Chapter 1567 Provoking Ying Gou

The two zombies trembled with fear at Hei Ye Xiao's words, but still nodded obediently.

"Come here!" Hei Ye Xiao shouted in a deep voice. The two zombies crawled out of the car. The moment they lowered their heads, Hei Ye Xiao struck with both palms simultaneously, crushing their skulls.

Hei Ye Xiao piled the three corpses together, flicked out a few talismans, and set them ablaze.

Old Liu, puzzled, took a few steps forward and saw the three corpses struggling and writhing in the raging flames, as if trying to reunite.

However, Hei Ye Xiao didn't give them the chance. He continuously cast several incantations into the fire, burning the three corpses to ashes before finally stopping.

Hei Ye Xiao took a deep breath and said, "Ying Gou is here."

"Ying Gou's corpse?" Old Liu asked, "How do you know?"

Hei Ye Xiao said, "Corpses that can still move after being dismembered are a characteristic of Ying Gou. He is an aquatic zombie."

Legend has it that Ying Gou was originally a general under the Yellow Emperor. Unfortunately, he disobeyed the Yellow Emperor's orders in a battle with Chi You, leading to defeat. Enraged, the Yellow Emperor sent Ying Gou to guard the Yellow Springs Nether Sea.

After Hou was killed, a wisp of his soul seemed to intentionally drift towards the Yellow Springs, invading Ying Gou's body and merging with him, turning Ying Gou into a zombie.

Another version says that Han Ba was sent into the ground and fell into the Yellow Springs Nether Sea. The corpse energy on his body polluted the Nether Sea, causing Ying Gou, who was guarding the Nether Sea, to become a zombie.

After becoming the ancestor of zombies, Ying Gou was unwilling for the Yellow Emperor to demote him to a minor deity guarding the Yellow Springs. So, he launched a mad revenge against the Yellow Emperor, constantly wreaking havoc on the human world.

Legend says that Ying Gou's greatest characteristic is that he carries endless corpse energy. It is this corpse energy transformed into divine power that made Ying Gou invincible, even allowing him to escape pursuit in the end.

Hei Ye Xiao took a deep breath and said, "Although Ying Gou is a zombie, he likes to stay in places with water. The corpse energy on his body will naturally merge with the water. People who drink the water will become his subordinates."

"Just now, the corpses in the fire could move because the moisture in their bodies hadn't dried up. Once the moisture in their bodies is burned away, they will be completely dead."

"Ying Gou shouldn't be in this place. Someone has changed his position."

"No!"

Hei Ye Xiao immediately denied his own statement, "Ying Gou is cooperating with someone."

Hei Ye Xiao said, "If the Hall Master doesn't drink the water here, or goes towards the source of the water, he will be fine. But once he goes over there, he will run into Ying Gou."

"The Hall Master is no match for him. What do we do?"

"Wait..." Old Liu said calmly, "Doesn't Ying Gou's corpse have any weaknesses?"

"Yes!" Hei Ye Xiao said, "The zombies spawned by Ying Gou are all ghost artifacts."

"Although Ying Gou has already turned into a zombie, he originally came from the Nether Sea. In the end, the corpse energy on his body is still related to the Nether Sea. Therefore, the zombies he spawns all carry the aura of ghosts."

"The ghost artifacts of the Underworld are not used to deal with the living, but to deal with ghosts. As long as you have a ghost artifact in hand, you can hurt Ying Gou."

Old Liu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief upon hearing this, "That's good. The Soul-Chasing Rope on the Master is a ghost artifact refined by Hei Bai Wu Chang (Black and White Impermanence), so self-preservation shouldn't be a problem."

Hei Ye Xiao said anxiously, "Why aren't you worried at all? As the saying goes, two fists can't beat four hands, and a fierce tiger can't withstand a pack of wolves. How many people did the Hall Master send up there, and how many people are there in Da Meng Xiang (Great Dream Village)?"

"Can they stop the Chang Sheng Shi (Undead Corpses) in Da Meng Xiang?"

Old Liu said unhurriedly, "Isn't there still you?"

"Can you lure Ying Gou out?"

Hei Ye Xiao pondered, "I shouldn't have much trouble dealing with Ying Gou. We were evenly matched last time we fought. But..."

"Ying Gou is very cunning. I'm afraid he won't come out and will deal with the Master first!"

Old Liu laughed, "Then it depends on your skills!"

"Prepare yourself. We'll attack the mountain immediately, at least to relieve some of the pressure on the Master's side!"

Hei Ye Xiao looked at the zombies behind him, "I have no problem attacking the mountain, but my guards are no match for Ying Gou's Chang Sheng Shi."

"Unless they have ghost artifacts, right?" Old Liu laughed, "That's easy. Just give me some time."

Old Liu quickly contacted Shang Xing Yan. It is said that Shang Xing Yan was so frightened when he heard Old Liu calling him that he almost dropped the teacup in his hand. He didn't calm down until he understood that he wanted to mobilize a batch of ghost artifacts.

That is, just as I was leaving from Lu Peng's place, Shang Xing Yan had already mobilized hundreds of sets of ghost soldier heavy armor and more than a hundred broadaxes.

The zombies equipped with heavy armor and broadaxes not only looked eerie and murderous, but also had a fear that was hard to ignore.

Hei Ye Xiao took the lead towards the stone bridge, and the corpse energy on his body burst out, like wolf smoke soaring into the sky. In just a short moment, the smoke column formed by the corpse energy on Hei Ye Xiao's body reached the same height as the Deng Shen Tai (Ascension Platform).

Hei Ye Xiao spoke unhurriedly, "Ying Gou, an old friend has come to visit. Aren't you coming down to greet me?"
