Beast Taming: My Intelligence System-Chapter 787 - 504: Beimang Mountain (Part 2)

Yang Guofeng seemed quite calm. With the enemy already here, running away was useless.

Running away might get him devoured by Mao Shiba and become part of him.

Mao Shiba’s title as the Corpse Ancestor was well-deserved.

His fist quickly exploded, releasing clouds of black smoke.

"Haha, these smoke clouds contain a poison so potent that even the Twenty-Eight Constellations can’t resist."

Yang Guofeng laughed heartily.

However, his voice sounded somewhat sharp.

"It’s just some mild poison. Why boast here? The reason I can’t kill you."

A large amount of poisonous fog suddenly vanished, and then Yang Guofeng noticed that Zhang Yuelu’s palm had a mouth.

The black air was being continuously sucked into the mouth.

In the end, it even burped.

This infuriated Yang Guofeng.

His arms regrew instantly.

"Intercepting Fist, Second Generation, Double Dragon Out to Sea."

He threw out his arms again, like two ferocious snakes lunging at Zhang Yuelu.

But mid-air, one of the arms suddenly veered, smashing towards Lady Bat.

At this moment, Lady Bat was holding a mirror and applying lipstick. She snapped her fingers, and left her original place.

"Don’t bother with such insignificant tricks. The probing should end, bring it on."

Zhang Yuelu beckoned to Yang Guofeng.

"Fine, I’ll show you my true power."

"Million Flying Punches."

Yang Guofeng took a deep breath, his muscles fully expanding. His fists swung at a rate of a hundred per second.

Countless fist shadows blossomed in the air.

Zhang Yuelu produced the Golden Light Gu, while Lady Bat strolled leisurely amidst the fist winds.

"Is this all you’ve got? Truly a guard dog."

Zhang Yuelu said disdainfully.

"I originally held you in higher regard."

"But your skills are disappointing."

"Sealing Gu."

A gu insect appeared suddenly on Yang Guofeng’s forehead, spewing countless threads.

Enveloped Yang Guofeng completely; before being sealed, Yang Guofeng realized Dong Dafu was the real smart one.

He was just a fool; while both were sealed, Dong Dafu’s Golden Silk Nanmu coffin was intact.

His own coffin was destroyed.

He regretted it.

Lady Bat held two cyan-white stones called Moonlight Stone.

These stones, when placed in high places, can absorb Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and Moonlight.

Yet the Mao Family used them to absorb Evil Qi—a true waste.

"These Moonlight Stones have been tainted by corpse and evil qi—such a waste of material."

"Ye Bai must be tired of waiting now. Let’s go."

Lady Bat snapped her fingers, and they returned to the original clearing instantly.

"Back?"

Ye Bai said smilingly.

The strongest in the entire building were Dong Dafu and Yang Guofeng.

Other zombies were nothing to fear.

"Whew, the Mao Family’s issues are severe—indescribable."

"We’ve found plenty of evidence; once we’re in Corpse City, we can prosecute them."

"Paperman Nan, since your true form is with us, why not just tell me Corpse City’s location."

Ye Bai asked without reservation.

A sigh came from the paperman in Ye Bai’s hand.

"How did you see through my disguise?"

"I didn’t show a single flaw."

Paperman Nan found it strange.

"What’s the big deal? I’ve been with Paper Puppets for long enough to distinguish real from fake."

"You guided us here intentionally, did you want to see our power?"

"Now that you’ve seen their strength, are you reassured?"

Paperman Nan still looked like a paperman.

"I can cooperate, but you must promise me one thing."

"The Papercrafter lineage must leave Corpse City safely."

"Find us a place where we can live peacefully."

"I can give you top-secret information."

Paperman Nan’s gaze lingered on Zhang Tian’an.

Ye Bai quickly sensed the anomaly.

"No need to say, we already know."

"We came as ordered; otherwise, why would Zhang Tian’an join my team."

"Former Kuimu Wolf and Heart Moon Fox are in Corpse City, right?"

Ye Bai asked Paperman Nan.

"How do you know?"

Paperman Nan showed a surprised expression.

Such top-secret information—how did Kuimu Wolf know?

"No need to worry about how I know. I already know that piece of top-secret information. What else can you exchange?"

Ye Bai said with a sly smile, looking like a little fox.

"Well."

Paperman Nan had plenty of information, but much of it couldn’t see the light of day.

Speaking out could cause trouble.

"Alright, let’s head to Corpse City first."

Paperman Nan gritted his teeth, "Wait, I have one more crucial piece of information."

"In exchange, the Papercrafter lineage needs your protection."

Ye Bai nodded.

"Tell me the content. If it’s indeed as you say, I’ll agree."

Paperman Nan eventually revealed another piece of information: "Exotic Beast Zombies want to rebel against Mao Shiba. Their leader wants to join the war in the Sea God Abyss."

Ten Thousand Changes Butterfly flapped its wings, chewing on a huge bone, eating voraciously.

Since evolving, it fretted neither meat nor vegetables—if it’s tasty, it’ll take a bite.

Netherworld Hell Wolf then retreated into Ye Bai’s shadow.

"Exotic Beast Zombie, what is that?"

Ye Bai was quite curious.

"Exotic Beast Zombies are created through technological means by combining an Exotic Beast’s corpse with Celestial Master Dao magic and refining it into zombies."

"They are the elite troops under Mao Shiba."

"Consider them Mao Shiba’s guard troops."

"They all want to revolt, indicating Mao Shiba’s days are numbered."

Paperman Nan said with great sentiment.

"Whether Mao Shiba’s days are numbered, I don’t know."

"But can Exotic Beast Zombies truly be trusted?"

"Mao Shiba might be testing whether there are any zombies wanting to rebel through their words."

"It’s likely Mao Shiba already knows about your escapades in Corpse City."

"They know you’ve defected."

"So if you want the Papercrafter lineage to continue surviving, stop circling around and take us to Corpse City promptly."

"Else Mao Shiba’s wrath might lead to total extermination of the Papercrafter lineage."

Ye Bai’s words were not without reason.

Paperman Nan shook his head, "You can stop trying to sow discord. I won’t be your flag-bearer."

"Though I was made and became the paperman ancestor for the Papercrafter lineage, I’m not their slave."

"With centuries of looking after the Papercrafter lineage, I’ve already done enough."

"Their life or death doesn’t hold much concern for me now."

Paperman Nan didn’t want to be coaxed by Ye Bai into confronting Mao Shiba.

"Alright then," Ye Bai said with a regretful face.

If Paperman Nan could act, Ye Bai would be much relieved.

"We should head to Corpse City."

"Paperman Nan, where exactly is Corpse City?"

Ye Bai asked.

"Corpse City lies within the Beimang Mountain Range."

"It’s infamous as a burial pit. Many emperors have been laid to rest there too."

"The corpse energy is sky-high; hence Mao Shiba chose it to be Corpse City."

"It’s been run by Mao Shiba for a long time, secure as a fortress." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

"He stationed an elite zombie troop at the foot of Beimang Mountain."

"This troop is Mao Shiba’s elite unit; he once claimed even the National Pillar couldn’t break its defenses."

"That’s the first hurdle to entering Corpse City."

"The second hurdle is the peculiar environment of the Beimang Mountain."

"It’s a world where the living is barred, only the dead survive."

"Don’t think a Yin Evil Talisman allows you to pretend as a zombie to enter."

"Don’t even think about it."

"Because yin evil qi penetrates directly into your bone marrow."
