Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

With his Divine Sense, he could easily perceive it, yet he had absolutely no impression of this ghostly energy.

The entire Cultivation Realm of Deadman Peak.

Even looking across the whole Far West.

There have been Yin Souls of Ghost King Grade, but their aura was not like the ghostly energy that protects Shan Yue Ru’s life.

”It seems like there are many dark corners on Deadman Peak that I, an old man, am unaware of.” murmured Eastern Celestial City in his heart.

First, there was the mysterious ghost cultivator of Feixian Peak, secretly helping Deadman Peak, and now there’s another cultivator nurturing Ghost King Grade ghosts.

It’s truly bewildering.

...

After half an hour.

After Shan Yue Ru had used the Ghost-Subduing Pill to disperse the Nether Moon Ghost Qi within her, Eastern Celestial City headed straight to Ye Chen’s cave abode.

”Junior Brother.”

Eastern Celestial City called out.

The voice passed through the great array and entered Ye Chen’s cave abode, startling Purple Flame Ming who was snoring loudly into a leap three feet high.

He was just about to growl fiercely, but after seeing it was Eastern Celestial City, he quickly and obsequiously shook his head and moved close.

”Congratulations, Senior Brother, two birds with one stone!” Ye Chen greeted with a smile, ”The expedition to the Celestial Extinction Ruins a year from now, tying Little Inference Mountain with us, is definitely all gain and no harm for us.”

”You saw through it.” Eastern Celestial City’s face was calm, not surprised, ”Also thanks to the opportunity given by my disciple this time, otherwise I really would have no excuse to fight outside the main peak of Little Inference Mountain to attract Yan Shanhai to cooperate with us.”

”In the past, our Three Sects and Six Peaks were incompatible with fire and water, giving Celestial Left Alliance a chance, now with you, Senior Brother, starting with this move, it’s time for Celestial Left Alliance to be anxious.” Ye Chen laughed heartily.

However, Eastern Celestial City did not laugh. Although temporarily tied with Little Inference Mountain, the crisis remains.

What he solved was only some trouble within the Celestial Extinction Ruins, not the troubles faced now.

Thus, Celestial Left Alliance will certainly return in a few days, and then, the disciples encountering accidents will only increase.

This disciple is just the beginning!

”Ultimately, it still depends on contacting Master. If Master shows up, all plans of the Celestial Left Alliance will naturally collapse.” Eastern Celestial City sighed, then asked, ”Was the Yinzhou Heterodox Record transmitted?”

”It was transmitted.”

”Your disciple is quite a surprise. If he succeeds in practice, even the Heterodox Lineage of Deadman Peak will have successors.”

”He should be able to.” Ye Chen replied.

But he lacked confidence.

Because the difficulty of practicing the Yinzhou Heterodox Record is truly high.

”As long as Master is fine, the kid still has plenty of time, no need to hurry.” Eastern Celestial City then asked, ”Have the Inspection Hall found anything these days regarding that mysterious heterodox cultivator and the ghost cultivator who saved my disciple’s life?”

”Yanyue is still investigating, but currently there’s no clue. However, we can be certain the other party is not from Celestial Left Alliance. As for this ghost cultivator, truthfully speaking, a cultivator who can nurture Ghost King Grade Yin Souls, if he hides from us, even if we overturn Deadman Peak, it’s impossible to find him.”

”Indeed.”

Eastern Celestial City nodded.

The Yin Soul Ghosts of Ghost King Grade have one foot already stepping into Tier Two, if in Ninth Realm, which compares to Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer cultivators, I’m afraid he isn’t a match, thus it would be too easy for him to hide.

”But since he is willing to help my disciple, he must be someone close to him, possibly even someone my disciple is familiar with.” Eastern Celestial City added, ”Just let the Inspection Hall follow this line to investigate, but do not overdo it.”

”Junior Brother understands.”

Ye Chen nodded.

After shutting down the array, Ye Chen finally asked the question he didn’t dare to ask before, ”Senior Brother, these matters can be discussed later, but I want to know where exactly Master went, and why suddenly his life and death are in doubt?”

”I don’t know the specifics either. Master only told me that he and a Foundation Establishment Elder from the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks obtained something in the ruins of an ancient sect located in Far North, which possibly involves a Golden Core opportunity.”

Eastern Celestial City replied with a heavy expression, he actually suspected it was that Foundation Establishment Elder from Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks who played dirty.

After all, it involves a Golden Core opportunity.

But Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks is a top sect.

Even if he suspects, he doesn’t dare say so.

If it truly was that Foundation Establishment Elder at Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks playing dirty, Master might not dare return to Deadman Peak even if alive.

