Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 2932: Chapter 169: Sishen_3

It seemed like a ”reborn” person who hadn’t yet adapted to their body, thus their moves were very stiff and rigid.

To someone as skilled as Gao Du, this was the biggest vulnerability.

Gao Du slowly let out a sigh of relief.

Since he saw through the moves, he gradually started to handle them with ease.

And soon, he discovered an even bigger vulnerability of this reanimated corpse:

Excessive consumption.

Although he didn’t know the principle, Gao Du could sense that every punch from this corpse caused a faint blue light to flicker inside its body.

It must be driven by some strange ”spiritual power.”

And this corpse, with its immense strength, must consume a tremendous amount of spiritual power.

The large consumption of spiritual power would make it unsustainable for prolonged battles.

As it fought, its strength indeed began to wane.

Seeing through these vulnerabilities, Gao Du let out another sigh of relief.

This makes it simple...

Gao Du thought he could just wear down this ”corpse” for a while, exhaust its spiritual power, and then it would naturally be useless.

Gao Du patiently began to wear down the reanimated corpse of Sishen.

In the entire poisonous swamp, only Gao Du was battling with Sishen’s reanimated corpse.

The barbarian soldiers from the Vermilion Bird Mountain dared not enter the swamp.

The Gao Tu Tribe’s barbarian soldiers also dared not intervene in such a battle.

Gao Du alone bore the pressure brought on by Sishen’s reanimated corpse.

Sishen’s reanimated corpse, with its coarse skin and thick flesh, lacked pain sensation, was unafraid of injury, immune to poison, and did not fear any dangers in the poisonous swamp, purely a ”slaughter” tool, fighting fearlessly. Apart from its rigid moves and spiritual power consumption, there were no other shortcomings.

Facing it head-on was actually quite strenuous for Gao Du.

But even so, because of the ”rigid moves” and ”huge consumption,” these two ”major vulnerabilities,” the situation in the battle gradually became clearer.

Sure enough, after an hour, the blue light on Sishen’s reanimated corpse slowly dimmed, and its movements became significantly slower.

This was a sign that its spiritual power was about to be exhausted.

However, Gao Du’s state wasn’t much better.

He initially fought with Lugu, both sides taking damage, and then was ambushed by Sishen’s reanimated corpse, fighting till now, even overdrawing the Hundred Poisonous Snake Skill several times, almost exhausting all his witch power and qi force.

Seeing that Sishen’s blue light was almost gone and it was about to become immobile,

Gao Du was also about to collapse, so he spoke to a few Golden Core barbarian generals from the Gao Tu Tribe beside him:

”You come over too, let’s together subdue this half-dead thing. I want to cut open its chest and see what exactly this thing is...”

”Yes, General!”

Two Golden Core members of the Gao Tu Tribe cupped their hands in agreement, and then jointly, one wielding a knife, the other a lock chain, together with Gao Du, the three Golden Core members joined forces and quickly subdued the reanimated corpse of Sishen.

This was in the depths of the poisonous swamp.

Gao Du had helpers.

But on the side of the Vermilion Bird Mountain tribe, no one could help Sishen.

They could only watch as Sishen’s corpse was locked up by chains, a knife to its neck, motionlessly subdued by the Gao Tu Tribe.

Lugu’s expression was grave.

The blue light in the eyes of Sishen’s corpse completely disappeared.

Seeing this, Gao Du finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This bizarre reanimated corpse had finally exhausted its power, coming to a stop.

Next, all that was needed was...

Gao Du gently exhaled a breath, and for a moment, let down his guard.

It was just a moment, but suddenly, the warning in his heart intensified, hair standing on end. When he turned his head, he found that in the hollow eye sockets of Sishen’s reanimated corpse, that once extinguished eerie blue light suddenly reignited, glowing brightly.

Gao Du’s eyes widened suddenly.

”Not good! Quickly...”

Before Gao Du finished speaking, a ”puchi” sound rang out, and a splash of blood erupted before his eyes.

The lock chains on Sishen’s body were broken, and with just one punch, it pierced through the abdomen of a Golden Core barbarian general from the Gao Tu Tribe.

This Gao Tu Tribe barbarian general, with only Mid-stage Golden Core Cultivation, was taken by surprise and was explosively killed by Sishen at close range, unable to react at all.

”Damn it, you sneaky...”

Gao Du was enraged, but before he could finish cursing, he witnessed an even more horrifying scene:

Sishen’s reanimated corpse, after punching through the abdomen of the Gao Tu Tribe barbarian general, reached inside and from three inches below the abdomen, pulled out alive, with veins and flesh attached, a bloody, radiant... Golden Core.

Then, before anyone could react, under the watchful eyes of all, the ”Sishen” corpse put the living Golden Core, fused with blood and spirit, into its mouth, and with a ”crunch,” chewed it up.

Then... swallowed it down.

In that instant, everyone’s expressions were shocked, their faces deathly pale.
