Chapter 84: Where does the Zombie Shadow Flame Wind Burn?

people?
How could there be people in this place so deep underground?
How could there be people in this world outside the heaven that was detained by the master?
For some reason, in such a situation, the appearance of a figure that seemed to be a "human" was more frightening than any gods, demons or monsters, and for a moment, several people felt a little terrified.

Xu Heng frowned, and the flame beside him suddenly seemed to be fueled, burning violently and emitting even brighter light, as if a bright circle expanded from the flame, driving away all the darkness in the underground space.

In the bright light, the human figures finally revealed their true forms.

It's more like a corpse than a person, or maybe a zombie!

Each of these zombies has a green face and fangs, their muscles are strong but their skin is dull, and they are filled with a faint evil aura and are extremely ferocious.

What's even more bizarre is that these zombies are wearing armor and some are even holding weapons.

When everyone saw what was going on, they breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, they felt something was amiss.

Zombies are transformed from corpses. There are corpses that naturally turn into zombies in this world, but there are no zombies that are born naturally. At least according to the experience of the people present, such things do not exist.

So there must be a corpse before there is a zombie, but where does the corpse come from?

After going around to the end, there are still people in this small world. It is impossible that these zombies were brought or created by fellow disciples?

Not to mention that zombies cannot be created in a day or two, everyone also doesn't believe that there would be a daring lunatic who would dare to raise corpses and create zombies under the nose of the sect's master.

In this cave, we actually encountered zombies. It is really hard to understand what this means.

However, everyone had no time to think about it, because as the darkness was driven away, the battle was ignited at the same time.

Since Xu Heng started practicing, he has experienced several battles, and each of them was a life-and-death battle. Unconsciously, he developed the habit of not moving if he didn't move, and moving with a force as powerful as thunder and lightning if he did.

As the firelight illuminated the appearance of these zombies, sparks were already leaping on their skin, armor, and hair. Flames rose up and soon spread all over their bodies, trying to engulf them in a sea of ​​fire.

However, with so many targets, it is inevitable that the firepower will be diluted, and it is also Xu Heng's first attempt. Casting spells for multiple purposes at the same time will result in an uneven distribution of mana.

Some zombies were instantly engulfed in the sea of ​​fire, roared in pain, and quickly turned into ashes. Other zombies roared in the flames, rushed out of the cave, and tried to launch a counterattack.

Zong Jin shouted in a deep voice, and a mysterious light suddenly shone from his head. Smoke rolled out from his sleeves again, transforming into four forms: a tiger, a leopard, a snake, and a bird, and rushed towards the zombies.

The four beasts transformed by his magic power seemed to have their own characteristics. The tigers and leopards were swift and powerful, while the snakes and birds were agile and had the ability to entangle and harass. With the cooperation of each other, they easily killed the group of zombies that charged up.

As soon as he made a move, Zhang Xian and the others finally woke up from their dreams and cast spells to respond.

After all, they were all disciples of a big sect, so they were able to deal with a mere zombie with ease and defeated it in no time.

But even so, everyone still felt heavy in their hearts, because zombies kept pouring out of those caves. Wang Yao had the weakest magic power, and after fighting off several waves of attacks, he was already a little out of breath, and couldn't help shouting: "How many zombies are there underground?"

No one answered, because everyone was concentrating on repelling the enemy. Only Xu Heng had some strength left. However, he did this not because he wanted to stay out of it, but because he could feel that there was a greater threat hidden.

Xu Heng maintained the spell, and all the zombies that broke in from the cave would catch fire. Those flames contained the power of the sun, and even if they could not burn them all, they would still cause great damage to these zombies.

But he himself was looking at a deep cave. There were particularly few zombies pouring out of this cave, but he always felt that there seemed to be a pair of eyes in it, looking at him.

"Retreat." Xu Heng said, "It's not wise to continue to be in a stalemate like this. The best strategy is to retreat to the ground now."

Zhang Xian took a breath and said, "They are just zombies. I don't believe I can't kill them all..."

"Senior Brother Zhang!" At this time, Hua Feihua's eyebrows were raised, and he shouted before Xu Heng: "Are you blinded by profit? These zombies are simply endless. If you wait until they are exhausted, it will be too late to retreat!"

Zhang Xian's expression changed for a while, and he couldn't help but look at Zong Jin, only to see that he also had a gloomy face, and his eyes swept across several caves. Finally, he said, "Let's go, Junior Brother Wang, retreat first."

Wang Yao breathed a sigh of relief. His cultivation was too shallow and he could not hold on any longer. However, he did not dare to escape alone. Upon hearing these words, he felt as if he had been pardoned. He quickly stood up and flew back the way he came.

"Let's go, move quickly, I'll cover you..." Zong Jin urged Zhang Xian and Hua Feihua to follow, and looked at Xu Heng, but he didn't move.

Xu Heng said calmly: "Master Zong, you go first."

