471: Is it the aura of corpses or the aura of death?

Chapter 471: Corpse Qi or Death Qi?

Currently, rescue teams from all sides have successively arrived.

Everyone is dealing with the vast number of Flesh and Blood Demon Gods, and the live broadcast content is highly homogenized with no particular focus.

Although everyone is here for disaster relief, finding the key points of the battle can not only increase viewership but also allow the public to further understand the situation in the disaster zone.

This is a mandatory lesson for every war correspondent.

In summary, it's one sentence: learn to find the key points.

A moment later, the group arrived at the battle zone where the main force of the Dengfeng Dojo was located, which was the Yaoyang City No. 7 Earth God Temple Farm.

At this moment, the Dengfeng Dojo team had already established a temporary base using the No. 7 Earth God Temple Farm as its foundation.

"What is that...?"

Wu Xian's attention was immediately drawn to the several defensive towers on the edge of the position.

It's one thing for Alliance heroes to appear in this world, but what in the world are defensive towers?

"Magic turrets, very good defensive structures," Bai Shiqi calmly introduced. "As you know, our Dengfeng Dojo's system is quite diverse, and we also dabble in artifacts and engineering facilities.

Brother Liu's Family has a collateral branch that specializes in this."

Hearing Bai Shiqi's words, Liu Chao couldn't help but straighten his back proudly, feeling quite self-satisfied.

"How powerful is it?" Wu Xian asked curiously.

"It's quite good. The highest-grade gold scroll turret can basically rival the top-tier hot weapons of the Mechanical Dojo," Bai Shiqi said. "The only drawback is that it cannot move, and its range is somewhat limited, but as a defensive structure, it's still very good."

Wu Xian clicked his tongue and nodded.

If defensive towers are out, then isn't the spring water also possible?

"Magic power device?" Wu Xian feigned an innocent query, "Then is there a magic device that can heal injuries and also attack?"

"Are you talking about magic spring water? There's some over there," Bai Shiqi pointed in the direction of the field hospital, "but currently, it can only be used to treat injured personnel and painting spirits, and has no offensive capabilities."

At this moment, Liu Chao spoke with a strange expression, "How did you know my Family is researching a turret module for magic spring water?"

"Uh, I just said it casually." Wu Xian chuckled, "Combining attack and healing in one, it sounds amazing."

Seeing the few people chatting enthusiastically, Zhao Qinghe said somewhat impatiently, "Alright, what's the use of talking about this? Solving the problem quickly is the key."

At this moment, they could already feel the fierce battle to the northwest of the position, and the monstrous Evil Qi.

"By the way, are these magic devices expensive to build?" Wu Xian said excitedly, "I'm planning to get a set for the Club as well."

"The cost is alright, Wu Xian can definitely afford it," Bai Shiqi said with a smile.

"What?" Liu Chao said sarcastically, "My Liu Family's things, you say sell and they sell?"

It wasn't that he didn't want to sell, but because Bai Shiqi was close to Wu Xian, he had a childish hostility towards Wu Xian.

"..."

Bai Shiqi looked a little helpless and silently shut up.

From his understanding of Liu Chao, if he continued to interfere, this matter wouldn't succeed.

But he knew very well how many good things Wu Xian had, so he secretly winked at Liu Chao and explained the situation to him through Divine Thought transmission.

"Really?" Liu Chao looked doubtful, "A spiritual item with a 1.5 times Cultivation amplification, and it's just a rubbing? What? The Spirit Gathering Pill from the Wanrong Chamber of Commerce was also made by him?"

After a series of shocks, Liu Chao silently remained calm and composed, "I wonder how many Brother Wu needs? What price is he willing to offer?"

"The price is negotiable."

Wu Xian curled his lips into a smile, naturally noticing the eye contact between Bai Shiqi and Liu Chao.

He had originally thought these two were sworn enemies, but now it seemed more like a bickering couple.

"Add me on WeChat, we'll discuss it in detail later."

Liu Chao enthusiastically exchanged contact information with Wu Xian.

Zhao Qinghe, who was accompanying them, watched everything with a strange expression.

How did he end up being isolated while they were chatting?

Given the rivalry between Liu Chao and Bai Shiqi, shouldn't they be on his side, full of hostility towards Wu Xian?

How did they become sworn brothers with Wu Xian in the blink of an eye?

Was Wu Xian's charm really that great?

In terms of looks, in terms of temperament, where was he inferior to Wu Xian?

Thinking of this, Zhao Qinghe felt an inexplicable irritation in his heart, a kind of frustration from being completely outclassed by Wu Xian.

He, a dignified Scion of Noble Families, was inferior in every way to a country bumpkin from the lower class. Where could he even begin to complain?

"Speaking of which, the power of this Evil God is indeed not simple," Zhao Qinghe tried to interject, "From the moment we stepped into Yaoyang City, our bodies have felt a faint, inexplicable discomfort, very strange."

"Discomfort?" Bai Shiqi and Liu Chao looked at Zhao Qinghe in confusion, "No wonder Brother Qinghe looks unwell."

