Appraiser Yan knew the Corpse Dao's methods better than anyone else. After all, he had followed the man for more than fifty years and witnessed how the man single-handedly annihilated an intermediate country.
As for smaller countries, there were plenty of them. Even now, many smaller and intermediate countries were affiliated with the Demonic Appraisal Association.
Hence, if the Corpse Dao said he would do whatever it took, a bloody storm would sweep across the world.
Appraiser Yan was more than happy to see this happen. He knew that Lin Jin was the Curator's disciple and Lin Jin had always been at odds with the Demonic Appraisal Association. It wouldn't be a bad idea to settle the score with the man.
"The Curator's whereabouts are hard to track down but his disciple, Lin Jin, is currently in Heavenly Jade Academy. If we capture Lin Jin, we can definitely force his master out," Appraiser Yan revealed everything he knew.
"Heavenly Jade Academy is the sacred land of appraisers in Central Continent. Hmph, so what? Others might be afraid but I'm not. So what if it's a premium country? So what if it's Heavenly Jade Academy? I'm going to kill whoever I meet today! "
The Corpse Dao's eyes were no longer calm.
Appraiser Yan nodded. He had always thought that the Demonic Appraisal Association was too low-profile. Now, they could finally show off their strength. This was exactly what he wanted.
More importantly, they had the strength to do so.
Next, the Dao Corpse immediately used the number two wooden tablet to forcibly open the number two wooden door, releasing a zombie beast from inside.
This was the pet beast he had formed a blood contract with years ago. Similarly, it had been nourished by the aura of death for centuries and turned into a zombie beast. This time, no one obstructed the Corpse Daoist, and the zombie beast was successfully brought out.
Meanwhile, Lin Jin had wanted to open door number two but he only had one ink seal with him. Afraid that Shu Xiao Lou wouldn't be able to handle the zombie, he hurried back to help.
After entering Shu Xiao Lou's painting world, the place had turned into a bone-chilling place.
Snowflakes fluttered in the wind as the world froze over.
Shu Xiao Lou hovered in the air, looking down at the frozen lake beneath his feet with a solemn expression.
Once Lin Jin arrived, Shu Xiao Lou said, "This zombie is really something. I can't do anything about it so I could only seal it down here for now."
There was an unprecedented sense of defeat in his tone.
From Shu Xiao Lou's tone, Lin Jin could tell how difficult it was to deal with that zombie.
"Even if we combine our powers, it won't work?" Lin Jin had privately assessed his current strength. His Rank 5 blood contract beast, Xiao Huo, was definitely one of the upper echelons among Rank 5 beasts. In addition, he had formed a blood contract with his second pet beast, the ghost-blood beast. In this world, the number of people who could rival him could be counted with one's fingers.
Shu Xiao Lou wasn't weak either, he was even stronger in some aspects.
If the two of them couldn't deal with it even after joining hands, then just how strong was this zombie?
"Zombies are neither dead nor alive. They don't belong to the cycle of reincarnation and are unique existences. Based on what I can see, the zombie below has already reached the realm of immortals." Shu Xiao Lou spoke with a straight face and Lin Jin wasn't used to it.
However, Lin Jin was still familiar with the term immortal realm.
Lin Jin immediately thought of something.
"Let it out. The Immortal Devouring Beast will get rid of this evil creature." Since they had experienced the immortal-devouring beast together, Lin Jin had told Xiao Shu Lou about this secret before.
In this world, if anyone ascended to the immortal realm, unless they were a ferocious beast, they would be attacked by the immortal devouring beast.
Lin Jin had witnessed this with his own eyes back at Daluo Temple.
Hence, using someone else to do the dirty work should work.
Shu Xiao Lou shook her head. "Didn't you hear me? Zombies don't belong to the cycle of reincarnation and are unique existences. Even if you let it out, that immortal devouring beast won't do anything."
Lin Jin pondered for a moment and agreed.
Immortal devouring beasts seemed to only attack human cultivators.
Since using someone else to do the dirty work wasn't going to work, Lin Jin asked tentatively, "What do you think about sealing it here for now?"
Just as he said that, a loud rumble came from the frozen lake below. The ice began cracking and an aura of death seeped out from the cracks.
Shu Xiao Lou's expression darkened. "Looks like sealing it won't work. Lin Jin, bring Shang'er in here. With the three of us working together, we might just be able to kill this zombie."
Surprisingly, Lin Jin didn't dare to bicker with Xiao Shu who was getting serious. He obediently accepted the ink seal from Xiao Shu and brought Shang'er back to the room.
Shang'er was a Rank 5 monster so her strength wasn't inferior to Lin Jin's. With the three of them working together, they were the strongest team they could come up with.
By then, the zombie had broken out of the ice and the aura of death began to seep into Shu Xiao Lou's realm.
"This thing can't be left alive!" Shu Xiao Lou was the first to attack. She stood high above and with a grab, the surrounding rocks gathered together and began crushing the zombie's body.
As though it was being crushed by the weight of a few mountains, a violent rumble came from below, and the lake water instantly collapsed. In Shu Xiao Lou's Painting World, her strength was undoubtedly the strongest.
Changing the environment to create an attack was Shu Xiao Lou's technique.
In the next moment, the weather in the sky changed, and a bolt of lightning struck the zombie's head.
With Shu Xiao Lou's abilities, summoning lightning within the Painting World could be considered her strongest attack.
Evil creatures like zombies would definitely be afraid of this kind of lightning. Lin Jin and Shang'er exchanged a glance before attacking together.
Other than Demonic Arts, Shang'er's current technique was to control the Ghost Spirit Sword under Object Manipulation. Shang'er loved this sword so much that she couldn't bear to part with it. Its offensive power was also astounding. According to Shang'er, there was nothing in this world that her Ghost Spirit Sword couldn't slash through.
Shang'er invoked a spell and the Ghost Spirit Sword was unsheathed. It turned into a ray of light and slashed at the zombie's neck. Before the sword reached its target, its sharpness was already there.
Lin Jin hesitated for a moment.
His forte was obviously Vulcan Edict, a domineering spell. To be honest, he liked it too. If he disliked an enemy, he could just cast a Vulcan Edict on them and let them go.
The problem was, this was different.
This was the realm of art.
His flames were too strong and domineering. Even if he released Xiao Huo, it wouldn't work. If he destroyed Shu Xiao Lou's dispelling spell, it wouldn't be worth it.
Hence, after some thought, Lin Jin took out his immortal-binding rope.
"I'm a damage dealer but now that I've been forced into a corner, I have no choice but to play support. Sigh!" Lin Jin muttered to himself. Just then, the zombie seemed to have sensed the threat. With a tremendous force, it pushed aside the rocks that were crushing it and reached out to grab Shang'er's Ghost Spirit Sword.
With a clang, Shang'er's Ghost Spirit Sword struck the zombie's arm. Although it managed to cut through the skin, it didn't break.
Without a doubt, this zombie's body was much harder than ordinary metal.
As for Shu Xiao Lou's divine lightning, it seemed like it couldn't do anything to the zombie either. No matter how many times it struck, the latter could just condense the aura of death again to resist the divine lightning.
"It's my turn now." Upon closer inspection, Lin Jin realized that the zombie was using its thick aura of death to resist the divine lightning while simultaneously using its sturdy body to block the Ghost Spirit Sword.
However, it was obvious that the zombie didn't want the Ghost Spirit Sword to reach its neck.
Perhaps the neck was the opponent's weakness.
