Qingzhenzi was not willing to show weakness in front of this young man, Xiaoye, so he turned around and said to his six disciples: "You just stay downstairs while Master Xiaoye and Taoist fellow Taoist Xiaoye go up to have a look. If anything happens and you want to take revenge, go back to the mountain immediately.
Please teach the Master to go down the mountain and slay the demons."
The faces of the six little Taoist priests were anxious, and they were almost in tears, "Master!"
Qingzhenzi flicked his sleeves and followed Xiaoye up to the second floor with a mahogany sword. "Stop talking, remember my words. You are too weak. You can't help us."
The second floor was quiet at the moment, but two green candles were still burning on the far walls on both sides, shaking like will-o'-the-wisps, making people feel panicked.
On the wide floor, the originally densely packed coffins had long since disappeared, leaving only a huge luxurious coffin made of nanmu and painted with gold parked in the middle.
Xiaoye looked at Qingzhenzi and found that both of them looked a little lucky. Fortunately, the evil demon did not have the ability to resurrect the dead zombies, otherwise it would have been a big trouble.
Xiaoye took a step forward, his eyes fixed on the giant golden nanmu coffin in the middle. There was no doubt that their final opponent must be inside.
Xiao Ye sneered, "Humph, my friend in the coffin, you have been hiding your head and tail for so long, and you will use hidden arrows from behind. Now that you have become the bare commander, why don't you still refuse to show up?"
Qing Zhenzi was much more straightforward and shouted: "Evil devil, come out and die, and give my disciple his life."
As soon as he finished speaking, the lid of the giant golden nanmu coffin suddenly stood up straight and slowly. The lid was facing Xiaoye and the two of them. It was embroidered with gold patterns of Luan and Phoenix, which looked so luxurious.
Xiaoye and Qingzhenzi couldn't help but become a little nervous and put on a lot of mental alertness.
Suddenly, a strange sound came, and the huge coffin lid began to slowly move to one side, revealing the mysterious inner coffin.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, the huge coffin lid fell aside, completely revealing the inner coffin.
By the green firelight, Xiaoye and Qingzhenzi took a closer look, and were surprised again, feeling unspeakably shocked.
In the huge inner coffin, there was a snow-white soft brocade quilt, and a beautiful woman with white hair like snow and a long skirt like frost was lying quietly on it.
She has a bright and beautiful face, a lifelike expression, and elegant manners, as if she is a peerless beauty in deep sleep.
And on the coffin wall above the head of this beauty, there is also a huge luminous pearl, which emits a soft white light, making the beauty in the coffin even more noble.
Xiaoye was a little dumbfounded. He turned around and looked at Qingzhenzi, and saw Qingzhenzi looking at him with the same stupid look, obviously equally confused.
After being stunned for a moment, Xiaoye came back to his senses and said loudly: "Hey, who are you, this woman? Are you the master of the Phoenix Temple?"
Suddenly, this beautiful woman suddenly opened her eyes, and those eyes that should have been warm and watery were dazzling blood red, making the bright eyes look a bit sad and scary.
The woman in beautiful clothes suddenly said calmly: "I am the real owner of Phoenix Temple, and my worldly name is Wu Feng!"
"Wu Feng?"
Xiaoye and Qingzhenzi were shocked at the same time.
Wu Feng said quietly: "In the blink of an eye, one hundred and fifty years have passed since the separation between Yin and Yang!"
At this time, Qingzhenzi said angrily: "Evil demon, since you are dead, why don't you go to the underworld and be reincarnated yourself, instead of staying in the upper world to harm others?"
Wu Feng looked a little sad, "We are all poor people who died unexpectedly. We were bullied during our lives, and then abandoned here after our deaths. We were too resentful to be reincarnated. Over time, we became a group of lonely ghosts, accompanying each other in this world.
It’s been here for hundreds of years.”
Xiaoye was a little skeptical, "Well, it's possible for other people, but you don't look like you have suffered. How could it be the same?"
"Alas, who knows the sufferings in the past life!" Wu Feng sighed faintly: "Master, I am originally the daughter of a woodcutter in the mountains. Because of my youth and beauty, I was spotted by a rich man. Although I already have a sweetheart.
, but because my family was poor and my father was greedy for money, I sold me to him.
After that, although he loved me in every possible way, I was depressed all day long and missed my lover.
Later, his first wife became jealous of me and secretly poisoned me to death, and bribed the doctor to tell me that I died violently. He didn't realize it, and was so heartbroken that he wanted to bury me in the family grave.
But the principal wife blocked me due to family rules, so he had no choice but to put me in a coffin in the Phoenix Temple. Now, do you understand?"
It turned out that he was really a poor man! Xiaoye sighed in his heart.
