Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

”I’ll steal half, Senior Brother will steal half... that’s hilarious.” Wen Jiu couldn’t help but laugh, then carefully sensed the position of the Corpse Qi Mark.

Far.

Very far.

On this day, Shan Yue Ru visited again, her spirit, energy, and essence restored to the state of when they first met.

It was apparent that Shan Yue Ru had completely recovered.

But Wen Jiu didn’t expect that after recovering, Shan Yue Ru would come looking for him in the middle of the night, even bringing along some gifts.

”Junior Brother Wen, you practice so hard every day, aren’t you even a bit weary? Why not go out for some adventure with me, I’ll teach you the mighty Three Hundred Smashes.” When Wen Jiu opened the array, Shan Yue Ru entered smoothly.

Wen Jiu helplessly said, ”Senior Sister, if you want me dead, just say so. Right now, the Celestial Left Alliance is offering a reward of one Left Essence Pill for me, dead or alive.”

”Is there such a thing?”

Shan Yue Ru asked in surprise.

”Senior Sister, you haven’t been aware, as you’ve been healing these days.” Wen Jiu replied, but his mind was filled with the mighty Three Hundred Smashes.

How did a fairy with such stunning looks and figure, skin as white as jade, choose such a martial art technique?

Shan Yue Ru suddenly realized, ”I remembered, an old physician once told me about your exploits in the Qi Family... Now I understand why you’re unwilling to go to Langhuan Blessed Land, whatever Langhuan Blessed Land can offer in half a year, it seems you fear nothing.”

Shan Yue Ru sighed with emotion.

She finally understood why her master agreed to Wen Jiu’s request not to go to the Langhuan Blessed Land.

”Does Senior Sister have business?” Wen Jiu, instead, focused on the brocade box she was holding.

Shan Yue Ru hurriedly lifted it up, ”This is a thank-you gift for you, Junior Brother—a bottle of hundred-year-old Tier One Middle Grade Life-Extending Spirit Liquid, which can prolong life by five years. Though it’s useless for those nearing old age and thus only worth seven hundred Spirit Stones.

Come, have a taste!”

Saying so, Shan Yue Ru took out the jade bottle and was about to open it.

Wen Jiu swept with his Divine Sense, confirmed it was indeed a bottle of middle-grade Spirit Liquid, but still hesitated to accept.

Whenever something unusual happens, there’s usually a trick.

”Senior Sister, I’m not quite used to this.” Wen Jiu couldn’t help but retreat a small step.

Shan Yue Ru wasn’t surprised, ”Don’t be afraid, Senior Sister won’t harm you. I’m here today to thank you for saving my life. Without your rescue that night, I probably couldn’t have lasted until my master returned with the Ghost-Subduing Pill.

In fact, I didn’t sleep well that night...”

Upon hearing those words.

Wen Jiu was taken aback.

Turns out she was here to test him.

How unfortunate.

This trick won’t work on him.

He had probed Shan Yue Ru with the Three Evil Flying Corpses’ perception, ensuring no such minor accidents occurred.

However, Shan Yue Ru suspecting it was him was unexpected to Wen Jiu; is a woman’s intuition really that accurate?

”No wonder nothing happened that night... So it was someone helping behind the scenes, I wonder who it was, I’d love to thank them face to face.” Wen Jiu agreed without flinching, sticking to the act of denial.

But Shan Yue Ru remained unmoved, her expression serious, as if everything she said was true, ”Rest assured, Junior Brother, after thanking you, I’ll personally cast a Silencing Spell, ensuring nothing about you gets exposed.”

Seeing that sincere expression, Wen Jiu laughed silently in his heart.

Indeed, beautiful women are naturally deceptive.

If not for his absolute confidence in his perception of the Three Evil Flying Corpses, and knowledge of the taboo against corpses and ghosts, Wen Jiu might have believed her.

”Senior Sister, you actually think it’s me... Alright, I’ll admit it; it was me.” Wen Jiu said, reaching out to take the Life-Extending Spirit Liquid.

What he didn’t expect was Shan Yue Ru suddenly withdrawing her hand, her expression changing instantly, ”Seems it’s not you, kid.”

”Senior Sister, it really was me.”

Wen Jiu continued to reach out, but Shan Yue Ru directly put it back into her storage bag.

This left Wen Jiu momentarily speechless.

When I deny, you’re convinced it’s me.

When I admit it.

You say it’s not me.

Being an honest person is tough!

Shan Yue Ru chuckled and started to leave, ”Alright, Junior Brother, you have a good rest. I still need to test other people. I refuse to believe I can’t find the one who saved me in secret!”

She and Wen Jiu were alike.

Not many familiar people.

Not many willing to save her either.

Originally, she didn’t dare to think it was Wen Jiu, but after probing around, no one admitted it was he.

Helplessly, she could only come to Wen Jiu since she indeed had spent a comfortable night there once.

