Chapter 642: 348 Yin Corpse

The scene before his eyes started to rewind, playing backward from that moment onwards.

Fang Zhixing saw himself returning to the mountaintop, where he witnessed his battle with the minotaur-like creature.

Then, he watched his conversation with Witty Flower and listened to the dialogue once again.

Last, the scene paused when he was sitting alone cross-legged on the summit.

Time reversed exactly by one day!

In the next moment, like a rubber band stretched to its limit, it snapped back violently.

A day’s time compressed into an instant.

Everything seemed like...

[Burst Skill: Ephemeral (Lv6)]

"The Buddha said to Shariputra, ’Such is the wondrous Dharma, spoken by the Tathagatas at times, just like the ephemeral blooming of the udumbara flower."

Fang Zhixing had a great epiphany and lightly sighed, "Truly worthy of Emperor Longevity Dragon Skill, awesome!"

He opened his eyes, stood up calmly, and clenched his fists slightly.

Instantly, an even more formidable power surged forth, astonishing and unprecedented.

"I have become stronger again..."

Fang Zhixing smiled contentedly, his mood instantly very joyful.

Just then, Xigou returned from scouting and exclaimed, "Fang Zhixing, there are many zombies outside."

"Zombies?!"

Fang Zhixing raised an eyebrow, curiosity apparent on his face, and laughed, "Speaking of which, we have never fought zombies before."

Xigou, with a look of disdain, said disgustedly, "They stink like hell, reek of shit; I can’t stomach the smell!"

Fang Zhixing chuckled and, with a flick of his toes, flew out with Xigou.

Looking around, the sky was filled with dense clouds, with flashes of lightning and sounds of thunder.

The entire canyon appeared as if it had fallen into the Demon Realm.

The air was permeated with a piercing stench of decay and a chilling, sinister aura.

"Fellow Daoist, please halt."

Suddenly, a cold voice came from the depths of the rolling clouds.

Fang Zhixing paused his steps and hovered in mid-air, looking up slightly.

The clouds quickly churned and gathered into a mass, slowly descending.

A tall, bald old man in a black robe stood atop the clouds, his robe fluttering in the wind.

The bald old man had a pale face, deep-set eyes, and lacked eyebrows and a beard.

His cheeks were gaunt and elongated, carrying a frightening twist that could scare children to tears.

Fang Zhixing, unfazed, with hands behind his back, asked, "Fellow Daoist is?"

The bald old man chuckled coldly and said, "Oh, how rare, you don’t recognize me?"

He spread his arms, straightened his black robe, and ominously smiled, "Allow me a grand introduction, I am the ’Yin Corpse Old Man’. Usually, I have no special hobbies, except for playing with corpses."

He stared deeply at Fang Zhixing, bowed his head politely, and asked, "May I inquire, fellow Daoist, would you consider ending your life and granting your corpse to me for my enjoyment?"

Fang Zhixing’s lips curled into a faint smile, and he responded with a chuckle, "So you are the Yin Corpse Old Man. I have indeed heard of you, you have a necrophilia fetish."

Yin Corpse Old Man rubbed his hands together, his expression obsessed as he said, "Corpses can neither speak nor move; they are vulnerable and in need of protection.

My love for corpses is meticulous and undisputed, yet misunderstood by the world, truly an unfortunate fact of life."

At those words!

Xigou, disgusted, exclaimed, "Damn, this old freak is too twisted."

Fang Zhixing clicked his tongue, pursing his lips and asking, "Did you specifically come looking for me?"

Yin Corpse Old Man smiled and said, "Both the current emperor and Wanfa Temple are quite dissatisfied with you, offering a massive bounty and promising great rewards.

If I capture you and turn you into my beloved corpse, the current emperor will bestow upon me a city and confer the title of City Lord upon me, and he even allows me to breed Corpse Slaves.

Moreover, in the near future, when the emperor sets out to the Outer Sea, I shall also have the honor to accompany him."

Fang Zhixing understood, puzzled, and asked, "I am curious, how did you find me?"

Yin Corpse Old Man spread open his left hand, revealing a golden bone, playing with it and saying, "Looks familiar? This is Shariputra’s Relic from Master Kongji, who died because of you. There is a karmic connection between you and him.

Wanfa Temple burned Master Kongji’s bones, refined twenty-one Relics, and distributed them.

I fought for this Relic through my strength. Possessing it, no matter where you are, it’s only a matter of time through the subtle connection of karma to find you."

Fang Zhixing understood, comparing the Relic to the Great Reversal Curse Seal.

He displayed a sneer, indifferently saying, "Qian State is Buddhist territory, and Buddhist people haven’t urgently sought me; you seem overly eager."

Yin Corpse Old Man cackled sinisterly, responding, "I worry others might damage your corpse, hence I hurried over, hoping to gently collect your corpse and cherish it with all my heart, all out of concern. Please understand."

Fang Zhixing looked around, asking, "What Array have you set up?"

Yin Corpse Old Man chuckled and said, "Merely the ’Myriad Corpse Yin Fire Formation,’ nothing special, no offense meant."

Fang Zhixing nodded, his fighting spirit high, and said directly, "Then let us fight."

"Please!"

Yin Corpse Old Man, his face filled with obsessive delight, licked his lips and said, "Rest assured, I always harbor a caring heart, and I’ll definitely leave you a whole corpse."

As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding clouds churned violently, gathering towards him.

In an instant, Yin Corpse Old Man disappeared.

At the same time, Fang Zhixing and Xigou were engulfed by the clouds, the surroundings dimmed, and it was so dark that they couldn’t see their fingers in front of them.

"Shit, it stinks!"

Xigou, greatly nauseated, stuck out his tongue, gagging, wishing he could plug his nose.

Seeing this, Fang Zhixing simply plummeted downward, closing in on the ground.

"Awww~"

Suddenly, a strange howling sound came from below, neither human nor beast.