Qingzhenzi, however, seemed to be reluctant and said: "Humph, evil devils, don't stop talking sophistry. Since you claim to be pitiful people, why do you want to kill strangers?"
"Taoist Priest, we kill people just to survive." Wu Feng's voice was very helpless, "Otherwise, once the news of our presence here spreads, it will definitely cause disaster.
In fact, for so many years, we have only been active in the forest and have never stepped out of the forest. As long as people outside the forest do not mess with us, we have never killed anyone randomly. You should know this."
Xiaoye and Qingzhenzi immediately looked at each other. It turns out that this is what happened. No wonder there are such a huge group of corpses here, but there has been no news of any major disaster for many years.
Xiaoye's expression gradually softened, "Oh, so, are you the one who has been restraining them?"
"Yes. We never wanted to harm anyone, we just wanted to stay here quietly." Wu Feng suddenly sighed, "But when you came, you killed so many of my companions, and you still want to bring people to peace."
I left Phoenix Temple. In order to survive, I have to leave you behind."
Xiaoye and Qingzhenzi were both a little silent, a little confused in their hearts. Could it be that we did something wrong to eliminate demons and protect the Tao?
After being silent for a long time, Qingzhenzi suddenly said: "You are not bad in nature, but you are a demon after all, and you have killed many people whether voluntarily or not. Therefore, I still cannot spare you today."
Xiaoye also smiled bitterly and said: "As you said, in order to survive, I have no choice but to do it. I also shoulder the mission and must destroy the Phoenix Temple. I'm sorry, after all, humans and ghosts have different paths, and you should not exist in this world."
Wu Feng smiled slightly at this time, and his smile was a little sad: "I knew you wouldn't let me go. Since ancient times, humans and demons are incompatible, and sooner or later there will be such a day. However, I have sworn a long time ago that I will not let you go in the future.
If you don’t listen to other people’s mercy anymore, you will control your own destiny, so I won’t just let it go.”
Qingzhenzi and Xiaoye looked at each other with extremely solemn expressions.
Suddenly, Xiaoye asked: "There is another question, what are you now and why can you command a group of corpses?"
Wu Feng was stunned for a moment and said calmly: "I'm just like them. I'm not a ghost or a demon. Naturally, I'm all stiff."
"Zombie?" Xiaoye and Qingzhenzi looked at each other and shouted together: "Impossible!"
Zombies are all with fangs and ferocious looks. There is no one like Wu Feng with life-like appearance and beauty. Therefore, Xiaoye and Qingzhenzi refused to believe it.
Wu Feng herself looked a little confused. Obviously she didn't know why this happened, "I don't know about this either. I only know that I was the first to be resurrected among the corpses, and I had a complete mind. There was no change in my body.
.Later, I was even able to cast spells. So, the corpses here naturally regarded me as their king."
"King of Corpses? Can you also use magic?"
Xiaoye and Qingzhenzi were confused and couldn't figure out what was going on.
Suddenly, Xiao Ye remembered the wizard he met before and said slowly: "I met a zombie before. He was a famous wizard during his lifetime. He used a spell to seal the coffin lid before his death, so that his soul could not return after death.
Wander around and be resurrected after thousands of years, and you will have the power of a zombie, complete sanity and the magic power you had during your lifetime. Is this the same for you?"
Wu Feng shook his head affirmatively: "I didn't have any magic power when I was alive, and there was no seal on the coffin after my death. I didn't have any magic power when I was first resurrected, and I only gradually learned it after about fifty years."
Xiaoye was surprised for a while and said: "Could it be that you are a mutant that has never been born among zombies?"
He looked at Qingzhenzi in confusion, but saw Qingzhenzi's eyes suddenly turned to the huge luminous pearl above Wu Feng's head.
Suddenly, Qingzhenzi said: "Wu Feng, do you know the origin of that night pearl on your head?"
Wu Feng thought for a while and said: "This luminous pearl was my favorite thing during my lifetime. It is said that it was the beloved treasure of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty thousands of years ago."
Qingzhenzi nodded and said: "Yes, the feng shui here is very easy to raise corpses. In addition, you have a lot of resentment after your death, so you became a zombie.
The luminous pearl has the power to dominate the creation of heaven and earth. If you absorb its essence under its illumination all year round, your body and appearance will remain incorruptible for hundreds of years.
As for the fact that you were able to use magic later, it was probably due to your extremely high talent and rapid improvement in Taoism, which exceeded the limits of ordinary zombies. Unexpectedly, you were in a miserable situation before your death, but after your death, God was very kind to you.
You become a generation of corpse king!"
"Haha!" Wu Feng's smile was very sad, not happy at all: "King of Corpses! What's the use of this title? I would rather die after death. Then I don't have to endure the endless years of loneliness and living with the corpses all day long.
