Zombie Evolution Chapter 47

Chapter 47: Zombie Puppet with Unparalleled Potential

Blood Essence contains soul power. Once consumed, construction of new Blood Essence would require time, an irreplaceable amount of time.

The Hopping Zombie's body stirs a bit, it seemed as if its mind was defending against the alien Blood Essence.

Zhang Yang labors more and creates another drop of Blood Essence from his fingers. He waves his finger to form some profound symbols on a paper tag.

The Hopping Zombie twitches more rapidly, the golden "repress" on his forehead on goes a change and s.h.i.+nes. Zhang Yang kept a pace of drawing. But halfway, the drops of Blood Essence would run dry. So Zhang Yang squeezed out a third droplet of Blood Essence, after three drops of precious Blood Essence, Zhang Yang has finally reached his limits. It would take months for the essence to naturally form again.

But it was well worth it for a zombie puppet. Zhang Yang finishes with some heavy panting from the exhausting project.

The talisman ejects some type of yellow beam straight at the Hopping Zombie's forehead.

"Wen—-"

A symbol replaces the repress symbol and grows to a brighter l.u.s.ter All movement freezes, the struggling ceased and he stood straight without any hints of rebellious notions. Zhang Yang blew a breath of relief, he knew his final step was completed without error.

His talisman finally managed to eliminate the locked soul of the zombie. Instead, his Blood Essence replaced that empty hull, so a part of Zhang Yang was inside the Hopping Zombie. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Zombies live using the influence of Yin Qi, once they reach the Black Soul Zombie realm—the level above the Purple Blood Zombie—their bodies exist and intertwine only with the parts of the souls that they didn't have access to before.

Zhang Yang had just erased that untouched part of his soul in the ancestor.  The next step was to merge his powers with the hull, giving himself complete authority over the beast.

According to the 'Tai Yin Refining Figures', such a process will cost days on end.

Zhang Yang was in no hurry, he laid the ancestor zombie down before popping a Yin Bead to recover.

Ten days later…

Zhang Yang retrieves common blood from his sack, slowly letting it leak over the Hopping Zombie's forehead. Every third day, he's required to slit his wrist in able to feed the talisman.

This talisman was specially made from the 'Tai Yin Refining Figures: Chapter of Corpse Cultivators', it allowed the frequency of Zhang Yang to match with the Hopping Zombie's, allowing his Blood Essence to perfectly merge with the zombie puppet.

"It's been ten days and I've already grasped a connection with the puppet, but it'll take time for me to actually control it"

"Hah… When will I need to stop this brutal wrist slitting?" Zhang Yang frowns with specks of worry.

Twenty days later…

"I have already spent twenty days… Hopefully, this won't extend to years….'

Zhang Yang sighs while slitting his wrists again to feed the talisman its blood income.

One month later…

"… ARGHH, it's already been a month! Is this seriously going to take years?"

Zhang Yang couldn't help but complain as he glared at the lifeless zombie

After half a year…

"Hu. The merging speed is slow, but the results are starting to show. Half a year…do human corpse cultivators take up this much time for a zombie puppet? Or am I just worthless at this?" Zhang Yang places out rapid opinions in his head but doesn't question the 'Tai Yin Refining Figures' directly. This powerful book has saved his life several times, he knew the information it contained was hard to come by.

However, in the end, Zhang Yang has felt particular changes, such as the cells of the zombie evolving and his realm leaping to the early stages of Walking Zombie.

As time pa.s.ses, the resemblance of Zhang Yang to this zombie were nearly the same, it was hard to depict the two. Because of Zhang Yang's nurturing, the zombie will slowly change to a clone of Zhang Yang.

"I spent so much time and resources on you, you better not let me down."

A year pa.s.ses…

The Level 2 Walking Zombie laid against a wall. In this past year, the ancestor zombie managed to absorb Yin Qi to break to the second level of Walking Zombie.

"Almost there! Success is right in front of me." Zhang Yang couldn't help but express his excitement.

"I can clearly feel it. He and my Blood Essence already merged, the puppet dream might really come true! I can already feel a blood relation with this zombie."

"Man. I already gave you buckets of my blood, please don't be a failure in the final step…" He reminds himself that failure would be a valid unfortunate possibility.

Then Zhang Yang cuts his wrists again, tapping into three more drops of Blood Essence.

Although Zhang Yang felt weak, his determination made him unstoppable.

The talisman was finally complete, after dropping the Blood Essence, he yells.

"Ji!"

A blind light glimmers and soon symbols acc.u.mulated on the forehead of the zombie, swirling in harmony like a whirlpool.

Kacha!

Something breaks.

The puppet finally reveals his eye, his lids slowly unveiling.

Zhang Yang smiles. This was a kind of blood relations.h.i.+p words couldn't describe. And now, Zhang Yang knows that he has complete control over this zombie, he must obey his every command.

This puppet is not as rigid as the puppet from the Corpse Refining Sect. Zhang Yang had used his soul in order to revive this zombie, his wisdom should be on par with Zhang Yang's.

This zombie also has more potential than any other zombie, with a decent cultivation, it was already worth the time.

At this moment, Zhang Yang has decided that his allotted time for this work was well worth it.
