At this moment, a horizontal knife glowing with green light burst through the air and struck the old corpse puppet on the neck.
The old corpse puppet was sent flying more than ten feet by this sword, his head hit a tree with a bang, and his upper body was directly embedded in the trunk of the tree.
The person who cut off this sword was Xiao Zhi.
Last time, he was not strong enough and not fast enough. He had no time to save Yang Xu from the bandit warrior. He could only watch Yang Xu being beaten to death in front of him.
This time, he arrived at the critical moment and avoided the tragedy like last time.
Boom! The trees exploded, sawdust flew into the air, the old corpse puppet's head was tilted, his head was bloody, his face was covered with blood, it roared, and rushed towards Xiao Zhi!
The sword that Xiao Zhi just unleashed with all his strength was enough to cut off the fine iron, but it could not completely cut off the old corpse puppet's neck.
There is still a small half of flesh and blood left in its neck, and the exposed white bones are not completely broken.
Its bones exude the brilliance of porcelain, and are so hard, much harder than fine iron!
It tilted its head, screamed and rushed towards Xiao Zhi. Xiao Zhi also held a horizontal knife and rushed towards it.
The old corpse puppet screamed and waved the iron ruler in his hand, and Xiao Zhi also slashed out the horizontal knife in his hand.
There was a flash of green light, and before the iron ruler could be drawn out, the green horizontal knife in Xiao Zhi's hand struck the old corpse puppet's neck with only a small amount of flesh and blood left.
Another blow with full force.
This knife finally cut off the old corpse puppet's neck and chopped off its head!
The head was thrown away, and the headless corpse of the old corpse puppet fell forward to the ground.
Xiao Zhi took a few steps back and stopped the operation of his true energy and 'blood boiling' secret technique.
Frequent use of the 'Boiling Blood' Secret Technique has made the sequelae of the 'Boiling Blood' Secret Technique more serious.
As soon as he stopped using the secret technique of 'boiling blood', Xiao Zhi felt as if there were countless ants biting the flesh and blood on his body, and the pain made his whole body tremble.
After a few seconds, Xiao Zhi finally recovered.
At this time, Yang Xu had already climbed up from the ground.
He did not look at the corpse of the old corpse puppet, but walked step by step in front of Xiao Zhi, and then used his intact arm to support Xiao Zhi.
"Yang Xu, I'm fine. It's just the sequelae of the 'blood boiling' secret technique. Just get over it and you'll be fine." Xiao Zhi endured the pain in his body and forced a smile on his face.
Severe pain came in waves like a tide, making Xiao Zhi's consciousness become a little blurry.
Yang Xu said in a hoarse voice: "Brother Zhi, tell me, if I were resurrected, would my current strength be retained?"
Xiao Zhi was stunned for a moment when he was asked. How should he answer this question?
He doesn't know either.
However, Xiao Zhi had an intuition that Yang Xu's current way of existence was somewhat special, and what he possessed was the power of death.
This power can only be possessed by the dead. The living...should not be able to possess this power, right?
Seeing that Xiao Zhi didn't speak, Yang Xu continued in a hoarse voice: "If I live, the power I have now will disappear, right? I will become as weak as before, even a bandit in the acquired realm,
You can kill me easily..."
"Yang Xu, you..." The more Xiao Zhi listened, the more he felt that something was wrong, and he felt a little uneasy in his heart.
But as soon as he said the words, he was thrown to the ground by Yang Xu.
The next moment, an animal skin bag was forcibly pulled out from his body.
Under the side effects of the 'blood boiling' secret technique, Xiao Zhi's reaction speed was obviously a beat slower than under normal circumstances.
When he reacted, Yang Xu had already crushed the animal skin bag, stuffed the black bead in the animal skin bag into his mouth, and swallowed it!
"Yang Xu, you..." Xiao Zhi got up with some difficulty.
Yang Xu's movements were too fast and too decisive, catching him off guard.
"Ah..." Yang Xu's eyes glowed brightly, his body trembled violently, and he let out a low roar of pain, and black gas was emitting from his whole body.
This black air is filled with the smell of decay.
This is death energy, a relatively pure form of death energy.
"Spit it out, spit it out quickly." Xiao Zhi was anxious but helpless.
At this time, screams came from the distance, which belonged to Li Pingfeng.
"Damn it!" Xiao Zhi gritted his teeth. He used his true energy to suppress the sequelae of the 'blood boiling' secret technique. He picked up the trembling Yang Xu and ran towards where Li Pingfeng and the others were.
As he was running away, Xiao Zhi took a look inside.
Infuriating energy reserve: 1%
Xiao Zhi's face became even more ugly.
Damn it! Damn it!
Now he is really exhausted!
With 1% of his true energy reserves, he has never been so embarrassed after entering the Xiantian realm.
With 1% of his true energy reserves, he couldn't even use the full strength sword under normal conditions, not to mention using the combat skill "Cang Long Breaking the Seal".
Less than 10 meters away from the bonfire, Duan Yi was lying on the ground, covered in blood, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
Li Pingfeng's abdomen was bitten with blood by a beast corpse puppet, and he was struggling to resist the bite of the beast corpse puppet.
Xie Ke's condition was relatively the best, but this was only relatively speaking. He was also facing a corpse with an innate middle section, and he had no time to take care of Li Pingfeng who was not far away.
Even the two tourists from the county had to join the battle with fine iron weapons.
Both of them used their true strength as warriors to fight against several zombies in the Houtian realm.
Xiao Zhi looked around by the light of the bonfire and saw that everyone on their side was almost out of gas.
There are not many corpse puppets left.
The ground was littered with corpses, and the rotting smell filled an area of several hundred meters.
This battle can really be described as tragic.
"Xiao Zhi, save me!" Seeing Xiao Zhi coming over, Li Pingfeng shouted with a pale face while resisting the bite of the beast corpse in front of him.
This is a beast-like corpse puppet with innate middle-level strength.
In his peak condition, Li Pingfeng wouldn't be in such a miserable state.
Now, he is similar to Xiao Zhi, he is close to running out of gas, he is injured, and his combat power has dropped sharply.
Xiao Zhi put down Yang Xu, who was still shaking, by the bonfire, gritted his teeth, held a horizontal knife, and rushed towards Li Pingfeng.
At this time, the percentage number representing the true energy reserves jumped, from 1% to 2%.
This was the Qi Gathering Pill he had taken earlier, slowly restoring his Qi.
2% of the true energy is almost enough to kill the beast corpse in front of you.
Xiao Zhi, who rushed to Li Pingfeng, gritted his teeth and used the secret technique of 'boiling blood' again, then exploded his true energy with all his strength and slashed out with a single sword!
With a sneer, the head was cut off, and the headless corpse of this animal corpse fell to the ground helplessly.
This strike of the sword directly consumed all the energy in Xiao Zhi's body.
After making this slash, Xiao Zhi felt dizzy and the scenery in front of him was spinning.
Without the suppression of true energy, the sequelae of the 'blood boiling' secret technique broke out in full force.
Xiao Zhi couldn't even utter a scream, so he fell to the ground with a plop.
