The End of the Extreme Dao: I Planted a Sacred Tree and Gained Immortality

Chapter 204: Probing, Corpse Ghost, Chakra Infection
"My mind is really a little confused, and I can't remember many things." Huo Ying nodded and continued, "I remember there is another house. I'll live there first, in case something unexpected happens to me and hurts you."

Zhang Yuqi opened her mouth and looked at Huo Ying in surprise. This sentence should be her own line. According to common sense, Huo Ying should not remember that room when he wakes up again.

Bai Xizhi looked at the twisted needle tip and shook her head: "You have become infected and will no longer be in any danger. The outside world is not safe now. You should stay here and we should take care of each other."

It’s worthy of you, Bai Xizhi!
Huo Ying was speechless for a moment. Bai Xizhi had lost her memory at this time, so the reason she drove him away last time was essentially because she was useless...

"I think what Huo Ying said makes some sense. Let him be alone for a night and see if he can recall anything and study his abilities at the same time." Zhang Yuqi frowned and forced the script back on track. She wanted to create a beautiful Garden of Eden for Huo Ying and make him depend on her.

Now some changes have occurred and Huo Ying has gained influence. If Huo Ying is not allowed to experience danger, how can he obediently follow his arrangements?

However, Huo Ying's ability is only low-level skin hardening. Although he has deviated from the track, his ability is not outstanding and is still within the controllable range.

"You're right." Huo Ying got out of bed and walked straight to the cellar. He opened the shutter, looked at the few poplar trees and potatoes in stock, and took out one third of them.

"These should be what we all accumulated before I lost my memory. Now that I'm leaving here, I'll take what belongs to me."

……

Bai Xizhi stood there in a daze. She felt that there were still many things she hadn't said in her subconscious mind, but the situation at this moment made her subconscious mind feel very unfamiliar.

Zhang Yuqi also forgot the words a little bit. After a while of silence, Zhang Yuqi decided to skip this part and then opened the door: "Let's go, I'll take you there."

Holding a basket of potatoes and carrying a bundle of firewood, Huo Ying walked out of the house.

The avenue was bare, with no grass or trees, and the road surface was covered with mottled soil.

What a familiar sight.

Huo Ying glanced around and his eyes fell on a ruined wall. A human face appeared in the shadow.

“You think you are the only one who can control time.”

"You are wrong. You can't escape from me."

The face of the figure gradually became clearer and slowly transformed into the appearance of Tai Shang.

The next second, before Huo Ying could react, the figure froze.

Wait, what am I doing!
What have I transformed into?
Why did I conjure up this picture!
Oh my God, is this man just imagining things, or did I accidentally see something incredible?

Zhang Yuqi silently took out the Yang Stone, but the corpse ghost that poked its head out from the shadows actually shrank back in fear.

No, I haven't roasted the Red Sun Stone yet, why did this corpse ghost give up attacking?

Huo Ying shrugged and walked towards the shadows: "There is a zombie outside your house. You'd better kill it, otherwise it will be too dangerous."

"Wait..." Zhang Yuqi was about to remind someone, but saw that Huo Ying had already crawled into the shadows. Without hearing the sound of the corpse ghost's attack, Huo Ying quickly crawled out again.

"He must have run away. Let's keep going." Huo Ying waved to Zhang Yuqi, then took the lead and walked towards his former residence.

After entering the house, Huo Ying put the firewood and potatoes away, while Zhang Yuqi stood at the door and slowly closed the door.

"Have you recovered your memory?"

Zhang Yuqi stared at Huo Ying seriously, ready to take action at any time.

"I don't remember anything, but I vaguely feel that I should live here." Huo Ying organized the resources without any defense: "Shouldn't I be suspicious of you? When I wake up from your room, I think you are all good people?"

"This is the end of the world. I have no memory of the past, so you can't be trusted." Huo Ying turned around, looked into Zhang Yuqi's eyes, and said seriously, "If you want me to agree with what you say, it's useless to just talk. I want to see what you do."

See, what do we do?
Zhang Yuqi felt that she was dazed a lot today.

The script clearly stated that Huo Ying saw the end of the world, was helpless, and subconsciously relied on himself, so how did it become a script in which Huo Ying evaluated his own performance?
"If you feel dangerous, remember to come back and live with us. That is... your home." Zhang Yuqi was silent for a while, and finally decided to observe for a while, then opened the door and prepared to leave.

"and many more!"

Huo Ying called Zhang Yuqi.