As a companion.”
Both Xiaoye and Qingzhenzi felt a little sad, and suddenly Xiaoye gritted his teeth and said: "Wu Feng, it's not easy for you to practice so far. As long as you are willing to move away from here and live in seclusion in the mountains, and promise not to hurt others in the future, I can consider it."
Let you go."
But Qingzhenzi shook his head and said: "No, if she is let go, how can I behave like a dead disciple, and how can I have the honor to see the master again."
Wu Feng suddenly said in a firm voice: "You have no argument. I have said long ago that my destiny in this life must be controlled by myself. I have lived in Phoenix Temple for many years and have never thought of leaving. It is absolutely impossible for you to ask me to leave. Moreover,
, you have killed so many of my companions, don’t even think about leaving today.”
Xiaoye sighed, looked at Qingzhenzi, and said helplessly: "It seems that people are really in the world, and they can't help themselves. Taoist priest, there is no other way, let's do it."
Qing Zhenzi made a long announcement and said loudly: "I'm offended."
Qingzhenzi held out two talismans and pointed them with his hand. The talismans immediately burned and turned into two fire dragons roaring towards Wu Feng.
Wu Feng floated out of the coffin and flew out. With a flick of her long sleeves, two gusts of dark wind blew out. The two fire dragons were struck by a sap each in an instant and were extinguished on the ground.
Qingzhenzi was shocked and shouted: "Use my blood, inject my spirit, and use the peach wood sword to kill demons."
Qingzhenzi bit the middle finger of his left hand hard, wiped the blood on the mahogany sword, and then raised the mahogany sword into the air.
The peach wood sword flying in mid-air suddenly burst out with dazzling golden light, turned into a flying rainbow, and rushed towards Wu Feng.
Wu Feng didn't answer. He pointed with his hand, and a white light shot out, catching Feihong. He immediately chased Feihong, circling up and down, and fought for a while.
After ten rounds of fighting, the two sides couldn't decide the winner. Wu Feng's face became stern, he let out a light scold, pointed his jade hand, and shot out a white light, which hit Feihong from both sides.
The flying rainbow was hit by two white lights, and it was immediately pushed out. With a hiss, the golden light dimmed, it was defeated, and flew back to Yuzhenzi's hand crookedly.
Two white lights followed She closely, making a faint sound of wind and thunder and hitting Qing Zhenzi.
Just when Qingzhenzi was panicking, Xiaoye suddenly stopped in front of Qingzhenzi, opened his palms, and a thick wall of fire blocked the path of the white light.
"Boom! Boom!"
The two white lights hit the wall of fire one after another, shooting out countless brilliant sparks before colliding back.
"Good skills, come again!"
Wu Feng scolded lightly, then raised his fingers and shot out two more white lights.
Four rays of white light came together and swooped down from mid-air like four sharp swords, piercing the blazing and terrifying wall of fire.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!" After four violent tremors, Xiaoye's chest suddenly felt tight, his face turned pale, and he almost vomited blood.
He was horrified in his heart, what a terrifying strength! It seems that this Wu Feng is indeed a generation of corpse king, and his strength should have reached the gods, otherwise he would not be able to cope with it so hard.
"Don't panic, fellow Daoist Xiaoye, I'm here to help you."
Seeing that Xiaoye's condition was not good, Qingzhenzi quickly regrouped, inserted a talisman into the peach wood sword, and shouted: "The divine sword has the power to eliminate demons."
In an instant, the talisman on the peach wood sword burned, covering the peach wood sword with a faint golden light. Suddenly, the peach wood sword made a clanging sound in the air, and suddenly turned into a hundred, forming a continuous sword curtain.
It attacked Wu Feng like heaven and earth.
Wu Feng was about to pursue Xiaoye when he suddenly saw a dense sword net coming at him. He was also startled and yelled: "Quick!"
Wu Feng's whole body suddenly shot out countless sharp white lights into the air.
"Ding! Ding ding!"
There was a loud noise like exploding beans in the air, and countless white lights and peach wood swords were fighting happily in the air.
Xiaoye took advantage of the situation to fight back and shouted: "Go!"
Suddenly, countless rays of golden light shot out from Xiaoye's whole body, and two huge fireballs flew out, attacking Wu Feng from both sides, one from the left and the other from the right.
Wu Feng sneered. He clapped his jade hands fiercely and yelled: "Broken!" With a flick of his two sleeves, a huge gust of wind suddenly spurted out, sweeping across the entire building like a violent wave.
For a moment, the fireball and the mahogany sword were blown around, unable to get close to Wu Feng.
Xiaoye and Qingzhenzi were even more pitiful. They couldn't stand firm in the strong wind and fell to the ground one after another, falling into gourds rolling on the ground.
