Chapter 312 Fighting the Third-Order Corpse Refinement
After cleaning up these second-level corpses, ten peak foundation-building monks walked to the front.
The Ji brothers were also among them, Ji Cheng was holding a bell, and Ji Yue was holding a stack of talismans.
There are three peak foundation-building monks holding second-level high-grade peach wood swords in their hands.
Wang Daoyuan has never killed a corpse before, but I heard that corpses are afraid of peach wood and fire-attribute magic weapons.
There is no fire-attributed spiritual wood suitable for refining weapons in the spirit bead space, but there are still many golden-threaded peaches.
He took out a second-level high-quality long sword made of golden silk and peach from the spirit bead space, and held it in his hand.
Zhou Xuan sent a message: "Fellow Daoist Wu, give me a mahogany sword too. I don't have anyone who can take advantage of it to defend myself."
Wang Daoyuan also sent a message and replied: "A direct disciple of the top force in the Beiyuan Immortal Realm, there is no one who can take advantage of me to defend myself. Are you kidding me?"
Zhou Xuan was a little embarrassed: "The things my elders gave me are too conspicuous to take out directly.
The magic weapon I refined myself is not very good."
Wang Daoyuan was too lazy to continue talking to him, so he took out a second-order high-grade peach wood sword from the spirit bead space and handed it to Zhou Xuan.
Seeing him take out two peach wood swords, Ji Yue asked: "Do you, fellow Daoist Wu, still have peach wood swords? This thing has a very good restraint effect on the corpse. If there are more, take them out. We will use spiritual stones and other things."
Exchange with fellow Taoist."
Wang Daoyuan replied: "These two peach wood swords are the only two that I accidentally found a second-level high-grade spiritual peach tree and refined it from the trunk of the spiritual peach tree.
Moreover, I didn't intend to use it against the Refined Corpse beforehand. There are no weapon patterns on it to deal with the Refined Corpse.
Relying on peach wood alone, the restraint effect on the corpse refining is not strong, so I only use it to strengthen my courage."
Seeing that he was unwilling to take out the peach wood sword again, Ji Yue stopped pestering him. After all, they were neither relatives nor friends.
To deal with the third-level corpse refining, a few more peach wood swords will not have much effect.
After the peak-level foundation-building monks were ready, they took the lead to descend into the cave, followed closely by Wang Daoyuan and others.
The cave is only a dozen feet deep. After reaching the bottom of the cave, there is a huge stone chamber with a diameter of more than twenty feet.
There is a dark door on the wall on one side of the stone chamber.
Although this portal is not very similar to the two secret realms Wang Daoyuan has seen, it feels similar.
It's a bit like the feeling of taking something out of the spirit bead space, maybe it's called space fluctuation.
There are also wisps of Yin Qi coming from this door.
A peak foundation-building monk holding a peach wood sword walked to the door, took out a third-level low-grade spiritual talisman, hung it on the sword, and stretched the peach wood sword into the door.
Then, a wave of spiritual energy flashed on the peach wood sword.
Wang Daoyuan admired in his heart, these casual cultivators are really experienced.
The monk's consciousness cannot pass through the portal of the secret realm. There is something lurking behind the portal that cannot be discovered from the outside.
Simply use the magic weapon to trigger the magic talisman, and first launch a wave of indiscriminate attacks on the door.
After detonating the talisman, the monk attached a few earth armor talismans to himself, then walked through the portal and entered the secret realm.
The other peak foundation-building monks also quickly passed through the portal.
All this was completed in just five breaths of time.
Next, it was the turn of the ninth-level monks to enter.
Wang Daoyuan affixed more than a dozen second-level high-grade earth armor talismans to himself before following the others inside.
Zhou Xuan was even more cowardly than him, so he affixed a few defensive talismans to himself and followed behind.
After entering the portal, there is a huge flat land in front of you.
It is very dark in the secret realm, a bit like the sun has set in the evening, but the sky has not completely darkened yet.
With the eyesight of a foundation-building monk, he can only see two hundred feet away, and the detection distance of his spiritual consciousness is only about one hundred feet.
The nine monks who were on the ninth level of foundation building began to place the formation plates as soon as they came in.
