Chapter 609: The Appearance of Tamed Corpses


    As they were about to bury Baji and his people alive, I couldnt stand still anymoreandjumpedout. Idirectlunchedthe Emei Piercer, whichheaded forthe freak in white!


    With my arm strength, I knew my weaponwould stab him. Unexpectedly, the Emei Piercer nged as if it had hit a metal sheet. Then, it fend stabbeddeeply into the ground.


    I was stunned. The two turned aroundand staredat me coldly.They cried,Youre courtingdeath!


    Screwyou!


    After a short trot,Senior Shusuddenly jumped and moved through the air. He kickedthe ck freaks neck.


    His kickwas so fullof strength that Iwas stunned. However, the freak wearing ck clothes didnt evenflinch. He stood and receivedSenior Shus kick directly. Then, hegrabbedSenior Shus leg and hurled him several meters away asifhe was just a sack of rice.


    Ouch


    Senior Shurolled on the ground. He screamedthen retreatedto my side.These guys arent humans. They are tamed corpses!


    What?Tamed corpses?


    Instinctively, I took a few steps back. The masters in Vietnam and Myanmar could tamecorpses to create monsters.A tamed corpse wasnt much different from azombie. Except, the tame corpses had some simple intelligenceandcould mimic human movements. Themost powerful onescould even mingle with living people and no onewould recognizethem.


    Tamed corpses first appeared in the Han Dynasty. At first, the tribes in the South used this technique to stop the imperial court forces from the Central ins. However, with the progress of society, more and more tame masters started to use their taming technique to harm people. Tamed corpses had be evil.


    I had learned about tamed corpses from my grandpa. I had never expected that I would bump into them here. Giving us no time to think, the two tamed corpses started to attack me andSenior Shurespectively.


    As the Emei Piercer was useless, I had to yank the Sirius Whip. Iaimed at the white corpse!The first whip sounded like it had hit an empty iron barrel.ck smoke emitted from the corpseasit shakily hoppedonits spot.Still, the white corpse charged again. Both of his arms aimed at my chest like a pair of giant pincers.


    Hemoved so fast that I couldnt attack again with my whip. I had to grab his arms instead.


    Unexpectedly, my strength was nothing to him. Myholdwas shaken off easily. Then, hetried to grab atmeagain. I took a deep breath andput mypower into my right hand tosh at the important acupoint on the corpses head.


    But before I could hit him, my arm felt a sharp pain. I reacted fast and retracted my arm. There were a few holesthat reachedthe bones! Blood immediately gushed, numbing my arm.


    It turned out the corpses fingernails suddenly grew aslong asdaggers. He had used his fingernails to stab me.


    I wasnt an equal opponent of this corpse. And now, as my arm was wounded, I couldnt afford to makeanother wrongmove. I gritted my teeth and moved aside before the corpse stormed toward me one more time. At the same time, my other handshed the Sirius Whip at the corpses back!


    Thesetwotamed corpses werenttop-tierones. The one in front of memoved stiffly, so it couldnt avoid mysh. It trembled when the Sirius Whip hit him.


    It was the chance I was waiting for! Seizing the time while he was shaking continuously, I rushed behind him and directly hit the nape of his neck five or sixtimes.


    ording tomon knowledge, the nape of the neck wasafatalweaknessof tamed corpses. The tamingmasters could control the corpse through a wisp of corpse energy or gas theydstored in the nape of the corpse. When the nape was hit or broken, the corpse energy would be released, whichwoulddeactivatethe corpseandturnitback into a normal corpse.


    After severalhitsin a row, the white corpsesnape was broken. I could seeawisp of white corpse gas lingering there.


    After hitting thest whip, I tried to ignore the heart-piercing pain inmyright armas I broughttwo fingers together to make a sword. I thendirectlystabbed my fingers into thecenter of hisnape!


    Shsss!


    As soon as my fingers poked through it, the white gas sizzled like hot ironmaking contact withcold water.


