Chapter 130 - The Mutation of Life and Death  

In the underground tomb.

In the two big coffins of the biggest stone chamber, the two Sky corpses slowly sat up. A flow of fierce and brutal corpse Qi spread out through the entirety of the underground tomb.

These two Sky corpses were a man and a woman. Both were in their forties, and their complexions were extremely pale and there were wrinkles all over their bodies.

The two Sky corpses were in the Nirvana realm, and the corpse Qi, which was wafting around their bodies, gave chills to anyone who saw it.

The sky corpses sat up, their pale grey eyes slowly rolled around, and they looked at Shi Yan while sitting inside the coffin.

The male Sky corpse slowly stood up, opened his mouth, and breathed out a white light made of corpse Qi.

The white light flew out and exploded in front of him. It split up into tiny streaks of light and shot towards the coffins in the nearby stone chambers.

Those white lights seemed to have awakened the corpse slaves inside the coffins. Once a coffin was shot with the white light, strange sounds started coming from inside.

Soon, many corpse slaves jumped out of the coffins. Some of them were stiff, while others had more fluid movements, but they all came towards Shi Yan.

The seven corpse slaves that were awakened first were now already standing in front of Shi Yan.

Shi Yan’s eyes were cold and grim. His whole body was filled with the negative energies of violence, fear, madness, and slaughter. White mist wreathed his entire body, giving off a very evil feeling.

The corpse slaves came forward and surrounded Shi Yan, but three of them were being cautious.

Those three corpse slaves were probably only refined recently, and were probably only in the Human realm before they died. When they moved, their joints made creaking and cracking sounds, as if the bones were still not completely refined. They should not have reached a hundred years of age yet.

The other four corpse slaves also seemed to be scared of the aura of negative energies around Shi Yan’s body, but they still slowly moved forward.

These four corpse slaves have a stronger corpse Qi on them. When they moved, there were no noises from their joints, and their speed was a whole lot faster.

With a cold expression, Shi Yan determined that these four corpse slaves should be Earth corpses that were refined for over a hundred years. Their limbs were no longer stiff, and they knew how to use some of their martial skills from when they were alive.

“Puchi!”

Behind him, the sound of a sharp weapon piercing into flesh suddenly resounded.

Shi Yan turned around and saw that Xia Xinyan’s little dagger had already pierced through the throat of a Corpse Sect disciple. That person’s eyes were filled with unwillingness as he fell down on his back.

After that person died, all the Profound Qi in his body scattered and flowed into Shi Yan’s body.

Including this guy, by this moment Shi Yan had already absorbed the Profound Qi of three Disaster realm warriors. Those negative powers, mixed with hate and unwillingness, all went into Shi Yan’s meridians.

Right at this moment.

Three Corpse Sect disciples became blood-red because of the grinding power of the Gravitational Field. They were slowly dying.

The Two Earth realm warriors from Yin Yang Wonderland were also separately constrained by Gravitational Fields. The red and white lights on their bodies swirled around, defending against the grinding power in the Field. Although they were constrained, they were still not hurt as they kept using the red and white light to fight against the grinding power in the Field.

After Merging Yin power, Profound Qi, and negative energies, the power of the Gravitational Fields had become astonishing. The two Earth realm warriors were completely restrained. They would never be able to break through the constraints of the Gravitational Fields.

The seven corpse slaves that first came up did not immediately attack. They only surrounded Shi Yan and Xia Xinyan.

Shi Yan and Xia Xinyan stood shoulder to shoulder, their expressions were serious. As they watched more and more corpse slave walk out of the stone chambers, their hearts slowly sank.

This underground tomb went a couple dozens of meters deep into the earth, and the tomb was covered with corpse Qi. Corpse Qi was an extremely evil power, and it could even cut off the divine consciousness.

Because of this barrier of corpse Qi, all the fluctuations of Profound Qi in here were very well concealed.

Thus, Li Zhuang, Ju Yueru, and other Corpse Sect people above the ground, hadn’t sensed the abnormality here, they still kept discussing important matters.

“We’re in danger this time.” Xia Xinyan’s voice was cold, “One Sky corpse is already enough to kill us, not to mention that there are so many corpse slaves present too.”

