Li Qing was too lazy to talk nonsense with this Corpse Demon. This was meaningless at all. In his eyes, this Corpse Demon was no different from a demonic beast.

He took out the Ancient God Golden Saber and charged forward.

Boom!

With a single slash, he instantly killed an iron corpse.

“You’re courting death!” The Corpse Demon was furious and immediately commanded the zombies under his command to attack Li Qing.

More than a dozen pitch-black metal corpses, coupled with the endless stream of rotten corpses crawling out from underground, all rushed towards Li Qing.

Li Qing was not afraid at all. He continuously brandished his golden saber, opening and closing it. The saber Qi spread out and shredded these zombies. In a moment, they were all annihilated.

“Not good, this brat is so powerful!” Seeing this scene, the Corpse Demon’s expression changed drastically. He immediately flew back into the sarcophagus, wanting to sink into the ground and escape again.

“Where can I escape?” Li Qing stretched out his big hand and grabbed the sarcophagus. He pulled it up from underground and opened the lid with a palm.

Hu–

This Corpse Demon spat out a mouthful of jade green poisonous gas. Li Qing had long been on guard against this move of his. With a flash, he easily dodged and grabbed the Corpse Demon’s neck from behind.

To Li Qing’s surprise, this Corpse Demon’s physical strength was unexpectedly extraordinary. He forcefully struggled to get rid of Li Qing’s control.

“Eh, this Corpse Demon’s strength isn’t that good, but its physical body is quite tyrannical.” Li Qing was a little surprised. He looked at his palm and saw that it was already stained with a layer of dark green. This was a sign of poisoning. Clearly, the Corpse Demon’s body also had corpse poison on its surface.

“Human, you’ve been poisoned by a corpse. You’re doomed. No one can save you!” The Corpse Demon’s face was ferocious.

“How can a mere corpse poison do anything to me?” Li Qing chuckled and the purple color in his palm flashed. In the blink of an eye, the jade green color disappeared and returned to normal.

He had consumed the Immortal Spirit Flower and was invulnerable to all poisons. Moreover, he had the True Body of Myriad Demons. What he wasn’t afraid of the most was poison.

“In front of me, you can’t escape. Be obedient and surrender!” Li Qing rushed forward.

“Damn human, you want to capture me alive just by yourself? I’ll fight you!” Facing the life and death crisis, this Corpse Demon didn’t have the slightest bit of fear and fought Li Qing with all his might.

“What a ferocious personality!” Li Qing thought to himself.

After fighting for a long time, he realized that he couldn’t capture the Corpse Demon alive, so he could only slash it in half with a single blade.

“I’ve heard for a long time that Corpse Demons are mostly brutal and unafraid of death. Today, I saw them like this.” Li Qing shook his head. Originally, he had wanted to capture this Corpse Demon alive and ask for some information, but now, it seemed that this method was useless.

This Corpse Demon’s strength wasn’t that strong, it could only take a few moves in Li Qing’s hands. The people buried in this outer region probably weren’t much stronger. Moreover, it only had a dozen or so iron corpses under its command, so it could not pose any threat to Li Qing.

In the Corpse Dao, the lowest level was a rotten corpse, with little combat power. Upwards, there were metal corpses, copper corpses, silver corpses, and gold corpses.

Rumor has it that golden corpses can fly to the heavens and escape the earth. They are invulnerable to swords and spears. Diamonds are not bad. Their strength is even stronger than the tenth level of the Xiantian realm, but they are slightly weaker than Void realm experts.

These zombies were inanimate, similar to a puppet. As long as they weren’t destroyed, they could continue to fight. The twelve capital Empyrean Gods and Devils that Li Qing had encountered before were extremely hard. They were zombies refined from the corpses of Dao Realm experts. They could be said to be immortal.

Actually, what made Li Qing feel strange was the Corpse Demon, a special creature. This was the first time he had seen a Corpse Demon. Apart from its abominable appearance, it didn’t seem to have much power.

‘”After an expert dies, he turns into a corpse demon. His body is still that body, but his consciousness is not. Is this a continuation of his life?” Li Qing thought to himself.

Countless people had already thought about this question. Was the Corpse Demon another kind of continuation of life?

Suppose there was a Corpse Demon that inherited all the memories, personalities, etc. of the deceased and perfectly replicated everything about him, would it still be considered him?

Perhaps there will never be an answer to this question. Different people have different views.

If you believe, there is; if you do not believe, there is none.

In the eyes of most people in the world, even if the Corpse Demon had inherited everything that the deceased had before he died, including his body, memories, personality, and so on, it was no longer him, because his soul was no longer the same as before.

However, there were still a few people who firmly believed that turning into a Corpse Demon after death could be considered a continuation of life! The Corpse Demon’s existence was actually to live out another true self!

The stronger the human, the longer the old monster lived, the more afraid they were of death, so they believed in these illusory things even more.

This could be considered the charm of the Corpse Dao. Being able to produce new intelligence was barely related to longevity.

On the path of longevity, countless powerful ancestors with extraordinary talent had tried countless methods, and the Corpse Dao was one of them.

