As soon as Old Zhang's words fell, I felt a gloomy and cold wind behind me, and a nauseating smell of corpses entered my nostrils.
"Bad!"
My face suddenly changed, but I had no time to escape. I had to quickly crouch down to barely avoid a deadly blow from behind! The fierce palm wind almost grazed my scalp and instantly cut off several strands of my hair!
Oh no, my handsome hairstyle is ruined now.
At this moment, the glutinous rice sprinkled by Old Zhang finally "crackled" and struck its body.
"Ah..."
It howled in pain, but showed no intention of escaping, instead fiercely clawing towards the back of my head!
In a critical moment, I had no time to think, and reflexively lifted my right foot, using the "Yellow Dog Urination" move, and fiercely kicked its heart!
It wasn't until this moment that I could see the other party clearly. Wasn't it the "Feng Chen" we were looking for?
"Bang!"
A dull sound, like kicking an iron plate, made my entire right leg numb. "Feng Chen" stood still as a rock, not retreating an inch!
Of course, my kick was not entirely ineffective. With a strong rebound force, I stumbled forward, quickly putting some distance between us.
At the same time, Old Zhang quickly bit his finger, formed a sword finger, and drew runes in the void, chanting: "Haughty sun, exhibit my divine light, wind, fire, thunder, guard beside, I shall enforce the order, eliminate the ominous! Decree!"
After chanting the spell, the runes Old Zhang drew in the air instantly materialized, ultimately turning into a blood light, slashing directly towards "Feng Chen."
With a muffled bang, "Feng Chen" was instantly trembling, retreating two steps. The face hit by the blood light turned charred, as if it had been burned by fire!
"Oh! How could I have forgotten about this?"
According to the records in "Zi Bu Yu," aren't zombies most afraid of being set on fire? It is said that this is the ultimate way to eliminate zombies!
Suddenly, a light bulb went off in my head. Without any hesitation, I quickly formed a fire seal with my hand and pointed towards "Feng Chen's" chest, reciting: "This fire is extraordinary. Ancestral master, grant me the burning fire, disciple wears the fire cap, fire robe, and fire shoes. All evil will turn to ash, I respect the Supreme Old Lord, urgently following the order!"
With a splutter, my fingertip instantly ignited! Unfortunately, my cultivation was still shallow. The spark only lasted half a second before it disappeared completely.
"Damn!"
Seeing this, I couldn't help but curse. As I backed away, I quickly threw a handful of glutinous rice!
When we left, we were in too much of a hurry, and our preparations were limited. Apart from glutinous rice, I couldn't think of any other means to deal with the zombie at this time!
"Ah..."
"Feng Chen" roared in pain, but a handful of glutinous rice was completely ineffective against it. It seemed to only further provoke its ferocity, as it ignored everything and lunged at me with claws and teeth!
I was seconds away from the attack! "Feng Chen's" hands, covered in corpse spots, were already in front of me. A strong stench of decay instantly enveloped me!
Just in time, Old Zhang forcibly pulled me out, while rapidly sticking a restraining talisman on "Feng Chen's" face.
The talisman emitted a yellow light, immediately immobilizing "Feng Chen," rendering it completely unable to move.
Before I could even breathe a sigh of relief, the restraining talisman let out a "hiss" and burst into flames, about to lose its effect!
Witnessing this, Old Zhang couldn't help but feel anxious and subconsciously handed me a half of a peach wood sword, saying, "Kid! What are you waiting for? Urine!"
"Oh!"
As soon as I heard this, I snapped out of it. In this life-threatening moment, I had no time for embarrassment. I quickly unzipped my pants, and urgently poured child's urine over "Feng Chen"!
"Ah..."
Just as the urine was poured, the restraining talisman on "Feng Chen's" face finally burned to ashes. Roaring in pain, it rapidly regained its ability to move and pounced at me again!
"You damn creature! Surrender now!"
Without any hesitation, Old Zhang sternly held the wet half of the peach wood sword and fiercely thrust it into "Feng Chen’s" heart, simultaneously shouting, "Four decrees, exorcise the evil with the fire of the Sun!"
With a loud rumble, the broken peach wood sword burst into flames. Just like a sun explosion, a powerful yang energy surged out instantly, making the surrounding air scorching hot!
Strangely, "Feng Chen," who was as tough as a diamond a moment ago, now seemed as fragile as tofu. With a "splutter," Old Zhang effortlessly plunged the half of the peach wood sword into its chest!
"Ah--"
As soon as the peach wood sword pierced "Feng Chen," it let out a heart-wrenching scream. A gust of black wind swept the ground, and the dark whirlwind, ravaged like a sword, roared and raged!
Old Zhang, at the forefront, was immediately pushed back two steps. Fortunately, I reacted quickly and managed to catch him!
Fortunately, the bone-chilling Yin wind didn't extinguish the Yang fire on the broken sword but stirred it into a more intense blaze. The azure flames were all-pervasive, not only igniting "Feng Chen's" clothes but also setting its surface Yin energy ablaze, causing it extreme pain!
At this rate, it probably wouldn't be long before it turned to ashes!
"Ah—spare me!"
Suddenly, an eerie scene occurred. The agonized "Feng Chen" pleaded, as the scorching flames consumed it, "Elder, I know I was wrong! Please spare my soul and let it pass!"
"Hmm?"
Upon hearing this, not only me but even Old Zhang's face changed drastically. Obviously, they did not expect that the "Feng Chen" after its transformation had its soul returned to its body?
Is this... still a zombie?
"Peculiar..."
Muttering uncertainly, Old Zhang ultimately found it hard to be cruel. He stepped forward, removed the peach wood sword, gradually extinguishing the fire on "Feng Chen's" body!
At the same time, Old Zhang pointed at "Feng Chen's" forehead, loudly chanting, "Supreme decree, transcend your lonely soul, cleanse the impurities, receive blessing for generations, decree to continue among the living, urgently transcend!"
After finishing the incantation, a somewhat ethereal figure instantly drifted out of "Feng Chen's" crown. While rising, it bowed deeply to Old Zhang, seemingly ready to journey to the netherworld--
Just at that moment, a thunderous Buddhist chant abruptly resounded from the door: "Om Mani Padme Hum!"
This was the "six-character mantra" of Buddhism?
"Trouble!"
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but shout out, and Lao Zhang was so angry that he cursed directly.
However, it's too late to say anything now!
As the loud Buddhist chant rang out, in mid-air, Feng Chen's soul was instantly struck as if by lightning, shattered like glass, completely dispersed!
"You idiot! What are you doing?"
Lao Zhang was obviously very angry. Without waiting to see who the person was, he grabbed the ashtray on the table and hurled it fiercely towards the door!
"Bang!"
The ashtray flew out quickly, but was securely caught by a powerful hand!
Upon closer inspection, the person who caught it was a fierce-looking old monk. The monk dropped the ashtray and clasped his hands together, asking in a gloomy tone, "Why is this, my friend?"
"What do you mean why?"
Lao Zhang was trembling with anger, and then pointed to the "Feng Chen" on the ground, questioning, "I have indeed helped him to transcend, as a monk, why would you not let go of his soul?"
"Humph! Evil must be eradicated! Don't you know that if you don't pull up the roots, the grass will grow again?"
The old monk's expression was equally unsightly. With a cold snort, he then sneered at us and said condescendingly, "Who are you really? Why are you here?"
"You mind your own business!"
Feeling annoyed, Lao Zhang's attitude was naturally not good. After saying this, he ignored the old monk and said to me, "Let's go!"
"Stop!"
However, just as we reached the door, the old monk blocked our way. "You can't leave! Explain the situation to me first!"
