Zhong Yun was still wondering why Xu Hu was still dropping the ball at this critical juncture. However, when he saw what was behind the door, his face was filled with surprise.
Zhong Yun almost couldn't believe what he was seeing. He rubbed his eyes hard, but there was nothing wrong with what he saw. Everything was real. It didn't seem to be an illusion.
However, Zhong Yun hoped that what he saw was an illusion and not reality. The impact on his heart was great!
Xiao Yang and Xing Tian also followed. What they saw were five cultivators.
To be precise, they were no longer cultivators. They were living corpses whose consciousness had been erased and had become the living dead!
It was not strange for living corpses to appear in this place because Zhong Yun had said before that the Qingshuang Sect had sent people to this place to search for opportunities.
In the end, those people did not return. Naturally, it was not difficult to guess that the people standing in front were all from the Qingshuang Sect.
It was not strange for those powerful beings to continuously break the mechanisms and reach this place. However, in the end, they could not hold on, or their minds were completely lost. Therefore, it was understandable that they were affected by this world and became living corpses.
When Xiao Man saw those living corpses, she frowned.
These living corpses could be said to be invulnerable. Because they had sold their souls to this secret realm, they could use the power of this secret realm at will.
Although they no longer had their own consciousness, they were very powerful and difficult to deal with.
"Wow, good guys." Xing Tian twisted his neck and looked like he was ready to attack.
This was because these living corpses were blocking their path. If they didn't clean them up, it would be impossible for them to pass through.
Moreover, being stared at by those empty eyes was not a good feeling. It even made him feel a little scared.
In fact, from Xing Tian's point of view, killing all these living corpses right now would be the true benevolence, giving them a complete release instead of letting them continue to do things they didn't know in their ignorant state.
Living corpses were like this. As a cultivator, Xiu Changsheng also cultivated to do as he pleased. However, he ended up like a blank piece of paper and even had to be manipulated by this secret realm. No matter how one looked at it, this was not comfortable.
Xiao Yang stopped Xing Tian and said, "Let's see what they say."
In any case, these people were from the Frost Rising Sect. Since Zhong Yun was here, how to deal with them naturally depended on his attitude.
If they were to make a move now, it would more or less appear a little unreasonable. Moreover, such a method was very unwise and could easily cause trouble.
How could Xiao Yang not be aware of this?
No matter what, he still had to show some respect to this temporary ally.
Seeing this, Xing Tian shrugged helplessly. Now that he had also thought of this point, he still felt a little displeased. Furthermore, this feeling was not comfortable at all.
However, since Xiao Yang had already spoken, there was naturally no need to continue being long-winded. It was meaningless.
"Second Brother, Uncle," Zhong Yun said, his voice choked with sobs.
They had all entered the last time the Secret Realm opened, and there had been no news of them since then. Who would have thought that they would become living corpses?
Although they had already mentally prepared themselves over the past thousand years, they knew that since they could not come out, it would definitely point to disaster.
However, now that they had seen with their own eyes that they had become living corpses, they could no longer remain calm.
How could such an outcome not make them shed tears?
Xu Hu also gradually came back to his senses and said, "Third Uncle, they have already become living corpses."
Zhong Yun nodded. He was not blind, so he naturally saw it clearly. However, such an outcome was difficult for him to accept.
If he had not seen it with his own eyes, Zhong Yun could accept it. However, how could he turn a blind eye to the people who were relatively close to him now becoming living corpses?
Xiao Yang and Xing Tian also smiled helplessly and shook their heads. The so-called reunion of relatives was originally a joyous occasion, but the current situation was different. No matter what, they could not be happy.
Moreover, the current situation made them feel even more depressed and helpless.
Since things had already come to this, no one could change it. There was no other way but to accept it.
As for the other three living corpses, although they were not members of the Azure Frost Sect's Zhong Family, they were all elders of the sect and were all experts.
The living corpses seemed to have gradually awakened. They all raised their heads in a daze and looked at the intruding guests.
In an instant, the eyes of the living corpses also changed. They were no longer as stiff and empty as before.
However, the emotion that came with it was anger.
It was as if countless flames of anger were about to erupt. These intruders had disturbed their peace, so naturally, this matter could not be let go just like that.
As a result, the living corpses' emotions became exceptionally high.
When he saw the living corpses approaching stiffly, Xu Hu's legs trembled a little.
He naturally knew that these people were all experts a thousand years ago. They were not people he could contend against. It was hard to say how much these people's cultivation had improved in the thousand years they had spent in the Secret Realm.
"Third Uncle, we can't hesitate any longer." Xu Hu urged anxiously.
Although these living corpses were their respected elders a thousand years ago, they were just living corpses now. They were inhumane.
The other party would not be grateful that blood was thicker than water. They would only kill aimlessly and expel the intruders one by one.
Thinking of this, Xu Hu also felt a little numb on his scalp.
Zhong Yun nodded. He understood all this, but it was difficult for him to be ruthless.
They were his beloved and respected elder brother and father. So, how could he possibly attack and kill them right here and now?
At this moment, Zhong Yun's state of mind could be said to be under great torture. He couldn't make a decision now.
They were all his dearest people. Now that they had reunited, how could he fight with them?
Thinking of this, Zhong Yun's state of mind was also in a more tangled state. He really couldn't say what choice he should make now.
At the same time, he was also very helpless. It seemed that no matter how he thought about it, the situation was very bad.
To move forward, they must kill all of them, otherwise they couldn't pass.
However, if they retreated just like that, then all their efforts would be in vain, and their previous sacrifices would also become meaningless.
Change the path? That was even more unrealistic. Who knew what the dangers in other directions were?
"Mr. Zhong, my condolences." Xiao Yang patted him on the shoulder and mourned.
