Human versus Zombie cultivators: Chapter 2

/*unedited*/

Dismembered bodies turn the ground crimson red as blood and flesh are scattered everywhere. The Bell toothed plants are slowly picking everything up and feasting on the remaining corpses of the fallen cultivators. When the remaining cultivators saw this, their backs broke out in cold sweat.

From almost a thousand people, they have lost a tenth. Luckily Jin Fu started giving commands or else more than half would have died in this trap.

As they analyze the situation the path they took is clearly a trap. Who trapped them in this place is a mystery, as the people responsible for leading the large group has already left them to their own device. So without a choice, they look at Jin Fu as he was able to help them go out of that dangerous situation.

"Everybody listen up! If you want to live, leaving this cursed place is the only way. But for those who wanted to challenge their own destiny, the path ahead is open for you." Jin Fu shouted.

His voice reverberated and everybody heard him. Hush discussion immediately broke out from the gathered crowd.

"Young one, I have a question?" suddenly from the crowd, a middle-aged man with a cultivation of late-stage gold core realm flew up and approach the front.

His gray robe flutters through the wind as he floated through the air and landed in front of Jin Fu.

"My young fellow, I am Ping Gui, a traveling cultivator. I just wanted to ask if your decision is to go back or move forward?" the middle-aged man asked while cupping his hands.

"Senior, this junior is going back. I still have a son and was just forced to be here. The mayor has threatened to kick us out if we don't participate, so we have no choice. But now, since the people leading us have already left we have no choice but to go back." Jin Fu replied.

"Good! I will join you then." The middle-aged man said with a smile.

When the people heard this everyone has a complicated reaction. Some wanted to retreat as their friends have already fallen in the first trap and they didn't know if there are more. They thought that with a number their safety is guaranteed. Plus the allure of the reward has pushed them to go on this quest.

And some wanted to push forward as they are cultivators who seek experience. They know that only life and death battle can improve their skills and cultivation.

Suddenly…

"Kekeke… do you think that this place is your house? You can enter and leave whenever you want? You people are too naïve. You dared challenge my master, now all of you will die. And your corpses will become a part of our army. Hihihihi…" an almost shrieking female voice echoed through the air.

A pin-drop silence immediately engulfs the surroundings.

Everyone has their spiritual sense scanning their surroundings trying to locate the direction of the voice. The tense atmosphere is making every person in the forest feel like being watched by a piercing gaze, which is making their bodies and even their own souls' shiver.


Jin Fu quietly observes his surroundings while Ling Ya has already cast a defensive barrier protecting her and their group.

"What… What is that?" suddenly Elder Jugs muttered as he turns his eyes into slits while trying to figure out a silhouette flying above the trees.

"Is that a dragon?" the middle-aged man named Ping Gui asked.

"No way! That's… that's a flying dragon! That's a level 5 beast."

"Damn it! What should we do now?"

"We need to run! We don't have a chance against that thing."

Suddenly panic-stricken voices can be heard from the crowd. But some just stood in their place; most of these people's gazes are glued to Jin Fu. They have already experienced his leadership ability, so they know who to follow in this bunch.

Jin Fu calmly watches the approaching behemoth, as he tried to formulate a plan of attack.

His eyes would sometimes turn towards the clamoring crowd and his mind went to work.

Before marrying Ling Ya, Jin Fu is actually a top student of one of the 9 heavenly immortal schools. His intelligence and talent are top-notch especially when it comes to war tactics. But since his cultivation is normal in progression and his peers have already left him.

As of now most of his peers are already in the infant soul or nascent realm. If based in the Xi empire standard, his classmates would already be Dao protectors of a clan or a city or even a kingdom. But they wouldn't want that, as it is equivalent to neglecting their cultivation progress. So most of the students of the 9 heavenly immortal schools are staying in a hidden place, a place where battles of powerful beings are always happening and that place is sometimes called the top of the world.

When he was younger, Jin Fu's dream is to someday go to that place, the top of the world. But upon realizing that his talent in cultivation is lacking, then he could only give up. But his talent in grasping battle situation is something that they didn't discover and he would never tell this to anyone anymore because he already found his purpose in his life. And that is to protect and be a father to his son and a husband to his wife.

In Jin Fu's mind, he already formulated a battle plan, which includes all the cultivators. But because of panic, he deduces that 50% of the cultivators will survive this battle. No matter how hard he tries to change the battle plan it always comes out as such.

So without a choice, he has to follow his plan.

As the dragon drew closer, Jin Fu readied himself and shouted his command.

"Everyone, I will tell you my battle plan! Listen and listen well. Your life is on the line if you follow you will live if not then it's your fate…" he shouted.

Immediately Jin Fu gives out his instruction as clearly as he could. He didn't have time to explain it further as the huge looming figure of a green dragon can now clearly be seen.

Its huge body is already half rotten while no traces of blood can be seen. From the dirt covering almost all of its body, one can say that the creature seems to have been recently dug up. Coming out of its mouth is a cloud of dark green smoke, which just shows that its breath is made of poisonous air.

Upon seeing this everyone almost fell down on the ground in fear. Though Jin Fu relays his instructions many of them are already numb and unable to listen to his voice.

Seeing this, the people around Jin Fu shook their heads as they already know that more than half in this crowd will surely die.

And even before the dragon could arrive, many cultivators started to run away in all directions. In fear of facing the undead dragon, they began to flee into the forest. Then curdling sound can be heard from deep within as those who ran were killed by those undead creatures scattered everywhere.

"Guys, trust me. We can do this." Jin Fu said as his gaze turns to the people around him.

Everyone nods their heads as they already grasp the plan Jin Fu has relayed.



Meanwhile in the town of Snowpeach…

Shin Jiao is currently sitting in a chair and in front of him is a large screen monitor. He is currently looking at a live video feed of different sources. He has launched a hovering mini satellite which would act as a receiver and transmitter at 2,000 kilometers above ground.  The mini satellite is coated with a camouflage technology which Shin Jiao uses. Then to make sure that no accident would happen, like someone or something hitting it while flying, he installed an A.I. with sensors onboard.

If based on Earth's technology this is a dream, but on this planet and with Shin Jiao's crafting ability it became a reality.

As he observed through the hidden cameras in both Jin Fu and Ling Ya's armor, he was able to see the situation and was stunned at Jin Fu's battle tactics. Then a smile cracked from his lips.

"If he is on earth, Jin Fu would be a great player of MMORPG games. His plan is like doing a boss raid, where many players in a guild can participate." Shin Jiao muttered.

But then a feeling of uneasiness suddenly made him uncomfortable.

And because of this Shin Jiao heaves a sigh of helplessness. In his mind, the picture of little Hao'er being sad and crying suddenly enters, which made Shin Jiao felt uneasy. He has already taken a liking to the cute and smart little kid. Plus he considers his parents to be his friends so he didn't decide to give them a hand.

Actually Shin Jiao has a feeling that the soul essence is being used by the necromancer and he wanted to get it, which will add to his power. But after hearing the story of the man they called necromancer, he hesitated. Though the man has killed a lot of people already, however, who is he to judge as he himself has also killed many.

But now he already found his reason to help, especially upon hearing the threatening voice.

"I guess I still have to make my move or else that little boy would truly be sad." He said with a helpless chuckle.
