Blood Sacrifice To Millions Of Zombies, I Will Be A Demon Cultivator In The Apocalypse

Chapter 85: Bone Devil Path

At the same time, the things produced by various workshops were separated and sent to various locations for storage. These were all strategic-level supplies, greatly enhancing the efficiency of zombie utilization.

Whether it was the blood flesh gourd, ghost infant, zombie blood bat incubation, or Zheng Yi's daily cultivation of bone armor, they all required a large amount of these resources.

However, the speed at which the zombies were being processed still couldn't keep up with the usage speed. Zheng Yi briefly instructed to speed up the construction of supporting equipment and increase the factory's output.

After the blood rice was brought to the apocalypse world, it quickly grew under the nourishment of the remaining zombie residue. Professional personnel mixed growth hormones, greatly reducing the time it took for growth by using the concentrated essence of zombie blood.

However, it would still take at least three to four months for the first batch of blood rice to mature.

These were magical plants cultivated from zombie flesh and blood, containing a unique life force.

Of course, compared to the Spirit Rice in the Dayi Immortal Domain, which takes two to three years to harvest a crop, the effect was worlds apart.

But this blood rice tasted good. After being transformed by magical plants, the essence of zombie life contained within could be fully absorbed by the human body. Besides satisfying hunger, it could also to some extent enhance the physical qualities of the consumer.

Those who consumed it regularly had a much higher probability of awakening supernatural abilities than others.

As long as it had an effect, Zheng Yi didn't care how significant it was. After all, this was brought here for experimentation.

The first batch of blood rice quotas were already full, mainly rewarding those who had high scores and made significant contributions to the blood flesh factory. This further motivated the entire gathering place.

Laborers were the most honorable. Apart from providing basic necessities for the elderly, weak, sick, and disabled, the remaining people had to participate in labor to receive corresponding rewards. Free-riding was unacceptable, and Zheng Yi deeply felt this problem.

After this adjustment, talents emerged in the gathering place, attracting more survivors to come and live here. The points system also increased people's enthusiasm for work, making them more efficient.

After all, Zheng Yi, a mysterious figure with a background, had brought visible changes to the entire gathering place. It was said that this blood rice, grown with zombie flesh and blood, could enhance physical qualities and even increase the probability of awakening supernatural abilities, which greatly excited everyone.

For those with supernatural abilities, long-term consumption of this food would also rapidly increase the energy within their bodies, making their abilities stronger. It was considered a good resource for cultivation, although not as good as zombie crystal cores. However, it had stable output and great potential, so they worked harder.

Of course, the reason Zheng Yi did all this was not for others. His main purpose was to increase his own strength and lay a solid foundation to keep up with his footsteps for future resources.

But he was only responsible for overseeing the general situation and planning the outline. The rest had to be left to professionals. He didn't have the time or energy to waste on such trivial matters.

So after arranging the optimization and governance of the gathering place, selecting talented individuals, and controlling the rapid development of the gathering place, he disappeared again and left the gathering place to go to other areas to kill zombies.

...

Zheng Yi stood at the broken end of a bridge, with zombies lying behind him, scattered all over the place.

The brains of each zombie had been cracked open, and all the zombie crystals had been taken out.

Zheng Yi stood at the bridge pier of the broken bridge, looking down, only to see large black shadows surging in the flowing water, occasionally causing violent splashes, revealing their huge bodies covered in gray scales.

"There are really zombie fish in there!"

Thinking about the various information collected about the apocalypse, one of the records mentioned that not only humans turned into zombies, but many other creatures did as well, including fish in the water. However, Zheng Yi had always been in the city and hadn't carefully investigated this.

At this moment, standing at the broken bridge, Zheng Yi looked down at the surging water, confirming the fact that there were indeed black shadows inside, and they all seemed quite large.

Bang!

A loud noise came from the water surface, and suddenly, Zheng Yi saw a big mouth opening in his line of sight. A huge fish leaped out of the water and bit towards him, who was standing on the broken bridge.

Sharp teeth, mutated skull protruding forward, scales becoming large and tight, with a peculiar gray-brown color, emitting a pale deathly aura. The pair of whitened eyes were empty and lifeless, as if dead.

Snap!

The big mouth closed, biting off a large piece of the broken bridge, and the massive body turned around and fell down below.

"Jiang Taigong fishing, willing to be caught."

"If you're here, come up!"

Suddenly, Zheng Yi's figure appeared in mid-air, and black mist emerged from his body, extending forward like a giant python, rapidly growing dozens of meters in an instant, thick and massive, forming a ghostly claw that fiercely entangled the falling corpse fish.