Zong Jin was about to say something, but as Xu Heng finished speaking, the fire in the air suddenly rose. The entire underground space seemed to be on fire, and gusts of flames condensed and swept through, turning all the zombies into ashes.

Zong Jin's eyes were shocked. For the first time, he realized that this junior fellow's magic power and spells were far superior to his own.

He thought about the years he had wasted at the critical juncture of Hesha, and felt complicated. His desire for that Disha seemed to rise again for a moment.

But in the end, he suppressed his distracting thoughts and said in a deep voice: "Brother, hurry up and catch up. If you are not strong enough, I can also take turns to resist."

Xu Heng nodded slightly, and Zong Jin finally jumped up and retreated after Zhang Xian.

Xu Heng saw this but did not move. His eyes were fixed on the cave from beginning to end. He vaguely felt that the "thing" in it was actually afraid of his magic power.

That thing had no intelligence and did not know how to judge the situation. It just felt that Xu Heng's magic power was overwhelming and the threat was extremely great, so it did not dare to show up rashly.

But Xu Heng knew that, just like the confrontation between wild beasts in nature, if he retreated, it would be seen as a sign of weakness by that creature, and it would immediately attack him.

So he waited, and waited until Zong Jin and the others were some distance away before he calmed down and used magic. Flames and winds gathered together and turned into a mighty wall of fire to block their way. At the same time, flames flashed under his feet, and he rose from the ground and rushed back the way he came.

He actually used his escape skills to travel through this narrow and winding underground crevice.

Just as Xu Heng expected, the moment he left, a roar suddenly came from the cave, the ground shook slightly, and countless pebbles fell down.

But Xu Heng had no intention of paying attention to it. He was traveling through the underground cracks at a very fast speed and had to concentrate fully.

Fortunately, thanks to his progress in refining his magic power, his fire escape has reached a subtle level and can be operated more freely. It is also due to his extremely clear mind at critical moments, which allows him to react quickly at such a fast speed. It is also due to his hard work in studying ways to make his body more agile.

Xu Heng had a vague feeling that this was the state of 'freedom and unrestrainedness' described in the chapter on the initial exploration of physical skills.

Xu Heng didn't even realize that he had a very relaxed look on his face. He flashed through the underground passage like lightning and soon reached the place where the gap became narrow.

But what he didn't expect was that Zong Jin was actually waiting here.

He saw Xu Heng appear at the end of his sight, rushing towards him at such a fast speed. The worry in his eyes turned into surprise, and he reacted immediately. Without saying a word, he went into the gap and headed towards the ground.

Xu Heng looked at the narrow gap left by Zong Jin's entry, and suddenly he felt an urge in his heart. He wanted to try to turn into fire and rushed forward. He could even feel that he could really turn into fire as long as he thought about it.

But in the end Xu Heng did not make this choice, because he knew that his magic power was not enough to support him to do so. If he really acted on impulse, he might really turn into a stream of fire while escaping.

Xu Heng took a deep breath and his speed of escape gradually slowed down. At the same time, one side of his body was naturally transformed into magic power, wrapping his body and flying up. He passed through the gap at a still fast speed and almost came out of the ground behind Zong Jin.

Hua Feihua and a few others were waiting anxiously on the ground. When they saw the two people coming out of the gap one after the other, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She was about to speak, but as soon as Xu Hengfu appeared, she did not relax for a moment, so she turned around and took a deep breath.

This breath seemed to stir up a strong wind! Everyone looked at him in amazement as he took a breath. The air in the air gathered and was swallowed into his stomach in one gulp.

But what shocked them even more was that at the same time Xu Heng moved, a bright light suddenly shone from the Heavenly Gate! A magnificent mysterious light shot up into the sky, piercing through the mist and reaching an unknown place.

"Such magical power..." Zong Jin couldn't help but look up, his heart was shocked. He had seen Meng Fusheng emitting mysterious light before. He also had a superior Taoist foundation. However, when Meng Fusheng's magical power reached its peak, it didn't seem to be so powerful!

However, Xu Heng's release of the mysterious light was certainly not to shock his fellow disciples, but to fully mobilize the mana in his body, along with his breath -

Xu Heng blew violently, and a blast of wind rolled out with waves of flames, rushing and whistling into the cracks in the ground, as if to completely ignite the inside. Until Xu Heng stopped casting the spell, there was still firelight coming out of the cracks, and waves of flames could be seen surging.

"Roar——!" Faintly, a distant roar seemed to be coming from the gap, and the valley began to tremble slightly.

But until the flames died out, the thing that had never been seen from the beginning to the end still did not rush out. It was unknown whether it was burned to ashes by the flames or retreated back into the depths of the earth.

At this time, everyone came back to their senses, and Hua Feihua hurriedly asked: "Junior Brother Xu, are you okay?"

"I'm fine." Xu Heng slowly exhaled, put away the mysterious light and stopped emitting it, then replied: "But some of my magic power was consumed."
