Chapter Nineteenth: Flesh Lingzhi

  What's going on? Is this the latest chapter of "The Sword of the Immortal"? The little sword is extremely sharp, cutting through the thousand-year-old corpse's skull like it was tofu. This corpse monkey may be fierce, but compared to the thousand-year-old corpse's copper skin and iron bones, it's still far inferior.

  There was only a "plop" sound. The small sword fiercely stabbed into the corpse monkey's skull, almost without any resistance, but this corpse monkey was indeed ferocious, and even though its skull had been pierced through, it still didn't die. Instead, it opened its big mouth and let out a strange "squeak", then opened its jaws wide, staring at me with blood-red eyes, and fiercely bit towards me.

  I held the zombie's neck with my right hand, not letting it bite me, and gripped the small sword that had pierced its skull tightly with my left hand. I gritted my teeth and let out a loud shout. Then, I pulled the sword back hard, and the zombie's skull was cut off by the sword in an instant. The foul-smelling brain pulp and pus splattered all over my body and face.

  At this time, I couldn't care about the nausea anymore. With one push, I shoved the corpse of the dead monkey away and immediately stumbled to my feet, turning my head to look at Old Sun.

  At this moment, Sun Lao Gui and three to five corpse monkeys are entangled together. Those corpse monkeys' bodies are much larger than the ones that were entangling me, it seems these corpse monkeys also know that Sun Lao Gui is not easy to deal with, almost all the main forces are entwined in a fierce battle with him.

  Even if Sun Lao Gui was more powerful, he couldn't withstand the crazy attacks of so many corpse monkeys. Before long, a mournful howl was heard from him, and his arms and chest were all scratched with blood-soaked wounds by the corpse monkeys.

  I and Sun Lao Gui are now like ants on a rope, if he dies, I won't be able to live either. Thinking of this, I cursed loudly and rushed towards Sun Lao Gui's side.

  But then, a strange cry of 'squeak' came out, and afterwards, I don't know where it came from, a dead monkey suddenly jumped up and rushed towards me.

  The corpse monkey jumped up high and crashed into my chest, feeling like it had hit a huge boulder. I couldn't help but let out a loud "ahh" as I was knocked to the ground amidst the pile of bones.

  At this time, under the pile of bones, there were densely packed corpse tortoises crawling in and out. After those corpse tortoises crawled out, they gathered on the bone pile, making a ruckus and crawling around, but did not launch an attack on us. It should be that the Corpse Tortoise King has not appeared yet.

  But when I was knocked down by the corpse monkey, it seemed to have startled those corpse turtles. All I heard was a strange cry, and then they all crawled towards my head, covering the sky and earth.

  My god, compared to the corpse monkeys, this group of corpse turtles gives me an even stronger sense of fear. When I saw them crawling towards me, I was almost scared to pee my pants, and at this moment, they are only a short distance of less than five or six meters away from my head!

  I gritted my teeth and let out a loud curse, then turned my head to look at the corpse monkey that had pounced on me.

  This corpse monkey has a very large body, with bright red eyes. If it were any bigger, it would be an exact replica of King Kong.

  At this moment, the corpse monkey was gaping its big mouth, furiously roaring at me, and then, it suddenly used its head to heavily bump against my head.

  This collision made me dizzy and almost fainted, I bit my teeth tightly, then raised the small sword and stabbed it into the throat of the corpse monkey.

  But this corpse monkey's reaction speed was too fast, and it actually grabbed my wrist with one hand, then lifted another front paw and scratched my chest fiercely.

  "Ah!"

  The corpse monkey's claws were very sharp, and with one swipe, they tore my skin open, causing a burning pain that spread throughout my body. I let out a loud cry, but the blood in my veins was also stirred up, and with eyes wide open and a ferocious expression, I let out a loud roar at the corpse monkey. Then, with my right hand, I grabbed onto the corpse monkey's fur and pulled it with force.

  Squeak!...

  The corpse monkey let out a strange cry, and the monkey hair on its body was actually pulled off along with the skin and flesh in a big handful. The corpse monkey jumped up high in pain, and I took advantage of the opportunity to get up, my left hand sword inserted into the corpse monkey's belly, then grabbed its body and threw it into the pile of corpse turtles.

  The number of corpses here is not many, compared to the corpse tide on Mantou Mountain, it's even more insignificant. But even so, the densely packed corpses are enough to make people tremble with fear. And when I threw that corpse monkey into the pile of corpses, it let out a terrified cry and jumped up high, trying to escape.

  But those corpse turtles reacted quickly, almost instantly hanging on its body, and in the blink of an eye, they drilled into the corpse monkey's body. A mournful cry was heard from the corpse monkey's mouth, and then the corpse monkey fell straight into the pile of corpse turtles, instantly submerged by them.

