The Demonic Cultivator In Zombie World novel Chapter 153

The elderly villager with dark, aged skin staggered, nearly falling. However, the young Doctor Jiang was quick to react, swiftly steadying him.

The villager, grateful, was about to speak when suddenly a thumb-sized red insect crawled out of his mouth. In an instant, the insect violently exploded.

The intense explosion engulfed the house and the surrounding three or four buildings in fierce flames.

Boom!

The horrific blast swept through the area, scattering debris and splinters everywhere. The nearby villagers were stunned.

Buzz!

At that moment, an immensely powerful presence descended from the sky, pressing down on everyone like a great mountain. The villagers looked towards the horizon and were astonished to see four figures standing on beams of light, hovering in mid-air.

"Immortals! We did not know immortals were visiting; forgive us for not greeting you from afar!"

The villagers were utterly terrified and immediately fell to their knees in worship. However, the four figures remained silent, their gazes fixed on the chaotic ruins left by the explosion.

"I've hidden here for sixty years, wanting nothing more than to live as a mortal... why... why must you come to find me! You killed my wife! You killed my child!"

A voice emerged from the ruins.

Debris, bricks, and wooden beams were blasted away by a surge of Spiritual Qi.

Doctor Jiang stood unharmed amid the destruction, his eyes cold and filled with deep resentment as he looked up at the four Golden Core cultivators from the Heaven Burning Sect.

The leader of the Heaven Burning Sect Golden Core cultivators, however, did not respond to his accusations but instead spoke on his own accord.

"Mo Ming, a Golden Core cultivator of the Nether Dao Sect, a close aide of the Overlord Shang Tianjue. After the collapse of the Nether Dao Sect, he vanished.

That Fireburn Insect just now also contained a Rot Soul Insect, specifically designed to counteract the technique you practice. Your strength has already been greatly diminished."

After finishing his statement, he calmly said, "Mo Ming, come with us."

Whoosh!

The four figures moved at once, closing in rapidly. Although Mo Ming was powerful, he was outnumbered; in the blink of an eye, he was subdued by the four.

"Who… who told you I was here! Who told you the weakness of my technique!"

Mo Ming, covered in blood, roared like a maddened beast. The four Golden Core cultivators remained silent.

A talisman struck Mo Ming, silencing him as he sank into a forced calm. In the blink of an eye, the four figures vanished without a trace, leaving behind only the chaos of Yun Family Village.

...

White Water River.

This great river, majestic and vast, originated in Yan Country, grew in strength through Yu Country, and finally surged eastward into the vast ocean.

Stolen content warning: this tale belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences elsewhere.

Many years ago, during a succession crisis in Yu Country, the ruler of Yan Country attempted to annex it. The then Grand General of Yu Country chose to fight halfway across the White Water River.

A brutal melee ensued. Ultimately, Yan Country was repelled, and Yu Country was also severely weakened. Both sides left hundreds of thousands of corpses along the White Water River and withdrew.

Since then, the White Water River Battlefield was born. Perhaps due to the dense malevolent energy, the waters flowing past this site also carried an intense chill.

At this moment, a figure sat meditating at the center of the White Water River Battlefield. The rolling river flowed swiftly beneath him. He floated above the water, undisturbed, the calm belying the storm within.

He was Shang Tianjue. He had been waiting for a long time again.
