Mutated Corpse Giant

Outside, the Tang Family Grand Estate.

Shopkeeper Ling and his four companions were all present at this time.

They had searched the old site of the Fahua Temple for a long time but hadn't found any trace of Zhang You!

"Although that little thing is missing, our plan continues and cannot be put on hold!"

The Tang Family Head, Tang Julou, said with an unchanged expression.

"It seems we have to activate the backup. Although it's not as effective as the Pure Body, it's still a special constitution, barely enough!"

City Lord Qin Fengtian sighed.

"There are still two days left. Take good care of her and nourish her body, as special constitutions are hard to find. This time, you must watch her closely, and there can be no more mistakes, otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite!"

Tang Julou's expression turned cold, and he unceremoniously unleashed his killing intent.

"I hope Shopkeeper Ling will also pay close attention to the old site of the Fahua Temple. Once that little thing appears, capture him directly to avoid further complications!"

Pang Biao snorted coldly.

"Are you telling me how to do my job?"

Shopkeeper Ling narrowed his eyes and stared at Pang Biao.

"Shopkeeper Ling, please don't be angry!"

Boss Ren stepped in to mediate.

Finally, Qin Fengtian picked up a little girl from a mansion in the southern part of the city!

Inside the Ghost Realm!

Zhang You and the Old Daoist arrived at the entrance of the main hall and were astonished as they looked at the situation outside.

In the courtyard, a red meatball was floating in the air. Debris from corpse zombies around was being forcibly sucked towards it and began to assemble around the red meatball, piece by piece.

The various corpse zombie fragments quickly fused together, fitting seamlessly to form a giant corpse zombie eight zhang tall.

This corpse zombie had two heads. Each head had a massive bull horn on its forehead, two zhang long. Its face had six blood-red eyes, and its chin was a gaping maw. Its ears were not visible.

The other head was a snake head, coiled around the other head, flicking its slender tongue. Its two eyes were completely black, like two black holes.

Its body had four arms, and its skin was covered in snake scales.

Its two legs, however, were disproportionate to its massive body, resembling the legs of some kind of bird. They were slender, with three-toed claws that exuded a chilling aura, as if they could crush an elephant.

All of this happened very quickly; they didn't have time to interrupt.

"This..."

The Old Daoist's face changed drastically.

"This thing seems very strong!"

Zhang You could also feel the increasingly powerful aura emanating from the opponent.

"Half-step Foundation Establishment Realm! Definitely Half-step Foundation Establishment Realm! Perhaps even stronger!"

The Old Daoist exclaimed.

"Very strong?"

Zhang You had only encountered some Qi Refining Realm beings at most. Honestly, their strength felt insufficient.

As for the Foundation Establishment Realm, he hadn't seen any and had no concept of it.

"Nonsense! The Foundation Establishment Realm allows the physical body to undergo its first sublimation, beginning to break away from the mortal body's scope. As for Half-step Foundation Establishment, it has already touched the threshold. The spiritual energy within has begun a quantitative change, transforming towards true essence, and its power has increased severalfold!"

The Old Daoist had been cultivating for decades but had never managed to cross this step, struggling in the ninth level of the Qi Refining Realm.

Especially now, in the era of Dharma decline, spiritual energy was receding, making the cultivation environment even more challenging.

And at this moment, the Corpse Giant had also finished evolving!

Judging solely by its appearance, one would never guess it was a stitched-together monstrosity.

"Roar..."

The Corpse Giant roared towards Zhang You and the Old Daoist.

Then, it extended a hand and, in the blink of an eye, condensed a fireball, hurling it towards the main hall.

"This is no ordinary corpse zombie!"

The Old Daoist hadn't expected it to be able to use spells!

"I'll deal with it first. You hurry up and find a way out!"

Zhang You stepped out of the main hall. This time, he held nothing back. His dense blood and qi erupted, and he leaped up, charging at the fireball at high speed.

The fireball was over ten meters in diameter. Even before reaching it, Zhang You could feel the scorching heat washing over him.

Fortunately, his blood and qi formed a protective shield on the surface of his body; otherwise, even if it didn't injure him, he would have been in a sorry state.

"I'll blow you up!"

If you think this book is good, remember to add it to your bookshelf to avoid not finding it next time.

A simple, unadorned punch struck the fireball.

It was like a moth flying into a flame!

"Boom!"

The fireball was actually blown apart.

Ultimately, Zhang Lin's strength was still superior.

"Snap!"

At this moment, the Corpse Giant attacked again, extending its two hands and slapping Zhang Lin like swatting a fly.

An energy wave even formed in the air, spreading outwards.

The Old Daoist was startled by this sight!

He could already imagine Zhang Lin's fate!

He would undoubtedly be crushed into a pulp!

He could feel the power of that slap; even if he used all the defensive techniques he knew, he probably wouldn't be able to withstand it.

If blood didn't flow from between his fingers, it would mean he died too quickly!

But very quickly, the Old Daoist realized something was wrong.

The joined hands seemed to be swelling, as if something was about to break free.

Even from a distance, a red glow could be seen emanating through the palms!

It was a blood qi so dense it was almost liquefied, and even wisps of flame could be seen within it!

"Get lost!"

Suddenly, a powerful voice that seemed to shake the heavens and earth rang out.

"Bang!"

Then, the Corpse Giant's palms exploded in mid-air.

A crimson figure began to fall.

It was Zhang Lin!

He was completely unharmed!

"Four Symbols: White Tiger: Shatter Void!"

Zhang Lin landed on the ground and attacked again, this time targeting the Corpse Giant's lower body.

This move, "Shatter Void," was now being performed with his right foot.

When he was clearing lanterns in Mass Grave Hill before, he had discovered that this move was more than just a boxing technique; it could also be executed with the feet, and its destructive power was even greater.

The Corpse Giant sensed Zhang Lin's attack and reacted swiftly, one of its claws, imbued with dense death energy, clawing fiercely at Zhang Lin.

"Boom!"

Another deafening sound followed. Zhang Lin retreated ten steps, a trickle of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

The Corpse Giant let out a roar and, on one leg, hopped backward dozens of steps.

Each step left a deep pit in the ground.

That's right, the foot and leg it had used to clash with Zhang Lin had vanished completely.

The Corpse Giant was once again at a disadvantage!

Zhang Lin hadn't expected his full-power strike to not obliterate the opponent, only destroying one leg, while he himself only sustained a minor injury!

"Squelch!"

The Corpse Giant's leg and foot grew back.

What followed was a mouthful of spit!

"Damn it, he's cheating!"

Zhang Lin retreated, dodging the unknown liquid spat out by the opponent.

A large pit was left where he had been standing, and white smoke was still rising from it.

That spit was highly corrosive.

"Let me try this move I invented!"

Zhang Lin stomped heavily on the ground, causing multiple cracks to appear.

"Here goes! Ultimate Skill: Floor Flip!"

Zhang Lin plunged his hands into the cracks and heaved upwards with all his might.

A large stone slab, dozens of feet long, was lifted and hurled directly at the Corpse Giant.

The Corpse Giant was unfazed. It swung its four arms a couple of times, smashing the stone slab.

Meanwhile, Zhang Lin's next move was already prepared!

However, neither Zhang Lin nor the Old Daoist noticed that the Buddha statue in the center of the main hall had already revealed its head!
