However, as the lightning swept past the two, the lightning's owner merely glanced at them with indifferent eyes before disappearing without a trace.

When it reappeared, it was already in front of the zombie with its intestines hanging from its neck.

"Crack!! Thud!! Thud!!" A sharp claw slammed down, and the well-mannered zombie was instantly cleaved in two as if struck by a runaway train, then flew out and crashed into the wall.

He was smashed to pieces, clearly beyond dead.

Then, the lightning leaped a few times and disappeared.

"Ahhh!! They're going to bury my sister alive!!"

"Ying Gou!! Shut up!!"

Immediately afterward, amidst the thick dust, came the screams of Ying Gou and Jiang Chen, as well as Jiang Chen's loud shouts.

"Boom!!!"

After the final roar subsided, the thick dust slowly dispersed.

The Corviknight flew in the sky, enveloped by a shield of Aura power.

"Wow, amazing!" Li Xiaoyue said, her voice trembling slightly as she looked at the ground gradually emerging.

A deep, abyss-like crack appeared in the street below, the crack resembling a deep scratch carved into the earth.

Within a radius of ten miles, only ruins and broken walls remain; there are hardly any intact buildings or houses left.

"Steel Crow, go down." Zhao Xuan heard Li Xiaoyue's words but didn't react, so he directly ordered the Steel Crow to land.

Zhao Xuan had anticipated such widespread destruction.

Moreover, Zhao Xuan had witnessed the battle of a near-heavenly king firsthand.

For example, Li Dong from Shanghai, and Xu Hongdou.

That kind of power is truly devastating. Take Hongdou for example; during the bizarre secret realm, the entire Shennongjia area was practically flattened.

Therefore, Zhao Xuan didn't feel much emotion about the damage caused by the Steel Crow.

Upon receiving the command, the Steelraven flapped its wings and slowly descended.

"Xiaoyue, come down." Zhao Du helped Li Xiaoyue, whose legs were a little weak, off the back of the Steel Raven (CCEC).

Just as the two dismounted from the Steelraven's back, a flash of lightning appeared, and a majestic creature with blue-black fur still crackling with electricity slammed its thick limbs into the ground, leaving scorched marks.

When those cold, sharp eyes saw Zhao Xuan, they became docile, like those of a pet.

This was indeed Luke the Cat. Zhao Xuan patted Luke the Cat's big head and praised, "Thank you for your hard work, Luke the Cat."

"Aww~~" Lux cat let out a comfortable meow.

Lekcat was sent by Zhao Xuan to chase after the command-type zombie. After all, given the speed of the four zombie ancestors, Zhao Xuan didn't have high expectations, so he let Lekcat take the lead.

In terms of speed, Luxray is the fastest among his four Pokémon, second only to Corviknight.

Even with Poison Baby's elite-level strength, it's no match for Leccat in terms of speed.

And Kodora goes without saying.

That's a tank-shaped Pokémon; it probably can't even run as fast as the others.

"What a huge Luccat!" Li Xiaoyue exclaimed as she looked at the Luccat up close.

As an employee of the breeding center, Li Xiaoyue knows a lot about Pokémon. How could she introduce each Pokémon if she didn't know them?

Therefore, he is very knowledgeable about Luccats. A normal Luccat is only about 1.3 meters tall, while Zhao Xuan's Luccat is at least 2 meters tall.

This is clearly not a normal Luccat.

"Hehe." Zhao Xuan chuckled upon hearing Li Xiaoyue's words and said, "My Lupus is a Totem Pokémon, so it's normal for it to be this big."

"No wonder it's so big," Li Xiaoyue said, suddenly realizing.

Li Xiaoyue also knew about the Totem Pokémon; it was even rarer than pseudo-legendary Pokémon.

Both its aptitude and power are superior to those of ordinary Pokémon.

"Thump thump!! Crash!!"

"Boom! Boom!"

Suddenly, the sound of a wall collapsing came from not far away, followed by several voices complaining.

"Cough cough cough!! I was almost buried alive!"

"Hou Qing, you bastard, you actually used me as a shield!"

"Ah! Bury me alive right now!"

"Yinggou, move aside!"

Zhao Xuan and Li Xiaoyue turned their heads and saw that the four Corpse Ancestors looked as if they had just come out of the mine.