All the corpse slaves slowly came up, one by one. In a short moment, there were already almost a hundred corpse slaves surrounding Shi Yan and Xia Xinyan.

The three Corpse Sect disciples under the grinding power of Gravitational Field were finally dead, with their eyes rolling back into their heads.

Afterward, their Profound Qi quickly entered into Shi Yan’s body, and all the meridians in Shi Yan’s body started to tingle.

“Hang on! If we can hold up for half a day, I’ll be able to recover your martial spirit!” Shi Yan roared.

“What?” Xia Xinyan was shocked, “Do you have some sort of medicine?”

“No.” Shi Yan shook his head, “Believe me! As long as we can hold for half a day, I really have a way to recover your martial spirit!”

In the Dark Forest, he already verified the abilities of the exotic powers in his body on Di Yalan and Mu Yudie. The exotic powers could not only enhance his martial spirit and Profound Qi, it could also help others awaken and recover their martial spirits.

When Mu Yudie’s Music martial spirit was heavily injured and all the meridians in her body were shattered. But with the help of that exotic power, she quickly recovered. If that exotic power could recover Music martial spirit, then, naturally, it could also recover Xia Xinyan’s Reincarnation martial spirit.

As long as the meridians in his body could transform the Profound Qi and let it flow back into his body, then he could use that exotic power and help Xia Xinyan recover her original strength.

Time! He only needed time!

Xia Xinyan was surprised inside. She didn’t know what methods Shi Yan had, but she chose to believe in him. She said: “Alright, I’ll try my best.”

Then the green ring on her finger suddenly threw out a ripple of glowing green light.

Fist-sized silver balls quickly appeared, glistening in her palm. Once the silver balls appeared, Xia Xinyan immediately thrust her arm out and threw them at the surrounding corpse slaves.

“Boom, boom! Boom, boom, boom!”

In the underground tomb, several explosions occurred. All of those silver balls were glistening with a silver light, and once they fell on the ground, they immediately burst open, blowing many corpse slaves into many pieces.

Once, the explosion spread to the mortal slaves who were under a hundred years in age, their bodies also split open. They couldn’t defend against the power of the silver balls at all.

The Earth corpses, older than a hundred years, had very firm bodies. Under the explosion of the silver balls, their entire bodies were charred, but they were not badly hurt.

Those two Sky corpses were still unmoved in those giant coffins, but they started to scream simultaneously.

Dozens of Mortal corpses and Earth corpses, suddenly, turned crazy, under the screams of the Sky corpses. Together, they all menacingly threw themselves towards Shi Yan.

Shi Yan’s expression was cold. The Gravitational Fields that killed the three Corpse Sect disciples suddenly moved and quickly appeared in front of him.

Ten Mortal and Earth corpses sprinted forward and ran into the invisible Field. They were constrained by the crushing power of the Fields, which had a ferocious force inside. They couldn’t get out of the Field.

Taking a deep breath, Shi Yan’s body petrified, and his expression became fierce. He secretly performed his Finger Spear and headed into the group of corpse slaves.

“Boom, boom, boom! Bang, bang, bang!”

Shi Yan rampaged into the group of corpse slaves. Using the strength in his body after petrification, he crazily bombarded a lot of corpse slaves.

His body was petrified, and he was also in the Rampage state. At this moment Shi Yan’s power was skyrocketing. The evil power in his body was like a wild whirlwind, such that his blows actually sent all those corpse slaves flying out.

The Mortal corpses were all blown into the air by Shi Yan’s attacks, they couldn’t defend against Shi Yan’s fierce force.

The hundred-year-old Earth corpses had bodies as hard as iron. Under Shi Yan’s rampaging attacks, they were blown into the air, but then they would quickly stand back up, and, again, storm towards him in waves.

The bodies of Earth corpses were extremely hard. In the chest and stomach areas of some Earth corpses even had naturally formed corpse armor. The corpse armor was made of corpse Qi, and was extremely solid. Even Shi Yan’s finger spear couldn’t pierce through it.

