"Same old method. I'll go in and face the cremated zombies head-on. You stay here and cover me, and provide support as needed." Since there was no other way, they had no choice but to try. Lin Yuan looked at An Xin and said.

"Okay, I understand. Be careful, and if there are any problems, just back out immediately." Anxin nodded in agreement.

"Okay!" After giving his instructions, Lin Yuan didn't waste any time. He jumped off the carriage and headed straight ahead.

His footsteps were steady as he stepped into the forest of withered bones. The layers of pale, broken bones under his feet crunched under his feet, and tiny bone fragments flew up and then floated lightly back down to the silent ground.

The entire forest was devoid of any vitality; the twisted and withered branches intertwined like ghostly claws, completely obscuring the night sky, preventing even a wisp of wind from getting in.

The air was filled with a chilling, lingering stench of burning flesh. Occasionally, tiny, pale blue flames would flicker between the bones, instantly scorching the dead wood to black ash upon contact—a truly eerie sight.

He gripped the Yin Qi compass and strode forward. The pointer trembled wildly before fixing itself firmly on the massive bone mound in the center of the forest—where the Yin Qi concentration reached its peak, making it the perfect spot to reinforce the seal of the blood coffin.

Golden lightning quietly swirled in Lin Yuan's palm, its golden light standing out conspicuously in the dark forest.

Outside the forest, Anxin stood firmly guarding the carriage, holding a specially made sniper rifle with both hands, the crosshair locked on the entrance to the Bone Forest, his breathing as light as possible.

While keeping an eye on the motionless zombie horde and blood coffin behind her, she kept a close eye on Lin Yuan's figure, her finger lightly tapping the trigger, ready to lend a hand in any critical moment.

The blood coffin on the carriage shone brightly red, its seal secure and showing no signs of movement, which reassured her somewhat, and she focused all her attention on the withered bone forest.

The moment Lin Yuan reached the edge of the bone mound, the entire forest of withered bones suddenly trembled violently!

"Boom—!"

The massive bone mound in the center of the forest exploded with a deafening roar, sending shards of bone flying everywhere. A violent and scorching evil aura, accompanied by towering blue flames, burst forth from the ground, instantly engulfing an area of ​​several feet in radius.

The dead wood ignited instantly upon contact with the flames, crackling and popping. The charred ash danced in the wind, and the once chilly forest instantly became unbearably hot. Even the broken bones on the ground were scorched and turned slightly white.

Lin Yuan's pupils contracted sharply, and he abruptly retreated several steps, his body crackling with lightning as he prepared for battle.

A tall, ferocious figure slowly rose from the burning bone mound—it was the Corpse-Burning Zombie.

This mutated zombie looked terrifying, completely subverting the form of ordinary zombies. Its body was enveloped in eerie, sinister flames, exuding a ferocious, earth-shattering power.

It was over two zhang tall, with a shriveled but unusually robust body. Its flesh had been half-charred by the flames, and the dark brown charred skin clung tightly to the protruding bones. In many places, the flesh had peeled off, revealing the withered bones that glowed red, with pale blue flames constantly seeping from between the bones.

The most striking feature was its head, which lacked a complete face, with half of its skull exposed. Instead of cloudy corpse eyes, its eye sockets held two flickering, eerie blue flames that burned eerily, locked onto Lin Yuan, who had intruded into its territory, radiating a ferocious, man-eating light.

Its mouth and nose had long been burned away by the flames, leaving only two black holes. When it opened its mouth, flames spewed out, revealing two rows of charred and sharp fangs. Saliva dripped onto the ground, instantly burning small black pits.

Its arms were unusually thick, its claws were half a foot long, and its nails were red and shiny from being burned by the Yin Fire. Every swing of its arms brought up a scorching wave of air. Its body was surrounded by raging, eerie blue Yin Fire. The flames were not ordinary fire, but Soul-Burning Yin Fire that was condensed with corpse energy and resentment. Even the air was slightly distorted by the heat.

The cremated zombie straightened its body, and the eerie fire in its eye sockets suddenly surged, letting out a deafening roar. The roar was mixed with the sound of flames exploding, and the sound waves shook the withered trees and broke one after another.

