On the summer solstice, it was clearly seen that the skulls of some humanoid creatures had sunk inwards, their brains had flown out, and they had paid the price with their lives, lying motionless to the side.
However, even when hit by a train, even when their intestines spill out, and even when they suffer injuries that would be fatal to ordinary people, these humanoid creatures are still able to move.
Some of them had broken arms, some had broken legs, and some had their bodies twisted.
Even so, they continued running, crawling, and moving along the ground, trying to catch up with the steel train.

Xia Zhi also discovered that some of the non-limb-mutilation injuries of these injured humanoid creatures were healing at a visible rate.
This is clearly not something that humans can do.
"This looks like a blood zombie. Is it natural or man-made?"
"And why do I have this feeling of déjà vu?"
Tapping his helmet and scanning the speeding steam train with his divine sense, Xia Zhi searched his memory again and suddenly realized.
"It's Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress!"
These creatures are called Kabane, and they will not be destroyed as long as their steel-covered hearts are not destroyed.
The Kabane feed on the blood of the living, turning them into the same monsters.
It is extremely similar to a type of artificial biological weapon called Blood Corpse that Xia Zhi knew about.
"Wait, it seems like there are countless Kabane in this world? Humanity is just barely clinging to life?"
Xia Zhi was stunned at first, then her whole body trembled with excitement.
"Let me see, let me see!"
He roughly grabbed a Kabane with his divine sense and ripped out its soul.
A soul emanating a faint black aura was extracted from Kabane's body by Xia Zhi.
This soul was far more ferocious than ordinary souls. Upon meeting Xia Zhi, it roared repeatedly, attempting to attack him.
"Ha! A demonized soul! What a treasure!"
Xia Zhi, upon seeing this, did not get angry but laughed, as if he had encountered a treasure.
He tried a few more times and discovered that all the Kabane had demonized souls within them.
"Hahaha! Hahaha! That's great! That's fantastic!"
At this moment, Xia Zhi felt as if she had been struck by a huge surprise!
"An entire planet of mutated, demonic blood corpses! This is practically an untouched virgin land! In the 80,000 years of history of the Heavenly Realm, there has probably never been a battle fought by demonic cultivators that has yielded such rich rewards!"
Although the Kabane were transformed from humans, they have been stripped of their human status and are not even considered intelligent beings.
They possess demonized bodies and demonized souls, making them far superior to goblins as materials for magical cultivation!
Most importantly, the vast majority of humans on this entire planet have turned into Kabane, and this was not the work of Summer Solstice!
Even the most powerful demonic cultivators wouldn't dare to turn hundreds of millions of people into blood corpses for weapon forging!
Otherwise, they would have been struck down by divine punishment long ago!
Xia Zhi used her divine sense to analyze the components of the Kabane and determine their uses.
"The Kabane are creatures with the properties of steel and fire, as well as demonic souls, making them perfect for forging bone swords! I happen to have a basic bone sword as material."
"Once all the Kabane in the world are integrated into the White Bone Sword, this sword will definitely be no worse than the natal flying sword I use in the Heavenly Realm, and may even be better!"
The summer solstice has already been planned.
Every time he uses his primordial spirit, it consumes a large amount of divine consciousness, and he needs three months to recover.
In other words, they can harvest once every three months in this world, and each harvest can cover an area of hundreds of miles!
"Unfortunately, the only drawback is that there are too many souls. Even demonic cultivation techniques must be practiced step by step. The excess can only be used for refining weapons."
Xia Zhi had an irrepressible smile on her face, but she pretended to sigh and said something that would make every demonic cultivator feel like they were at Versailles.
"Otherwise, if I devour tens of thousands of souls at once, my strength will recover quickly!"
"Let's set a small goal first: to cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage in this world!"
The upper limit of a low-level spiritual energy world is the Nascent Soul stage.
In other words, unless it becomes unbearable to stay in this world, Xia Zhi will stay here and not leave!
Throwing a demonic cultivator into this world is like throwing a rat into a rice jar full of rice, or sending a dragon into a treasure trove full of gold coins and gems!
We've won so much we're numb!
……
Just do it.
Xia Zhi had just arrived in this world, and her spiritual consciousness was still abundant.
He patted the scabbard at his waist, and with a surge of magic, the White Bone Sword was unsheathed on its own and flew into the sky.
At the same time, he astrally left his body, spreading his divine sense far and wide.
Using the Kabane he had captured as a medium, the old demon in the Tribulation Transcending stage transformed his divine sense into countless invisible hands, capturing all the Kabane within a radius of a hundred miles!
Just like when we forged the White Bone Banner before.
Xia Zhi's tiny spirit kept making hand seals and chanting incantations.
In the sky, divine sense surged like waves, transforming into spells that poured into the White Bone Sword.
Each spell would engulf hundreds of Kabane, transforming them into streaks of crimson and black light that shot into the White Bone Sword.
As Xia Zhi infused more magic into the sword, the White Bone Sword gradually changed color.
A steam train dozens of miles away, or, in this world's parlance, above Juncheng.
The samurai pressed their steam guns against the firing ports, their expressions tense as they peered out through the observation eyes, ready to fire back the Kabane that had pounced on Junjo.
When the clanging sound of the Kabane striking the Junjo disappeared, the samurai responsible for transporting the goods all breathed a sigh of relief.
These days, transporting goods can be a deadly job!
Unfortunately, no one dared to stick their head out of Juncheng and look up at the sky, otherwise they would have surely discovered this amazing sight.
