Chapter 23: Corpse Qi (Middle)

  A person in the air, Qin Yifan made a nimble roll, both feet landed on the ground, and retreated several steps with the momentum, dissipating the huge attacking power of the dark corpse. Because of the internal force protecting his body, there was no pain at all. However, this punch just now had taught Qin Yifan about the power of the dark corpse, but he didn't know whether that punch was a full-force attack or held back.

  Someone actually shouted out such a voice at this time, and it was above their head. It's very clear that they must be a cultivator. However, what kind of cultivator is so fierce that they dare to fly by the side of Fist Mark Lake?

  Just as he was amazed, the sound in the air suddenly changed tone, a low hum, as if it also contained extreme pain. Upon hearing this sound, Qin Yifan nodded slightly in his heart, that's right, without even looking at what place, it can fly randomly?

  It was clearly the fight between Qin Yifan and Yin Shi that caught the man's attention, and he recognized Yin Shi's identity, which is why he shouted like that. It seems that he should have just arrived, not seeing the previous process, or there would be such a misunderstanding. Moreover, with Qin Yifan's keen senses, it was impossible for someone to spy on them for so long at such a close distance without being discovered.

  No matter what, this person should be a good guy, at least he's someone who hates evil. Such a person, Qin Yifan wouldn't turn against him because of a misunderstanding, after all, the other party also saw the dark corpse attacking himself and was knocked flying, it can be said that it was for his own sake.

  "Go back first." A low command was given, and the dark corpse didn't say anything, disappearing suddenly. After that, Qin Yifan raised his head to look at the sky, waiting for someone to fall from above. Just now, it seemed like there was a kind of illusion, when he was knocked flying out, the dark corpse actually had a bit of an emotion similar to worry, but that feeling was very vague and couldn't be confirmed.

  It seems that the person above is still quite skilled, even in such a situation, he can still control his body to slowly float down instead of falling like Qin Yifan imagined. However, as soon as he landed, he spat out a mouthful of blood and sat there, unable to get up for a while. This way, it's not about exorcising demons or evil spirits, just being able to stay alive is good enough.

  A middle-aged man, looking around forty years old, but this must not be his real age. For these cultivators who can ascend to heaven and descend to earth, physiognomy means nothing. His clothes look very ordinary, if he hadn't come down from above, at first glance, one would definitely think he was an ordinary scholar.

  "Let's go quickly!" The middle-aged man, however, was determined to save Qin Yifan thoroughly and urged him hastily: "That zombie is fierce, it's just been startled away by me for now, who knows when it will come back, let's hurry up!"

  Qin Yifan smiled secretly in his heart, but still walked over to help him up. The middle-aged man with a face of over 40 years old called himself an old man, which was really interesting. Following his address, Qin Yifan replied: "Old sir, it's okay, I have a guest house on the other side of the mountain, let me take you there to rest!"

  "Are you the boss here?" The middle-aged man couldn't pretend to be calm at this time, his body was seriously injured and needed treatment. But it's strange that he asked this question.

  He nodded, and Qin Yifan acknowledged his identity. The man looked at him for a long time, didn't say much, and didn't try to persuade him to escape or anything, but quietly returned to the inn with Qin Yifan's support.

  He had just arranged a guest room and was about to remind him that he couldn't practice his skills here, but he seemed to have already understood what Qin Yifan wanted to say. He opened his mouth and said, "No need to say it, I understand. This place can't be used for practicing skills or healing injuries. I know."

  This person surprisingly knows everything, and it's likely that his source of information doesn't have many options - Zhang Chong, Li Song, Zhou Qing, or Huang Banshan. If I'm not mistaken, this young old man should be a senior or mentor to one of them, otherwise he wouldn't know so clearly.

  It's better this way, at least I don't have to waste my breath explaining anything. I suppose that's why they didn't ask many questions when they found out their identity and were attacked by the dark corpse. I wonder which family's elder is so easy to talk to, it seems their younger generation has done a thorough job of spreading the word.

  It's likely that the middle-aged man is now regretting his decision to rush and save Qin Yifan, not realizing that he would end up in such a predicament. However, what he didn't expect was that flying around recklessly here posed just as much danger as being controlled by an underground corpse, always risking falling from the sky. Even if he didn't make a sound, he would still get hurt for offending certain moldy heads.

  Although he said so, Qin Yifan was very grateful, so he was very polite to that person. Since he knew his own identity, he must have known other rules as well. This time, their elders came out, and they must have had something to discuss or other purposes. Everything will wait until he recovers from his injuries!

  The power of the dark corpse is absolutely stronger than any martial arts master Qin Yifan has ever seen, and even Qin Yifan himself is far from being a match for the dark corpse in terms of strength. It's truly admirable how the people who cultivated the dark corpse were able to create such a powerful monster, with a force that can almost rival a trebuchet, and might even surpass it. If used to attack cities and plunder lands, it would surely be invincible.

  I don't know what other means of attack the corpse has, the corpse is invulnerable to swords and guns, water and fire can't invade it, this is what I heard from the corpse itself, proficient in the five elements escape technique, others seem not to have heard. It's just strange that how did the corpse know about the Tian Gang Di Sha array and even used its own body to arrange it? These doubts are all in my mind, but now that this middle-aged old man has come, I can only wait for the opportunity to verify later.

  The old man had brought his own medicine, the kind that really works, and was well-prepared, showing that he had come prepared. But what's puzzling is that if he knew about the problem here, why did he still come from mid-air? However, thinking again, it makes sense. No matter whose elder he is, as an elder, of course, he can't be troubled by his disciples' troubles like a disciple would, and must appear to be much wiser than his disciples in order to have such a scene.

  If that's the case, then this old man was also lucky and wasn't blasted by the red light from the lake's elder brother. Otherwise, he wouldn't have had the chance to slowly descend while injured, and his ending would definitely be falling from the sky. At his height at the time, it seemed like there were no other possibilities besides dying on the spot. Cultivators, although their Daoist techniques are profound, once they lose this reliance, their frail bodies are much weaker than those of martial practitioners.

  What is his purpose for coming here? Is it for the sake of the artifact or for cultivation?
