Turns Out, I’m In A Villain Clan! Chapter 701 The Undying Refined Corpses
Previously on Turns Out, I’m In A Villain Clan!...
Five Bai Clan Earth Immortals immediately stepped forward to intercept the remaining Golden Immortal refined corpse.
They knew perfectly well that defeating it would not be easy.
A Golden Immortal was still a Golden Immortal.
Even as a refined corpse, the difference between its cultivation and theirs was enormous.
Boom!
The Golden Immortal corpse descended.
A terrifying fist crashed downward.
The five Earth Immortals immediately scattered.
BOOM!!!
The ground exploded. A massive crater appeared beneath them.
However, none of the five had been injured.
"Keep it occupied!"
One of the Bai Clan elders shouted.
That was their objective from the beginning.
They did not need to defeat the Golden Immortal corpse.
They only needed to make sure that it could not freely attack the weaker Bai Clan cultivators.
As long as they could contain it, that was enough.
And despite the enormous difference in cultivation, the five Earth Immortals were not completely helpless.
The Golden Immortal corpse possessed terrifying physical strength.
It did not fear death.
It did not hesitate.
It did not care about injuries.
Every attack it launched was direct and ruthless.
However, it also had an obvious weakness. Its intelligence was limited.
After becoming a refined corpse, its combat instincts remained.
But its ability to think, adapt, and make complicated decisions was nowhere near that of a living Golden Immortal.
The five Earth Immortals immediately took advantage of that weakness.
Boom!
One elder attacked from the front.
The Golden Immortal corpse immediately turned toward him.
At the same time—
Slash!
Another attack struck from behind.
The corpse ignored the attack and swung its arm backward.
However, by the time its attack landed, the Bai Clan elders had already retreated.
Boom!
Another technique descended from above.
Then another.
Then another.
The five Earth Immortals moved constantly.
They never remained in one place.
They never confronted the Golden Immortal corpse directly for long.
Instead, they continuously attacked, retreated, distracted it, and pulled it away from the main battlefield.
The Golden Immortal corpse roared silently.
Its attacks became increasingly violent.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Every strike shattered the ground. Several buildings collapsed.
Yet despite its terrifying power, it was unable to kill any of the five Earth Immortals.
The Bai Clan experts were simply too coordinated.
Whenever one of them was targeted, the other four immediately intervened.
And whenever the corpse attempted to break through their encirclement, another attack would force it back.
They were not trying to defeat it.
They were merely buying time.
And that was more than enough.
Meanwhile, the reinforcement provided by the Gu Master had undoubtedly made the battle more difficult for the Bai Clan.
The Shen Clan, which had previously been completely overwhelmed, finally found an opportunity to breathe.
The Earth Immortal refined corpses had joined the battlefield.
The Immortal Ascension Realm corpses had also begun attacking.
For the first time since the Bai Clan launched its assault, the Shen Clan cultivators no longer felt completely helpless.
"Attack!"
"Don't retreat!"
"Kill them!"
The Shen Clan elders began shouting once again.
Their confidence slowly returned.
Previously, they had been slaughtered without any ability to resist.
But now, with the refined corpses fighting alongside them, the pressure on the Shen Clan had greatly decreased.
Some Shen Clan cultivators even began counterattacking.
However—
That was all.
The Gu Master's appearance had made the battle harder. But it has not reversed the situation.
The refined corpses were not sweeping through the Bai Clan's ranks and slaughtering cultivators left and right.
The Bai Clan's experts were still stronger.
Their techniques were still superior.
Their artifacts were still better.
The Shen Clan had merely gone from being completely crushed to barely being able to resist somewhat.
And elsewhere, Bai Chu finally clashed with the two Golden Immortal refined corpses.
The first corpse appeared before him.
Bai Chu raised his Saint Grade Sword.
A terrifying sword light shot forward.
Slash!
The attack cut directly toward the Golden Immortal corpse.
The corpse immediately raised its arm.
BOOM!!!
The attack collided with its body.
The Golden Immortal corpse was forced several steps backward.
A deep wound appeared across its arm. However, Bai Chu did not have time to continue his attack.
Boom!
The second Golden Immortal corpse had already arrived. Its fist crashed toward Bai Chu.
Bai Chu's expression remained calm.
The Saint Grade Sword moved.
The attack that had been aimed at the first corpse instantly changed.
From offense—
To defense.
Clang!!!
The sword blocked the incoming fist. A terrifying shockwave erupted.
Bai Chu was pushed backward.
Before he could stabilize himself, the first Golden Immortal corpse attacked again.
Boom!
One corpse attacked from the front.
The other attacked from behind.
They showed no hesitation.
No fear.
No concern for their own safety.
