"Corpse transformation?"
Hearing Jiang Chen, Murong Xiangming looked at him in complete surprise.
"How do you know so much about this?"
Jiang Chen replied nonchalantly, "I’ve read about it in some ancient texts. The descriptions there should be accurate."
He didn’t elaborate further.
The Blood Water Array and Corpse Transformation Array he was facing now were different from the ones in his past life’s memories, but the underlying principles were the same.
At that moment, it wasn’t just the two of them who had fallen; all the other surviving Martial Cultivators had also plummeted into this strange place.
Darkness was everywhere.
Although it was dark, everyone present was a Martial Cultivator with night vision, so they could see almost as well as if it were day.
Besides, this wasn’t absolute darkness, so it didn’t impact their vision. In true pitch-black conditions, even powerful Martial Cultivators would have been blind.
That, at least, was an advantage.
"What the hell is going on? How did I fall down here?"
"Brother Qiang, where are you?"
"Damn it, what rotten luck! First the Deadman’s Pit, and now this."
Many people cried out in alarm, some even muttering curses under their breath.
The Martial Cultivators who had been with them before were all near Jiang Chen and Murong Xiangming.
In the darkness, Jiang Chen saw Xiao Jun, the captain of the Black Demon Mercenary Corps, approaching with a group of his men.
When he got closer, he cupped his fists at Jiang Chen. "Jiang Chen, you said before that this was a Chain Array, with a Blood Water Array and a Corpse Transformation Array. Are we in the Corpse Transformation Array now?"
As a Martial King Expert, Xiao Jun was powerful, but he had seen another Martial King Expert fall into the Blood Water Array and dissolve into nothing. He was worried now.
He didn’t dare to be arrogant. Upon spotting Jiang Chen, he hurried over to ask.
He even took the initiative to show goodwill toward Jiang Chen.
He could tell that Jiang Chen seemed to know something about this place.
’Know your enemy and know yourself, and you will never be defeated. At the very least, showing goodwill to Jiang Chen now can only be beneficial.’
Jiang Chen nodded. "That’s right. We should be in the Corpse Transformation Array now."
He could already feel that the cold, sinister aura here was even thicker, laced with a hint of ghostly energy.
It sent a chill down one’s spine.
A chill ran through Xiao Jun. He had a feeling Jiang Chen was right.
He pressed, "Can you tell us about this Corpse Transformation Array?"
He was very curious. Now that they were trapped in this environment, he wanted to understand more.
Especially now that he could sense the imminent danger.
Jiang Chen didn’t hide anything and explained, "The Corpse Transformation Array, as its name implies, causes the Martial Cultivators who died earlier to undergo a corpse transformation."
"They’ll turn into terrifying Zombies."
What?
Hearing Jiang Chen’s words, not just Xiao Jun but everyone else gasped in shock.
A feeling of dread washed over them, making their skin crawl.
Many of them immediately started looking around.
But they didn’t see any Zombies or anything of the sort.
"Heh, you’re not just making this up, are you?"
Someone voiced their disbelief, finding Jiang Chen’s words hard to accept.
Everyone here felt a chill, and their instincts made them want to disbelieve Jiang Chen, thinking he was just spouting nonsense.
Jiang Chen shrugged and said flatly, "Believe it or not."
Then, he said to Murong Xiangming, "Stay on your guard."
As soon as he spoke, a bizarre sound echoed from all around the dark space.
"KRAAA..."
"CREAK... SQUELCH..."
Such a strange sound in this place was enough to make one’s scalp tingle with fear.
The crowd looked toward the source of the sound.
They were instantly stunned.
Before them was a large pit.
The pit was massive, and waves of a thick, metallic, bloody stench wafted out from within.
The foul odor assaulted their senses.
But that wasn’t important.
What was horrifying was that the pools of fresh blood in the pit suddenly began to squirm.
As if they were alive, the pools of blood started to pulse and expand.
The sounds were coming from there.
"KRAA..."
"CREAK... SQUELCH..."
The strange noises continued without stopping.
Everyone stared, their scalps tingling, as the blood before them began to transform.
It was obvious that this blood belonged to the Martial Cultivators who had died earlier.
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, the pools of blood slowly swelled.
"SPLAT..."
With a sudden, strange noise, a hand covered in green hair abruptly shot out from one of the pools of blood.
The hand resembled a beast’s paw, tipped with sharp nails that looked more like claws.
The hand slowly rose from the blood, extending further and further until it became a thick arm over a meter long.
The arm was completely covered in long green hair.
It looked utterly savage and terrifying.
Of course, this was only the beginning.
Soon after, a second green-haired arm began to grow from the pool of blood.
It was as thick as the first, and its hand bore sharp nails a good half-foot long.
At the same time, two long, green-haired legs sprouted from the blood. They were longer than a normal person’s legs, nearly two meters in length.
A head full of fangs also grew out of the blood.
In almost no time, the pool of blood had transformed into a green-haired monster.
"What is that monster?"
"Heavens, how did it crawl out of the blood?"
"Such a powerful aura! It’s comparable to a Martial Master First Heaven expert, maybe even stronger."
Someone noticed the terrifying aura emanating from the monster.
Everyone was stunned.
One, two... more and more monsters were born from the pools of blood.
Each one was just as savage and terrifying, but their auras varied in strength.
Some were at the Martial Master First Heaven, while others were at the Martial Master Peak of Nine Heavens.
In an instant, hundreds of monsters had been born from the blood.
"Corpse transformation... these are Green-haired Zombies."
Xiao Jun, the captain of the Black Demon Mercenary Corps, cried out in alarm.
His face was full of disbelief. He glanced at Jiang Chen, who had said before that the corpse transformation would create Zombies.
Jiang Chen had been right.
The weakest of these Green-haired Zombies had the cultivation of a Martial Artist.
And now, hundreds of Zombies with Martial Master Cultivation had appeared all at once.
What’s more, these Zombies had Copper Skin and Iron Bones, making them extremely difficult to deal with.
’We’re in deep trouble.’
He swallowed hard, feeling as if he were trapped in a nightmare.
This was the first time he had ever witnessed the birth of a Zombie.
A Green-haired Zombie, no less.
"KRAA KRAA KRAA..."
After appearing, the Green-haired Zombies didn’t move.
Instead, they just twisted their bodies in place.
Their bodies made strange creaking and grinding sounds.
The noise sent a cold shiver through many of the onlookers.
"SWOOSH!"
At a certain moment, one of the Zombies abruptly raised its head.
Its eyes were blood-red orbs.
Combined with its mouthful of fangs, the sight was utterly savage and horrifying.
Its eyes fell upon the Martial Cultivators above.
It twitched its nose a few times, and the red glow in its eyes intensified.
At the same time, the other Green-haired Zombies also raised their heads one by one, as if they had smelled the scent of the living, and fixed their gazes on them.
