The long sword in his hand pierced into the mouth of a zombie. With a flick of his wrist, the long sword slashed horizontally, causing the zombie's head to explode. The stinky dark-green brain matter splattered everywhere. The zombie's entire body turned greyish white in an instant. A faint black gas drifted out from the zombie's body and dissipated … …
In the next second, before the faint green shadow floated out of the zombie's body, Xia Pingan somersaulted in the air and hurriedly dodged it.
A black wolf with red eyes scuttled close to the ground and pounced. It bared its sharp teeth and bit at Xia Pingan's throat.
Black wolf. This was the third type of zombie Xia Pingan had seen here.
His long sword quickly slashed out and directly chopped off the black wolf's head. He kicked away a green-skinned zombie that had approached him from behind, and the green-skinned zombie's head caved in. With a strange cry, Xia Pingan turned around and sent the green-skinned zombie's head flying with a slash of his sword.
In front of him was a forest, and there were more than ten zombies on the ground.
The battle had lasted less than half a minute.
Xia Pingan leaned against a big tree and panted, vigilantly looking around the forest.
Only then did the shadows of the zombies on the ground gradually dissipate. The corpses turned into fine sand, and bits of golden light flew toward Xia Pingan as if attracted by a magnet. They fused into Xia Pingan's chest. That little bit of warmth directly shook Xia Pingan's spirit, and his exhaustion disappeared. It was as if he had taken tonics and stimulants, and he was full of energy again.
Xia Pingan had been fighting in the wilderness for an entire day and night, and had cleared a large number of zombies in the wilderness.
So far, Xia Pingan had encountered three types of zombies in the wilderness. One was the green-skinned little monster, another was the black wolf, and the last type was the Treant. The Treant liked to live in the forest. They were like moving dead wood, or some kind of insect that could mimic branches. They were over two meters tall, and when they swung their arms, they were heavy and powerful, and could smash boulders.
One thing these zombies had in common was that they were extremely aggressive and bloodthirsty. As soon as they saw Xia Pingan, they would immediately kill him. Therefore, Xia Pingan did not hold back. When he saw these zombies, he used the most straightforward method to free them.
This kind of battle should have been very tiring, but after killing those zombies, the soul power of the zombies would be transferred to Xia Pingan's body bit by bit. That soul power was the best supplement. With the replenishment of that soul power, Xia Pingan became more and more courageous as he fought. He gradually approached the valley.
This valley was called the Twilight Valley. Xia Pingan still had a map of the Spiritual Realm on him.
At this moment, Xia Pingan's soul power was less than 30 slashes. It was much higher than when he had first entered this place. However, this amount of soul power was still not enough in Elder Mu's eyes.
This valley was about 50 kilometers east of the Spirit Husbandry Stronghold. After fighting here for half a day, Xia Pingan's soul power had doubled. He was already very close to the minimum soul power required to learn the Soul Refining Technique. He just needed a few more zombies, and it would be enough.
Xia Pingan discovered that there was a cave in the valley ahead. He had just seen two green-skinned zombies run out of the cave. Seeing that the cave was not far away, Xia Pingan mustered up his courage and crept towards the cave.
There were many pale skeletons scattered at the entrance of the cave. Some of the skeletons seemed to belong to humans, but there were also all kinds of strange animals. When Xia Pingan stepped on them, the skeletons cracked and shattered.
There was a thin layer of fog inside the cave, making it look a little dark. However, there were all kinds of colorful stalactites in the cave that gave off a faint glow. This made the cave look very strange.
When Xia Pingan entered the cave, two green-skinned zombies roared and rushed towards him.
The sword-light of Flying Edge flickered twice, and the heads of the two zombies flew up. Their souls were freed, and the two golden lights merged into Xia Pingan's chest.
Xia Pingan crept into the cave and killed more than 10 green-skinned zombies. When he neared the interior of the cave, the air in the cave suddenly became polluted, and an indescribable stench filled the cave.
"Hualala … Hualala …" Xia Pingan heard the sound of iron chains rattling inside the cave. Out of curiosity, he carefully walked towards the direction of the sound of iron chains.
After turning around a few stalactites and a twisted cave entrance, the scene in front of him suddenly opened up. He had already arrived at the interior of the cave.
However, the scene that Xia Pingan saw shocked him greatly.
He saw four black chains in the interior of the cave. One end was tied to a huge stalactite in the cave, and the other end was tied to a person. When Xia Pingan saw that person, he was squatting on the ground with disheveled hair, and his shoulders were constantly shaking. It was unknown what he was doing. There were also more than 10 green-skinned zombies kneeling in a circle around the person. It was unknown what they were doing.
Xia Pingan just appeared here without making any sound. The person squatting on the ground with disheveled hair noticed his arrival. He suddenly turned his head and looked in the direction of Xia Pingan.
