Chapter 109 Preparation
In the blink of an eye, another three or five days passed.

The charity cemetery became more and more lively, with more and more Maoshan Taoists coming from afar.

There were more than a dozen people from Taoist Qianhe's generation alone, and together with their disciples and the like, there were as many as fifty or sixty people.

The charity cemetery had long been full of people, and most of the people lived in the old Tengfei Town. Ren Tianxing sent people there to await their orders.

Sealing the mass grave is not a matter of one day or one night. It requires the joint efforts of everyone. It is not something that can be sealed directly after arriving.

What's more, setting up an array, especially sealing extremely powerful zombies and monsters, requires sealing materials of high value.

While discussing what kind of formation to set up, they also needed to collect various materials for the formation.

To set up a formation, you can't just stand there and set up a large formation.

To create a void formation, one needs a very high level of cultivation. At least one must have the magical power of an immortal!

With the cultivation of an immortal, is there any need to set up a formation? Just destroy the terrifying existence under the mass grave directly.

It is possible to be sealed, and sealed in the zombie world. No matter how powerful one's cultivation is, it is impossible to surpass the level of immortals.

Where is Zhang Chu?
As for the matter of sealing the mass grave, he simply adopted a laissez-faire approach. Apart from absorbing the corpse qi and death energy escaping from the mass grave every day, he hid in the military camp and had no intention of showing up at all.

After all, he has to go to Liancheng World every day to see the development trajectory of Liancheng World.

If those people from Liancheng World took advantage of Zhang Chu's absence and directly destroyed Yizhuang, he would suffer a great loss.

Most of the treasures in Tianning Temple were taken out by Zhang Chu and placed in the charity cemetery in Liancheng World.

Although these were all unexpected gains, Zhang Chu didn't want to lose them just like that!
What's more, the refined corpses in the Juyin Land are about to be unearthed. That is the source of Zhang Chu's strength improvement. If it is suddenly destroyed, it will take a long time to cultivate another batch.

The most important thing is that the Yin Gathering Land will not be destroyed after it is formed.

If the Juyin Land was destroyed, it would be too late for Zhang Chuzhen to regret.

For more than ten days, Zhang Chu spent every day either washing the Corpse King Banner or practicing the Divine Illumination Sutra, and his life was quite peaceful.

As for his two thousand new men, he did not let them idle.

Even if you haven't eaten pork, have you seen a pig run?

Zhang Chu compiled a simple training outline based on the training methods of modern armies in his memory, and then had his men start training.

If ordinary people did this, they would have mutinied long ago.

However, Zhang Chu doesn't have to worry, he has money!
Not to mention the cash taken from the Axe Gang's warehouse and safe, the money that Ren Tianxing sent as an apology was enough to allow his men to enjoy a feast for a month or two, even including their salaries.

Because of Zhang Chu's vicious reputation, his subordinates didn't dare to commit any acts of corruption.

The corpses of the more than a thousand people devoured by the Corpse King Banner are not just for show.

As the training became regularized, Zhang Chu also wanted to improve the combat effectiveness of his men.

Forget about martial arts or Taoist magic. He simply sent a telegram to the arms dealer in Magic City, ordering two thousand guns and hundreds of thousands of rounds of bullets.

Even though a lot of money was spent, the combat effectiveness was also greatly improved.

The zombie world is still very valuable, especially the classics contained in the sects.

At the moment, Chaofan has not completely disappeared, so Zhang Chu certainly doesn't dare to act rashly.

However, if we wait a few decades, until all the extraordinary people have completely disappeared, then those classics can be bought with money.

Leave behind a force of your own, so that when the time comes, you can use money or power to oppress others, which will always be a way out.

On this day, the sun was shining brightly. When Zhang Chu was practicing the Heavenly Corpse Technique in the military camp, Taoist Qianhe came up.

"senior,"

Zhang Chu looked at the somewhat tired Taoist Qianhe and asked, "But is there any progress?"

"The materials for the seal have been collected!"

Taoist Qianhe sat here, looking at the majestic Zhang Chu in front of him, "Thanks to the gold and silver you provided, otherwise, I don't know how long it would take to collect all the materials!"

“This is what should be done!”

Zhang Chu shook his head and stopped Taoist Qianhe from speaking. "I was the one who initiated this matter. Even if I can't contribute physically, I should contribute some money!"

"Besides, I'm not short of money!"

At this point, Zhang Chu looked at Taoist Qianhe solemnly, "Senior, when will we start sealing the mass grave?"

