My Mosquito Clones Are on a Killing Spree

Chapter 147: Chapter 91: Horde of Zombies

”An astronomical opportunity!”

Lin Yi’s heart pounded wildly.

The Kidney Water Spiritual Essence had given him incredible Recovery Power and a faster Bone Tempering speed.

’What would this mass of Corpse Fire Spiritual Essence bring?’

’Stronger attack power?’

’An advantage against dark and evil things?’

’Or...’

’The Refinement of his Spirit?’

He recalled that the master of Wangwu Mountain’s ”Sitting and Forgetting Disc” was a method for cultivating the Spirit.

This Spiritual Essence before him, born from the destruction of that master’s corpse, very likely contained the secrets of the spiritual plane!

’Can the Mosquito Avatar... absorb this terrifying flame?’

’Or will it be instantly incinerated, leaving not even a speck of ash, if it gets even a fraction too close?’

Lin Yi’s heart was in his throat.

This Fire Attribute Spiritual Essence was an absolutely heaven-defying stroke of fortune, the kind one could only hope to encounter by chance.

But it was, after all, a burning flame.

For the Mosquito Avatar to absorb it, it would have to pierce the inside of the flame with its proboscis.

’Can it withstand it?’

The immense temptation intertwined with the lethal danger, plunging him into a moment of hesitation.

Of course, Lin Yi wasn’t about to give up just like that.

’I’ll risk it! Fortune favors the bold!’

A resolute look flashed in his eyes.

’First, I’ll have the avatar test it. Just the tip of the proboscis into the flame! The moment it feels like the proboscis can’t take it, I’ll sever the limb to save the rest and retreat immediately!’

He quickly decided on a strategy.

Anyway, with the Kidney Water Spiritual Essence as a safety net, even if the avatar’s proboscis was destroyed, he could repair it completely with that vast Life Force once it reunited with his main body.

Of course.

He had to be extremely careful.

He absolutely could not let the flame travel up the proboscis and turn the entire avatar to ash!

Otherwise, he would truly lose everything, and it would all be over!

In the next moment, Lin Yi immediately took control of the Mosquito Avatar, carefully, inch by inch, approaching the floating golden flame.

When the slender proboscis finally, gently, tentatively touched the edge of the dancing flame.

TSSS...

[Iron Body Experience Points +1!]

[Iron Body Experience Points +1!]

[Iron Body Experience Points +1!]

[...]

System notifications spammed the screen!

”HSSS!!!”

An indescribably horrific, sharp pain instantly shot through the avatar’s shared senses and slammed into Lin Yi’s mind!

It was as if his entire being had been violently shoved into a volcano.

Every inch of his flesh and every one of his bones was being forged by the berserk flames!

Pain! It was too painful!

Hot! It was too hot!

Sweat instantly soaked through his back.

However, amidst this inhuman agony, Lin Yi was ecstatic to discover that although the avatar’s proboscis was seared until it glowed bright red like a branding iron, it hadn’t broken!

The seemingly pliable proboscis was actually revealing astonishing strength as it was forged by the Corpse Fire!

Moreover, the proficiency of his [Iron Body] skill was skyrocketing at an unprecedented rate!

’It’s working! The gamble paid off!’

Lin Yi roared in his heart, no longer hesitating in the slightest.

’[Blood Sucking]! Absorb it!’

The instant the command was given, the Mosquito Avatar activated its core talent!

”BZZZZ!”

Instantly, an incomparably scorching energy surged along the profound and mysterious channel connecting the avatar and his main body, rushing unstoppably into Lin Yi himself!

This energy was even more domineering and chaotic than when he had absorbed the Kidney Water Spiritual Essence.

[Acquired Spiritual Essence ’Heart Fire’!]

「On the mountain path.」

Lin Yi, who had been hurrying along the path, suddenly staggered!

”Urgh!”

He clenched his jaw tightly, forcefully swallowing the roar of pain that rose in his throat.

Veins bulged on his forehead and neck like writhing earthworms.

As the Heart Fire Spiritual Essence merged with his heart, it began to pound like a war drum. An intense pain, accompanied by the terrifying sensation of being on the verge of exploding, swept through his entire body!

Scorching!

An unparalleled heat!

It felt as if his internal organs were on fire, and the blood beneath his skin was boiling like hot oil!

’Hold on! I have to hold on!’

Lin Yi’s eyes were bloodshot as he forcibly mobilized all the Qi and Blood in his body to suppress it.

He fought to keep from making any pained noises, lest he attract the attention of the others in his group.

Meanwhile, the power of the Kidney Water Spiritual Essence was also activated. A cool breath of Life Force surged from his kidneys, continuously repairing the damage his heart sustained from the impact of the Corpse Fire’s energy.

The process was agonizing to the extreme, as if he were in Purgatory, and every second felt like an eternity.

At this moment, the Mosquito Avatar had become a perfectly stable channel for energy transfer, continuously siphoning the Power of Origin from the Corpse Fire Spiritual Essence in the main tomb chamber and transmitting it across space.

Lin Yi’s main body, meanwhile, acted as a crucible, struggling to receive this destructive Spiritual Essence that was powerful enough to incinerate all creation.

Just as more than half of the Corpse Fire Spiritual Essence had been absorbed.

A sudden change occurred!

「At the entrance of the main tomb chamber.」

The heavy coffin that served as a guardian at the entrance suddenly let out a grating CRACK!

”RUMBLE!”

The heavy coffin lid was violently thrown open from within by an immense force, smashing into the hard stone wall of the main chamber like a cannonball and sending a shower of shattered rock fragments flying!

An incredibly dense and ferocious cloud of pitch-black corpse miasma, so thick it couldn’t be dispersed, shot up like a beacon of smoke, instantly filling the entire chamber with a bone-chilling cold!

In the shared vision of Lin Yi’s Tracking map, the large black dot of light representing the guardian coffin suddenly flared in brightness, its color shifting from black to deep red, brimming with rabid hostility!

’Damn it! The energy fluctuations from absorbing the Spiritual Essence were too strong and woke up this monster!’

Alarm bells screamed in Lin Yi’s mind.

The map had previously shown that the energy signature of the thing inside the coffin far surpassed that of Chen Zhenguo; it was definitely a terrifying zombie of the Fifth Grade or even stronger!

It had clearly been awakened by the aura of the Origin that was released when the Corpse Fire Spiritual Essence was disturbed and absorbed in large quantities!

”ROAR!”

A low, thunderous roar exploded from within the coffin, shaking the entire tomb chamber, which vibrated as dust rained down from the ceiling.

A massive hand covered in bluish-black scales suddenly shot out and gripped the edge of the coffin.
