Great Demon Leader: Start By Refining Flying Zombies

Chapter 30: Body Possession

"Oh no!"

Liang Xiao's face turned pale with terror. In the instant that the discarded husk resurrected, alarm bells rang in his mind, but it was too late.

He saw two clusters of phosphorescent flames in the eyes of the discarded husk suddenly burst out and merge into a green fireball, heading straight for Liang Xiao's face. Its speed was indescribable in words.

"I can't dodge it, absolutely can't dodge it. I'm finished!"

Liang Xiao's eyes were about to burst, but he didn't even have time to shout in anger. No matter how fiercely he urged his body in his heart, compared to that green fireball, he was as slow as a snail.

"Hmm... How come it's a Four Spiritual Roots aptitude? What a waste. I guess I'll keep you as food!"

Suddenly, the green fire hesitated for a moment, and then grazed Liang Xiao's crown.

Immediately after, it moved towards Qin Long's position, causing the entire green fireball to flicker as if it had discovered something surprising.

"Kekeke, Wind Spiritual Roots, this little girl has an exceptional aptitude. Oh, and she also possesses a special physique - the Wondrous Sword Heavenly Sound Body. Nascent Soul is within reach, Nascent Soul is within reach!"

"What a great opportunity. Looks like I, the Hundred Tribulations Daoist, will become a woman!"

Then, that extremely eerie green fireball swiftly traced a path in the air and directly entered Qin Long's crown.

This time, Liang Xiao saw clearly that the center of the green fireball was a severely damaged Gold Core.

This old ghost is a cultivator at the Gold Core stage, attempting to possess someone!

"Help me... Ah!"

Qin Long's eyes trembled. Just as he raised his hand and looked at Liang Xiao with a desperate gaze, his whole body froze as if struck by lightning. Threads of green flames burst out of his seven orifices, creating an extremely horrifying scene.

"Qin Long!"

Liang Xiao clenched his fists, his face filled with an unpleasant expression as he watched this scene. His thoughts changed dozens of times in an instant as he analyzed the situation.

Unbelievable. This old ghost actually claimed to be a cultivator from the Myriad Demons Cave. Could it be a monster that survived from the sect's great battle over four hundred years ago?

No, the lifespan of a cultivator at the Gold Core stage is only five hundred years at most. Unless this person achieved Core Formation in just a few decades, the timeline doesn't match up at all.

Furthermore, considering the empty Earth Fire Great Hall that should have been filled with treasures...

Liang Xiao instantly confirmed that the Hundred Tribulations Daoist must be a latecomer who broke through the formation and defensive measures in the hall and plundered its resources.

However, due to unknown reasons, he almost perished and left behind a Gold Core, waiting for an opportunity here.

"Do I have to run? It seems like that's the only option now. Take advantage of the time the Hundred Tribulations Daoist is trying to possess Qin Long and leave quickly!"

Liang Xiao thought of the old ghost's previous threat to use him as food. While feeling extreme anger, he couldn't help but feel a trace of fear because of his own weakness.

Just then, Qin Long's body emitted a sword light, and an illusory Sword Intent resounded, causing the raging green flames in his seven orifices to recede, restoring his sanity.

"Qin Long, are you okay?"

Liang Xiao was greatly surprised, but when he saw Qin Long's still fearful expression, his heart sank. He knew it probably wasn't that simple.

Sure enough, Qin Long urgently said, "I have a special physique and have cultivated a technique to enhance my spirit. At this moment, I can only temporarily regain control of my body. If this continues, I will definitely be devoured by that old ghost and have my body taken over!"

"But I can't help you..."

Liang Xiao shook his head bitterly, unconsciously taking two steps back because he noticed Qin Long's face gradually distorting. The green flames that had been temporarily suppressed began to surge again.

Qin Long stared at Liang Xiao with a pleading look and said with difficulty, "Don't... don't leave. I have... a method to kill a Spirit Body!"

After speaking, a golden-red jade slip flew out from his storage bag. It was surrounded by the majestic and noble image of a divine bird, truly extraordinary.

Liang Xiao took a look and his body trembled. It seemed that Qin Long's inheritance was not as simple as she had casually mentioned.

This was actually the true transmission of the Heavenly Sun Mountain - the upper volume of the Golden Crow Refining Sun Technique!

