Nekrotic remained suspended in mid-air, coldly staring at Leo without making any moves. Without hesitation, Leo sat cross-legged on the ground and took out four Talismans from his body.
“By the power of the flying sunset, rise with the purple microcosm, exterminate demons and evil, swiftly as the law commands, absolve!” Leo chanted the spell while forming a seal with his left hand, then he simultaneously slapped the four Talismans onto the ground.
A dazzling burst of golden light erupted, and four golden beams shot towards Nekrotic. However, the beams weren’t attacking Nekrotic; instead, they circled around its body at a distance of about one meter. As Leo made a hand seal, the four rotating beams transformed into four Tai Chi fish diagrams.
The Tai Chi diagrams enclosed Nekrotic, slowly revolving around its body. As Nekrotic’s body descended, the four diagrams descended with it. The white light strip connecting Nekrotic’s body disappeared, but Nekrotic paid no attention to the surrounding diagrams, taking a step towards Leo’s direction.
However, it seemed to be obstructed by something in front. Nekrotic attempted to take a big step forward, but it only managed to take half a step, unable to leave the range projected by the Tai Chi diagrams.
The muscles on Nekrotic’s stiff face twitched twice. It raised its right hand and threw a punch towards the Tai Chi fish diagram in front of it.
Leo, sitting cross-legged on the ground, rapidly changed hand seals. The Yin-Yang fish struck by Nekrotic shattered and transformed into numerous small Yin and Yang fish, swimming around Nekrotic’s body.
Then, the second diagram shattered, followed by the third and finally the fourth… Countless Yin and Yang fish swam around Nekrotic, completely enclosing it.
Facing the bothersome Yin and Yang fish in front of it, Nekrotic’s eyes filled with a sinister aura. It let out a strange roar and threw another punch.
The powerful fist wind blew towards Leo, causing a slight pain on his face.
Leo understood very well that although Nekrotic, the zombie, had gone through more than a thousand years of formation, it had just recently awakened and was still in the early stages of its power and consciousness. At this stage, Nekrotic instinctively resisted danger. Otherwise, when it emerged from the coffin, it wouldn’t have merely stared coldly at Leo.
If he waited for the monster to evolve to its peak state, Leo estimated that his only option would be to flee for his life.
Therefore, he had to seize the opportunity while Nekrotic was in a weakened state and eliminate it. Otherwise, he feared he would never be able to leave this illusionary tomb.
Nekrotic’s punch landed on the Yin-Yang small fish, causing them to disperse, but they quickly regrouped. No matter how Nekrotic kept punching, the Yin and Yang fish scattered but remained intact, still encircling Nekrotic tightly.
Unable to resolve the Yin and Yang fish, Nekrotic grew impatient. It tried to step away from its original position, but every time it moved its feet, the Yin and Yang fish clung to them, binding its feet tightly and preventing it from moving.
Leo knew time was precious; he couldn’t engage in a protracted battle with this zombie creature. He immediately grabbed another Talisman from his body. To eliminate Nekrotic, he had to go all out; otherwise, once this creature regained its formidable combat power, his chances of survival would be slim.
Leo placed the Talismans in his hand on the ground, arranging them in a row. Then, while reciting an incantation, he extended the index finger of his right hand. With each completed sentence of the incantation, a golden light flickered at the tip of his right index finger, which he then pressed onto the Talismans on the ground.
What Leo was doing now was infusing Spiritual Power into the Talismans.
As Leo continued his actions, the surface of the Talismans lined up on the ground changed from the cinnabar-drawn rune patterns to golden.
A mysterious fluctuation arose in this tomb chamber.
Nekrotic, surrounded by the Yin-Yang small fish, seemed to sense something. Its restlessness turned into fury, and in its wild roars, it appeared that the Yin-Yang small fish could no longer withstand the onslaught.
Leo had already activated all twelve Talismans, and a difficult and convoluted incantation resonated from his mouth: “Within and beyond the Three Realms, the Dao stands alone. With golden light within my body, I am reflected. Unseen to the eyes, unheard by the ears, encompassing heaven and earth, nurturing all beings!”
After finishing the incantation, Leo formed different hand seals with his left and right hands, then pushed them towards Nekrotic.
The twelve Talismans simultaneously floated up from the ground, transforming into twelve golden streams of light that surged toward the Yin-Yang small fish.
The streams of light merged rapidly into the Yin-Yang small fish, imbuing them with a faint golden glow.
Nekrotic let out a painful roar as the Yin-Yang small fish all burrowed into its body.
Leo’s technique combined Tai Chi and talisman formations, known as the Twelve Golden Gang Yin-Yang Fusion Formation.
This formation was both flexible and firm, resilient yet soft. It was an extremely powerful Daoist formation, further enhanced by Leo’s unique Spiritual Power, elevating its strength to another level.
The unique aspect of this formation was its ability to disintegrate and destroy the target from within. Leo utilized the Yin-Yang small fish to enter Nekrotic’s body, aiming to completely destroy its physical form.
With the Yin-Yang small fish embedded inside, Nekrotic’s frenzied body ceased its movements. It began to convulse, and a black aura of Yin energy emanated from its surface.
The intense pressure generated by the dense Yin energy caused Leo, who was resisting with all his might, to turn pale.
Amidst Nekrotic’s agonizing screams, cracks resembling spiderwebs started appearing on its body’s surface. Golden light burst forth from the cracks, illuminating the entire tomb chamber.
Leo quickly distanced himself from it because the zombie Nekrotic’s body could explode at any moment.
However, to Leo’s disappointment, Nekrotic’s body didn’t explode. Instead, its wailing ceased, and it started walking step by step towards Leo.
Nekrotic’s eyes turned crimson, fixating on Leo. With heavy footsteps, it resembled the grim reaper walking out of hell.
Especially when facing those crimson eyes, Leo felt his soul tremble, as if his three souls and seven spirits were being attracted by a mysterious force, attempting to detach from his own body.
This sensation caused Leo’s consciousness to blur, and a powerful fatigue dragged at his eyelids, tempting him to close his eyes.
Hastily averting his gaze from Nekrotic, Leo felt a lingering fear.
During Nekrotic’s gradual approach, the spiderweb-like cracks on its body astonishingly began to heal. The golden light emanating from the cracks gradually faded, and the tomb chamber grew darker.
Seeing this situation, Leo gritted his teeth and decided to go all out, even if it meant exhausting his Spiritual Power.
Leo recalled the scene when he acquired the Mysterious Heaven Body Technique-transforming all forms, leaving only the divine intent, unleashing immeasurable power!
