The massive corpses slowly floating on the water suddenly spat out poisonous gas and shot out of the water with astonishing speed. They flew into the darkness of the boat.
He Yishi's mouth was agape, and the Thousand Mechanism Crossbow in his hand drooped down. Terrifying corpses filled the space around him, making him feel like he was trapped in a terrifying hell. Even though they were the proud sons of heaven from the Hundred Schools of Thought, it was clear what would happen to them if they were dragged into the water.
Hao Pingyang roared as he swung the Yellow Dragon's Cannon of Devouring Light at the floating corpses, but he was unable to send them flying. The corpses exploded, releasing large amounts of poisonous gas and spewing out dark green corpse fluid. With a sizzling sound, the fluid splashed onto the deck of the boat, causing white smoke to rise. It landed on Hao Pingyang's face. Although it was blocked by his zhenqi, he still cut a sorry figure.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Corpses exploded on the boat one after another. A thick poisonous fog completely enveloped the boat, making it impossible to see beyond a foot. All one could hear were the moans of the corpses echoing through the cavern.
Losing his vision, Jin Bao panicked. He shouted, "Brother! Brother! " It was as if he was the only one left in this terrifying hell. He roared and shot into the water, instinctively releasing his zhenqi to block the attacks from all directions. The boat was too small, and the puppets could not move at all. Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! Whoosh! The Fire Crow Bolts ran out in an instant, disappearing into the fog. Most of them shot into the water, exploding and kicking up even more ferocious waves. The boat seemed to be sailing in a stormy sea, but it just couldn't move a single step. Countless corpse hands held the boat firmly in place, climbing onto the side of the boat and dragging it into the water.
"Not good! The boat is sinking!" Jin Bao shouted in panic. At this moment, an extremely withered corpse hand suddenly pierced through the fog and grabbed his hand!
"Ahhhhh!" Jin Bao screamed and retreated, knocking into someone. Although the corpse hand was blown away with a burst of zhenqi, his mind was not so easy to calm down. Holy Church
In the thick fog, Jinyuan heard his little brother's scream and also shouted, "Jinbao, what happened to you?!"
"I … I …" Jin Bao panted as he tried his best to lower his head. The Yellow Dragon's Cannon of Devouring Light buzzed above his head, stirring up a gale that did nothing to disperse the mist. Instead, it grew thicker and thicker.
"Oh no, my True Qi is about to run out!" He Yishi's tone changed. He no longer had the heroic spirit he had before he set off. Amidst the poisonous gas, not only did he have to release his zhenqi to protect every inch of his skin, he also had to slap away the attacks of the corpses from time to time.
The other four were silent, and Zhao Lanqing was dumbstruck. Hao Pingyang wielded the Yellow Dragon's Devouring Cannon like a flaming wheel, repelling all the zombies that attempted to board the ship.
Li Qingshan wove a web of blades with his Wind-entwining blade, dicing up all the corpses that fell down from above. He felt extremely helpless over the performance of his teammates. Although the water corpses were terrifying, they were nowhere close to the zombies in the morgue. As long as they were prepared, even the masters of the jianghu could deal with them.
The Zombie Daoist had successfully used the geographical advantage to unleash his full strength, dealing a mental blow to their minds and depleting their true qi. Even though he was not a strategist, he was a tactician. It was possible to imagine what the outcome would be if the Submerged Shadow Sword were still around and they launched a sneak attack in the mist.
Li Qingshan touched his talisman pouch, but then he smiled and pulled his hand back. He called out to Zhang Lanqing, "Prepare to set off!"
Zhang Lanqing returned to his senses. "What!?"
Little Ann was expressionless, but he moved as nimbly as a monkey. He snatched the Thousand Mechanism crossbow from Jin Bao's hands, and with two clicks, he loaded a new box of Fire Crow bolts into it. He spread out his arms, and the crossbow spat out bolts. He spun around, and the Fire Crow bolts formed a circle, brushing past everyone's hands and feet, landing on the water corpses on the side of the ship with great precision.
Boom! Boom! Boom! A series of intense explosions sounded out, kicking up waves of air and water that knocked the ship off the surface of the water. ("")
Zhang Lanqing called out. He channeled all of his zhenqi into the ship, and a stream of air spurted out from the stern. It took off and charged out of the poisonous mist. All that was left behind were mangled corpses and outstretched hands.
His vision cleared up, and He Yishi could not help but ravish with joy. He looked at the others, and they were no different from him. Only Li Qingshan and Hao Pingyang remained calm.
Screeching sounds rang out again. Giant floating corpses spat out poisonous gas as they crashed into the ship.
At some point, Little Ann had already stood at the bow of the ship. Her clothes billowed in the wind, and her thick, wavy, seaweed-like hair was pulled behind her, brushing past Zhang Lanqing's face. He widened his eyes, and felt that this silent child emitted a dazzling light.
Her expression did not change, and her two small, white hands gripped the two Thousand Mechanism crossbows. She did not move at all in the violent turbulence. The floating corpses exploded in the air, and not a single one was able to get within ten steps of the ship.