"Start setting up the formation in three days!"

Taoist Qianhe did not hide anything and told Zhang Chu directly, "By then, your men may need to be transferred to other places."

"When setting up the formation, there is a high possibility that the monsters below will counterattack. At that time, those of them who have no cultivation may be in danger of their lives."

"I see!"

After hearing this, Zhang Chu nodded, but did not say whether to move the person away.

"Also,"

Looking at Zhang Chu sitting there, Taoist Qianhe hesitated for a moment and said slowly, "How are you going to resolve the issue between you and Senior Brother Lin?"

"this."

Zhang Chu looked at Taoist Qianhe's slightly tired eyes, was silent for a moment, and then said directly, "Senior, it depends on how he wants to solve it!"

Taoist Qianhe immediately looked at Zhang Chu with a puzzled look, he knew that Zhang Chu had something else to say.

"I accept fighting, I accept group fights!"

"But once it starts, life and death are determined by fate, and wealth and honor are determined by God!"

Taoist Qianhe stared blankly at Zhang Chu's determined eyes, but he had no intention of persuading him.

Revenge is justified.

Taoists have never been magnanimous people.

If a person is magnanimous, how could he write history books in which victory is mentioned in just one word, while failure is described in great detail? Isn't it just to let future generations remember the shame so that they can take revenge?

"Ugh!"

Therefore, Taoist Qianhe sighed, chatted with Zhang Chu for a few more words, and then said goodbye.

He knew in his heart that he couldn't persuade Zhang Chu.

What's more, death may be a big deal for them, but it has never been a big deal for Senior Brother Lin.

To seal the great demon under the mass grave, Lin Fengjiao’s accumulated merits must be enough.

In addition, with the ancestors looking after him in the underworld, it is not impossible to find him a good job.

He had heard that the underground bank boss seemed to have already chosen Lin Fengjiao as his candidate.

Looking at Taoist Qianhe's back, Zhang Chu had no intention of seeing him off.

He had already considered what his chances of winning were against Lin Fengjiao.

After all, Lin Fengjiao can really be called a person with great luck in this world, and it is not an exaggeration to even call her the protagonist.

With just the dozen or so corpses in his hands, it might not be safe!

The art of summoning spirits is simply a big bug. What can the bronze-armored corpse do if the ancestor possesses him? Although Zhang Chu remembered that the one who was most proficient in the art of summoning spirits was Taoist Simu, who could guarantee that Lin Fengjiao couldn't do it?
Time flies, and three days are gone in a flash.

Most of the soldiers living in the old Tengfei Town have already returned to Lucheng for garrison. Only some guards and about two or three hundred people are left around Zhang Chu.

Early in the morning, Zhang Chu brought his men directly to the mass grave and began to set up the formation there according to the formation discussed by the Maoshan Taoist priests.

In fact, setting up a battle formation in a low-magic world is really a physical job.

Various materials for setting up the formation need to be buried around the mass grave. It would probably take about half a month for the Maoshan Taoists to complete all the preliminary work.

However, with the soldiers led by Zhang Chu, it is entirely possible to let the Maoshan Taoist priest act as a supervisor and let those people do physical work.

Pieces of materials for setting up the formation were continuously buried around the mass grave.

I started early in the morning and worked until dark, but I still hadn't buried everything.

There are simply too many materials for setting up the formation. According to the current progress, it will take at least two days to prepare the preliminary work for setting up the formation.

By night, everyone had evacuated.

It’s not that construction cannot be carried out at night, but when it’s dark and there’s no scorching sun to suppress it, who knows what accidents may occur during construction?

As the crowd dispersed, Zhang Chu stood silently on the mass grave, looking at the corpse gas and death energy that continued to emerge, his face extremely solemn.

It seemed that the existence beneath the mass grave also knew that Zhang Chu and the others were setting up a large formation, and corpse qi and death energy were constantly emerging.

It's not like before, where the corpse qi would only reach a peak every other day.

Nowadays, the corpse gas and death energy in the mass grave are constantly dissipating like they are free, and have already dissipated beyond the scope of the mass grave.

This is also the reason why we didn’t continue at night.

What Zhang Chu did was quite simple. He used the Corpse King Banner to absorb the corpse qi and death energy escaping from the mass grave to prevent it from disrupting the formation.

However, as the Corpse King Banner continued to devour, Zhang Chu actually discovered that the speed at which the Corpse King Banner devoured could no longer keep up with the speed at which it dissipated.

