Chapter 140 Why not more?
Everyone followed Liu Longtao's gaze and suddenly felt a chill in their hearts.

When did this person come?

His entire body was bruised and black. Logically, against the pure white snowy background, he should have been easily recognizable. However, he appeared in front of everyone without anyone noticing...

Looking at the unbelievable act of eating corpses, it is obvious that it is not a human being, but some kind of evil monster.

Liu Longtao didn't say anything, but just made a quick gesture, indicating to Captain Zheng to lead his men to retreat quickly.

The monks of Dingbei Army entered this secret realm not to die, but to provide Liu Longtao with numerical advantage, so that he could use his numbers to defeat the Korean monks as quickly as possible - what Lord Jing pursued was not only victory, but also a clean, neat and impeccable victory.

But the fact that this monster was able to sneak in silently showed that its movements were stealthy and extremely fast. Even the Korean monks couldn't defeat this monster, let alone the ordinary Dingbei Army monks.

Isn't it for the purpose of dealing with such dangerous enemies that the country spends huge amounts of money to train our teams?
Captain Zheng was also very tactful. He quietly gave orders in the channel, and the soldiers retreated quietly, leaving the battlefield to the Zhenhai Team and the Longxiong Team.

From beginning to end, the zombie squatted beside the corpse and quietly ate the heart, as if he could see nothing but food.

Liu Longtao gave Yan Yu a look, meaning "Do it?"

Yan Yu nodded.

The two men remained calm, each raised the Huangting and Yinglong swords, and then suddenly stabbed at the terrifying zombie.

The zombie crouched on the ground, devouring a human heart. It suddenly stood up, dodging the Huangting Sword's blow. It simultaneously extended its left hand and knocked the Yinglong Sword away, chewing the flesh in its right hand. Blood quickly seeped from its cloudy irises, quickly staining its eyes a scarlet crimson.

The name of this iron corpse contains the word "iron", so its level and rank are naturally different from ordinary zombies. It has been carefully refined by the ancient evil spirits, so how to deal with sword-wielding techniques is all instinct engraved in its brain.

He immediately swept a strange look over everyone, and finally locked onto Su Yunjin.

This one is the most delicious, eat it first!

The iron corpse's body tilted and suddenly disappeared from the spot. Its speed was almost comparable to the magic of movement. It pounced on Su Yunjin with a vicious attitude of choosing its prey, aiming at her delicate and fragile neck.

Yan Yu finally remembered: Yes, the Iron Corpse loves to eat the flesh of women and children. The younger they are and the more tender their skin and flesh are, the more this corpse demon likes to prey on them!
He was about to activate the Huangting Sword to rescue, but he saw Su Yunjin raise his arm like lightning, and his fingers had already formed a Taoist formula.

Secretary Su from before definitely wouldn't have been able to react. But after all this time of intense training, Yan Yu had forced his normal "eyes-brain-hands" sequence into "eyes-hands-brain," like Lin Ning's conditioned reflex: "No matter what comes at me, I'll hit you before I even see it clearly!"
Jiao Chong spurted out a large amount of water, instantly pushing the iron corpse into the air. Following closely was Coral Tears. The azure sword light turned into a full moon, and slashed cleanly at the chest of the iron corpse, making a dull sound like hitting rotten leather.

I...hit it? Su Yunjin realized it belatedly, and when he reacted, his face was full of disbelief.

Her combo, using Jiao Chong to trap the opponent and then slashing with Coral Tears, was originally designed to deal with the captain, but it has never been successful so far - Yan Yu deliberately let her Jiao Chong hit him every time, and then escaped calmly before Coral Tears could slash him. The disorientation caused by the flood seemed to have no effect on him.

Now facing this iron corpse, how could he hit it?
She was still in disbelief when the iron corpse in the air broke free from the water flow and landed on the ground unharmed. It spun around, picked up speed again, and turned its head to pounce on Chen Lingyun.

Chen Lingyun remained calm and waved the soul-calling banner slightly. The five ghosts rushed towards the iron corpse, but were all freed by the other party's fierce force. In the blink of an eye, they pounced in front of her and tore at her throat.

Just as the scumbag woman was about to be beheaded, a flower of light suddenly descended from the sky. It was Ye Jun activating the Xuanguang Ruler, trying to seize the opportunity to trap the iron corpse. However, the latter gave up its prey without hesitation, retreating quickly to dodge the Xuanguang Ruler's flower of light, and turned back to attack Lin Ning again.

Lin Ning was not afraid at all. The green bamboo sword turned into a green light and stabbed into the black chest of the iron corpse.

In the blink of an eye, the Iron Corpse had already changed its prey three times. It seemed like it couldn't eat any of them, but Liu Longtao knew clearly: with the opponent's swift speed and strong defense that could withstand the flying sword's slash, the current situation was actually extremely dangerous.

After all, the opponent may be thwarted in his attacks countless times, but if everyone fails just once, his sharp claws will grab their necks, and their skull and neck will be separated, making it difficult to save them!

"Old Yan, why don't you go up?" He turned to Yan Yu who was watching the fun on the side.

