Chapter 2428


    Warren started feeling fearful because he felt that the ce was too strange.


    Right when he was debating if he should continue cultivating, waves of scornfulughter chimed from a


    nearby corner.


    Someone is here!


    At that instant, he broke out in a cold sweat. He swiftly dashed toward the corner to examine it, only to


    realize that there were pits everywhere.


    Suddenly, he caught sight of a shadow sitting quietly like a statue in one of the pits.


    He was so sure that it was a shadow and not a person because it had no body!


    This is so creepy! What on earth is going on? Warren''s bafflement intensified.


    As far as he knew, the technique of separating a shadow from its body was only practiced in


    Netherworld.


    Why is there a lonely shadow without the body here? Is it from Netherworld too?


    Warren questioned fiercely, “Who are you? Why did you show up in this ce?”


    The other party replied, “I should be the one asking you these questions. Who are you? Why did you


    step foot into my territory?”


    Your territory?


    Confused, Warren stared at him dubiously. “Are you able to show proof that this ce belongs to you?”


    The shadow burst outughing before stating, “I''ve been cultivating here for more than two hundred


    years, and I control all of the dead bodies in this ce. Tell me, is it not my territory?”


    “Really? Do you mean to say that you''re over two hundred years old? Where''s your body? Bring it out


    and enlighten me, please.” Warren tried to provoke it.


    “You''re staring at my body.” The shadow chuckled.

    “Hah! You''ve got to be kidding me! Are you treating me like a fool?” Warren continued, “I''m from


    Netherworld, where people are known to be experts in separating the shadows from their bodies. A


    being and his shadow are one. If the body is dead, the shadow will vanish. It''s absolutely absurd to


    think that either one of them can survive without the other. You''re scared to show me your true form,


    aren''t you?”


    The shadow retorted, “Is that so? You think I don''t dare to reveal myself before you? Fine. I shall do


    just that and see if you have anything more to say!”


    With that, the shadow snapped its fingers, and it was surprisingly loud!


    Thereafter, a cacophony of rustling sounds filled the entire Unholy Valley.


    Warren began to feel ufortable as he heard those spooky noises all around him.


    Panic-stricken, his eyes darted everywhere. Just then, the putrid corpses started moving. They slowly


    propped themselves up and rose to their feet, staring nkly at Warren from empty eye sockets.


    Within moments, an army of walking dead stood upright and stared intently into his eyes with a


    prating gaze that stirred up a sense of fear within his soul.


    At that point, Warren nearly had a mental breakdown.


    Oh my goodness! Am I seeing ghosts?


    The shadow was able to control tens of thousands of dead bodies at the same time. Clearly, Warren


    was not his match.


    I bet these zombies won''t hesitate to pounce on me and devour me alive at hismand.


    When faced with a quandary as such, Warren was left with no choice but to forgo his dignity and pride.


    He pleaded, “Sir, please forgive me for offending and failing to respect you. Please don''t take my words


    to heart.”


    The other party scoffed. “You weren''t wrong to say that the shadow and its body are one, and neither


    one can live without the other. As a matter of fact, all of the corpses here are my body. It''s just that my


    shadow has gone through tremendous cultivation and is now more powerful than my physique. Hence,


    my shadow is my body.”


    After hearing his exnation, a wave of emotions stirred within Warren. Still, he was reeling from the


    shock.


    All the tens of thousands of corpses in Unholy Valley belong to him! Additionally, his shadow is more


    impressive than his body! How invincible exactly is this person?


    Warren dared not specte further.


    One thing was for sure—the other party was certainly beyond what he could handle. The shadow had a


    combat prowess of possibly a hundred times mightier than Warren''s, or even much mightier!


    Thus, Warren tried to be in the shadow''s good books. “May I have the honor to know your great name?


    I see that the technique you used is very simr to those performed in Netherworld. I wonder if you''re


    rted to Netherworld in one way or another.”