And starting from that night, her body underwent some subtle changes; however, she didn’t consider it then, attributing it to Elder Wu Xiu’s Secret Technique’s good effect. But now it seems it might have been due to that very night.

Soon, Shan Yue Ru left.

After closing the grand formation, Wen Jiu didn’t care much about tonight’s small episode; instead, he prepared to enhance his Realm Breakthrough.

Having stabilized Corpse Nourishing for a month, now the experience for the Three Evil Flying Corpses had reached 3330 points.

[Three Evil Flying Corpses (Lower Realm 3330/5000)]

Just 1670 points short of a Realm Breakthrough, yet with True Spirit Demon Corpse Qi gaining 60 points daily, the balance had now reached 3320 points.

[True Spirit Demon Corpse Qi: 3320]

[True Spirit Demon Death Qi: 2640]

[True Spirit Essence Blood: 917]

”Been so focused on secluded cultivation, I forgot to check the surplus of True Spirit Demon Corpse Qi.”

Wen Jiu didn’t hesitate and immediately started adding points.

However, after the Three Evil Corpses transformed into Three Evil Flying Corpses, a single point of True Spirit Demon Corpse Qi could not increase two points of experience.

Only one point.

-1670

[True Spirit Demon Corpse Qi: 1650]

The Three Evil Flying Corpses smoothly stepped into the Middle Realm.

At this point.

Even if the True Spirit Blood Body of the Three Evil Flying Corpses was only at the fifth level.

Wen Jiu now had the qualification to try hunting the True Spirit Demon Race.

[Three Evil Flying Corpses (Middle Realm 0/6000)]

...

Early next morning.

Wen Jiu couldn’t wait to reach the Ten Thousand Demon Abyss.

First, he used the Yin Spirit to probe the abyss, seeking areas with fewer True Spirit Demon Race.

However, even though the Three Evil Flying Corpses had broken through to the Middle Realm, Wen Jiu still wanted to find a lone, sleeping True Spirit Demon Race.

After all, if he couldn’t kill it in one strike, it would wake the others, and they would surely swarm.

However.

He couldn’t find any lone True Spirit Demon Race.

”Forget it.”

”Let’s give it a try first.”

Wen Jiu didn’t hesitate, used the Three Rivers Ghost Concealment, and a Blood Corpse Escape to rush into the abyss, targeting a True Spirit Demon Race sleeping in the corner. At the moment of landing, the claws of the Three Evil Flying Corpses pierced straight into its eyeless head.

However.

At that very instant, the True Spirit Demon Race suddenly awoke, and the surrounding True Spirit Demon Race awoke as well.

”Too fast!”

Wen Jiu was taken aback.

Luckily, the claws of the Three Evil Flying Corpses had already penetrated the head of that True Spirit Demon Race, instantly silencing it. In mere moments, the other True Spirit Demon Race swarmed over like a tide.

Wen Jiu quickly used Corpse Eye to collect it, once again used Blood Corpse Escape to leave the abyss, and returned to the Cultivation Land.

Not daring to linger, Wen Jiu quickly got up and ran outside, only relaxing after he dashed out of the Ten Thousand Demon Abyss.

”Junior Brother Wen?”

Moqiu was surprised by Wen Jiu’s sudden emergence, as previously Wen Jiu had never come out during the day.

Wen Jiu quickly explained, ”It’s nothing, just accidentally disturbed them while using Yin Spirit to spy on the True Spirit Demon Race.”

Moqiu was enlightened and indifferent, but in the next moment, he saw a large number of True Spirit Demon Race suddenly surge out of the abyss, hundreds or thousands, rushing like waves toward them.

”This...”

Wen Jiu was secretly shocked.

He was sure that the Yin Spirit Technique and Three Rivers Ghost Concealment wouldn’t leave any trace, yet after the True Spirit Demon Race surged out of the abyss, why did they head directly toward them?

”Alert!”

”Prepare!”

Moqiu was shocked and quickly shouted.

Other disciples and Spirit Suppressing Envoys of the Spirit Suppression Department hurried over, and upon seeing the wave-like True Spirit Demon Race continuously crashing against the array barrier where they were, their faces changed dramatically, and they quickly pulled out Magical Artifacts, ready to defend.

Even though they had been guarding the Ten Thousand Demon Abyss for so long, the furious roars of the True Spirit Demon Race, crashing madly against the array barrier without regard for their own bodies, left them deeply unnerved.

Have they gone mad?

What’s happening?

Moqiu instinctively glanced at Wen Jiu, his heart pounding with fear, ”Junior Brother Wen, fortunately, you used the Yin Spirit to probe into the abyss.”

After speaking.

Moqiu breathed a sigh of relief.

Because, regardless of how they crashed, the array barrier remained intact.

But it must be said, the True Spirit Demon Race now had quite the temper.

Junior Brother Wen merely disturbed their sleep, and they all charged out, recklessly crashing against the array barrier.
