Chapter 218: Full of Unknowns (Part 1)
Zhang Mu had his hand inside the zombie monk’s body, but he hadn’t touched the Sharira yet.
This zombie monk is likely one of the twelve arhats from the future.
Zhang Mu didn’t realize before, the difference was just too big. The huge elemental crystal shown by this zombie monk must have undergone some unknown mutation due to excessive infusion.
Who would have thought that beneath this huge elemental crystal, there was a seemingly insignificant Sharira hidden?
But, this is the key to the whole thing, Zhang Mu slowly organized his thoughts.
For some reason, this zombie monk, under fortunate circumstances, gave birth to this Sharira within its body, which is extremely rare even in an old monk’s body. The coexistence but conflict between the Sharira and elemental crystal led to the birth of consciousness in this zombie monk, born not long ago.
However, this consciousness, originally based on the memories of others, was much more mature compared to mutant beasts. Yet it had a fatal flaw, which was its instability.
So when Zhang Mu stimulated a crucial point, it triggered the automatic defense of the Sharira, causing the consciousness to become disturbed as it is now.
Actually, Zhang Mu recalled that this kind of zombie with Sharira did bear some resemblance to the monk giant zombie just now, but the situation was urgent earlier, and he didn’t have the time to think about it.
The monk giant zombie from earlier must have displayed its true strength after using the Sharira, but now its level is really low. The activation of Sharira requires massive energy, and with the unstable consciousness of this zombie disappearing, it has become a zombie that only knows the most primal instinct of feeding.
Not only wasted its effects, but more importantly, without the wise zombie monk, it didn’t know when to stop using the Sharira. So when no external energy was taken in, the Sharira kept absorbing constantly from its own flesh and from its large but now dull elemental crystal.
After being controlled by Zhang Mu for so long, this zombie monk had exhausted too much, which is why it now looks half-dead.
Thinking back to when the illusion formation unknowingly stopped operating, Zhang Mu speculated that this Sharira was the core of the entire illusion formation, planned by the zombie monk while it still had consciousness.
The alliance between the white fox and the zombie monk probably happened because this Bottle Gourd Jin Zhong City was guarded by the zombie monk. It discovered that the heavenly treasure here matured much faster than elsewhere, all thanks to the Sharira’s aura.
In fact, before Zhang Mu arrived, the core of the Bottle Gourd had already matured; it just needed flesh and blood nourishment to plump it up, showing the terrifying aspect of the Sharira. Mutant beasts in later generations who only knew to nourish with blood and flesh lacked mature cores, hence their limited abilities.
However, the white fox didn’t know anything at all, which allowed Zhang Mu to take advantage.
As part of the exchange, the white fox and its kin needed to act as protectors until the zombie monk stabilized its consciousness.
The white fox mistakenly thought that this land was good, or else the zombies and mutant beasts would have already started a war. They waited for the humans to attack because of their greed and hunger.
They plotted against Long Qi because the zombie monk knew its unstable state and wanted to use the illusion caused by the Sharira to lure Long Qi into their trap, so they wouldn’t have to make much effort to kill him.
The plan went smoothly for them at first, but unexpectedly, the biggest war in the early days of the apocalypse dragged Zhang Mu into the mess.
Sharira has almost drained this zombie in front of her, leaving only the most basic life force.
Without exaggeration, even if this zombie monk regains his consciousness now, he has no strength to fight back against Zhang Mu, as he is now weaker than even a first-order zombie.
Zhang Mu made up his mind and slowly reached towards the empty space where Sharira was.
Despite not knowing what would happen, Sharira possessed a treasure that no human had the right to have!
