Chapter 65

Ten tentacle-like appendages, resembling long whips, swiftly danced around Li She, agile like ten long snakes. The sharp, triangular bone spines at their tips glinted with a cold light. Li She was now completely enveloped in a red whirlwind of whips, defending against Jiang Chen's attacks.

Seeing Li She's ten whips forming an impenetrable defense, Jiang Chen smiled in satisfaction. His body continued to move, relying on the speed provided by his massive wings to dart back and forth in the sky. Each movement was accompanied by a sonic boom, the 'pop pop pop' sounds merging into a continuous roar. Li She, standing on the ground, his ten tentacles swirling around him, also produced a 'whoosh whoosh whoosh' sound as they sliced through the air.

"Not bad, mastering defense so quickly is no easy feat. Each person who inherits the 'Drought Corpse Way' has a different manifestation, so the 'Drought Corpse True Body' they display is also different," Jiang Chen said while attacking.

Wang Yuyan and Li Yunlu, who were watching the battle, were stunned. Wang Yuyan, who considered herself an encyclopedia of martial arts, was now wide-eyed with shock. This had already surpassed the realm of any martial arts technique. The world's martial arts are invincible, and only speed can break them. No matter how exquisite your moves are, they are powerless against Jiang Chen's godlike speed. What good is a deep internal energy? Even if your internal energy is abundant, it cannot break Jiang Chen's immortal body.

Jiang Chen and Li She were locked in combat for over ten minutes. By now, the ground outside the thatched cottage was completely ravaged, the hard earth transformed into a large pit over fifty meters in diameter and seven to eight meters deep. Li She, enveloped in a red whirlwind of whips, stood in the pit, defending against Jiang Chen's attacks. Due to the extreme speed, Jiang Chen's figure appeared as multiple afterimages in all directions. Originally, when Li She used the 'Lingbo Weibu' technique, he left afterimages, but they quickly disappeared. However, Jiang Chen's afterimages were the result of his speed breaking the limits, each representing an attack, constantly flashing and attacking Li She from all sides.

Even the best defense has its weaknesses. Li She knew that Jiang Chen was not using his full strength. If Jiang Chen wanted to kill him, he probably wouldn't last ten moves. Li She roared, leaped high into the air, and his two wings flapped, causing his ten tentacles to dance. He soared into the sky like a majestic eagle. Although converting to the 'Drought Corpse Way' had eradicated all his internal energy, he still remembered the techniques. Li She used the 'Eagle and Snake Life and Death Struggle' technique, his sharp claws slicing through the air with a 'whoosh whoosh whoosh' sound.

Seeing Li She begin to attack, Jiang Chen smiled and said, "Kid, you're still too young!" He increased his speed and charged at Li She, who was now flailing his tentacles. A sonic boom echoed behind Jiang Chen as his wings flapped, and he suddenly appeared above Li She. Jiang Chen's foot, like a powerful kick, struck Li She's back with a 'thud.' Li She was embedded in the ground, leaving a large human-shaped pit.

"Ugh, ugh, ugh," Li She spat out a few mouthfuls of blood and struggled to get up. Wang Yuyan and Li Yunlu quickly came to his aid. Li She's back was indented from Jiang Chen's kick, and the red chitinous armor on his back writhed, taking a long time to recover. Wang Yuyan and Li Yunlu sighed in relief when Li She recovered. "The defense of the 'Drought Corpse True Body' is truly monstrous. If it were me, Jiang Chen's kick would have broken my spine, or even split me in two!" Li She exclaimed. Jiang Chen slowly landed, flapping his wings.

Looking at the battered Li She, Jiang Chen smiled and said, "Not bad, you've learned to defend and use your body. Yes, you've made great progress. Now you should understand the power of the 'Drought Corpse True Body,' right? Your previous martial arts techniques limited you. You still see yourself as a human, so you can't fully utilize the 'Drought Corpse True Body'!"

Li She nodded and said, "Yes, the 'Drought Corpse True Body' has astonishing defense and powerful attacks. Almost every part of the body is a weapon. Those martial arts techniques and internal energy are powerless against absolute strength, speed, and defense."

Li She's words echoed Wang Yuyan and Li Yulu's thoughts. The 'Drought Corpse True Body' had completely颠覆了她们对战斗的认知。

Jiang Chen slowly reverted to his human form, the fierce skull mask disappearing to reveal his handsome face. His body, now free of the chitinous armor, returned to his original height of 1.8 meters. He stretched his arms and sighed, "Ah, I'm getting old. Just a little movement and I'm sore all over. Alright, you three should leave. I've done what I needed to do, and it's not wise to stay here any longer!"

There's no such thing as a banquet that never ends. Hearing Jiang Chen's words, Li She and the others exchanged glances and bowed to him. Li She respectfully said, "Thank you, Senior, for your great kindness! Li She will never forget this!"

Wang Yuyan and Li Yunlu also nodded respectfully. Jiang Chen had expended a great deal of yin energy and essence to transform the three of them into 'Drought Corpse Bodies,' not only granting them eternal life but also opening a new door for them. Such a favor, they would never forget.

"Ha ha, you three kids, I hope you can break through the restrictions of the 'Drought Corpse Way' and reach the final realm. Alright, go. This world is not a place for you to stay," Jiang Chen said with a hearty laugh.

Li She and the others knew that this world was not just home to Jiang Chen but also to powerful beings like the incarnation of Guanyin and the human king Fuxi. They were still too insignificant. If they attracted the world's will, they would likely end up crippled or dead. Even someone as powerful as Jiang Chen would face the world's will when his yin energy became too strong.

