Sword Sovereign of the Celestial Emperor-Chapter 180, Yellow-Haired Zombie

At the same time, a fierce and bloody aura assaulted their senses. This time, the zombie that appeared was clearly different from the ones before.

Its eyes had turned purple, and beneath its dark blue skin, a faint layer of purple light swirled. Its nails were more than double the length of an ordinary zombie’s, and yellow hair sprouted like spikes from hidden spots on its body.

This was a Yellow Hair Zombie, much more formidable than an ordinary one. Chu Ming and the others hadn’t even had time to breathe a sigh of relief when twenty massive black shadows surrounded them immediately, all Yellow Hair Zombies as well.

"Be careful, everyone!"

Chu Ming frowned slightly and spoke in a calm tone. One Yellow Hair Zombie might not pose any danger to them, but when something accumulates to a terrifying degree, it can trigger qualitative changes. With so many Yellow Hair Zombies, even they had to handle this carefully.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The moment these Yellow Hair Zombies appeared, they pounced towards Chu Ming and the others. Since entering the iron gate, it seemed as if a barrier shielded them from the water, making the ruins completely dry. As soon as Chu Ming and the others made a move, the surrounding air was immediately compressed and exploded violently.

Whoosh!

Chu Ming unsheathed his sword, a dazzling blade light breaking through the turbulent air. In an instant, this space was filled with countless sword shadows, enveloping the Yellow Hair Zombies completely.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The sound of metal clashing echoed sporadically. The Yellow Hair Zombies’ defenses were terrifyingly strong. Chu Ming’s sword struck them, sparking countless fire fragments like a rain of fire, only leaving shallow white marks.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Two Yellow Hair Zombies pierced through the layers of sword shadows, clawing at Chu Ming’s chest with sharp nails that emitted a purple glow, ripping through the air in their wake.

Boom!

Chu Ming lightly tapped his toes, his body turning into a stream of concentrated wind, appearing almost instantly ten meters away. Leaping into the air, he swung his Blue Red Sword thrice, unleashing three beams of blinding white light. The surrounding air evaporated, and a powerful Sword Force roared.

"Three Talents Swordsmanship!"

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Although the Three Talents Swordsmanship was merely a Yellow Level Top Tier swordsmanship, Chu Ming, having comprehended Slaughter Sword Intent, wielded it with power equal to a Low Tier Profound Level swordsmanship.

The two Yellow Hair Zombies that tried to claw at Chu Ming were instantly sliced into two by his Sword Light, dead beyond a doubt.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

At this moment, the other three also attacked, swiftly killing the remaining Yellow Hair Zombies. Their bodies fell to the ground, lifeless.

Without resting, the four continued forward. As they progressed further, the tunnel began to show sparse patches of grass and vegetation, but it was still quite sparse.

"The Spiritual Source Fruit was obtained just up ahead!"

Speaking softly, Fox Yan Gongzi said. Sure enough, they soon spotted a Spiritual Source Tree with long branches extending outward. The spiritual power in the area was much more concentrated, but the tree was bare except for leaves. Clearly, the four Spiritual Source Fruits had been completely picked by Fox Yan Gongzi and his companion.

"Last time, we only came this far. Who knows what threats lie ahead!"

Zi Yan said gravely, his eyes fixed on the tunnel’s end. Even though the Luminous Pearls gave off a faint glow, it was still pitch black, like a giant beast’s mouth ready to devour the surrounding space.

Whoosh!

At that moment, several more Yellow Hair Zombies emerged from all sides, baring fangs as they pounced towards Chu Ming and the others. Their sharp nails sliced through the air, causing continuous cracking sounds.

Boom!

Chu Ming casually threw a punch, yellow light like a dragon, furious Fist Force filling the area. In this space filled with fist shadows, the Yellow Hair Zombies were turned to dust before they could even touch Chu Ming.

...

Whoosh!

A figure in blue appeared at the edge of the water pool. As the breeze blew, his hair fluttered, revealing the handsome face of Bing Bufan.

"This should be the place!"

Bing Bufan took out the map from his sleeve again, comparing it three or four times before he was roughly certain.

"There’s no trace of any aura leaking out, likely because an array is completely concealing it!"

Born in the royal family, Bing Bufan was naturally familiar with arrays. In the Imperial Palace, there was constantly a Fourth Level array operating to defend against external enemies, representing the royal family’s heritage.

Whoosh!

After consuming a Water-Resistant Pill, Bing Bufan leaped into the water pool, his body slowly descending. As it made contact with the water, ice shards floated around, though not significantly affecting his descent.

After the time of one incense stick, a massive shadow suddenly appeared beneath him. Countless Water Swords surged upwards, waves of water crashing as they shot from below, their tips gleaming brilliantly.

"Hmph!"

A trace of blue flashed in Bing Bufan’s eyes as he gently opened his hand. Within ten meters around him, the water rapidly froze, encasing him. The Water Swords crashed into the frozen surface, producing deafening booms.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Crack! Crack! Crack!

Cracks appeared on the frozen surface, slowly widening until it shattered completely. Within the water, the Water Swords continued shooting endlessly, as if they were inexhaustible.

"Purple Electric Eel?"

Bing Bufan’s sharp eyes saw through the layers of water clearly, identifying the massive shadow. With a thought, a blue Ice Arrow formed in his hand.

"Ice Heart Arrow!"

Though bowless, the arrow exuded extreme might. Around him, countless water vortices appeared, their powerful pull completely destroying small creatures around them.

Whoosh!

A blue shadow flashed, forming an illusion. The blue arrow shattered the surging waves, heading straight for the Purple Electric Eel. Along its path, water droplets turned into ice blocks.

The Purple Electric Eel spat out an electric net, crackling in the water, attempting to block Bing Bufan’s arrow. But the arrow, as if guided by a deity, passed through the net effortlessly.

Boom!

Crack! Crack! Crack!

The blue arrow struck the Purple Electric Eel, and with a massive boom, countless blood mists erupted. A quarter of its body turned into a cloud of blood mist, miserably torn apart. Yet, it wasn’t over—immersed in unending cold, the blue arrow froze the Purple Electric Eel completely into a massive ice block.

Boom!

In an instant, the ice shattered, erasing the Purple Electric Eel entirely, leaving not even a corpse behind.
