Chapter 1187: Flying Silver Zombie
Liu Ming didn’t say anything anymore and flew into the distance.
Bai Yan’er looked in the direction of the escape light with a complicated expression. After a long while, she let out a long sigh.
…
Liu Ming continued to fly in the direction of the Savage Ghost Sect. After flying non-stop for another 2 days and 2 nights, a mountain range shrouded in gray clouds was already in sight. As far as he could see, there were more than a dozen majestic peaks of different heights. All of them towering into the clouds like a fairyland on earth.
Compared with the Thousands Spirit Mountain Range in the Middle Sky Continent, this scene was obviously insignificant; but in this Yunchuan Continent, it was still a rare scene.
Liu Ming retracted the escape light, stood in the air and squinted his eyes slightly to look at the highest mountain in the distance.
The buildings built along the mountain were like scales, winding on both sides of a very thick mountain road. The mountain road coiled like a giant python, leading directly to the mountain peak.
A look of nostalgia flashed across his eyes.
“I didn’t expect that this place hasn’t changed much after being away for so many years.” Liu Ming muttered to himself after seeing the familiar scenery around him.
With a sigh, he moved forward and started descending.
At this moment, there was a fluctuation behind him. A ghost hand covered with silver scales suddenly emerged and grabbed Liu Ming’s back like lightning.
But Liu Ming’s figure flashed and disappeared; The ghost’s hand missed.
As a deep roar sounded, there was an evil wind in the air. A silver zombie about 3 meters tall appeared in mid-air.
This zombie had a human face except for that 2 long canine teeth. It looked exactly like a normal cultivator.
Its whole body was covered with silver scales, but its back had a pair of bony silver wings, and its 10 nails were extremely sharp. It looked hideous and terrifying.
The aura emitted had reached the Crystallization Period.
“Eh, the flying silver zombie…” Liu Ming’s surprised voice came from behind the silver zombie.
The silver zombie let out a groan and flapped its wings, wanting to turn around.
At this moment, a white palm grasped its neck and lifted up its body.
“Ho Ho!“
The silver zombie let out a roar. Although it was a zombie, after its cultivation broke through the Crystallization Period, it had developed intelligence. How could it be willing to be captured?
The silver wings flapped, stirring a wave of strong wind, and its body released a bright silver light. It struggled violently.
Liu Ming’s eyes had a hint of surprise, then there was a burst of crackling sounds from his arm.
The silver zombie immediately looked painful, and a terrifying force came from the palm behind. Its neck was about to be snapped.
The silver light suddenly became extremely dim, and its struggling body also curled up. It let out a painful wail from its mouth, but it couldn’t resist at all
“This mister, please be merciful.” A gray cloud shot out from a certain mountain in the distance. The voice of an old man came from it.
Liu Ming focused his eyes, and he saw the figure in the cloud clearly. He raised his brows slightly.
The man in the cloud was an old man in a gray robe with triangular white hair on his head. He was the only Crystallization Period cultivator in the Ghost Sect back then, the old man surnamed Yan.
More than a hundred years had passed, but his cultivation was still at the early stage of the Crystallization Period. His appearance was getting older and older.
At this moment, the old man surnamed Yan was shocked to see that the person restrained the silver zombie with 1 hand.
Since this flying silver zombie successfully advanced a hundred years ago, its cultivation had increased rapidly. It had faintly approached the realm of the intermediate stage of the Crystallization Period. Not only it had endless strength, but it was almost invincible to all kinds of spiritual weapons. It had become the biggest combat power in his hand.
Now, when the Sea Creature Clan was frequently invading Yunchuan, in order to frighten the Sea Creature Clan, he released it to patrol the mountains and protect the sect. For strangers who stepped into the range of the Savage Ghost Sect, it would launch an attack on its own. Unexpectedly, it was easily subdued by the opponent.
“May I know who mister is and why are you visiting the Savage Ghost Sect abruptly? If I have offended you, please forgive me.” The old man surnamed Yan had scanned Liu Ming with Divine Thought, but he couldn’t detect Liu Ming’s cultivation at all. He hurriedly called in shock.
After all, if the other party destroyed the silver zombie that he had sacrificially refined with efforts, he would suffer a great loss.
For some reason, he faintly felt that the aura emanating from this young man in a green robe in the distance was somewhat familiar as if he had met him somewhere before.
He quickly recalled all those Crystallization Period powerhouses he had met before, but none of them matched the man in front of him. Being able to subdue the flying silver corpse with one hand was at least the cultivation of the Crystallization Period later stage.
Not to mention the 5 sects of the Great Xuan Kingdom, but in the other sects in Yunchuan, if there is such a character, I will definitely know. Could it be that the other party is a cultivator living in seclusion all year round?
Liu Ming smiled and said slowly, “Master’s Junior Yan, long time no see. I didn’t expect that your green-haired iron corpse has successfully advanced into the flying silver corpse.”
After saying that, he lightly threw the silver zombie back.
