Struck It Rich Again

Once one shoulder had been dislocated, Lu Zheng prepared himself for its frenzied counterattack.

Sure enough, after failing to escape and suffering grievous wounds, the zombie's savage instincts began to suppress its reason.

Its black-rimmed red eyes grew ever redder, the murderous ferocity in them nearly drowning out its consciousness.

Though this old zombie's cultivation was somewhat higher, its control over itself was inferior to that of the zombie they had slain in the Chicken Cry Temple Secret Realm last time.

"Die!"

The old zombie roared, completely abandoning Yan Hongxia and Ao Qi. Corpse Qi coiled around its body, and its aura actually surged another thirty percent stronger than before.

Neither too near nor too far, he neither used the Earthwalk Technique to flee
