A Vague Memory

"What's up?"

Lin·Purple Firmament arrived at the current base of the Resident Happiness Living Department in Green Mountain Town. The Seventh Vice Minister and Liu Gang and others were there, along with several 'medical staff' or researchers wearing white coats.

However, they all had fluctuations of True Essence, indicating that they had all cultivated the Hundred Battles Sutra and had already entered the basics.

It turns out to be Second Personality; this is getting a bit troublesome.

Looking at Lin·Purple Firmament's cold expression, the Seventh Vice Minister muttered to himself.

He then said, "Mister Lin, let me introduce you. You've met Liu Gang and the others before. These are our accompanying medical staff and researchers..."

"Um."

Lin·Purple Firmament nodded, which was considered a greeting.

He didn't recognize these people, but he could guess that they were probably in positions like 'military doctors' or similar, and the researchers were probably similar as well.

"Let's get to the point!"

With only one day left in this time travel, Lin·Purple Firmament didn't have anything urgent to do, but since she had said that her ' Second Personality ' should be aloof and 'domineering'...

Then we can't give up halfway, can we?

"It's like this..."

The Seventh Vice Minister took a deep breath. "Breaking news, there are zombies appearing at Wudang.

"What?"

Lin·Purple Firmament raised an eyebrow. "Zombies?"

"Like those in the movies, all stiff, ugly as hell, jumping around and all they do is suck blood?"

Lin·Purple Firmament naturally knew about zombies.

However, the zombies in the Cultivation World are quite different from the zombies in movies on Earth.

In movies and TV shows, zombies can basically only hop, only know how to suck blood, and are afraid of the sun...

In Lin·Purple Firmament's opinion, this doesn't deserve to be called a zombie at all; at most, it's just a 'rigid corpse'!

It's just that this corpse can jump and suck blood for some reason.

In the Cultivation World, zombies are more like a kind of 'cultivator'.

Although they don't cultivate the Path of Immortality of immortality, it's still a form of cultivation. They are no different from ordinary people in their daily lives, except that their bodies contain corpse poison, and they are no longer human...

Legend has it that the progenitor of zombies was born from the negative energy and resentment of heaven and earth, transcending the three realms and the five elements, and is Old Undying and indestructible...

Now, the zombies in the Cultivation World are naturally not at that level, but they are not weak either, with the strong ones able to stand shoulder to shoulder with the great powers!

However, zombies generally do not possess magic; they rely on their terrifying physical bodies to fight against the zombie poison.

Moreover, this thing has no Divine Sense!

It has a soul, but no Divine Sense...

Where do zombies come from?

Lin·Purple Firmament was also confused, but... zombies have appeared on Earth too?

This surprised her, and she couldn't help but wonder whether it was a zombie from the Cultivation World or a 'rigid corpse' from Earth.

"We don't know the specifics either."

The Seventh Vice Minister took a deep breath and said, "The matter happened very suddenly. Just last night, a group of five saw moonlight falling from the sky and thought that some precious medicine had been born, so..."

"After that, he was the only one who escaped."

"Luo Shiping said he was absolutely certain that he hadn't misheard; his brother was calling for zombies and told him to run."

"At the same time, he also posted the photos online, and we used various methods to make them clearer..."

"This is what we got in the photos."

He nodded to Liu Gang, who opened the folder, and a printed photo appeared before Lin·Purple Firmament's eyes.

Black and white photograph.

It's not particularly clear, but you can still make out a lot of things...

Her red, vertical pupils gleamed, and although only half her face was visible, it was clear that she was 'female,' and the fangs at the corners of her mouth were extremely sharp...

The clothes they wore were also in the ancient style.

"This is all the intelligence we have at the moment."

"According to Luo Shiping, this thing is terrifying and can even cause a level 10 gale. So our Wudang branch has only temporarily isolated that area to prevent anyone from getting close."

"We have no experience or confidence in dealing with this kind of thing, so we would like to ask Mister Lin to take a look."

"Let's go take a look!"

Lin·Purple Firmament stood up without much hesitation.

In her view, Earth's secrets are becoming more numerous and increasingly complex...

Zombies?!

This thing is at least a product of a thousand years ago. Perhaps we can uncover some of the mystery from her! Lin·Purple Firmament naturally wouldn't miss it.

"The plane is ready." The Seventh Vice Minister took a deep breath and said, "We'll go with you..."

Zombies!

Lin·Purple Firmament was simply interested, but the feelings of the Seventh Vice Minister and even the entire Resident Happiness Living Department were not so pleasant.

For them, this is a huge threat and an unknown!

After all, this thing sucks blood!

Furthermore, based on movies and novels, zombies are highly contagious. What if she becomes too powerful and uncontrollable?

Or what if zombies start appearing in other places too?!

Therefore, they must quickly ascertain the true strength of the zombies, or find a way to subdue them, otherwise...

They couldn't feel at ease.

Half an hour later, the plane took off and then landed directly at the foot of Wudang Mountain!

The news hadn't spread yet, so it didn't cause much of a stir online. However, the members of the Wudang Sect did find out.

