Infinite Horror: The Strongest Zhongzhou Team

Upon seeing this, Jiale, Qiusheng, and Wencai also prostrated themselves in admiration.

All three of them knew what was going on.

I've already paid my respects to my master, so why should I just stand there?

I'm afraid the patriarch will come knocking on our door soon.

If he doesn't come to the door, then his master will send him down to personally apologize to the patriarch.

Then things will get interesting.

Followed by.

At the same time that Lin Jiu and Master Simu completed the ceremony.

A mysterious and peculiar feeling arose within the main hall of the mortuary.

The onlookers only saw the ancestral tablet in front of them.

The red glowing spot on the cigarette holder seemed to breathe and began to burn rapidly, sometimes bright and sometimes dim.

Upon witnessing this scene, Xiao Honglu clearly sensed something.

His eyes, now filled with spiritual energy, looked down at the spot where everyone was standing.

But Cheng Xiao and his companions saw it all clearly.

The three long incense sticks burning rapidly in front of the memorial tablet released three wisps of condensed, persistent blue incense flames.

Finally, the three wisps of incense began to intertwine as if grasped by a large hand.

Finally, the incense sticks, entwined together, floated straight upwards.

They converged into a straight line.

When Si Mu and Uncle Jiu saw this, they quickly bowed again before showing joy.

Cheng Xiao, sitting on Xiao Honglu's shoulder, had also just sensed a certain presence.

The baby frowned and whispered:

"This feels so familiar... wait, isn't this something we've met before?"

Xiao Honglu nodded:
"I think it must be a technique similar to the Supreme Induction."

"When people have thoughts, the thoughts of all living beings and the thoughts of all people come together to form a shape, it will transform from the illusory to the real, from the false to the true."

"As for why it feels familiar, do you remember the cursed spirit that evolved decades later in Ju-on?"

"In other words, Chu Xuan's enhancement system should be similar to this."

"The thoughts of ordinary people are irrelevant, but for cultivators, and for the entire sect, they are of great importance."

"Even if it is ethereal and unreal, it can still be condensed into a form."

"Not to mention that this patriarch is not a fake, but a real person who actually existed, which gives him even more credibility and confidence."

"So I think this founder of the Maoshan Sect probably followed a similar path of enhancement as Chu Xuan."

"Of course, it's only similar, because it also involves the power of incense and faith, which is different from thoughts and emotions."

Although that's what Xiao Honglu said, it's mostly speculation.

Within the system of the Main God Space, there are naturally advancement paths related to incense and faith, but unfortunately...

Because it's not suitable for horror movies, none of the members of the Zhongzhou team, or even the other reincarnators they encountered in these team battles, took this path.

After all, this path is too weak and unfriendly in the early stages.

Although Chu Xuan's cursed spirit bloodline can absorb the emotional power of "fear of people".

But it's still quite different from the one in front of me.

So after watching the ritual, the two of them were completely confused.

Xiao Honglu thought that perhaps he would only be able to see this clearly after he reached the Nascent Soul stage.

He had a feeling that the ritual he had just performed was somehow related to the underworld.

The two of them hadn't said anything yet.

Upon seeing the straight plume of blue smoke, Master Ikkyu chuckled and began to explain:

"Everything is going smoothly. It seems your ancestor has agreed. There's nothing more to say, right, you two fellow Daoists?"

Lin Jiu and Master Simu sat down again.

Both of them had solemn expressions.

"Let's leave aside the issue of using living people to train zombies for now."

"According to your requirements, it is impossible for someone to evolve into a zombie and still possess their own will."

"Zombie, zombie. It refers to a corpse that has been awakened by spirit, which is why it is considered an anomaly."

Human consciousness belongs to the three souls and six spirits; while alive, it occupies the physical body, and after death, it returns to the underworld.

"Ordinary people's bodies are too fragile, and they are completely different from zombies. How do you plan to solve this problem?"

Cheng Xiao and the others exchanged glances and explained:

"Yue'er is an ordinary person, but she is not an ordinary person in the usual way."

After saying that, Cheng Xiao nodded to Yue'er.

Everyone saw the seemingly frail little girl stand up from her seat.

After taking a deep breath, he actually rushed straight towards one of the walls.

He leaped more than three meters into the air with a burst of speed from his feet, then lightly tapped the wall to one side.

After a dazzling series of movements, he finally landed back on the ground.

Moreover, after landing, his breathing under his nose was exactly the same as before, without any rush.

It's fair to say that he didn't blush or skip a beat.

The group of people, unaware of the truth, all gaped in astonishment.

Especially the presence of Wen Cai, Qiu Sheng, Jia Le, and Jing Jing, these four disciples.

