Zombies: Cultivating Immortality at Maoshan, Becoming Stronger by Doing Nothing

Chapter 767

He originally thought he could easily deal with Ling Yanyan, but unexpectedly he ended up in a dangerous situation.

"Boy, stop standing there, run! If we delay any longer, we won't be able to leave." Seeing Ling Yanyan standing there in a daze, the red-robed old man urged him.

Ling Yanyan snapped out of his daze, looked at the red-robed elder, and asked, "Senior, what do we do now?"

"Let's find a quiet place to heal our injuries first." The red-robed elder pondered for a moment and said, "This Fire Cloud Lion is very powerful and not suitable for fighting alone. Otherwise, we will definitely suffer losses. I suggest we leave this place as soon as possible."

"Mm." Ling Yanyan nodded, and then the two of them sped off, searching for a relatively secluded valley.

After entering the valley, the old man in red robes stopped, glanced at Ling Yanyan, and said, "This place should be relatively safe. I need to recuperate. You will protect me."

"Okay." Ling Yanyan nodded, took out a few medicinal herbs, and prepared to refine pills.

"Buzz!"

Ling Yanyan had barely sat down when a clear notification sound rang in his mind: "Congratulations, host, on advancing to the ninth level of Qi Refining Realm and gaining 1000 contribution points."

"Hmm?" Ling Yanyan was slightly taken aback when he heard the system notification.

When did I break through to the ninth level of Qi Refining?

However, this also made Ling Yanyan ecstatic.

During this period, Ling Yanyan had been working hard to break through to the eighth level of Qi Refining Realm as soon as possible. Unexpectedly, he broke through during this seclusion.

"It's like a perfect pillow for someone who's sleepy." Ling Yanyan smiled faintly.

Ling Yanyan then continued refining pills and healing his injuries.

Night fell over the entire area, and all was silent except for the crackling sound of the campfire.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

Suddenly, stars lit up the dark sky, their light so bright it seemed within reach.

Ling Yanyan and the red-robed elder remained seated cross-legged by the campfire. Waves of surging soul energy emanated from the red-robed elder, causing Ling Yanyan to feel a chill run down his spine.

"Crack!"

In a flash, Ling Yanyan opened his eyes, his pupils contracted, and his gaze was fixed on the red-robed old man.

The old man in the red robe grew increasingly weak, as if he were on his deathbed.

"Oops!"

Sensing that the old man in red robes was in bad shape, Ling Yanyan frowned. He could feel that the old man's aura was rapidly weakening.

This situation indicates that the old man in the red robe is nearing his end!

Sure enough, in just a short while, the old man in the red robe turned ashen-yellow, and his eyes were filled with despair and resentment.

Finally, under Ling Yanyan's astonished gaze, the red-robed elder's body slowly slumped to the ground, his eyes wide open, dying with unfinished business.

A dignified sixth-grade weapon refiner died just like that.

"Phew!" Ling Yan Yan let out a long sigh and murmured, "I never thought I would actually kill a sixth-grade weapon refiner!"

"No matter what, I've finally gotten my revenge." Ling Yanyan gritted his teeth inwardly.

"Huh, a storage ring?" Suddenly, Ling Yanyan seemed to have discovered something and quickly went over to investigate.

In the red-robed old man's arms, Ling Yanyan touched an ancient ring. This ancient ring was engraved with many exquisite patterns and looked quite weathered.

"Shh!"

Immediately, Ling Yanyan took out the ancient-looking ring and examined it carefully. After a moment, a look of shock appeared on his face, and he blurted out, "It's actually a storage ring?"

Ling Yanyan was once a Martial Apprentice and was very familiar with the value of storage rings. It was said that storage rings had many special uses, such as collecting treasures, storing items, and many other functions…

Each storage ring is extremely precious and expensive; you can even buy rare spiritual herbs and flowers with them.

"As expected of a sixth-grade weapon refiner, he actually has a storage ring." Ling Yanyan said excitedly, then put the storage ring on his right index finger and tried to bind it to his owner with a drop of blood.

"Buzz!" However, to Ling Yan Yan's disappointment, the storage ring could not recognize its owner at all.

"How could this be?" Ling Yanyan frowned and tried dripping a few more drops of his essence blood, but the result was still the same, with no reaction whatsoever.