Seeing Yan Yu holding the Huangting Sword in front of him, ready to rescue people at any time, but not taking any action, Liu Longtao suddenly remembered something:

In fact, both Vice Captain Ye Jun and Zhang Huaide of the Pingxi Army's Fire Phoenix Team had analyzed the Zhenhai Team's biggest flaw:
That is, Yan Yu, as the tactical core, has always been outside the team and basically fights independently.

Although Yan Yu himself is so strong that this defect is largely overshadowed by his brilliance, the problem will not disappear out of thin air - his offensive rhythm is too fast and others cannot keep up, let alone cooperate.

To solve this problem, either Yan Yu had to "slow down" and integrate into the team system, or wait for the girls to grow up. There was no other way. "Old Yan, it's not easy for you either," Liu Longtao said suddenly.

Yan Yu was stunned when he heard this, what?
The reason why he didn't take action was certainly to give the girls some practice, but he was mainly paying attention to his surroundings.

Because Yan Yu finally remembered that Iron Corpses didn't usually appear alone. For corpse cultivation schools, refining one Iron Corpse was the same as refining ten Iron Corpses. The resources consumed weren't that much. The main cost was building the corpse refining pool. So they usually refined dozens of Iron Corpses at a time. Refining even a few dozen Iron Corpses was a waste of time.

If you think about it this way, then it is obviously unreasonable to use iron corpses as gatekeepers in the first level of the Changbai Mountain Secret Realm.

Who would use a random soldier as a goalkeeper?
Liu Longtao certainly didn't know about this, but the enemy monks who were a big threat to him were no longer around, so there was no need to race against time, so it would be fine to let his teammates practice.

The two captains stood on the periphery, each acting as a hands-off manager. The team members were completely focused, not daring to slack off or become careless. After all, the Iron Corpse was too fast, leaving no room for distraction.

Lin Ning's Green Bamboo Sword swung extremely swiftly. When the Iron Corpse grabbed her with its left hand, the sword light struck its left hand. When it grabbed her with its right hand, the sword light struck its right hand... This back-and-forth attack interrupted the attack, creating the feeling of a sword fight. The Iron Corpse was completely unable to move and was beaten back step by step.

Lin Daiyu had indeed taken to heart what Yan Yu had taught her before: "Attack from a distance and defend from close range." She made full use of the flexible characteristics of the short-axis defense.

The Iron Corpse couldn't penetrate her defenses, so it turned and pounced on Zhao Yuanzhen. How could the demonic woman restrain herself? What Lin Ning could do, I couldn't?

Kill kill kill!

The Yinfeng Sword slashed towards the iron corpse's neck, but the opponent did not dodge or evade, relying on his defense to take it head-on.

However, she did not expect that although Zhao Yuanzhen pretended to be a newbie, her actual cultivation had recovered a part. Coupled with the iron corpse's invulnerable defense, she forgot to restrain her strength for a moment (perhaps she was subconsciously afraid of being embarrassed if she could not win), and simply took out a large amount of true energy to activate it. The sword light tore through the space like thunder and lightning, so dazzling that it instantly filled everyone's vision.

As the sword flashed, the iron corpse's head fell to the ground, and its body immediately fell to the ground. Not a drop of blood flowed out from the broken part.

Everyone was stunned.

People like Ai Lu, Guo Feiyun, and others were even ready to engage the enemy in order, but they saw that the iron corpse was killed instantly by Zhao Yuanzhen's sword - wait, is this girl so awesome?
The iron corpse could not be injured by other people's sword attacks, but she chopped off its head with just one sword?
Zhao Yuanzhen also knew something was wrong. Did he just give away something? He accidentally revealed a glimpse of his strength, scaring these country bumpkins!
Oh no! I’m going to be scolded to death by this little thief!

Although secretly terrified, the demon girl still had some quick wit and burst into laughter on the spot:

"That's all? These weaklings! I can't get enough of them. Why don't you give me some more?"

Zhao Yuanzhen stepped on the iron corpse's body and smiled guiltily, not daring to look at Yan Yu who was staring at her.

But Yan Yu's gaze did not stay on her, but on the broken neck of the iron corpse - although there was no blood at all, thick black gas gradually seeped out, turning into woven tassels in the wind and snow, slowly floating towards the stone gate on the mountain wall.

Uh, let me think about it, I seem to have seen something similar in my memory...

"Back off!" Yan Yu suddenly shouted, "Stay away from the stone gate!"

The monks from the Longxiong Team and the Dingbei Army were still in a daze, but the girls did not hesitate and followed Yan Yu to activate the magic of movement and move away from the stone gate.

The next second, the stone door that was originally closed was suddenly opened to both sides.

Liu Longtao looked over and could no longer maintain his composure. He also shouted urgently:

"Retreat! Everyone retreat!"

From the open stone gate, a large group of black corpses poured out. A rough count showed that there were at least three digits of them.

These iron corpses moved swiftly and fiercely, with black hair and skin, red eyes, exposed fangs, and ferocious expressions. They rushed out of the stone gate like a tide and pounced greedily and ferociously towards the monks of Lu State.

Everyone was horrified at the sight and quickly turned and retreated. Amidst the clamor of frantic footsteps, someone's frantic shout rang out:

"Ahhhh Sister Zhao, you have such a bad mouth!"
