Ten miles away.

Fifty meters below Old Qing Mountain.

This is an ancient tomb dating back nine hundred years, tracing back to the Song dynasty.

"Blood Spirit Refinement? The owner of this tomb was a Martial Arts Alliance Hierarch of the underworld? Nicknamed... Leader Xun?"

At this moment.

The location of the main burial chamber.

Six grave robbers, with specially-made scarves covering their noses and mouths, were staring at a well-preserved bamboo manuscript.

It was entirely soaked with a special tree sap and sealed within a small jar containing some kind of liquid.

Although the liquid inside had dried up, the bamboo manuscript still looked new, clearly showing the writing on it.

By the light of a kerosene lamp.

Besides seeing the name of the tomb owner, they also noticed this place used to be called 'Cloud Mist Manor'.

Though they didn't know why it had become a mountain now, perhaps this Cloud Mist Manor was built against it.

After all, the name contains 'Mountain'.

So they weren't very curious about this, and instead continued to search for other jars in the flickering light of the burial chamber, hoping to make other discoveries.

And in the center of the tomb, there was a coffin.

At the same time, one young grave robber was chanting spells and attaching 'evil-repelling' talismans above the coffin to prevent 'corpse revival'.

Corpse revival refers to the resurrection of the dead.

"The Yin atmosphere here is too heavy."

The young man attached talismans while observing his surroundings.

His eyes were covered with a layer of gray water, gleaming in the lamplight, and the undulating water made it appear as though his eyeballs shifted, rendering his appearance somewhat eerie.

But aided by the 'Yin Sha Water' gathered by the 'Evil Sight Talisman'.

He could see the Evil Qi wafting in the air.

This Evil Qi slowly congregated, gradually seeping into the coffin.

At this time, another grave robber looked at the young man and curiously asked, "Little Taoist, have you ever seen a thousand-year-old corpse rise?"

"No." The young man was drawing talismans, "And I don't want to."

"Who would want to?" The grave robber shook his head, then asked, "These bodies have been dead for decades or even hundreds of years, how can they come back to life? You specialize in Evil Qi magic; shouldn't you be learning corpse cultivation arts?"

Although the grave robber asked, while others continued searching for other bamboo manuscripts, their ears were all turned toward the young man, wanting to know his response.

Of course, their main attention was on the coffin below the young man's hand.

This was the most dangerous thing within the whole tomb.

As for the traps along the way, most of them were broken.

Since they were all cultivators, they basically broke through them.

At this moment again.

When the young man heard the question about how corpses can be revived, he didn't really want to answer.

He remained silent for a moment.

Only the sound of flipping jars and drawing talismans echoed in the tomb.

Perhaps the atmosphere was too oppressive.

Fearful that these temporary partners might 'isolate' him.

The young man finally broke the silence, saying, "Have you heard of the Corpse Driving Sect?"

During the silence and speaking, he spent another ten minutes drawing a complete 'one-stroke' evil-repelling talisman.

"Of course." Someone replied, "We deal with tombs and corpses all the time, surely we know the Corpse Driving Sect. Sometimes, we even go to them for guidance."

"Corpse Driving Sect?" Another looked at the young man with suspicion, "You handle Yin Sha magic so skillfully, could it be... you were once from the Corpse Driving Sect? And then got kicked out, so you don't want to bring it up?"

"Yes." Seeing the subject opened, the young man didn't hide it, "I used to be."

He spoke and then looked at the coffin, "The revival of corpses seems mysterious to you because you can't use the magic of the Yin Sha Eye to see the Evil Qi in the air. While I can see this Evil Qi. I can see how, through the art of corpse driving, it seems that revived corpses are 'alive,' while actually, my 'fellow sect members' control them with Yin Sha."

However, if Evil Qi stays long in a corpse, it nourishes tiny invisible creatures (various bacteria). They are influenced by the Evil Qi and co-exist with the corpse. Over time, influenced by the Evil Qi, the corpse doesn't rot, and they develop a basic 'intelligence' that only knows how to 'consume.' These tiny creatures merge with the Evil Qi and inhabit the symbiotic corpse. When the Evil Qi manifests spirituality, it finally controls the corpse. This is what you call a zombie."

The young man spoke eloquently, stunning the others into silence.

Meanwhile.

In an adjacent 'side chamber' of the tomb.

Zhang Feng had already brought people there and was listening to his theory.

"This person is quite capable…" Lin Dao You and others marveled, surprised to encounter such a figure among grave robbers?

Though compared to Senior Zhang, he was far lacking, yet he was still much superior to them.

And Zhang Feng, while setting up a Spiritual Qi barrier to prevent the sound from leaking out, was still pondering the young man's words.

As for tomb exploration and treasure hunting, that was left to the professionals in the main burial chamber.

Once they had their fill of the mechanisms, he would go over.

As he contemplated.

Zhang Feng's Spiritual Sense could pierce through the walls, revealing everything within the main burial chamber.

He watched as the grave robbers continued to question the young man, discussing deeper principles of corpse revival.

So Zhang Feng was learning while waiting.

And through the young man's subsequent explanations about corpse driving.

Zhang Feng found he was indeed insightful, not too inferior to a 'Sea Fiend Cultivator.'

It seemed the higher the world, the more talents there were.

Or perhaps they were talented, hence they cultivated to such high levels.

Yet Zhang Feng had also understood about this world's Corpse Driving Sect.

It seemed that if Evil Qi could be seen, then the Corpse Driving Sect members of this world were truly unique.

Creating their own 'Yin Sha Eyes.'

That deserved to be copied, as well as several of his talismans.
