A martial artist's Qi and blood had a suppressive effect on ghosts.
Although Ziyue was still young, the intensity of his Qi and blood indicated that he had reached the level of external forging.
Coupled with the murderous aura of the Pig Slaughtering Knife, ghosts that were not at the level of malicious ghosts would naturally be afraid of this intense aura.
However, Ziyue's Pig Slaughtering Knife did not stop in the slightest.
Eighteen consecutive slashes!
Eighteen consecutive slashes at the level of Minor Accomplishment. The force of three slashes poured into one slash, increasing the speed of the slash by a few notches.
Slash!
Ziyue only felt a slight obstruction before the Pig Slaughtering Knife cut the ghost in half without any hesitation.
After that slash, Ziyue did not even have time to check the result of the slash. With a surge of force, he raised his knife again and slashed down.
At the same time, the Vajra Amulet on his chest was stimulated by his force and activated.
In an instant, a bright golden light fell on Ziyue's body like a layer of golden armor, enveloping him in layers.
In fact, he was far more wary of magical techniques than of Specters.
That was why he took extra precautions.
The gleam of the knife landed directly on the orange-red flame.
There was a splat.
The flame was extinguished so easily that even he was surprised.
"You … you've already external forged?"
Wu Hao exclaimed. He had already investigated Ziyue's identity and knew that he was just an ordinary mountain villager with some martial arts talent.
It was already amazing that he could reach the level of Greater Accomplishment in pole-standing in just three to four months.
External forging?
How many people could achieve that without at least a year of cultivation?
Moreover, he discovered from Ziyue's Qi and blood that his Qi and blood were so thick that it was not as simple as the early stage of external forging.
External forging of flesh and blood?
External forging of muscles and bones?
Ziyue did not answer. With the help of the Light Body Talisman, he quickly approached Wu Hao.
He was about to finish him off with one slash.
Suddenly, his vision blurred and the scene in front of him changed drastically.
The originally ordinary street instantly turned into an eerie and terrifying hell with all kinds of malicious ghosts running amok.
The ghost had reformed its body and attacked at the critical moment.
"Ghost Hits Wall!"
Ziyue's expression did not change. His saber continued to descend.
Puff!
The so-called evil spirits and hell were all slashed in half by the slash.
After all, an illusion was just an illusion. He might have been affected before, but now, not only had his Mental Strength increased to more than two points, but his strength had also soared to the level of external forging of muscles and bones. His vitality was like a beacon.
The illusions of ordinary ghosts were completely useless against him.
Ziyue's slash not only broke through the illusion, but it also continued to slash at Wu Hao's shoulder.
"Ah …"
Wu Hao screamed as his arm flew off.
Those who cultivated the Way of the Immortals were not weak. They had Dharma artifacts and Dharma spells, and their methods were even more bizarre. However, in terms of physical training, they were far inferior to martial artists.
When Ziyue got close to Wu Hao, even though the Pig Slaughtering Knife was not sharp and was even a little blunt, it still easily cut off Wu Hao's arm.
"The fourth slash!"
Ziyue's gaze was cold. He did not care about the ghost that was rapidly approaching him and slashed again.
Eighteen consecutive slashes, one slash after another, the speed was extremely fast.
"Quick … Quick, stop him …"
Wu Hao screamed in horror.
He endured the pain and cast another Dharma spell.
Spirit Light Shield!
Chi!
Energy poured into the Pig Slaughtering Knife, and the Spirit Light Shield shattered.
However, this Dharma spell had won him a chance of survival.
The zombie had finally arrived.
"Roar!"
The zombie roared, and a pair of thick arms immediately pierced toward him.
Ziyue's heart skipped a beat. He had to give up on killing Wu Hao for the time being and slashed with his knife.
Sizzle!
It was like a knife cutting through iron skin. The zombie's physical strength was beyond Ziyue's imagination.
It was obvious that this zombie must have been very powerful when it was alive. It had at least reached the peak of external forging of a martial artist. After being refined into a zombie, its skin, flesh, and bones were still as tough as when it was alive.
In fact, after being refined with Yin Qi, it was even stronger.
This slash of his only managed to split open its skin, but did not manage to injure its muscles and bones at all.
Most importantly, the zombie was an inanimate object. It did not feel pain or itch. The moment it was hit by the knife, it charged forward again.
"The fifth slash, the sixth slash …"
Ziyue slashed with his Pig Slaughtering Knife continuously, but his heart sank.
The zombie's physical strength was beyond his expectations.
Even if the zombie's speed was far inferior to his, it would be difficult for him to cause much damage to the zombie.
Suddenly, Ziyue's body froze. The effect of the Light Body Talisman had disappeared.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the zombie's arm swept out and instantly hit him on the shoulder.
Fortunately, the effect of the Vajra Talisman was still there, and Ziyue's physical body was not weak. Other than some swelling and pain, he did not suffer much damage.
"This can't go on."
Ziyue activated another Light Body Talisman, greatly increasing his speed. He took the time to look at the spiritual energy on his status panel.
The three ghosts he had killed earlier had increased his spiritual energy by more than three hundred points. In addition to the original three hundred points, he now had a total of six hundred and fifty points.
"Consume six hundred points of spiritual energy. Upgrade Eighteen Consecutive Slashes to Greater Mastery!"
"Upgrade!"
Ziyue gritted his teeth. He endured the dizziness that came with upgrading his knife skills and dodged the zombie's attacks.
The soldier-like ghost seemed to have noticed Ziyue's discomfort. It instantly rushed out, its long ghost claws emitting a dense ghostly aura as they slashed through the air.
"Hmph!"
Ziyue grunted. He had long been prepared for this ghost's attack. Two Soul Subduing Talismans immediately shot out.
Two streaks of clear grey light enveloped it in an instant.
"Ah …"
It let out a violent ghostly howl. The power of the Soul Subduing Talisman was no less than the corrosion of sulfuric acid. It was extremely lethal to a Yin-type ghost. It could directly melt it.
In particular, Ziyue's previous slash had caused great damage to it. At this time, it was already in a weakened state.
The two Soul Subduing Talismans transformed into spiritual light that instantly enveloped it, constantly whittling it down.
Very soon, it completely disappeared, its soul scattered and scattered.
The power of the Soul Subduing Talisman seemed to have caused the zombie to feel a trace of fear. Its attacks slowed down for a moment.
It was also at this time that Ziyue's Eighteen Consecutive Slashes was completely upgraded to Greater Mastery.
With a slash, the blade flashed.
This slash was also Eighteen Consecutive Slashes.
However, this slash contained a total of six forces at the same time. It was as if it could cut through the Yangtze River.
The terrifying force condensed into one and once again fell on the zombie's arm.
Puff!
The cut was smooth. The zombie's palm was directly cut off.
Puff!
Another saber descended, and the Zombie's waist was nearly chopped in half. Blood filled with a putrid stench flowed out, giving off a pungent smell.
Puff!
"Die!"
Ziyue glared and the third slash fell!
The zombie's head rolled off its shoulder.
With a bang, it fell to the ground.
