The Senior Brother Who Taught Them!

"Shi Mang greets fellow Daoist!" Shi Mang bowed respectfully as he followed the instructions.

"Haha, junior brother, no need for such formalities." The corpse monster seemed quite pleased.

"By the way, since you're here, why don't you come and sit down at my place? I'll do my duty as a host."

The corpse monster extended an invitation to Shi Mang and Lin Yunji.

"I'm truly sorry, fellow Daoist."

We are carrying out the Immortal Venerable's decree and cannot linger. We must quickly settle the Immortal Venerable's important matter.

Shi Mang said with a troubled expression.

"Since it is His Majesty's decree, it should be so!"

The corpse monster was very reasonable.

"Since you're passing through, I'll see you off as a gesture of hospitality. Once you've finished your important business with His Excellency, we'll drink to our hearts' content!"

"Thank you, fellow Daoist."

Shi Mang cupped his hands in thanks and said, "Please!" Shi Mang gestured for him to enter.

The corpse monster immediately turned around and strode ahead.

Shi Mang followed behind him, while Lin Yunji and the others exchanged glances and followed as well.

"He was formed from the physical body of Supreme Being. When the Source Realm was destroyed, countless acts of killing were committed. Some Supreme Beings were caught off guard and their Primordial Spirit were directly destroyed."

Only a mindless corpse remained.

Thus, the remaining memories within these corpses controlled the already dead bodies, resulting in their current appearance.

Shi Mang secretly transmitted his voice to Lin Yunji and the others.

"I see," Lin Yunji replied.

"Don't worry, it has no intelligence. Just trick it a little, no need to fight it," Shi Mang said with a slight smile, transmitting his voice.

Lin Yunji looked up at Shi Mang and secretly gave him a thumbs up.

The corpse monster led the way, and strangely enough, they seemed to encounter far fewer dangers.

Even when there was occasional danger, it was always dealt with by the zombie monsters that were closest to them.

At this moment, Lin Yunji and the others were also secretly alarmed.

This corpse monster appears to have originated from the bodies of deceased Supreme, but its combat power is truly formidable.

His every move exuded an unparalleled aura of power.

The owners of these corpses were definitely not nobodys in life!

Even so, they are still dead, buried in the dust of time.

It's hard to imagine what a terrifying situation it must have been when the Ancient Realm shattered.

The Ancient Realm is vast, with so many powerful figures, so why couldn't anyone save Ancient Realm? And what exactly is this man-made disaster that the Supreme Panshen mentioned?

"Fellow Daoist, do you know why the Ancient Realm was destroyed back then?"

Lin Yunji couldn't help but whisper to Shi Mang.

"I don't know either," Shi Mang replied.

"After the destruction of the Ancient Realm, the surviving deities discussed the matter."

At that time, Xuan Luo and I accompanied the White Dragon Battle Venerable to the council of the Venerables.

Some Supreme believe that our Primordial Expanse Universe has come to an end.

Disillusionment is perfectly normal.

Some Supreme also believe that the accumulated karma of killing in the Ancient Realm triggered the calamity of slaughter.

Some Supreme believe that a Divine Ability Origin Venerable being deliberately shattered the Ancient Realm.

"But no one can be sure what the truth is. It's all just speculation."

Shi Mang said this,

"Perhaps the five Origin Venerable Origin Venerable know. But after the Great Calamity, their whereabouts became unknown. No one knows where they went."

"Hmm," Lin Yunji said.

The corpse monster led the way, and after walking for a long time, it suddenly stopped.

"By the way, junior brother, there's something I want to ask you."

The corpse monster didn't turn around, it just spoke.

"Please ask away, fellow Daoist," Shi Mang said in a slightly solemn voice.

"Why are we all dead, but you're still alive?"

The corpse monster turned around, and the smiles on the heads on its body had disappeared, replaced by streaks of bloody tears!

"This is bad!" Lin Yunji's heart skipped a beat.

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, the corpse monster launched a fierce attack on Shi Mang.

From who knows where he came from, he pulled out one Primordial Expanse Supreme Treasure after another and hurled them at Shi Mang.

The terrifying power surged, and even though Shi Mang was carrying the Twelve Realms Stone Bell, he was blasted back and coughed up blood!

"This guy's tough!" Shi Mang cried out in anguish. "Don't fight him head-on!"

But by the time he said these things, it was too late.

After the corpse monster repelled the Shi Mang, it turned and pounced on Lin Yunji.

Lin Yunji dared not be careless.

He took a deep breath and immediately unleashed the Universe Furnace!

A phantom image of a Universe Furnace appeared behind Lin Yunji, his combat power instantly soaring a hundredfold. He roared and slammed his fist into it.

Boom!

The void trembled, and Lin Yunji's figure was forced back, while the corpse monster was also blasted away by Lin Yunji to an unknown distance!

"Run!"

Lin Yunji let out a long shout, grabbed Shi Mang, used the Jade Butterfly of Creation to conceal his aura, and vanished in a flash of light.

"Where are you going?!"

Lin Yunji and the others fled, but the corpse monster roared and relentlessly pursued them.

Wherever it goes, it crushes everything in its path.

After the corpse monster chased after them for a long time and then disappeared.

In this void, Lin Yunji reappeared in their true forms.

"Phew! That was close!"

Lin Yunji breathed a long sigh of relief and wiped away the cold sweat.

Fortunately, this corpse monster lacked sufficient intelligence and was unfamiliar with the Great Dao arts of transformation. After the Jade Butterfly of Creation concealed its aura, it could no longer find them.

"How can this monster be so ferocious!"

You Han's voice trembled as he spoke.

She had just clearly seen that Lin Yunji and the monster clashed head-on, causing the Jade Butterfly of Creation to tremble violently and its radiance to dim.

Clearly, the Jade Butterfly of Creation was injured by this attack.

"The monster's corpse originally belonged to Chang Yanzi."

Before the destruction of the Ancient Realm, the reputation of that Chang Yanzi was no less than that of the Immortal Venerable Hongluo.

He was a very famous and influential figure.

If he were still alive, I'm afraid none of us would have made it out today.

Shi Mang said in a low voice, "I never expected that Chang Yanzi would actually transform into a corpse monster."

"Chang Yanzi..." Lin Yunji murmured subconsciously.

"Yes." Shi Mang nodded solemnly.

Then he added,

"He was the senior brother who taught Patriarch Cansha and White Dragon Battle Venerable back then!"

They were actually my two masters! My and Xuan Luo's grandmasters!

Upon hearing this, Lin Yunji's heart trembled violently!

He had indeed heard the Patriarch Cansha mention that he and the White Dragon Battle Venerable had once served under the Immortal Venerable Hongluo.

However, the Celestial Venerable rarely preaches in person; his teachings are usually delivered by his senior brothers.

I never expected to run into this "senior teacher" right here today!

"Chang Yanzi, who was such a figure back then? I never imagined he would fall so low." Shi Mang felt a pang of pity.

"Fellow Daoist, don't overthink it," Lin Yunji comforted him.

"I'm fine, just a little sad," Shi Mang said with a smile.

"By the way, how are your injuries, fellow Daoist?" Lin Yunji asked Shi Mang again.

"It's nothing, just a minor injury. I didn't expect him to suddenly turn on me and fight back so fiercely," Shi Mang said, somewhat embarrassed.
