Chapter 1 Omen

Buzz~

Deep within his mind's eye, the Da Dao Ji Diagram shimmered with a watery brilliance.

In an instant, words flowed out:

[Zombie King, Zhu Shang]

[Born in the mortal realm of Huangtian, beside a secluded, ghostly land. Formed from the grievances and ill luck of heaven and earth, feeding on greed, anger, delusion, and hatred. Every 129,600 years, he will be reborn from the grievances and ill luck of all living beings. He is endless and nearly an immortal, long-lived being!]

[Original trajectory one: Descended to Huangtian at 67,200 years. At the time of his descent, resentful aura soared to the heavens, and all living beings within ten thousand miles died and transformed into zombies. No grass grew for thirty thousand years wherever he passed. He was born with great supernatural powers and eventually became a generation of Zombie King, known as one of the supreme demon lords of the mortal world alongside the Ten Fiends of Huangtian...]

[Later, due to the overlapping of universes, he fell from the Huangtian Realm into a spirit-depleted wasteland. Because the spirit-depleted land had neither spiritual energy nor resentful yin energy, he slept in the snow mountains for many years until Tong Zhengyang stole his essence blood and he finally revived.]

[Later, he swallowed Tong Zhengyang, who had advanced to the Heavenly Human Realm, and barely managed to leave the snow mountain.

On that day, thunderclouds rolled, and thousands of lightning bolts struck down, and Xuanxing was utterly destroyed...]

Zombie King?!

A nearly immortal, long-lived being?!

Even with An Qisheng's current state of mind, seeing these words, his heart couldn't help but ripple with shock.

In the Jiu Fu Realm, he had already reached the highest level in ancient and modern times. The Gate of Heaven could be opened at any time, and his essence, Qi, and spirit were flawless. If not for forging the King's Authority Sword, he could even try to condense the Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown again above the Five Qi Gathering at the Origin!

But even then, his Yin spirit had transformed into a Yang spirit, and his physical body was indestructible, but he would only exist for a thousand years.

Even a perfect Yang spirit would dissipate, and an indestructible physical body would decay.

In the Jiu Fu Realm, there was no true path to longevity.

And this Zombie King who suddenly appeared on Xuanxing was actually a true long-lived being, with a lifespan of up to 129,600 years!

Moreover, even if his lifespan reached its limit, he could be reborn again in resentment and gloom.

But what caught his attention the most was the last sentence:

"Universe overlapping..."

[Universe overlapping: Due to the operation of the universe, two large universes occasionally overlap. At this time, a universe exchange will occur...]

The Da Dao Ji Diagram moved according to his thoughts, giving an explanation.

"First Tong Zhengyang, then the Zombie King..."

An Qisheng's mind flickered, and a bad thought vaguely formed.

At this time, he couldn't understand the laws of the universe's operation, let alone the principle of universe exchange. However, the four words "universe overlapping" were simple and clear.

This meant that the spirit-depleted universe he was in seemed to have other universes nearby, and they were very close.

Or rather, getting closer and closer!

Because as far as he knew, the previous transmigrator before Tong Zhengyang was Wang Honglin three hundred years ago. Now, only two short years after Tong Zhengyang, a Zombie King had come...

What about the future?

If the universe overlapped more frequently, what a terrifying scene would it be?

He even thought deeper.

The universe was vast, and Xuanxing couldn't even be considered dust. Universe exchange might not only exist on Xuanxing...

The universe might not be safe either.

He couldn't imagine how many transmigrators had come, or were coming, or would come to this universe, this Xuanxing. It was truly a sieve.

"This Zombie King..."

Sighing in his heart, An Qisheng slowly opened his eyes, and the car just happened to slowly stop in the parking space.

He looked out the car window.

The highway was crowded with traffic, and people were coming and going in the shops along the road. Old people, children, young couples, middle-aged couples, office workers rushing to and fro, and girls dancing with exposed navels and thighs...

They had no idea that somewhere in the world, a great demon capable of destroying the world had already descended.

"Ah, I might be getting married..."

Chen Guangke put down his phone, both happy and a little troubled:

"Lily, is pregnant with my child..."

"That's a good thing."

An Qisheng retracted his gaze and congratulated him with a slight smile.

He had been mature since he was a child and couldn't play with his peers at all. His true childhood friend was only this Chen Guangke.

Although he was neither good at literature nor martial arts, and had no business acumen, many people were surprised that he would be friends with him.

"My dad said the same thing..."

Chen Guangke was used to An Qisheng's indifference and didn't mind. He lowered the car window, lit a cigarette, and took a deep puff: "Lao An, to be honest, I'm a little scared..."

"Cough, cough!"

After taking a puff, he, who had never smoked before, immediately coughed for a while, put out the cigarette and held it in his hand.

He looked troubled with happiness:

"I mean, I'm still a kid, how could I, how could I be a dad?"

"I can't help you with that."

An Qisheng put away the locust wood token he was about to take out, opened the car door and walked down:

"Go back and spend time with your girlfriend, and by the way, give my regards to Uncle Chen..."

Locust wood token.

It was made by him using Tong Zhengyang's shattered Yin spirit. Because Xuanxing had no soil for the existence of divine thoughts at all, he could only use locust wood as a medium.

He originally wanted Chen Guangke to be the first person to receive the invitation.

