Chapter 964: Corpse Clan Invasion
part of her body, especially in her chest, where it was excruciating.She knew her sternum was fractured."This Fang Yu... is indeed not an ordinary warrior. No wonder Wang specifically wants him to be..."Put it on." Fang Yu said.
Ji Ru Mei was taken aback, and when she looked down, she realized she was still wearing that one-piece swimsuit.
As it turns out, she had been talking to Fang Yu in that posture this whole time...
Ji Ru Mei only felt her cheeks burning, and the roots of her ears were tinged red.
"Thank you..." Ji Ruimei took the clothing from Fang Yu's hands, her head lowered, her voice a mere whisper.
But at this time, Fang Yu had already walked forward.
Ji Rumei raised her head, glanced at Fang Yu's back, and then looked down at the clothes in her hands.
This is Mr. Fang's clothes...
The blush on Ji Ruomei's face became even more pronounced.
But at this moment, she saw Fang Yu walking farther and farther away. She quickly got up and put on the clothes Fang Yu had given her.
After getting dressed, Ji Ruomei ran towards Fang Yu.
After catching up, Ji Ruimei discovered the void-devouring beast lying on Fang Yu's shoulder. Her eyes changed slightly, and she was about to ask.
"Boom..."
At that moment, the ground shook violently!
Ji Rumei stumbled and fell to the ground for a moment.
Fang Yu looked up at the mountain road ahead, his eyes flickering slightly.
He turned his head and saw Ji Rumei getting up.
Fang Yu's figure flashed, and he came to Ji Ruimei's side, grabbing her tightly. Then, he used his true energy and stepped directly onto the cliff beside the stone gate, heading upwards.
Ji Ru Mei's eyes were tightly closed, her lips pressed together in a tight line, struggling to contain a scream.
She knew deep down that her presence here was already a burden and she couldn't possibly add to Fang Yu's troubles.
Fang Yu held Ji Ruimei in one hand and, at a halfway point on the mountain, discovered a small cave recessed into the hillside.
This cave is extremely hidden and seems to have been man-made.
Fang Yu didn't think much, and brought Ji Ruimei into the small cave.
But the moment Fang Yu loosened his grip, Ji Rumei, even with both feet planted firmly on the ground, still felt her legs go weak.
She instinctively reached out with both hands and wrapped them around Fang Yu's arm.
Fang Yu turned his head and glanced at Ji Rumei.
At this moment, Ji Rumei also happened to look at him.
Their eyes met.
Ji Rumei's eyes held both fear and shyness.
But Fang Yu's eyes... showed a dazed look.
Looking at Ji Ru Mei before me, she resembles Leng Xun Shuang from my memory even more.
Fang Yu remembered that when he first met Ji Ru Mei, he only felt seven or eight points similar. But upon closer inspection, both in appearance and temperament, there were obvious differences.
As time passed... Ji Ruimei's figure gradually overlapped with the memory of Leng Xun.
What is the reason for this
Logically speaking, a person's appearance rarely undergoes drastic changes after reaching adulthood.
Furthermore, Fang Yu and Ji Rumei haven't known each other for very long, and they haven't met very often.
But every time we meet, it feels different.
Is this Fang Yu's own feelings that are the problem, or is there another reason
At this moment, Fang Yu recalled Lin Batian's evaluation of Ji Rumei when he had first seen her.
At that time, Lin Batten... seemed to say that Ji Ruimei was very similar to Leng Xunduang, and even suspected that Ji Ruimei was Leng Xunduang.
So, Fang Yu felt that there was no problem.
But what is the reason for this
Ji Ruomei was born into the wealthy Ji family of Jiangnan, the only daughter of Ji Dongshan. As a young lady from a merchant family, she had never practiced martial arts and showed no interest in doing so.
Back then, Leng Xinshuang, born into an ordinary peasant family, showed astonishing cultivation talent from birth. She was discovered by Jiu Elder of Canglan Sect, a second-rank sect at the time, and taken as his disciple. Subsequently, Leng Xinshuang lived up to her talent and became the chief disciple within Canglan Sect.
The two people's life trajectories had absolutely nothing in common.
Moreover, the time between their occurrences is also separated by two thousand years.
Rebirth
Compared to this statement, Fang Yu would rather believe it was a coincidence.
It's getting increasingly like that... but I can't explain it.