The four Corpse Ancestors stood up, dusted themselves off, and saw Zhao Xuan, Li Xiaoyue, Steel Armored Raven, and Lecter.

Chapter 111 Cthulhu!

It was dark, on a somewhat dilapidated building.

In a dilapidated house, Zhao Xuan and Li Xiaoyue sat together, while opposite them sat the four great corpse ancestors of the surrendered officials.

A fire was burning between them, and the flames illuminated their faces, making them appear red.

"Hey, what are you guys doing following us?" Zhao Xuan handed a piece of bread to Li Xiaoyue, looking at the four goofballs opposite him, and said irritably.

Zhao Xuan originally just wanted to ask the four people how they got here, but these four guys, like Qin Feng and the other two, didn't know anything when asked.

Seeing this, Zhao Xuan and Li Xiaoyue left.

But the four guys stuck to them like glue.

"Hehe, don't be angry, young man. It's fate that we met," Hou Qing said with a smile.

“Yes, yes, Hou Qing is right, we are destined to meet.” Ying Gou nodded repeatedly, munching on the bread in her hand, and then changed the subject, saying, “This bun is so delicious.”

"Brother, could you tell me where this place is, and what those monsters are?" Jiang Chen asked.

For the surrendered official, the priority now is to clarify everything that's going on here; otherwise, she wouldn't have followed Zhao Xuan and the others all the way.

"I don't know either. We got here by accident too," Zhao Xuan said, shrugging.

Zhao Xuan is also confused about what kind of world this is. He had his Corviknight fly around Huan City for almost a whole day, but it still couldn't fly out of Huan City, which made Zhao Xuan very puzzled.

At Steelraven's speed, even in his own world of Shanghai, he could fly out of Shanghai in a single day.

But after flying for a whole day, we still couldn't see the city's borders.

Upon hearing this, some of the four surrendered officials showed thoughtful expressions.

"And those monsters are called zombies. You'd better not let them scratch you, or you might turn into one of their kind," Zhao Xuan then added.

Although we don't know if the zombies here are infectious, we should still be on the safe side.

After all, he wouldn't risk testing the poison on himself.

"Ah! It'll get infected!! Jiangchen, quickly check me to see if I've been scratched. I don't want to become one of those monsters!" Upon hearing this, Ying Gou panicked and frantically checked her body to see if she had been scratched.

The surrendered minister and the marquis slapped their foreheads speechlessly at the sight, while the fierce demon acted as if it hadn't seen anything.

Although Jiang Chen and the others were somewhat surprised by what they had been infected with, they were only surprised. The four Corpse Ancestors were originally involved in crooked and evil practices.

These situations are not much different from their Gu poison.

Li Xiaoyue looked at Ying Gou and her expression became a little strange. Ying Gou seemed to be not very smart.

Zhao Xuan looked at Ying Gou speechlessly.

"Poisonous Poison~~" Poisonous Baby suddenly called out twice to Zhao Xuan.

"Poison Baby, what's wrong?" Zhao Xuan asked, looking at Poison Baby with some confusion.

"Poisonous Poison~~" Poison Baby pointed outside with one finger.

Zhao Xuan stood up and followed Poison Baby to the edge of the building. Li Xiaoyue followed closely behind. In this dangerous world, Li Xiaoyue could only feel safe by staying by Zhao Xuan's side.

Seeing this, the four surrendered officials also came over to see what was going on.

When the group reached the edge of the building, they followed Poison Baby's finger and saw below them a scene resembling a procession of ghosts.

Below them, a chilling aura hung heavy, the dark energy permeating all the streets below.

The moment Zhao Xuan's fingertips touched the rusty railing, a bone-chilling coldness shot up his spine from his knuckles.

Under his gaze, the surrounding buildings seemed to melt away.

The asphalt road surface churned like melted chocolate, dark red liquid seeping from the cracks. The zombies, which should have been dead, were now eerily still, countless writhing lumps bulging beneath their rotting skin, as if hundreds of maggots were mating beneath their skin.

Even more suffocating was the black fog that shrouded the streets—it wasn't ordinary fog, but a living thing composed of countless tiny particles, which was visibly devouring the last glow of the streetlights.