The silver zombie screamed in horror and flew toward the old man in a gray robe after being released.
The old man surnamed Yan was only able to fly 900 meters from Liu Ming at this moment. Hearing that the other party called him Master’s Junior, he quickly took a careful look at the other party. He suddenly remembered a Savage Ghost Sect disciple more than a hundred years ago in his mind, and he was startled, but he still said with some uncertainty,
“You, you are Liu Ming, Nephew Disciple Liu…”
“Hehe, after so many years, I didn’t expect Master’s Junior Yan to still remember me.” Liu Ming cupped his fist.
“You’re really Nephew Disciple Liu, but your cultivation level…” The old man surnamed Yan took a while to recover. He flew a little closer, asking hesitantly.
“I encountered an accident when I went to Bieyuan Island to perform a mission more than a hundred years ago. After that, I was transported to a place outside of the Sea Region. I have been cultivating since then. Until recently, I was not able to return to the Sea Region.” Liu Ming said with a smile.
“Great, I can’t imagine that you have cultivated to such a level in more than a hundred years. It is really a blessing for our sect. Quickly come in and tell me about your adventure.” The old man surnamed Yan was naturally overjoyed when he heard the words. He kept away the silver zombie.
“Master’s Junior, you first.” Liu Ming said calmly.
“Since you have also reached the Crystallization Period, you don’t need to call me Master’s Junior. Just call me mister.” The old man surnamed Yan said seriously.
Liu Ming’s gaze flashed, and he nodded. He didn’t reveal that he had actually advanced to the Real Pellet State and flew behind the old man surnamed Yan.
There were more than a dozen peaks of different sizes in the Savage Ghost Sect mountain range, various buildings and halls were surrounded by a thick sea of clouds. Some cultivators wearing sect costumes were riding clouds and coming back and forth between mountain peaks.
Looking at the several huge buildings on the largest mountain among them, although they were more solemn than before, Liu Ming still recognized some familiar places such as the Deputy Hall and the Scriptures Pavilion. He couldn’t help but feel a warm feeling in his heart.
Then they landed in front of a hall on the top of the main peak and walked in.
“Master’s Junior Yan, what happened just now…” An old man in sackcloth came out of the hall. He was startled when he saw them.
The old man in sackcloth was Huang Shi, the sect master of the Savage Ghost Sect. As his Divine Thought scanned Liu Ming, he was shocked. Before he could take a closer look, he hurriedly bowed to Liu Ming.
“Huang Shi, greetings to senior.”
“Haha, Nephew Disciple Huang, take a good look. This is none other than Liu Ming from back then.” Before Liu Ming could speak, the old man surnamed Yan said with a laugh.
“Junio… Junior Fellow Apprentice Liu…” Sect Master Huang Shi’s head suddenly raised his head and looked at Liu Ming in a daze. His eyes gradually brightened.
“Senior fellow apprentice, long time no see.” Liu Ming said with a smile.
“It’s really Junior Fellow Apprentice Liu. Where have you been all these years? And your current cultivation level…” Sect Master Huang Shi was delighted, then he showed a look of horror.
“Okay, I’m also very curious about this matter. Let’s go in first.” The old man surnamed Yan said with a wave of his hand.
“Yes, yes… please.” Sect Master Huang Shi hastily made way and invited them into the hall to sit down.
“Back then, you and Miss Ye Tianmei went to the Sea Region, then there was no news from you after that. Miss Ye also sent a message to us to explain the process of your disappearance. Just now you said that you have practiced in a place outside the Sea Region for all these years? What’s going on?” As soon as they sat down, Master’s Junior Yan asked impatiently.
“Miss Ye is right. I was captured by Siren King on Bieyuan Island, then I was taken to an underground mine…” Liu Ming roughly told them what happened back then. He didn’t tell them about his secrets.
The old man surnamed Yan and Sect Master Huang Shi were astounded after listening. When they heard that Liu Ming had joined the Taiqing Sect and he had advanced to the Real Pellet Stage later stage, they froze immediately.
“Really… Real Pellet State later stage…” The old man surnamed Yan opened his mouth slightly and looked at Liu Ming in disbelief.
Sect Master Huang Shi seemed to be petrified. He was speechless for a long time.
“Middle Sky Continent is the real holy place for cultivation. Real Pellet State cultivator is only just a mediocre existence in Taiqing Sect. There are Celestial State and even Mystic Comprehending State powerhouses. Don’t be so surprised.” Liu Ming shook his head.
“Taiqing Sect, this is really a great opportunity!”
The 2 of them came back to their senses after hearing that. The old man surnamed Yan’s shock subsided slightly, but he still muttered in disbelief.
“Let’s not talk about that. Can I know what happened all these years after I left? I heard that Siren King has returned to the Sea Region, and he has been oppressing the human cultivator forces in the Yunchuan Continent all these years?” Liu Ming did not want to talk more about his adventure, and he changed the topic.
