The man in the black cloak raised his sleeve and paused in mid-air, turning to look at the "charred corpse" on the ground, his eyebrows slightly raised in a hint of surprise.
Beneath the peeled-off charred skin, a section of bone as white as jade was exposed, supplemented with a layer of dense blood-red blood vessels, yet it bore no trace of flesh and blood attached to it.
Subsequently, a series of "crackling" noises ensued as the charred skin of the "corpse" peeled off one piece after another, revealing a complete skeleton, which appeared exceedingly eerie.
"He clearly showed no signs of life just now, this..." the man in the black robes muttered in a slight daze.
As he spoke, the jawbone of the charred corpse suddenly moved, opening and closing subtly as if chewing on something.
Along with a green light emerging from its throat, a rich concentration of Heavenly and Earthly Spiritual Qi began to emanate from its body.