Bang! The ship once again landed heavily in the water, sending up countless waves. It sailed forward at full speed, leaving the dangerous waters behind. Cheers rang out from the ship, and Hao Pingyang could not help but let out a sigh of relief.
Li Qingshan placed his hand on Little Ann's shoulder, and smiled approvingly. Even he could not have done a better job while controlling his strength. In the end, it was still his own people who were more reliable. My Little Ann is not a pig-headed teammate like you guys!
Little Ann's lips curled into a smile, and she blinked her eyes, which twinkled like stars.
Li Qingshan nodded slightly, and the Skull Prayer Beads were thrown into the water once more.
Hao Pingyang mumbled, "Is she still a child?" Even as a sixth layer Qi Practitioner, he did not have a better performance. Of course, his position was not that of an ordinary sixth layer Qi Practitioner. The explosive power of the Yellow Dragon's Cannon of Devouring Light was enough to kill any sixth layer Qi Practitioner, and its killing range was extremely long. It was an even more frightening weapon than ordinary flying swords, but it was not suited for close combat.
Li Qingshan shrugged. Those behind you are the ones who are more like children. Before he could speak, Hao Pingyang's spittle flew everywhere as he cursed, "You bastards, and you still say you want to wash away your shame? Wash my ass, you can't even compare to a child. I think the three of us together will be much safer than with you guys."
They looked at each other, and then lowered their heads, unable to say anything.
Little Ann reluctantly returned the Thousand Mechanism crossbow to Jin Bao, and handed the other to Zhang Lanqing. She felt that this trip was very interesting, more interesting than Jiaping City. At least shooting zombies was much more fun than stabbing ants.
If Hao Pingyang and the others knew that their bitter battle was just an interesting shooting game to her, they would definitely be shocked. But compared to the dangers that Li Qingshan and the others had experienced, this was truly at the level of a game. There was no danger to speak of.
Zhang Lanqing said, "I'll give it to you. I still have another one. This is a spare." Zhang Lanqing wanted to rub Little Ann's head, but Little Ann dodged. He did not feel embarrassed, and smiled as he rubbed his own head.
Jin Bao gritted his teeth. "I'll give you mine too." He was indebted to Li Qingshan and Little Ann for helping him twice, but he had no way to repay them. Seeing Zhang Lanqing's generosity, he could not bring himself to do this at his young age. Moreover, this thing in his hands was completely different from when it was in the child's hands. Now that Little Ann held the Thousand Mechanism crossbow, he felt more at ease than when he held it himself. His life seemed to be more secure.
Then, the two of them very happily gave each of them ten boxes of Fire Crow Bolts. These were all things that could not be avoided on this trip. Rather than wasting them in their hands, it was better to give them to the child.
Li Qingshan thanked Little Ann on his behalf. These two Thousand Mechanism crossbows were truly powerful weapons. An ordinary third or fourth layer Qi Practitioner could pose a threat to a Qi Practitioner two or three layers above them. Moreover, it consumed very little true qi. This kind of effect was not something an ordinary low-grade spirit weapon could compare to. It was worth at least a few hundred Qi Gathering Pills.
Little Ann lowered his head and played with the Thousand Mechanism crossbow. This crossbow's design was extremely intricate. Who knew how many parts it was made of. Although it was made of wood, it was as heavy as steel.
In reality, Li Qingshan had still underestimated the value of these two Thousand Mechanism crossbows. These Mohist disciples had not even brought a single talisman with them. They had only brought a few puppets, a crossbow, and as many Fire Crow Bolts as they could. This was a sign of their trust in these weapons.
If they were sold outside, the price could easily exceed a thousand Qi Gathering Pills. They were expensive because of the blood, sweat, and tears the disciples of mohism had poured into them. However, as the makers, the cost was not that high, which was why they were so generous.
In the region of water they had just left, the Skull Prayer Bead turned into a huge skull. It spat out flames and swept away all of the corpses, whether they could move or not. After eating their fill, they left Just Now.
A while later, black figures caught up quickly. They were the Hawkwolf guards led by Zhuo Zhibo. They did not use a ship, using their own strength.
Some were like apes, extending their arms and grabbing the rock pillars at the top of the cave before leaping forward. Others would step on the slippery, slippery walls and gently push off the ground when they ran out of strength, arriving on the other side of the wall. They advanced in a crisscrossing manner. They were no slower than the boats that travelled with the flow. Whether it be their reactions or their movement techniques, they were all first-rate.
The most graceful of them all was Zhuo Zhibo. He did not use his legs, but he stood on the surface of the water like it was flat ground, advancing rapidly. Only at a closer glance would they discover that he was standing on the tip of his foot.
At this moment, they stopped to investigate. Xie Nande said, "That's strange. I clearly heard the sounds of battle Just Now, so why aren't there any corpses?"
"Whatever. Let's catch up to them and kill them all first. We don't have to worry about anyone escaping in this cave."
"Aren't we going to use them to kill the Zombie Daoist?"
"I don't think they'll be able to reach the Zombie Daoist's nest."
Zhuo Zhibo pondered silently for a while before suddenly swinging his hand forward, making a gesture to kill. The cave constantly twisted and turned. In such a terrain, Hao Pingyang's cannons were unable to unleash their full power, so there was nothing to fear.