It was a human face. The face was shrouded in black gas, and his eyes were blood-red. The person was chewing on half of a rotten zombie corpse, revealing a mouth full of fangs. It was extremely ferocious and terrifying. The person seemed to be wearing the armor of a spirit herder. The armor was somewhat tattered and rusted, and it was unknown how many years it had been there.
"Who is it?" The person roared and stood up abruptly. The chains on his body rattled. The surrounding green-skinned zombies also turned their heads at once. They all held their weapons and rushed towards Xia Pingan while yelling.
F * ck!
Xia Pingan did not retreat. He directly rushed towards the green-skinned zombies. The sword light continued to dance, and one by one, the heads of the green-skinned zombies flew and fell in front of Xia Pingan.
The bodies of the green-skinned zombies turned into fine sand. Green light constantly appeared, and one by one, their souls were freed. Little bits of golden light constantly gathered towards Xia Pingan.
Suddenly, there was a gust of wind beside him. Xia Pingan reached out and blocked with his longsword.
"Dang … …" A loud sound rang out, Xia Pingan's arm and chest felt stuffy, the Flying Edge sword in his hand almost fell out of his hand, his whole body was almost knocked upside down, he quickly dodged, and quickly retreated a few meters.
The person with four chains on his body had already rushed in front of Xia Pingan. He was like a madman, holding a rusty broadsword in his hand. With just one slash, he sent Xia Pingan flying.
That person's face was incomparably malevolent, and there were even bits of black scales on his face. He wanted to chase after Xia Pingan, but the iron chains on his hands and feet tugged, causing that person's movements to become sluggish, and he was unable to charge over.
Xia Pingan saw the person's face contorted in pain. The broadsword in his hand fell to the ground with a clang. Then, he held his head with both hands and roared in the cave.
A few more green-skinned zombies rushed over, but they were killed by Xia Pingan in the blink of an eye. The green-skinned zombies in the cave were wiped out by Xia Pingan in the blink of an eye.
The man who was chained rushed over again with a broadsword.
Xia Pingan exchanged two moves with the person. His arm was numb from the shock, and he quickly retreated.
In all fairness, if the person was not chained up, Xia Pingan would not be his opponent. However, the person was chained up, and on the other hand, he was in great pain. Often, after exchanging two moves with Xia Pingan, he would hold his head and roll on the ground. This gave Xia Pingan a chance to breathe.
"Hurry up … kill me …" After another exchange, the person rolled on the ground. Then, he suddenly raised his head and roared at Xia Pingan with a face contorted in pain.
After roaring, Xia Pingan saw the person pick up the broadsword in his left hand and slash at his own neck. However, his right hand caught the broadsword. Then, the person's face was covered with black scales again. The scales extended from his face to his neck. Then, the person's eyes turned blood-red, and his face became ferocious again. He rushed towards Xia Pingan.
The iron chain worked again. The person roared and began to chop at the heavy iron chain on his body with his broadsword. Sparks flew in all directions. In the blink of an eye, one of the iron rings was broken. Seeing this, Xia Pingan hurriedly rushed up and gritted his teeth to fight the person again.
After a few moves, with a clang, Xia Pingan's Flying Awn was directly sent flying by the person's broadsword. It turned into a streamer and stabbed into the stone wall 30 meters away. Xia Pingan's face changed. Just when he was about to retreat, the person's face contorted in pain again. The broadsword in his hand fell to the ground, and he held his head with both hands.
Xia Pingan gritted his teeth and rushed to the side of that person. He half-knelt on the ground and picked up that person's saber. With a single slash, he chopped off one of that person's legs. That person uttered a strange cry and half-knelt on the ground at once. His hands reached towards Xia Pingan's eyes and neck. One hand grabbed Xia Pingan's eyes and the other hand grabbed Xia Pingan's throat.
Xia Pingan took two steps back again to avoid the person's attack. At the same time, he stretched out his arm. With the broadsword in his hand, the attack range was enough. The broadsword turned into a cold light and swept across the person's neck. That person's neck flew up and rolled to the ground.
Xia Pingan held the broadsword and panted violently. A black gas drilled out of the person's body and let out an ear-piercing scream. Then, it dissipated. Then, spots of white light began to appear on that person's body. Within the white light, a handsome man appeared. The man looked at Xia Pingan and felt relieved. He said lightly, "Thank you, I'm finally free …" Then, the white light also dissipated.
In the next second, a golden flame flew out from where the white light disappeared and directly entered Xia Pingan's chest.
Xia Pingan's Soul Power began to boil.
At this moment, Xia Pingan felt like he was about to explode from the Soul Power. Xia Pingan's body was emitting a dazzling golden light. He only felt the Soul Power in his body rising rapidly like a flood.
After about five or six minutes, that boiling Soul Power finally stopped, and the Soul Power in Xia Pingan's body had already increased explosively by several times, reaching the standard of around 120 slashes …
