I Have A Dual World Seal-Chapter 708 Fierce Battle with the Giant Corpse and Reinforcements Arrived
"Hurry!"
Lu Zheng hastily formed a seal technique, pointing his finger toward the ground.
Earth-to-Steel!
The spell acquired from the old beggar finally came in handy. It directly used magical power to imprison the land, transforming it into solid steel, impenetrable and impassable with the Earth Travel Technique.
Sensing the land's change, the giant corpse had no choice but to break open the ground with magical power and jump out. However, Lu Zheng's spell casting was a bit slow, so the giant corpse had already leapt over Shen Ying's Peach Blossom Evil, appearing not far from Yi Xiaoqian.
"Earth-to-Steel?" The giant corpse glanced at Lu Zheng with a heavy expression, then turned and smiled sinisterly at Yi Xiaoqian.
"Too slow. Come here!"
The giant corpse grinned savagely and reached out to grab Yi Xiaoqian. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
Yi Xiaoqian, as if being stared down by a prehistoric beast, couldn't move a muscle and was frozen in place.
At that moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Yi Xiaoqian. Three fox tail illusions appeared abruptly behind them and swept forward in unison, blocking the advance of the giant hand.
"Yue Yao! Get them out quickly!"
Liu Qingyan shouted urgently. Behind her, Du Yueyao immediately grabbed Yi Xiaoqian and Wang Xiaowan with both hands and quickly retreated.
They had the wisdom to understand that the giant corpse was terrifyingly powerful and that lingering here would only be a burden. It was better to stay clear of the battlefield and give Lu Zheng and others room to act.
"A fox demon?" The giant corpse's eyes narrowed, surprised at how such a small county had all kinds of demons and monsters.
But still…
"Not even a cultivation of five hundred, and yet you dare to block my way?"
The giant corpse grinned savagely, exerting force with its massive hands. Corpse Qi surged like a torrent, causing a trickle of blood to spill from the corner of Liu Qingyan's mouth.
The corpse's Qi was so robust that Liu Qingyan was lightly injured immediately upon contact.
So strong!
However, Liu Qingyan's demon power surged, and though she retreated three steps, the three fox tails remained firmly blocking the giant corpse's path.
"How bold!"
Just as the giant corpse roared furiously, preparing to strike Liu Qingyan aside with force, it suddenly felt a chilling aura above its head, making its heart tremble.
"Hmm? Thunder Technique!"
"Qingwei Yu Chen, Taiyi Five Thunders, boom!"
The giant corpse narrowed its eyes, forcefully waved its hands to push back Liu Qingyan, then clenched its fists, channeling Corpse Qi into them, and smashed toward the thunder above.
"Boom! Boom!"
Under the Taiyi Five Thunder Curse, Corpse Qi scattered. The giant corpse retracted its fists, seeing slight scorch marks on them.
"Not bad!" The giant corpse grinned, its ugly face becoming even more sinister.
"Impressive!" Lu Zheng smirked grimly, gathering True Qi as he continued to weave seal techniques with his hands. Several more Taiyi Five Thunder Curses descended from the sky.
The giant corpse was enveloped in Corpse Qi. Though naturally restrained by thunder, its profound cultivation allowed it to forcibly endure Lu Zheng's Taiyi Five Thunder Curse, still trying to advance toward Yi Xiaoqian.
Liu Qingyan wiped the blood from her mouth, her eyes sharpening. Reaching out, moonlight descended from the clear sky.
She merged with the moonlight, her figure becoming a blur as she instantly arrived beside Du Yueyao and others, just in time to intercept before the giant corpse could grab Yi Xiaoqian. The fox tail illusion flickered, wrapping the three women inside, instantly pulling them away from the battlefield, retreating far north.
The giant corpse's huge hand grasped empty air and bellowed with rage, just as it was about to give chase, it saw another burly man in emerald robes appear — it was Yue Honghai.
"Die!" Yue Honghai wielded both a steel whip and a serrated saber, striking at the giant corpse's head.
At the same time, Shen Ying also cast the Peach Blossom Evil again, filling the air with pink miasma, trapping the giant corpse within the City God Temple's boundaries.
Lu Zheng floated high up, continuously hurling down Taiyi Five Thunder Curses as if they cost nothing, filling the entire Tonglin County with the sound of thunderclaps.
Using the same strategy as before against Gu Changtian; each had their responsibilities to entrap and slay the giant corpse.
Countless citizens looked on, startled, in the direction of the City God Temple, at the swirling pink miasma and the sudden claps of thunder amidst the clear day, feeling a mix of chaos and alarm, not knowing what was happening.
"Where did you provoke this fellow from?"
While fighting, Lu Zheng asked, knowing that this giant corpse was far more powerful than the previous Flower Cloud Sect expert, particularly due to its formidable Corpse Qi and seemingly steel-like corpse body, providing defense well beyond its inherent strength.
"I have no idea, it just suddenly appeared," Yue Honghai said helplessly. "Darn, I'll never go to the Netherworld again, how come there are experts everywhere?"
They were helpless, unaware that the giant corpse they had trapped was equally shocked.
An advanced Dao-practicing demon, a magically potent Incense and Candle God, and a Daoist not much weaker than himself.
More importantly, they even knew how to counter the Earth Travel Technique with Earth-to-Steel?
It was acknowledged that for centuries, he had roamed the Netherworld unopposed, relying on the traceless Earth Travel Technique to pursue or flee without fail.
So when he first discovered quite a few capable opponents, he had not intended to fight a prolonged battle but intended to abduct the female ghost with Earth Travel Technique and leave.
After all, the mortal world was not the Netherworld. No matter how confident he was, he did not dare to cause unrestricted destruction and remain for long in the mortal realm.
Unexpectedly, the ambush failed. Rather than capturing the female ghost, he was trapped within the City God Temple.
Breaking through was not impossible, yet it would deplete his magical power and take time, potentially facing more than just these three by then.
In all calculations, it seemed his only option was to retreat back to the Netherworld.
Ah? That seems feasible too?
The giant corpse's eyes lit up; although he couldn't beat the combined strength of these three, they also couldn't defeat him. In such a situation, how can one guard against him for a thousand days?
The giant corpse coldly laughed, then retreated into the City God Temple.
"Heh heh heh! You've provoked me, and I won't rest until I've secured that pure female ghost. Let's see how long you can protect her!"
Lu Zheng's eyes narrowed, turning to Xin Zhanting, who was gathering ghost soldiers for support, "Brother Xin, seal the Yin-Yang Road, don't let him return!"
Xin Zhanting smiled bitterly, "Brother, this giant corpse is too powerful, we can't seal it!"
"Hahaha!"
The giant corpse revealed a grotesque smile toward Lu Zheng, reaching out to tear open the path between the two realms and return to the Netherworld.
But just as he extended his hand, he saw a raggedly dressed, gray-robed old monk standing not far before him.
"Hmm?" The giant corpse's eyes narrowed, not having noticed when this old monk appeared.
Lu Zheng, Shen Ying, and Yue Honghai also simultaneously froze, not knowing how the old monk got to the center of the City God Temple.
But…
They knew very well that an ally had arrived.
"Amitabha Buddha!"
The old monk clasped his hands together, chanting a Buddhist mantra, and in an instant, Buddha Light filled the entire City God Temple.
