The Demonic Cultivator In Zombie World-Chapter 326: Showdown

Jin Dafu spoke calmly, "Don't underestimate him. This person is quite elusive. Not only did he hide his strength well, but he even managed to kill Zhao Kai from Feather Transformation Heaven Palace. He must have some hidden trump cards."

Zhong Hui sneered, "Zhao Kai was just a Nascent Soul Sixth Layer cultivator from a fifth-tier sect. How could he possibly compare to us? Both of us are Nascent Soul Sixth Layer cultivators from a sixth-tier sect of the Exquisite Treasures Alliance. Even if he was in the same realm, how could a cultivator from a fifth-tier sect compare to one from a sixth-tier sect?"

Jin Dafu's brow furrowed slightly at Zhong Hui's dismissive tone.

The Exquisite Treasures Alliance was internally divided into several factions, but broadly speaking, it could be split into two major groups.

One faction was the merchant faction, like Jin Dafu's. They had made their fortune through trade, and wherever there were opportunities to seize vast amounts of wealth, they would dive in.

The other faction was the territorial faction. At first, the merchant faction had hired cultivators to guard them with large sums of money. Over time, the territorial faction integrated into the Exquisite Treasures Alliance and gained considerable influence. The main goal of the territorial faction was to expand the territory of the Exquisite Treasures Alliance, occupying more cultivation planets.

Zhong Hui originally belonged to the territorial faction. However, after violating certain rules, he was forced to flee. Jin Dafu, having known Zhong Hui for a long time, had taken him in.

Jin Dafu had always known Zhong Hui's arrogant and haughty nature, so he didn't mind it much. Zhong Hui looked down on Chu Xuan, but Jin Dafu thought highly of him.

Anyone who could surprise Situ Kong and be worth the expense of having his strength investigated would not be a person with an empty reputation.

...

A moment later, by Flying Fish Lake.

It was deep into the night, and the lake was completely quiet. Most of the flying fish had settled to the bottom of the lake to sleep.

Only a lone figure stood quietly by the lake's edge.

Zhong Hui walked briskly toward him. "Sect Leader, you are punctual."

Chu Xuan turned around, his voice deep, "Is what you said true? The ones who attacked you were from the Heavenly Blood Alliance?"

Zhong Hui lowered his voice, "Indeed! Now that I think back, although those people donned the robes of the Reincarnation Sect and used other spells, they still couldn't hide the blood-stained scent that clung to their robes.

The Heavenly Blood Alliance was sent by the Divine Sect to the battlefield, suffering heavy casualties. They likely hold a deep grudge against the Divine Sect! With the Heavenly Blood Alliance stationed on Mystic Azure, I was afraid of alarming them, so I invited you here tonight in secret."

Chu Xuan furrowed his brows deeply. "I didn't expect it to be the Heavenly Blood Alliance's handiwork."

Zhong Hui whispered, "Please, Sect Leader Chu, contact the Divine Sect directly and ask them to send someone to rescue me. If not, the Heavenly Blood Alliance will surely kill me to silence me."

Chu Xuan nodded thoughtfully, "Yes, they will definitely try to kill you to silence you."

This novel's true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.

As the words fell from his lips, an invisible divine sense giant hand suddenly struck into Zhong Hui's sea of consciousness!

Zhong Hui let out a muffled groan, and blood immediately started flowing from his nostrils. He instinctively retreated rapidly.

Chu Xuan raised an eyebrow. "Impressive. Your spirit sense is quite strong to be able to withstand my Sky-Tearing Cold Palm."

Had it been anyone else, this attack would have been enough to severely damage their soul, freezing them in place for a long while. In that time, Chu Xuan could have easily killed them.

This Zhong Hui truly had some strength.

Zhong Hui staggered back a few steps before crashing into a thick wall with a loud bang.

He froze in place.

Where were the walls by Flying Fish Lake?

Instinctively, he activated his defensive magic treasure.

