Martial Arts? Sorry, I am better at Thunder Spell!

Chapter 88: 089 Rest assured, the Zombie will protect you! (5th update! Asking for subscriptions! Votes for the month!)

At the foot of Qingyun Mountain.

Hundreds of tourists gathered here, craning their necks to watch the excitement.

As for what excitement.

Every two minutes, a person dressed in red would bring tourists from the mountaintop to experience extreme bungee jumping.

They would jump directly off the mountain summit.

What?

...

You’re asking how extreme it is?

It’s pretty much the kind where both the person in red and the tourist don’t wear safety ropes.

…

Meanwhile, someone had already filmed this scene and uploaded it onto the internet.

With that, news about Qingyun Mountain quickly surged to the top of the trending searches online.

“#After the Ziyang City Zombie incident, where did all those zombies go?”

“#Taoist priests bring zombies back to Qingyun Mountain but staunchly deny it, insisting they’re volunteers.”

“#Confirmed, a large group of masked volunteers spotted on the paths of Qingyun Mountain, hard to believe they are not zombies!”

“#Qingyun Mountain’s new gimmick, numerous zombie tour guides warmly explaining the scenic areas of Qingyun Mountain, with strong immersion, I’m already shaking from the beauty!”

“#Red volunteers appear on the mid-mountain of Qingyun Mountain, introducing a new concept of downhill cableway! Just fifty yuan, and you can experience the thrill of descending from the summit!”

“#How does it feel to go from the summit to the foot of Qingyun Mountain in five seconds?”

“#The identity of the Red Flying Messenger porter revealed! Is that really a porter? That’s a damn Flying Zombie!!”

…

Each trending topic had hundreds of thousands of netizen comments.

“Damn! Zombies brought back to Qingyun Mountain? The Taoist priests are awesome! I was wondering why there were no follow-up reports about the zombies in Ziyang City, turns out the Taoist priests took them all.”

“As a citizen of Longguang City, I’m suddenly feeling anxious! The zombies were originally in Ziyang City but now the priests have brought them all back to Longguang City, will those zombies come out and bite me at night?”

“Relax, the zombies are in Qingyun Mountain, do you think the Taoist priests will let them run wild? They must have overwhelming strength to dare do this! Haven’t you seen those zombies sweeping the mountains, serving as guides, and porters, all wearing masks?

Now you can’t call them zombies anymore, go back a few decades, and you’d have to call them comrades!”

“God damn comrades, haha! But you’re right, not a single zombie can leave Qingyun Mountain alive, so citizens of Longguang City can rest easy, with the Heavenly Master in charge, what’s there to fear?”

“Guys, have you seen the video of the Red Flying Messenger porter? Isn’t that too thrilling, I just want to know how they do it? There’s not a single safety rope or lifting device on them, how do they jump down and fly back up? That’s unscientific!”

“The principle is actually very simple, is there a possibility that the person in red is actually not human, and if it’s called a Flying Zombie, would everything make sense?”

“Crap! That’s true! No wonder they can fly and jump, turns out, these damn porters are Flying Zombies!”

“My mind is blown, the Taoist priests have turned the legendary Flying Zombies into porters to earn yuan? That’s fucking impressive, like letting awesomeness open the door—it has reached home!”

“The Taoist priests sure know how to play! Even Uncle Jiu wouldn’t dare try this while he was alive!”

“I don’t care about how awesome it is, I just want to know, is this Red Flying Messenger porter service safe? It won’t result in death, right?”

“Don’t worry, the zombies will protect you!”

“666666! I thought it was pretty safe initially, but after reading your comment, I’m suddenly more scared, being protected by zombies sounds damn sinister!”

…

On the trending search list.

It’s no longer just the top ten.

The top twenty have now all been taken over by Qingyun Mountain.

Stars and idols from Dragon Country.

During the past few years of the pandemic, they didn’t get much exposure and barely made any money.

Now that the pandemic is easing.

They want to gain some exposure for themselves and buy a few trending spots.

But they found out that times have changed.