"Xiao Xuan, what's going on?" Li Xiaoyue's voice trembled as she gripped Zhao Xuan's clothes tightly. Thirty stories below them, a skeleton covered in bits of flesh suddenly twitched and stood up, two eerie green phosphorescent lights flickering in its empty eye sockets.

"Poison!!" Poison Baby suddenly let out a sharp screech, and purple venom condensed into a swirling vortex around its body.

·· ··Requesting flowers···· ··

Zhao Xuan whirled around and saw the mold on the wall behind him multiplying rapidly, with bluish-gray mycelia spreading across the concrete surface like blood vessels. Hou Qing, one of the Four Corpse Ancestors, suddenly drew a bone flute from his waist and blew out a series of piercing notes. The mycelia contracted rapidly as if they had been scalded.

"At the third quarter of midnight, yin and yang are reversed." The surrendered official's red skirt fluttered in the eerie wind as she calculated with her nail-painted fingers. "This city... is devouring people."

As if to confirm her words, a deafening roar of crumbling bricks and stones echoed from afar. An old-fashioned residential building from the 1990s appeared to be being kneaded by an invisible giant hand, its reinforced concrete twisted into a pretzel shape.

Even more terrifying were the dark figures emerging from the cracks—ancient soldiers in armor riding skeletal warhorses, their hooves leaving behind blood-red spider lilies on the asphalt.

 …

"Look over there!" Hou Qing suddenly pointed northwest. On the ruins of the collapsed shopping mall, hundreds of zombies were kneeling in a pilgrimage-like posture.

Their rotting heads were neatly turned in one direction, their murky eyes reflecting a bluish-gray flame suspended in mid-air. Each time the flame flickered, inhuman howls erupted from the horde of zombies.

"Boom!!" Suddenly, the entire building shook violently. Under everyone's gaze, the glass curtain wall of the office building opposite shattered, and countless official documents flew like snowflakes.

Amidst the rain of paper scraps, a three-meter-tall bronze coffin slowly rises, its lid covered in burning runes. The crisp sound of breaking chains, mixed with some ancient whispers, echoes through the night sky.

Li Xiaoyue suddenly grabbed Zhao Xuan's wrist, her pupils shrinking to pinpoints: "Xiao Xuan, the moonlight... the moonlight is in the wrong place!" Following her trembling finger, three blood moons were hanging high in the sky, casting everyone's shadows in three different directions.

Beneath their feet, the shadows were slowly... crawling out of the ground.

"Poison!!"

The vortex of venom surrounding Poison Baby suddenly swelled, corroding the first shadow tentacles that lunged at it into wisps of smoke. But more shadowy figures were surging in from all directions, some of which even revealed the outlines of the Four Great Corpse Ancestors.

"Cthulhu!" Thousand.

Chapter 112 An Endless Mountain of Flesh!

Suddenly, Zhao Xuan and his group unconsciously uttered these three words.

As soon as they finished speaking, they all unconsciously looked at each other.

However, now is not the time to talk about this. Zhao Xuan waved his hand, and the wave power swept across, extinguishing the fire instantly and plunging the surroundings into darkness.

Those eerie shadows vanished instantly.

The group then looked outside.

Outside, countless pale faces appeared—a woman in a cheongsam leading a zombie child whose body was covered in sores, and even several giant spiders with human faces gnawing on lampposts.

"Waaaaah!!! Waaaaah!!"

Suddenly, the entire city was filled with the cries of a baby, the sound piercing through eardrums and stabbing straight into the brain. The surrendered officials and their men involuntarily groaned, half-falling to the ground.

"Hmph~~".

Zhao Xuan pressed his temples tightly, and through his increasingly blurred vision, he saw the distant horizon begin to undulate—countless skyscrapers automatically reassembled themselves like building blocks, highways coiled into a Möbius strip in the air, and on the exterior wall of the building where they were, a countdown written in blood slowly appeared:

23:59:48

The moment the Blood Moon countdown reached 23:45:12, a million steel needles suddenly exploded in everyone's minds.

Zhao Xuan's wave-guiding power automatically protected his body, but deep in his consciousness he saw countless translucent neural synapses growing—those pale pink hyphae penetrated the skull, weaving a shimmering silver net between the sulci of his brain.