Because Yue'er looked a few years younger than Qiu Sheng, the youngest of the four, but this...

"Because of an accident..."

Cheng Xiao subtly explained the enhanced effects and functions of the T-virus.

But Uncle Nine still shook his head.

Cheng Xiao also raised his voice again:
"That's not enough. What if I add my medical skills to it?"

"We plan to let Yue'er absorb the corpse poison directly, allowing it to gradually transform her body. I will use my medical skills to ensure that Yue'er's consciousness remains within her physical body, just in case, and also to control the corpse poison."

Uncle Nine and Four Eyes had no more questions, and in the end they simply said that he was exceptionally gifted.

Seeing that it was still early and none of them were the type to hesitate, they made a decisive move.

Uncle Nine got up and led the four of them directly to the Ren family in a grand procession.

Under the persuasion of Feng Shui Master Uncle Nine.

After the Ren family heard that their descendants had died out and their fortunes had declined because the old man's feng shui was bad, they learned that the reason for their misfortune was that the ancestral grave site was unlucky.

The whole family nodded without hesitation.

They were rich and powerful, and had the help of Xiao Honglu and his associates.

The head was taken in the morning.

At noon, the coffin of Old Master Ren was dug out by the filial sons and grandsons of the Ren family.

They were afraid that if they were a step too slow, it would affect their own fortune.

Looking at the Ren family members who are so efficient.

Uncle Nine couldn't help but sigh:

"I never expected that you, fellow Daoist, are not only exceptionally skilled in medicine, but also have a deep understanding of human nature."

"Seeing how quickly the Ren family agreed, and how much money and effort they put in, I finally understood why you asked me to use the words 'childlessness' and 'bad luck'."

Cheng Xiao quickly waved his hand and said modestly:
"I'll take that as a compliment. But in this world, no one, whether king or general or landlord or gentry, can escape these eight words in the end."

"Especially when it comes to things like ancestral acupoints."

"Of course, the most important thing is your reputation and standing in Renjia Town, Uncle Jiu. Otherwise, if it were someone else, the Ren family wouldn't trust you so easily."

Uncle Nine nodded in deep agreement and said with a serious expression:
"That Taoist priest who sealed the grave with cement was somewhat conscientious. He left a document for the Ren family to relocate the grave in twenty years. He harmed the Ren family for half their lives, but not for their entire lives."

"One cause and one effect, so they cancel each other out."

Cheng Xiao nodded, then looked at Lin Jiu and asked in return:

"But is the Taoist blood you mentioned really effective for Yue'er?"

Uncle Nine put his hands behind his back and his expression turned serious:
“It will definitely work. After a corpse becomes stiff, I have seen three methods that can make it stronger quickly, each of which can save decades of effort.”

"First, it absorbs the blood of its closest relatives; the closer the relationship, the stronger it becomes, and the more blood it contains, the stronger it becomes."

"Secondly, it is the blood of a Taoist priest. The deeper the magical power, the stronger the effect."

"The third is to survive the lightning tribulation. The stronger the lightning tribulation, the stronger the zombie will be after surviving it." Cheng Xiao nodded.

Actually, he had already thought of it when Uncle Nine took the initiative to say the words "Taoist blood".

In the previous storyline of Uncle Zombie, wasn't the royal zombie in the original work just like this?

Triple reinforcement, each more exaggerated than the last.

Since that's the case, Yue'er can also take this path.

Even if he wasn't as good as the one back then, Cheng Xiao could accept being a little weaker.

That's when.

Cheng Xiaocai then understood Xiao Honglu's good intentions.

He said that Xiao Honglu wanted to approach Master Simu and Uncle Jiu as soon as he arrived.

Goodness, it seems this guy probably had this in mind from the beginning.

However, Cheng Xiao did not expect that the surprises that followed were not the only ones.

The next morning.

The sun is rising.

Looking at the barren, yellow hills, Jiale wiped the sweat from his brow and couldn't help but marvel at the speed of the wealthy.

Not to mention the graves and tombstones, even the area within a hundred meters was trampled by the old ox.

All that's left is a large, empty hole in the center.

Wencai complained, "That's why we came so early in the morning. The sun is blazing, it's so hot!"

Qiu Sheng bent over with his buttocks sticking out:

"It's only because the sun is so strong, otherwise I really wouldn't dare to do it!"

Wencai and Qiusheng glanced around and both shuddered.

Fortunately, Jia Le is knowledgeable and worldly-wise, and his vision is currently very bright, so things are alright.

"Snapped!"

A willow branch falls.

Wencai and Qiusheng were both like shrimp on a hot plate.

And so began a flamboyant dance.

"Brother, it hurts, it really hurts."

Jia Le chuckled:
"It's okay if it hurts. I don't care what you say, but your master said not to stop."

