Zombie Cultivation Across Worlds

Chapter 17 – There is actually a cultivator in Linjiang Province!



Old Zheng felt a tightness in his heart.

By rights, he shouldn't reveal what this item was.

But the young man before him had saved their lives.

And it was clear he possessed incredibly powerful strength.

In such a situation, there was no need for secrecy.

It was better to be honest.

He held back Zhuang Qiang and Sun Meng, who wanted to stand in front of him, and said seriously, "Inside here is a Level 3 spiritual energy core, sourced from a Level 3 zombie bear."

"I beg you not to take it. It's very useful for our Institute of Life Sciences."

"With its help, we might be able to develop a weapon to counter zombies, which would be a great benefit to the world..."

Chu Xuan asked curiously, "When did I say I wanted to take it?"

Old Zheng was taken aback, "You don't want it? This is a Level 3 spiritual energy core."

Chu Xuan chuckled lightly, "In my eyes, it's not much different from a marble on the ground."

"Let me take a look." He extended his hand.

Old Zheng hesitated for a moment but eventually handed over the box.

He had lived for many years and met many people.

The young man's words carried an air of arrogance, as if he truly didn't care for the spiritual energy core.

Chu Xuan opened the box.

Inside lay a crimson bead, quietly resting at the bottom.

At first glance, it didn't seem much different from a glass marble.

But upon closer inspection, he immediately sensed a trace of energy within the bead.

The essence of this energy was far inferior to spiritual energy.

Though the quantity was considerable, in comparison, it barely matched the spiritual energy in a small spirit stone.

After a few glances, Chu Xuan placed the item back in the box and shook his head slightly.

The so-called Level 3 spiritual energy core had only as much energy as a small spirit stone.

He had already formed a rough understanding of the transcendent system on Ocean Blue Star.

"You two, are Level 1 Extraordinary Beings? From the military?"

Chu Xuan's gaze fell on the two men in black.

He could tell that their every move was well-coordinated.

Such coordination was unlikely to be developed in civilian life; they must have a military background.

The two exchanged a glance and nodded.

Zhuang Qiang spoke seriously, "We are from the Linjiang Army of Linjiang Province, ordered to retrieve the zombie bear's spiritual energy core and ensure Professor Zheng's safe evacuation."

Chu Xuan nodded slightly.

Even with the outbreak of the zombie crisis and the apocalypse descending, as long as humanity wasn't entirely wiped out, there would still be nations and forces.

Clearly, the official power of the Yanhan Celestial Empire still existed.

"Who will come to evacuate you?" Chu Xuan asked casually.

Sun Meng replied, "The Black Edge Security Company, they will use a helicopter to get us out."

Chu Xuan nodded, "Why haven't they arrived?"

Zhuang Qiang sighed, "Their helicopter hasn't been used for a long time and needs repairs, so our agreed time was noon. But we were besieged by a large number of zombies and had to send a distress signal to have them come earlier."

"Perhaps that's why there's a delay."

The two men exchanged a glance and sighed.

After all, the Black Edge Security Company was just a small local force, incomparable to their disciplined and orderly Linjiang Army.

Their deaths wouldn't matter much.

But failing to bring back the Level 3 spiritual energy core would be a huge loss for the entire Linjiang Province.

Chu Xuan smiled slightly, "You've attracted so many zombies, which is very useful to me."

"You help me with one thing, and I'll help you leave safely."

Old Zheng and the two men were taken aback.

Old Zheng widened his eyes, "Please tell us! We'll do whatever we can!"

After speaking, he felt he might have overpromised and quickly added, "But we can't do anything against the rules, that's our bottom line."

Chu Xuan smiled, "No need to do anything, just stand on the rooftop and keep attracting zombies."

"With the Rock Talisman, that door won't be broken."

Old Zheng and the two men exchanged a doubtful glance.

Continue attracting zombies?

What was this young man planning?

They couldn't figure out what Chu Xuan was up to, so they decided not to overthink it.

Old Zheng nodded, "This is not difficult, we can do it."

Chu Xuan nodded.

In the next moment, he rose into the air on his sword.

A strong wind blew on the rooftop, making it hard for the three to keep their eyes open.

When they could see again, Chu Xuan was already in the sky.

Old Zheng and the others were utterly shocked.

When Chu Xuan first appeared, they hadn't seen clearly.

But now they watched with their own eyes as Chu Xuan flew into the sky!

What was this?

Flying on a sword!

Wasn't this something only found in cultivation novels?

And yet it appeared right before their eyes!

Zhuang Qiang swallowed, "Flying through the air! This isn't something a human can do..."

Sun Meng was horrified, "Could he be a cultivator?"

Old Zheng's mind was in turmoil.

He felt as if his worldview, already reshaped by the zombie crisis, was collapsing once again.

"This must be reported immediately upon our return..."

"A cultivator... We actually have a cultivator in Linjiang Province!"

Old Zheng's aged fingers trembled uncontrollably.

On the other side.

Chu Xuan flew through the sky, looking for a suitable place to set up the formation.

The Blood Transformation Formation required eighteen formation flags.

He needed to place these eighteen flags in eighteen locations.

And embed spirit stones in these eighteen flags.

Finally, the formation would be activated through the formation disk.

Chu Xuan's skill in formations was only average.

But he was willing to put in the effort, so he could proficiently set up the Blood Transformation Formation.

Half an hour later, he had the eighteen flags in place.

From above, the eighteen flags formed an eighteen-sided shape centered around the unfinished building, encompassing most of the surrounding zombies.

The reason Chu Xuan had Old Zheng and the others stay on the rooftop was to keep attracting zombies, preventing them from wandering aimlessly.

After finishing, Chu Xuan returned to the rooftop.

Old Zheng and the others were chewing on protein energy bars with water.

Seeing Chu Xuan return, they quickly stood up.

"Come with me, one at a time."

Chu Xuan grabbed Old Zheng, ready to leave.

His flying artifact could only carry one extra person.

The two men instinctively stepped forward, wanting to shield Old Zheng.

After all, their orders were to ensure Old Zheng's absolute safety.

But Old Zheng stopped them just in time, giving them a meaningful look.

Only then did the two realize something and quickly held back.

With Chu Xuan's strength, killing them would be as easy as lifting a finger.

But Chu Xuan was still keeping his promise to take them away.

At this point, if they dared to show distrust towards Chu Xuan, wouldn't that anger him?

"Young friend, I'll go with you," Old Zheng said with a smile.

Chu Xuan smirked.

With his wisdom, he naturally saw through the hidden meaning in Old Zheng's actions.

But he didn't point it out.

The three had helped him attract so many zombies, and he was in a good mood.

Keeping his promise to help them leave was the right thing to do.

Soon, Chu Xuan had taken the three away from the unfinished building, placing them in a nearby open square.

"Contact your rescue team yourselves, I have other matters to attend to."

Chu Xuan waved his hand, signaling them to leave.

"Thank you." Old Zheng bowed to him and couldn't help but ask, "May I know your name?"

"Chu Xuan."

"Thank you, young friend Chu Xuan. I, Zheng Baoshan, will always remember your life-saving grace today."

Old Zheng bowed again, then left under the protection of Zhuang Qiang and Sun Meng.@@novelbin@@
