I Bit Everyone and Became the Strongest Zombie Cultivator

Chapter 61: Complementary Compliment

"Wait, how come it's so big?!" I exclaimed as my head darted around the Red Sea Shelter. "Were my eyes playing tricks on me?"

Wu Yan covered her mouth as she quietly chuckled. "No, Yong Rui, your eyes weren't playing any tricks on you. The Red Sea Shelter may look its size from the outside, but its space is distorted inside. That's why it's five times bigger than how it looked like outside."

"Ahh, I've heard of this phenomenon... but if it's distorted space, doesn't that mean someone put up an array around Red Sea Shelter? Which person has the ability to do that?" I asked.

"It's Shelter Leader. He has the space element. That's why he can distort space. Although he's not that proficient at it, he still managed to put up such an intricate array. I remember he almost exhausted his Qi Energy back then."

"At that time, he was also protecting everyone. It was quite a feat how he managed to put up the Inner Space Array while fighting all those zombies." Wu Yan explained.

"I can't believe that Shen Rong managed to do it all by himself. Completing a complicated array while shielding everyone from the rabid humans... " If I were in his position, I don't think I'd have accomplished something like that.

I continuously admired the Red Sea Shelter as Wu Yan and I walked side by side. I didn't know how it came to this but after Shen Rong's exit a few minutes ago, Wu Yan and I just happened to found ourselves sight-seeing inside the Red Sea Shelter.

A date? Is this considered a date? Hah~ I wish.

"The Red Sea Shelter is a place where six families, or should I say clans, live together. We all have our differences in our views but we try to live together in harmony. I'm from the Wu Family, and Liu Zhi is from the Liu Family. Each and every head of the family belongs to the congress under the Shelter Leader. They are assigned to enforce the laws and watch over the Shelter to assist Shelter Leader."

"I see, now that sounds more or less like a Shelter if you ask me," I commented.

"Now that I think about it, the Tang Shelter is also like that... but there, there were at least eight families. That's right, Tang Shelter is much bigger than Red Sea Shelter." Wu Yan continued.

"Really? The Tang Shelter really lives up to its name, huh." I said to myself, feeling rather proud.

My disciples, they've really gone above and beyond my expectations. "In this life, it's the ones pushed off the nest that soars off through the sky higher than their predecessors."

"What are you getting sentimental for, Yong Rui?" Wu Yan asked, suppressing yet another outburst of a chuckle coming out from her mouth. "You're not that old to be getting this sentimental."

"You don't even know my age, for all we know, I may be a sixty-year-old geezer." I joked.

"If you were a sixty-year-old geezer, what would that make me? A seventy-year-old grandma?"

"If you were a grandma, then you're the most beautiful grandma I've ever seen."

Upon saying that, I've received an elbow towards my sides. "Well, compliment or not, thanks for the compliment!" Wu Yan warmly smiled as she wrapped her arms around mine next.

Since I didn't know what to do after Wu Yan wrapped her arms around mine, I decided to just leave it at that as we leisurely strolled around Red Sea Shelter.

As we passed by an ancient building painted with red and gold, I noticed that there was such a crowd waiting outside. All the people that were in the crowd were of different ages but those ones who were in the middle of their twenties and thirties were all warming up and equipping their full-body armors. It was obvious that such a contest is about to happen right now.

"What's happening here?" I asked out of curiosity. I could tell that the cultivation of these people was in the Peak Emperor Realm, and some were even in the King Realm.

"Oh, this is just a friendly bout between the families. We have it once every season. This is called the Red Sea Tournament." Wu Yan explained. "Even people from other shelters have visited right now, trying to obtain the top prize of the tournament."

"Which is?"

"It's a spirit beast with Emperor-Level growth rate." Wu Yan continued. "As you may know, cultivators can fuse their souls with a spirit beast, allowing them to access its attributes and further improve their cultivation. A spirit beast is not that rare, but a spirit beast with an Emperor-Level growth rate is so rare since their power is on par with someone in the Emperor Realm. Someone can even breakthrough to the next realm just by fusing with a super powerful spirit beast. That's why these competitions are held in high regard amongst the current generation."

"Last time, Shelter Leader Shen Rong managed to catch an Ice Wolf Spirit Beast. It was also given as the top prize in the Red Sea Tournament."

"An Ice Wolf Spirit Beast? Isn't that a powerful spirit beast that has control over the ice attribute? Shen Rong was willing to just give it to someone?" I asked, pretending that I didn't know anything about spirit beasts.

I perfectly knew that spirit beasts with Emperor-level growth rate are useless for someone in the Dao Realm. And it's also a given that one can only fuse with one spirit beast, and releasing one from a fusion would not only hurt the cultivator but there's a great chance that that cultivator would suffer and become a cripple. That's why, in my past life, I've never risked fusing with a spirit beast.

"Yes, speak of the devil. That guy right there, with white hair and blue eyes, he's the one who managed to get the Ice Wolf Spirit Beast." Wu Yan pointed to a guy with phoenix-like eyes and curly hair. He was talking to a group of twenty-year-olds and from his aura, I could tell that he's a friendly person.

"Wait! This is basically cheating!"

"Why are you back here?! Didn't you win the Spirit Beast last time?"

"Yeah! Get out of here."

Suddenly, a commotion arose among the crowd as they recognize the guy with the Ice Spirit Wolf Beast.
