I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 492

Chapter 492 Anger

“These evil corpses can actually grow stronger?”

Feeling the corpses’ surging aura, Mu Tian and the others’ expressions changed again.

They were also more convinced that the evil cultivator hiding in the shadows must be a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Otherwise, even an evil cultivator at the peak of the Innate Realm wouldn’t be able to set up such a powerful evil formation.

Seeing the corpses’ aura still growing, Mu Tian knew he couldn’t continue.

He decided to strike first, unleashing a powerful sword energy towards the head of one of the corpses.

But the next moment, a crisp sound made his expression darken.

His sword energy struck the corpse’s head, making a sound like steel clashing.

While it could still break through the corpse’s flesh, the skull remained unscathed, and instead shattered his sword energy.

The bones of these corpses had become harder than refined steel!

Seeing Mu Tian’s sword energy shattered, the others were equally shocked.

Mu Tian was already the strongest among them. If even his sword energy was ineffective, then theirs would be even less effective.

“Everyone, there’s no other way. Prepare to fight to the death. Close combat is the only option.”

Seeing this, Mu Tian forced himself to calm down and said in a deep voice. He

then pulled out a pill from his pocket and prepared to consume it.

This was the pill he had exchanged from the sect before going down the mountain for training.

Upon taking it, his spiritual power would surge to a frenzy, rapidly increasing his strength.

However, once the effects wore off, he would be severely weakened, even weaker than a post-natal Grandmaster.

He would need at least ten days of rest to fully recover.

This pill was one that should never be used unless in dire straits.

Hearing Mu Tian’s words, the others also took out their pills. Previously,

they had only used sword energy to fight the enemy, fearing the poison in the evil corpses.

But now, with the sword energy ineffective and their retreat blocked by the evil cultivator’s formation, they had no choice but to fight.

They didn’t believe the heads of these evil corpses could remain so strong against the swords empowered by their spiritual power!

Mu Tian swallowed the pill in one gulp, and with his mind urging it on, the medicinal power rapidly dissolved.

The next moment, he felt a surge of spiritual energy, a powerful force surging through his body.

Knowing the pill’s effect wouldn’t last long, Mu Tian didn’t hesitate. He swung his sword and leaped forward, attacking the evil corpses, which were still absorbing the black energy.

Seeing this, the others also swallowed the pill and rushed forward.

Mu Tian, the first to attack, had already rushed to an evil corpse and thrust his sword.

Fueled by spiritual energy, his sword shone with a sharp edge, his speed reaching extreme speed.

With a single strike, he pierced the evil corpse’s head,

which had previously been impenetrable by the sword energy. The evil corpse, whose head had been pierced by his sword, trembled, the black energy gradually dissipated, and fell backwards.

“It worked!”

The followers, seeing this, were overjoyed.

They drew their swords one by one, each striking down an evil corpse.

But then, the evil corpses counterattacked.

Each one brandished its claws, charging towards Mu Tian and his companions.

Judging by the powerful winds stirred up by their claws, both their strength and speed had increased significantly, reaching the level of the initial Xiantian realm.

Qiujia Village was a large village, and there were at least dozens of evil corpses within.

Even Mu Tian and his companions, with their advanced cultivation, felt immensely pressured by the combined attacks of dozens of Xiantian-level evil corpses. Fortunately,

these evil corpses were inanimate, and while their speed and strength reached the Xiantian realm, their moves were crude.

For a while, Mu Tian and his companions were able to hold their own, occasionally slaying one.

However, as the black aura grew thicker, the surrounding evil corpses grew stronger.

They even began to unite, exacerbating the pressure on Mu Tian and his companions.

Amidst the fierce battle, Lu Qing’s side remained calm.

Although he didn’t exude any imposing aura, inexplicably, none of the evil corpses dared approach.

Unfortunately, Mu Tian and the others didn’t have the energy to notice this happening.

“Brother,”

Xiaoyan didn’t follow Zhao Feng and the others forward, but turned to look at Lu Qing.

“Go ahead, do what you want to do,”

Lu Qing encouraged, perceiving her thoughts.

“I understand, brother!”

With her brother’s approval, Xiaoyan felt reassured. She drew her sword, moved in a flash, and approached an evil corpse, piercing its skull with a single blow.

“Junior Sister Xiaoyan, be careful! These evil corpses are tough to deal with!”

Seeing Xiaoyan approach, Mu Tian and the others moved aside to allow her to blend into their formation.

“The little girl is still hiding her strength,”

Lu Qing observed, smiling.

However, he nodded slightly at the performance of Mu Tian and the others.

While these sect disciples’ minds and willpower might be somewhat lacking, their character was respectable.

At least they dared to fight against a demon cultivator more powerful than themselves, rather than surrendering out of sheer terror.

“But… this guy won’t just watch Xiaoyan and the others slaughter all the demon corpses he painstakingly cultivated, will he?”

Lu Qing’s gaze flickered towards something else.

With his strength, the demon cultivator couldn’t hide from his senses.

He knew exactly where he was hiding.

However, this was Xiaoyan’s training; he wouldn’t intervene unless faced with an uncontrollable situation.

As expected, watching Mu Tian and the others slaughter his newly-cultivated demon corpse with ease,

the demon cultivator, lurking in the shadows, finally lost his composure.

He had been active in Lin Province recently, intending to plunder the inhabitants of each village, absorbing their essence and blood for cultivation. He

planned to wait until the righteous forces reacted and then move on to the next province, avoiding any public outburst.

But a few days ago, he plundered several villagers from Qiujia Village.

He stumbled upon the fact that some of the villagers seemed to possess a unique bloodline.

After absorbing the essence and blood, not only did his cultivation greatly increase, but his remaining corpse was also perfect for refining into evil corpses.

As an evil cultivator, how could he miss such a golden opportunity to enhance his strength?

Immediately, the evil cultivator set up a massive corpse-refining formation in Qiujia Village.

Not only did it drain the essence and blood of the villagers, but it also transformed every corpse into evil corpses.

However, he didn’t anticipate that no sooner had he transformed the corpses into evil corpses than several righteous disciples arrived.

Unfortunately, having just absorbed a large amount of essence and blood and now on the verge of a breakthrough, he couldn’t attack directly and had to use his newly refined evil corpses to fight.

Unexpectedly, these righteous disciples proved quite formidable, unable to defeat even the evil corpses, even with the array’s blessing.

Watching Mu Tian and the others continuously slay the evil corpses, the evil cultivator grew anxious.

These evil corpses, imbued with special bloodlines, held immense potential. If they continued to be decimated, he would suffer significant losses.

“You little brats, stop being so arrogant!”

The evil cultivator, in a rage, made a hand gesture.

The next moment, the ground shook, and three black coffins broke out of the ground and fell to the ground.