Among the nine people, there was a formation master in command, so there was no need for Wang Daoyuan to interfere.
Ten peak foundation-building monks were already fighting with four low-level third-level corpse-refining corpses.
Of these four third-level refined corpses, three were refined from the corpses of human monks, and one was refined from the corpse of a tiger monster.
The bell in Ji Cheng's hand has a very obvious restraint effect on the zombies. As soon as the bell is rung, the four zombies will stand still.
It takes four or five breaths for the corpse to react.
The other monks took the opportunity to use spiritual talismans and magic weapons to attack the four refining corpses.
Generally, a monk's magical weapon will only produce a few sparks when it hits a third-level corpse refining body.
Only fire-attribute attacks and the peach wood sword can cause some skin trauma to the refining corpse.
Ji Cheng was also under great pressure. With his foundation-building cultivation, activating the third-level magic weapon consumed a huge amount of spiritual consciousness, but he had to activate the bell many times.
Otherwise, once the zombies wake up, these people won't be able to resist at all.
With their strength alone, they simply cannot take down these corpses.
Wang Daoyuan and Zhou Xuan didn't step forward, that is, they stood behind and threw a few spells at the corpse.
After a hundred breaths of time passed, the formation disks were placed, and the ninth-level formation master activated the core of the formation to activate the formation.
Ji Cheng tried his best to activate the bell again, suppressing all four zombies and covering everyone's retreat.
The power of his spiritual consciousness was almost exhausted. Seeing that the formation was completed, the other monks at the peak of the Foundation Establishment quickly withdrew into the formation without caring about anything else.
Ji Yue will naturally not give up on his brother and drag him into the battle.
After Ji Cheng entered the formation, he meditated near the core of the formation to restore his spiritual power.
Two of the other nine peak-level foundation-building monks were seriously injured and were unable to protect the array at all.
Wang Daoyuan and a ninth-level foundation-building monk replaced the two of them, and he and seven other foundation-building monks guarded a formation plate respectively.
The remaining seven monks from the ninth level of foundation building, plus Zhou Xuan, each went behind an outer array to support the monks guarding the array at any time.
Zhou Xuan continued to follow Wang Daoyuan shamelessly. There was a peak foundation-building monk who had no one to support him. This person was Ji Yue.
Because he is strong, he also holds several third-level talismans in his hand.
Even if no one supports him, he can still hold on.
Ji Cheng finally activated the bell and restrained the corpse for three breaths.
At this time, the four zombies regained their ability to move and rushed towards the formation.
After all, it was a third-level corpse refining, and its speed was far faster than that of a foundation-building monk. Wang Daoyuan unfolded his spiritual consciousness and watched these corpse refinings to prevent them from being attacked by surprise.
The souls of humans and monsters are divided into two parts: soul and essence.
The soul is the source of consciousness and spiritual intelligence, hidden in the sea of consciousness, and the power of divine consciousness also comes from the soul.
The essence is distributed throughout the body and controls various parts of the body under the command of the soul.
Corpse refining means that after death of a person or monster, the soul leaves the body, but the essence remains in the body and merges with the body. If the body does not rot, the essence will not be dispersed.
Therefore, things like spiritual attacks are completely useless against corpse refining.
To defeat the zombie, one can only rely on powerful means to directly destroy the body of the zombie.
The zombie first attacked Ji Yue who was alone, and then a zombie attacked the array guarded by Ji Yue.
Ji Yue's fighting skills are not weak. He relied on his escape skills to avoid the zombie attack. Then he threw a third-level fire attribute talisman and the zombie was instantly surrounded by a sea of fire.
The monk who controlled the formation was not idle either. He quickly activated the formation and condensed a phantom of a Suzaku with a wingspan of about fifty feet.
As soon as the Suzaku phantom took shape, it spit out a fireball about one foot in diameter at the zombie attacking Ji Yue.
The zombies were very vigilant and immediately ran away from the formation, finally avoiding the fireball.
A large area of his body was burned by the fire-attribute talisman, exuding the aroma of barbecue and a smell of corpse.
Having suffered a loss from Ji Yue, the four zombie refiners stopped looking for bad luck with Ji Yue and turned to attack Wang Daoyuan and Zhou Xuan, who had the lowest cultivation level.
