Lin Xiao meant what he said, and he acted on it.
As soon as he finished speaking, he set off.
On the other side, the action team, who were still placing landmines, suddenly saw a figure.
"What's that?"
Someone looked at Lin Xiao approaching and quickly asked into their earpiece, "Hello! Is there reinforcement? What's going on with that person! Why is he actively approaching the cave where the zombies are!"
"Hurry up and pull him back! We don't know this person!"
Upon hearing this, the team placing landmines immediately set off. They couldn't care about alerting the zombies anymore and shouted loudly, "Come back! Don't go further! There are zombies inside!"
At this point, they didn't care about attracting attention. Their full-speed sprint far surpassed Bolt's. In just two or three seconds, they reached Lin Xiao.
However, they discovered that their speed was no match for Lin Xiao's.
They could only watch as Lin Xiao, leaving afterimages, entered the cave.
"What do we do, leader?!"
Seeing this, the person next to the leader became anxious.
The creatures inside were not to be trifled with! How happy those guys inside must be to have someone entering as food.
The leader pondered for less than a second, gritted his teeth, and said, "Go in! Even if we can't defeat those zombies, our speed is enough. We can lure them into the minefield! Let's hope we're not too late!"
With that, led by him, everyone charged in.
However, they all knew that entering at this moment was a gamble with their lives.
They could only hope that the brat who went in earlier wouldn't die! Otherwise, their risk would be in vain!
But when they entered, the person who had entered the cave earlier was already walking out.
"Did he draw them out?!" The leader was startled and shouted, "Prepare!"
With that, their five-person team prepared to retreat at full speed.
However, as they prepared to retreat with Lin Xiao, they found that Lin Xiao had no intention of running. He was strolling out as if taking a leisurely walk.
"Why aren't you running?!"
The leader roared. If they delayed any longer, they would all die here!
At this moment, Ming Yi also arrived. He said, "Excuse me!"
Then, he passed through the five people and went to Lin Xiao's side.
"Brother Xiao, they weren't completely destroyed, were they?" Ming Yi asked urgently.
"No, at least they were dismembered. All the parts are intact," Lin Xiao replied.
"That's good then."
With that, Ming Yi walked into the cave.
"What..."
The leader felt as if his ears were playing tricks on him. Were the conversation between these two referring to the zombies inside?
This person had dismembered the zombies inside?
He now also realized something was wrong. Logically, their scent, the sound of their breathing, and their voices should have alerted the zombies inside. But even now, no zombies had come out.
Could it be true, that this person had destroyed them?
To be able to destroy a Mao Jiang, was this person... human?
"You, someone lend a hand! Hand... hand... hand..."
Ming Yi's voice echoed through the cave.
Lin Xiao gestured to them, and the action team members instinctively walked in.
When they looked, the zombies that had troubled them for half the day had been reduced to pieces.
Just as Lin Xiao had said, all the parts were intact, and they could be reassembled to restore the original appearance of the zombies.
But...
How was this achieved?
Based on their experience and all the information they knew, their military knives, pistols, and even sniper rifles had no effect on these zombies. But...
The leader shone his light on the parts on the ground.
All the cut surfaces were incredibly smooth. To achieve this, one would need a sharp weapon capable of slicing through metal, and the angle had to be extremely precise to ensure a smooth cut with a single stroke.
But...
He remembered that the person who had just entered wasn't carrying any knives, was he?
How did he manage this?
Meanwhile, Lin Xiao stood at the cave entrance, as if waiting for something.
"Still not coming?"
Lin Xiao shook his head.
He had expected the cultivator who raised the nine zombies to be enraged and show up after he had chopped them to pieces.
But it seemed he had overthought it.
After all, the other party wasn't stupid. He had killed those zombies in an instant. Any normal person would know something was wrong.
He shook his head and, feeling a bit bored, returned to the cave.
Inside the cave, Ming Yi had finally selected a zombie and was signaling the action team members to carry some parts back for research.
"Brother Xiao, help us carry a few pieces back too!"
"Okay."
Lin Xiao casually picked up a leg and slung it over his shoulder.
The action team leader was carrying a torso. He felt that the current situation was almost surreal.
The zombies they had treated with such caution were like child's play in this person's hands? What was going on?
Just like now, he confirmed again.
Lin Xiao was indeed not carrying any sharp weapons on him.
How had he cut these Mao Jiang?
"What... are you looking at?"
Lin Xiao also noticed the team leader's gaze and asked curiously.
"I... am curious, how did you cut these zombies."
The team leader voiced the question.
In fact, it wasn't just him who was curious; all his team members were also wondering how it was possible to cut these Mao Jiang.
If they knew the method, perhaps they could deal with them better in the future.
Then, they saw Lin Xiao raise his hand and say, "It's very simple. When I came, I wrapped my hand with my true energy and made the true energy as sharp as a blade, then I cut down."
"Of course, the speed has to be fast enough, sufficiently swift. If the movements are too slow, it's difficult to achieve such smooth cuts," Lin Xiao added slightly at the end.
"It's that simple?"
"It's that simple."
Lin Xiao nodded with great seriousness.
This left the team leader somewhat confused. He raised his hand, trying his best to do as Lin Xiao said, molding his true energy into a blade-like shape. Then, he put down the torso he was carrying and attempted to make a cut.
Nothing happened.
His true energy only managed to damage the clothing of the Mao Jiang.
He even suspected that the clothing was already damaged and not cut by him.