Zhao Qinghe, seeing this, couldn't help but wonder, "What, don't you have this feeling?"

Liu Chao shook his head, "Only the assimilation power of the Flesh and Blood Evil Force is a bit annoying, but it's fine if you isolate it with spiritual power and defensive measures."

"Really? None of you?" Zhao Qinghe was a bit dumbfounded.

"No, we don't," Bai Shiqi shook his head, "Could it be that Brother Qinghe himself has a problem? Or has he been targeted by that Flesh and Blood Demon God?"

Zhao Qinghe was both surprised and doubtful, falling into self-doubt.

Wu Xian, with an unchanging expression, helped analyze, "An Undead System Scroll Master, after all, deals with Law power related to death. Perhaps there was a deviation in his Law comprehension, causing some hidden dangers to himself?

Or, is the effect of the distorted pollution starting to manifest? After all, the distorted pollution here is still very serious."

Bai Shiqi and Liu Chao nodded in agreement with the analysis, "Makes sense."

"..."

Zhao Qinghe's face was ashen, and he also thought it was due to the distorted pollution.

After all, Yaoyang City itself was heavily polluted, and now with the collapse of Yaoyang City and the invasion of the Evil God, the invisible distorted pollution would only become more severe.

It seemed that after returning, he would have to go to the hospital for a thorough check-up.

"Young Master Zhao still needs to pay attention to his health," Wu Xian said with concern, "If he gets sick during the disaster relief, I would feel bad."

"No matter ~ it's just a mere distortion illness," Zhao Qinghe waved his hand dismissively, "Nothing to fear."

"Man!"

Wu Xian gave a thumbs up, chuckling inwardly.

Hope you can remain this strong later on.

As they spoke, the battle against the Evil God Servant was already close at hand.

The Evil God Servant's Realm was quite high; he had already merged with the evil scroll, and with the blessing of the Flesh and Blood Demon God, his strength was even more astonishing.

He looked like a human-shaped monster with a deformed body, covered in wriggling fleshy barbs. When these barbs were activated, they would transform into fleshy tentacles.

However, unlike the tentacles that grew from flesh and blood tissue, the tentacles on his body also had dense, sharp teeth and emitted a strong, evil aura of death.

It resembled some kind of evil scroll of the Undead System.

At this moment, this Evil God Servant had been surrounded by the powerhouses of the Dengfeng Dojo and was being steadily suppressed.

Facing the encirclement by the Dengfeng Dojo's powerhouses, he counterattacked frantically, letting out bursts of painful roars and growls, "You Dengfeng Dojo ants, all of you go to hell!

Hahaha, you can't kill me!

The debts from back then, you all have to repay them to me with interest today.

But don't worry, after you die, I will treat your scrolls well, hahaha..."

Wu Xian couldn't help but ask, "What's the situation with this Evil God Scroll Master? Does he have a grudge with your Dengfeng Dojo?"

"The last time he caused trouble, it was our Dengfeng Dojo that suppressed and severely injured him," Liu Chao explained. "Although he ultimately escaped, we crippled him to within an inch of his life.

Even the forces he secretly cultivated and developed back then were completely wiped out by our fathers."

Wu Xian understood, "He looks like some kind of evil scroll of the Undead System."

"It's not a purely Undead System evil scroll, but the proportion of Undead System evil power is indeed very large," Liu Chao nodded. "I was just about to go over there and ask the Undead Dojo for help."

"So that's how it is," Zhao Qinghe understood, "Then you've certainly found the right person."

After speaking, a confident smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

If he could help solve this problem, he would naturally gain the favor and goodwill of the Dengfeng Dojo, and also be able to demonstrate the strength of his Zhao Family to the general public, gaining a wave of reputation and prestige.

It was just that having Wu Xian by his side made him a little uncomfortable.

To avoid being upstaged by Wu Xian, Zhao Qinghe rushed forward immediately, "All Seniors of the Dengfeng Dojo, do not panic, Junior is here to assist you—!"

"Oh, isn't that the Zhao Family's kid?" The Dengfeng Dojo members were pleasantly surprised and astonished.

"The Zhao Family's Undead System scrolls might be able to suppress that evil Death Qi."

"In this aspect, the Undead Dojo is ultimately more professional."

Although they had severely injured this Evil God Scroll Master back then, things were different now. His power was much stronger than before, and with the blessing of the Evil God, he was no longer comparable.

That evil Death Qi simply couldn't be suppressed; even a little bit adhering to one's body would require a large amount of spiritual power to counteract, otherwise, it would cause great harm to the body.

Currently, some of the injured by that Death Qi had already developed varying degrees of necrosis, and it was an irreversible kind of necrosis.

Flesh, bones, skin, as long as they were infected by that Death Qi, they would fundamentally lose their vitality.

It was even more severe than the physical necrosis caused by distorted pollution.

"Power at the death level?" Zhao Qinghe analyzed seriously, "Normally, any death power can be suppressed by our Yellow Springs water. Let me give it a try."

