Strongest War Emperor

"Yin Zhen, let her go!" Yin Lianxing shrieked.

This seemingly delicate woman was now glaring with wide, furious eyes, looking as if she was about to charge out and fight Yin Zhen to the death at any moment.

The men of the Yin Family all felt a pang of shame.

Yin Zhen’s lecherous gaze swept over Yin Lianxing. He licked his lips and said, "Don’t be in such a hurry. I’ll play with Yin Shan first, then it’ll be your turn."

At that moment, Yin Zhen pulled the semi-conscious Yin Shan into his arms, and a hand that had clearly been shattered reached for her chest.

The lust in his blood-red eyes was completely undisguised!

SWOOSH!

In a flash, the light of a blade suddenly flared in the darkness.

It slashed diagonally, from bottom to top!

SCHLICK!

Yin Zhen’s right hand, which was reaching for Yin Shan’s chest, was severed at the sound and sent flying high into the air.

The next moment, everyone’s vision blurred, and Shen Lang, who had been in front of the group, suddenly vanished!

After a moment of stunned confusion, they saw that Shen Lang had already appeared before Yin Zhen!

Yin Zhen was fast, but Shen Lang’s speed was on another level entirely!

"What was that you just said you wanted to do? I didn’t hear you. Say it again," Shen Lang said indifferently.

"If you dare touch me, I’ll kill..."

Yin Zhen was scared out of his wits. His left hand shot out, clawing toward the top of Yin Shan’s head.

He didn’t get to finish his threat. The blade flashed again, and a tyrannical, arcing light bloomed. His left hand went flying into the air as well!

Shen Lang’s left hand shot out like lightning. He grabbed Yin Shan, tossed her backward, and a gentle force enveloped her, sending her floating toward the Yin Family group.

SCREEECH!

The surrounding Zombies finally stirred, pouncing toward Yin Shan in mid-air like starving wolves that had spotted their prey!

The Yin Family members roared and prepared to fight back with all their might!

CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!

Just then, the sound of metal chains clashing rang out, and a silver-white Locking Chain suddenly shot out from the crowd of Yin Family members.

Like a python, it instantly wrapped around Yin Shan and yanked her back!

Everyone stared, and when they got a clear look, they jumped in shock... A strange woman had appeared in their midst at some unknown point!

The entire group had only just now noticed her!

At that moment, more than ten Zombies were closing in, and countless Ghosts were shrieking as they descended from the sky like a black cloud.

And yet, another stranger—a woman—had appeared in the crowd...

The group froze for a moment, caught in a dilemma!

"Hey, you’re Nalan Ziyun? Nalan Ziyun from Jialan Academy!"

Fortunately, someone in the crowd finally recognized the strange woman.

Knowing she wasn’t an enemy, everyone breathed a secret sigh of relief.

"Nalan Ziyun, you’re my goddess! Can I have your autograph?" the same person yelled out again.

"..." Everyone was speechless. Then, in perfect unison, they turned to find the person who had spoken.

Fists and feet flew. Before the buffoon could even try to defend himself, he was knocked unconscious.

Nalan Ziyun let out a wild laugh. "My Locking Chain is thirsting for action! These Zombies are all mine..."

SHING! SHING! SHING!

Flashes of blade light flickered, and before the lunging Zombies could even get close, Shen Lang had cut them all in two!

Shen Lang grabbed Yin Zhen by the neck with one hand and lifted him up. He turned back and asked quizzically, "Looking at a bunch of Zombies and saying you’re ’thirsting’? Since when did you have such... peculiar tastes?"

Nalan Ziyun had been all fired up, ready to unleash her skills in a grand battle. She had just let out a wild laugh when all the Zombies were already dead...

Her smile froze on her face. Her almond-shaped eyes widened as she roared, "Get the hell away from me! Gallop away and don’t stop! I was talking about killing the Zombies..."

"But I hadn’t even made a move yet! Why did you kill them all?"

"Oh, killing Zombies? There’ll be plenty of chances. We can talk about it later." Shen Lang turned back to stare at the despairing Yin Zhen.

The spirited, arrogant look on Yin Zhen’s face had vanished without a trace, replaced by an irrepressible fear.

His body trembled uncontrollably...

Only now did he realize that his opponent’s power was something he could never hope to contend with.

Severing both his hands in an instant, that peerless Blade Intent, that calm and composed demeanor—it all showed the power of an opponent who had the situation firmly under control.

Simply by gripping his neck, Shen Lang had effortlessly sealed his power, leaving him unable to move...

That was one thing, but those Zombies... although they weren’t very bright, they were all incredibly formidable. In terms of strength, they were far superior to him, an Evil Spirit.

Yet they were all slaughtered as easily as chopping melons and vegetables!

They didn’t even have a chance to resist!

One had to understand that although these Zombies were only Fourth Level Zombies by Human Race standards, equivalent to the Peak of Spirit Martial Realm...

...their predecessors were all from the Northern Wilderness Barbarian Clan, whose physical bodies were much stronger than those of many other races.

Furthermore, they had been steeped in the Vengeful Qi deep within this tomb for a full ten thousand years!

Ordinary Xuanwu Realm Powerhouses of the Human Race wouldn’t necessarily be able to handle them.

But before this man, they were like scarecrows...

...cut down one by one with a single slash, and even the fierce souls within couldn’t escape!

The Hidden Moon Tomb had been open for so long, and as an Evil Spirit within it, he had never seen a human Martial Artist this powerful!

At this moment, Shen Lang glanced indifferently at Yin Zhen and said, "Speak. Is the entire Hidden Moon Tomb like this, or is this just an isolated case?"

"Heh heh... you... you may be powerful, but there’s no way you can escape the Hidden Moon Tomb! The entire tomb is under our control! You... you will all die!"