After bidding farewell to Jiang Chen, Li She held Wang Yuyan and Li Yunlu's hands, silently communicating with the spirit of the Divine Thief Token. A bright white light emitted from the token, and with a 'whoosh,' they broke through the world's barrier and returned to Las Vegas.

Upon returning to the real world, Li She and the others found themselves naked again, but this time they were in Li She's bedroom. They exchanged smiles, and Li She carried the two of them to the bed. The room soon filled with the sounds of their intimate activities.

Wang Yuyan and Li Yunlu, now transformed into 'Drought Corpse Bodies,' had astonishing endurance. Li She and the two of them spent the entire day and night in passionate activity, from morning until the moon was high in the sky.

Lying in bed, the three of them panted heavily. Everything around them seemed different. Although Li She was a先天高手, and Wang Yuyan and Li Yunlu had reached the level of top martial artists through the 'Yijin Jing,' they could only roughly sense their surroundings. Now, as 'Drought Corpse Bodies,' they saw the world in a new light. The darkness no longer hindered their vision, and their eyes were like high-powered telescopes, able to clearly see the antennae of insects several kilometers away.

They could also sense different air currents with their eyes closed. The moon emitted a faint yin energy, while the pedestrians on the street emitted a faint yang energy. Some people had strong yang energy, indicating good health and a long life. Others had weak yang energy, suggesting they were gravely ill and had little time left.

"Hubby, it's so amazing. I didn't notice it at Jiang Chen's place, but now everything looks different at home," Wang Yuyan said, hugging Li She.

"Yes, Li, I can see the uneven surface of the moon. It's truly incredible," Li Yunlu marveled.

Li She's hands roamed over the two women's chests, a mischievous smile on his face. "Yes, it's really amazing. Before, I could barely hold them, but now even two hands might not be enough. Ha ha! And your skin is so smooth!"

Li Yunlu playfully scolded, "What? Are you saying I'm old and withered now?"

Li She quickly apologized, "No, my darling, you are always the most beautiful in my eyes."

Wang Yuyan teased, "Oh, so you only have eyes for your mother?"

Li She slapped himself and laughed, "My little darling, my big darling, you are both unique in the world! Ha ha, by the way, we are all 'Drought Corpse Bodies' now, and I haven't seen your 'Drought Corpse True Bodies.' Senior Jiang Chen said each person's 'Drought Corpse True Body' is different. Can you show me yours?"

Wang Yuyan tilted her head and said, "Yes, we are also curious!" She stood up, her baby-soft skin gleaming in the moonlight.

"Yes, I also want to see what my 'Drought Corpse True Body' looks like," Li Yunlu said, standing up as well.

Wang Yuyan closed her eyes, feeling the surging yin energy within her, and softly said, "Drought Corpse True Body."

Purple chitinous armor slowly grew over Wang Yuyan's body, covering her in a thin layer, like a purple bodysuit. Her prominent breasts were protected by large purple chest plates. A pair of three-meter-long purple bat wings unfurled from her back, and a purple face mask appeared on her face, covering her perfect features. The mask had curved horns on the sides, and her hands and feet were covered in thick purple chitinous armor. A three-meter-long tail extended from her waist, ending in a scorpion-like bone spike.

Li She swallowed hard. This was too sexy, "Devil's outfit? I like it, ha ha ha." Li She thought to himself.

Looking at Li Yunlu, Li She's nose bled. Li Yunlu's body was covered in a thin layer of black chitinous armor, with two high breasts protected by skull-shaped chest plates. Sharp bone spines grew from her elbows and knees, and a pair of three-meter-long bat wings unfurled from her back. Like Wang Yuyan, a long tail grew from her waist, ending in a triangular bone spike.

Seeing the two women in their 'Drought Corpse True Bodies,' Li She couldn't resist. He howled and carried the two of them back to bed.

The next morning, the sunlight streamed through the window, illuminating the room. The room was filled with the marks of their passionate night. Although Wang Yuyan and Li Yunlu's 'Drought Corpse Bodies' had greatly increased their endurance, they still couldn't withstand Li She's body, which had been enhanced by crossing five world barriers. Wang Yuyan and Li Yunlu lay together, their bodies covered in love bites.

Li She lit a cigar, took a deep puff, and exhaled a few smoke rings, silently thinking, "Although my innate internal energy is gone, I now have the 'Drought Corpse Body.' Immortal and indestructible, this gives me the time to continue my journey through countless worlds." Li She thought to himself.

"Kid, don't be too happy! Bringing you three to the 'My Date with a Zombie' world and staying for so long has almost depleted all my energy points!" the spirit of the token said.

Li She, hearing the spirit's voice, asked in confusion, "Spirit, didn't you say we still had tens of thousands of energy points?"

"Hmph, you don't know the cost of living! Is the difficulty of crossing world barriers the same for one person and three people? The energy points consumed are multiplied. And you three stayed in the 'My Date with a Zombie' world for a hundred days! Even a hotel room would cost tens of thousands! Moreover, that world is a medium-level world with an incarnation of Guanyin. The energy points you had are not enough. Now we only have 700 points left! You figure it out," the spirit said.

Li She scratched his head and said softly, "Crossing a medium-level world is so expensive. If we were to cross to a world with dragons and phoenixes, wouldn't it cost hundreds of energy points per day?"

"Exactly, do you think breaking through world barriers is easy? If it weren't for your good luck in obtaining that jade seal, you wouldn't even be able to reach the threshold of the 'My Date with a Zombie' world!" the spirit said.

"Ah, the Divine Thief Token's restrictions are only unlocked to the eighth level. To unlock more, I need enough energy points. Without a long-term plan, it's impossible to gain more fortune. It seems I need to start recharging the Divine Thief Token," Li She sighed.

"Recharging is your business. I'm going to hibernate." The spirit said and fell silent.