Without the slightest hesitation, it slammed its legs into the ground, unleashing a torrent of dark fire, charging fiercely towards Lin Yuan like a raging torch. Wherever it passed, the broken bones on the ground were instantly burned to white ash, leaving behind a trail of blazing fire.

"Monster, come on!" Lin Yuan shouted in a low voice, intending to first probe the details of this burning zombie.

He didn't use his full strength, but instead condensed a medium-powered Golden Extreme Divine Lightning in his palm. The golden lightning flashed, carrying an aura of extreme strength and yang, and he slammed it fiercely into the chest of the burning corpse zombie.

"Sizzle—Boom!"

A thick golden bolt of lightning ripped through the darkness and struck the incinerated zombie's body with pinpoint accuracy, but then a horrifying scene unfolded!

The moment the divine lightning touched the eerie blue flames surrounding the burning corpse, it was instantly enveloped by the flames. A sizzling sound rang out, and the golden lightning dimmed and dissipated at a visible speed. In less than half a breath, it was completely devoured and neutralized by the eerie flames!

The Corpse-Burning Zombie didn't even pause for a moment; instead, the Yin Fire on its body grew even stronger, and the flames in its eye sockets flickered even more fiercely. Its attack showed no signs of abating, and it was now less than three zhang away from Lin Yuan!

"Lin Yuan! Watch out!" An Xin outside Lin saw it clearly and her heart tightened. She immediately locked onto the head of the burning zombie—the core weakness of all zombies—and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

"Bang!"

The specially made bullets whistled through the air with a sharp whooshing sound, moving as fast as lightning, heading straight for the eye sockets of the cremated zombie.

But as soon as the bullet reached a three-foot radius around the incinerated zombie, before it could unleash its power, it was instantly engulfed by the layer of eerie blue flames.

The bullet burned fiercely in the flames, without even a metallic crack, and in a short moment it melted into a stream of molten iron, dripping onto the ground and disappearing without a trace.

An Xin's expression changed slightly, and her grip on the sniper rifle tightened slightly: "No! The bullets are being blocked by the Yin Fire; this flame is a bit strange!"

A sense of solemnity rose in Lin Yuan's heart. The test just now made him fully understand that the Yin Fire of the Corpse Burning Zombie was extremely special. It could not only burn the flesh and soul, but also restrain the Supreme Yang Divine Lightning and physical attacks. Ordinary attack methods could not break through its defenses at all.

He retreated again, dodging the fiery claws swung by the zombie. The claws grazed his shoulder, and his skin felt a burning pain.

The Corpse-Burning Zombie, having missed its attack, grew even more ferocious. It suddenly opened its mouth, and a thick stream of dark blue flames shot towards Lin Yuan like a jet of fire.

Wherever the eerie fire passed, the air was distorted by the heat, and the withered bones on the ground instantly turned to ashes. The area was so vast that there was no way to avoid it.

"Lightning Shield!" Lin Yuan shouted, and golden divine lightning rapidly intertwined around his body, forming a thick lightning shield in front of him.

"boom--!"

The yin fire crashed violently against the lightning shield, the golden lightning and the ghostly blue flames clashing fiercely, billowing thick smoke!

Lin Wai'an dared not stop, quickly adjusting his aim, avoiding the torso where the Yin Fire was most intense, and targeting the exposed shoulder bone of the cremated zombie—where there was no flame covering, making it the only weak point.

She took a deep breath and pulled the trigger again, the bullet striking her shoulder bone precisely.

Just as the bullet was about to hit, the zombie seemed to sense the danger, and a cluster of eerie flames instantly shot out from its shoulder bone, engulfing the bullet once again.

Both shots were neutralized by the smoldering flames. Anxin frowned and shouted a warning:

"Lin Yuan! It can control Yin Fire to protect its entire body, leaving no absolute weak point! This Yin Fire is effective against all conventional attacks!"

Lin Yuan nodded to indicate that he understood, and the lightning in his palm surged again. He knew that ordinary tests were no longer useful; the Yin Fire of the Corpse Burning Zombie was far more troublesome than he had imagined.

"Roar roar roar roar!"

The cremated zombie roared and pressed closer to Lin Yuan, its ghostly flames raging, turning the entire forest of withered bones into a sea of ​​fire, with charred ashes flying everywhere...
