An alarming beam of light was seen coming from the distance, and after a while, it landed in front of a valley.

The light dispersed, and the figure of the young man was seen.

Lin Xuan did not enter the corpse valley immediately but looked at the white mist lingering outside with a thoughtful look on his face.

He seemed joyful, but also a little puzzled, this corpse dog is too thick. Didn’t the major forces send people to look for the spies?

However, since the corpse fog was still there, it proved that the zombies are still safe.

After a sigh of relief, Lin Xuan flicked his sleeve, and a lovely girl appeared in midair.

“Young Master!”

There was no need for him to say anything, their blood contract made it easy for them to communicate their thoughts, and Lin Yue’er bowed towards Lin Xuan, then entered the valley.

She had a pure Yin Ghost body, this corpse fog would not affect her. So she advanced ahead to find out about the situation.

Half an hour later, Yue’er came out from the inside and twirled her hair.

“Young Master, everything is the same as before, the zombies still exist, but those people disappeared, I don’t know whether they’re dead or alive.”

“Mm.”

Lin Xuan nodded and as soon as Yue’er was called back and entered the valley. He didn’t go to the Zombie Cave but instead went to an open space with a familiar road and a familiar door1It’s an idiom that means: Things that one knows well. .

There were cliffs on both sides, but there was a large open space in the middle, which was dozens of feet in length and width. There were no strange rocks, trees, and any other obstacles in the center. An ideal place for what he planned to do.

Lin Xuan tapped his storage bag and took out several array flags of different colors.

The Extreme Yin Spirit Array!

Rubbing the treasure in his hand, Lin Xuan’s face showed a hint of appreciation. Unlike the Array Talisman, which was a one-time consumable, array equipment could be used as many times as long as it was not damaged. It only needed to be refueled with Spirit Stones regularly.

He threw the blue flag, and used a Magic Art!

…

Within a quarter of an hour, Lin Xuan laid out the array.

After all, the zombies here, not mentioning their quality, their numbers were not trivial, but with the help of this array, they should be easy to capture.

After setting up the array, Lin Xuan applied several camouflage techniques around it, shielding the leaked Spiritual Power. Wiping the sweat on his forehead and looking at his masterpiece, Lin Xuan showed an expression of satisfaction on his face.

Subsequently, he shook his figure, applied the Imperial Wind Art, and went to the Zombie Cave.

The previous time, he went to the biggest one. The zombies in it also had the highest magical powers, and there were even two zombies that could match cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Late-stage.

Around it, there were some small Zombie Caves, and Lin Xuan only mastered the First Layer of the Heavenly Devil Corpse technique. He just needed to catch some low-level zombies.

Suddenly, Lin Xuan’s figure stumbled and stopped.

There was a boulder with the height of several people on his left, and it was dark as ink. It probably weighed at least seventy to eighty thousand pounds.

It was quite hard, and cold to the touch, it felt completely different than ordinary rocks. Instead, it was more like a block of iron.

Iron Stone!

As the name implied, this rock was extremely hard, even three times harder than iron, and its essence could even be used as an important material for the refining of Spirit Tools.

Although it was this kind of hard rock weighing tens of thousands of pounds, one-third of it was smashed into debris, which is not something a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator could do.

A dark cloud flashed across Lin Xuan’s face. Then he reached out and stroked it gently. Even the rest of it was not spared, and it had a very deep claw mark.

Lin Xuan’s expression became more and more ugly.

Picking up the broken stone on the ground and looking at it, he seemed hesitant.

But after just a slight hesitation, Lin Xuan’s figure turned into a blue ray of light, disappearing into the fog.

After a while. Lin Xuan came to the front of a cliff.

It was a huge cliff, so big that one couldn’t see its edge. Many large and small caves were distributed across it, and the distance between each cave was different. Some were seven or eight feet apart, while others were hundreds of feet away from each other.

Lin Xuan took out a Hidden Spirit Pill and consumed it. A black light flashed across his body and then his presence was completely hidden.

He came here to attract some mobs, but he didn’t want to lure those powerful zombies out.

So Lin Xuan picked a lonely cave.

He first put a layer of sound insulation around him, and then touched the storage bag on his waist. There was something alive and kicking on his palm, but it was not a Spirit Beast, just a big rooster.

Lin Xuan had a solemn look on his face, and as he rubbed his index finger, a blue light was injected into the rooster’s body.

Lin Xuan then flipped his left hand around and took out a small jade bottle.

From the inside, he took out a black pill and fed it to the rooster.

He then let it go, and the rooster regained its freedom, but it did not run around. Instead, a strange red glow appeared in its eyes, and it walked into the Zombie Cave by itself.

Lin Xuan stood outside with a solemn expression on his face while holding something with his hands.

Soon, there was a low-pitched growl from the inside, and the rooster croaked, but it quickly disappeared.

Lin Xuan’s face showed a hint of solemnity. Fortunately, he had the foresight and put a sound isolation restriction first before starting. As long as there were not a lot of Spiritual Power fluctuations, it would not alarm the other zombies nearby.

The roars became louder and louder and then mixed with a Yin Wind, rushed out two green-haired monsters, their ten fingers like hooks, their faces like skeletons, their appearance ferocious to the extreme. But Lin Xuan was relieved, it was just two small zombies with strength equivalent to the Spirit Condensation Middle-Stage.

The black fog around their bodies gradually receded.

The two zombies still had blood dripping down their mouths, they had obviously attacked and eaten it. When they tasted flesh and blood, they turned wild, and immediately roared in a frenzy, ready to pounce at anything.

Lin Xuan didn’t have the slightest fear, but there was a hint of ridicule at the corner of his mouth.

Raising his hand, he held a weird bug on his palm.
