Nothing much happened for several days. Occasionally, monsters came, but they were dealt with by Ge Changting, Old Monster Hu, and Xiao Sanniang. This saved Lu Xiaotian a lot of trouble.
Occasionally, waves of white-haired zombies would appear. Not all of them were humanoid zombies. There were also rats, wolves, leopards, and other monsters. After being killed by the white-haired zombies, they were invaded by the zombie energy and nourished by the yin energy in the tomb, becoming a member of the white-haired zombies. However, according to Old Monster Hu, these white-haired zombies formed after being killed could only be considered relatively weak among the zombies. Among the white-haired zombies, the truly powerful ones, apart from the ones that had experienced dangers and constantly matured, were the descendants of the white-haired zombies that were already extremely powerful. Their bloodlines were much purer than the white-haired zombies that were bitten to death and then contaminated by yin energy. Most of the monsters inside the zombies were the same.
If the Nascent Soul in the Soulbinding Bead wanted to seize the body of a white-haired zombie, it would have a higher chance of success if it chose a human-shaped zombie. If it chose a beast, it would have almost no chance of success given the strength of the Nascent Soul in the Soulbinding Bead. Only the Nascent Souls of cultivators who were already extremely powerful before they died, such as Core Formation Stage cultivators or even Nascent Soul Stage cultivators, would have a relatively easier time seizing the body.
The number of white-haired zombies that appeared was not many. Sometimes, they were wolf-type or leopard type. There was one time when a human-transformed zombie appeared, but there were too many of them, so Lu Xiaotian chose not to act.
On the eighth day, two Rank Four and one Rank Six humanoid white-haired zombie appeared. Under their tattered clothes, there was a layer of fine white hair that was slightly more than an inch deep. There was even some on their faces, making them look exceptionally terrifying.
Seeing the three white-haired zombies appear, Xiao Sanniang looked at Lu Xiaotian with a grave expression and asked, "Young Master, what should we do?" They naturally had no problem dealing with the two fourth-grade zombies, but the sixth-grade white-haired zombie was troublesome. At this time, they naturally had to ask Lu Xiaotian.
"I'll let the puppets deal with the sixth-grade white-haired zombie. You three, help me stall the two fourth-grade puppets. Do it. " Lu Xiaotian said. The three white-haired zombies weren't too much of a problem for him, especially when two of them had relatively low cultivation realms. This arrangement was just to give Ge Changting and the other two something to do. If they encountered any accidents and the three of them had any bad intentions, it would be hard to say. At that time, the white-haired zombies would also be of some use to them.
From within the flickering white light, the Golden Man Puppet strode towards the Sixth Stage white-haired Zombie in large strides.
The rank 6 white-furred zombie felt that it was being provoked. It opened its mouth wide, revealing four sharp fangs. However, this kind of terrifying state had no effect on the golden puppet. The Golden Puppet swung its heavy sword at the Type 6 white-haired zombie.
The sixth-grade white-haired zombie shifted its body slightly, dodging the heavy sword by a hair's breadth. It lifted its leg and kicked at the golden puppet's leg. The golden puppet also lifted its leg. Under the tremendous force of the collision, the sixth-grade white-haired zombie's body was pushed back several meters. The golden puppet naturally didn't move an inch. However, Lu Xiaotian made a light sound of surprise. With his eyesight, he naturally saw that the golden puppet's huge body had actually swayed slightly in the collision just now. Even with the golden puppet's height of nearly two meters, it was actually affected by the strength of the sixth-grade white-haired zombie. It seemed that the strength of the sixth-grade white-haired zombie's body couldn't be ignored. However, Lu Xiaotian quickly returned to normal. The white-haired zombie was the same as other zombies. Its body was its most powerful weapon. Its physical strength was extraordinarily great. It wasn't surprising that it could exchange blows with the golden puppet.
At this moment, Ge Changting, Xiao Sanniang, and Old Monster Hu saw that the most powerful sixth-grade white-haired zombie had been blocked by the huge golden puppet. They immediately let out a sigh of relief. The three of them used their own methods to trap the two incomparably ferocious fourth-grade white-haired zombies in the middle. With their strength, numbers, and their own realms being higher than the two white-haired zombies, there naturally wasn't much of a problem.
Lu Xiaotian saw that they had the situation under control. He wasn't in a hurry to make a move. Instead, he took out the Soul Binding Pearl.
"Come out. I'll help you take over a fourth-grade white-haired zombie. Our deal can be considered complete." Lu Xiaotian said to the primordial spirit within the pearl.
"What? There's a fourth-grade white-haired zombie. Isn't there still a sixth-grade one? "The primordial spirit's tone was somewhat unpleasant.
"It will take a lot of effort to control that sixth-grade white-haired zombie. I only promised to come here to help you find a body to take over. I didn't give you much. Just one word. Do you want it or not?" Lu Xiaotian's tone carried a trace of coldness.
"How about this? Fellow Daoist, bring my primordial spirit back to my master. I'll still tell you the secret from before. How about it?" The primordial spirit within the Soul Binding Pearl muttered to itself. It was clearly dissatisfied with the body of the fourth-grade white-haired zombie. Other than Lu Xiaotian, there were actually three other people present.
"You tricked me into coming here and found that there was no way out. You can't do anything to me. Are you surprised?" Lu Xiaotian said with a faint smile.
"Fellow Daoist, why do you say that? Since I invited Fellow Daoist here, I naturally can't let Fellow Daoist be trapped here forever." The primordial spirit quickly shook its head. Its voice was simple and honest.
"Alright, stop pretending. My previous promise to help you become a ghost cultivator is still valid. Now, there's already a fourth-grade white-haired zombie in front of you. If you want it, then take it. If you don't, then forget it. I didn't break my promise. As for sending you to your master, don't tell me you want me to be tricked again? "Lu Xiaotian didn't have the patience to dawdle with this fellow in front of him.
"Fellow Daoist, why do you say that? I have absolutely no intention of tricking Fellow Daoist. " The voice of the primordial spirit within the Soul Binding Pearl was slightly flustered. Clearly, it didn't expect that Lu Xiaotian already felt the opposite of him to this extent. It was also as if it was disappointed after something it was looking forward to failed.
"Young Master, this fellow is dishonest. He actually dared to deceive Young Master. Why don't you hand him over to me? I'm proficient in a secret technique. It'll be easier to deal with him in his primordial spirit state. I guarantee that I'll make him suffer a fate worse than death." Xiao Sanniang looked at the primordial spirit within the Soul Binding Pearl with ill intentions.
"That's right. He actually used Young Master's promise to trick Young Master into coming here. If it weren't for Young Master's powerful magic power, I'm afraid that danger would be lurking everywhere in this tomb. It's easy to lose your life. This person clearly has ill intentions," Ge Changting said in a sinister voice.
