"Are you sure it's a Corpse Nurturing Land?"
Of course, Du Feng believed in Zhuang Puisi's loyalty, but he was afraid that he was wrong. After all, if someone wanted to enter the Corpse Nurturing Land, no one would come to this hill. Even if someone came, they wouldn't have the time to set up a Corpse Nurturing Land. There was a time limit to the Feather Flying Mystic Realm trial. Who would look like they had nothing better to do and set up a Corpse Nurturing Land instead of treasure hunting?
One had to know that the Feather Flying Mystic Realm could only be entered by martial artists who were half a step into the Ascendant Transformation Realm. Even if the Corpse Nurturing Land was set up, it would be a waste of effort if the Cultivation changed in the future.
"I'm sure. It's just up ahead."
The further they walked, the more obvious the feeling became. Zhuang Puisi was sure that this was the Corpse Nurturing Land. Since it was a Corpse Nurturing Land, there was a high chance that there were zombies. Zombies that could survive on this hill were definitely not simple. At the very least, they had to be able to deal with a large group of level nine demonic beasts to survive.
Inferring from this standard, the zombies in the Corpse Nurturing Land were likely at the level of level ten demonic beasts. Du Feng might be able to deal with the Falcon, which was a level ten demonic beast. However, if he encountered a level ten zombie, he didn't want to face it yet.
Because zombies had the same size as humans, and their bodies were invulnerable. They could bite, claw, and kick. High-level zombies could even use some moves of human martial artists. Although they couldn't use Quintessential Aether and couldn't use combat skills, their moves were powerful and had fewer restrictions than demonic beasts.
Besides, Du Feng didn't believe that he could use the Devil State to get out of danger every time. If he was unlucky and lost his life, it wouldn't be worth it.
"You lead the way. We'll go around it."
Since Zhuang Puisi could sense the specific location of the Corpse Nurturing Land, he should know how to avoid the zombies. Therefore, Du Feng let him lead the way and decided to go around the unknown zombie. This thing was definitely cultivated by someone. He didn't know the specific purpose, nor was he in the mood to find out.
"Yes, Master."
Whatever Du Feng said, Zhuang Puisi would do. Although he was curious about the zombies in the Corpse Nurturing Ground, he couldn't let his master take the risk just for this. If something were to happen to Du Feng, the White Bone Banner would become an ownerless object and be abandoned. Who knew when it would be picked up again? If the people who picked them up didn't like them, they might kill them all and get a new batch.
Actually, it wasn't easy to find a master like Du Feng, who was easy to talk to. Thus, the generals in the White Bone Banner didn't want him to die, including Sun Xingyi, who had always been unconvinced.
Du Feng followed the route that Zhuang Pipi had told him. He was careful not to make any noise. Moreover, he had to restrain his aura, especially not to emit heat. Zombies did not have good eyesight, but their hearing was very strong, and they could sense the body temperature of living things. In particular, the heat emitted by human martial artists could easily attract the attention of zombies.
Zombies loved to drink human blood because it contained the most energy. If there was no human blood to drink, then they would choose the blood of demonic beasts. If there was no human blood to drink, then they would lie down in a place where Yin Qi gathered to recuperate, waiting for the next target to appear.
It seemed that Zhuang Pipi's analysis was correct. This was not only a Corpse Nurturing Ground, but there was also a high level zombie active nearby. Because along the way, Du Feng didn't see any other demonic beasts. Logically speaking, on the shady side of the hillside, there was such a dense cypress forest. There should be a lot of snake and scorpion type demonic beasts. Maybe there were wolves, foxes, and other demonic beasts active in the cypress forest.
They all hid far away. This could only mean that there were zombies in the Corpse Nurturing Ground, and they were very powerful zombies. If he had enough strength, Du Feng really wanted to go to the Corpse Nurturing Ground to take a look, because killing zombies could obtain corpse cores. That thing was very helpful in increasing one's Cultivation. Especially for demonic cultivators and evil cultivators, it was a rare treasure.
It should be safe! Du Feng felt that the surroundings weren't so cold anymore. The Yin Qi wind had also weakened a lot. He knew that he had walked out of the Corpse Nurturing Ground. He let out a long sigh of relief. He could finally relax for a while.
Who knew that just as he relaxed, there would be a black shadow flashing over, rushing towards him. In a hurry, he could only judge from the shape of the black shadow, and it really did look like a human. Could it be that he was careless and was followed by a zombie?
In any case, Du Feng wasn't a person who would sit and wait for death. Whether it was a Level Nine or Level Ten zombie, he had to fight it. He knew that zombies were afraid of things of the Yang attribute, so he threw out the Soul Suppressing Monument and used the Eight Buddha Shadows at the same time.
Don't look at how the Eight Buddha Shadows' power wasn't that great now. It would still damage evil beings. The denser the opponent's Yin Qi, the greater the extent of this increase. With the help of the Soul Suppressing Monument, the power could be increased by several times.
"Bang!"
A muffled sound rang out. Du Feng knew that he had hit the opponent. From the feel of it, it was hard like a zombie. But from the weight, it didn't seem like a very powerful zombie. That was because the black shadow was directly sent flying by Du Feng.
Then, with a flash of golden light from his palm, he took a closer look. After a long time, he realized that what he had sent flying was a monkey. To be precise, it was a zombie monkey. Its strength should be around Level Nine. It was a little more powerful than the lizard on the other side of the mountain, but not by much.
No, judging from the Yin Qi in the Corpse Nurturing Ground, the zombies raised here would definitely not be so weak. Du Feng easily defeated the zombie monkey, but he became even more nervous. Because he thought of a possibility. This monkey was bitten by a zombie, and that was why it became like this. Or that zombie already had spiritual intelligence and began to cultivate its minions.
If that was the case, this mountain would become a zombie mountain sooner or later. There would be all kinds of zombie monkeys, zombie wolves, zombie gorillas, and so on. Just the thought of it was terrifying.
Thinking of this, Du Feng couldn't stay any longer. He sped up and left this troublesome place. Just as he was about to leave the cypress forest, he heard an unpleasant roar coming from behind. To be precise, it wasn't a roar, but the sound of friction and vibration when dry air rushed out of the dry trachea.
After hearing this sound, people couldn't help but have goosebumps all over their bodies, and their hair stood on end. It was as if a person who was sweating profusely had suddenly fallen into an ice-cold lake. The feeling of coldness from the skin all the way to the bone marrow was really unforgettable.
