Bronze Horn Golden Coffin! Transporting Corpses, Let's Go!

As the words fell, Daoist Priest Four-Eyes retracted his combative stance.

He suddenly staggered back a few steps.

His heart churned with disbelief.

What?

Xiantian Realm fifth layer?

Impossible. When he came back with me, he was only Xiantian fourth layer.

Even if he was at the peak of the fourth layer,

that barrier isn't like a windowpane you can just break through.

He focused his gaze.

Sensing Lin Fan's aura.

It was vast yet pure, refined and gentle.

Daoist Priest Four-Eyes stared at Lin Fan with an expression of utter disbelief.

He pointed directly at Lin Fan, as if he had seen a demon god.

His pupils dilated.

It really is Xiantian fifth layer.

"Uncle-Master, what are you doing? Did you see a ghost?"

Lin Fan, feeling flustered by the pointing, said irritably.

"You... you... you you you you. When did you break through?"

Daoist Priest Four-Eyes gasped.

"Last night. I had some insights, and then I just broke through."

Lin Fan answered calmly.

As the words fell, Daoist Priest Four-Eyes clutched his chest.

As if stimulated by something, he took deep breaths.

He couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

This brat.

To think that the difference between Xiantian fourth and fifth layers

is a qualitative leap. That threshold...

Countless predecessors have stopped here, and their numbers are beyond reckoning.

How can he say it as simply as eating a meal?

Should I laugh or cry?

"Maoshan has hope. Maoshan has hope!" Daoist Priest Qian He said with a hearty laugh. "So the real surprise is here."

"Senior Disciple Brother, I was blind. My temporary sense of superiority from breaking through clouded my judgment."

A Dong said with a slight bow, offering an apology.

Afterward, A Nan, A Xi, and A Bei also bowed.

"Hey, it's good to admit your mistakes. Senior Disciple Brother won't hold it against you."

Jia Le proudly took their hands down.

He was overjoyed, unable to express his delight.

Let's see how arrogant you were just now.

Now you know the difference between Heaven and Earth, right?

"A Dong, it's alright. The path of cultivation is endless. Applying what you learn is the key."

Lin Fan stepped forward, patted A Dong on the shoulder, and gave him an encouraging look.

"Alright, alright."

Daoist Priest Four-Eyes stepped forward and interrupted Jia Le, who was reveling in his triumph.

Lin Fan looked at the coffin before him with a hint of confusion.

He spoke to Daoist Priest Qian He, "Uncle Master, a Bronze Horn Golden Coffin, wrapped with an Ink Rope Net. Could the one inside be..."

"Nephew, that's right, the one inside is a zombie."

Daoist Priest Qian He replied truthfully.

"Then why didn't Uncle Master cremate it on the spot?"

Lin Fan immediately asked.

Daoist Priest Qian He shook his head and sighed deeply.

As if with immense helplessness, he said, "Nephew, you don't know, but after this person died, their corpse qi was too heavy, and they already turned into a Black Zombie. Now, it's probably nearing the critical point of becoming a Purple Zombie, otherwise, there wouldn't be a need for the Ink Rope Net. Moreover, it's royalty from the border. We need to hurry and transport it to the capital as quickly as possible to let the Emperor decide."

"Since the yin energy is so heavy, why doesn't the Daoist Master remove the roof to let it absorb more sunlight, which would also delay its transformation?"

Master Yixiu stepped forward upon hearing this and spoke.

As his voice fell, Daoist Priest Qian He felt as if he had been enlightened and then instructed, "Southeast, Northwest, come and remove the canopy."

With that said, his four senior disciples stepped forward.

They rolled up their sleeves, intending to remove the roof.

It happened in the blink of an eye.

A loud voice suddenly rang out.

"No!"

Lin Fan flashed in front of them.

He raised his hand to block them.

Others might not know, but he did.

In the movie, Daoist Priest Qian He...

had people remove the roof, which caused rainwater to pour in and lightning to strike.

This allowed the zombie to absorb energy and transform, leading to a total wipeout.

Lin Fan couldn't let the tragedy repeat itself.

He had to rely on Daoist Priest Qian He to earn Merit Points with him.

"This..."

Daoist Priest Qian He asked, confused.

"Uncle Master, you don't know, but I just observed the celestial phenomena. After sunset, there might be heavy rain, so it's better not to remove it. It's already transformed anyway, and rushing is the priority."

Lin Fan explained with a serious and upright demeanor.

"So that's how it is. Then let's not remove it."

Daoist Priest Qian He understood and nodded in agreement.

Lin Fan then cupped his hands and said, "Uncle Master, this place is a desolate wilderness, and the road might not be safe. I'm familiar with the terrain, how about I lead the way? I can also learn from Uncle Master..."

Before he could finish speaking, Daoist Priest Four-Eyes strode forward and clasped Lin Fan's cupped hands, "No, no, you can't just run off. If something happens, how will I explain it to your Master? No fooling around!"

"Uncle Master, are you perhaps wanting to teach me that... right now..."

Lin Fan intentionally raised an eyebrow, signaling to Daoist Priest Four-Eyes.

"I... Forget it, forget it. You're so capable, there probably won't be any major issues. Go quickly and come back quickly!"

Daoist Priest Four-Eyes seemed to have been struck at his weakest point.

With that, he let out a long sigh, as if he had narrowly escaped a great calamity.

This brat.

It seems keeping this secret technique of my sect will be difficult.

Although it's not a forbidden secret, it's still a unique skill of our sect.

If it's not taught to a disciple, then it would be breaking the rules.

I can only preserve it for now.

Suddenly, a sharp voice from behind called out again, "Stop chatting and hurry up. Look, it's almost dark."

Attendant Wu urged.

"Since that's the case, then we'll have to trouble you, junior nephew Lin Fan."

Daoist Priest Qian He politely cupped his hands towards Lin Fan.

Then, the group exchanged greetings.

And walked towards the small path in the woods.

The mountain range's terrain undulated, stretching endlessly.

Lin Fan and Daoist Priest Qian He walked side by side.

The group hurried in the direction of the capital.
