Is this what a zombie is?

87. The world has changed!

On the other side, deep within the earth's veins, lies the sealed location of the Blood Coral Tai Sui.

Almost as soon as the four landed, two dark golden figures pounced on them. These were the only two golden-armored corpses that Li Lianying had cultivated for over two hundred years.

They roared, like two heavy tanks, charging in with tremendous force.

If it weren't for the others being there, facing the sudden attack from both sides by the two golden-armored corpses, their chances of survival would have been slim.

But their opponent is the Four Spirits Clan, the leading figure of the younger generation.

"Amitabha!"

Beitang Ming clasped his hands together, chanted a Buddhist mantra, and his whole body radiated golden light, as if the Buddha had descended.

The dark golden-armored corpse, upon contact with this layer of golden light, was repelled as quickly as it lunged forward, even being sent flying back at an even faster speed.

Simondeng lazily raised his hand, his fingers forming a sword shape, and casually slashed forward.

The invisible sword energy pierced through the foreheads and hearts of the two golden-armored corpses in an instant, causing their corpse energy to gush out and their bodies to twitch uncontrollably.

Throughout the entire ordeal, Simon never even drew the sword from his back.

Because these two golden-armored corpses are not worthy of his sword.

Nangong Moya then condensed two clusters of orange-red flames and accurately threw them at the two golden-armored corpses.

Although Nangong Moya failed to master the Nanming Li Fire, her flames were no ordinary thing. The two golden-armored corpses, which were exuding corpse energy, were quickly burned to ashes.

The two golden-armored corpses were destroyed in less than a minute from their appearance to their annihilation; the whole process was clean, efficient, and utterly devastating.

It's not that the golden-armored corpse is weak, but rather that these four are too strong.

Dongfang Liang did not participate in the battle; he went straight to the sealing array to observe its condition.

Gradually, his brows furrowed.

Not right.

Something's really wrong.

Although the seal in front of us seems to be on the verge of collapse, with many small cracks, the core and important nodes of the array have not been seriously damaged.

Most importantly, the Blood Coral Tai Sui, which was suppressed inside, was as calm as a stagnant pool.

Even when the members of the Four Spirits Clan arrived, it showed no reaction whatsoever, which was completely out of character for it.

This peerless monster, imprisoned for three hundred years, is notoriously tyrannical, and these members of the Four Spirits Clan are its enemies.

He sensed his enemy approaching, so how could he be so quiet?

unless……

A thought flashed through Dongfang Liang's mind, and he smiled, immediately turning around and leaving quickly.

"Let's go, we'll head to Dog Head Ridge immediately."

"Are we just going to ignore this seal?"

"There's no need for that. We've fallen for their trap. This is a diversionary tactic."

As they walked, Dongfang Liang explained in short sentences at top speed.

"Li Lianying's goal from the very beginning was to lure the four of us here."

"As for the Blood Coral Tai Sui, it had long since abandoned this sealed body. It must have transferred its intelligence and most of its power out in some way."

"Li Lianying deliberately created the disturbance to break the seal at this point in time, just to use this empty shell to hold back the strongest fighting force of our Four Spirits Clan."

"Therefore, we must immediately return to provide assistance."

Dongfang Liang took out a specially made communication device from his pocket and tried to contact Nangong Erya, who was heading to Dog Head Ridge.

However, a piercing electrical hum emanated from the device.

The strong magnetic field interference deep underground rendered all modern communication equipment completely ineffective.

……

Inside the Dog Head Ridge Underground Palace, the grand coronation ceremony of the Earth God came to an end.

In a hurry, Li Lianying had already skipped many steps and cumbersome procedures.

Upon the ascension of the new emperor, he naturally had to take possession of the legendary token. Li Lianying presented a square box wrapped in bright yellow silk, bowed, and carefully opened it.

A piece of ancient jade, pure white with five intertwined dragons carved on it and missing a corner inlaid with gold, lies quietly inside.

The Imperial Seal of the State!

For many, this thing is even more alluring than a dragon robe; it is truly the most alluring of all succubi.

However, for Ai Yi, it was just a pretty piece of gold-inlaid jade, which held no appeal whatsoever.

Normally, he would take a few more curious glances and hold it in his hands to play with it.

But now, he didn't want to look at it at all; he just wanted to get as far away from it as possible.

"Your Majesty, please take up the Imperial Seal and command the world!!!"

Li Lianying's high-pitched voice echoed in the underground palace.

Do not!

No!

I don't want this! Take it away from me!

Ai Yi screamed wildly in his heart, but now his body was like a puppet on strings, completely at the mercy of others.

Under Li Lianying's control, the zombie bacteria in his body manipulated him to slowly raise his hands and take the jade seal.

When Ai Yi held the imperial seal in his hands, the true dragon energy within him, which had been amplified and strengthened by the destinies of the eight infants, resonated with the imperial seal.

The jade seal, which was originally cool to the touch, was now scalding hot and was trembling incessantly.

As the jade seal trembled, an indescribable suction force emanated from it, and Ai Yi's true dragon energy seemed to find an outlet, rushing wildly into the jade seal.

hum-

The jade seal trembled even more violently, and then a dazzling golden light burst forth from it. The brilliance of the light was so great that even the eerie green glow emanating from the surrounding zombies was suppressed by the golden light.

Under the golden light, the zombie-like civil and military officials let out painful howls and crouched down to defend themselves, clutching their heads.

"hold head high--!!!"

A high-pitched and stirring roar, as if from the ancient wilderness, resounded throughout the entire underground space.

Then, a phantom of a five-clawed golden dragon formed from the condensation of fortune burst forth from the jade seal, spiraling upwards, passing through thick layers of earth and rocks, and soaring straight into the heavens.

Outside, the typhoon made a powerful landfall, reigning over this coastal city like a tyrant.

Above the city ravaged by the typhoon, the sky was completely blocked by thick, leaden clouds, obscuring all sunlight.

The city was shrouded in a dim twilight, as if it had ushered in an eternal night ahead of schedule.

Silvery-white lightning surged wildly deep within the clouds, like countless furious electric snakes roaring silently. Amidst the flickering light and shadow, not a single rumble of thunder could be heard.

The gale-force winds, carrying large raindrops, pelted every corner of the city.

Amidst this apocalyptic scene, a majestic and sacred golden dragon suddenly tore through the clouds without warning, appearing and disappearing amidst the raging lightning, its massive body sometimes vanishing and sometimes reappearing.

This scene was like a myth descending upon us.

A five-clawed golden dragon roams through thick clouds, a totem that should be auspicious.

But with the devastating weather at this moment, the sense of sacredness was greatly diminished, instead casting a heavy shadow over the hearts of all living beings who witnessed this scene.

That day, everything changed!
