Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

Chapter 100: Chapter 78: Late Stage of Qi Cultivation Trade, Main Peak Assessment Begins

Ye Chen responded, ”Let’s give it a try... In any case, if we are not satisfied, we will proceed with the deal.”

”Alright!”

Xiang Wenlong nodded.

...

Meanwhile.

Wen Jiu returned from the Earth Treasure Pavilion, successfully purchasing the Blood Evil Crystal.

What delighted Wen Jiu even more was that, although the Blood Evil Crystal wasn’t cheaper than in Celestial Sound City, still priced at ten Low-grade Spirit Stones each, the Earth Treasure Pavilion, true to its name, had as much as he wanted.

Of course.

It couldn’t be limitless.

Wen Jiu tentatively asked for a count, a whole thousand, and the people at the Earth Treasure Pavilion still nodded, saying they had it.

Even more amazing for Wen Jiu was that Celestial Killing Water was available too.

Again, as much as he wanted.

This way, he no longer needed to spend time concocting Celestial Killing Water, saving a lot of trouble.

”In the outside world, whether it is Blood Evil Crystal or Celestial Killing Water, they are scarce materials, but on Deadman Peak, they are as much as you want.” Wen Jiu couldn’t help but sigh inwardly, very satisfied with his decision to come to the Main Peak.

In the days that followed, Wen Jiu no longer wandered about, instead staying quietly at home to nourish corpses.

It’s worth mentioning that many people came to find Du Feng, the aura brought by his Top-Grade Single-Attribute Spirit Root completely bloomed a dazzling light on the Main Peak. When seeing Du Feng again, he had already resumed his initial cold and proud demeanor.

Walking alongside him were already the talents from other Side Peaks, and some Main Peak disciples of Qi Cultivation Third and Fourth Layers.

The people from Feixian Peak had seemingly become completely strangers, as if everything said at Mountain View Tower hadn’t existed at all.

To this.

Wen Jiu was not surprised.

Chen Daoqing, however, remained bitter at heart as if yet to fully react to this sudden change.

”Fellow Daoist Wen, you were summoned individually by Elder Ye, why isn’t anyone trying to recruit you?”

Chen Daoqing seemed to be speaking up for him, but Wen Jiu could see that Chen Daoqing was more likely expressing his own helplessness.

Because Wen Jiu saw Chen Daoqing warmly greeting Du Feng yesterday, only to be met with coldness and distance.

Yet Wen Jiu knew Chen Daoqing wasn’t a pretentious person, he guessed Chen Daoqing’s helplessness was more from the sudden shift in disparity.

Yesterday they were friends.

Today they were worlds apart.

Unable to bear it, it’s perfectly normal.

Wen Jiu comforted, ”Fellow Daoist Chen, in two days, you’ll have the Main Peak Examination, you’re not without opportunities. If you are favored by a Main Peak Elder at that time, you can leap out from your current circle.”

”Right! You’re absolutely right!” Chen Daoqing suddenly became invigorated like he’d taken a stimulant, ”Fellow Daoist Wen, you’re too right. I still have a chance, as long as I gain an Elder’s favor by then, the gap between me and Du Feng won’t be so unreachable. Then when seeing Du Feng, I won’t bother to greet him!”

”Then let me congratulate Fellow Daoist Chen in advance.”

Wen Jiu smiled helplessly.

Du Feng’s sudden change in circumstances and his indifference stimulated him quite a bit.

Ha.

It’s just being too concerned about these.

Unlike him, when Du Feng was recruited, he could even watch the spectacle with everyone else.

As for whether Du Feng acknowledges him or not, Wen Jiu couldn’t care less.

Even if Du Feng suddenly established his Foundation today, he wouldn’t mind.

However, being inspired by Wen Jiu’s words, Chen Daoqing had no intention of lingering and, in his mind, could think of nothing else but cultivation, striving to advance a bit more.

”Fellow Daoist Wen, I’ll go cultivate now.”

Having said that.

Chen Daoqing walked away swiftly.

Afraid of being delayed, hindering his realm breakthrough.

After sending him off, Wen Jiu closed the door and continued nourishing corpses, quietly waiting for the day of the Main Peak Examination.

Two days later.

The Main Peak Examination began.

Feng Xuan came to the place where everyone resided early, leading everyone onto the Flying Ship, departing Feixian Peak under the gaze of many Main Peak disciples.

As Wen Jiu and his companions set off, the Side Peak Masters also piloted their Flying Ships and joined Feng Xuan.

Heading east.

Everyone was so nervous they didn’t speak.

Standing beside Wen Jiu, Chen Daoqing still appeared full of energy, his eyes exceedingly sharp.

Du Feng stood at the prow of the Flying Ship alone, not standing with anyone. However, this time was different from last time; last time everyone came to him, this time Du Feng actively distanced himself from everyone from Feixian Peak.

A quarter of an hour later.

The Flying Ship slowly descended into a forest valley, and as it lowered, the array enveloping the valley slowly opened. But once the Flying Ship landed, the array quickly closed again.

Surveying the surroundings again, Wen Jiu was rather surprised at the importance of this examination—the valley was guarded by nearly thirty Sixth-Layer Qi Cultivation cultivators, and a Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer Main Peak Elder sat in watch.

”This setup is just too much.” Wen Jiu was somewhat puzzled.

Others were equally astonished.

The already nervous hearts were even more tense at this moment.

”Disembark and follow me, don’t wander off.” Feng Xuan said, then leisurely walked off the Flying Ship and headed straight to the valley.

Finally stopping at a massive light curtain in the valley.

Wen Jiu noticed that on either side of the light curtain stood two ten-foot-high Stone Puppets, whose faintly emanating aura was awe-inspiring.

Tier One High-Grade Stone Puppet!

Comparable to Late Stage of Qi Cultivation strength.

At this moment.

Wen Jiu realized something.

”Perhaps, those Sixth-Layer Qi Cultivation cultivators are not guarding us, but the sect heritage of the Cloud Sect.”

Chen Daoqing at this moment tugged on Wen Jiu’s sleeve, excitedly saying, ”Fellow Daoist Wen, these Stone Puppets are awesome.”

Wen Jiu paused.

This thought process...

”They are quite awesome.” But Wen Jiu had to admit, they indeed were quite awesome.

Soon.

All Side Peak disciples gathered outside the light curtain, a white-bearded, ethereal-looking Main Peak Elder quietly arrived, hovering above the light curtain, calmly overlooking everyone.
