Chapter 9: Dead Again

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After killing the first ghostly being, seven or eight more jumped out of the gray fog.

However, they were all killed by Su Mu.

These things weren’t strong.

They were very fast, but they were only slightly stronger than ordinary people.

However, they were tough and extremely tenacious.

Only by cutting them into eight pieces could they be completely killed.

Su Mu examined them and found that these ghosts seemed to be transformed from corpses.

The “Lu Qingqing” who had tried to ambush him earlier was also a skinny and hideous corpse.

The reason why it was able to deceive Su Mu’s eyes was probably because it had used some kind of illusion technique.

But the bad thing was that even after dealing with these ghostly beings, the surrounding gray fog still hadn’t dispersed.

“This is not good…”

Su Mu frowned and muttered to himself, then began to search the gray fog.

If they were alive, he wanted to see them. If they were dead, he wanted to see their corpses.

No matter what, he could not leave Lu Tianlang and his family behind.

…

Su Mu was trapped in the gray fog like a huge maze.

He couldn’t get out, no matter how hard he tried!

Along the way, they didn’t even see a single bird or beast, let alone a human.

He didn’t know how long he had walked when a strange sound suddenly sounded.

“It’s midnight, the heavenly gate is open!”

With this voice, the surrounding gray fog receded like the tide.

Soon after, Su Mu was shocked to find that a dilapidated building had appeared in front of him.

It was the broken temple from his previous life!

How did this ruined temple appear here?

Why was it in front of him?

Su Mu was less than ten feet away from it, so how could he not have noticed it?

Su Mu’s hair stood on end.

“Creak~~~”

As Su Mu’s mind was in chaos, the two old temple doors slowly opened.

A gust of cold wind blew out, carrying with it a strange meaty fragrance.

Smelling this scent, Su Mu couldn’t help but feel goosebumps all over his body.

But very soon after, his heart was filled with anger!

In the temple, five human-shaped ghostly figures were surrounding a large pot and feasting.

There were countless bones in the pot and four corpses that had not been eaten. They were Lu Tianlang’s family of four!

Their eyes were filled with fear and their faces were twisted.

It was as if they had not expected to end up like this!

…

Midnight was the most ominous time of the day.

The Yin Qi reached its peak, killing all living things and ghosts!

This ruined temple was obviously not a good place.

Su Mu could clearly see that one of the five human-shaped ghostly figures looked like Li Tiezhu.

He vaguely understood what had happened.

Why did the honest, kind, and friendly Li Tiezhu suddenly eat his own son?

He had been affected by some strange power.

Even if Su Mu was only a step away from becoming a third-rate warrior, stepping into this ruined temple would not end well for him.

However, there were things a man should do and things he shouldn’t do.

Lu Tianlang’s family had done him a great favor, and now they had died here because of him.

No matter what Su Mu believed, he couldn’t just leave like that.

Su Mu walked into the ruined temple step by step.

The moment he stepped in, he suddenly felt as if he was swallowed by darkness, as if he had fallen into a quagmire!

In an instant, Su Mu’s strength had been reduced by half.

This made his heart sink to the bottom of the valley.

But what happened next was beyond Su Mu’s expectations.

The five human-shaped monsters were still devouring crazily, as if they didn’t notice Su Mu, who was not far from them.

On the contrary, the mud statuette in the middle of the ruined temple suddenly moved its eyes and stared at Su Mu as it spoke.

“His vitality is exuberant, and his Yin Qi is extremely heavy. There was such a person in this world? How peculiar!

“It’s a pity that his martial arts cultivation is too low. If he’s a first-rate warrior, then what?

“Giggle! Giggle!”

As it spoke, the broken clay statue let out a strange laugh, causing Su Mu’s head to hurt.

“What the hell are you?”

Even though he was prepared to die, Su Mu was not going to make it easy for him.

He had to get more useful information to prepare for his next rebirth.

Who knew that after hearing his words, the mud statue would suddenly become angry.

“Impudent!

“I’m a Dao master, how dare you profane me?

“Aren’t you going to sacrifice your flesh and blood to help me refine the five elements corpse puppet?”

After saying that, the five corpse puppets that had been eating suddenly turned their heads and stared at Su Mu with death-like eyes.

Su Mu didn’t pay any attention to the five ghostly figures who were obviously puppets. He jumped towards the clay sculpture and ruthlessly slashed down with his huge sword!

“Swish!”

A blade light flashed, but Su Mu didn’t hit it.

The mud statuette was clearly in front of him, but his blade passed through it like an illusion. It had no effect at all.

“Blasphemy against a Dao sovereign, he should be killed!”

The mud statuette’s mouth opened, and a strange voice sounded.

At the same time, pale ghost hands stretched out from the ground and the walls, grabbing at Su Mu from all directions.

Fortunately, these ghost hands could be cut.

Su Mu waved his blade and cut off many ghost hands.

However, his movements were still greatly restricted.

What was even worse was that those five corpse puppets were already charging at him!

The mud statuette had called the five corpse puppets the five elements corpse puppets.

It was a world of difference from the ghouls outside!

They were not just extremely strong, they also possessed incredibly tough skin and were deceptively quick.

They also carried a strange and cold metallic energy.

They drilled into Su Mu’s body, rending flesh and spilling blood.

…

After a quarter of an hour, Su Mu was too weak to resist.

Due to a moment of carelessness, Li Tiezhu’s corpse puppet took advantage of the opening and bit his neck.

“I didn’t expect to die in his hands in this life.”

A helpless thought emerged in Su Mu’s mind, and then his consciousness fell into darkness.

He had died again.

After Su Mu’s death, the other four corpse puppets quickly followed suit and began to madly gnaw at his flesh.

The [Nirvana] talent allowed Su Mu to burn his lifespan and possess Qi and vitality that far exceeded ordinary people.

Not to mention that he also practiced martial arts.

And [Tianyin] allowed Su Mu to possess extremely dense Yin energy.

These two things that originally appeared at the same time were rarely combined together, becoming the best blood food for the zombies!

…

Not long after, Su Mu’s tall and strong body was gnawed until only a skeleton was left.

A burst of strange laughter rang out in the ruined temple.

“Hahaha! Hahaha!”

“It’s done, it’s finally done! After absorbing all this blood and flesh, my five elements corpse puppet will be complete!”

The broken mud statuette laughed non-stop.

However, it didn’t notice that the little finger of Su Mu’s skeleton, which had been gnawed clean, was slightly trembling.
