Zhang Feng was looking at the limp skeleton, his brow furrowed.

Just as Hu Huixin had said, why did it fail?

Zhang Feng was also curious!

He had clearly sensed the Ghost Gate opening wide. The soul belonging to this skeleton had been extracted, then merged into the bones.

When the skeleton just sat up, it proved that the reanimation had succeeded, right?

But why did it only succeed for an instant, exhausting all its strength immediately?

It shouldn't be....

Zhang Feng slightly lowered his head to inspect the skull.

In the hollow eye sockets, there was nothing, empty as could be.

"Sss... strange..."

Even Zhang Feng murmured softly.

In normal reanimations, once the soul returns to the body, two pale blue flames appear in the hollow eye sockets.

Not real flames, but light resembling flames, indicating the soul's return.

Commonly known as ghost fire.

The ghost fire outside the body is usually phosphorous fire, explainable by science.

But the fire within represents the soul.

The bodies Zhang Feng animated earlier had this, but they weren't skeletons and were covered by skin and flesh.

But this skeleton has nothing to obstruct it!

He was sure he had successfully summoned the spirit and restored the soul.

But why is there no soul fire?

Seeing Zhang Feng's perplexed expression, Hu Huixin was also curious and leaned closer:

"What's up? Why're you brooding?"

Though she was slightly afraid to face the skeleton directly, her curiosity prevailed!

She leaned in close, her head almost touching Zhang Feng's.

It seemed she wanted to see what Zhang Feng was looking at.

But just as she bowed her head, a surprising sound was heard:

"Oh my, is the skeleton's head on fire?!"

"On fire?!" Zhang Feng was startled.

"Even Hu Huixin could see it, why couldn't I..."

Before Zhang Feng could finish questioning himself.

"Puff puff!" Two sounds!

The sound of flames instantly rising was heard.

In the large, hollow eye sockets of the skeleton, flames suddenly ignited.

Now Zhang Feng could see it clearly.

Hu Huixin must have caught sight of the ignition process earlier.

However, Zhang Feng's brow furrowed even tighter, and there was even a sense of apprehension in his eyes!

Because the flames rising in the eye sockets weren't blue, but red!

"Watch out!"

Zhang Feng immediately shouted in a low voice.

Then he reached out to grab Hu Huixin, who was still leaning on the skull, and pulled her back forcefully.

However, the skeleton's movements were also lightning fast.

Its sharp bony fingers instantaneously aimed towards Hu Huixin.

"Rip!"

The clothing on Hu Huixin's chest was instantly pierced and torn apart by the skeleton.

Suddenly, the pudding Zhang Feng saw this morning half-reappeared before his eyes.

But Zhang Feng could not afford to appreciate the scene, neither could the pale-faced Hu Huixin at this moment.

If it weren't for Zhang Feng's quick response, it wouldn't be the clothes but her neck that the fingers would have pierced!

"Thud thud thud thud thud!"

"Crash!" With the recoil, Hu Huixin fell face down on the ground.

But now, she couldn't worry about her pain, crawling frantically, curling quickly into a corner, covering her mouth with both hands, eyes wide open with fear, trembling all over!

Zhang Feng couldn't care about Hu Huixin right now.

He even had a bit of a grumble:

"Damn, why does this chick always encounter corpse transformations when she's watching me animate a corpse?"

"No, wait!"

As soon as he finished grumbling, Zhang Feng realized a new problem:

"This red flame... it's not a corpse transformation! Someone had previously corrupted its soul!!"

"Clatter clatter clatter!"

As Zhang Feng figured out the source of the red flame.

The sound of bones rubbing against each other.

The skeleton, whose eye sockets flickered with red flames, performed a 360-degree backflip in the air despite having no leverage point.

Then it lunged at Zhang Feng with bony fingers waving and a terrifying open mouth.

Fortunately, the skeleton's vocal cords and such had long decayed.

Otherwise, the throat would be emitting a grating, ear-piercing scream now.

"Heaven and Earth Mystic Sect, Root of All Qi!"

Benefiting from restored cultivation, the augmented Golden Light Spell instantly covered Zhang Feng's entire body.

"Clang!"

A sound akin to striking a bell resonated.

The skeleton's two hands sparked brilliantly against Zhang Feng's body!

At the same time, the patrolling colleagues outside at the D City Branch immediately looked up:

"What's that sound?"

With a hint of suspicion, they tightened their grip on their batons, slowly stood up, and cautiously moved towards the source of the sound.

Meanwhile, in the surveillance room, Lin Rui's eyes widened:

"How did the corpse transform again?"

Zhang Feng knew that this corpse transformation was different from the last, but Lin Rui didn't!

She only knew the corpse was attacking Zhang Feng again!

And with a sidelong glance.

Oh my god!

It alarmed others!

What to do?

Are we going to be discovered?

No... no!

"I have to figure out a solution!"

Lin Rui began to worry again!

She turned and rushed out of the monitoring room.

Meanwhile, Zhang Feng in the morgue had no idea what was happening outside.

His gaze was solemn, with golden light flickering in his eyes, as he formed a hand seal, chanting continuously:

"In the eternal coldness, all things remain still; with a tranquil mind, let my spirit be..."

Just like during the previous corpse transformation, the Purifying Heart Formula.

Hoping to awaken the soul's intellect!

But this soul was completely different from the previous one!

The previous soul had grievances that Zhang Feng's Purifying Heart Formula could partially dispel.

But the soul before him was clearly corrupted by something evil.

It had completely lost all consciousness, meaning the Purifying Heart Formula was useless!

"Clatter clatter clatter!"

The skeleton, like a martial arts master, continually launched attacks at Zhang Feng.

However, it was certainly no match for Zhang Feng.

Each attack was effortlessly neutralized by Zhang Feng.

Zhang Feng even used Tai Chi's four-ounce force to overcome a thousand pounds, constantly slamming it hard onto the ground.

The red firelight flickered wildly.

The light momentarily locked onto Hu Huixin, who was shaking in the corner!

It realized it couldn't beat Zhang Feng, and targeted the helpless Hu Huixin instead?

"Thud!" Like a flash, the skeleton lunged at Hu Huixin!

"Ah—!!"

Witnessing this, Hu Huixin, huddling in the corner, finally couldn't hold back, letting out a sharp scream.

"It's too late!" Zhang Feng's gaze flickered.

"It seems awakening its spirit is impossible, is this the only way?"

Zhang Feng's gaze slowly darkened.

A soul corrupted by evil cannot be awakened; it can only... be destroyed!

Instantly, a blue-white arc of electricity appeared in Zhang Feng's eyes, with an entirely different low shout:

"East to Mount Tai Thunder, South to Mount Heng Thunder, West to Mount Hua Thunder, North to Mount Heng Thunder, Center to Mount Song Thunder!"

"Five-Thunder Rapid Emission!"

"Palm Thunder!"
