System: Infinite Evolution into Qilin Bloodline

Zhang Hao originally thought he would encounter a tough battle, but although the black-robed giant was fierce at first, it was eventually defeated by his attacks and turned into a wisp of black smoke and dissipated into the air.

He was slightly taken aback. He had originally expected to encounter a formidable opponent, but he hadn't anticipated that the opponent would be so easily defeated.

The group continued their exploration deeper into the tomb.

However, at that moment, the fat man's exclamation broke the silence.

"Oh my god, how did my foot collapse the floorboards?!"

As the fat man spoke, he tried to pull his foot out of the hole, his face full of embarrassment.

Wu Tianzhen joked:

"Fatty, it seems you really need to lose some weight, otherwise we'll have to bring some reinforced floorboards with us on our next adventure."

The fat man retorted with a bitter face:

"I'm not that heavy, Fatty. This floor must have been in disrepair for a long time..."

Before he could finish speaking, his expression suddenly changed, and his gaze was fixed on the bottom of the hole, as if he had seen something unbelievable.

"You...you come quick and see!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Hao and the others gathered around and looked in the direction the fat man was pointing.

Beneath the hole lay countless corpses, all of them pregnant women, creating a chilling and terrifying scene.

"What...what's going on?"

Ding Yudie covered her mouth, her eyes filled with terror.

Zhang Hao frowned, a sense of foreboding rising in his heart.

He signaled everyone to be careful, then led them slowly down the hole to the pile of corpses.

It was cold and damp here, and the air was filled with a nauseating stench that made you want to escape.

"Why are all these corpses pregnant women?"

Yi Sa asked in a low voice, her voice tinged with doubt.

Jie Xiaohua shook her head, indicating that she didn't understand.

He carefully examined the corpses, trying to find clues.

However, these corpses had long since lost their vitality, leaving only withered flesh and bare bones, with very few useful clues.

Just then, the previously still corpses suddenly began to wriggle slightly, and then they all came back to life, their eyes bloodshot, their mouths wide open, and they pounced on the crowd.

"Everyone, be careful!"

Zhang Hao shouted and moved like the wind, quickly dodging the resurrected corpses.

Everyone then unleashed their skills and engaged in a fierce battle with the corpses.

However, these corpses seemed to be impervious to pain. No matter how badly they were beaten, they could quickly recover as if they were controlled by some mysterious force and would never fall.

"This...this is just like those corpses in the Breath of Earth, they can't be killed at all!"

Wu Tianzhen cried out in terror.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Hao's heart sank.

He remembered that within the Breath Soil, the corpses fused with it were equally difficult to kill unless the Breath Soil itself was destroyed first.

But this place is clearly not where the Breath of Earth is located. What kind of deity is causing this trouble?

At this moment, Zhang Hao unleashed his eternal cold energy, freezing all the surrounding corpses into ice pops.

Seeing this, everyone felt somewhat relieved, thinking that the crisis had been resolved.

However, the next second, the entire cave began to writhe, as if a huge living thing was awakening.

Those corpses, frozen solid, were slowly swallowed by the writhing cave and disappeared without a trace.

"What...what's going on?"

The fat man asked, his face pale and his voice trembling.

Wu Tianzhen's expression changed drastically, and she exclaimed:

"This is...this is a corpse cave! I've seen something like this in the old man's notebook. It's formed from the resentment of countless pregnant women. As long as the resentment isn't dispelled, these corpses will never find peace, and they can never be killed!"

Zhang Hao knew that if he wanted to leave this place, he had to find a way to eliminate these resentments.

Otherwise, they would all be trapped in this terrifying cave of corpses forever.

However, that applies to other people; there might be other solutions for him.

"Don't panic, everyone. We'll definitely find a way out."

Zhang Hao knew that ordinary methods would be of no use against this corpse cave formed by endless resentment.

“Naive, you’re right, this is a corpse cave, but we’re not without a chance of winning.”

Zhang Hao took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and began to mobilize the power of the Qilin bloodline within his body.

A warm aura surged from his body, quickly spreading and pushing back the surrounding cold aura.

He opened his eyes, which shone with golden light—a sign of the awakening of the Qilin bloodline.

"The fire of the Qilin will burn away all things!"

Zhang Hao gave a low shout and then swung his hand forward.

A blazing flame erupted from his palm, transforming into a fire dragon that swirled and danced in the tomb. Wherever it passed, the resurrected corpses were engulfed by the flames, emitting mournful howls.

However, the corpse cave seemed unafraid of the raging flames; instead, it seemed to be enraged and writhed even more violently.

The corpses burned by the flames rapidly regenerated as they were devoured by the corpse cave, as if they would never run dry.

"It seems that although the Qilin Fire is powerful, it is not enough to completely eliminate these resentments."

Zhang Hao frowned, but he was not discouraged.

He knew that the power of the Qilin bloodline was far more than that, but he had not yet fully grasped its secrets.

The Qilin Fire is the flame beneath the feet of the Fire-Treading Qilin, but currently his blood has not yet returned to the ancestral Qilin state, so his strength is slightly weaker.

It seems we still need to find all the Qilin bodies first and evolve the Qilin bloodline into the Ancestral Qilin bloodline.

Zhang Hao extinguished the flames, and with a thought, transformed into a Qilin that appeared in the sky.
