Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

The environment allows him to take his time.

...

After settling the accounts, Wen Jiu began nurturing Corpse Blood.

There were still thirteen True Spirit Demon bodies in the Corpse Eye, but the Demon Blood within had been completely depleted.

Wen Jiu wanted to see how much the effect would be reduced by using it to nurture Corpse Blood.

A moment later.

The first True Spirit Demon body had been refined by one-tenth by the Corpse Eye, but only five pounds of Corpse Blood were cultivated.

Compared to using a Tier One Superior demon body to nurture blood before, it seemed almost halved, but Wen Jiu could accept it.

After all, it was free.

Even if one demon body could only produce fifty pounds of Corpse Blood, the thirteen demon bodies could yield six hundred and fifty pounds of Corpse Blood.

Sufficient for the Three Evil Corpses to break through from the Middle Realm to the Superior Realm, and possibly even enter another realm above.

Flying Corpse!

According to the Yinzhou Corpse Nurturing Technique, the Flying Corpse can soar through the skies, travel the earth, and wander the world without relying on corpses’ energy.

And a Human Race Cultivator needs to reach Foundation Establishment to have such abilities.

But what Wen Jiu truly looked forward to was a Flying Corpse having the new ability to learn Corpse Techniques on its own. Currently, whether it’s a Black Corpse or Three Evil Corpses, there are only two ways to acquire Corpse Techniques.

Either awaken during daily settlement.

Or through devouring.

But the chance of devouring is very small.

The daily settlement awakening probability is also not high.

So even the powerful Three Evil Corpses now knows only one Blood Corpse Escape, and none of the offensive Corpse Techniques. If the Three Evil Corpses could learn a few more Corpse Techniques, their strength would surely ascend another level.

Very soon.

Wen Jiu exhausted the Yin Technique and successfully refined three-tenths of the first True Spirit Demon’s body, obtaining fifteen pounds of Corpse Blood.

The next midnight at settlement, the Three Evil Corpses gained a total of 750 experience points, and the Blood Transformation Body received 300 experience points.

Still, one pound of Corpse Blood was fifty experience points, and twenty Blood Transformation Body experience.

[Three Evil Corpses (Middle Realm 2383/3000)]

[Skill: Blood Transformation Body, Fifth Level (300/4000)]

However, during daily settlement, the Three Evils Corpse Nurturing Technique’s nurturing effect on the Three Thousand Blood Inks began to drastically decrease.

Previously, spending about twenty Low-grade Spirit Stones, it could bring a hundred experience points to Three Thousand Blood Inks’ bodies.

But now it’s only fifty.

However, Mu Yuanlong’s has not changed.

Still, fifty.

But the experience the Three Evils Corpse Nurturing can garner for Mu Yuanlong daily will likely begin to decrease soon.

”Luckily, the Corpse Blood Nurturing hasn’t been discounted. Once the Three Evils Corpse Nurturing Technique’s effect for the Three Thousand Blood Inks decreases again, I’ll use Corpse Blood to nurture it.” After all, there are thirteen True Spirit Demon bodies available for a long time.

If they run out.

I can just go to the Ten Thousand Demon Abyss to fetch more!

Once the Three Evil Corpses reaches the Flying Corpse realm, with the Three Rivers Ghost Concealment and Blood Corpse Escape, it should be no problem to secretly dispose of a True Spirit Demon of Tier One Superior.

”How wonderful... I love Deadman Peak!”

Just thinking about the two to three thousand True Spirit Demons in the Ten Thousand Demon Abyss fills Wen Jiu with happiness.

He’s decided.

From now on, Deadman Peak will be his second home.

As long as his strength is sufficient, he’ll definitely protect Deadman Peak well.

Absolutely not do the deed of a ”Ryo Yoshis.”

After all, if you buy, the price for a Tier One Superior quality demon flesh like a True Spirit Demon Race isn’t low.

A pound might cost fifty to sixty Low-grade Spirit Stones.

A single True Spirit Demon might weigh at least two hundred pounds, equivalent to a value of over ten thousand Spirit Stones.

...

In the following days, Wen Jiu neither stepped out of his door nor crossed his threshold, focusing on grinding experience for the Hidden God Technique.

Not nurturing Corpse Blood.

Not using Three Evils Corpse Nurturing.

Intending to directly grind the Hidden God Technique to minor accomplishment.

In one day, twelve hours, forty-eight experience points; in less than half a month, the Hidden God Technique will achieve minor accomplishment.

Meanwhile, the issue of the Ten Thousand Demon Abyss has been fermenting increasingly, but fortunately, after several consecutive days, the Ten Thousand Demon Abyss is still peaceful, and most of the Spirit Suppression Department’s personnel have been withdrawn, so random speculations are decreasing.

To avoid creating a big impact, the Great Elder of Inspection Hall dared not directly bring those with Array Orders to the Inspection Hall for interrogation.

But they did send people to monitor them.

And placed them under house arrest.

However discreet, the news leaked and spread extremely fast at Deadman Peak, with even some claims that the Ten Thousand Demon Abyss issue was due to an insider’s mischief, seemingly intentionally spread by someone.

