It was just an iron-armored corpse, but it required the combined efforts of two people to barely deal with it. Moreover, there were so many iron-armored corpses here.
This time, not only did it not ignite everyone’s confidence, it actually made them more worried.
“These iron-armored corpses seem to be stronger than we imagined. Why don’t we retreat first?”
“That’s right. It seems like the Demon Ancestor’s mystic realm is really not fated to be with us young cultivators.”
Many people saw how powerful the armored corpses were and immediately began to retreat.
No matter how many benefits there were, they had to first have the life to take these benefits.
“We’ve already come this far, and you’re only thinking of retreating now? Isn’t it a little too late?!”
“This is the demon ancestor’s mystic realm. Even if it’s just the tip of the iceberg, it’s enough for us to use!”
“If we seize this opportunity now, we will regret it for the rest of our lives!”
Some people wanted to leave, while others wanted to advance.
The benefits were simply too tempting.
It had only been a few hours, but how many good things had they seen?
These were good things that they couldn’t even see outside!
Now that they were in front of them, should they leave at this time? That would be worse than killing them!
The conflict between the two caused everyone to fall into chaos.
No one knew what to do next?
Should they just leave like this? Or should they continue to move forward?
No one knew, but no one made a move.
They were all watching the actions of others to see what other people would choose.
But in fact, this was also because of the greed in their hearts. In the end, they still couldn’t bear to part with the benefits here, so they didn’t leave directly.
“Zhao Dahu, are you really not going to make a move?”
Just as these armored corpses were about to rush forward, Mr. Xu suddenly spoke.
Hidden under the bronze mask, those lifeless eyes quietly stared at Zhao Dahu, as if they were looking at a clown who was trying to play a little trick but was full of flaws.
“Mr. Xu, what are you saying? If I were to…”
“The corpse candle, take it out.”
Zhao Dahu’s body suddenly trembled, and he looked up at Mr. Xu in shock.
How did he know about corpse candle?
I haven’t used this thing since I made it. Even Erhu and Xiaohu didn’t know about it. How did he know about it?!
Zhao Dahu really couldn’t understand. He had already hidden it very well.
How did this Mr. Xu know all of this?!
“Old Zhao, do you really have a way? Quickly take it out!”
“Everyone is on the same rope now. Don’t hide it anymore.”
“Zhao Dahu, if you dare to trick us, I guarantee that you will die in front of me! !”
The crowd didn’t care whether it was true or not. They immediately began to pressure Zhao Dahu.
After all, compared to the iron-armored corpses that were about to charge up, Zhao Dahu was a cultivator that was much easier to deal with!
As for the matter of them wanting to trick Zhao Dahu previously, didn’t that not happen yet?
Then say a hammer!
“Roar!!”
Just as everyone was threatening Zhao Dahu, these iron-armored corpses finally couldn’t hold themselves back anymore.
One after another, they roared and charged up, seeing that a bloody battle was about to occur.
Everyone gathered their spirits and gripped their weapons with a serious expression. They were about to fight, but suddenly, these armored corpses stopped moving.
“Uh…”
All of a sudden, these armored corpses looked as if they were blind. They looked around, but they couldn’t see anything.
“What’s going on?!”
Everyone looked at these armored corpses with puzzlement. How did these armored corpses suddenly become blind?
“Zhao Dahu, what is that candle in your hand? !”
Some sharp-eyed people also saw the candle in Zhao Dahu’s hand. The candle was not burning with normal orange flames, but a ghostly green flame.
This should be the corpse candle that Mr. Xu had mentioned earlier.
“Lord Taoist, do you know what this corpse candle is?”
This time, even the Envoy of Fire and the master of the Blood Fiend sect did not know what the corpse candle in Zhao Dahu’s hand was, so they could only ask the White Bone Taoist.
“Corpse Candle is a unique tool in the path of corpse cultivation. After lighting it, it can make zombies below the Sea of Qi realm lose their vision, sense of smell, and other senses. It can also slightly suppress the bloodlust of zombies.”
“Because the materials needed for corpse candle are special, and the effect is not great, so very few people make this thing. It’s normal that you don’t know.”
“I see.”
Only then did the two people nod their heads. It seemed that they had completely lost interest in this corpse candle.
After all, it could only deal with zombies of the first three states. It was completely useless to them.
However, the itinerant cultivators below were all excited.
“Zhao Dahu actually has such a good item. No wonder he dared to risk his life.”
“Even the armored corpse couldn’t stop them. Now, they should be able to obtain these treasures, right?”
“Didn’t they say that there’s a path behind this zombie cave? Now, we can finally see what’s behind it.”
Even though the demon ancestor’s mystic realm had only opened a tiny bit, it was still extremely valuable.
However, the things inside should be more precious than he had imagined!
Many itinerant cultivators did not leave even after they confirmed that they did not have the ability to enter and explore.
Instead, more and more itinerant cultivators came and gathered here to watch the results of their exploration.
After all, this was the Devil Ancestor’s Mystic Realm!
It was also a good thing to be able to see more. At the very least, it would allow him to gain some knowledge and experience.
There were many cultivators who came with these thoughts. Moreover, it was not necessarily that they did not have the intention of going in to pick up some benefits.
Therefore, it was also a good thing for them that Zhao Dahu and the others could go deeper.
“Alright, let’s continue.”
Zhao Dahu held the corpse candle and looked at Mr. Xu calmly.
Therefore, the people who were not attacked by the zombies did not thank Zhao Dahu. Instead, they looked at the corpse candle in Zhao Dahu’s hand.
It was only when Zhao Erhu and Zhao Xiaohu took a step forward and blocked their line of sight that they looked away.
“Big brother, the old master doesn’t seem to be in a good condition.”
Zhao Xiaohu carried his zombie monkey to Zhao Dahu’s side and spoke to Zhao Dahu with some worry.
As for the old master he spoke of, it was Zhao Erhu’s natal corpse. It was said that when they were still mortals, the master who taught them fist techniques was later turned into a zombie by Zhao Erhu.
“Yes, I saw it.”
Zhao Dahu nodded and took out a red box from his storage bag and threw it to Zhao Erhu. “Erhu, let the old master eat it. Let’s continue walking.”
“Mr. Xu, what should we do now?”