They can’t even buy a spot on the trending list now.

Even if they spend the money.

The officials at Weibo can’t control their own trending list right now.

There’s no way, Qingyun Mountain’s popularity is too high right now.

It’s even surpassing real-world events.

Just think about it, in the past, a star walking the red carpet could make the first spot on the trending list just for their clothing.

An idol eating an apple and saying how sweet it is could shoot up the trending chart.

But back then, no one else was a match.

Now it’s different.

What’s happening at Qingyun Mountain?

Stuff like Heavenly Masters, Thunder Spell, Immortal Crane, Sword Control, ghost killing, duels…

And now even damn zombies are showing up.

They’re even struggling to make do, with Flying Zombies performing.

What can these stars use to get on the trending list?

They should be grateful if they can even squeeze into the top fifty.

There’s nothing they can do, they can only stare blankly.

Their era has passed.

It’s now the era of Qingyun Mountain Taoist boy bands.

…

Qin Hao in the mountain below.

He did not know about these events.

He was now in Heavenly Master Mansion, looking at the body of the Corpse King that had died.

No one knew that after Qin Hao had finished off the Corpse King.

He had brought back the body of the Wind Ba to the Heavenly Master Mansion.

At the same time, the system notification rang in his ear.

“Ding! New mission released: Refine the Corpse King to create a top-tier Puppet enforcer! Complete the mission to receive rewards: [Innate Chaotic Dao Body]![Sword Control and Light Splitting Technique]![Golden Core Dao Fetus Breath]! +200,000 Incense Value!”

The system meant for him to refine this Wind Ba Corpse King into his Puppet.

By doing so, it would mean that he’d have one more top-tier enforcer by his side.

Qin Hao pondered for a moment.

Hmm!

A Ba Corpse grade enforcer.

That’s equivalent to a mid- to late-stage Cultivator among human cultivators.

Especially this Ba Corpse, which had cultivated Gang Wind.

Part of the highest tier in combat capabilities.

Turning it into a Puppet would indeed be great.

And with so many rewards available.

This mission is too good not to do!

Qin Hao opened the Incense Value Mall, starting to look in the Puppet section.

He needed to find a secret technique that could turn a zombie corpse into a Puppet.

In no time, he purchased a copy of “Demon Puppet Secret Technique”.

It cost him a full 100,000 Incense Value.

But compared to spending 100,000 Incense Value, Qin Hao would get a top-tier enforcer that was completely loyal to him and could continue to cultivate in the future.

It wasn’t a loss.

Moreover, completing the mission would reward him with a bunch of things and an additional 200,000 Incense Value.

No matter how he calculated it, he was making a killing!

Inside Heavenly Master Mansion.

Qin Hao retrieved the Demon Puppet Secret Technique.

Following the methods in the secret technique, he started refining the Corpse King into a Puppet.

This process took Qin Hao a full three months.

During these three months, Qin Hao stayed inside Heavenly Master Mansion, leading a reclusive life.

Other than his daily cultivation, he was focused on refining the Corpse King.

Finally, on this day.

The sky above Heavenly Master Mansion changed dramatically.

Billowing Corpse Qi swept across the heavens.

The Corpse Qi turned into dark clouds, shrouding the top of Qingyun Mountain.

Qin Hao stood opposite the body of the Wind Ba Corpse King.

With a gentle point of his finger, he touched the Corpse King’s forehead.

“Open!”

As Qin Hao spoke.

A Golden Light entered the body of the Corpse King.

The next second, the eyes of the Wind Ba Corpse King slowly opened.

A pair of golden pupils looked at Qin Hao before them.

Respectful and devout.

Qin Hao looked at the first Puppet he had personally refined.

This Ba Corpse.

Cultivated the Gang Wind Tao, a Gang Wind attribute Corpse King.

Yuan Mei’s “Continuation of Subtle Words” mentions, “The Corpse first transforms into Han Ba, then transforms into a Hou!”

Qin Hao immediately said, “From today on, you will be called Wind Hou!”

The Corpse King nodded respectfully, “Yes!”
