As the Grand Chan Master said, the mountain cave they had dug was only seven to eight meters deep, yet it punctured space and led to the Zombies' station.

After a few steps, they moved through the cave and entered an open space.

The place was gray and gloomy, completely devoid of sunlight, and no one could tell where it specifically was. The heavy presence of evil qi made one dizzy at a mere sniff.

If an ordinary person were to enter, they would probably faint as soon as they took a breath due to the overpowering evil Qi.

"There is a path ahead, if you follow it, it leads to a hut. There is a mechanism inside the hut, and by turning it on, you can get to the room where the Air Bead is," the Grand Chan Master explained.

Everyone walked along the path, they had hardly gone a few steps when all of them abruptly stopped.

The Grand Chan Master's face dramatically changed.

Unexpectedly, seven or eight Zombies appeared on the road ahead.

The appearance of the Zombies was totally unexpected, this road should have been free of Zombies.

It seems that the evil zombie discovered the cave and blocked the entrance with the Bronze Coffin after slaughtering the Dragon Warriors, and some other unfortunate events happened as well.

Among the seven or eight Zombies present, two were Iron corpses, with the rest being ordinary Zombies.

The Zombies weren't strong, but the Grand Chan Master did not take them at all lightly. He immediately had everyone hide to avoid being noticed by the Zombies.

King Qingshan turned to the Grand Chan Master and asked, "Why are there zombies? Didn't you say this road was safe?"

"Well..."

The Grand Chan Master gave a bitter smile upon hearing this, "It seems that something unexpected has happened. According to our plan, there shouldn't have been Zombies on this path."

Red Thread Woman wore a grave expression, "Perhaps it was because the evil zombie happened upon the cave entrance, that's why they specifically sent a horde of Zombies to guard it."

"Lucky there aren't any formidable types among them, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, seven Zombies. With our power, each of us can instantly kill two without any problem. In my opinion, we should just go straight through them and kill them. I'll take on the fierce Iron corpses."

King Qingshan clenched his fists, brimmed with confidence and eager to try, he obviously wanted to move out as soon as the others agreed.

"King Qingshan, please do not act rashly."

Seeing this, the Grand Chan Master quickly stopped King Qingshan.

"What for?"

King Qingshan turned to question with a hint of displeasure in his voice, "With your power, Grand Chan Master, can't you even instantly kill two ordinary Zombies? If that's the case, then just take care of one."

His tone was filled with an obvious hint of mockery.

Grand Chan Master was mocked, but he wasn't angry. He was still patient and pointed at the Zombies, "King Qingshan, do you notice any difference between these Zombies and the ones you've seen before?"

"What is different?"

King Qingshan stared intently.

Xiao Mu did not initially pay attention to it, but after hearing the Grand Chan Master's words, he couldn't help but examine the Zombies ahead.

At this glance, he immediately noticed something different.

Compared to the Zombies he had seen before, these Zombies had red dots on their foreheads that were subtly emitting evil qi.

The evil qi entered the void, seeming to connect to something. It was very peculiar.

This discovery surprised Xiao Mu.

He had never seen such a phenomenon on any Zombies he had encountered before.

"Are you talking about the red dots on the Zombies' heads?"

King Qingshan also noticed the difference and asked the Grand Chan Master.

The Grand Chan Master nodded, "Exactly, these Zombies are not like the regular Zombies you've seen before, they are organized, very much like a human army."

"So what?"

King Qingshan asked in a defiant tone.

Zombies that had been organized were only slightly stronger than regular Zombies, not by much. He didn't think that with the combined strength of their team, they couldn't overcome them.

The Grand Chan Master patiently explained, "King Qingshan, you may not know this, but those red dots are actually left behind by the leading evil zombie using a special method."

"With these evil qi filled red dots, these ordinary Zombies and the leading evil zombie are blood connected, so once these Zombies are killed, the leading evil zombie can sense it immediately."

"Damn it, if we can't kill this, and we can't kill that, we might as well just give up!"

King Qingshan vented his frustration, obviously deflated.

Red Thread Woman frowned at the Zombie Horde for a while, then sighed, "With these Zombies guarding here, there is no way to pass through without alerting them."

She then turned to the Grand Chan Master, "Master, is there another route?"

The Grand Chan Master shook his head, saying rather dispiritedly, "We only explored this one route beforehand."

"Obviously, we can't take this route."

Red Thread Woman said, "If we want to continue forward, we have to avoid this horde of Zombies and look for a new route."

"Master, do you know of any other routes besides this one?"

The Grand Chan Master replied, "I do know of other routes, but based on previous explorations, all those routes are guarded by Zombies and are much farther. We would need to detour a long distance."

Having said that, he gave a bitter smile, "This is the closest route to the room where the Air Bead is stored. If we choose another path, it will take at least half an hour longer."

"Even if it takes half an hour longer, it is better than being discovered by the zombies."

Determine, Red Thread Woman gave her reply, "Let's go, we need to check the other routes."

She urged the Grand Chan Master and was preparing to take the other routes.

"Red Thread Woman."

King Qingshan called out to her, about to burst her anticipation, "Don't say I didn't warn you beforehand. The Grand Chan Master mentioned a half an hour extra, that's assuming there aren't any Zombies on the way."

"In fact, the other routes are also guarded by Zombies. Detouring will just be a waste of time, apart from us getting extra exercise, there is no real meaning."

Red Thread Woman retorted unhappily, "So according to you, we just sit here and do nothing?"

"Ha ha! I didn't mean that we should do nothing."

King Qingshan replied calmly, "What I meant was, instead of making a useless detour, we should stay here, think up a way to cross without alarming these Zombies."

"Do you have a plan?"

Red Thread Woman questioned him coldly.

King Qingshan was stumped on the spot.

Although he suggested not making a detour, he didn't have any plan in mind.

He turned to look at the Grand Chan Master.

The Grand Chan Master had an expression of helplessness, he didn't have any plans either, just like King Qingshan.

"Everyone, I might have a solution."

Unalike the others, Xiao Mu had been observing the terrain ahead. Noticing the ground beneath the Zombies' feet, he got an idea and spoke up.

King Qingshan said, "Old Mu, detours are not going to work."

"No need for detours."

Xiao Mu shook his head, "What I mean is, I might have a way for us to cross from this path."

"Mr. Mu, do you have a solution?"

The Grand Chan Master immediately looked hopeful upon hearing this.

"You have a solution, tell us quickly!"

Red Thread Woman excitedly urged.

"Old Mu, what plan do you have?"

King Qingshan also looked surprised and turned his gaze to Xiao Mu.

Xiao Mu nodded his head, stating uncertainly, "It's just a possible solution, even I'm not completely confident about it. But we can give it a shot."

"Even if it's just a trial, it's better than having no plan at all. Mr. Mu, can you tell us what your solution is?"

The Grand Chan Master hurriedly asked.
