"The ones I intend to kill can't be protected by them, and the ones I wish to save, they can't kill."

A sudden voice transmission echoed in the hearts of the unlucky bunch who had just been poisoned by corpse poison, and naturally, the reason for the voice transmission was out of consideration for the language barrier.

After all, Yi Chen could see right through the foundation of this unfortunate group at a glance. They were nothing but ordinary people, at most some of them had some basic knowledge of fists and kicks, having practiced a little Inner Qi.

Yi Chen's mouth curled into a grin; having just put on an imposing front, he extended his hand and immediately pulled a child, about seven or eight years of age, from the ranks of the walking corpses into his palm. Just as he was about to perform a miraculous reversal of fate and display his divine skills, suddenly a phrase startled Yi Chen so much that he removed his cloak.

At this moment, the Taoist was full of disbelief, his penetrating gaze fixed on the dark eye sockets of a middle-aged man kneeling at his feet.

"What did you just say to me?"

"I said, please do not heal my son. To become... to become like this was our own wish."

"The corpse poison that we've been afflicted with, the leader of the Green Corpses had already told us before that with our frail bodies, should we resist, the outcome would inevitably be death by spontaneous combustion. However, if we accept the erosion by this Alien Poison, there is still a chance to become a true Alien Corpse."

"We, this group of people, do not know whether we are fortunate or not, but now we have turned into this kind of living dead," said the middle-aged man with a sorrowful expression.

"If that's the case, I am reversing the course of nature to give your son a new life, why are you unwilling?"

The middle-aged man's explanation left Yi Chen utterly befuddled.

He understood every word, but when strung together, even he, with his Astonishing Wisdom, found it incomprehensible.

"Because... like this, we don't need any food. We can live by feeding on the putrid, oppressive miasma ubiquitous in Yin Land."

Before the middle-aged man could answer, a white-haired old man who looked like an Evil Spirit also abruptly kneeled before Yi Chen, speaking in a dire tone.

At this moment, the Great Qin State Master was lost for words.

He was too strong, stronger than what many could imagine.

Since leaving Fengyun County, his Cultivation progressed rapidly. He traveled along the knife's edge, with nothing that could stop him.

He was the Shocking Pure Yang, the master of Blood Killing Tower, the Great Elder of the Hehuan Sect, Lord Tan Lang, the Alliance Hierarch of Hidden Dragon, the Great Qin State Master... His True Technique had breakthrough after breakthrough, and now he had reached a godly Cultivation, attained the Heavenly Position, with combat power to defy conventions and overthrow Cultivators of the Immortal Platform.

Those Cultivators below the Fourth Layer Realm of Immortal Platform, he could claim to extinguish immortals with just one hand if he wished.

Thus, at some point, Yichengzi felt as if he had left the masses behind.

Dammit, humans need to eat.

For the ordinary people who have nothing, arriving in Yin Land is like ending up in a post-apocalyptic wasteland as depicted in science fiction.

Not only burdened with a bunch of debuffs, but also with a reducing health pool and the setting of continuous health drain.

For someone like Yichengzi, who felt at home in Yin Land, he was indeed a rarity among outliers.

After all, even the Black Hidden Buddha marveled that Yichengzi at this level had already obtained a hint of the essence of the Dao Fruit Realm.

"You all..." For the first time, Yi Chen found it incredibly difficult to speak.

After all, there was a time when he could make dogs regret barking at him with his sharp-tongued retorts, and today he was somewhat at a loss.

He could help for a moment, but not for a lifetime. Even if he really could help, how many could he help?

In Yin Land, there are too many suffering, too many fallen.

"Taoist Priest, I actually haven't wanted to live for a long time. Although we can sustain ourselves by consuming Qi, every moment is like being sliced by a knife, unbearable pain. I only wish that the Taoist Priest could save my son."

"I beg the Taoist Priest to take him as a disciple and lead him away!"

At this moment, the middle-aged man began to kowtow continuously on the ground, revealing his true intentions!

The heart of a parent knows no bounds, this middle-aged man had laid such an extensive foundation for this final plea.

He deeply understood that in this bizarre and indescribable world, without the protection of a powerful and influential figure, even if his child was truly restored to his previous self, it would be meaningless.

To die sooner or later; either way it would end in death.

He endured various hardships and indignities in order to survive, all for a chance, a nearly impossible chance, a chance for his child to live on.