"You forgot to give me the fire."

"Oh."

Zhang Yuqi threw the lighter over and then left in a hurry, wanting to go home and review what happened today.

Bang.

After making sure Zhang Yuqi had gone far away, a puff of white smoke appeared in Huo Ying's room.

The corpse ghost that Zhang Yuqi had just used to test and intimidate Huo Ying was summoned out of the mirror ghost world.

When he entered the shadow before, Huo Ying did not kill the corpse ghost, but pulled it into the spiritual space.

In his previous life, Huo Ying accidentally killed too many people and wasted a lot of labor for no reason. This time, Huo Ying would not make such a mistake.

puff.

When the corpse ghost saw that it was Huo Ying in front of him, he knelt on the ground without any hesitation.

Hiss, hiss.

In fear, the corpse ghost forgot the human language. After recalling for a long time, the corpse ghost finally stammered and spoke human words.

"Sir, I, I don't know anything."

"It's my fault. In my previous life, I used the kaleidoscope to restrict your thoughts and thus ignored your consciousness." Huo Ying summed up his mistakes: "I have always treated you as labor and I actually ignored your origins. So, you, the Corpse Ghost Clan, and Tai Shang, come from the same world?"

"You are not transformed by infectious force, but life from another world?"

Before looking back, Huo Ying had discovered clues of black fog and flying insects. These two came too suddenly. Huo Ying also guessed that it was probably at night when cracks appeared in time and space, causing the black fog and flying insects to cover the world, but he never investigated further.

Today, the corpse ghost was able to transform into the appearance of Tai Shang, which made Huo Ying realize that there were many infected things in this world that were not changed by the virus, but penetrated through the cracks when Tai Shang tore the space.

Black fog, flying insects and zombies, it must be all three.

Huo Ying’s question was too complicated and the corpse ghost didn’t know how to answer. Then he rolled his eyes and used his illusion ability towards Huo Ying.

The next second, the world in front of Huo Ying changed.

He saw a world full of darkness. All life was madly devouring and snatching infectious power. The whole world was in chaos.

Soon, the scene ended.

This is Tai Shang's world. Due to the spread of infection, all life has become strange. They have forgotten to reproduce and only know how to devour and fight.

Just like in the human world, powerful gods constantly devour weak gods until the weak disappear and the strong become weak, and the cycle repeats over and over again. Finally, the race is exterminated and only Tai Shang is left.

While Tai Shang was tearing apart time and space, looking for a new planet to reproduce the gods, space cracks appeared, which was also the reason why the corpse ghosts and black fog flying insects brought about the end of the world.

"Although I really want to keep you, you know too much."

A Big Sun Rasengan penetrated into the body of the corpse. In the blink of an eye, the infectious force in the corpse dissipated. Before even the gray shadow could appear, the corpse shattered like foam.

Memories between infected entities are not shared.

Huo Ying had experimented with this before looking back.

No matter whether it is Tai Shang or Nuwa Pangu, even though they have killed so many weird things, they still don’t know their own abilities. This is enough to prove that Tai Shang will not know what the corpse ghosts have discovered.

This is also the reason why Huo Ying dared to test the corpse ghost.

It was dark. But this time, the black fog and flying insects did not penetrate into Huo Ying's room.

Huo Ying already possessed a perfect immortal body. The yang energy contained in him was even more abundant than that of poplar wood. The black fog and flying insects subconsciously avoided Huo Ying and did not dare to approach him at all.

Suddenly.

There were footsteps outside Huo Ying's room.

Then, the voice stopped at Huo Ying's door.

"Huo Ying, are you okay?"

From outside the door came Zhang Yuqi's voice.

"Huo Ying, are you still alive? I'm here to help you."

Huo Ying lit a piece of firewood to illuminate the room.

"Wait a moment, the door will open soon."

Responded!
The corpse ghost outside the door showed a hideous smile.

This time, the prey was too gullible. He hadn’t met such a gullible human being in the town for a long time.

His current body has begun to rot, and he can no longer seduce living humans. He must abandon his human body and turn into a powerless gray shadow again.

That kind of life is too boring. It would be more interesting to become a corpse ghost and snatch human bodies.

Squeak.

The door opened.

Huo Ying stood in front of the door and looked at the corpse quietly.

Haha, you must be scared. It’s not Zhang Yuqi, it’s me.

The corpse ghost licked its lips, looked at Huo Ying sideways, stretched out its sharp claws, and strangled Huo Ying's throat.

