Chapter 838: The Other Side of the Teleportation Gate
The Golden Corpse leader had no leverage, so it could only float awkwardly in the void. It gathered strength in its right hand and swung it forward fiercely. Its sharp claws only tore through the airflow, causing no spatial fluctuations. “With my strength, I can’t even cause spatial fluctuations. This is definitely not Cang Mang Star, which is a low-level world, but a cultivation world.”
The Golden Corpse leader immediately made a deduction.
“My lord, look there, it’s a spatial rift!”
Just then, a nearby Silver Corpse reminded him.
The Golden Corpse leader barely maintained its posture and looked fixedly, discovering a spatial rift dozens of feet away.
“Damn it, what’s going on?”
The Golden Corpse leader was perplexed for a moment.
“My lord, could it be that someone ascended from Cang Mang Star and brought our teleportation gate to some cultivation world?” the Silver Corpse speculated.
“That’s impossible. The teleportation gate is made of special materials, and no one below the Immortal level can move it. An ascender from a low-level world probably can’t even pick up a single scrap of it,” the Golden Corpse leader immediately denied, then its expression turned grim:
“It seems that idiot Cai Tao indeed met with an accident. No wonder he hasn’t reported the situation to this lord for so long.”
“You’re quite smart.”
Just then, a clear female voice came through.
“Who?”
More than a dozen zombies were startled. They looked in the direction of the voice and saw a young woman wearing a white veil appear before them at some unknown time, with a bright lotus-like clone mark on her forehead.
The Golden Corpse leader was also awestruck, as it hadn’t noticed the other party approaching at all, which indicated that this woman was definitely extraordinary.
Qi Huang couldn’t be bothered to waste time. More than a dozen strands of black hair shot out from behind her head, directly binding all the zombies in place.
A group of zombies struggled subconsciously, but the hair was incredibly tough and extremely sharp. It soon cut through their skin and continued to slice inwards.
“Ah!”
The zombies let out terrified and shrill screams, and only fell silent forever when their bodies were cut into pieces. Only the Golden Corpse, a stronger leader, was left floating in place, struggling to break free.
Qi Huang didn’t want to waste any time. She moved like lightning to the side of the Silver Corpse’s bloody remains and absorbed all the assimilation power that emanated from it.
After Qi Huang absorbed the assimilation power, the big stone in her chest finally fell to the ground. This was because the assimilation True Qi in her body was barely enough for her to display her assimilation domain. From now on, she and Cheng Hong Ling could go wherever they wanted.
“Who are you? What do you want?”
The Golden Corpse leader struggled for a long time with no success and could only ask Qi Huang in anger.
With a thought from Qi Huang, her hair instantly severed one of the Golden Corpse’s arms.
“Ah… Immortal Fairy, please spare my life…”
The Golden Corpse leader immediately let out a terrified wail.
“Answer a few questions for me. If you cooperate obediently, I might spare your life.”
Qi Huang warned, then repeated the questions she had asked Cai Tao earlier.
During this time, Cheng Hong Ling had already flown over. After hearing the Golden Corpse’s answer, she said, “What this guy said is exactly the same as Cai Tao’s answer. It seems they are both telling the truth.”
“It’s a pity that he also doesn’t know what that demon named Yang Jian is looking for me for,” Qi Huang said with some disappointment.
“It seems we need to continue investigating. However, I think it’s best for us to get the teleportation gate first to increase our strength. Rushing to get to the bottom of it is just walking into a trap,” Cheng Hong Ling suggested.
“What my wife says is very true.”
Qi Huang agreed wholeheartedly and then asked the Golden Corpse, “Can you operate the teleportation gate?”
“No, the teleportation gate needs a large amount of Golden True Qi to operate. Even if I, a zombie, could do it, I wouldn’t be able to drive it.” The Golden Corpse replied awkwardly.
“Then who activated your teleportation gate? Don’t tell me there are cultivators or immortals mixed among your evil spirits.” Qi Huang questioned.
“It was activated by Lord Flying Corpse. Although it doesn’t have Golden True Qi, talismans that store True Qi can be bought anywhere,” the Golden Corpse explained.
“Very good. Your answer has satisfied me greatly. You can die now.”
With a thought from Qi Huang, her hair instantly cut the Golden Corpse into dozens of pieces of various sizes. She then went on to absorb all the assimilation power it brought with it.
