C43 (1/2)

After pondering for a while, Zhou Qing's heart skipped a beat, and the remaining three corpse ghosts appeared next to him.

This ghost fog was the nightmare of countless cultivators, but for Zhou Qing, who could absorb the aura of death, it was extremely easy to pass through.

Corpse Spirit had yet to awaken, as long as he used the death aura to cover his entire body, he would be recognized as the same kind and would be immune to attacks.

Therefore, it wasn't too hard for him to capture Corpse Spirits.

A black light flashed from the Fate Stone spirit bone. Zhou Qing absorbed some of the death aura, and a moment later, his body was covered by the black light. Under the guidance of the three corpse ghosts, he entered the ghost fog.

As soon as he entered, the temperature dropped and a cold wind blew.

A low roar rang out in his ears. Zhou Qing walked closer to investigate, but frowned slightly.

Outside of the ghost fog, there were Spirit Opening Realm Corpse Ghosts. If one wanted to capture a Soul Condensation Realm corpse ghost, they could only go deeper.

After making some mental plans, Zhou Qing continued to walk forward. At the same time, his left hand flew out, forming a complicated blood-colored talisman.

This talisman was called the Corpse Controlling Curse. As long as it was inserted into the corpse ghost's body, it could establish a connection with the corpse ghost and gain control of it.

This ghost fog was much larger than the one he had entered with Old Demon Feng and the others. After Zhou Qing had gone deeper into the fog for a while, the ghost fog grew thicker and the area around him had shrunk to less than 10 feet.

At this point, even with the aura of death enveloping his body, Zhou Qing did not dare to be careless. His heartstrings gradually tightened.

After five more steps, Zhou Qing's expression changed.

The corpse ghost controlled by the corpse talisman had a connection with his mind and was able to share his vision.

At this moment, he could clearly see that there was a shriveled mid stage Soul Condensation Corpse not far away from the Corpse Ghost on the left!

Zhou Qing's expression was calm as he silently walked forward. Soon, he was only 10 feet away from the mid stage Soul Formation corpse.

Boom!

Suddenly, Zhou Qing let out a low shout and the Spiritual Energy within his body exploded out. He sent a palm strike towards the zombie.

Although Corpse Ghost wasn't intelligent, it was very sensitive to spirit energy fluctuations.

The moment Zhou Qing made his move, the mid Awakened Soul Realm corpse ghost sensed it and roared, charging towards Zhou Qing without fear of death!

At the same time, low roars rose and fell from the surrounding ghost fog. Countless figures could be vaguely seen as they rapidly approached.

Bang.

The Ethereal Wind Steps instantly erupted. Zhou Qing's figure flashed as he nimbly dodged the Corpse Ghost's bite. At the same time, his palm landed on the Corpse Ghost's shoulder.

The corpse control talisman instantly entered the zombie ghost's body. The zombie ghost wanted to continue flying, but it suddenly froze, like it was motionless.

At the same time, dozens of zombies tore apart the ghost fog and rushed forward!

With a thought from Zhou Qing, the moment the fluctuation of spiritual energy was withdrawn, it absorbed the death aura. After the tens of zombies lost their target, they stopped moving and turned around to leave.

Letting out a breath, Zhou Qing controlled the Soul Condensation zombie to move forward again. As for the three peak Spirit Opening zombies, they were cut off and thrown to the ground.

With the help of the Death Qi, as well as the Corpse Controlling Talisman, Zhou Qing was like a fish in water in the fog, quickly reaching the heart of the area.

During this process, the number of mid stage Soul Condensation Corpse Ghosts he controlled had also increased to ten.

However, after walking forward for a while, Zhou Qing's brow furrowed slightly.

In the ghost fog region, the closer one was to the core zone, the more Corpse Ghosts there were. This was a common occurrence.

But for some reason, as he moved forward, he felt the number of Corpse Ghosts around him becoming fewer and fewer. In the end, besides the ten that he controlled, he could not even see a single one.

This situation was too strange!

Zhou Qing did not dare to be careless. He mustered all his energy and continued forward.

This time, he didn't walk too far before the ghost fog in front of his eyes suddenly dissipated and his vision widened.

Zhou Qing looked over with rapt attention, and when he saw the scene in front of him clearly, his pupils violently contracted.

In front of him was a wide, rocky area surrounded by a thick ghost fog.

In the center of the open space, a ghost corpse sat cross-legged. Its figure was extremely thin and small, like that of a child. However, its skin was jet-black with a hint of scarlet.

In front of this corpse ghost, between the two pieces of rubble, there was actually a small flower that swayed in the wind. Its entire body was light red, and it was extremely eye-catching.

”That is …” The Divine Awakening Flower?! ”

Zhou Qing muttered in his heart. A moment later, he finally recognized the light red flower. A fiery heat immediately surged through his eyes.

The Divine Awakening Flower had the ability to refine spirit sense and clear the mind. Using it to awaken the mind would increase the strength of one's spirit sense and increase the area that it covered.

Spiritual consciousness could only be created after the seven spirits were completely formed. Unlike Spiritual Energy, it could not be used to increase the area one could cover through cultivation. Normally, peak Condensing Reality Realm cultivators could cover an area of 50 meters with their Spiritual Awareness.

However, Zhou Qing had cultivated the Ten Thousand Spirit Codex and condensed a soul pill. Thus, his Spiritual Awareness was born earlier, and his area reached a terrifying three hundred meters.

If he could consume this Divine Awakening Flower, the area covered by his Spiritual Sense would increase exponentially, to the extent that it could be compared to a Spirit Realm Mage at the early stage of the Spirit Realm!

But...

Zhou Qing looked at the small zombie with a serious expression. It should only be at the late stage of Soul Formation, but for some reason, he felt a sense of danger.

At the same time, the fire in Zhou Qing's eyes burned hotter.