They attacked relentlessly.
Again and again.
Bai Chu's sword moved continuously.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Each collision produced terrifying shockwaves.
The ground beneath them gradually collapsed.
Buildings in the surrounding area were destroyed by the overflowing energy.
However, the two refined corpses continued advancing.
They did not slow down.
They did not hesitate.
That was the terrifying nature of refined corpses.
They were already dead.
Pain meant nothing to them.
Fear meant nothing to them.
As long as their master gave the command, they would continue attacking until their bodies were completely destroyed.
Bai Chu's eyes narrowed.
Then—
Slash!
A small sword light flashed. The attack struck the first Golden Immortal corpse.
A wound appeared across its shoulder.
However, the corpse did not even react.
It continued attacking.
Boom!
Bai Chu blocked another strike.
Then—
Slash!
Another sword light struck the second corpse.
A deep wound appeared across its chest. Still, there was no reaction.
The Gu Master watched from a distance.
A sneer appeared on his face.
Bai Chu's attacks were landing. However, they were not causing any meaningful damage.
The wounds were simply not deep enough. And even when they were injured, the refined corpses did not care.
Blood did not matter.
Pain did not matter.
Unless Bai Chu could completely destroy their bodies or inflict truly devastating damage, such injuries were meaningless.
More importantly, his refined corpses possessed terrifying regenerative abilities.
He didn't think that those small attacks would amount to anything.
The Gu Master's smile widened.
"You're just wasting your time."
Bai Chu continued moving.
Slash!
Another sword light struck one of the corpses.
The Gu Master merely watched with amusement.
In his eyes, Bai Chu was wasting both his Qi and his strength.
The refined corpses could continue fighting for an extremely long time. But Bai Chu was different.
His stamina was limited.
The longer the battle continued, the more disadvantageous it would become for him.
And eventually, he would fall.
The Gu Master's gaze became increasingly greedy.
Bai Chu!
The Saint Grade Sword!
Both would soon belong to him.
However, as Bai Chu continued defending against the two Golden Immortal corpses, a faint smile slowly appeared on his face.
Bai Chu's eyes were on the Saint Grade Sword in his hand.
Could these refined corpses' regeneration really compare to that of the Half-Qilin?
The answer was obvious.
No!
The Half-Qilin possessed an absurdly powerful bloodline.
Its vitality was monstrous.
Even after suffering serious injuries, it had been capable of recovering at an astonishing speed.
Yet even the Half-Qilin's regeneration had been weakened after being wounded by this sword.
The wounds inflicted by the Saint Grade Sword did not simply heal as easily as ordinary injuries.
The sword itself carried a terrifying power. A power capable of suppressing the regenerative abilities of those it wounded.
If even the Half-Qilin had been affected by it—
How could these refined corpses possibly be an exception?
Bai Chu had already tested it.
The small wounds he had inflicted might appear insignificant.
However, he had not been attacking randomly.
Every strike had been deliberate.
Every wound had been a test.
And the result had already become clear.
Their regeneration was indeed powerful. But it was slowing down.
The Gu Master had yet to notice. And that was good news.
Bai Chu glanced toward the Gu Master.
A faint smile appeared on his face.
It seemed that the Gu Master was completely oblivious.
He still believed that his refined corpses were recovering normally.
He still believed that Bai Chu was merely wasting his Qi.
He still believed that the longer the battle continued, the more advantage he would gain.
But Bai Chu knew better.
His attacks were not meaningless.
Every sword strike was weakening the refined corpses.
Every wound was reducing their ability to recover.
And as those injuries continued to accumulate—
Their terrifying regenerative abilities would eventually become useless.
Boom!
The first Golden Immortal corpse attacked again.
Bai Chu raised his sword.
Clang!!!
The attack was blocked. The second corpse immediately followed.
Boom!
Bai Chu retreated.
Then—
Slash!
Another sword light flashed. A new wound appeared across the corpse's chest.
The Gu Master sneered.
"Keep attacking."
His voice echoed toward the two refined corpses.
"Don't give him a chance to breathe."
The two corpses immediately increased their attacks.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Their fists descended relentlessly.
Bai Chu's body moved continuously.
Sometimes defending.
Sometimes retreating.
Sometimes launching another seemingly insignificant attack.
To the Gu Master, every one of those attacks was a waste. But Bai Chu's expression remained calm.
Another wound.
Then another.
Then another.
The injuries on the two Golden Immortal refined corpses gradually increased.
And although the Gu Master had not noticed it yet—
The wounds were no longer healing as quickly as before.
Bai Chu tightened his grip around the Saint Grade Sword. A cold light flashed through his eyes.
"Let's see how long you can keep regenerating."