Even if we're gasping for our last breath, where there's life, there's hope!

Today, he finally arrived—it was a strong and compassionate Taoist.

"Taoist Priest, we no longer wish to live; please save this child and take him away." The white-haired old man who had spoken earlier forced a rueful smile, suddenly picked up a sharp wooden spike from the ground, and plunged it fiercely into his own chest, "This... these days, this old one... has lived enough!"

With those words, the old man breathed his last.

"Taoist Priest, I've watched Xiaoye grow up, and I no longer wish to live either, I've had enough of these days. Please take Xiaoye in, even if just as a little cat or dog, let him serve you tea and water." A middle-aged woman also stepped forward from the crowd, and she began to kowtow to Yi Chen non-stop, soon a sticky dark purple blood oozed from her forehead.

At that moment, amidst the clamor, Yi Chen realized that most of the people before him came from the same clan. Their children had mostly perished in the earlier catastrophe, and this young child before them was everyone's child.

Or rather, with their joint efforts and under the watchful eyes of Lady Luck, this child called Xiaoye had miraculously survived the intense ordeal till now.

It's no wonder that all their affection for their own children had been poured into this young boy.

"Taoist Priest, I'm not from their clan, but I also beg you to save this child," a young man smeared with blood suddenly spoke up, "I'm tired, tired of living such a wretched life. I'm worn out, but this child's life has only just begun."

After speaking, the young man raised his remaining left hand, his sharp fingernails suddenly plunging into his own chest, agonizingly moaning as he felt his life force ebbing away.

These people before him, they were incredibly strong, yet extremely vulnerable, insignificant and powerless, yet they had somehow managed to corner Yi Chen, even at the stake of their own lives.

When humans are faced with desperate circumstances, it's not just the indecomposable darkness they reveal, but also the emergent brilliance of humanity.

Perhaps it is precisely because the darkness is so dense that the shimmer of light is all the more dazzling!

Maybe, this 'altruistic' gene, is the true Heavenly Dao, the true cause that lets fearsome bipeds dominate the heavens.

No matter how dark, there are always heroes in this world ready to patch things up.

"Stop your kowtowing and stop trying to kill yourselves."

Yi Chen halted everyone; he walked dispassionately up to the middle-aged man, looked down at the dark eye sockets, "You're very shrewd, you've been setting traps for this poor Taoist since your first word!"

"Well played, revealing the dagger only when the trap is set!"

"Looks like you were quite the figure in the previous world too."

"You've won your bet, all of you have won. As a reward for taking the child with me, I will personally end your lives."

"Rest assured, when this poor Taoist makes a move, it's quick! You will not feel any pain!"

Looking at the surrounding people with death wishes, Yi Chen sighed inwardly but his tone was as cold as ice.

What a messed-up world!

At that moment, Yi Chen also understood why the Corpse Resentment Dead Zone was so formidable; he possessed a Dharma Gate that transformed corpses on a large scale, and then fed on these animated corpses—by past life explanations, it was a more efficient use of energy.

Yi Chen even suspected that the reason the corpse horde brought along this group of animated corpses was probably to keep them fresh; after all, an ordinary person wouldn't last long in the Yin Land before decaying, and the state of these living dead was deliberately done by the Green Corpse leader to cater to a certain strong individual's unique taste.

"All your everything, this poor Taoist will shoulder; your lives, I will also take."

"This poor Taoist respects your choice!"

"This child called Xiaoye, I will take with me and accept him as my disciple! This poor Taoist will do his utmost to ensure he has a good life!"

"As a reward for killing you all—if there's a chance, I will personally put an end to the Corpse Resentment Dead Zone, it is the price they must pay for toying with human hearts!"

"Th... thank you, Taoist Priest!"

As the middle-aged man's head knocked heavily down, a grand Extreme Origin swept past, information flow on earning hundreds of Deep Red Points plus five appeared before Yi Chen's eyes.

This was the most losing deal that Shocking Pure Yang Yichengzi had ever made thus far.

Even worse than the Bridesmaid's corpse, the animated corpses worth only five Deep Red Points were a first for Yi Chen.

"From today on, your name is Jiang Ming!"

Lifting the fainted child, Yi Chen immediately dashed toward the distance.

With this, he'd gathered 1.5 billion Deep Red Points; he must find a place for a Breakthrough immediately!
