*The bone saw grated through ribs with a sickening crunch. Golden tattoos blazed on Lin Wan's wrist as her phone pulsed crimson: [23:17:42]. The E-Pixiu icon flickered like a distress beacon.*
"Dissect you or become you..." She yanked her blood-smeared gloves tighter. "I choose the knife!"
The scalpel pierced the pericardium—her left hand suddenly plunged into the chest cavity!
New memories detonated:
-A blood-jade bracelet snapped onto a bride's wrist. Mad laughter echoed: "You'll be the core of my corpse array, dear sister!"
Blackened nails scraped coffin wood. Blood-tears fell on a hairpin carved with sigils...
The E-Pixiu icon projected a hologram:
[RESENTMENT ABSORBING...5%...17%...]
[WARNING: ZHEN SHA SECRET TECHNIQUE DETECTED - BONE-SEEKING TRACER]
The zombie's heart throbbed against her palm. Gold veins spiderwebbed up her fingers!
"Clink!"
Forceps extracted the heart. Lin Wan's breath hitched—
Chinese zodiac characters scarred the tissue:
Xin Mao, Gui Si, Yi Wei
Her exact birth date!
As the heart disconnected, blue light exploded from the phone!
A mechanical pixiu cub leaped out, devouring swirling resentment.
"Grble~" It nuzzled her bloody glove, tail brushing the zombie's arm—
Rot sloughed off to reveal a brand: [COMMAND: XIANGXI CORPSE KING]
Lights died. Cold breath grazed her neck in the dark:
"Found my array core..."
Lin Wan whirled, scalpel stabbing toward the voice—
Blades caught between two fingers. Moonlight glinted on a gold hairpin slipping from the intruder's sleeve, its patterns identical to the coffin memory!
