quickly.

  Ouyang Huan just ran into two wolves, but unfortunately for them, they were the ones who got hurt.

  Not even afraid of wolves, and chasing them away like a small dog, Liu Yi Yang shrunk his neck, OuYang Xuan's ferocity was really frightening.

  Who would have thought that such a pretty and lovely girl, like a princess next door, actually has such incredible energy.

  After running for more than half an hour on the mountain, Ouyang Xun stopped and asked Liu Yi Yang the same question again.

  Let Liu Yi Yang take a look, where exactly is it hidden.

  The filthy aura that Ouyang Xun couldn't see or sense, Liu Yiyang could sense it. Now Ouyang Xun was using him as a mobile divine mirror.

  Liu Yi Yang's face changed slightly after a closer look.

  Just now he only saw a semi-transparent grayish-black fog in the northern sky, this time looking again, the semi-transparent has become non-transparent, and it's just above their heads not far away.

  But this black breath made Liu Yi Yang very uncomfortable, as if his throat was filled with sand, and he didn't want to stay here any longer.

  "There, thickest!"

  Enduring this discomfort, Liu Yi Yang pointed towards the northeast direction, Ouyang Xuan nodded and continued walking in that direction.

  "Wait a minute!" Ouyang Huan had just taken two steps when Liu Yi Yang called out to her.

  "Earlier, the aura on this side wasn't so thick, but now it's already overwhelming, is there some kind of change?"

  Liu Yi Yang spoke cautiously, he didn't understand any of this, all he could do was to speak out his own discovery and see if it would be helpful to Ouyang Xuan.

  Being helpful to Ouyang Xun is also equivalent to being helpful to him.

  This isn't a game, they're catching zombies. If Ou Yangjun fails to catch the zombie, both of them will be done for and become a pair of star-crossed lovers he never wanted.

  "Did you say the polluted air has gotten worse?"

  After hearing Liu Yi Yang's words, OuYang Xuan's face changed slightly, and she hastily pulled out a small compass from her canvas bag.

  "The yin energy has increased so much, how can this be? Could it be that he underwent premature corpse transformation? But that's not right either, the most toxic time for corpse transformation is during the sun's peak, it's fundamentally impossible to succeed!"

  Ouyang Huan's expression became somewhat solemn, she couldn't see the filthy aura, but she had a way to find out about the zombie's corpse aura. Previously, because the transformation was not yet complete, that person was still a half-human and half-ghost existence, so he couldn't discover it.

  Half-human and half-ghost, most of the consciousness has disappeared, but there are some human instincts left, blood is still flowing, heart is still beating, it's a living dead person, so there is still some vital energy left in the body.

  When the transformation is truly complete, this person will become a true corpse, a zombie. At that time, the yin energy will be dominant and can be discovered by her.

  Ouyang Huan is in a hurry to find Liu Yi Yang, wanting to take advantage of the time when Tian He cannot complete his transformation into a zombie. At this moment, he still has half human and half corpse aura, and has not yet become a powerful zombie, making it the easiest time to eliminate him.

  It seems that things have changed. With such a strong corpse aura, she can slowly find the location of the zombies even without Liu Yi Yang's reminder.

  Of course, no matter how sensitive the compass is, it can't compare with a divine artifact. Liu Yi Yang was still the fastest at finding zombies.
