Chapter 357: Catching Zombies! Internal Strife in the Moon Holding Sect (Part 1)
Chapter 357: Catching Zombies! Internal Strife in the Moon Holding Sect (Part 1)
For instance, the previous method of using the seventh realm to attack the nest.
With a little cost and benefit, it's not impossible to use the eighth realm to attack the nest as well.
Especially for zombies, which don't know any spells. Although they are fast, they rely solely on brute force. Predicting their movements and restraining them isn't difficult.
However, once they are driven into the nest, it's like feeding meat to a dog, never to be seen again.
After fishing for so long, He Qiang has naturally gained some understanding of his Multiverse Fishing System.
In short, as long as the fishing hook enters the water...
Then, his fishing hook will transform into a 'Concept Fishing Hook'.
Regardless of the type of water, once it enters, it will instantly appear in a certain place within the multiverse! He has no control over where it will appear.
But...
The bait, however, is controllable.
Moreover, the higher the grade of the bait, the stronger its attraction.
He Qiang even discovered that the 'world' where the fishing hook appears has a subtle connection with the bait.
For example, using a cultivator as bait will likely lead to a world related to cultivation.
Something related to zombies?
Perhaps it would be a world filled with demons and monsters? In such a world, an eighth-realm zombie would be a hot commodity.
Once inside, it would be instantly snatched up.
Not only would the zombie be lost, but he would also have to work hard at fishing, trying to reel in whatever was hooked...
And this would undoubtedly risk exposing his secret.
Furthermore, when Xu Buque is fully focused on fishing, would he just stand there and watch?
If he were to make a move, how could he defend himself?
Tie them up without casting the line?
"That's not a good idea."
He could tie them up, and not casting the line is also an option.
With his current cultivation and strength, even with cheats, tying up eight zombies is already a challenge, and he can't maintain it for long.
Like right now.
The fishing net seems solid, but in reality, it can't hold for much longer.
If he doesn't quickly come up with a solution...
...
For a moment, the situation was awkward.
He Qiang 'self-sealed' himself to think of a solution.
Xian Lao Zhe berated Xu Buque, causing his face to change colors repeatedly, making him feel embarrassed. He was also thinking about a solution while controlling the eight zombies to attack the 'fishing net' with all their might.
It seemed like neither side had a good plan.
"Damn it, what should we do?"
"Or... should we just attack them all and forget about it?"
"But the Eight Treasures Chicken and Eight Treasures Duck are so delicious, and Zhu Shixiong guards them closely. Unless it's a special occasion, he doesn't let us eat them freely, saying that we need to breed more..."
"Damn it, what should we do?"
He Qiang felt like cursing.
"If nothing else works, I'll take out two treasures I caught and blow them up."
"Although these zombies are strong, they probably can't withstand my treasures, right?"
"If I control it more precisely and only blow off an arm or a leg, it shouldn't affect the 'breeding' process, right?"
"I really can't understand why Zhu Shixiong is so protective of them."
He smiled helplessly, finding it truly absurd.
What if they go out of control and bite those spiritual beasts, turning the entire spiritual beast garden into a zombie zoo?
"Pfft, I'm thinking too far ahead."
"I can't defend for long, so if nothing else works..."
He opened his Storage Bag and searched, intending to take out a treasure. Suddenly, his peripheral vision caught a glimpse of a copper-green object.
He turned and saw the bronze casket he had been carrying...
"What would happen if I used this to hit someone?"
"..."
"Let's give it a try."
He raised his eyebrows.
Since there was no perfect solution at the moment, he might as well try.
His eyes and hands moved swiftly.
Predicting the attack trajectory and position of an eighth-realm cultivator is challenging, especially for He Qiang, who is at the fifth realm.
However, predicting the attack of an eighth-realm zombie is simple.
These zombies basically have no 'technique'; they attack straightforwardly, relying solely on their robust physical qualities.
"I'll smash it!"
With a low shout, he shook the fishing rod.
Whoosh!
The fishing line extended and transformed, and the fishing net automatically 'opened' a hole.
"Hmm?"
Xu Buque's eyebrows shot up, "Now's the time!"
Although he didn't know what He Qiang was up to, he had to seize any opportunity.
In addition to the zombie already attacking the gap, he specifically assigned two more zombies to rush into the gap and suppress He Qiang.
He was even prepared to sacrifice one zombie.
"Although these zombies are painstakingly cultivated with great effort and vast amounts of heavenly materials and treasures, and I cherish them dearly, if I can use one to slap Long Ao Jiao's face, it's worth it!"
"It's in!"
Xu Buque was overjoyed.
Under his watchful eyes, the zombie that was already attacking the gap had its upper body inside the 'fishing net', just one step away from He Qiang! Two more zombies followed closely behind.
But at that moment, the bronze casket moved.
It was swung and smashed towards the zombie.
"Roar!"
The zombie, excited by the scent of blood, bared its fangs, ready to bite. But suddenly, it showed a human-like expression of surprise.
Its pupils shrank, and its face was filled with fear.