Rumors alone were hard to believe for most people, but once it was linked to the fact that Vice Hall Master Li Mu of the Inspection Hall found a Side Peak Master insider, many disciples at Deadman Peak naturally made connections.

For a time, there were countless speculations.

The Spirit Suppression Department became the first target, as only Spirit Suppression Department personnel could enter the Ten Thousand Demon Abyss.

Once seeds of doubt are sown, there’s no telling in which direction things will turn, but the Great Elder and his group seemed unmoved, letting the news spread and allowing Deadman Peak disciples to doubt the Spirit Suppression Department.

But just a day later, Ye Chen personally led a massive arrest, detaining thirteen people in one go.

All disciples of Deadman Peak.

Among them, eight were from the Twelve Departments.

Brought in front of the Truth Mirror for interrogation, none of the thirteen were exceptions; they were all spies from the Celestial Left Alliance.

The rumors were spread by them behind the scenes.

On the same day, the thirteen were beheaded at the foot of Deadman Peak in front of many onlookers.

Their direct relatives from the Side Peak were also no exception, all exterminated, regardless of guilt, the results were the same.

When Wen Jiu learned this, he felt no ripples in his heart.

Because their relatives had been enjoying the blessings of Deadman Peak, simply saying ”this has nothing to do with me” wasn’t an excuse, and only with such measures could the temple-like threats be silenced. Otherwise, just executing the insiders wouldn’t address the root of the problem.

As a sect, only by being extremely ruthless towards traitors can they deter those insiders who are eating from the sect yet eying other pots.

As expected.

After the execution of the thirteen, Deadman Peak became much more peaceful.

That night, Li Mu came to visit to report the current situation, reminding, ”Junior Brother, tomorrow morning the Great Elder and others will bring you over, but don’t worry, it’s just a simple inquiry.”

Wen Jiu nodded.

On the surface, he seemed unconcerned, but in his heart, ripples inevitably arose.

After all, he had many secrets.

”Senior Brother, who will be questioning me tomorrow?” Wen Jiu hurriedly asked, as if it wasn’t the Great Elder and elders who disliked the Heterodox Dao, there was no way he could go, even if it meant self-harm.

Li Mu seemed to notice Wen Jiu’s concern, ”Actually, the Great Elder hadn’t thought of calling you, but some elders have issues.... but don’t worry, Master, the Great Elder, Elder Xiang and I will all be there, they can’t do anything to you, nor ask questions they shouldn’t.”

”Thank you, Senior Brother.”

Wen Jiu was grateful.

”It’s nothing, everyone has some secrets of their own, as long as they don’t harm fellow disciples, secrets can be kept in the heart.” Li Mu said, as if remembering something, then a look of disdain appeared on his face, ”Those few old stubborn ones really know how to disgust people, always fighting internally, insisting there’s something wrong with you... if not for the Great Elder, Master would have swung his Thousand-Pound Tyrant Axe.”

”It’s fine, Senior Brother, a clear conscience is not afraid of slander.”

Wen Jiu smiled.

A sense of security inevitably arose within him.

Having such a master unafraid to throw a punch.

How wonderful!

The following day, Wen Jiu was brought to the Inspection Hall.

However, coming to the Inspection Hall felt like coming home for Wen Jiu.

”Greetings, Inspector.”

”Greetings, Inspector.”

All along the way.

People saluted him.

When he arrived at the interrogation room in the Inspection Hall, Wen Jiu found the Great Elder of Eastern Celestial City, Ye Chen, and Elder Wu Xiu all present, while in the middle of the interrogation room was a mirror—the Truth Mirror of the All-Knowing Tower.

Behind the Truth Mirror stood three or four Main Peak Elders, with sharp eyes locked onto Wen Jiu.

As if looking at a criminal.

Seeing this, Wen Jiu glanced back at the Great Elder of Eastern Celestial City, Elder Xiang Wenlong, and his master Ye Chen.

”I advise you to retract those looks.” Ye Chen spoke angrily, his eyes flashing with murderous intent.

The cold gaze of Eastern Celestial City lowered as well.

The few then restrained themselves considerably.

Following that, they asked Wen Jiu many questions in front of the Truth Mirror, all regarding the Ten Thousand Demon Abyss incident.

Wen Jiu answered smoothly.

The Truth Mirror showed no reaction.

Since what was asked had nothing to do with him.

After all the questions were asked, the elders exchanged looks, then forced a smile.

Ye Chen said coldly, ”Fellow Daoists, you may doubt my character, but you cannot doubt my judgment!”

With these words.

Ye Chen turned to the Great Elder of Eastern Celestial City, ”Senior Brother, Junior Brother still has one unused Companion Sparring Order, and intends to use it today.”

Companion Sparring Order.

According to sect rules, an elder can obtain one per year.

The user may forcibly select a fellow disciple for sparring.

”Old thing, let’s have it out!”

Ye Chen pointed at one of the Main Peak Elders who stood at the front among them and had asked the most questions earlier.
