Master of Strange Dao

Chapter 1257 - 328: Free Charge Laborers, the Wei Clan's Scheme



On the ice field, along the border of the ice field and the mountains, after walking for several hundred miles, Wei Jing searched for a long time and finally found an entrance to a cave sealed by ice.

He took out some liquid emitting cold qi, poured it over the profound ice at the entrance, waited for a moment, gave it a gentle shake, and shattered it, revealing the entrance.

"Below is a lake. If we go from below, it will be a bit safer. However, there will still be extreme cold streams below, just much fewer."

Entering the cave, noticing the obvious marks of artificial excavation here, descending several hundred feet, it suddenly opened up.

Overhead was a very thick layer of ice, but beneath the ice layer was not water, but a gigantic space thousands of feet high, with a quietly flowing lake below.

Wei Jing looked at this scene, somewhat surprised.

"The last time I came, it was still filled with lake water here, swimming in it, one careless move and you could be frozen inside.

Our family already has three ancestors frozen at the bottom of the lake."

"Isn't this situation abnormal?" Yu Ziqing asked.

"Very abnormal, we've never encountered it before, and there's no record of it."

Wei Jing's expression was also somewhat heavy; any abnormal situation here represents danger.

The group's progress wasn't fast, but they soon realized the benefits.

In the lake below, there were still many places where ice pillars would condense from time to time, but between the lake surface and the extremely thick layer of ice overhead, there were no extreme cold streams.

After traveling merely several tens of miles, Wei Jing looked around, it was barren all around.

"Back then, the previous Family Head was frozen here, but now the ice pillars are gone, and the old Family Head is nowhere to be found."

As soon as he finished speaking, a giant frigid qi and yin qi emerged from below, like a calm lake surface that had a giant stone tossed into it, with cold qi and yin qi boiling like water.

A person with a green face and fangs, wearing a black robe, emerged from the lake surface.

By now, mixed with the cold qi and yin qi, a vast amount of corpse qi gushed out.

Wei Jing's expression subtly changed.

"How has the old Family Head transformed into a zombie?"

As he spoke, his hands didn't stop moving.

Wei Jing took out a patinated wooden stake, formed a seal with his hands, and the wooden stake instantly turned into a stream of light, embedding itself into the Big Zombie's chest.

With a crisp clinking sound, the wooden stake penetrated three inches into the bone, suppressing the corpse qi, causing the Big Zombie's figure to pause slightly.

However, in the next moment, cold qi surged, forcefully freezing the wooden stake, shattering it into pieces of powder.

"Wei Lan, retreat first.

After teaching you for so long, haven't you always wanted to demonstrate your ability?

Your test has arrived, let's see if you can get back on your own alive."

Wei Jing spoke quickly, with an indisputable look in his eyes, glancing at Wei Lan.

Wei Lan felt the imposing presence of the Big Zombie, his body trembling slightly.

The vast corpse qi alone was proof that it was absolutely beyond his capability to handle.

Moreover, combined with possession of cold qi and yin qi, in such an environment, his methods were restricted, even someone of the Ninth Tier might not be able to gain an advantage.

He gritted his teeth and turned to leave.

The Wei Clan's trial of whether their younger generation could stand independently was just like this.

It wasn't about testing how deep one could go into the Extremely Cold Forbidden Land, but whether one could leave alive on their own.

After all, only those who returned alive truly demonstrated capability.

Wei Lan turned to leave, and the Big Zombie moved with extreme speed, crossing several miles in an instant, heading straight for Wei Lan's back.

Wei Jing immediately cut open his arm, letting blood seep out, the smell of blood spreading.

Yet the Big Zombie didn't pause, continuing to rush toward Wei Lan's back.

Yu Ziqing said nothing, took a step forward, appearing before the Big Zombie, and his pure physical strength suddenly erupted, his shoulder slamming heavily into the Big Zombie's chest.

With a dull thud, the Big Zombie's figure paused, then flew backward, with Yu Ziqing also flying backward.

At this point, the Big Zombie seemed to have only then scented the blood of its kin and headed straight for Wei Jing.

Yu Ziqing steadied himself, rubbed his shoulder, a layer of frost already forming on his shoulder, with cracks appearing on the bones.

This Big Zombie was at least at the Eighth-Tier Peak, and combined with the powers of this place, using something as robust as vigorous yang fire was impossible; asserting its Ninth Tier strength isn't an exaggeration.

In terms of pure physical strength, even Xia Shuang couldn't surpass this Big Zombie.

However, Wei Jing had mentioned that the previous Wei Clan Family Head had fallen in the Extremely Cold Forbidden Land, and combined with being frozen, this environment wasn't suitable for nurturing zombies.

Even after tens of thousands of years, it still shouldn't result in such a rapid transformation.

Even if a zombie transformed, logically, the time wouldn't be enough for this Big Zombie to become so powerful.

Though Yu Ziqing might not understand other matters, he knew zombies too well.

The Xia Family was adamant that he should convert to the right path, and they'd shared this professional knowledge generously.

To say, perhaps no one understands zombies better than the Xia Family.

They not only researched methods against zombies but also understood how to counter methods against zombies.

In the distance, Wei Jing and Wei Tai, their methods skilled, used their bloodline as bait, luring the Big Zombie step by step into a trap meant for zombies.

Once the Big Array to suppress the zombie was set up, the Big Zombie was pushed inch by inch into a metallic coffin.

Once the coffin lid was closed, the entire array contracted, sealing the coffin completely.

Yu Ziqing flew back and asked.

"Do you often encounter these unintelligent zombies here?"

"They appear occasionally because too few come here, and even fewer die here."
