Seeking the Tao in the Mortal World

Chapter 119: When Ming He Lost Her Spell

Ming He had anticipated this situation.

She was talented and well-informed. She had already considered that zombie aura might cause aura to fail. She also knew that she might be defeated, but she still did not flinch.

Because only she could stop this level of zombie here. Neither Han Men nor Qin Yi nor her Master’s Junior could. If she ran away, the land within a hundred miles would turn into a deadland.

Maybe it had nothing to do with her in the first place. As a detached person, she could just leave. It was like watching the war between the South Li Kingdom and the West Savage Kingdom.

But Ming He knew this was different!

The difference between detachment and selfishness was very subtle. It all depended on one’s intention.

The distinction between good and evil came from this.

…………

Since the array was useless, Ming He immediately put away the flags, cast the divine sword to fight with the ancient corpse, and slowly retreated toward the corridor.

The current situation was different from what Liu Su originally thought where she could be defeated by a mortal if she lost her spells.

There was a big difference between spells being banned and losing one’s spiritual force.

If it was just losing spiritual force, it would render the person in a weakened state. He might not even be able to communicate with his enchanted weapon.

However, if it was just a certain area that was being disrupted by the evil aura, although spells and arrays would lose functions, one’s cultivation and mind were unaffected. Some high level enchanted weapons were immune to the disruption as well. Even without the supply of spiritual force, it could still be used with limited effects.

This was what Ming He relied on.

She had a few treasures that were useful in this situation, so it wasn’t difficult to fight against a mindless zombie. Worst case scenario, she could fight while leading the zombie out of the cave house.

But as the divine sword and the ancient zombi continued to fight, Ming He’s face became paler.

After all, the enchanted weapon had a strong connection with her soul. The recoil of the opponent’s attack would be transmitted to her. Although it had been roughly offset by the enchanted weapon, the remaining recoil could still make her blood surge.

This was troublesome.

She was a traditional immortal who focused on training the soul rather than the body. When she cultivated to a high level, she could abandon her physical body and keep her soul alive. The physical body was just a skin that could be created later.

Therefore, her physique was just a result of the immortal cleansing, resulting in physical changes. She could eat nothing and hardly age. In essence, she was basically a different species from humans.

But this change did not make the body much stronger. It might be stronger than mortals, but without the support of spiritual force, it was not necessarily comparable to strong mortals, let alone martial arts who had high endurance.

Although the ancient corpse was also screaming in pain under the might of the divine sword, the divine sword could only exert a small portion of its power. The effect was far less than expected. If this continued, she would probably collapse first.

While retreating, the ancient zombie blocked the divine sword with one hand and punched toward Ming He’s face with the other hand.

Ming He moved her mind. An exquisite little pagoda emerged from her ring, then it enlarged instantly.

The small pagoda spun and emitted a faint Buddha light. The ancient zombie subconsciously covered its gray eyes, and the arms blocking the eyes were eroded.

It was a Buddhist treasure that was very effective in suppressing such evil zombies.

Ming He sighed in her mind. If I could unleash its full power, this shine could exterminate this zombie. But now, it can only stop it for a moment.

The divine sword went for the heart of the ancient zombie without stopping.

The ancient zombie roared and punched out with both fists. Two waves of terrifying gang qi of the fist power respectively collided with the divine sword and the pagoda’s divine light.

“Ka…” The physical fists looked seemingly, but when they collided with the might of the enchanted weapons, the aftermath caused the stone house to crack.

The power of the ancient zombie at the Cloud Riding Stage had exceeded Qin Yi’s imagination. He had no idea how powerful the enchanted weapons were at the center of the confrontation!

Ming He looked paler and paler. There was already an iron taste in her throat.

Judging from the collapse of the stone house, even without direct collision, she was still injured.

While the ancient zombie was being entangled, Ming He held the hem of the taoist robe with both hands and ran away.

I must lead it outside!

Qin Yi hid in the corner at the end of the corridor. Watching Ming He running away while lifting the taoist robe, he suddenly felt very cute.

Without the spiritual force blessing and the speed buff spell, she lost the immortal aura when running. Instead, she had the cute charm of an ordinary girl.

The worst was that her speed was very slow…

This corridor was a passage full of arrays and zombies when they came. After being cleaned up by Ming He’s sword and thunder, the corridor looked short, but that wasn’t true.

It might be a few hundred meters. Qin Yi visually estimated that it might take more than a minute for her to run to the end at this speed…

She was much more faster than ordinary people, but much slower than ordinary martial artists. For this kind of immortal battle, the speed was like a snail.

“Roar!” The ancient zombie finally shook and raised its arms, knocking away the divine sword and the small pagoda. Ming He waved to retrieve the two treasures, then she staggered again and continued running.

It only took a second for the ancient corpse to catch up with her.

“Crack…” The heavy steps caused two huge pits on the ground, and spiderweb-like cracks gradually spread.

Ming He never thought that because she ran too slowly, she couldn’t lead the zombie out of the cave house at all…

Ming He helplessly took off the taoist scarf.

The scarf rotated rapidly. The ancient zombie subconsciously blocked with its hand, and the iron-like fingers were cut off easily.

The ancient zombie felt no pain. Its punch hit the center of the taoist scarf. The taoist scarf flew back to Ming He’s hand and transformed into a shield.

The ancient zombie punched again.

The violent fist caused an explosion in the air.

“Bang!” Ming He spurted a mouthful of blood and flew away like a kite.

The ancient zombie only took half a step back, then it leaped several meters forward and launched a fierce punch. When Ming He looked back, she could already see the dry hand eroded by the divine light coming with a terrifying death aura.

Ming He’s eyes showed a hint of determination. The divine sword went straight to the ancient zombie’s head.

She wanted to exchange a serious injury for an opportunity!

But the expected severe pain never came.

A mace whizzed past and smashed the dry hand. After a loud clang, the mace was pushed back. Qin Yi staggered back two steps, and his hands were shaking a little.

The ancient zombie wasn’t anywhere better than him. Qin Yi was much weaker than it, but mace’s spikes penetrated its arm and the arm was dented.

At the same time, Ming He’s divine sword also pierced into its head.

The divine light flashed!

The ancient zombie, which felt no pain at all, actually let out an agonizing. It stopped for a moment.

Until this moment, Ming He fell heavily to the ground and looked at Qin Yi in shock. She didn’t expect that he hadn’t left.

Qin Yi bent down and turned his back to her, “Come up!”

“What… what are you doing?”

“You’re too slow! I’ll be your car, and you block it with enchanted weapons on my back. Who can you outrun with just those two short legs of yours?”

“…” Ming He turned around and saw that the ancient zombie had already pulled out the sword that stuck on his forehead.

She didn’t hesitate anymore and climbed onto Qin Yi’s back. Qin Yi immediately held her legs and ran away.

Ming He blushed like an apple.

The situation was so critical that she didn’t have time to think too much, but when lying on a man’s back, the feeling was really…

There was no longer any barrier between them. Her was pressed against his back, and his hands were supporting her legs… The friction caused by the bumps with every step was torturing Ming He.

She even wanted to say: Just let me down. It would be better for me to fight with the ancient zombie than lying on your back!

TL: Even if Qin Yi is a martial artist, can he outrun the zombie while carrying Ming He?