This huge mutated zombie fish actually paused in mid-air, swinging its huge tail, twisting back and forth, trying to break free from the invisible entanglement.

With a flick of his finger, snap, the fish's head broke, revealing a huge hole, and a deep green crystal was picked out. The fish, now devoid of its crystal, weakly fell down.

"No wonder they say that mutated animals are more ferocious and powerful. Just by comparing the size and color of the crystal nucleus, there is already a significant difference."

Looking at the crystal nucleus in his hand, which was about the size of an egg and had a deep green color, Zheng Yi couldn't help but say.

Obviously, this crystal nucleus contained more life force and had better quality compared to the crystal nuclei of zombies of the same level.

Zheng Yi found a good opportunity to plunder zombie crystal nuclei, constantly luring those mutated zombie fish, killing them directly, taking only the crystal nuclei, and ignoring the bodies.

Having stayed here for a whole day, Zheng Yi witnessed zombie fish ranging from five to fifteen meters in size. Although the quantity was not large, the quality was better.

Moreover, Zheng Yi also discovered that the zombie fish mutated almost every five levels, becoming a more powerful level of zombie fish.

For example, those below five meters were considered first-level zombie fish, while those below ten meters were second-level, and those below fifteen meters were third-level, and so on.

In this section of the river that passed through the city, Zheng Yi had almost cleared out all the mutated zombie fish that survived in the water, and then he left.

Immediately, Zheng Yi went to other areas of Luo City, going wherever there were more zombie hordes and zombie creatures.

During this process, Zheng Yi no longer had much interest in ordinary zombies, but instead focused on stronger mutated zombies.

Only the zombie crystal nuclei they provided could temper his body. Ordinary zombie crystal nuclei were not completely useless to him, but their effectiveness was already very low.

Swish!

A strange-looking zombie with its eyes covered by skin and an eye growing on its forehead suddenly attacked Zheng Yi, shooting a red light directly at his chest.

Puff!

A flash of fire appeared, leaving a black mark on Zheng Yi's chest robe. It seemed to have no major impact and didn't even penetrate his clothes.

As his cultivation reached the high stage of Qi Refining, a protective shield-like barrier formed on the surface of the cultivator's body.

The attack from the one-eyed zombie had a hint of sneakiness, but the energy it contained was too low to cause significant damage to a high-stage Qi Refining cultivator.

If it were in the early days of the apocalypse, this attack would have caused considerable damage to Zheng Yi.

"Die!"

A flying sword descended like lightning, piercing through the one-eyed zombie and flying out from the back of its head, carrying a crimson crystal nucleus, returning to Zheng Yi's hand.

In order to find mutated zombies that contained higher-level crystal nuclei, as well as zombie beasts, Zheng Yi ventured into areas of Luo City that he had never been to before, encountering increasingly strange zombies.

There were one-eyed zombies that emitted red beams, flying zombies with membrane wings, zombies that seemed to have escaped from a zoo, such as giant zombie tigers, and zombie lion packs that dominated a territory...

Of course, these powerful zombies also provided Zheng Yi with a large number of precious crystal nuclei for his cultivation.

...

Three months later, in the apocalypse world.

Gathering place.

Zombie flesh factory workshop number three, zombie bone storage room.

In front of Zheng Yi were various zombie crystal nuclei, although the quantity this time was fewer, the quality had greatly improved.

Behind him, however, were piles and piles of bones, forming a small mountain.

Although these bones had a humanoid shape, each one was deformed, with bone spurs growing out and tailbones being the most common occurrence. Some were as tall as two to three meters, while others resembled crawling animals.

Without exception, these bones contained extremely peculiar zombie evolutionary energy.

All of them were zombie skeletons that had been processed by the flesh factory during this period.

"The Bone Demon Path is an important sect in the Dayi Immortal Domain. Among them, beast bones are the worst, human bones are second, and cultivator bones are the best. But for thousands of years, I'm probably the first person to cultivate using zombie skeletons."

"According to reason, all zombies have undergone powerful mutations and evolutions. Since the zombie crystal nuclei contain such pure life energy, it doesn't make sense for the zombie skeletons to be useless. Even if they are not as good as the remains of local cultivators in the Dayi Immortal Domain, they are still much stronger than ordinary mortals..."

"Most importantly, in the Dayi Immortal Domain, whether it's mortal bones or cultivator bones, obtaining them requires a price. But in this apocalypse world, I have a continuous supply of zombie skeletons..."

"Although the effect of a single zombie skeleton is not significant, if I refine ten thousand or one million zombie skeletons, how powerful will my Bone Armor cultivation become? Just thinking about it makes me excited!"
