Chapter 741 (1/2)

Chapter 741: Chapter 328: Self-Destruct, Witnessing Self-Destruction Again_2 Chapter 741: Chapter 328: Self-Destruct, Witnessing Self-Destruction Again_2 Cultivators self-destruct only when their Soul Spirits are utterly annihilated.

Unless trapped in a desperate situation, wishing to perish along with their opponent, would they choose such an extreme method as self-destruction.

However, this place is the Soul Tomb, which, although fraught with peril, also represents a glimmer of hope for escape.

Even when confronted by danger, one shouldn’t directly resort to self-destruction, should they?

Subsequently,

Lin Jing voiced his thoughts.

After hearing this, the Yan Family Ancestor pondered for a moment before saying,

“I suspect there’s some unknown danger here that compels one to self-destruct.”

“We also need to be careful.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Jing nodded slightly.

Changyun Yuanlei was even more cautious, closely following Lin Jing and continuously looking around…

…

Next,

The three continued advancing through the alley.

Perhaps because the main street was too noisy, attracting all the zombies, Lin Jing and his companions had a very smooth journey, not encountering even a single zombie.

In this manner, the trio passed through the alley, finally covering one-third of the distance.

While Lin Jing moved ceaselessly forward, the remaining two on the main street were also retreating inward as they fought.

It could be said that they almost kept pace with Lin Jing’s group, also reaching one-third of the journey.

However, these two seemed to have expended a lot of Spiritual Power, and the disturbances from the main street were growing fainter.

Furthermore,

The two Demon Cultivators who had entered first also hadn’t appeared, presumably like Lin Jing’s group, they were hiding their tracks and stealthily moving forward.

Lin Jing and his companions passed through the alley and quickly arrived at another side street.

However, upon reaching this place, Lin Jing and his party were not so fortunate.

Upon arriving at this side street, Lin Jing and his team encountered a wandering zombie.

Upon seeing the zombie, it seemed somewhat sluggish, not reacting at all.

At this moment, the Yan Family Ancestor stopped the other two and gestured for them to be silent.

Following that,

The Yan Family Ancestor slowly moved towards the zombie.

His movements were light, and he did not cast any spells; he just slowly approached the zombie.

As the Yan Family Ancestor continually got closer until they were about three meters apart, the zombie finally reacted, lunging at the Yan Family Ancestor.

Seeing this, the Yan Family Ancestor flicked his finger, gathering a green light at his fingertip and shooting it directly at the zombie’s head.

This green light was subtle, with barely any fluctuation even as it shot out.

As the green light shot out and entered the zombie’s head,

followed by a soft “pop,” the zombie’s head exploded like a punctured balloon.

Yet, the explosion was not loud.

The headless zombie’s body fell to the ground with a “thud.”

From the zombie’s attack to its body falling, everything was completed in the blink of an eye.

The noise created during this process was also minimal.

After the zombie fell to the ground, Lin Jing immediately spread out his Divine Sense, scanning the surroundings.

There were not many zombies on this street.

Although not many, there were still dozens within the range of Lin Jing’s Divine Sense.

The closest one was only about ten meters away from Lin Jing’s group.

Yet, the recent events had not attracted other zombies.

Zombies are highly sensitive to fluctuations in Spiritual Power.

Clearly, the Yan Family Ancestor had also noticed this, hence his method of probing.

Lin Jing became aware of this fact not long ago.

Because the three cultivators ahead of them had encountered an attack by zombies upon entering, Lin Jing’s group had been extremely fortunate.

Even in the Soul Tomb, where zombies should have been everywhere, they hadn’t encountered even a single one.

This was truly inconceivable.

Until then, Lin Jing had been contemplating this matter.

Meanwhile, the fluctuations in Spiritual Power coming intermittently from the main street helped Lin Jing to realize that it was these fluctuations that had drawn all the zombies away.

Toward the source of the Spiritual Power fluctuations they moved.

Also because of this, the fluctuations in Spiritual Power on the main street had never ceased since they entered.

In their attempts to slay the zombies, they inevitably had to use Spiritual Power, and using Spiritual Power would create fluctuations, attracting more zombies.

As zombies continuously surged toward them, they were compelled to use Spiritual Power to slay these zombies…

In this way, they were trapped in a vicious cycle…
