The Chaos Blood Sword was unleashed like a crimson bolt of lightning. Its powerful presence had suffocated every living being around it. The power and speed of this attack had been upgraded to a whole new different level. A dozen zombies were sliced into half wherever the sword went. The entire zombie legion looked like an ironing board being cut from the middle.
“King! Strip the armor!”
Chen Xiaobei let out a loud roar and charged into the opening that he just created with his Dragon’s Edge. Just like earlier on, Chen Xiaobei had no regard of whatever Ethereal Force that he had left. All he did was crank up his Ethereal Force to the max and channeled it to his Dragon’s Edge.
“Helm!”
With both his hands gripping the saber, Chen Xiaobei aimed at a zombie that stood in front of him and landed a strike on it.
Phissh…
Just as he expected, the zombie was sliced cleanly into half! Yet the Sword Qi was not gone! The ability of Reverse Blade Spiritual Jade was triggered by Chen Xiaobei’s Ethereal Force and it was hidden within the Sword Qi. He could not help but notice that the Sword Qi was billowing out from the black saber like the breath from a black dragon. Its powerful force continued to slaughter more zombies behind the dead zombie. From the surface, the black Sword Qi might have looked harmless, but it actually contained the powerful wind element!
The most important thing was that Chen Xiaobei’s Ethereal Force could be considered as a Chaotic Ethereal Force! That would mean it could employ the power of different kind of elements according to his wishes. Also, the Wind Force that he borrowed matched perfectly with the attribute of Reverse Blade Spiritual Jade. In other words, he would receive a boost of combat power to his already whopping 180,000 combat power.
Klak!
Klak!
Klak!
Whenever the black Sword Qi swept through the horde of zombies, their bodies and bones would be sliced into pieces, dropping onto the ground like coins.
“One single strike and thousands of zombies are killed in front of me! This is awesome!”
Burning with a raging battle intent, Chen Xiaobei had not experienced such killing joy for a very long time.

Seconds later, Chen Xiaobei channeled his Ethereal Force to the saber through the air. This was to maneuver the sword to come back to him.
“Armor!”
At the same time, Chen Xiaobei swung his Dragon’s Edge once again and he managed to unleash a powerful Limitless Sword Qi onto his enemies. With the crimson lightning attack charging backwards and black dragon’s breath charging forward, a parallel attack was formed! Thousands of zombies were killed again and again.

“Shoulder! Legs! Feet!”
Considering that he had just recharged his Ethereal Force, Chen Xiaobei did not need to worry about draining it. He could fully unleash the potential of his sword and saber!
“This is awesome! Unlimited Ethereal Force! It’s like cheating in game!”
The more Chen Xiaobei killed, the more excited he got. The result of both weapons killing at the same time had exceeded his expectation. With the skill ‘Strip the King’ combined with ‘Chaos Blood Sword’, he had managed to slaughter nearly 1,000 zombies in one go. At the same time, Chen Xiaobei moved forward another couple of hundred meters to increase the killing speed.
“Swords and sabers are after all short-distance melee weapons. They are not as effective. Next, I would like to try using a weapon with more killing power!”
Chen Xiaobei then put away his Dragon’s Edge and kept the Chaos Blood Sword with him. Next, he took out a yellow gourd from his Infinite s.p.a.ce Ring. This was the Quicksand Gourd that he received from Sha Wujing. A short pause from his attack had allowed more zombies to come charging at him like a tsunami.
“Thousand tons of sand! Be my weapon!” mumbled Chen Xiaobei in a calm manner.
Swoosh…
Seconds later, a huge amount of sand started to pour out from the gourd and filled up the entire path. Facing the river of sand, the zombies in front of Chen Xiaobei were just like an army of weak ants drowning in a tide of unstoppable water.
Rumble…
Only a few seconds later, the tons of sand had managed to bury all the zombies.
“Awesome! I don’t even need Spiritual Qi to activate the Quicksand Gourd! This is the kind of thing that I would have never imagined in a million years!” said Chen Xiaobei with a smile on his face.
There were two ways to activate a Spiritual Item. First, one could use Spiritual Qi from Spiritual Stones to activate it. Second, if the level of the person’s cultivation was similar to the item, the person could use their Ethereal Force to power it! Just like the Chaos Blood Sword, Chen Xiaobei had to use True Qi as fuel to power it when his cultivation was not powerful enough. Taking a look at another example, Jingu Bang was a Divine Item and Chen Xiaobei was not powerful enough to wield it. So, he had to use a huge amount of Spiritual Stones to power it.
The Quicksand Gourd was a Six-star Spiritual Item. All these while, its level was higher than Chen Xiaobei’s cultivation level. So, he had to use a huge amount of Spiritual Stones to trigger its ability. Right now, Chen Xiaobei had achieved Ethereal cultivation and he was powerful enough to wield a Seven-star Spiritual item.
“If I can overcome this predicament and become a deity, that would mean I will be able to use any Divine Item freely! This is awesome!”
Just when Chen Xiaobei started to indulge in his new-found happiness, he noticed something odd.
“Eh? Has the sand reached the end of the path?”
Swoosh…
Swoosh…
Suddenly, the zombies that were buried in the sand started to dig their way out. According to the rules of the formation, the legion of zombies would not stop as long as the intruders were still in the tomb. Seeing that more and more zombies were climbing out of the sand, Chen Xiaobei put on a smile instead of letting panic overwhelm him.
“All the Ethereal Force that I rejuvenated earlier cannot be kept for long! It will be a waste if I don’t use it! Since the sand has reached the end of the path, let me take care of all the zombies in one go!” said Chen Xiaobei while looking at his Chaos Blood Sword.
s.h.i.+nng!
Suddenly, the Chaos Blood Sword let out a sharp shrill sound. A platinum divine rune appeared on the body of the Chaos Blood Sword and flooded the area with bright light.
s.h.i.+nng!
s.h.i.+nng!
s.h.i.+nng!
Seconds later, countless swords that were made of sand floated into the air!
10,000!
100,000!
1,000,000!
Millions of sand swords were now pointing at the legion of zombies.
“I have one sword that allows me to fight against an army!”
Chen Xiaobei then swung the Chaos Blood Sword in his hand like a general commanding his armies to charge at his enemies.