    A horrible pain was sent to me through my fingers.I instinctively retracted my handandchecked my fingers. There were so many blisters!


    The white corpse slowly turned to see me withhisbloodshot eyes.Suddenly, he opened his mouth and roared.


    Iknow youre afreakingfox. Can you stop screaming now?! I cursed then ran toward the Emei Piercer stabbed into the ground.


    The white corpse followed me.However, since I hadreleasedhis corpse energy, his movementswere slowed down.


    When I reached for the Emei Pierce, I deliberately acted as though I was about to fall. The white corpse bought it. He directly leaned forward with his armsthrustout like a pair of sickles, aimingat my chest.


    When he was about to reach me, I rolled a few meters away and jumped up like a koi carp jumping out of the water.Then, Idirectly stabbed the Emei Piercer into the wisp of corpse gas.


    Shsss


    The white corpse froze then fell. I stirred the Emei Piercer inside the corpses nape as I was afraid that it would move again. After I confirmed that the corpse gas had already vanished into the air, I heaved a sigh of relief.


    Then, the corpse wearing white garmentstransformedat a speed the naked eye could observe. In the end, it had be a fox with white fur.


    I was stunned, butsoon, I got it. It was a fox spirit that couldshapeshiftintoahuman form. Its corpse was made into a tamed corpse after it died. Thatwas why I had heard the fox cry!


    I stopped watching the fox spiritand turnedto seeSenior Shu.Hewas using the Holy Mother Scepter to fight against the ck corpse. No one had the upper hand yet. However, I could see thatSenior Shuhad many chances to stab the Holy Mother Scepter into the corpses nape,but he didnt


    I hesitated for a whilebeforegrabbingthe Emei Piercerand dashingtoward them. Although I knew I couldntde lot ofdamage to thecorpse, I could distract him for a while.


    Soon, the ck corpsehadthelower handas the two of us were attacking him. He turned and rushed into the forest.


    His movementexposedhis nape to us. Iraisedthe Emei Piercerand wasabout tohithim.


    However, Senior Shugrabbed my armand muttered, After him.


    Understood!


    I readSenior Shusmind. Even if wedealt withthe two tamed corpses here, wewouldnt be able to solve the problem thoroughly. The real trouble-maker was the tamingmaster hiding in the dark.


    That person must know about us already. We needed to get him as soon as possible.


    Tamingmasters were the sort of people that would take revenge foratrivial offense. As we had messed with his business and killed his tamed corpse, we had a big grudge against us now!


    The ck corpse ran slowly at first. However, as soon as he got deep into the forest, he elerated. Fortunately,Senior Shuand I were also good at running. We didnt lose track of him.


    The corpse was running toward the other nk of Mount Horse Saddle, which was on the opposite sideofthe path we had taken to get to the mountain. Inadvertently, wedleft Mount Horse Saddle to an unknown mountain nk.


    At this time, the corpse wearing ck clothes had slowed down.He also turned around to check on us from time to time, just as if he wanted tosee if we were stillfollowing him.Senior Shuthought for a short while then directly sped up.


    Strangely, the corpse stopped running. As we came closer to him, we saw a cold, dark smirk on his face. His sharp teeth sparkled coldly, which lookedrathereerie.


    I didnt know why, but I felt restless and worried. A bad premonition aroseinmy heart. I grabbedSenior Shus arm.Somethings wrong.


    Huh?


    Senior Shuwas bewildered. Then, he acted as though nothing had happenedand continuedto approach the corpse. However, he didnt let go of my arm whilesniffing around.


    Afterwe had walkeddozens of meters,Senior Shus arm suddenly shook. I looked at him and saw hehadayer of cold sweat on his forehead.


    Dont panic. On three, we jump. Understand?


    Senior Shus gaze didnt leave the ck corpse when he hurriedly talked to me. I didnt know what he had found, but I nodded to show him that I got it.