"Boom!"
"Hold the line! We must hold the line!"
Then, another wave of raucous roars echoed.
Fang Yu's thoughts were interrupted, and she looked down directly.
At some point in time, a procession of cultivators dressed in blue robes appeared on the road that had once been empty.
This group of people's attire is vastly different from what we see today, and it differs greatly from the cultivation world of that era as well.
It can be seen that this is clothing from ancient times.
Fang Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the group of cultivators.
At this moment, the group of cultivators were intently staring ahead.
Fang Yu shifted his gaze, his eyes flickering.
Before Shimen, that is, the location where Fang Yu and Ji Rumei were previously, a large group of alien creatures appeared.
These creatures have four limbs and stand on the ground, but their bodies are a brownish-green color. Their heads, faces, and torsos are covered in rotting wounds, making them extremely disgusting to look at.
They lumbered towards the stone gate, their bodies towering.
"So much death energy... it's a bit like the Immortals, but their appearance is even more hideous." Fang Yu thought.
Ji Rumei followed Fang Yu's gaze to the group of alien creatures, her face paling instantly. She turned her head away and closed her eyes tightly, refusing to look any further.
“Junior brothers, we must hold the gate. We absolutely cannot let these hordes of zombie creatures reach the mountaintop, or else… it would be unimaginable!” The blue-clothed cultivator at the front bellowed.
This band of monks numbered only fourteen.
And the creatures known as the Corpse Clan numbered at least over a hundred.
There is a huge difference in quantity.
How can this be kept safe
Fang Yu looked at the situation below, his brows furrowed.
He's thinking about... what's happening right now.
He entered an ancient relic.
But within the ancient ruins, such a scene suddenly appeared.
The creatures below are targeting the Xu Zhen Sect, not this outsider who has trespassed into the ruins.
This is different from what's found in other ruins.
But these cultivators below, and the so-called Corpse race beings, all appeared suddenly...
They are certainly not living beings, most likely just illusions or phantoms.
This reminded Fang Yu of the last time he entered the ancient ruins, the towering python...and the phantoms of all sorts of creatures attacking the towering python.
"This is the scene that the person who left this relic wanted later generations to see," Fang Yu narrowed his eyes, thought to himself.
"Boom!"
At this point, the fighting had already begun below.
That group of cultivators began using various spells to attack the corpse clan ahead.
Their cultivation level is probably around the Nascent Soul stage, which is already quite good.
But their attacks, bombarding these hordes of corpses, seemed unable to inflict any fatal damage.
This horde of zombies may have been blasted with holes in their bodies, but they kept moving, still lumbering down the mountain road!
In this way, these cultivators had consumed most of their true qi, yet not a single corpse creature had been eliminated.
And just as this group of cultivators were exhausted, the Corpse Clan suddenly launched an attack.
They either run or jump, closing in directly.
"Beware! The crushing force of these Corpsekin is highly poisonous and corrosive. Once touched, your flesh will melt away!" someone shouted.
But even so, they were no match for the overwhelming number of zombies rushing in close.
A foul odor wafted out.
As any normal person, one would find it hard to stomach this sight.
Ji Ruomei's eyes were originally tightly shut, but hearing the strange noises below, she couldn't help but open them and take a glance...
Then, she could no longer bear it and covered her chest, retching.
Fang Yu frowned slightly, stood up inside the cave, and looked upward.
At this moment, the sound from below vanished.
On closer inspection, the corpses and the disgusting liquid on the ground had vanished.
The scene was restored to its original state.
It was just an illusion after all.
"It's alright." Fang Yu turned his head to look at Ji Ruimei, whose face was pale, and said.
Ji Ru-mei peered over the edge.
As expected, the overgrown mountain path was deserted, with nothing left.
The stench in the air also vanished.
"Mr. Fang... this, what's going on" Ji Ruomei still couldn't regain her composure, asking in a trembling voice.
"The host here has invited us to watch a movie," Fang Yu said.
"Watch a movie Why would he invite us to watch a movie..." Ji Ruomei asked dumbfounded.
"This question...is what we need to investigate next." Fang Yu said.
Having said that, he then looked up at the mountain peak. nodded to Zhao Xuan."You're finally back! Where did you go just now" Tang Xiaorou asked unhappily."I went to the inner hall for food, but I still couldn't find any." Fang Yu replied.“They all said th...