Most Earth corpses were Disaster realm warriors during their lifetimes, and they were already able to use 100% of the power from their lifetime. Under the raging attacks of Shi Yan, the Earth corpses were completely fine, they would stand back up and fiercely storm towards Shi Yan again and again.

Two of the Earth corpses were like spirit snakes. They appeared from the crowd of Mortal corpses and, with creepy strange steps, they would suddenly appear and strike at Shi Yan from behind.

In palms of the Earth corpses, a sharp bone material knife suddenly appeared. That sharp knife rushed out of their palms, and forcefully stabbed into Shi Yan’s back.

“Bang!”

Shi Yan’s heart felt a stinging sensation. Against the sharp bone knife, Shi Yan’s petrified body could still hold up, but it was still a bit too much for him to handle.

One after another, more and more Earth corpses started using the martial skills from their lifetimes. They circulated corpse Qi, as opposed to Profound Qi, and formed various pale grey light beams, shooting them at Shi Yan from all directions.

“Boom, boom!”

In the crowd of corpse slaves, it was finally too much for Shi Yan. Shaken, he started to back up under these attacks.

Xia Xinyan wore a bright red set of armor. The armor glimmered with scorching firelight and had a very complex, yet rustic, pattern. In the pattern, there were traces of red light shining, like streaks of fire.

Glimmering firelight rippled from the armor. Xia Xinyan stood there, unmoving, but the corpse slaves rarely attacked her, as if they were very afraid of the firelight on her armor.

“Come to my side!” Xia Xinyan exclaimed.

Shi Yan’s expression was ferocious. In the midst of corpse slaves, he suddenly clenched his teeth and performed the Seal of Life and Death.

Pieces of hand seals quickly appeared in his palms. One hand with Life Seals, and the other with Death Seals. The fourteen seals didn’t merge together, instead, they separated into two different directions and rushed out.

“Rumble!”

The seven Life Seals shot out, and the corpse slaves, that were hit, exploded into pieces They couldn’t resist the attack of even a single Life Seal.

The seven Death Seals shot out, and fell on the corpse slaves. Those corpse slaves were fine, and continued to storm forward.

Shi Yan was both delighted and surprised.

The surprise was that the Death Seals had no effect on these dead beings. The delight was that the power of the Life Seals on the corpse slaves was ridiculously strong. They actually shattered the Earth corpses in one blow.

The Life Seals contained vigorous amounts of vitality. The strange vitality in the Life Seals seemed to be the nemesis of these dead beings!

Once touched by the Life Seals, whether it be the Mortal corpses or the Earth corpses, their bodies would all immediately shatter. The Life Seals seemed to have stirred the devastating emotions in the bodies of the corpse slaves. The lifeless corpse slaves couldn’t handle a single blow from the Life Seals.

“Boom, boom!”

Shi Yan looked inspired, he gave up on using the Death Seals, and continuously struck out with the Life Seals.

All the Mortal corpses and Earth corpses were torn to pieces once they were touched by the Life Seals.

At this moment, the two sky corpses flew out of their coffins. A feeling of excitement flashed across their pale grey eyes.

Once they came over, they quickly pushed away the surrounding corpse slaves. Puffing their chests, they directly faced the two sets of Life Seals that Shi Yan sent out.

“Boom, boom, boom~~”

The fourteen Life Seals separately fell onto the two bodies.

Unexpectedly, the two Sky corpses did not burst apart from the inside. The fourteen Life Seals sank into the bodies of the two Sky corpses and glowed inside their bodies, slowly shifting into the minds of the two Sky corpses.

“Whirr!”

In the minds of the two Sky corpses, there was suddenly a strange sound. Life projections, the Life Seals clearly appeared on the skulls of the two Sky corpses. The brains of the Sky corpses seemed to shift around in a peculiar trend.

A gust of strange life force slowly grew inside the minds of the two Sky corpses. These two Sky corpses, which had been dead for thousands of years, seemed to have regained some of their life.

——This ‘life’ was completely different from a human’s!

Shi Yan was stunned, he blankly watched the mutation occur in the two Sky corpses, not knowing what had happened.

Then, at this moment, the Blood Vein Ring on his finger also suddenly put off a series of colorful lights.