The voice didn’t come from "Yin Zhen’s" throat; instead, the sinister words echoed from his abdomen.

Shen Lang was silent for a moment, then sighed. "Yin Zhen, I had no choice but to sever your hands to save someone. Now, I will avenge you. You can rest in peace."

"What are you planning to do? Don’t you dare do anything reckless!" the Evil Spirit inside Yin Zhen shrieked. "If you dare to kill me, my master will make you wish for death but be unable to find it, cursed to never be reincarnated!"

Shen Lang raised a hand, sheathing his Immortal Celestial Saber. Before everyone’s eyes, he sneered, "Never be reincarnated, you say?"

He slapped his right palm onto "Yin Zhen’s" chest. A powerful suction force instantly ripped the Evil Spirit out from within Yin Zhen’s body!

Using the Star Absorption Technique to directly devour the soul of an ordinary Martial Artist or Demon Beast is extremely difficult.

Whether it’s a Demon Beast or a Martial Artist, their soul is deeply bound to their physical body. While they are alive, it is nearly impossible for the soul to leave the body.

However, this Evil Spirit, which had killed Yin Zhen and was now temporarily possessing him, was not Yin Zhen’s soul.

Shen Lang extracted this Evil Spirit with ease.

"Just because you won’t talk doesn’t mean I can’t find out. I dabble in a bit of Soul Extraction and Refining myself from time to time."

As Shen Lang spoke, he held the mass of black fog in his palm and sneered.

The members of the Yin Family behind him watched this unfold, their minds reeling and their eyes filled with disbelief.

Being able to slaughter a group of Zombies so easily was terrifying enough.

But to be able to instantly rip such a powerful possessing Evil Spirit from Yin Zhen’s body... just how strong was he?

Many in their group had wanted to kill him earlier. The thought that he was this powerful sent a cold sweat down their backs...

"Master, save me!"

The Evil Spirit captured by Shen Lang shrieked madly, the sound so piercing that the Yin Family members had to cover their ears in pain.

At that exact moment, from the darkness that Shen Lang had noticed earlier, a massive black figure lunged out like a bolt of lightning!

A heart-rending scream echoed from the distance, instantly knocking the Yin Family disciples to the ground, their faces pale and blood trickling from their lips!

"A Fifth Level Hair Zombie..."

The few Yin Family members with the highest Cultivation saw the approaching creature clearly, and their faces instantly turned ashen.

The massive lungeing Zombie had deep green pupils. It was an Infinite Hair Zombie, the strongest type of Zombie below a Corpse King!

Even a King Martial Realm powerhouse would have to retreat from such a powerful Zombie!

’Even if Uncle Lan Sen is strong, he can’t possibly have the Cultivation of the King Martial Realm, can he...?’

A bone-chilling despair instantly rose in everyone’s hearts.

The Yin Family was an Imperial Capital Noble Family from the Purple Chu Country. Many of the young men here were just spoiled sons of the rich, essentially on a sightseeing trip.

Seeing the legendary Infinite Hair Zombie appear before them, they probably wouldn’t have had the strength to get up even without the creature’s ear-splitting shriek.

"Hmph. Can’t hold back any longer? I was waiting for you!"

With a thought, Shen Lang instantly sucked the Evil Spirit into his Tai Chi Diagram.

The next moment, a storm of black Scales erupted from his body, and in an instant, the Xingtian Battle Armor had clad him completely.

At this moment, Shen Lang was an imposing figure, radiating an overwhelming dominance!

The bones and sinews all over his body crackled in unison, like the low roll of thunder across the sky.

An incomparably Powerful Qi emanated from him, kicking up clouds of dust all around.

"Get them back!"

Shen Lang let out a short cry. Facing the Zombie in the air, he opened his mouth wide. "ROAR!"

A furious roar, like the Gale Lion’s Roar, burst forth, and a peerless wave of Powerful Qi surged out!

Within this ferocious blast of Powerful Qi, a glittering golden bead flashed past. With the speed of a thunderclap that leaves no time to cover one’s ears, it slammed heavily into the chest of the Zombie, which had already closed to within thirty meters!

A Zombie’s physical body is incredibly tough, far beyond what an ordinary Martial Artist can match.

But what Shen Lang held was the Star Moon Bodhi Prayer Beads!

The Buddhist Sect’s unique "Boneless Relic"!

SCREEECH!

The Zombie had come fast, but it was sent flying back even faster, letting out a sharp cry as it tumbled backward through the air!

Of course, Shen Lang didn’t think that a single strike from the Star Moon Bodhi Prayer Beads could kill a Zombie of this level.

The Star Moon Bodhi Prayer Beads were merely a tool to force the opponent back and move the battle to another area, to avoid harming the people of the Yin Family.

Seeing the Zombie blasted backward, Shen Lang drew his long saber and stomped his right foot hard on the ground.

BOOM!

With a sound like a clap of thunder, stone fragments flew everywhere. Shen Lang’s figure shot out like an arrow, launching into the air in the blink of an eye!

The repulsive force from his stomp merged perfectly with the power of the Ghost King. His speed was astonishing, and though he started second, he arrived first, directly catching up to the Zombie that had been sent flying!

Even a lion uses its full strength to catch a rabbit!

Facing this Zombie, which was covered in corpse poison and had few rivals below the King Martial Realm, Shen Lang had no intention of holding back any longer!

The Immortal Celestial Saber rose high. Amid flashes of lightning, he unleashed the Prison Guardian Blade Technique!

"Prison Guardian Blade Technique, Divine Blade Prison Guardian!"

As Shen Lang’s cry rang out, the Immortal Celestial Saber slashed down!

CLANG!

The sound of metal striking metal rang out. The Zombie tilted its massive head, and the Immortal Celestial Saber instantly struck its shoulder!
