Chapter 827: Charging In

That night, dark clouds covered the moon, and it was pitch black.

"Roar..."

Suddenly, a low roar broke the stillness of the night.

With that roar, a rustling sound began to rise from the ground, making Ye Yuan and the others feel their scalps tingle.

A terrifying atmosphere spread, and even though these men were bold and skilled, they couldn't help their hearts racing.

"They're coming!" Ye Yuan said in a low voice.

His eyesight was excellent, and he could already see a tide-like army of zombies surging toward them.

Everyone drew in a cold breath; the number of zombies before them was truly horrifying.

As far as the eye could see, there were densely packed zombies, giving an extremely strong sense of oppression.

"This... isn't the number too terrifying? Even if each one spat a mouthful of saliva, they'd drown us!" Sheng Jun said.

"They're not people, they're zombies! Spitting saliva? Aren't you disgusted!" Hua Shujie retorted.

"You two still have the mind to joke! With this many zombies, even if we get trapped, we'll be worn down to death!" Wei Cheng said gravely.

The endless sea of corpses brought a sensory impact that was truly overwhelming.

Even the Formless Realm elders present had solemn expressions, as if facing a great enemy.

These zombies were not strong individually; most were below the sixth rank. But their numbers had reached such a terrifying level that quantity had turned into quality.

Even a Formless Realm martial artist, if trapped, would have only a slim chance of survival!

"Look at the direction they're heading—it should be Shuiyuan City. It seems they really want to expand their territory!" Wu Siyuan said gravely.

Ye Yuan's expression was calm as he said lightly, "Everyone, charge together in the direction the zombies came from. Don't look back! We only have one night, so hurry and don't get bogged down in battle."

With that, Ye Yuan suddenly pushed off the ground and charged toward the zombie tide!

Wang Zan's face changed drastically as he shouted after Ye Yuan, "Young Master, wait for us!"

In Wang Zan's view, Ye Yuan's greatest reliance was the black flood dragon; he himself had some skill, but facing this sea of zombies, how could he possibly hold his own?

Wang Zan moved and gave chase, with Wu Siyuan close behind.

Black Wind also shot after Ye Yuan like a gust of wind.

Wei Cheng sneered, "Reckless fool! A mere Measureless Realm cultivator dares to take the lead!"

Sheng Jun also laughed, "This new young master of Red Cloud seems a bit rash! Ha, let's hope the zombies show mercy and don't hurt him."

"Stop with the sarcasm. Let's go together! If Ye Yuan dies, we won't fare well either! No matter how weak he is, he still has that eight-rank great circle black flood dragon. With him here, this trip should be safe." Hua Shujie said.

The others nodded and quickly dashed toward the zombie tide.

But before they had gone far, they all suddenly halted, their expressions priceless.

In the distance, Ye Yuan was in the lead, swinging his long sword. Countless sword beams shot out instantly, attacking the zombies.

"Sssss..."

Ye Yuan's sword beams mowed down the zombies like grass, instantly reaping a large swath!

For a moment, zombie limbs flew everywhere, a truly震撼 scene.

With a single move, Ye Yuan had torn a huge gap in the zombie tide! He didn't stop but charged straight through the opening.

The Star Moon Sword in Ye Yuan's hand was a great killing weapon. Wherever it passed, it was unstoppable.

Wei Cheng and the others, following behind, were dumbfounded.

In the zombie tide, there were large numbers of fifth-rank zombies, comparable in strength to Measureless Realm martial artists, yet Ye Yuan's attacks completely ignored their rank!

Wang Zan, at least a Measureless Realm martial artist, had almost caught up to Ye Yuan earlier.

But now, his face was full of shock, and for a moment he forgot to attack.

Suddenly, someone patted him on the back. Turning around, he saw Wu Siyuan.

"Surprised? I told you before, our young master is no ordinary man! When he truly grows up, that will be the time for our Red Cloud Holy Land to shine again!" Wu Siyuan said.

From being at odds with Ye Yuan to now full of hope for him, Wu Siyuan's change was remarkable.

Ye Yuan had completely won over the hearts of Red Cloud Holy Land with his strength.

"Heh, don't just stand there. The young master is formidable, but facing such a zombie tide alone, he's still stretched thin. Let's help him!" Wu Siyuan said with a smile.

Wang Zan nodded vigorously, his face excited. "With a young master like this, our Red Cloud Holy Land is sure to prosper!"

Wu Siyuan and Wang Zan then joined the fray. Both were Formless Realm cultivators, far stronger than Ye Yuan, so dealing with low-level zombies was naturally no problem.

What they truly feared was being trapped in the zombie tide and slowly worn down to death.

Killing so many zombies in one breath naturally consumed a lot of primal energy. Over time, they couldn't sustain it.

"Heh, there's some skill after all. I underestimated him! Lucky for us he's only in the Measureless Realm; if he broke through to the Heavenly Opening Realm, we probably wouldn't be able to match him!"

After the shock, Hua Shujie came to his senses, his words tinged with bitterness.

Even at their level, they couldn't handle the zombie tide with the same ease as Ye Yuan.

"Hmph! Just showing off! In my opinion, he's deliberately stealing the spotlight! I don't believe he can use that move many times. When his primal energy runs out, I'll be curious to see what he does!" Wei Cheng said disdainfully.

"Regardless, with that one move, his Supreme True Intent must have reached the third level. This young master of Red Cloud does seem quite formidable! But you're right; with his Measureless Realm cultivation, he probably can't use such a move many times. Let's go, or the gap they opened will be sealed by the zombies." Sheng Jun said.

The three factions then surged forward and soon caught up with Ye Yuan.

With their addition, the team's advance speed increased greatly!

"These zombies themselves aren't much, but their bodies are extremely tough. Everyone be careful not to exhaust your primal energy!"

Watching Ye Yuan cut through them like a hot knife through butter had given them a false impression that the zombies were just numerous and nothing special.

But now that they were engaging the zombies, Wei Cheng realized they had underestimated them.

Zombies were naturally stronger than martial artists of the same rank, and their most fearsome trait was their extremely tough bodies. To completely kill them, they had to expend more primal energy.

One or two made no difference, but with such numbers, the consumption of primal energy became terrifying.

Now they were completely surrounded by the zombies. If they didn't break out quickly, they would be worn down to death by these low-level zombies.

Not to mention Wei Cheng, who was only a Heavenly Opening Realm martial artist; even the Formless Realm elders they brought might not escape.

The number of zombies was too terrifying!
