Chapter 597: Chapter 587: Dance of the Hordes of Zombies

As the white-clad female figure with an indiscernible face appeared, she even let out a strange cry as she fiercely lunged forward. Neither Shi Feng nor Xue Wuheng’s expressions changed significantly.

In their eyes, this thing posed no threat to them at all.

"Is this, a female ghost?" Xue Wuheng murmured as he looked at the white-clad female figure.

But immediately after, Xue Wuheng shook his head and said, "No, this is a Yin Corpse."

Although Xue Wuheng’s voice was low, Shi Feng still heard it, and Shi Feng said, "That’s right, a Yin Corpse, a Fourth-stage King Level Yin Corpse!"

Yin Corpses, either naturally born special from corpses or affected by their environment and location, such as places like the Yin Extreme Land, Land of Absolute Evil, or Dark Evil Place, could undergo mutations and come to life.

Ordinary Yin Corpses, limited by their innate attributes, could only evolve to a Fourth-stage King Level at most.

Like the female Yin Corpse before Shi Feng and Xue Wuheng, it was just an ordinary Yin Corpse, and reaching the Fourth-stage King Level was already her limit.

Without any accidents or the aid of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, it was basically impossible for her to advance any further.

While Shi Feng and Xue Wuheng were talking, the Yin Corpse had already lunged to their front. Shi Feng raised his right foot and kicked, landing a blow on the Yin Corpse and sending her flying with a single kick.

And just then, Shi Feng flicked his fingers, and a pale white Rune was launched from his fingertips, shooting towards the still air-bound Yin Corpse.

"Ao!" The pale white Rune hit the Yin Corpse, and the backward-flying Yin Corpse suddenly stopped in midair, letting out a strange scream with a piercing howl.

Then the Yin Corpse quickly fell silent, her body gradually drifting towards the ground.

This Yin Corpse was now imprinted by Shi Feng, completely subdued.

Originally, a Fourth-stage King Rank death creature like this should have been directly exterminated by Shi Feng. However, this was a Yin Corpse! Although it was just an ordinary King Rank Yin Corpse and its potential for growth was very limited.

But if Shi Feng collected it, and later wanted to use it to form the Formation of Ten Thousand Corpses to kill enemies, a Formation laid with Yin Corpses would be incomparably more powerful than one with ordinary corpses!

And the higher the level of the Yin Corpses, the more powerful the Formation of Ten Thousand Corpses would be! For the Nine Nether Lineage that cultivated the Formation of Ten Thousand Corpses, a Yin Corpse was undoubtedly a treasure hard to come by!

After subduing the white-clad, long-haired face-covered Yin Corpse, Shi Feng walked forward. As he arrived in front of the Yin Corpse, he extended his left hand towards her. Suddenly, a blood-colored light began to shine on the Yin Corpse. She was absorbed by Shi Feng into the world within the Blood-colored Stone Stele.

"What is this?" Xue Wuheng, standing behind Shi Feng, was surprised to see the Yin Corpse disappear in a flash of blood-colored light, a look of astonishment appearing on his face, "Could it be... Could it be that my little uncle-master possesses a Divine Artifact from the Ancient Period?"

Regarding Divine Artifacts from the Ancient Period, Xue Wuheng had also heard tales that Divine Grade Alchemists of the Ancient Period could refine Divine Artifacts and create a space within them!

Could it be that my Ancestor of the Netherworld, before his death, had obtained a Divine Artifact, which he passed on to my little uncle-master?

In the heart of Xue Wuheng, his own ancestral master from the Tianheng Continent, the Ancestor of the Netherworld, had almost reached the status of a deity. For someone like his master to obtain a Divine Artifact from ancient times wasn’t impossible.

So, Wuy Hen believed that if Shi Feng really possessed a Divine Artifact, it must have been obtained by the Ancestor of the Netherworld before his death and then passed on to him!

Following that, Wuy Hen saw Shi Feng subdue the Yin Corpse and then moved toward that open gate.

At this time, Wuy Hen hurried to follow, but as soon as he saw Shi Feng walking out of the gate, he noticed Shi Feng’s figure suddenly halt at the entrance, standing motionless!

"What is this!" Wuy Hen also walked through the gate and stood behind Shi Feng when suddenly, his face showed a look of utter surprise; he drew in a sharp breath and exclaimed, "Yin Corpses! So many Yin Corpses! And all of them! Fourth-stage King Rank Yin Corpses!"

Beyond that gate, now before Shi Feng and Wuy Hen lay a land that appeared to have suffered a drought, with the earth cracked and densely covered with fissures, atop which numerous Yin Corpses trod.

And these Yin Corpses, having endured the passage of ages, had all advanced to the Fourth-stage King Rank!

In this place, there must be at least a thousand Yin Corpses within the view of Shi Feng and Wuy Hen.

Each Yin Corpse exuded waves of cold, icy deathly aura, making the whole world here extraordinarily chilling!

However, this world’s deathly cold aura, instead of causing discomfort to Shi Feng and Wuy Hen, who practiced the Nine Nether Technique, made them feel quite at home.

Especially Wuy Hen, who began to circulate the Nine Nether Technique right then and started to secretly absorb the cold aura of this world into his Dantian.

Then, Wuy Hen spoke to Shi Feng, "The pure and vast cold aura here would increase the speed of my cultivation by several times if I practiced here!"

As for the cold aura here, Shi Feng didn’t care much; what he was interested in was the thousand Fourth-stage King Rank Yin Corpses walking on the parched land!

"It’s wonderful!" A smile played around Shi Feng’s lips as he suddenly felt his affection for this world grow.

"This is just great!" Shi Feng laughed joyously, his figure moving swiftly as he shot toward the front.

At this moment, the slowly walking Yin Corpses with their seemingly stiff movements seemed to detect Shi Feng’s presence and sensed the breath of a living being. One by one, the Yin Corpses turned toward Shi Feng’s direction.

"Roar! Roar! Roar! Roar!" Strange, eerie cries echoed continuously from the mouths of the Yin Corpses, and the world instantly became chaotic.

Immediately afterward, the Yin Corpse Group began to move, like a flowing stream they all converged towards Shi Feng, surging forward.

Then, each Yin Corpse with a fierce and ferocious expression, and claws bared, pounced towards Shi Feng.

As Shi Feng shot forward, he flicked his fingers, and suddenly, three pale white Runes shot into the bodies of three errant Yin Corpses walking on the dry land.

These three Yin Corpses were immediately controlled by Shi Feng and following that, with a flash of blood-colored light in his left hand, he absorbed them into the Blood-colored Stone Stele.

At that moment, Shi Feng paused, his feet slowly touching the ground as he looked forward to the converging masses of Yin Corpses. Smiling to himself, he said, "This works out rather well, saving me quite a bit of trouble!"

After saying that, Shi Feng stood his ground and waited for the throngs of surging Yin Corpses! As long as he could subdue all these Yin Corpses, his power would surely rise to a new level when he set up the Formation of Ten Thousand Corpses!
