Liu Xisheng swept the area with his divine sense and saw that indeed, almost no high-tier cultivators were left. Those with low cultivation who were protected by their elders were somewhat better off and had all entered the light doors. A handful of Qi Condensation and Foundation Establishment cultivators with strong willpower who had remained clear-headed and had no one to rely on had sensed his power and realized he was saving people, so they had gathered around him as best they could.
Now, corpses resembling humans had appeared all around them, enveloped in baleful qi akin to ghostly energy. This special baleful qi was what made these zombies so ferocious. Although these zombies looked like corpses, they were not ordinary zombies; one could tell from the blood-tinted baleful qi within them and their indestructible bodies that, simply in terms of combat, these special zombies lacked the combat experience of cultivators because their minds seemed rather dull and inflexible.
The reason cultivators had suffered such heavy losses—especially the low-tier cultivators who had died in such numbers—ultimately boiled down to the fact that the environment here was not suited for cultivators to replenish their spiritual energy in time. For a city instantly surrounded by Yin qi and baleful qi, the environmental advantage was a massive advantage for the zombies. Of course, that was still not the main point.