Now, he can only hope and pray it isn’t so.

Perhaps just encountering a Tribulation Cultivator.

Or some other trouble.

Isn’t the Demon Race in Far North causing a big uproar now?

Maybe it’s because of the Demon Race.

”Golden Core opportunity…” Ye Chen’s face also turned ugly, for a moment completely at a loss for words.

Just these four words.

He felt Master probably isn’t coming back.

...

Several days later.

Wen Jiu returned from the Ten Thousand Demon Abyss.

Found someone outside his room again.

But it wasn’t Shan Yue Ru.

It was Chen Daoqing.

”Congratulations, Big Brother, on breaking through to Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer!” Chen Daoqing offered his congratulations while handing over a gift upon meeting.

Wen Jiu scanned with his Divine Sense.

Inside were Yin Evil Spiritual Medicine Seeds worth two or three hundred Low-grade Spirit Stones.

To Wen Jiu, it was not much.

But for Chen Daoqing who is only at Qi Cultivation Third Layer, these two or three hundred Low-grade Spirit Stones probably have emptied himself.

”Got rich?” Wen Jiu asked instinctively, noticing the flattering expression on Chen Daoqing’s face.

For this, Wen Jiu wasn’t surprised.

Because his combat display when killing Qi Mountain had already reached Qi Cultivation Fifth Layer, which in the Demon-slaying Department could rival some Demon Slayer Envoys.

A genuine pillar within the sect.

Chen Daoqing scratched his head with a smile, ”Made a bit of money, this time in the mission sharing three Tier One Lower Grade and half Tier One Middle Grade demon corpses, sold for over five hundred Low-grade Spirit Stones.”

Wen Jiu laughed, ”Not bad, not bad.”

Being able to share Tier One Middle Grade demon corpses, clearly indicates Chen Daoqing participated in hunting Tier One Middle Grade demons.

Just entering Qi Cultivation Third Layer and being able to participate.

Shows that Chen Daoqing’s strength is still quite good.

Has strength.

And some luck.

The future definitely won’t be bad.

”Big Brother, no need to compliment me, compared to your achievements, my small accomplishments are like fireflies.” Chen Daoqing said flatteringly, ”Everyone is saying, your realm breakthrough definitely damaged your foundation, but I believe, you are surely thick and yet revealed thin, stepping into Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer is only natural!”

”Here late in the night just to say this?” Wen Jiu shook his head helplessly, where did this kid learn such an attitude.

Learned from a waiter at an inn in the market?

Chen Daoqing quickly explained, ”Big Brother, no, I know you’re low-key, breaking into the middle stage of Qi Cultivation surely won’t throw a big banquet, so I’m here to give you a congratulatory gift. Knowing you’ve been planting Yin Evil Spiritual Medicine, just bought some for you.”

”Received it.”

Wen Jiu did not refuse.

Just assuming Chen Daoqing returned a life-saving grace from Three-leaf Square.

Chen Daoqing chuckled, then asked, ”Big Brother, I actually came today to ask you one thing.”

”Speak.”

”Master said, in a few days, he plans for me to marry Xiaoqing, who is Master’s beloved daughter, yet after experiencing this life and death crisis, seeing those evil cultivators stronger than my grandfather, I’m a bit confused.”

”Confused about what?”

”I don’t know whether I should marry or not, I want to continue executing missions to train myself, reaching the middle stage of Qi Cultivation early... If I marry Xiaoqing, Master will definitely for Xiaoqing’s sake prevent me from executing those dangerous tasks... But I want to become stronger, I even want to surpass Du Feng!”

”You guy...” Wen Jiu couldn’t help but laugh.

This guy actually has an obsession with Du Feng.

Did Du Feng’s attitude change hurt him so deeply back then?

However, he understood Chen Daoqing’s confusion, if Chen Daoqing marries, he intends to take risks with his life, not to mention his Master doesn’t agree, even Xiaoqing doesn’t agree.

Moreover, having a wife certainly leads to children, then executing tasks outside the main peak will be bound and unable.

This is also one of the reasons why he doesn’t want to find a Dao companion.

Have relatives.

It leads to bonds.

He already has one sister, Wen Ya, that’s enough.

Any more would be trouble.

”Big Brother, in all of Deadman Peak, I only trust you.” Chen Daoqing said seriously.

Wen Jiu hesitated for a few moments, then ultimately shook his head, ”Follow your heart, ask yourself what you truly desire, if you’re worried that not marrying Xiaoqing would cause Master to be displeased, someday we can go to an inn in the town below the mountain to have a drink together.”