Initially, it had been excited, its expression fierce, but now it was shocked and terrified, and...
Boom!!!
The bronze casket smashed down.
To onlookers, it didn't seem like the bronze casket was smashing into the zombie; instead, the zombie seemed to be headbutting the casket.
The first part of the coffin that collided was not its head but a pair of fangs!
Its intention was to swallow He Qiang in one gulp, so its mouth gaped wide and stretched forward, but unfortunately, it missed its neck. Instead, the bronze coffin managed to bite into something else.
Crack!
Crack!
The fangs snapped one after another.
The zombie's lips trembled violently.
Then, the coffin smashed down on its lips, and at the eighth level of zombie strength, its 'iron jaw'...
Boom!
Finally, a booming sound reverberated.
The coffin trembled slightly.
But at that moment, it was like a cannonball, suddenly flying backward. And in that instant of contact, its supposedly impenetrable skull had already been smashed into a pulp on one side!
The front half of its head turned into a mess of flesh.
The back of its head and the lower half of its skull remained, but the front half was unrecognizable.
Xu Buque's eyebrows twitched uncontrollably.
Even though he had prepared himself, this loss still pained him deeply.
But now was not the time for hesitation.
"Keep going!"
He clenched his teeth.
The other zombies pounced, but they had learned their lesson. They didn't use their teeth to bite or their heads to ram; instead, they attacked with their sharp claws, attempting to shake the coffin back.
But...
Their claws, so sharp and impenetrable, scratched at the coffin, emitting a strange sound that made one's skin crawl.
Boom!
Finally, a booming sound reverberated.
The coffin trembled slightly.
But at that moment, it was like a cannonball, suddenly flying backward. And in that instant of contact, its supposedly impenetrable skull had already been smashed into a pulp on one side!
The front half of its head turned into a mess of flesh.
The back of its head and the lower half of its skull remained, but the front half was unrecognizable.
Xu Buque's eyebrows twitched uncontrollably.
Even with his preparations, this loss still pained him deeply.
But now was not the time for hesitation.
"Keep going!"
He clenched his teeth.
The remaining zombies swarmed forward, but they had learned their lesson. They didn't use their teeth to bite or their heads to ram; instead, they attacked with their sharp claws, attempting to shake the coffin back.
But...
Their claws, so sharp and impenetrable, scratched at the coffin, emitting a sound that made one's skin crawl.
Boom!
Finally, a booming sound reverberated.
The coffin trembled slightly.

But...
Their claws, so sharp and impenetrable, scratched at the coffin, emitting a sound that made one's skin crawl.
Xu Buque's face darkened.
"How dare you!"
This was clearly a provocation, a sign of disrespect.
Just as he was about to lose his temper, he saw He Qiang leaning out from one side of the coffin, winking and saying, "Can't you get in?"
"If you really can't, it's a waste of time."
"You!!!" Xu Buque's mind went crazy.
How dare he! This was simply outrageous!
"Come on!"
He Qiang gestured with his fingers, "I can tell from your expression that you're not satisfied. So, come on, show me what you've got."
"If you're capable, why don't you kill me?"
"!!!"
Xu Buque's face darkened as he spoke, "Do you think I'll fall for such a simple provocation?"
He Qiang remained silent.
Indeed...
Xu Buque spoke up, "You're really good at reading people."
"Bring it on!"
As he spoke, the seven zombies became even more ferocious, roaring as they attacked furiously.
He Qiang: "???"
What a shock! But if you're going to play like this...
He Qiang aimed carefully and, with a flick of his wrist, used a water-based spell to create a small water ball. Then, he took out a spare fishing rod and, right in front of everyone, started fishing.
He was fishing in the small water ball.
And it was even without bait.
After a brief moment of shock, Xu Buque's face darkened.
"How dare you!"
This was clearly a provocation, a sign of disrespect.
It was simply outrageous!
Just as he was about to lose his temper, he saw He Qiang leaning out from one side of the coffin, winking and saying, "Can't you get in?"
"If you really can't, it's a waste of time."
"You!!!" Xu Buque's mind went crazy.
How dare he! This was simply outrageous!
"Come on!"
He Qiang gestured with his fingers, "I can tell from your expression that you're not satisfied. So, come on, show me what you've got."
"If you're capable, why don't you kill me?"
"!!!"
Xu Buque's face darkened as he spoke, "Do you think I'll fall for such a simple provocation?"
He Qiang remained silent.
Indeed...
Xu Buque spoke up, "You're really good at reading people."
"Bring it on!"
As he spoke, the seven zombies became even more ferocious, roaring as they attacked furiously.
He Qiang: "???"
What a shock! But if you're going to play like this...
He Qiang aimed carefully and, with a flick of his wrist, reeled in the fishing line, lifting the coffin lid back up.
The two zombies had just raised their heads when the coffin lid smashed down on their foreheads.
The bronze coffin closed again, and the fishing line quickly wrapped around it.
"Thud, thud, thud!"
