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

Chapter 769

"Hehe, of course I'm dead," the stone statue shook its head and laughed.

"Uh!" Ling Yanyan was dumbfounded. He had originally planned to use the power of the stone statue to escape, but he didn't expect that the old man in red robes was already dead!

"My body is exhausted and my flesh is destroyed, leaving only my soul power. Fortunately, this body contains a trace of my ancestral bloodline. Unfortunately, my soul power has been completely depleted and I cannot maintain this body for long. I must leave immediately," the red-robed elder said.

"This!" Ling Yanyan was stunned for a moment before realizing why the stone statue hadn't appeared earlier; it turned out it was already in a remnant soul state.

"Little one, quickly protect me! After I possess your body and am reborn, I will surely reward you handsomely," the red-robed elder said urgently, his voice weak.

"Please rest assured, senior, I guarantee to protect your safety," Ling Yanyan said solemnly, then sat cross-legged next to the stone statue.

"Little guy, are you really willing to protect me?" The stone statue was somewhat taken aback, not expecting Ling Yanyan to agree so readily.

Ling Yanyan nodded seriously: "Of course."

"Hehe, I'm relieved to hear that," the red-robed elder chuckled, then his soul transformed into a wisp of light and entered the stone statue, disappearing from sight.

The next instant, Ling Yanyan clearly felt the surrounding space suddenly tremble.

"Boom!"

The stone statue radiated a dazzling light, and then slowly opened its eyes, revealing a gleam of light.

"Little guy, thank you this time. Otherwise, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to wait until today." The stone statue smiled faintly at Ling Yanyan, then took a step and instantly appeared outside the stone chamber.

"Buzz!" The stone statue emitted an incomparably powerful aura, as if a peerless war god had descended.

This is the power of the Innate Martial Master realm!

"Whoosh!" The stone statue lightly struck out with its palm, unleashing a surge of powerful Yuan energy that roared and carried the force to destroy everything as it hurtled toward a towering ancient tree in the distance.

In an instant, the stone statue unleashed a series of fierce and merciless attacks on the towering ancient tree, instantly causing a monstrous wave. The violent and unparalleled energy ripples rolled and raged like a tsunami, leveling an area within a hundred feet in radius.

"Gulp." Ling Yanyan's eyes widened, his throat bobbed, and he couldn't help but swallow.

terrible!

With just one move, it could cause such great destruction. How terrifying must the stone statue be?

The stone statue withdrew its arm, looked at Ling Yanyan, and said, "Boy, I have now recovered and can teach you a secret technique. I hope you will study it diligently."

"Thank you for your guidance, senior!" Ling Yanyan said respectfully.

"Step back." The stone statue waved its hand and then walked out of the stone house.

"Shh!"

Ling Yan Yan left the stone house, wondering to himself, "Just who is this senior?"

Ling Yanyan became increasingly puzzled. He was certain that the red-robed elder could not possibly have survived until now, given that countless years had passed since his death.

For some reason, Ling Yanyan felt that the old man in red robes was familiar, as if he had seen him before.

Unfortunately, no matter how hard Ling Yanyan tried, he couldn't remember.

A moment later, the stone statue turned and walked into the stone house, holding a jade pendant and a ring in its hand.

"You should first bind these two items with your blood." The stone statue handed the jade pendant to Ling Yanyan.

"Hmm?" Ling Yanyan was surprised. These two items were treasures, extremely valuable, and Ling Yanyan hesitated.

The stone statue said in a deep voice, "This jade pendant is what I found in the ancient tomb. It is a relic left to me by a senior. Although it is not very useful, it will be of great help to you. As for that ring, it was my storage ring back then. You can use it after you signify it with your blood."

Upon hearing this, Ling Yanyan nodded and reached out to take the two precious items.

"Ling Yan Yan, you should go back and cultivate first. I need to recuperate for a while. Once I've recovered some strength, I'll send you out," Ling Yun said. Then, the stone statue slowly flew up and headed towards Ling Yun's cave.

"call out!"

Suddenly, a dazzling sword beam ripped through the sky, shooting towards us with lightning speed.
