Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

Chapter 66: Chapter 66: Grudge of the Obstructed Path

Hearing this, Wen Jiu’s face froze.

It unexpectedly was exactly as he thought, Gong Chi planned to keep him at Feixian Peak and wanted to take him as a disciple.

Without waiting for Wen Jiu to speak, Gong Chi spoke again, not giving Wen Jiu a moment to hesitate, ”On the main peak, the discrimination against the Heterodox Dao would be even more severe than at Feixian Peak. Even with your Qi Cultivation Second Layer, you might not be treated better than a normal First-Layer Qi Cultivation Cultivator, even if you pass the test. You’ve seen the Blood Robe Tower these days, heard about the Blood Demon Abyss, Liu Xiao is crippled, Mu Canglong’s fate is unknown, and other Night Patrol Department disciples don’t need further explanation. You should understand why the Heterodox Dao is not favored.”

”I understand.”

Wen Jiu nodded.

But inside, he found it amusing; others might say this sincerely, but why would Gong Chi say this?

He definitely planned to go to the main peak; a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall.

There were only seven elders at Feixian Peak, but two were undercover, and the remnants of Blood Robe Tower were constantly eyeing Feixian Peak.

So the current situation was not suited for him to stay, even if Corpse Remains Death Land could steadily provide death energy and Yin energy.

Moreover, he had already absorbed most of the blood energy from Corpse Remains Death Land, staying longer would only get death energy and Yin energy, where would he get the blood energy needed to cultivate Yin Evil Blood Curse Body and Blood Ghost Hand?

But Gong Chi’s intention was clearly that he did not want him to participate in the examination or go to the main peak to cultivate.

The reason for this was currently unknown, but it was certain that he wanted to drag him into muddy waters.

The Heterodox Talent he displayed could earn him cultivation at Feixian Peak, which would naturally attract real Heterodox Demons.

Seeing Wen Jiu nod, Gong Chi smiled with satisfaction, ”It’s good you understand, it’s not that I don’t want you to go to the main peak, but the main peak isn’t the most suitable place for you. I don’t want to see you get buried at the main peak... As the saying goes, better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix, you’ve heard this before.”

”I’ve heard it, and understand Elder Gong’s intention, but suddenly wanting to take me as a disciple, I feel quite anxious.”

Wen Jiu didn’t immediately nod, nor did he immediately shake his head.

Nodding to become a disciple.

Too fake.

Gong Chi might not believe it.

Immediately shaking his head.

Who knows what Gong Chi might do?

The best way was to delay.

The Black Corpse would transform into Three Evil Corpses within about ten days, and dealing with Gong Chi could be handled then. If he was determined to block the path, he would have to resort to ruthless measures.

He was not without trump cards.

This trump card he wouldn’t easily play, but once he did, Gong Chi, a Side Peak Elder, wouldn’t be able to withstand it.

”Give me the answer within ten days.” However, Gong Chi was not one to be easily fooled; ten days later would be the start of the examination.

If Wen Jiu hadn’t given an answer by then, Gong Chi would likely act directly.

Wen Jiu clasped his hands in respect, deliberately showing a complex expression, after all, his character was that of a young newcomer, being too calm would seem fake, ”I will seriously consider it and not waste Elder Gong’s good intentions.”

”Go now.”

Gong Chi waved his hand.

Wen Jiu turned and left.

But long after Wen Jiu left, Gong Chi still didn’t retract that pair of eyes tightly staring at Wen Jiu’s back.

A moment later.

Gong Chi slowly withdrew his gaze.

Muttering to himself.

”Such a Heterodox Dao genius, sending him to the main peak is truly a pity... Recruiting him into the Celestial Left Alliance would be a great achievement.”

...

All the way back in haste.

Returning home, Wen Jiu gulped down two cups of water quickly, confusing his sister Wen Ya who came quickly upon hearing the commotion.

Somewhat worried.

”What’s wrong?”

Wen Jiu shook his head, ”Nothing, just pondering an important life decision.”

He was worried about eavesdroppers, so he didn’t say much.

If Gong Chi heard this, it would be the best answer.

Seeing this, Wen Ya didn’t ask further, just comforted, ”No need to worry, just make your choice boldly. If it ends up being wrong, your sister will be here with you!”

”Mm-hmm.”

Wen Jiu nodded.

Looked deeply at his sister Wen Ya.

Instantly made up his mind.

He must go to the main peak.

Whoever blocks the path.

Will fall.

After clearing his thoughts, Wen Jiu immediately rushed to Corpse Remains Death Land, then began fully activating Corpse Eye to absorb the blood energy from the center of Corpse Remains Death Land, using it to cultivate the Ghost-faced Butcher and the Blood Transformation Body of the Black Corpse.

He aimed to rapidly cultivate the Black Corpse into Three Evil Corpses and elevate Blood Transformation Body to Fourth Layer.

Thus.

Over the next few days, Wen Jiu immersed himself in Corpse Remains Death Land, harvesting five to six hundred essence blood in just five days. His Cultivator’s Essence Blood Balance officially reached six thousand five hundred, of which six thousand Wen Jiu kept untouched.

Only using the remainder to cultivate Ghost-faced Butcher, though the results remained excellent, steadily cultivating Yin Soul comparable to Qi Cultivation First Layer to Qi Cultivation Second Layer, but the Yin Souls in Corpse Remains Death Land were dwindling.

Currently, the souls drawn were wandering souls outside of Feixian Peak, much inferior compared to those drawn from Corpse Remains Death Land.

Thus, cultivating them consumed more ghost energy.

But Wen Jiu wasn’t concerned with that now.

First, exhaust Corpse Remains Death Land, especially since he wouldn’t be returning.

Simultaneously, Wen Jiu occasionally sneaked to Baihua Mountain Trading Market to sell Tier-Entering Soul-Seizing Talismans, increasing his visits from once every six to seven days to once every three days, even selling top Tier-One Lower Grade Soul-Seizing Talismans.

Once the Black Corpse transformed into Three Evil Corpses and the Blood Transformation Body reached Third Layer, the Tier-One Lower Grade Soul-Seizing Talisman would be of little use to him, so converting it all into cash to cultivate Corpse Blood was more practical.

Unfortunately, even drawing on his Spiritual Power to craft talismans daily, he could only produce around twenty a day.

At most only one of superior quality.

Hoping to rely on it within ten days to elevate Blood Transformation Body to Fourth Layer, economic resources wouldn’t allow it, ultimately he would still need to use Cultivator Essence Blood.

But not much.

Perhaps only four or five hundred would be needed; in any case, Yin Sha Blood Curse Body couldn’t be cultivated currently, using these four or five hundred would be fine, recovering later wouldn’t be difficult.

It must be said.

This is the advantage of accumulating resources.

If not for the accumulation of Cultivator Essence Blood on regular days, he would likely be beset with worry now.

...

In the blink of an eye, several days passed.

As the examination day approached, Inspection Hall members and Feixian Peak Elders still had yet to return.

But fortunately, good news arrived, the Array had been erected, and Slaughter Flame Volcano was gradually stabilizing.

They should return in a few days.

The test may be delayed but not by much.

However, Mu Canglong’s situation was still unknown, whether dead or alive remained unseen, leaving Wen Jiu puzzled.

What puzzled Wen Jiu even more was the inactivity from Blood Robe Tower, did they really cause such a big commotion in Blood Demon Abyss just to trigger Slaughter Flame eruption and incite chaos?

Just as Wen Jiu thought hard about this, experience for Law-Devouring Yin Insect filled up, successfully mutated and fused with his Yin Technique.

He had gained another trump card.