In fact, after Luo Shiping fled in a panic, he immediately went to the Wudang Sect for help!

The Wudang Sect also took it very seriously, but even the sect leader Chen Chuping had no confidence in dealing with the zombie, so he reported it to the higher-ups of the Resident Happiness Living Department.

At that moment, as the group disembarked from the plane, Chen Chuping was already waiting there with several 'middle-aged Old Taoist '.

A middle-aged Old Taoist...

There seems to be a contradiction.

But that is indeed the case. Just over half a month ago, they were Old Taoist, but now they are middle-aged.

"Seventh Vice Minister."

Chen Chuping cupped his hands in a respectful but not servile manner, and instead bowed deeply to Lin Fan, saying, "Mister Lin!"

"Okay, no need for further words, let's go and see!"

The Seventh Vice Minister, concerned about Lin Fan's ' Second Personality ' being dissatisfied, stepped forward and said they would go and see the specific situation before discussing anything else.

Along the way, Luo Shiping was also brought over. At this moment, his face was pale, his whole body was trembling, and he even had a high fever.

"It was my fault."

"I shouldn't... I shouldn't have abandoned them and run away, otherwise..."

He murmured to himself, filled with self-reproach.

"You should run."

However, Liu Gang stepped closer and said directly, "If you don't run, there will be one more victim!"

"You don't actually think you can save them by staying behind, do you?"

"Am I overestimating myself?"

"..."

Luo Shiping was speechless for a moment.

I've never seen anything so hurtful!

One kilometer from the cave Entering Dao, hundreds of members of the Resident Happiness Living Department stood ready, armed with long guns and various monitoring devices, and even some black dogs, inkstones, and Glutinous Rice...

"What are you doing here?"

Lin·Purple Firmament blinked upon seeing this.

"Cough."

The Seventh Vice Minister was slightly embarrassed. "Well... none of us have experience dealing with zombies. There are some folk tales, though, so..."

"..."

Chen Chuping kept his eyes down, seemingly oblivious to everything around him.

But the Seventh Vice Minister betrayed him directly. "Master Chen made many suggestions..."

"..."

Chen Chuping was speechless.

Lin·Purple Firmament remained noncommittal and crossed the defense line.

With him there, the others weren't intimidated and all followed him...

"How about it?"

Upon reaching the vicinity of the stone wall and gazing at the cave from afar, the Seventh Vice Minister couldn't help but ask a question...

Lin·Purple Firmament remained silent, but after scanning the area with her Divine Sense, she immediately raised an eyebrow.

"This..."

She was somewhat shaken.

In many situations, Divine Sense is more useful than the naked eye! Therefore, she had already figured out the situation inside the cave.

But that's precisely why she was shocked!

There are definitely zombies!

And they're not those 'rigid corpses,' but real zombies, the kind that can continuously cultivate and have sentience!

But that's not the problem. The problem is...

That face!

A woman's face gave off a sense of familiarity. Lin·Purple Firmament frowned and thought hard, but she couldn't remember it no matter what she did!

This is very unusual.

As a cultivator at the peak of the Void Refinement stage, Qi Zixiao's memory is astonishing. Although he is currently using the alternate account ' Lin·Purple Firmament '.

But her memory is fine!

I will never forget anyone I've met!

But at this moment, she realized that she couldn't remember anyone whose face resembled the zombie, as if this memory had been sealed away by a terrifying being!

It's as if this memory has been 'censored'.

I can't remember!

"How so?!"

Lin·Purple Firmament was puzzled and also didn't believe in superstition!

She frowned and remained silent, carefully recalling all her memories, but... she felt a sudden pang of heartache for no apparent reason.

It seems that if she were to forcibly touch that memory, a true terror would descend, and at that time, everything would cease to exist!

"What... happened?!"

Lin·Purple Firmament was secretly alarmed and found it hard to understand.

Could it be that a part of my memory has been sealed away by someone, or by something inexplicable and inexplicable?!

But why hadn't she noticed anything before? Only now, after 'seeing' the zombie's face and feeling a sense of familiarity, could she not remember it at all?

Like looking at flowers through fog, you can't see them clearly.

When one tries to forcefully explore that memory, one has a premonition that great terror is about to befall...

"How about it?"

"She can't possibly be more capable than you, right?"

Seeing Lin·Purple Firmament's furrowed brows, the Seventh Vice Minister was secretly alarmed. In his view, Lin Fan was the last trump card.

But even this trump card is frowning right now?!

"Well... that's hard to say."

Lin·Purple Firmament slowly exhaled, no longer trying to forcefully probe that memory, after all, the great terror that made her heart tremble was simply too frightening.

"Ah??"

The Seventh Vice Minister and Liu Gang were all frightened, as were Chen Chuping and others.

Even this person isn't confident?!

What exactly is this zombie...?

"Roar!!!"

Just then, a roar came from inside the cave, carrying a hint of excitement.

A massive release tomorrow! Five chapters of 5000 words each, totaling 25,000 words! Hmph!