“Now that we know the strongest evil spirit on Red Jade Star is only at the Flying Corpse level, shouldn’t we take the initiative to attack?” Cheng Hong Ling asked.
“Of course!”
Qi Huang displayed her assimilation domain, then pulled Cheng Hong Ling’s equally fair and tender jade hand. The two of them stepped into the teleportation gate first.
The two felt a suction force pulling them forward, and the surrounding space rapidly receded, making it impossible to see anything clearly. When the speed slowed down, they were already at the exit.
The couple leaped out and saw a vast plaza. Because hundreds of evil spirits were training there, visible Yin energy permeated the area, causing large and small pits to form on the ground, corroding the surrounding houses as well.
Since the teleportation gate was guarded by six evil spirits, Qi Huang and Cheng Hong Ling were discovered as soon as they appeared. However, because of their outstanding appearance, the guards were simply stunned.
“Hello there, zombie big brother!”
“Living people! They’re living people!”
The zombie finally reacted and immediately shouted at the top of its lungs.
The evil spirits training nearby heard the commotion and immediately lunged towards Qi Huang and Cheng Hong Ling. For them, young and beautiful women were extremely valuable, whether as food, descendants, or for procreation, they were the best choices.
“Let’s kill!”
Qi Huang signaled to Cheng Hong Ling beside her, and the couple began their slaughter. Just as Cai Tao had said, the evil spirits stationed on Red Jade Star were indeed very weak. Most of them were ordinary lonely souls and ghosts, and those above Bronze Corpse level were few and far between.
Qi Huang figured out the reason after a moment of deliberation. There were two points. First, how much assimilation power could that female demon have? Only ordinary evil spirits would not cause space to collapse when they came to low-level worlds, so she could only send more evil spirits of this level. Second, the world where Cang Mang Star was located was just a low-level world, and there was no need to send excessively strong evil spirits.
Qi Huang attacked while thinking. Thousands of evil spirits were like ants in her eyes. She could kill a large group with a mere wave of her hand, and with the help of Cheng Hong Ling, who was at the peak of the Heavenly Punishment Realm.
“How dare you low-level world bitches invade my stationed territory,” a booming roar suddenly came. A male zombie wearing armor flew over. It was burly and brought with it a large gust of wind, creating a deep gully in the earth below. It was clear that this was the strongest Flying Corpse.
“Get down here!”
Qi Huang stated bluntly. Her spiritual sense emerged from her body, crushing space, and suppressing the Flying Corpse General from the sky, then slamming it heavily onto the plaza.
“This… how is this possible? How can there be such a powerful being in a mere… mere low-level world?” the Flying Corpse General complained with reluctance while struggling.
Qi Huang’s spiritual sense transformed into a hand and directly grasped the Flying Corpse General’s neck, lifting it effortlessly to her front.
The Flying Corpse General struggled powerlessly, like a chick whose throat had been grasped.
“Answer Eternal Immortal a few questions. If you confess honestly, I might let you live.” Qi Huang made her demand.
“It’s already a dead person.” Cheng Hong Ling beside her reminded her impatiently.
“Ah? Then let it die? That’s not right… Forget it…” Qi Huang shook her head helplessly and reiterated, “As long as you confess honestly, Eternal Immortal will let you off.”
“Swish!”
At this moment, Cheng Hong Ling had already taken action. With a backhand sword strike, she severed the Flying Corpse General’s right arm.
“Ah… she hasn’t even asked… why did you attack first?” the Flying Corpse General yelled in pain, questioning.
“If I don’t cut off an arm, how will you cooperate honestly? This Immortal Fairy doesn’t want to waste time,” Cheng Hong Ling replied indifferently.
“You…” The Flying Corpse General was speechless and could only squeeze out a few tears as a protest.
Qi Huang then asked the questions she wanted to know. Unfortunately, this Flying Corpse General was too low-level and still didn’t know what the female demon wanted with the girl with the red tear mole.
“Forget it, let it tell us how to operate the teleportation gate first. With this thing, we can go wherever we want in the future, no matter how far,” Cheng Hong Ling urged.
“Did you hear me? Tell Eternal Immortal the method to operate the teleportation gate immediately, or your head will fall to the ground later,” Qi Huang threatened.