"What a delicious taste, what a strong body, what abundant solar power. Now, this body is mine!"

The corpse ghost let out a roar of laughter, but after blinking, the laughter stopped abruptly.

and many more……

Such delicious taste, such strong body...

Such abundant solar power!

What the hell, why is there such terrible solar power in this person's body!

The corpse ghost looked at its claws in horror, and when it stabbed towards Huo Ying, the moment its claws touched Huo Ying, they were burned by the power of the sun and melted instantly, leaving only half an arm.

The most terrifying thing is that the origin of the corpse ghost, the gray shadow that was parasitic in the corpse, had most of its energy burned away.

This! This is not a human!

Oh my god! What the hell!

The corpse ghost was about to abandon its physical body and turn into a gray shadow and leave, but after exerting its strength for a long time, the corpse ghost just jumped on the spot and the gray shadow did not leave its physical body.

A strange rune appeared on the corpse.

A seal to seal evil.

A phantom of Shukaku appeared behind Huo Ying. Before the corpse ghost noticed, Shukaku had already transformed into a chakra coat and took action on behalf of Huo Ying, completely sealing the gray shadow in the corpse.

puff.

The corpse ghost slid to its knees instantly. As a lower-level ghost, it immediately remembered the rules of survival when it was still in its original world.

"come in."

Huo Ying walked into the house.

The corpse ghost crawled in on his knees and closed the door.

"Don't be afraid. I'm very kind to my employees."

Suddenly, strange patterns appeared on Huo Ying's face, and his whole body exuded a terrifying aura. The air suddenly became heavy, and the ground in the room seemed to sink an inch.

Perfect Sage Mode.

Without attacking, Huo Ying entered the Perfect Sage Mode, then condensed the chakra scalpel, opened the Sharingan, and took out a chakra cell from his body.

With the help of the Sharingan and chakra, Huo Ying was able to easily complete an experiment that even researchers of the old dean's level would have to use a lot of equipment to complete.

"You corpse ghosts can interfere with the human mind. Obviously, your mental power is stronger than that of humans. In my previous life, I overlooked it and turned such useful things into white Zetsu."

"Obviously, you are more suitable for chakra cell transplantation than humans."

White Zetsu is a product of Wood Release and a part of Huo Ying's ninjutsu. Transplanting chakra cells is useless.

But the corpse ghost is different. It uses the human body. Because of the parasitism of the gray shadow, the dead human body still retains a trace of vitality and can fuse chakra cells.

The mental power of corpse ghosts is inherently stronger than that of humans. Compared with experiments on infected organisms, corpse ghosts with stronger mental abilities and human bodies are obviously more suitable as successful experimental subjects.

Roar!
An angry roar came from Huo Ying's room.

The roar echoed in the silent night, frightening the infected creatures hiding in the black fog for food.

"what happened!"

Zhang Yuqi suddenly looked out the window.

Almost all the dangers in Ailing Town were under her control. How could such a terrifying power fluctuation suddenly occur?

“This kind of energy should be a strange thing passing by.”

Zhang Yuqi frowned. She clearly sensed that the energy contained in that roar was no weaker than hers, and it must be a peak level 3 existence. But the people in the town had been screened by her, and there were only a few people. In addition, the Azure Gene Factory had a large group of level 3 infected creatures. Facing a town with more wolves than meat, powerful infected creatures should not come in to look for food.

"Damn it, why are there so many variables? Tomorrow, I have to find a way to find this monster and not let it ruin my plan."

the other side.

The corpse ghost's body underwent amazing changes. Its skin became like a layer of hard armor, and its originally gray face gradually began to distort. Its eyes, which used to be dead and empty, suddenly flashed with an indescribable light.

His thin arms seemed to be pushed by some invisible force, and with a series of crackling sounds, they gradually became thicker and stronger, and his fingers stretched out like sharp claws. Every bone was constantly proliferating, and muscles were piled up layer by layer.

The corpse's back suddenly bent, and a pair of black iron wings suddenly burst out from behind it. The wings were made of rotten bones and dark aura, with hard scales on the surface and a cold light on the edges. They flapped the air violently, making a creepy hissing sound and bringing a soul-stirring sense of oppression.

"My...body..."

The corpse ghost obviously felt that its body was abnormally strong, but because it was parasitic, the out-of-control natural energy did not affect its spirit. Instead, it could not find a vent point and slowly calmed down.

The first chakra infected creature was born.

Easier than the birth of a chakra warrior.