In an instant, his body was enveloped by radiant golden armor, fusing onto him with lightning speed.

The moment the armor completed its formation, two massive hands like iron pincers slammed down from either side. They gripped his arms tightly and wrenched them apart with tremendous force.

Zhong Hui was both shocked and enraged.

Such immense power!

He let out a furious roar, unleashing a burst of golden sword light that shot backward with overwhelming force.

A muffled grunt echoed from behind.

The two hands gripping his arms finally released their hold.

Zhong Hui quickly turned around, taking advantage of the light to look behind him.

There, he saw an imposing and mighty Corpse King standing tall!

"Ah, so you figured it out long ago."

Zhong Hui wiped away the blood from his nose and glared fiercely at Chu Xuan.

He growled, "Jin Dafu, come out! We'll kill this bastard together!"

Chu Xuan smiled faintly, "He won't be able to help you."

Zhong Hui spun around to look.

Not far away, a battle was indeed breaking out. The two figures were none other than Jin Dafu and Shang Xingchen.

Zhong Hui's face darkened further. The other side had been prepared. Was this battle even winnable?

But soon, his expression turned cold. Whether or not they could win would depend on whether they fought or not.

This was the Heavenly Infinite Sect's territory. To survive, he had to end this fight quickly and escape. It was a do-or-die situation now, a fight to the death!

Chu Xuan smiled slightly, "Don't worry, I've set up soundproof and light-blocking formations around Flying Fish Lake. Everything happening here is invisible to the outside world."

He raised his hand and squeezed it sharply.

Zhong Hui instantly felt an overwhelming threat, though he couldn't pinpoint its origin.

Boom!

In the next instant, a massive ice pillar shot up from the ground.

Even though Zhong Hui reacted quickly, the ice pillar struck him with tremendous force.

"Explode!"

Chu Xuan's voice dropped coldly.

The ice pillar shattered with a tremendous explosion, turning into countless shards of ice that surged toward Zhong Hui, threatening to envelop him entirely.

Zhong Hui's brow furrowed. He had traveled far and wide, encountering many techniques from the Wheel of Reincarnation and the Shocking Heaven Sect, so he instantly recognized the technique: Mysterious Heavenly Ice Soul Scroll.

Where had Chu Xuan learned this technique?

However, in the critical moment of the fight, Zhong Hui had no time to think further. He immediately drew out a flaming fan, its flames roaring with intensity.

He swung the fan with great force.

The blazing flames shot out, swiftly melting the ice shards around him.

The steam billowed up.

But to Zhong Hui's surprise, the flames only melted a few yards' worth of ice shards around him. The farther ice shards remained frozen solid, showing no signs of melting at all.

"So cold…"

Zhong Hui looked around, his face turning grim as he saw that the entire area around Flying Fish Lake was shrouded in an unnatural chill.

The lake's surface had already started to freeze over!

When had this much coldness spread?

There was no doubt about it—his opponent had quietly activated another magic treasure!

Zhong Hui had guessed correctly.

Just out of his view, the Yin Frost Bottle was releasing a heavy, sinister cold mist, filling the area with a bitterly cold aura.

Within this range, all ice-based techniques and magic treasures would be enhanced.

"Damn it…"

Zhong Hui cursed inwardly and immediately threw out two Nascent Soul-level talismans—Sun Fire Talismans.

Sun Fire was the fire of the sun, symbolizing intensity, heat, and explosion. It was the perfect choice to clear away the ice shards surrounding him.

Zhong Hui knew that staying within the ice shards would only lead to his downfall. He had to break free if he wanted any chance of turning the tide.

Boom, boom, boom!

The Sun Fire Talismans exploded with violent flames, filling the air with a sea of fire.

The ice shards were rapidly melted, creating a narrow path.

Zhong Hui didn't hesitate. He stepped lightly into the air and immediately consumed his Nascent Soul essence, activating his teleportation technique to disappear in a flash.
