Chapter 40 - White-haired Monster CorpseThe flower spot was the name Li Mu had given to the Multi Colored Tiger. Honestly speaking, if the Multi Colored Tiger had been able to reach the Green Cloud Mountain in two months, it would have been the most helpful.
Seeing the spots on the tiger that was so tired, Li Mu"s heart softened and jumped down. He touched the spot on the tiger"s head and felt a little embarra.s.sed."Alright. Then, let"s rest here for the night and continue our journey tomorrow. I"ll go find some food!"
Li Mu and Ren Xiaoyao greeted each other, then carried their bags and walked towards the forest on the other side.
Ren Xiaoyao heaved a sigh of relief. Leaning against a huge tree, he built up a fire, then retrieved a wine pot to happily drink a few mouthfuls, while Hua Ban laid not far from Ren Xiaoyao as if a burden had been lifted off his shoulders, and fell into a deep sleep.
Walking in the forest, Li Mu used the river crossing step to wander around, and gradually he felt something strange, he didn"t know why, but the forest was abnormally quiet, terrifyingly quiet. Along the way, he really did not encounter a single beast."How can this be? This Green Cloud Mountain is so big, it"s impossible that not even a single beast or bird can be found! "
Li Mu muttered to himself. He took another look around, and then sprinted a few kilometers back and forth. However, the mountain was still a mountain, and the tree was still a tree.
"Strange, weird, could it be that you"ve seen a ghost?"
Li Mu"s curiosity got stronger and stronger, he gritted his teeth and activated river crossing step to its limit, increasing the range of his search once again. He could not believe that in the entire Green Cloud Mountain, he would not be able to find a single beast to sacrifice to the Five Zombies Temple.Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, an hour had pa.s.sed. Standing on top of a huge tree branch, Li Mu drooped his head and pulled a long face.
He still did not encounter a living thing, not even a tiny worm.
"Roar!"Suddenly, Li Mu"s ears moved, he heard an angry beast roar. From the range of his senses, it did not seem to be far from him.
"There"s finally movement!"
Li Mu"s face lit up, and with a flash, he rushed towards the direction of where the roar came from. From afar, he looked like a nimble ape.Not long after, Li Mu finally arrived at the place where the beast roars originated from, but when he saw the scene in front of him, even he could not help but take in a breath of cold air.
Not far in front of him were a group of strange, triple-horned demon beasts that looked like black cattle were fighting with a group of humanoid creatures.
There were more than twenty humanoid creatures with snow-white hair and disheveled hair. Other than their movements being a bit stiff, they were no different from humans.
However, this did not make much of a difference. When Li Mu looked at one of the faces from a distance, he could not help but vomit.
Most of their cheeks were covered with lines of white maggots. Their eyes shone with a green light, their fangs were revealed, and their fingernails were incomparably long. They looked very much like the demon corpses that Li Mu had seen in an ancient book."Roar!"
The Three-Horned Black Bull was in a disadvantageous position after being attacked by more than twenty humanoid creatures. It would let out roars from time to time. It was not because the Three-Horned Black Bull was weak, but because these humanoid creatures were truly strange.
Li Mu saw it with his own eyes. A humanoid monster had its chest pierced by a triangle-shaped black bull, if it was a normal person, this kind of attack would be fatal, but for the humanoid organism, this kind of fatal attack seemed to have no effect.
With the horn pierced through its chest, the humanoid only let out an angry roar. Then, it stood up and continued its fierce attack on the triangle-shaped black yak.
Facing a group of almost indestructible humanoids, the triangle-shaped black yak was extremely aggrieved. However, there was nothing he could do. His intelligence was not high, and even though he had brute force, it was useless.
If it weren"t for the thick and rough skin of the triangle-shaped black yak, as well as the fact that it would be difficult for the claws of the humanoid creature to deal fatal damage to it within a short period of time, its soul would have long since left its body.
"This triangle-shaped black yak is really powerful. Judging from the aura emitted by his body, he"s at least at the third level, but he"s still being suppressed!""Is this really the legendary demon corpse?" It really looks like it was transformed from a rotting corpse, but it actually didn"t die. "
Li Mu was hiding on top of a huge tree, watching the intense battle from before, his heart was shaken, he finally understood why there were no longer any beasts or birds here. With this group of terrifying humanoid creatures, even living beings would be scared off.
"Roar!"
A hoof trampled a human-shaped creature beneath its feet, and the sharp horn on the head of the triangle-shaped black bull suddenly pierced down, nailing the human-shaped creature to the ground.But at this moment, the remaining humanoid creatures rushed forward and pounced onto the body of the triangle-shaped black yak. The triangle-shaped black yak roared and shook its body, but it was unable to shake off these humanoid creatures.
These humanoid creatures had sharp fangs. If a single bite were to land on the body of the triangular-shaped black yak, it would not be fatal. However, a pounce on the triangular-shaped black yak had an effect very quickly.
