Chapter 605: Chapter 0398: Ghost Appearance_2 Chapter 605: Chapter 0398: Ghost Appearance_2 Despite turning into a zombie, Chen Wenbo could not forget his desire to obliterate Qi Tian. He shared with the barefoot cultivator in great detail, all the information he had on Qi Tian, without holding anything back.
The barefoot cultivator’s eyes flickered upon hearing Qi Tian’s situation. He clearly rembered how he had initially chased a fleeing Qi Tian, causing him to scurry away in disarray. In such a short ti, Qi Tian’s strength had shown significant progress, and his influence had taken a massive leap forward. The idea of mindlessly pursuing Qi Tian, causing him to run for hundreds or thousands of miles like before, was now out of the question.
To contend with Qi Tian, he would have to lay all his cards on the table, without holding back in any way. He must use all thods at his disposal and could not afford to adopt any half asures. Otherwise, eliminating Qi Tian would be virtually impossible.
To obtain the Teleportation Array Disk from Qi Tian, the barefoot cultivator was ready to risk it all. Ever since he had acquired Qi Tian’s Teleportation Array Disk, he had been studying it devotedly, dreaming of using it to reach Wanjie City. But Qi Tian’s Teleportation Array Disk only had one remaining teleportation opportunity, which he did not dare to gamble with lightly. If he could get his hands on another Teleportation Array Disk from Qi Tian, he might get a chance to return to Wanjie City.
The barefoot cultivator brought out all the resources he had accumulated over the years. He started using secret techniques to gather all the Zombie Demonic Beasts and zombie humans he had tad over the years, and stuffed them all into the Zombie Bag. Chen Wenbo, as his trusted subordinate, naturally made a splendid labor force. The Storage Bag belonging to Chen Wenbo was also refined to a new Zombie Bag using his secret thods. Chen Wenbo watched helplessly as the barefoot cultivator casually disposed of the various cultivation resources originally stored in his Storage Bag.
Chen Wenbo loathed the barefoot cultivator. If not for him, he would not have stooped to the present state, a hybrid of the living and the dead. Even so, his hatred for Qi Tian ran even deeper. If Qi Tian hadn’t been so aggressive, if he wasn’t that powerful, if only they had killed him at the beginning, wouldn’t all this have been avoided? He would never have fallen into the hands of the barefoot cultivator, and would still be at the Guardian National Master Manor, highly revered as the young Mansion Master.
Fueled by this hatred, Chen Wenbo worked diligently, willingly as a laborer. This ti, with the power of the barefoot cultivator, he was determined to kill Qi Tian and settle their grievances.
anwhile, Qi Tian was completely unaware of all this, still in Wangdu County, making final preparations for the assault on the Capital. He insisted on striving for perfection, envisioning a post-siege where he could properly situate the Ninth Prince, ensuring that he ascended the throne securely, simultaneously ensuring the interests of Imperial Master Mansion were preserved, if not increased. Nurous other considerations were also on his plate.
Of course, Qi Tian was very concerned about his personal safety. Under his stringent order, Marquis Ma deployed his army consisting of half a million soldiers to conduct a stringent search throughout Wangdu County. In order to leave no room for error, Marquis Ma, under Qi Tian’s strict instructions, devised a comprehensive signal transmission system. This included an early warning system, a system ensuring efficient ssage delivery when suddenly ambushed, and a system for superiors to receive updates pronto if the news failed to be conveyed.
Conventional thods were out of the question, after all, this was the Cultivation World, not a tech-dinsion. Thus, despite the absence of technology, so cultivation thods were available although they were rather intricate, costly and difficult to widely implent. Nonetheless, they seed feasible for deploynt within the half a million strong army.
This system proved to be effective. Chen Wenbo and the barefoot cultivator had entered Wangdu County together. Their plan was to fly on their swords or ride on Zombie Demonic Beasts directly to Qi Tian’s camp, employing a beheading strategy and capturing Qi Tian directly. However, they soon realized this plan was not feasible. Qi Tian had dispatched a large number of cultivators to patrol the airspace. These cultivators, under Qi Tian’s intimidation, chose to submit to Qi Tian and pledged not to oppose the Ninth Prince becoming the emperor of Great Zhao in the future.