Unlike the Five Elements White Bone Banner made of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, which mainly played a supporting role, this one is different.
Xia Zhi plans to use this White Bone Sword as her natal flying sword, pursuing its destructive power.
Kabane possesses the properties of fire and steel. Therefore, flying swords made of Kabane should focus on the physical properties of steel, such as sharpness, sturdiness, and armor penetration, as well as the burning properties of fire.
A large amount of Kabane was melted into the Bone Sword, and the color of the Bone Sword changed from pure white to reddish-black.
Black makes up the majority of the design, while red is used only as an accent for the tassel pattern.
It looks just like a sword-shaped Kabane.
Xia Zhi poured the last thirty incantations, along with her heart's blood, into the White Bone Sword, and her primordial spirit returned to the Niwan Palace.
Meanwhile, the headaches that summer solstice has become a habit return.
The White Bone Sword, which was in perfect harmony with Xia Zhi, descended from the sky and landed in front of him, where Xia Zhi grasped it in his hand.
At this moment, the White Bone Sword had changed from its previous pure white appearance to a black steel color with a metallic luster.
On the black sword blade, there flowed crimson flame patterns like veins.
Staring at it for too long will attract your attention and make you want to pick it up and chop something.
Seeing blood would be ideal.
"As expected, demonic magic weapons require a large amount of flesh and blood and souls to be refined. This flying sword has transformed from a Foundation Establishment magic weapon into a Golden Core magic weapon in an instant, showing some of the aura of a 'demonic sword'."
Xia Zhi nodded in satisfaction, made a hand seal, and absorbed the White Bone Sword into her dantian.
"With a Golden Core-level natal flying sword, even a Foundation Establishment cultivator can try to fly. In this world full of Kabane, having the ability to fly will be much more convenient."
Chapter 39 The Search (Please add to your favorites and vote for this book)
Summer Solstice removed the armor that hindered movement and the helmet that obstructed vision, and hung them on the tree.
He wore a leather armor that allowed him to move easily, and carried a bag as he walked south.
To counter the Kabane threat, the shogunate that ruled Japan built fortified settlements called "post stations" throughout the country.
The only vehicle capable of traveling between the stations was an armored locomotive named "Juncheng".
In other words, apart from the post station and Juncheng, there are no other human settlements on this island nation.
Then, the source of food became a problem.
Golden Core cultivators can live on air and dew, but Foundation Establishment cultivators still need to eat regular meals.
In the Heavenly Realm, there is a "Bigu Pill" that can keep you full for a day if you eat one.
That won't work here.
Summer Solstice's divine sense had basically scanned the entire forest and discovered a small river about two or three kilometers to the south, with many fish, shrimp, and crabs swimming in it.
Summer Solstice didn't bring much dry food, only enough for three days, so he wanted to save every bit he could.
After walking for ten minutes, Xia Zhi could already hear the sound of the river flowing.
In this world, while humans can turn into Kabane, animals are not affected.
He came to the riverbank, looked at the crystal-clear river, about two meters wide, only slightly larger than a stream, and drew the white bone throwing knife from his waist.
Whoosh whoosh!
After standing by the river for a while, Xia Zhi threw out three throwing knives, which flew into the river like sharp arrows.
A short while later, three bluefish, each as long as a forearm and with their heads pierced by white bone throwing knives, floated to the surface.
Xia Zhi picked up the three fish and put them aside. Then she took off her shoes, rolled up her trousers, and went into the river to catch some river shrimp that were almost transparent.
Arriving in a world brimming with experience points and materials, he was in a great mood, almost like he was having a picnic, humming a song as he gathered some twigs to use as firewood.
He lit a fire, threaded three branches through the fish's mouths, and stuck three bluefish next to the fire.
Using this ancient method to grill fish, it is not necessary to remove the fish's scales first.
When the fish is cooked, its scales will be charred and stuck together, making them easy to tear apart.
In this world, you never know when a few Kabane might run out in the wild.
Let alone having a picnic in the forest, even leaving the rest stop could be life-threatening at any time.
However, all the Kabane within a hundred miles had been used by Xia Zhi to forge swords, and they were all very safe until Kabane from other places migrated here.
……
They were eating hot, grilled fish while fragrant river shrimp were cooking in front of them.
Sitting by the river watching the sunset, I witnessed the orange glow enveloping the entire forest, as if draped in a light orange veil.
Xia Zhi added a few more pieces of firewood to the fire, held a grilled fish in his left hand, and gently rubbed his temples with his right hand to relieve the pain in his head.
After having a hot dinner, Xia Zhi set up a warning spell around the area, which would make a loud noise if touched, and then found a flat spot to lie down.
After becoming a Foundation Establishment cultivator and gaining magical power, Xia Zhi's sleep time was greatly reduced.
Now he only needs to sleep for 5 hours, plus a nap in between, to ensure he is refreshed for 48 hours.
Therefore, when the summer solstice awakens, it is still dark.
But Xia Zhi was already preparing to set off.
He decided to get to the vicinity of the railway tracks first, and then follow the railway to find the post station.
In this world, Xia Zhi doesn't intend to make a quick buck and leave; she plans to stay permanently.
So Xia Zhi decided to find a post station and become the city lord in this world where order is gradually collapsing.
He was also skilled in spells used for farming, such as "Rainy Day Spell" and "Farming Spell".
With a stick in one hand and a carrot in the other, it's quite simple to live a self-sufficient life within one's own territory.
Perhaps because no one has fished in the wild for a long time, the fish here are all very plump.