"In this true transmission of the Dao, there is a spell that can summon the true fire of the sun. With your cultivation, you might be able to summon a trace of true fire, and then I will release your sea of consciousness... Ahh!"

Before Qin Long could finish speaking, a green flame reignited in her left eye.

At the same time, the eerie and unpredictable voice of Daoist Baijie resounded once again.

"Evil brat, do not be fooled by this little girl's Dao. The true fire of the sun is an authentic high-level spell. With your Qi Refining cultivation at the third level, you will only end up burning yourself. It's better to protect the old ancestor."

"I am an elder of the Myriad Demons Cave's inner sect. Once I return to the Myriad Demons Cave, I will accept you as my true transmission disciple and pass on to you the supreme Demon Dao technique!"

"Fellow Daoist Gui Ying, do not believe him... do not believe him, don't..."

Qin Long also realized that Liang Xiao and this old ghost had a deep connection, they were fellow disciples. Her eyes dimmed instantly, and her pleading tone became increasingly faint.

She felt completely hopeless, unable to think of any reason to persuade the man beside her to help her resist a mysterious and powerful Gold Core stage cultivator.

"Old ancestor, will you really accept me as your personal disciple?"

Sure enough, Liang Xiao put away the jade slip of the true transmission technique, lowered his head, and asked with a hopeful expression.

"Hmph, as a Gold Core stage cultivator who has roamed the world for hundreds of years, the old ancestor would not stoop to deceive a Qi Refining stage brat like you!"

"Uh, then what about the blood sacrifice?"

"Naturally, it was a joke. Even a tiger does not eat its own cubs, how could the old ancestor engage in infighting with fellow disciples? Don't think too much about it, just protect the law!"

"Oh, so that's how it is..."

Liang Xiao raised his head expressionlessly, without a trace of flattery on his face.

With a thought, Pandora, who was by his side, suddenly took a step forward, picked up the spiritual sword that Qin Long had dropped, and vigorously flapped her wings. She flew up to the dome and swung the sword with unmatched strength, instantly slashing out more than ten strikes.

There was no technique, just brute force, and she didn't care whether the spiritual sword would be worn out.

There were no defensive formations inside the Earth Fire Great Hall, and it had also experienced hundreds of years of wind and rain. Even if it was made of solid materials, it couldn't withstand such destruction.

In the end, the spiritual sword broke into pieces, and the debris from the dome scattered everywhere. The dome was torn apart by the Flying Zombie, like a demolition machine, leaving a large hole!

Boom!

A beam of sunlight projected down, shining directly on the young cultivator who was concentrating on his hand seals.

At this moment, Liang Xiao's full-powered mana fluctuation broke through the hairpin that bound his hair, and between the dancing black and white hair, a pair of bright eyes flickered with a mocking expression.

"How dare you mock me!"

Daoist Baijie's voice was gloomy, but he showed no signs of panic. It seemed that victory was within his grasp.

"How could I dare to believe you? Even a tiger does not eat its own cubs, but the Demon Dao elder is probably a hundred or a thousand times more poisonous than a man-eating tiger!"

Liang Xiao sneered. He hadn't paid any attention to Daoist Baijie's promise at all. He had secretly read the true transmission technique from the jade slip in his pocket long ago.

However, he was not feeling well at the moment. Ever since he used the hand seal to summon the true fire of the sun, his mana surged out like a floodgate had been opened. In the end, even his essence and life force were sucked away together!

Although there was a faint gathering of firepower within the beam of sunlight, the air gradually became scorching.

But at this rate, it was definitely not enough to summon the true fire of the sun. Liang Xiao would turn into a dried-up corpse.

"Hmph, you brought this upon yourself. It saves me the trouble of cleaning up the sect!"

Seeing this, Daoist Baijie completely relaxed and focused on suppressing Qin Long's spirit in her sea of consciousness.

"Young girl, I have underestimated you. At such a young age, your spirit is truly resilient. The true fire of the sun is extremely fierce and yang, capable of annihilating the spirit body. Do you want to perish together with me?"

"Unfortunately, you have chosen the wrong treasure. Hehehe!"

Within Qin Long's body, the two spiritual forces clashed incessantly. Apart from Pandora, no one paid any attention to Liang Xiao's movements.

With the perspective of a Gold Core stage cultivator, Daoist Baijie would never make a wrong judgment. Liang Xiao could not possibly summon even a trace of the true fire of the sun and would undoubtedly perish!