Once they made this pledge, Qi Tian had them patrol the skies above Wangdu County temporarily. When the army advanced towards the Capital in the future, these cultivators would accompany the army to assist the Ninth Prince’s troops in attacking the Capital.
Wangdu County wasn’t large, so with so many cultivators continuously patrolling the sky, it would be impossible to directly approach Qi Tian’s main camp without attracting his attention and vigilance. Thus, Barefoot Cultivator and Chen Wenbo chose to move on the ground.
Yet moving on the ground wasn’t all smooth sailing, either. They soon encountered an army conducting investigations. Chen Wenbo and the Barefoot Cultivator could not produce valid identification and so aroused the suspicion of the inspecting army, which decided to arrest them.
Enraged, Barefoot Cultivator slaughtered the insolent search party that had dared to offend his dignity. This was akin to stirring up a hornet’s nest. Other armies, through their prearranged early warning system, confird the tragedy that had befallen this squad. Nearby troops rushed over to investigate, and at the sa ti, large groups of cultivators began to converge towards that location.
The mont Barefoot Cultivator realized that approaching Qi Tian stealthily had beco impossible, he imdiately switched tactics. He released all the Zombie Demonic Beasts and human zombies from the Zombie Bag. He and Chen Wenbo each controlled a Zombie Demonic Beast and began charging in the direction where Qi Tian was.
Barefoot Cultivator’s army of zombies numbered in the hundreds, and each was imnsely powerful. Several were even in the Gold Core Stage, and the rest were either at the Half-step Golden Core or late Foundation Establishnt stage. There were few at the mid Foundation Establishnt stage, let alone at the beginning level.
This formidable host of zombies, coupled with their fearless and unstinting characteristics, inflicted severe casualties on the attacking army and the cultivators. More importantly, no one was able to stop their advance.
Barefoot Cultivator’s horde of zombies was devastatingly powerful, and the speed of the assault kept accelerating. At first, there were many soldiers and cultivators who didn’t fear death and tried to block them. However, when these fearless soldiers and cultivators also fell, others took heed and dared not rush forward to their deaths. Even if they feared Qi Tian might seek retribution later, they couldn’t just march forward knowing it would an certain death.
With fewer obstacles in their path, the speed of Barefoot Cultivator and his companions naturally increased.
Qi Tian quickly received the news and was extrely shocked. He hastily halted his ongoing matters and headed to the front line with Gao Jini to investigate the situation. At present, the only person Qi Tian could deploy was Gao Jini. Deng Chuanliang had been sent to the Capital for a mission, while Lu Jingfei, Wang Xiuwu, and Xu Jifa were all guarding Prince Zhao, ensuring his safety.
Qi Tian and Gao Jini quickly reached the front line where they saw the zombie army running on the ground, as well as Barefoot Cultivator and Chen Wenbo.
Upon seeing Barefoot Cultivator, Gao Jini involuntarily tensed up. She could sense from him a terrifying aura even stronger than Qi Tian’s. Based on her experience, this Corpse Cultivator was more powerful and at a higher cultivation level than both her and Qi Tian. Even without considering Chen Wenbo and the hundreds of Zombie Demonic Beasts, this would be a highly grim battle.
Compared to Gao Jini, who noticed Barefoot Cultivator first, Qi Tian’s attention was imdiately drawn to Chen Wenbo. Chen Wenbo could no longer be called human, but rather, should be referred as a zombie. The fluctuation of Spirit Force on him and the other zombies had beco virtually indistinguishable. Qi Tian could never have imagined that Chen Wenbo, who once had been full of spirits and forced the Imperial Master Mansion to mobilize Mansions Master Xiao Xiaowu, would end up in such a ghostly state.