…

Although killing this Corpse Demon was extremely easy, Li Qing did not underestimate the Corpse Demon’s strength. This was only the outermost region. It was nothing. The real danger was in the depths of the swamp.

Li Qing continued to walk inside. Not long after, he encountered another Corpse Demon and rushed towards Li Qing with a group of zombies. There was a bronze corpse amongst them.

However, this was still not enough and was easily solved by Li Qing. The bronze corpse’s defense was a little stronger, but its movements were actually very clumsy and didn’t cause much trouble.

“Even bronze corpses have such powerful defenses. I wonder how powerful silver corpses and gold corpses are!” Li Qing thought to himself.

This Corpse Demon would rather die than surrender and fight to the end. Li Qing could not capture it alive, so he could only kill it.

Li Qing pushed forward layer upon layer. The more he walked inside, the more dangerous it would be. The Corpse Demon he encountered was even more powerful. He even encountered a silver corpse. Its defense was indeed extremely terrifying. Using the Ancient God Golden Saber, it would take a long time to cut it to death.

He had never encountered a golden corpse before, and he didn’t know if this kind of zombie was too difficult to refine or the number of zombies was too small. After all, this kind of zombie was powerful, and even the tenth level of the Xiantian realm was no match for the golden corpse.

Presumably, with the Golden Corpse’s terrifying defensive power, even the tenth level of the Xiantian realm would not be able to break through its defenses. However, since Li Qing possessed the Heavenly Saber, he wanted to see if its defense could withstand his saber.

As time passed, he still couldn’t enter the depths of the swamp. The urgency in Li Qing’s heart grew stronger and stronger. “After such a long time, I believe that Void Realm experts should be catching up soon! I don’t have much time left.”

The Corpse God Burial Ground was several thousand li in radius. It was neither big nor small. To powerful Void Realm experts, this range was nothing.

The dangers along the way definitely wouldn’t cause any trouble for Void Realm experts. They could push it horizontally, unlike Li Qing, who was walking so hard.

It was mainly because the Everglades covered Li Qing’s tracks. It would take some time to find his location, so after such a long time, they still hadn’t caught up.

Li Qing’s heart skipped a beat and he quickened his pace, ignoring the ordinary zombies he encountered, unless he was really in danger.

Relying on his tyrannical defense and his invulnerable physique, he managed to cross a very long distance. Some Corpse Demons hadn’t even noticed Li Qing when they were directly rushed over by him and couldn’t catch up with him.

After walking deeper for half a day, Li Qing successfully reached the depths of the swamp. He continued forward to reach the Graveyard of the Corpse God at the center.

Li Qing raised his head and looked into the depths. He could even see a part of the Graveyard of the Corpse God.

“Is this the Graveyard of the Corpse God?” He took a deep breath and suppressed the nervousness in his heart. Facing the famous Eastern Region Jedi, with his mind, he was also a little uneasy.

“So many terrifying existences!” His face was slightly pale, and strands of terrifying aura were hidden in the Graveyard of the Corpse God, causing him to be unable to breathe.

Any one of these terrifying existences could crush Li Qing to death.

“These terrifying existences were earth-shattering figures …” Li Qing recalled some secrets about the Graveyard of the Corpse God.

As for the origin of the Corpse God Burial Ground, it was clearly recorded in the ancient records, so Li Qing had once understood it. He knew that the terrifying existence inside wasn’t created out of thin air, but was buried from the outside world.

The Corpse God Burial Ground was created by the Corpse God Sect tens of thousands of years ago. In fact, the Corpse God Burial Ground wasn’t like this in the beginning.

The Corpse God Sect originally planned to build a unique cemetery in the world! It would be the largest, most mysterious, and most powerful cemetery in the world!

They had great ambitions, wanting to use this cemetery to bury the entire world!

Buried all over the world, just hearing this word was already extremely shocking. The plan was so grand that it was simply stunning.

Unfortunately, this goal seemed somewhat unrealistic. Not to mention burying the entire world, even burying the Eastern Region was impossible. In the end, the Corpse God Sect was on the verge of failure and was completely destroyed.

For some reason, although this grand plan had failed, it had created this unique Graveyard of the Corpse God by coincidence.

Perhaps even the Corpse God Sect of the past did not understand why they had created such a miraculous burial ground.

Perhaps this was the fortune of heaven and earth!

The reason why this burial ground was so special was because it possessed a very miraculous ability, and that was … the corpse buried in the Graveyard of the Corpse God had a high chance of producing new intelligence!

What did this mean?

Sounds like nothing special. But in reality, the attraction of the Corpse God Burial Ground was beyond the imagination of the world.

Especially for some powerful characters!

One had to know that the Corpse Demon was the most special existence in the world, something that was between life and death. This kind of thing is very difficult to produce, often requires a variety of conditions and coincidences in order to succeed.

Moreover, he needed luck!

However, the Corpse God Burial Ground did not require these conditions. As long as the corpse was buried, there was a high chance that a new intelligence would be born.

It was precisely because of this that many experts who had lived for a long time in this world wanted to bury themselves in the Graveyard of the Corpse God when they were about to die. This way, new intelligence could be born in the future.

Although this new intelligence might not necessarily be his true self, it was still better than being completely annihilated without leaving any traces behind.
