Chapter 120 Advancement to White Zombie

As the two walked out of the hearth, the old peach tree standing next to the ancestral hall suddenly stretched out its branches.

Just when Gu Qinghan thought there was danger.

A peach appeared out of nothing on a branch of the peach tree, and within a few breaths it grew rapidly to the size of a fist, landing heavily in Gu Qinghan's hand.

The whole peach is plump, juicy, and bright red, exuding an intoxicating aroma.

Gu Qinghan glanced to the side and saw a hunched old man appearing faintly beneath the peach tree, bowing to her with his hands clasped.

Just as she was about to step forward, the figure vanished from her sight like a mirage.

Gu Qinghan felt completely bewildered.

It seems that the old peach tree is also connected to the hearth, or at least to the ancestors who lived in the hearth.

She turned to look at the peach in her hand, hesitating for a moment.

This thing looks like some kind of precious elixir, but we don't know if it's poisonous.

Moreover, the drawback of being a zombie is that it is difficult to swallow anything, no matter what you eat. Grass balls, planks, rocks and other dead things are okay, but once you eat something alive, your esophagus and stomach will feel like they are being burned.

Aside from human flesh and blood, no other food had any effect on her.

Although she hesitated internally, her body wouldn't obey her; she swallowed the peach whole in one gulp.

In a short time.

Gu Qinghan's expression changed slightly.

She had been eating grass pills, but they couldn't relieve her hunger; they just gave her something to chew on. But now, after swallowing this peach, she felt full for the first time.

The hunger that had been lingering all along vanished at that moment.

Gu Qinghan felt completely relaxed, with power surging from every part of his body.

The purplish-red lividity on her skin gradually disappeared, and the previously torn and decaying flesh began to heal and grow back.

A long-lost vitality surged from her body.

Like a withered tree coming back to life.

Her skin was whiter than snow, completely undamaged, and she looked completely different from before.

"A white zombie? I've been promoted!"

Gu Qinghan was surprised.

She never expected that a single peach would have such a powerful effect, prompting her to take this step.

To know.

Her current bizarre physique makes advancement several times more difficult than that of ordinary zombies.

Furthermore, she had never used the method of raising corpses to refine her own body; she relied entirely on absorbing the corpse energy from the fire pit and the spiritual fruit from earlier.

The feeling of fullness in the chest and abdomen gradually subsided.

After this promotion, Gu Qinghan has almost figured out that eating ordinary things has no effect on a zombie body.

She craved flesh and blood because it would allow her to advance in rank.

The zombies' thirst for human flesh stems from their desire for continuous evolution and breakthroughs in their physical bodies.

This is a thirst for power, a thirst for a leap in the level of life.

Therefore, after a short while of advancement, the effects of the spiritual fruit wore off, and an even more intense and overwhelming hunger returned to the body.

He Mu was incredulous when he saw this beautiful woman who had suddenly changed.

In his eyes, the original Gu Qinghan had a head of dry, yellow, and messy hair, and his whole body exuded a strange stench. Coupled with the purplish-red spots on his skin and forehead, he was as terrifying as could be, just like a living corpse.

However, at this moment...

Gu Qinghan had flowing black hair, skin as white as snow, and a breathtakingly beautiful face. The stench of death on her body had completely dissipated, and she even smelled of sweet and delicious green fruit.

Just like that peach from before.

He Mu has always been a farmer in a rural mountain village. From childhood to adulthood, the women around him have all worked in the fields at the edge of the village. They have done a lot of farm work, which has made their skin rough and their appearance prematurely aged.

He had never seen a woman so beautiful, like a noble lady or a fairy descended from heaven, and his eyes widened in disbelief.

The next moment.

Gu Qinghan turned his head to the side, his fierce gaze devouring anyone who looked like a predator, and a murderous aura swept over them.

He Mu felt as if he were being stared at by a prehistoric beast. His legs went weak, and he immediately knelt on the ground, his hair standing on end.

monster!

It's still that same monster!

It might even be more terrifying than before.

He quickly lowered his head, not daring to look any further.

Gu Qinghan withdrew his gaze.

If it weren't for the Celestial Venerable controlling her body, He Mu would have already turned into a pile of rotten flesh and been swallowed by the stomach.

"I'm still hungry, but after becoming a white zombie, hunger won't affect my strength."

When she was most severely hungry, she would have no strength left in her body, and only after sleeping in the coffin could she slowly recover.

The biggest difference between white zombies and purple zombies is that white zombies can absorb corpse energy to a certain extent, and the marks on their skin will gradually disappear. At the same time, a corpse aura can appear inside their bodies.

This is the malevolent aura unique to zombies.

He Mu was frightened just now because he was struck by a malevolent spirit.

"The cultivation of the Corpse Path has always been about cultivators using various methods of controlling, raising, refining, and utilizing corpses to create powerful zombies. But in my current situation, I've completely gone astray."

Gu Qinghan didn't know what to do either.

Because she wanted to return to human form, she had been deliberately suppressing the changes in her zombie body, but it seemed that...

It's not something she can stop just by trying to suppress it.

not to mention.

Without sufficient strength, there's no way to transform back into human form.

"Zombies aren't so bad. At least they're strong enough and don't have all the weaknesses of humans," Gu Qinghan comforted himself as he walked outside.

She gradually adapted to the changes brought about by the white zombie body. The most obvious change was that the purple zombie's corpse spots were gone, making her more like a human. She no longer had to worry about others easily noticing the difference.

She had just turned into a white zombie when her features were least noticeable.

If one continues to improve in the path of the corpse, the hair on the entire body of the white zombie will turn snow-white.

Although He Mu was quite frightened, he dared not leave at this moment. Moreover, he had a wife and daughter at home. Only if this strange man who claimed to be from the government could resolve the trouble in Songziwan, his family could be saved.

"The boat-mooring area has long been abandoned. It used to be a place to moor boats, but since we started eating spirit rice, almost no one goes fishing there anymore," He Mu explained as he walked.

Gu Qinghan paused, "If no one is fishing, why are the fishing boats from Songzi Bay going to Jiang'an City to deliver goods?"

"What delivery? The fishing boats haven't been out here for at least six months. I remember one night there was a strong wind that blew the boat dock area to smithereens, and no one has come to repair it yet."

He Mu said it as a matter of course.

Gu Qinghan frowned.

So the villagers' and the innkeepers' stories about waiting for the boat were all fabricated; they just wanted to keep people in the village.

What do the people in Songzi Bay want to do?

What exactly is their relationship with the Buddhist temple?

Gu Qinghan felt that to find out the truth, they should find the current village chief and ask him for some information.

But now she no longer has control over her body.

The Celestial Venerable did not think so, and even quickened his pace toward the boat dock.

But they hadn't gone far when a dispute suddenly broke out at the village entrance, and a group of villagers started fighting with the outsider shepherd.
