Chapter 116 – Tenth wave of zombies

Chapter 116 – Tenth wave of zombies

During the brief rest period, everyone took a look at the spoils from the thousands of Soul Burial Mounds just now.

Unfortunately, even on Hell difficulty, less than three hundred of the thousands of Soul Burial Mounds dropped equipment, and the rest only had a few Spirit Stones or, worse, nothing at all.

The drop rate for equipment in Tale of Immortal was still as 'touching' as ever.

Lin Jichen didn't bother to loot; if he did, the drop rate would probably be much higher. But with so many Soul Burial Mounds, if he looted them all himself, the Secret Realm would probably end before he finished.

Every Secret Realm had a time limit.

Besides, he wasn't interested in the items dropped by these ordinary zombies.

After a brief rest, Lin Jichen led the team deeper into the valley.

A thick green fog blocked their path ahead.

Without needing Lin Jichen's reminder, everyone took out their Corpse Poison Potions and drank them.

This fog was the Corpse Poison Mist that every guild hated with a passion.

Any team wanting to clear Corpse King Valley had to pass through here.

And to get through, they needed Corpse Poison Potions.

The amount of money guilds had poured into these potions was unimaginable.

They hated this area to the core. Although the price of Corpse Poison Potions had dropped significantly, it still cost a lot of money!

Of course, Lin Jichen was quite grateful for this poisonous fog.

Because it was the reason he got rich. Thanks to Corpse Poison Potions, he was able to open four shops.

Just as they stepped into the Corpse Poison area, the fifth wave of zombies attacked.

This time, there were fewer zombies than before, less than a thousand.

But compared to the previous waves of zombies at the Initial stage of Qi Refining, these zombies had all leveled up to the Middle stage of Qi Refining.

"Everyone, be careful. This wave of zombies includes spell-casting zombies, so the front line needs to hold. It's time to test the healers!"

As soon as Lin Jichen finished speaking, the fifth wave of zombies arrived.

Facing a horde of zombies that had all leveled up, the pressure on the front-line Body Cultivators doubled.

"Don't worry about dealing damage, just hold the line! Activate Muscle and Bone! Knock them back!"

At Lin Jichen's command, the front-line Body Cultivator girls shouted in unison, and a visible aura shield appeared around them.

Then, with a heavy punch, they knocked back the approaching zombies several meters.

This was the Body Cultivators' signature skill, 'Resonating Muscles and Bones,' which could temporarily boost defense and increase vitality.

That's why Body Cultivators could serve as tanks.

Lin Jichen was well-versed in most of the skills of all professions, and his commands were orderly and precise.

This led to other zombies' skills hitting them, instantly depleting their health bars and killing over a dozen of them.

The healers who failed to cast Purify properly panicked, feeling guilty and repeatedly apologizing.

"Don't panic, now is not the time for apologies," Lin Jichen said calmly. "Stick to the plan. Third-tier Body Cultivators, move up!"

Before entering Corpse King Valley, Lin Jichen had anticipated this situation and was prepared.

The third-tier Body Cultivator girls immediately moved up.

Lin Jichen had organized all the players into tiers and numbered them, making his commands smooth and efficient.

"Fifth-tier healers, move to the second tier. Everyone else, stick to the original plan and deal damage."

The formation, which was about to fall apart, stabilized again under Lin Jichen's command.

"Should I use my Spirit Skill?" Jiang Luoyu asked.

"No need, the ninth wave is your time to shine. But you can use some Martial Arts Techniques to speed things up."

After saying that, Lin Jichen joined the attack.

Finally, without any Body Cultivators falling, they passed the eighth wave of zombies without any major issues.

Although they lost dozens of people, this casualty rate was the lowest among all the guilds.

As soon as the eighth wave ended, they didn't even have time to loot the Soul Burial Mounds or recover. The ninth wave of zombies arrived!

A hundred Body Cultivator zombies at the Middle stage of Foundation Establishment. The archers and spell cultivators in the back tried normal attacks, but they all missed.

"Your turn, Guild Leader Jiang," Lin Jichen said to Jiang Luoyu.

Jiang Luoyu began chanting a spell.

"All Body Cultivators and artifact cultivators, move up! Just don't let them threaten our backline. Even if you die, keep them at bay."

Lin Jichen led the charge into the zombie horde.

"Everyone listen up, your normal attacks won't break these zombies' defenses. Now is the time to unleash your skills."

As soon as Lin Jichen finished speaking, skills rained down on the hundred Middle stage Foundation Establishment zombies.

Although the damage wasn't high, it couldn't withstand the bombardment from thousands of people.

The zombies in the front fell one after another.

When the sky filled with annihilating demonic energy, Lin Jichen also unleashed the Rebirth Buddha Seal!

The two skills hit the remaining zombies almost simultaneously.

The damage exploded instantly.

The ninth wave, cleared!

Before they could even celebrate, the tenth wave of zombies arrived!
