Lin Changqing had all kinds of talent enhancements, so his mental strength was not weak. Even he could not extricate himself from the malicious ghost's charm, which showed how powerful the malicious ghost was.
As for Shuling, no matter what form the malicious ghost took or how powerful it was, it silently killed it in one strike.
Shuling's strength of Lupin with question marks did not disappoint Lin Changqing.
Lin Changqing found Little Bamboo. With the [Short Knife] in his hand, he, Little Tiger, and Little Green continued to chase after the villager who had disappeared without a trace.
When they reached a relatively open area, they stopped. One person and two pets formed a triangular formation with their backs against each other, vigilantly facing the rustling movements around them.
Surrounding them was a group of stiff figures. Shuling called them mutated corpses, and Lin Changqing felt that these were zombies.
Little Green was the strongest. He took the lead and rushed forward. He used [Charge] and appeared behind a zombie. He opened his mouth and bit the zombie's neck. With Little Green's strength at the Advanced Strength Refinement Realm, its combat strength was comparable to the Qi Refinement Realm. One could imagine its bite force.
However, when it bit down, it did not break the zombie's neck. Little Green bit the zombie's neck and retreated forcefully, dragging down the zombie with great resistance. Then, it threw the zombie out with force.
Crack!
With a crisp sound, Little Green finally bit off the zombie's neck. The zombie that had been thrown to the ground and had its neck bitten off was still struggling, as if it wanted to get up.
Seeing this scene, Lin Changqing's mood became solemn.
Little Green continued to use its [Charge] speed to attack the zombies closest to Lin Changqing, but there were too many zombies surrounding him. Its effect on zombies was not high, and it could not block all the zombies' attacks on Lin Changqing.
The zombies' movements were stiff, but their speed was not slow. Some zombies passed through Little Green's defense line and pounced at Lin Changqing.
Lin Changqing held the [Bamboo Staff] in his hand and aimed it at the zombie's head. His martial arts strength was at the Advanced Force Refinement Realm. Coupled with the enhancement of talents like the [Wild Power], his strength was not weaker than an intermediate or advanced martial artist in the Strength Refinement Realm.
Bang!
[Bamboo Staff] was blessed with talent, and every strike would hit.
Lin Changqing's powerful strike landed on the zombie's head, as if it had hit a piece of pig iron. The zombie that had suffered a heavy blow to its head only staggered back before continuing to pounce on Lin Changqing.
Lin Changqing's heart sank as he continued to use the [Bamboo Staff] to attack the zombies. Little Tiger behind him also rushed towards a zombie that was pouncing on him.
Plop!
Lin Changqing's continuous staff strikes finally triggered the stun effect of Little Bamboo's [Stick Strike] talent, knocking the zombie to the ground and causing it to enter a coma.
"The stun effect is indeed effective on zombies." Lin Changqing was overjoyed. Using the agility, speed, and skill brought about by the [Charge] talent, he arrived beside the fallen zombie in a flash. He pulled out the [Short Knife] with his right hand and slashed at the zombie's neck.
"Crack!" With a sound, the [Short Knife], which already had the strength of the Advanced Force Refinement Realm, was extremely sharp under the enhancement of the [Sharp Weapon] talent. With one slash, it cut off the zombie's neck that was as hard as iron.
Now that Lin Changqing had a way to deal with zombies, he became calm and calmly killed the zombies that pounced on him one by one.
Little Tiger's strength had increased. Its strength was its perception. In terms of combat strength, it was inferior to the current Lin Changqing. In the face of the hard zombies, Little Tiger lacked an effective way to kill them. It could only use its agility to continuously attack the zombies' legs and drag them to the ground.
The fatal blow to the zombies was left to Lin Changqing and Little Green.
The main force to kill the zombies was Little Green, who was the strongest. Little Green blocked most of the zombies' attacks alone, while Lin Changqing and Little Tiger were only supporting.
The more they fought, the smoother the fight became. The more they fought, the more tacit they became. They made full use of the terrain and their advantage in speed and agility to kill the dozens of terrifying zombies that surrounded them one by one.
"Master, another malicious ghost has arrived. If I don't make a move, we can only retreat now." Lin Changqing, who was fighting with the zombies, suddenly received an emergency warning from Shuling.
"Retreat!" Lin Changqing didn't hesitate and immediately called for Little Tiger and Little Green to hide in the forest at the side.
The surviving zombies followed closely behind.
Lin Changqing didn't return to the village. He used the day to investigate the surrounding situation and followed a small path that the villagers used to enter the mountain. He passed through the village and ran in the direction of Fengjia Town.
With [Powerful Perception], darkness had no effect on him at all. They were extremely fast. They passed through the forest in the middle of the night and quickly escaped the pursuit of the zombies.
However, the malicious ghost and people in the dark still chased after them.
Late at night, the forest was filled with danger. Snakes and insects were everywhere, and ferocious beasts ran rampant. If ordinary people were not careful, they could easily lose their lives.
Little Green, who had the bloodline of a demonic beast, opened up a path in front. Its aura was fully released, and the surrounding snakes and insects retreated. The ferocious beasts lost their voices and obediently made way.
Lin Changqing brought Little Tiger and Little Green all the way to the official road before the malicious ghost retreated unwillingly. The person following in the dark was still persevering, following closely behind Lin Changqing and the others.
"Shuling, go and kill the person who's secretly following us. Don't make too much noise. Are you confident?"
Although Lin Changqing was used to people secretly paying attention to him, the person in the dark was tracking him late at night. The malicious ghosts and zombies might be related to that person, and the Lu family and Fan Le'an might also be related to this person, which made him very unhappy.
If there was a chance to secretly get rid of him, Lin Changqing would feel much better.
Lin Changqing had transmigrated here and lived in danger every moment. His mind was very depressed. Coupled with the impact and influence his predecessor had experienced, he had changed a lot in this short period of time.
Even though he had the [Wisdom] talent to clean up the negative effects on his mind, he did not hesitate to decide the life and death of others.
Towards his enemies, Lin Changqing could already do it and no longer treated them as humans.
"Master, I can go and kill him!" Shuling gave an affirmative answer.
As long as Shuling was willing to help, Lin Changqing knew that there would be no danger in doing so. Shuling was more meticulous than him. With Shuling watching from the side, Lin Changqing could relax from time to time without worrying about any mistakes.
"Then kill him!" Lin Changqing gave Shuling an order.
The main body of Shuling flew out of Lin Changqing's arms and silently passed through the shadows. In an instant, it flew hundreds of meters. An imperceptible spiritual energy saber beam shot out and shot into the shadow under a big tree. A black shadow fell!
A stream of spiritual energy swept over the black shadow on the ground, and a few things flew out. They followed behind Shuling's main body and flew back to Lin Changqing's side.