But after learning the news of the Zombie King, Zhu Shang, he temporarily put aside the idea.

There was no need to break his childhood friend's peaceful life.

He vaguely understood in his heart that perhaps, there would be no such peaceful life in the future...

........

In the following days, An Qisheng spent a few days with his parents, conditioning their bodies, and cooking some medicinal meals. After their complexions obviously improved, he drove back to the suburbs.

At the same time, the many medicinal materials he had ordered online had also arrived.

Xuanxing didn't have the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, but it didn't mean that the resources were inferior to the Jiu Fu Realm. On the contrary, wild medicinal materials were not much better than artificially cultivated ones. On Xuanxing, medicinal material cultivation had reached an extremely high level in three hundred years.

Except, there was no spiritual energy.

But for An Qisheng at this time, just swallowing these medicinal materials would be enough to achieve the strongest Bigu Pill, which the Da Xuan military only provided for Grandmasters who had seen the gods.

Even more than that.

Huff!

Sip!

In the empty courtyard, An Qisheng sat cross-legged, bathed in the sunlight, and began his first practice since returning to Xuanxing.

His breathing was slow and long, and the interval between each breath was extremely long. Even if the person with the largest lung capacity in the world learned it, they would suffocate immediately.

And with his breathing, his muscles, bones, skin, and even his hair were wriggling slightly, as if they were also breathing.

And inside, in places that people couldn't see.

His internal organs, many organs, and even the smallest cells were trembling and wriggling with his breathing, as if every pore, every cell, was interacting with the outside world.

If it was in the Jiu Fu Realm, one breath would be comparable to an ordinary person's year of hard practice.

Unfortunately, at this moment, he had no internal force, and there was no spiritual energy in the world.

But even without any spiritual energy, as his mind sank, his physique was also undergoing fine-tuning.

This was the skill of Embracing the Core.

His mental cultivation surpassed seeing the gods. However, the growth of his physique would not happen overnight. The process of nourishing the holy fetus for a hundred days of Embracing the Core was essential.

However, what he lacked was only this process.

Once his physical strength caught up, Gangjin and Seeing the Gods would be achieved in one fell swoop.

Even more, his powerful mind could already capture the 'gods' in the human body.

In a sense, he had formed the core, but he had already seen the gods.

"Spiritual energy of heaven and earth, spiritual energy of heaven and earth..."

His mind was powerful. While Embracing the Core, he even used it for two purposes, constantly thinking.

In the Jiu Fu Realm for sixty years, the question he thought about the most was how to break the path forward on Xuanxing, and what was the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and was it irreplaceable.

For the people of the Jiu Fu Realm, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was the pure aura that existed between heaven and earth. After the internal force and physique reached a certain level, they could attract the spiritual energy.

It seemed that few people had ever explored its essence.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth was a higher-level energy, a particle that permeated the heaven and earth of the Jiu Fu Realm, as ubiquitous as a magnetic field.

This was not irreplaceable.

Because he knew very well, or rather, everyone on Xuanxing knew, that all energies could be converted into each other.

No spiritual energy.

Then don't use it!

Xuanxing had the sun, moon, and stars, mountains and rivers, thunder and rain. Without the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, just change to another one.

And he chose, the magnetic field.

The operation of human internal organs, brain, and muscles would generate bioelectricity, and then generate a biomagnetic field.

It was just that the magnetic field of ordinary people was extremely weak, weak to the point of being negligible.

And his mind was powerful, able to perfectly control every subtle part of his body, and could generate a large amount of bioelectricity at any time. The resulting magnetic field was far from what ordinary people could compare.

In fact, the unity of heaven and man, to some extent, was to resonate with the magnetic field of heaven and earth, so as to understand the many information contained in the heaven and earth.

The reason why he could enter other people's dreams, to some extent, stemmed from this.

In the sixty years of the Jiu Fu Realm, he deduced countless possibilities, and what he sorted out was not just the martial arts system of the Jiu Fu Realm.

But with his mind as the foundation, even in a world without spiritual energy, he could cultivate, a true foundation!

Use the biomagnetic field to connect the mountains and rivers, all the magnetic fields between heaven and earth, to strengthen his own physique, until he refined a true seed in his own body,

A true 'Qi'.

This step, until the true seed of 'Qi' was refined, could be called the Qi Refining Realm.

Once this realm was achieved, all the energies of heaven and earth would be for my use, and flying into the sky and escaping from the earth would be omnipotent.

Comparing this, in the Jiu Fu Realm, it was the Heavenly Human!

Sixty years, invincible in one world, with the two-world system as the foundation, he summarized the first step of cultivation.

If he could cultivate it, even if he went to any universe, whether there was spiritual energy, demonic energy, or no spiritual energy like Xuanxing, he would not be afraid!

Of course, what he had to face first.

Was the consumption of his powerful divine will, which had reached the limit of the human world.

With his current powerful divine will, even if he swallowed Bigu Pills every day, he could only last for at most a month before his body would wither, his flesh would die, and then, his divine will would dissipate in the heaven and earth without any support.

This was the terror of spirit depletion.

Any supernatural power that relied on spiritual energy would disappear in this world, and any physique and primordial spirit cultivated with spiritual energy would be destroyed in this world!

Whether it was a god or an immortal!
