Zhou Tong and the bloody corpse were confronting each other in this completely sealed tomb chamber.
At this moment, Zhou Tong was no longer so afraid. Perhaps it was because of anger, or perhaps it was because of self-blame, but in short, in these few short minutes, Zhou Tong seemed to have grown a lot.
"Come on, beast, let's see who can walk out of here!”
Zhou Tong was the first to launch an attack, his left hand throwing a steel bead at the bloody corpse at an extremely fast speed, directly striking the bloody corpse's golden mask.
The powerful strength coupled with Zhou Tong's technique of exerting force caught the bloody corpse off guard and sent it staggering. A small hole was also formed in the golden mask by Zhou Tong's steel beads.
Although Zhou Tong was young and small, his strength and attack were not light at all. Zhou Tong's attack had thoroughly infuriated the blood corpse, and it roared as it pounced at Zhou Tong.
At this moment, he could see the advantage of being small. With a height of over 1.3 meters, Zhou Tong rolled like a donkey and dodged the bloody corpse's attack.
While the bloody corpse was looking for him, he threw the short spear like a dart, and the tip of the spear pierced the bloody corpse's golden mask.
By judging the depth of the golden mask and the spear tip, Zhou Tong knew that this attack hadn't had much of an effect.
But Zhou Tong, who had already freed his hands, possessed an extremely terrifying strength in this sealed environment.
He grabbed a handful of steel balls with both hands and threw them at the bloody corpse. However, most of them were thrown at the bloody corpse's joints.
Zhou Tong hoped that he could smash the joints through repeated attacks. Although the blood corpse did not feel any pain, the damage to the joints would still affect the blood corpse's movement speed.
The man and the corpse seemed to be playing a game of cat and mouse. The bloody corpse continued to chase, while Zhou Tong fled. Occasionally, after pulling some distance away, Zhou Tong would throw steel beads at the bloody corpse's joints with all his might.
As time passed, the air in the tomb grew thinner and thinner. At the very beginning, Old Zhang's torch was on the verge of extinguishing. In other words, if Zhou Tong could not control the bloody corpse before the torch extinguished, he would undoubtedly die.
"We'll have to take a little risk. If this drags on, we'll definitely be dragged to death.”
The strength of the steel balls was not enough. Even with his strength twice that of an adult, it was still difficult to pose a threat to the corpse.
As for destroying the joints? It was too difficult. He did not know what kind of species the bloody corpse was, but its joints were extremely hard.
The only way now was to use sharper, higher-quality short spears to attack.
The plan had already been decided, and all that was left was to execute it. Zhou Tong did not choose to flee this time, nor did he choose to use the steel beads to attack the bloody corpse's joints.
Instead, when the bloody corpse ran towards him, he would throw the steel balls at the support point under the bloody corpse's feet to make it lose its center. Only then would he have a chance to retrieve the short gun.
The plan went according to Zhou Tong's calculations. After the bloody corpse stepped on the steel ball, it lost its center of gravity and fell heavily to the ground. Zhou Tong's eyes and hands moved quickly, seizing the opportunity when the bloody corpse was about to get up.
Rushing forward, Zhou Tong firmly grabbed the short spear and pulled it out. However, Zhou Tong had clearly underestimated a creature like the bloody corpse.
Although sliding would affect the zombie's center of gravity, it would not affect its movements!
Zhou Tong had just received the short spear when he felt his ankle being grabbed, and then he was flung out by a tremendous force, crashing heavily against the Subduing Dragon Stele.
Just this one blow caused Zhou Tong to vomit blood, but fortunately, he didn't lose the short spear in his hand.
"Cough cough…This beast is really strong!"
Blood filled Zhou Tong's mouth, but the fishy smell of the blood did not make him feel bad. The Blood Corpse's attack did not make Zhou Tong feel afraid, but rather excited.
His fear of the bloody corpse was swept away, and he became extremely excited.
At this moment, Zhou Tong seemed to have activated a special attribute. The temperature of his body rapidly rose, and an idea suddenly appeared in his mind: his blood could have an effect on the Blood Corpses.
There was no source, no cause. This thought had inexplicably appeared in Zhou Tong's mind, even though Zhou Tong had believed that his blood would have some effect on the Blood Corpse before meeting it.
However, after facing the bloody corpse alone, this idea was naturally dispelled. It was not that he was not confident, but he was more willing to believe the scene in front of him.
Why would the bloody corpse, which was impenetrable by weapons, be afraid of human blood? Wasn't this a joke? The movies and TV shows he saw in his previous life were definitely fake.
Just as Zhou Tong was letting his imagination run wild, his body seemed to have an instinctive memory. His left hand grabbed the blade of the short spear and cut his hand!
Zhou Tong's blood wrapped around the short spear, and the blade of the spear seemed to have been coated with a layer of red paint.
Zhou Tong's body began to heat up, as if he had turned into a furnace. The Taotie tattoo once again appeared on Zhou Tong's body. At this moment, Zhou Tong's eyes turned blood-red.
Although he still retained his consciousness, looking at the bloody corpse in front of him, he suddenly had the urge to tear him apart. It was like looking at a newspaper and wanting to tear it apart!
"It's so hot. Looks like I have to bare my upper body. I don't know why, but why do I feel so annoyed when I look at you now?”
Zhou Tong took off his clothes. At this moment, the bloody corpse seemed to have sensed an intense danger and did not dare to approach Zhou Tong.
The half-naked Zhou Tong held his short spear and walked towards the bloody corpse step by step. His movements were neither fast nor slow, forcing the bloody corpse into a corner. Unable to retreat, the bloody corpse furiously roared and pounced towards Zhou Tong.
However, the current Zhou Tong was no longer the Zhou Tong of the past. After activating the bloodline in his body and losing his fear, his strength had increased substantially.
Faced with the bloody corpse pouncing towards him, Zhou Tong also increased his speed and ran towards it, the blade of his short spear ruthlessly stabbing into the bloody corpse's head.
The impact of the bloody corpse's charge, coupled with Zhou Tong's own strength and the spear's blade brushing past Zhou Tong's blood, made it feel like a knife was cutting through tofu. The short spear directly pierced into the bloody corpse's head.
Zhou Tong's current strength was far greater than that of the bloody corpse. The short spear pierced through the bloody corpse's head and continued to move closer to the wall, finally nailing the bloody corpse to the wall of the tomb.
Zhou Tong let go of his short spear and fell from the wall. The instant his foot touched the ground, he slumped to the ground like a deflated balloon, large amounts of sweat streaming down his body as he breathed heavily.
Zhou Tong, who had recovered a bit of his strength, supported his body and moved to the wall, leaning against it.
"System, what happened to me just now? Why do I feel like there are other people in my mind?”
Since ancient times, divine beast bloodlines have their own inherited memories. Just now, the host activated the inherited memories in the bloodline at the moment of crisis.
"Inherited memories in the bloodline? Bloodline system. I remember that my bloodline was activated, not given by the grand prize, right?”
Yes, host. Your body has a certain concentration of Taotie's bloodline, but it's invisible.
The system is merely helping the host to activate the bloodline and activate the invisible characteristics.
"What does the percentage behind bloodline mean?”
Host has already activated 20% of the Taotie bloodline's characteristics.
"The more you use it, the faster it grows?”
As one grew older, the bloodline characteristic would automatically awaken, regardless of whether or not one used it.
Just as Zhou Tong was asking the system about the bloodline, the Second Master's voice sounded from outside the main tomb's Subduing Dragon Stone Stele.
