It was not a small city. When Wei Huo returned there, he saw many buildings protected by the golden light. There were people everywhere on the commercial streets. Even after 500 years, most of the city was still in its original state. However, the biggest weakness of the city was that it was not a safe zone.

The deserted streets were occupied by weeds. The golden buildings were surrounded by trees and dangerous creatures. It was difficult for humans to survive in such an environment, but no matter how difficult it was, the city should not be as dead as it looked now.

There were no living animals in this area, only plants.

Wei Huo did not need to look. His Nirvana Domain could sense any kind of life force.

He understood everything when he landed outside his neighborhood.

A zombie dog was loitering near the gate of the neighborhood. The zombie dog was not small, but it had lost its life. Its soul had disappeared, and it could only control its body instinctively.

The commotion caused by Wei Huo’s fall startled it. It rushed toward Wei Huo but stopped when it was about three to four meters away from him.

It shook its head and walked past Wei Huo.

Wei Huo stroked his chin. Am I being ignored? Or am I being treated as one of them?

Wei Huo was not surprised that a zombie dog had appeared. Hundreds of years ago, a creature named ‘zombie deer’ had evolved in nature. Zombie deer attacked all living creatures. Sometimes, they would even use their deer horns against trees for half a day.

The creatures that were attacked and injured by them would have a chance of being infected by the ‘zombie virus’. They would then attack living creatures like the zombie deer. Wei Huo would usually refer to these creatures as zombie beasts.

The zombie deer was as terrifying as the self-exploding sheep. They were not strong, but if one was injured or eaten by them, there was a chance that one could be infected with the virus.

Wei Huo had encountered such a situation hundreds of years ago. The creatures in a large area had been infected by the virus and turned into zombie beasts. Wei Huo had spent some time killing them when they had provoked him.

Wei Huo glanced at the zombie beast. It was a level-one zombie beast, and its strength was similar to a normal beast’s. However, zombie beasts could not feel pain, and one could not escape from them. They were stronger than normal creatures.

The zombie beast did not provoke Wei Huo. This was probably because Wei Huo was emitting an aura of nirvanic extermination. Wei Huo ignored it, as he knew that the zombie beast would not exist for long.

As time passed, the bodies of zombie beasts would slowly rot, and their muscles would shrink and rot. Soon, they would not be able to walk. They would quickly fall to the ground and wait for microorganisms to decompose them. When there was only a skeleton left, the virus would also die.

However, there was a prerequisite: They could not eat. Their digestive system was still useful. As long as they ate fresh flesh, their decay speed would slow down.

If someone was powerful and bored, they could choose to raise a zombie beast. If they could tame it, it could help them kill monsters.

Wei Huo walked into the neighborhood and saw a few zombie beasts. They were howling, but a level-two zombie beast ran over and fled in another direction.
