Chapter 785
785 Chapter 783-group of cultivators fighting against dried corpses
The benefits of killing Tang Zhen were too rich, and the foreign cultivators present were not willing to give up so easily. Therefore, after some consideration, they chose to enter the ruins and continue the pursuit.
However, there were a few cultivators who chose to stay where they were, ignoring the mocking gazes of others.
In their opinion, instead of taking the risk of entering this dangerous area and bearing the threat of death at any time, it was better to give up on this operation.
With the existence of those three two-star King tiers, even if they really killed Tang Zhen, the greatest benefits would not fall on their heads. At most, they would only be able to share some of the soup with some oil.
However, this mouthful of soup was a little hot, and if he was not careful, he would lose his life, so it was not worth it.
Their way of thinking was still considered rational, but in the face of the temptation of huge benefits, those who could remain clear-headed were still very few.
At this time, the alien cultivators who followed the two-star King into the ruins were soon attacked by the first group of enemies. They were the strange mummies with mycelium growing on the surface of their bodies.
However, these foreign cultivators were a little unlucky. When Tang Zhen was cleaning up the mummies, only a few dozen of them were awakened, and they were all monsters that had not reached the Lord tier.
As for the other mummies that had accumulated over the years, they were not disturbed and were still in deep sleep.
However, his actions just now were like poking a hornet’s nest. Although he was fine, the people who came later would be in trouble.
This was because the mummies that he had repelled had inadvertently awakened more mummies while they were fleeing in chaos. At this moment, they were wandering aimlessly in the clouds.
Now that a large number of foreign cultivators had entered the ruins, the surging blood Qi that had inadvertently seeped out of the cultivators immediately attracted the blank mummies.
Affected by the mycelium that was highly sensitive to blood and parasites in the mummies, the mummies were like bloodthirsty wolves. They kept emerging from the ruins and fog, surrounding the foreign cultivators.
Because they couldn’t feel pain or fear death, the mummies controlled by the mycelium were extremely crazy.
The momentum of the incoming attacks made the foreign cultivators extremely frightened. They quickly used all kinds of methods to cut the mummies into pieces!
However, what made them feel uneasy was that the mummified monsters seemed to be impossible to kill, and their numbers were still increasing.
Because of the clouds, the exact number of mummies could not be counted, but looking at the tide-like scale, it was definitely not a small number!
In addition to their terrifying numbers, their immortality was what gave the foreign cultivators the most headache.
As countless mummified monsters were killed, the broken pieces of the corpses on the ground had piled up like a mountain. However, under the control of the mycelium, they fused together to form huge, strange-looking monsters.
The biggest monster among them looked like a 100-meter-long Human Centipede. It was rolling around among the mummies and attacking the alien cultivators.
Other than the ordinary mummies and mutated mummies, some special mummies that were hidden in the ruins suddenly jumped out and launched a fierce attack on the cultivators!
These special mummies were all at least Lord-tier, and not only did they come in different forms, but their attacks were also different.
They either spat out poisonous smoke or jumped around like flies, appearing and disappearing unpredictably under the cover of the clouds and fog, causing the cultivators to be flustered.
“Shua, shua shua shua”
A series of heavy footsteps could be heard. Then, a huge black shadow broke through the clouds and headed straight for the foreign cultivators.
The cultivators looked at the giant, horned, mummified corpse that was more than thirty meters tall and covered in long, thick mycelium. They all groaned in their hearts.
However, there was no way to retreat now. They could only brace themselves and charge forward, tangling with the mummies.
It could be said that the current situation was extremely disadvantageous to these foreign cultivators. Although they had the advantage in level, the only effect they had against these fearless mummified monsters was to increase their damage numbers.
Unfortunately, these monsters could not be killed at all. On the contrary, the more they died, the more powerful they became, and the harder it was to kill them!
Under such circumstances, it didn’t take long for a few Lord cultivators to be torn into pieces by these mummified monsters due to their carelessness!
The rest of the non-human cultivators felt a chill in their hearts as they knew that they would end up in the same situation if the stalemate continued!
The leading two-star King tier was currently surrounding the giant mummified corpse with several other King level cultivators. Saber Light flickered as skills were unleashed, landing on the surface of the giant mummified corpse’s body.
For a moment, rotten flesh and blood filled the air. The deep white bones were soon exposed on the surface of the giant mummified corpse’s body, looking extremely ferocious.
The fungi that were hidden in the giant mummies were revealed at this moment. They had noses and eyes, looking like ugly heads covered in black mycelium.
“Attack those ghostly things and see if we can burn them!”
kill! the leading two-star King tier gave the order, and a non-human cultivator activated his skill. A fire Dragon shot toward the bacteria in the abdomen.
The moment the fire Dragon touched the fungi, it immediately burst into flames like dry wood. At the same time, an extremely foul smell spread in all directions.
The burning fungi shrieked at the same time, causing the mummies that were attacking the other non-human cultivators to stop.
Then, the mummies gave up on the struggling foreign cultivators and rushed towards the giant mummified corpse. They pounced on the flames on the mummified corpse.
Perhaps fire was the nemesis of the mycelium. As soon as the mummies came into contact with the fire, they immediately burst into flames and turned into huge fireballs, screaming in pain.
From time to time, a dried corpse would fall to the ground and turn into black smoke. With a light step, it would turn into powder.
Even so, the mummies still pounced on the giant’s body one after another, using their bodies to put out the flames.
The giant corpse no longer bothered the cultivators. Instead, it turned around and left the battlefield, quickly running into the depths of the clouds!
As for the other mummies, they quickly formed a wall of corpses to block the foreign cultivators. Then, they slowly retreated until they completely disappeared.
The cultivators looked at the charred corpses scattered on the ground and heard the unwilling roar of the giant corpse in the thick fog. Their faces were frighteningly gloomy.
