Chapter 8 Zombie Crystal Nucleus, Centennial Green Ghost

As a large number of resentful spirits and fierce ghosts were refined by Zheng Yi, the stronghold of fierce ghosts here was destroyed, and the cold aura dissipated.

The sunlight shone in, and without that gloom and ghostly aura, the place naturally became warmer.

Turning back, Zheng Yi strode out with determination, a hint of a smile playing at the corner of his mouth.

...

On the way, Zheng Yi encountered batch after batch of zombies.

These walking corpses-like monsters still maintained a basic human form.

Pale skin, vacant eyes with bloodshot veins, various wounds all over their bodies, devoid of human intelligence, leaving only a shell and the instinct to crazily pursue living creatures.

When Zheng Yi appeared on the street, the large group of zombies went crazy upon sensing the vitality in his body, surging towards him like a tide.

Zheng Yi was not polite either, as the spiritual power within him urged the steel long sword, transforming into a cold Sword Qi that soared into the sky, mercilessly killing all the zombies he encountered. With a single stroke, he split their bodies from head to crotch.

This was something Zheng Yi later discovered.

These zombies were no longer considered true living beings, only manipulated walking corpses controlled by viral genes.

Their fatal weakness lay in their heads, to be precise, the zombie crystal nucleus in their minds that drove the walking corpses.

By dissecting or directly destroying the zombie crystal nucleus, these zombies would be completely killed.

In the meantime, several resentful spirits attacked Zheng Yi, but he captured them with the Soul Assimilating Banner, tearing them into fragments of spirit bodies.

Along the way, just by killing zombies, Zheng Yi collected over a hundred zombie crystal nuclei.

"What can these zombie crystal nuclei be used for?!"

Walking along the road, he casually tossed the colorful crystal nuclei.

After killing all the zombies, Zheng Yi did not waste the zombie crystal nuclei from their minds, collecting them and storing them in a small bag tied to his waist.

Leaving the school, the only things he saw on the way were the dilapidated buildings and the zombies feasting on each other.

These bloodthirsty zombies, driven only by instinct, all roared and charged at Zheng Yi upon seeing him, their murky eyes filled with a craving for flesh and blood.

Helplessly, Zheng Yi could only help them find release one by one, resulting in a large harvest of zombie crystal nuclei. At this point, the number of zombie crystal nuclei in his hands had reached nearly two hundred.

Although Zheng Yi learned from the natives of this world how to absorb the crystal nuclei.

Simply swallowing them was enough, as long as one could withstand the erosion of the zombie crystal nuclei, they could awaken special abilities.

Originally, Zheng Yi was eager to try, but he realized that all these crystal nuclei were taken from the heads of zombies, and he was not an ability user. If there were any side effects from swallowing them, it would be too late to regret it.

It's better to focus on cultivating immortality!

This Doomsday World had plenty of resources he needed for cultivation, so there was no need to take such risks for a small profit.

As for discarding these zombie crystal nuclei, Zheng Yi was somewhat reluctant.

After all, each of these colorful crystal nuclei contained a special life energy.

If he could truly discover a way to use these crystal nuclei in the future, it would be a waste to casually discard such a large amount of resources.

The only way was to store these zombie crystal nuclei for future use.

Along the way, killing zombies and refining resentful spirits, Zheng Yi encountered a heavy rain.

To avoid getting wet, Zheng Yi chose the entrance of an underground garage and walked into a building.

This Doomsday World had been almost completely destroyed in the great disaster, leaving only some ruins.

On his way, Zheng Yi encountered quite a few dilapidated buildings like the underground garage entrance he chose.

However, as Zheng Yi just stepped into the entrance and turned the corner, he suddenly felt a chilling coldness rushing towards him.

The almost substantial gloom seemed to freeze the air, and a piercing coldness surged from the soles of his feet, making him shiver involuntarily.

"Not good, is there something ghostly here?"

In an instant, Zheng Yi waved the Soul Assimilating Banner, and almost half of the evolving Green Ghost Dao was activated, covering his body with a black mist.

After doing all this, Zheng Yi's first priority was not to engage in a fight with the other party.

Instead, after desperately counterattacking, he immediately turned and fled.

But before Zheng Yi could retreat to a safe position, a fierce shout pierced his mind like a steel needle.

The intense pain shot through his nerves, making it unbearable, causing him to almost fall to the ground.

At this moment, three ferocious old ghosts roared towards Zheng Yi, surrounding him in an instant.

Zheng Yi was startled, but remained calm, waving the Soul Assimilating Banner to fully activate the evolving Green Ghost Dao.

The many fierce ghosts refined inside the Soul Assimilating Banner were all summoned, surrounding his body.

The nerve-stimulating screams and howls echoed, and Zheng Yi finally saw the appearance of the three attacking old ghosts.

Their bodies were all ashen, their clothes tattered, their fingers turned into sharp claws, and two bloodthirsty fangs protruded from their mouths.

Although their bodies were emaciated, they possessed immense strength. With a single blow, they directly sent one of the fierce ghosts within the Soul Assimilating Banner flying.

Moreover, their movements were extremely fast, almost like lightning, leaving little opportunity for the many fierce ghosts within the Soul Assimilating Banner to form a defensive formation.

"A green face, sharp fangs, emaciated figure, and boundless strength, as fast as the wind!"

"Are these the Centennial Green Ghosts?!"

With his extensive knowledge, Zheng Yi immediately grasped the key point and judged the origins of these three evil ghosts, feeling a sinking sensation in his heart.

The term "centennial" did not necessarily mean that these old ghosts had been alive for a hundred years, but rather that their cultivation had reached a hundred years.

For cultivators, cultivation required the inhalation of the essence of the sun and moon, as well as the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. However, for fierce ghosts and resentful spirits, aside from nourishment from the mysterious yin energy, their main method of cultivation was devouring each other.

Similar to nurturing gu, in a vast space, all fierce ghosts devoured each other, and after mutual feasting, the resulting evolved Ghost Dao would be much deeper than that of ordinary resentful spirits.

These three green-faced old ghosts were just ordinary ghostly beings, far inferior in rank to the main soul of the Soul Assimilating Banner, the Red-Clothed Female Ghost.

However, the depth of their Ghost Dao was extremely profound, far surpassing that of the Red-Clothed Fierce Ghost. It was unknown how many spirit bodies of resentful spirits they had devoured to reach their current level.

Moreover, this doomsday space was inexplicably strange, and within just a few decades, so many sinister ghostly beings had emerged, indicating something highly unusual.
