The sharp claws were cut off and fell to the ground. The corpse aura on the black nails on the claws dissipated rapidly, visible to the naked eye.
Glancing at the sharp claws on the ground, Shen Luo looked at the zombies that attacked him.
This zombie looks ugly, with almost all of its face rotten, and its original appearance is completely unclear.
In terms of his own strength and cultivation, he is not very high, only in the late stage of foundation building.
Because the zombie had lost a pair of sharp claws, its face, which was originally in a state of decay, became hideous, with pale canine teeth exposed at the corners of its mouth, and it was even more trembling.
"Woo~wu~"
This neighing sound came from the corner of his mouth.
The zombie opened its canine teeth at Shen Luo, moved its body, and fused its hard legs like chopsticks, leaping high into the air and pounced forward.
Faced with the attack of such a zombie at the foundation-building stage, as a cultivator at the golden elixir stage, he was able to deal with the zombie in front of him with ease.
He raised his hand and swung his sword finger, shooting out a purple sword light about a foot long, and chopped off the zombie's head with one strike.
Without the head to support the zombie, the torso fell straight from the sky and landed heavily on the ground.
"Where is this place and why are there zombies here?"
Shen Luo moved his eyes away from the zombies on the ground and looked at his surroundings.
This is a passage about one foot long and wide. There are candles hanging on the walls on both sides of the passage, shining dimly and faintly.
The long passage that leads to nowhere, coupled with the dim light inside, gives people an inexplicable sense of depression.
Shen Luo stopped here for a short time, then carefully and slowly started walking in this passage.
The passage was eerily silent, and the rustling sound of lights burning on the wall could be clearly heard. Shen Luo thought that after encountering the zombie he first bumped into, he would encounter some other zombies in this passage.
The result was a bit unexpected. The whole journey was uneventful and we did not encounter any zombie or ghost attacks.
Passing through the long dark corridor, and arriving at the end of the passage, a closed stone door engraved with strange runes appeared in Shen Luo's perspective.
"This stone door seems to have been closed for a long time, but I don't know where it leads behind it."
After sizing up the stone door in front of him, and then looking at the dust falling around the stone door, Shen Luo stretched out his hand and pressed it on the stone door, trying to push open the thick stone door.
Suddenly, the runes engraved on the stone door began to shine, glowing with a faint layer of firefly light, which shook Shen Luo's hand away from the stone door in one fell swoop.
"Thousands of years have passed inside, and there are still restrictions."
Shen Luo retracted his hand that was shaken away, and stretched out his spiritual consciousness towards the stone door, preparing to use his spiritual consciousness to penetrate the restrictions on the stone door and explore the situation behind the stone door.
As soon as the divine consciousness touched the stone door, it was blocked by the runes on the stone door, and the interception bounced back.
"It seems that if you want to open this stone door, you must first break the restrictions on the stone door."
After pondering for a moment, Shen Luo held the magic formula with one hand, and shot out a purple spiritual light, aiming towards the rune restriction on the stone door.
The rune restriction flashed with a low sound, making the weak restriction aura become even dimmer and fainter.
Under the click of several purple spiritual lights, the forbidden runes shone on the stone door. Finally, it was broken open with a "buzz" sound, and the forbidden spiritual light turned into dots of light and disappeared.
Shen Luo once again stretched out his hand and placed it on the stone door, but this time he did not encounter a forbidden counterattack. With a little force, the stone door was completely pushed open.
What you see is an empty hall, which is full of dazzling things and fully furnished with all kinds of furniture.
Obviously this is a place that was once inhabited, but for some reason no one has lived here again for a long time.
In the southwest corner of the deepest hall, there is a passage that leads to an unknown direction.
After briefly scanning the layout of the hall, Shen Luo began to search the hall.
After rummaging through boxes and cabinets, he didn't find any treasures, not even any information about the owner of this residence.
After searching to no avail, he gave up the search, looked towards the deepest passage in the hall, and walked towards that passage.
This passage is not too long. After only a few dozen steps, a stone door facing from the inside appears in front of you.
You don't need to think about it to know that this is a stone door leading to the outer door of the hall. Shen Luo pushed the stone door open and the person reappeared in another passage.
Just when Shen Luo was thinking about where this passage would lead, a shrill scream came from the end of the passage.
Shen Luo's expression suddenly changed, and he stared at the far end of the passage.
The screams were not the sounds of ghosts and monsters, but the sounds of the middle-aged Shangguan Hongming and his companion Taoist Wuyazi who came to this island with him.
"The voice of fellow Taoist Wuyazi, could it be that they encountered some difficult ghost?"
Shen Luo thought about it for a moment, then quickly hurried over there.
The other side at the end of the passage.
A zombie in the early stage of the Golden Elixir appeared here with its teeth and claws spread out, confronting the three middle-aged Shangguan Hongming.
"Fellow Taoist Wuyazi, don't worry."
The middle-aged man Shangguan Hongming activated his magic weapon to repel the zombies. He turned to look at Wu Yazi who was attacked by zombies and fell to the ground with bloody claw marks on his chest.
"I was careless. I was unexpectedly attacked by this beast."
Wuyazi collapsed to the ground and endured the pain on his chest, casting a hemostatic spell to stop the flow of blood.
"Fellow Taoist Wuyazi, you were scratched by a zombie and were infected with corpse energy. Before the corpse energy entered your body, you used your magic power to force it out of your body." Ye Mei, a woman in red, said quickly for fear that Wuyazi was in trouble.
"Fairy Ye is right. I will use my magic power to force out the corpse energy. The zombies in front of me will be handed over to my two Taoist friends."
"Don't worry, fellow Taoist Wu Yazi. With me and Fairy Ye helping you protect the law, you can feel free to force the corpse energy out of your body."
"Then I'd like to thank you, fellow Taoist."
With that said, Wu Yazi sat cross-legged and activated his magic power.
Shangguan Hongming fought off the zombies on the field. Not only did its viciousness not diminish, but it became even more ferocious. It jumped up and pounced on Shangguan Hongming.
Shangguan Hongming immediately activated the magic weapon in his hand and shot out a beam of light that flew towards the zombie, but was knocked away by the zombie's sharp zombie claw.
Shangguan Hongming was so frightened that he activated his magic weapon again and fired a spiritual light to attack the zombies.
The zombie spit out a ball of corpse energy from its mouth. The corpse energy was under its control and blocked the attack of Shangguan Hongming's magic weapon.
The zombie moved very fast. The moment it landed on the ground, its hands were entangled with corpse energy and its claws were fiercely inserted into Shangguan Hongming's neck.
The woman in red, Ye Mei, was stunned for a moment when she saw this scene. She didn't expect the zombie to move so fast, nor did she expect that Shangguan Hongming didn't repel the zombie and let it get closer.
It was at this critical moment when she lost her mind.
A ray of purple light flew over very quickly, stabbing the zombie's neck and piercing it with one blow, cutting off the zombie's head on both shoulders.
After the zombie fell, Shangguan Hongming looked towards the direction where the purple sword light was flying. His fat body shook and he took a long breath, "It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Jiang. It was really a near miss!"
