"Not to hide it from you, I suspect this thing was the experimental creation of certain Daoists. It ultimately became a product of natural evolution—a new type of Ember Virus. After death, it turns into a Metal Stone, which has a certain chance of becoming a life casket and giving rise to Liches that harm people."
Ning Zheng asked, "What's the chance of Metal Embers appearing after death? Are they difficult to kill?"
"The chance is only around one in ten thousand, but they're very difficult to kill. You have to rely on divination to easily find the life casket where they reside after death—their true body."
Ning Zheng understood.
One in ten thousand, similar to the normal era of the Nine Continents.
Under normal circumstances, the Nine Continents also only produced one Ember among tens of thousands of people.
"Looks like the Chosen of Destiny world is playing with fire." Ning Zheng sighed. "Some of their Daoists have been conducting secret research, modifying the mutated Ember Virus."
"That's right. There will always be some evil Daoists conducting experiments that break all bounds of decency."
Dao Jiujiu sighed. "On top of that, Daoists cultivate the path of Fate Number, which gives them exceptional luck in research. Their speed of producing results is extremely fast, so it's only natural that they've developed all sorts of bizarre things."
The path of Fate Number wasn't strong in direct combat.
But people living in this world always had to fight for resources. The saying that harmony brings wealth was nothing but a joke.
The mainstream combat method studied by the Daoists was controlling zombies.
Now that they had developed all sorts of bizarre zombie sects, it was practically as normal as could be.
The Daoist System was considered a variant of the Nine Continents