The triangle-shaped black yak gradually collapsed, its cries slowly calming down. Very quickly, a stream of fresh red blood flowed out, and Li Mu knew that this Level Three demon beast was completely finished.As expected, in less than half an incense"s time, the huge black yak was cleanly devoured by the humanoid creatures, leaving behind a pool of blood on the spot.
"Gulp!"
Li Mu swallowed his saliva, looking at the humanoid beast"s unsatisfied look, his stomach started to growl.
cursed inwardly. He never thought that these half human, half ghost monsters would have such good hearing.
"Err …!"
All of them surrounded the giant tree that Li Mu was on. In the blink of an eye, the tree that Li Mu was on was filled with human-shaped monsters.
These humanoid monsters raised their heads to stare at Li Mu on the tree, who knows which one of them was the first to attack. All of them brandished their claws and smashed down towards the giant tree, which was as thick as a bucket.
"Crack!"
Li Mu"s expression was extremely gloomy. He did not have any intention of fighting with these monsters, and with a flash of the river crossing step, he quickly fled into the distance.
"Roar!"Seeing that Li Mu had run away, the humanoid creatures all shouted and chased after him. Although their individual attack power was not weak, but their speed was obviously their weakness. In a few flashes, they were far behind Li Mu.
"What the h.e.l.l! "This Qingyun Mountain is very strange. We should meet up with Brother Xiao Yao first. We should not stay here for too long."
Li Mu ran like the wind towards the direction of the loops. After the time it took to make a cup of tea, Li Mu had already arrived at where Ren Xiaoyao was.
"Go to h.e.l.l!"
The moment Li Mu got near to the resting area of Ren Xiaoyao, he heard Ren Xiaoyao"s furious voice, as well as intense battle sounds.
"Something has happened!"
Li Mu felt that something was wrong, he increased his speed by a few points, and in a few breaths time, he arrived at the place where the battle was taking place.
"It"s that d.a.m.ned thing again!"
Not too far away from him, Ren Xiaoyao was fighting with the five humanoid monsters with bare hands.
Not far from Ren Xiaoyao, there was another battle formation. It was a young, bald, young man with a large circular blade who was currently fighting against five humanoid monsters. Although he was outnumbered, he was not at a disadvantage at all.
"World Destroying Saber!"
The bald-headed youth roared as the large saber in his hand emitted a strong golden light. With a single slash, he chopped off the arm of a humanoid monster.A surprising scene appeared. The humanoid monster with a severed arm grabbed the broken arm from the ground and quickly pressed it to the wound. A faint green light flashed from the wound, and the severed arm was reattached.
"Wood, you really are a log!" Brother, I can"t even hold on any longer. Why don"t you hurry up and help! "
After sending a humanoid monster flying several meters away with a punch, Ren Xiaoyao spotted Li Mu from the corner of his eyes and immediately shouted out loud."I"m here!"
Being called out like that by Ren Xiaoyao, only then did Li Mu realize that he was his enemy"s companion. Immediately, he pulled out his partridge and rushed into Ren Xiaoyao"s battle.
"Roar!"
Seeing that another person had appeared, the humanoid monster did not have a shred of fear, but on the contrary, it became even more excited. Of the five humanoid monsters that were fighting Ren Xiaoyao, two of them rushed towards him.
"You look so fierce. Let me test your strength!"
Li Mu revolved the Great Brahma Art, and the golden True Essence in his body surged violently. At the same time, the partridge golden light in his hands surged, and with the support of Li Mu"s True Essence, it became like a golden holy sword.
"Clang!"
With a crisp sound of metal clashing, Li Mu flashed across the sky and appeared behind a humanoid monster, slashing his sword onto the monster"s back.
What shocked Li Mu the most, was that his sword strike did not harm his opponent, and had only pushed his opponent several meters back. This was also the reason why his physical strength was so strong, if not, it would not even be able to affect him in the slightest.
"His body is actually so strong, what is this monster made of!"
Li Mu muttered in disbelief."If I"m not wrong, this is a Corpse Monster, commonly known as a demon corpse or a zombie!"
Ren Xiaoyao, who was closest to Li Mu, warned.
"It really is a demon corpse!" It is indeed worthy of such a great reputation! "
Li Mu cursed out, he just threw the partridge to the side and started operating the Heavenly Demon Nine Transformations.The black gold colored flowing light covered his entire body, and Li Mu raised his physical strength to the limit.
"Boom!"
The other demon corpse waved his claw towards Li Mu, hitting his body, and then bursting out with an explosive sound.Li Mu stood in place without moving at all. He had deliberately taken this attack, in order to test the opponent"s attack power.
Although it was risky, Li Mu still made the bet. The opponent"s physical body was extremely strong, but compared to the who had cultivated to the third form of the Heavenly Demon Nine Transformations, he was still lacking a lot.
"Abnormal!"
When Ren Xiaoyao was fighting, he happened to see Li Mu being unharmed by the demon corpse"s attack. Even though he was usually arrogant and proud, he still could not help but mutter.