  I swallowed my saliva, and at this moment, I heard Sun Lao Gui let out a loud cry. I turned my head to look, and saw that Sun Lao Gui was ignoring the two corpses of monkeys behind him, only using his left hand to hold one of the corpses, punching it with his fist like a stormy rain, causing the corpse's brains to splatter everywhere. The other two corpses took advantage of the situation and bit down on Sun Lao Gui's back, causing him to cry out in pain and fall to the ground. I saw this and rushed towards him, without saying a word, directly raising my small sword and stabbing it into one of the corpse's neck, then using force to pull, causing blood to splatter everywhere, and beheading the corpse.

  But the corpse monkey's mouth was still biting on Sun Lao Gui's body, and at this moment its head was cut off by me, yet it still didn't let go, Sun Lao Gui was so angry that he cursed loudly and punched the corpse monkey's head to pieces.

  The remaining corpse monkey saw its companion die and didn't entangle with us anymore, but instead turned around to run. Sun Lao Gui had suffered such a great loss, how could he let it escape? With one leap, he grabbed the corpse monkey's hind leg. At this time, those two fierce ghosts also settled their respective opponents, turned back, opened their mouths wide and bit through the corpse monkey's neck in one bite.

  In a brief moment, Sun the old ghost and I finished off seven or eight corpse monkeys. The process is too complicated to describe, but it all happened in the flash of flint fire.

  So many corpses of apes died, the remaining corpses of apes did not dare to attack us again, but instead climbed high and stuck on the stone wall, crawling upwards.

  My companion, Sun the old ghost, and I both let out a sigh of relief and immediately fell onto our buttocks on top of the pile of corpses. At this moment, I no longer felt that the pile of corpses was disgusting; instead, sitting there gave me a sense of exhilaration, as if I had narrowly escaped death. But before my companion and I could even celebrate, we suddenly heard a faint rustling sound, and when I looked closely, I was shocked.

  That dark and oppressive corpse turtle was no longer staying in place, but instead, it was crawling towards me and Old Ghost Sun.

  "Damn it, why do I always run into these ferocious monsters since I met you!" Sun Lao Gui cursed loudly. Hearing this, I gritted my teeth and cursed back: "You're blaming me? Who the hell am I supposed to reason with? I'm just a 21-year-old ordinary college student who came back to my hometown for summer vacation, but I've encountered so many strange things, almost died several times, and been trapped by terrifying creatures multiple times. What the hell did I do to provoke anyone?"

  "You dare to talk back, I'll beat your mouth when we get back!" Sun Lao Gui scolded loudly, and then he shook the small flag, those two fierce ghosts immediately flew down, grabbed us, and were about to fly up.

  But at this moment, I suddenly felt a gust of cold wind on the top of my head, and then a very strange low laughter suddenly came out.

  "Hehehe!……"

  That laughter was very low and uncertain, giving people a feeling of coming from all directions. As the laughter spread, the fierce ghost that was originally pulling us up to fly suddenly became panicked, its whole body trembling as if it had received a severe shock, and it didn't listen to Sun Lao Gui's command. It let out a loud "yah" cry, then all of them drilled back into the small flag.

  "Damn it!" In the chaos, Old Sun only had time to curse loudly before we both fell back onto the pile of corpses once again.

  As we fell onto the pile of corpses, that group of corpse turtles let out a strange "squeaking" cry. I thought they were rushing towards us, but when I looked up, I saw that those corpse turtles had become disordered and were crawling around chaotically like a swarm of headless flies, seemingly having also suffered a great shock.

  At this moment, the pile of corpses seemed to shudder, and then, in the center of the pile, a package slowly bulged out, as if something was crawling out from within.

  I was so frightened that my soul was about to escape. Could it be that the terrifying thing Sun Lao Gui mentioned is going to come out?

  The corpse turtles seemed to be extremely wary of the thing that was about to crawl out, and suddenly stopped paying attention to me and Old Sun. Instead, they all burrowed deep into the pile of corpses, and in the blink of an eye, the large group of corpse turtles disappeared without a trace.

  Gudong gudong!......

  Accompanied by a sound like a heartbeat, the package grew larger and the several rotting corpses on top of it stood up. When the package reached its limit, the corpses buried on top of it suddenly collapsed, and then, the thing that crawled out from under the pile of bones also revealed its true appearance.

  But when I saw that thing clearly, I was stunned for a moment, my eyes wide open, and my face full of astonishment. And Sun Lao Gui couldn't help but exclaim loudly: "This, this is actually Rou Lingzhi!"