"If I don't work, I'll have Jingjing come over in a bit!"

Upon hearing this threatening remark, both Wencai and Qiusheng's lips twitched.

Qiu Sheng changed the subject, bent down, grabbed a handful of soil, and said in a very logical manner:

"The soil here is fine and glossy; is this the purpose of the corpse-nurturing cave?"

"We haven't found any problems?"

"I think planting fruit trees is a good idea; I'm sure we can raise them well."

"Senior brother, can you see anything strange?"

Jiale next to him shook his head:

"No, according to Master and Uncle, the cement cap has now been broken, and it has once again become a lucky and auspicious burial site, like a dragonfly skimming the water."

Only after Master and my fellow apprentices have finished can things truly change.

"Transform it into a precious burial site that doesn't need a cement roof and can even be called a place to nurture corpses."

The two nodded.

However, Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai's peace of mind didn't last long.

While wielding the hoe, he started chatting again:

"Cousin, could you tell me the story of the royal zombies again?"

Wencai: "Yes, brother. I want to hear it too."

Jiale, who was in charge of supervising the construction, said irritably, "Didn't you two not believe me? I told Jingjing before that you two would run away as soon as you heard the beginning."

Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai may not have much else to offer, but they are both incredibly shameless.
"I believe it. Who says I don't?"

"We both have always believed that."

Besides, didn't the two senior disciples agree yesterday that Master and Uncle-Master would train the four of us for the next three months?

"We also wanted to learn more about these two seniors in advance."

(Then see how to be lazy.)
Hearing this, Jiale nodded in satisfaction at the two's attitude.

He began his narration in a tone that sounded like a storyteller.

After a vivid and dramatic story.

Qiu Sheng asked Wen Cai, who had already knelt down.

Don't ask why, just know that kneeling is comfortable.

Furthermore, the two have decided to give up on slacking off and just focus on surviving.

A hundred meters away.

Master Simu was burying copper coins and bamboo along with other things in the yellow earth, following the drawing in his hand.

Meanwhile, Uncle Nine was writing something on a bronze-cornered golden coffin.

Uncle Nine handed a bucket of bright red liquid to Master Four Eyes.

Then he continued painting, dipping his brush in the liquid as he spoke:
"If our master knew that the two of us were carrying human blood and doing this..."

"They'll probably jump out and clean house."

The four-eyed Taoist priest beside him snorted:
"Do you believe that Master might jump out one second and be shoved back in by Xiao Honglu the next?"

"Senior brother, do you think they can't do it without the two of us?"

"That's a Taoist golden elixir!"

"Even the head of the Maoshan sect might not be able to reach this level, heaven knows how Xiao Honglu cultivated it!"

The two sighed and continued to inscribe runes that could help with focusing the mind and nourishing the corpse.

The Maoshan School is divided into different types of magic techniques.

Master Four Eyes is a disciple of a sect that exorcises ghosts and demons, while Uncle Nine, as the senior disciple, is a disciple of both sects.

These are talismans and spells, and feng shui techniques.

What they are doing now is a formation that Lin Jiu learned from the Maoshan Sect back then.

When he graduated, he thought he would never need to use this formation in his life.

But looking back now, I was too young and spoke too soon.

Because now this is coming in handy!

Calling it a formation isn't entirely accurate; more precisely, it should be described as a little trick or method.

A place that can be transformed from a natural feng shui treasure into a nurturing ground that can gather yin energy and store qi.

And in such places, once a concrete roof is added...

That place will be transformed into a supreme treasure trove for raising corpses.

Corpse-Nourishing Cave and Corpse-Nourishing Treasure Cave
The difference of just one word has a more than tenfold effect compared to what happened with Old Master Ren.

In the words of Master Four Eyes.

If his senior brother, who had gone astray, had possessed this treasure trove, the Maoshan sect would probably have had to switch allegiances by now.

It is easy to imagine how outstanding the effects of this precious burial site are.

And when I heard that Uncle Nine had such a little trick.

Both Xiao Honglu and Cheng Xiao felt like they had won the lottery.

As expected of the protagonist, he knows a lot.

Therefore, Xiao Honglu decisively abandoned the formation he had prepared and instead let Uncle Jiu begin setting it up.

The extremely difficult-to-obtain raw materials were produced bucket by bucket by Xiao Honglu after Uncle Jiu brought them up.

After confirming that it was all human blood.

Master Four Eyes and Uncle Nine were both momentarily stunned and almost didn't take action immediately.

If it weren't for the fact that the founder had already given the answer.

The two of them really don't know what to do now.

After Uncle Nine confirmed that there was no resentment in the blood, the two were relieved. (End of Chapter)