The inside of the coffin shook violently, and it was clear that the two zombies were struggling, banging against the inside.
However, the fishing line was tightly bound, and for a brief moment, they couldn't break free.
At the same time, He Qiang was also not idle, rummaging through his storage bag and finally taking out a yellow talisman.
"Pfft!"
He spat out a mouthful of saliva and slapped the talisman onto the coffin.
The coffin's trembling instantly disappeared.
"Huh?"
"It really is a Zombie Sealing Talisman?"
He Qiang himself was a little surprised.
This was something he had fished out before.
He had fished up a corpse with this talisman stuck to its forehead.
He found the corpse inauspicious, but seeing that the talisman had some value, he tore it off and kept it, while the corpse was thrown back where it came from.
It was just a momentary whim, and he didn't know what this talisman was for.
Now it seems...
No problem.
"I'm indeed clever, my initial choice was right."
"..."
Xu Buque was speechless.
At this moment, he suddenly lost contact with the two precious zombies and could no longer sense their existence.
"How, how could this be?!"
His scalp went numb: "What the hell??"
"What did you do?!"
His divine sense swept over, and his expression changed abruptly: "Zombie Sealing Talisman? No, I've never seen this kind of Zombie Sealing Talisman before. Where did you get this from? And even if it is a Zombie Sealing Talisman, it shouldn't be so shocking. My zombies have undergone special refinement, they're not afraid of talismans!!!"
"Hey, how would I know?"
He Qiang spread his hands: "But if you ask me where it's from, I can only say I fished it up."
"You???"
Xu Buque's lips trembled, and he wanted to curse.
Damn it, fishing it up? I don't believe you!
"Give me back my zombies!"
"Nonsense."
He Qiang glared: "We're in a battle, you used zombies to attack me, so I took them. Why should I give them back to you? How big of a fool do you think I am?"
"..."
Down below, countless people nodded in agreement.
"This Xu Buque... is a bit naive."
"People from the Holy Land grow up high above others, and although their strength and talent far surpass ordinary people, it's precisely because of the Holy Land that they live in a greenhouse from a young age, so it's normal to be naive."
"Nonsense! If it were another Holy Land, your words might be considered correct, but who is Xu Buque? He's from the Heaven Demon Palace, the Demon Sect Holy Land! Within, they fight to the death, using all sorts of scheming and plotting, going to extreme lengths!"
"How can a Heaven Demon Palace lineage disciple be naive?"
"Then why did he say that? And 'give it back to him'? Only a fool would do that, wouldn't anyone think of that?"
"Is it possible that Xu Buque isn't very smart, or that he's been flustered?"
"..."
Xu Buque: "..."
Damn!
He realized his mistake.
He was completely off the mark.
But for some reason, he was really angry today, and this sentence, for some reason, came out of his mouth. It really shouldn't have!
Usually...
Is he smart?
Why is he so... stupid today?
What's wrong with him?
"..."
For a moment, he fell silent.
...
"No wonder he's a fisherman, he even has such eccentric things." Within the Moon Holding Sect, Lin Fan was creating a technique while watching the 'live broadcast'. Seeing this, he couldn't help but sigh.
"So, a fisherman can really fish up anything?"
"6!"
"But can zombies really reproduce?"
He didn't know.
But in Uncle Ying's movies, it seemed fine, he clearly remembered a scene where zombies gave birth.
Whether they could be raised or not, it was up to Zhu Rou.
"Zombies are actually quite good if raised properly."
"Of course, as long as they don't go out of control."
Zombies are not weak, and their upper limit is extremely high.
They're just ugly.
But it's not a big problem.
...
"Hey, are you still fighting?"
He Qiang smiled: "If you want to continue, we can."
"If you're not fighting, then concede."
"As for asking me to give back the zombies, don't mention it again. Give them back to you, and then you'll keep attacking me? Am I that stupid?"
"I... you?!"
Xu Buque pointed at He Qiang, his whole body trembling.
At this moment, he felt a sense of dizziness.
Damn it, am I a demon cultivator, and this bastard is even more demonic than me?!
Concede?
Of course, he didn't want to.
But his combat strength, ten parts... let's not say eight parts, at least seven parts are on the zombies.
But now, eight zombies, one half-crippled, two taken away and suppressed, leaving five. Even if he adds himself... he doesn't have a good solution against this bastard.
But if he concedes...
He glanced down, and below, Long Ao Jiao was hugging her arms.
She didn't even look at him.
This disregard...
Xu Buque felt even more powerless.
Damn it.
He didn't even look at me.
Am I really that pathetic?
He was annoyed.
But after a second thought, it seemed fine.
One He Qiang had caused him so much trouble, leaving him helpless. He could be said to have lost both the battle and his soldiers without any results. As for Long Ao Jiao, her strength was definitely far above He Qiang's.
If he really fought her...
"Sigh."
Xu Buque suddenly deflated like a punctured balloon, his spirit and energy exhausted.
Forget it, forget it.
Damn it.
If this continues, it won't be glorious even if I win. Even if I win, I might not receive much applause.
