Looking at the altar again.

Xiao Mu immediately made a new discovery.

On the altar table, in front of the blood-red bead, there were other things placed.

From the way they were placed, they were obviously offerings.

The content of the offerings made Xiao Mu extremely delighted.

Even from a distance, he instantly recognized the offerings on the altar table to be the martial arts secret manual and energy fruits.

There were even three energy fruits and two secret martial arts manuals.

Was this an offering?

Who were the zombies making an offering to?

Could it be that entity underground?

Xiao Mu was suddenly intrigued.

You should know that even for him, a complete secret manual is worth at least a dozen energy points.

Two martial arts secret manuals and three energy fruits would be equal to over sixty, perhaps even seventy, energy points.

Moreover, if he manages to kill the third-grade evil zombie, the additional energy points would be huge, with a single third-grade evil zombie giving seven points.

Quickly suppressing the excitement in his heart, Xiao Mu continues to observe the altar table.

He was mainly observing the blood bead emanating a strong yin qi.

Upon observing, Xiao Mu once again felt a shock.

This blood bead not only converted the yin qi stripped from the yin spirits into evil qi, but also absorbed spiritual energy from the air, albeit minuscule, it was still being turned into evil qi.

A majority of this evil qi went underground, absorbed by some unknown entity.

A small part was released, forming an evil fog, which was inhaled by the third-grade evil zombie.

"Huh..."

Below ground, with the absorption of the evil qi, faint sounds of breathing could be heard.

Upon hearing this breathing sound, Xiao Mu couldn't help but change his expression, his heart pounding violently.

The unknown powerful entity was actually reviving.

All because of this bead.

The bead absorbed yin qi, condensing it into a blood-red evil fog, providing it to the unknown powerful entity underground, facilitating its revival.

It seems that this unknown powerful entity must have been injured. This bead is using the evil qi to heal it.

Xiao Mu stared intensely at the blood-red bead.

This bead must be destroyed, otherwise, once the powerful entity underground revives, it would pose huge trouble.

Immediately, he continued to observe the altar table.

Xiao Mu made another discovery.

The blood-red bead was actually releasing a special blood-red energy, forming something like a protective shield that enveloped the altar table.

There's protection?

Xiao Mu was slightly taken aback.

Although he still did not know the potential of this blood-red protective shield, obviously, to plunder the secret manual and energy fruit on the altar table, the shield needed to be broken first.

Perhaps, the blood bead needed to be broken first.

"Huh!"

While absorbing the evil qi, the breathing of the unknown entity underground seemed to have grown much stronger.

Whoo!

Just as Xiao Mu was taken aback.

The blood-red bead suddenly emitted a blood light which shot towards the vicinity of the altar table.

A blood-red vortex door began to form.

"What is this..."

Xiao Mu stared at the blood-red vortex door, a chill running through his heart.

The door felt eerie, endlessly radiating an immense evil power, as if behind the door were the City of the Unjustly Dead, the Ghost Gate.

Seeing the vortex door appear, the third-grade evil zombie stood up and walked into the door, quickly disappearing behind it.

"Seize this opportunity to snatch the martial arts secret scripts and energy fruits."

Upon seeing the level three evil zombie enter the vortex, a wave of eagerness surged in Xiao Mu's heart. He immediately leapt out of his hiding spot and jumped onto the altar.

He moved swiftly, striding next to the altar table. He stretched out his hand, attempting to take the martial arts secret scripts and energy fruits on the table.

"Huh!"

Surprisingly, the odd blood-red protective shield seemed to divert Xiao Mu's hand. It felt as if the inside of the blood-red cover was in another dimension. No matter how Xiao Mu tried to grab, his hand could only brush past the shield.

"What a strange bead!"

Gazing at the blood-red bead, Xiao Mu had another idea, "Let's see if the Peach Wood Sword can break the blood shield."

To take the offerings, it's not enough to destroy the bead; at the very least, he must break the shield first.

Crack!

Xiao Mu swiftly swung his Peach Wood Sword, striking it against the blood-red shield.

Hum!

The Thunder Power made the blood-red shield tremble wildly, showing signs of collapse, however, the blood-red bead quickly released a brilliance, replenishing the shield immediately.

Xiao Mu's expression slightly changed.

It seemed it wasn't that easy to destroy the shield. Perhaps, to destroy it, he would first have to crush the blood-red bead.

"Whew…"

Below, an unknown entity seemed to have sensed the commotion above. Its breaths suddenly became heavy.

Footsteps echoed from the blood-red vortex, the level three evil zombie was actually rushing back.

Xiao Mu's heart tightened and he quickly jumped down from the altar, hiding again.

The Level three evil zombie emerged, glancing nervously around, then checked the altar table, where everything remained intact.

The evil zombie seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

It proceeded to inspect the altar, which was also undamaged.

A puzzled expression crossed the ugly, twisted face of the level three evil zombie.

Earlier, it had heard noises from beyond the vortex, thinking that humans or some other beings had intruded. However, after checking, it found no abnormalities and dismissed the idea.

Xiao Mu remained hidden in the dark, unmoving.

The level three evil zombie sat back down on the altar to continue absorbing the blood-red evil fog.

"Roar..."

From the direction of the ruined room, came the howl of the level three evil zombie.

At the same time, a swooshing sound also rushed over from that direction. That level three evil zombie was actually running towards him at high speed, howling in corpse language as it ran.

The level three evil zombie absorbing the blood-red evil fog on the altar reluctantly stood up, yelled a few times at the rushing zombie, then descended from the altar.

The rushing zombie howled a few more times, ascended the altar, sat down, and started greedily absorbing the blood-red evil fog on the altar.

The descended evil zombie cast a reluctant look at the blood-red evil fog on the altar and turned towards the broken room.

Are these two evil zombies taking turns?

Observing the behavior of the two zombies, Xiao Mu couldn't help but speculate.

He continued to stay hidden without revealing his trace.

The zombie on the altar came down, and another took its place.

Huh!

The scene he just witnessed almost made Xiao Mu cry out in surprise.

The moment the zombie left the red light of the blood-red bead on the altar, he was shocked to find that its vitality seemed to have weakened considerably.

Similarly, the light from the blood-red bead on the altar suddenly intensified when the other zombie climbed onto the altar and entered its range.

Xiao Mu was stunned.

This bead actually had such a miraculous effect? Staying within the range of the red light could enhance the strength of the evil zombie.

No, both zombies seemed to be injured and needed the bead's power to recover their strength.

This discovery brought a surge of delight to Xiao Mu.

He cast a stern look at the blood-red bead.

The threat of this bead was too great; it must be destroyed first.