Whether it is the refined corpse in the Corpse King Banner or the Corpse King Banner itself, the amount of corpse qi and death qi they absorb is not unlimited. They all need to be digested and can only continue to absorb after digestion.

There is only one way to speed up digestion, that is, Zhang Chu constantly uses his own magic power to cleanse the Corpse King Banner, prompting the Corpse King Banner and the corpse refined in the Corpse King Banner to speed up the digestion of corpse gas.

However, although the refinement of magic power does play a significant role, it cannot speed up the digestion process indefinitely.

After all, Zhang Chu's own magic power is limited.

The magic power he consumed needs to be slowly restored by himself.

The zombie world is approaching the end of the Dharma era. Although the vitality of heaven and earth has not completely disappeared, it is not easy to quickly restore magic power.

If Zhang Chu didn’t have the zombie that was like a power bank in his hand, he would not have been able to survive a day at all.

For the whole night, Zhang Chu did not rest at all. He just sat quietly beside the mass grave, constantly absorbing the escaping corpse qi and death qi.

Perhaps because they were worried about something happening, Taoist Qianhe, Taoist Simu and Lin Fengjiao showed no intention of leaving.

They sat around Zhang Chu and looked at him with extreme vigilance.

It was really because Zhang Chu absorbed too much corpse energy in one day.

They knew all too well the taboos of practicing the Heavenly Corpse Art.

If there is too much refined corpse qi, the practitioner may very likely turn into a zombie without realizing it.

With Zhang Chu's current cultivation level, if he turned into a zombie, it would be another bronze-armored corpse.

The mass grave is already troublesome enough, if a bronze-armored corpse appears, wouldn’t it be even more troublesome?
They stayed here to prevent any bigger accidents from happening in the mass grave, and on the other hand to keep an eye on Zhang Chu, in case Zhang Chu turned into a corpse or was controlled by the existence under the mass grave.

By then, not only will the sealing formation fail to be set up, they may even die.

Nothing happened all night and then dawn came.

"Longevity,"

Taoist Qianhe looked at Zhang Chu in front of him, a little worried, "How do you feel?"

"nothing!"

Zhang Chu stood up and stretched his body.

After a day and a night of consumption, Zhang Chu not only felt that he was fine, but he also felt that his magic power had become much purer.

It was even much faster than the speed at which he refined his magic power when he simply refined it.

"Nothing happened!"

Looking at Zhang Chu's calm face, Taoist Qianhe nodded and finally felt relieved.

Even Lin Fengjiao and Taoist Simu who were standing by were the same.

What they were worried about was not only that Zhang Chu would turn into a zombie, but what they were more worried about was that if Zhang Chu turned into a zombie, there would be no one to restrain his two thousand newly recruited subordinates.

Even though everyone present was considered to have great magical powers, they were still afraid when faced with more than 2,000 people with guns and the ability to run!

Although Taoist magic is very powerful, it cannot stop cannons as we approach the end of the Dharma era.

After just talking for a while, other Maoshan Taoist priests arrived, and Zhang Chu's men also rushed over and continued to work under the command of the Maoshan Taoist priests.

Zhang Chu also retreated silently. Due to the suppression of the sun during the day, the corpse qi did not dissipate quickly. Moreover, there were more than a dozen powerful Maoshan Taoist priests watching there, so the possibility of anything happening would not be too great.

He needed to return to the military camp and have some rest, and he also needed to visit the charity cemetery in Liancheng World.

That place is also where his foundation is, and he can't give it up easily.

When he arrived at the military camp, Zhang Chu had already arrived at the charity cemetery of Liancheng World in a flash.

The charity cemetery remains the same, and the people are still the same.

No, Zhang Chu looked directly towards the room where the man in black was.

It seems that there are newcomers in the charity cemetery.

Without any hesitation, he took the Corpse King Banner and walked towards the black-clothed man's room.

"Greetings to the Taoist Master!"

As soon as Zhang Chu walked out of the quiet room, Lao Liu came to meet him.

"Someone's coming to the charity cemetery?"

"Master, this person was recruited by the Taoist priest in black, who said he was here to make pills for you!"

"Oh!"

Zhang Chu finally remembered that he had previously asked Hei Yi to recruit some Taoists to help him refine pills.

I've been so busy with the zombie world that I almost forgot about this.

"Pindao knows!"

Looking at Old Liu in front of him, Zhang Chu nodded, asked some other questions, and then returned to the quiet room.

Since there is nothing else to do, he might as well return to the zombie world first!