With that, he opened his divine scroll above his head and summoned the Yellow Springs Ugly Woman to join the battle.

Whoosh... The familiar dark river emerged beneath the Yellow Springs Ugly Woman's feet, attempting to suppress the evil Death Qi of the Evil God Servant.

Facts proved that the Zhao Family's "Yellow Springs River" still had some substance, at least in terms of the weight of some related Law powers, it was very high.

Under the washing of the Yellow Springs River water, the Death Qi permeating the battlefield was continuously absorbed and devoured.

"What bizarre Death Qi!" Although effective, Zhao Qinghe's expression was solemn, because he could clearly feel a strange impurity growing within the power of the Yellow Springs River water, "Please, everyone, lean against my Yellow Springs River water, it's best to let the Yellow Springs water soak your entire body."

Seeing this, the Dengfeng Dojo members all began to bathe in the Yellow Springs River water.

After feeling the powerful effects of the Yellow Springs River water, they were all overjoyed and their morale greatly increased.

"Where did this brat come from? Get lost—!"

The Evil God Servant's face turned ugly, and he instinctively moved to attack Zhao Qinghe, but was intercepted by the Dengfeng powerhouses.

And with Zhao Qinghe's assistance, the Dengfeng powerhouses launched a full-scale suppression and attack.

Although they couldn't kill the opponent, severely injuring him would suffice, and then they could use the power of the Yellow Springs River water to suppress and seal him.

"Amazing, it seems I didn't find the wrong person!" Liu Chao exclaimed with delight.

In this situation, Zhao Qinghe couldn't help but feel smug, and he cast a provocative glance at Wu Xian, "I heard that your Underworld also has a Yellow Springs. I wonder if it has such effects?"

Wu Xian, however, frowned and answered irrelevantly, "Corpse Qi, right?"

"What Corpse Qi?" Bai Shiqi was stunned, "That kind of Corpse Qi unique to zombie and ghoul-type scrolls? It does seem a bit similar, but it also seems more powerful and more bizarre than the Corpse Qi I remember."

As the author of the Mummy series, Bai Shiqi naturally had some understanding of the power of Corpse Qi.

"Exactly, a super strong Corpse Qi." Wu Xian nodded solemnly.

The moment he arrived, he immediately sensed that the "Death Qi" was not merely Death Qi, but a Corpse Qi that had been greatly enhanced by evil power.

And Corpse Qi itself already carries certain Undead System attributes.

To put it simply, this evil scroll was essentially an evil zombie, or rather, a zombie Evil God.

It's just that this kind of evil zombie was clearly different from conventional zombies.

"What Corpse Qi?" Zhao Qinghe scoffed, "In the end, isn't it still firmly suppressed by the Yellow Springs River water?"

Wu Xian chuckled inwardly, too lazy to bother with him.

In his opinion, Zhao Qinghe's Yellow Springs River water had only refined the components related to "Death Qi," but it had not resolved the unique power and nature of "Corpse Qi."

Sure enough, not long after, Zhao Qinghe's expression changed drastically.

Liu Chao, beside him, also exclaimed, "What's going on, Brother Qinghe, your Yellow Springs River..."

They saw that in the Yellow Springs River water flowing across the battlefield, from some unknown point, floating fragments of corpses began to emerge, emitting a strange aura, and starting to counter-infect the Yellow Springs River and the power of the Yellow Springs Ugly Woman.

"Damn it, how could this happen?"

Zhao Qinghe, greatly alarmed, quickly reined in the power of the Yellow Springs River water, attempting to expel that force, but it was futile.

The Yellow Springs Ugly Woman, contaminated by the Corpse Qi, began to grow necrotic flesh. This necrotic flesh, like some kind of poison, grew and spread throughout the Yellow Springs Ugly Woman's painting spirit body.

In his desperation, Zhao Qinghe hurriedly communicated with and summoned the power of the Undead Divine Domain.

However, it seemed something was wrong with the Undead Divine Domain; the great Mother Goddess Izanami did not respond to his plea and summons.

"What's wrong with Mother Goddess? Is the Family doing something?"

Seeing the Yellow Springs Ugly Woman about to undergo her third collapse, Zhao Qinghe was frantic.

"Um... do you need help?" Wu Xian offered, "My thunder Law power can, to some extent, curb the power of Corpse Qi, but directly striking your Yellow Springs Ugly Woman might cause considerable damage to her."

"..."

Zhao Qinghe's expression stiffened, his heart filled with indecision.

But at this moment, the Yellow Springs Ugly Woman's situation was like being poisoned; he either had to steel himself and 'amputate' to prevent the poison from spreading and worsening, or he could only wait for death.

In such a situation, Wu Xian shouldn't intentionally strike his Yellow Springs Ugly Woman to death, right?

Even if she might be struck to death, there was still a glimmer of hope. If he let the Corpse Qi spread, he would only be waiting for death.

Moreover, that bizarre Corpse Qi seemed to be invading his Sea of Consciousness Void Realm along the Yellow Springs Ugly Woman's Law Veins.
