Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

Chapter 300: Chapter 166: All Traps, Where’s the Opportunity?

Of course.

To be safe, Wen Jiu would not personally go to Celestial Extinction Mountain, only wait at the foot of the mountain, in case there was an error in the soul memory of the Demon Soul. If the Eastern Celestial City could lead it down, then he would help take it away.

If they couldn’t bring it down.

Then they’d talk again.

Not long after, Wen Jiu arrived ten miles outside Celestial Extinction Mountain, immediately sending a message to Eastern Celestial City to bring down the Golden Core Technique.

At the same time, Eastern Celestial City and others were teleported to the Celestial Extinction Mountain Mansion’s plaza. Those who passed the Three Halls were in the center of the plaza, those who passed the Five Halls were at the forefront, and those who didn’t pass the Three Halls were teleported to the edges of the plaza.

When Eastern Celestial City received the message, he intended to leave, but at this moment, the voice from their initial arrival reappeared, accompanied by Elder Yin Soul.

Although the elder was a Yin Soul, he had an air of an immortal, exuding the demeanor of the Immortal Family with every gesture.

Behind him was another person.

It was Ku Yue.

Unlike the others, Ku Yue could walk alongside the elder, clearly suggesting that passing Five Halls was not so simple. While others looked on with envy, speculating about Ku Yue’s fortuitous encounters, Eastern Celestial City’s gaze fell on Elder Yin Soul, with Wen Jiu’s reminders echoing in his mind.

”Fellow Daoists, I am one of the guardian souls of Celestial Extinction Mountain Mansion, you may call me Elder Di.” While everyone silently speculated, Elder Yin Soul suddenly spoke, waving his hand grandly, ”Those who couldn’t pass the Three Halls may leave the mountain, and may freely take the opportunities below, but the cultivation techniques of Celestial Extinction Mountain Mansion are destined to be beyond your reach.”

Upon these words.

The coiling dragon stone pillar in the plaza suddenly trembled, array patterns emerged, and within a breath, spiritual power separated all those at the edges, barring them from entering the plaza.

Without allowing time for reflection, Elder Yin Soul continued, ”Those who passed the Three Halls, now follow me into the mansion, where you will cultivate in the millennium Five Elements Spirit Liquid Pool, and in one year, you will naturally be able to leave.”

Mo Jianchou took the lead, followed closely by several disciples of Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks, but Ye Chen and others remained still, seeing Eastern Celestial City signaling with a glance.

Blood Eater Daoist had initially hesitated, but the millennium Spirit Liquid Pool was too tempting to resist, and missing it would mean lifelong regret. Upon contemplation, if it were a trap, the opponent wouldn’t let so many leave.

As Blood Eater Daoist followed suit, Eastern Celestial City cast a cold glance at the smug Ku Yue, turned away without excess words, and headed out of the plaza, with Ye Chen and others following swiftly.

Observing this, the cultivators from Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks and Blood Eater Daoist, along with Ku Yue, felt a mix of surprise and confusion, though Blood Eater Daoist wasn’t particularly surprised by Eastern Celestial City’s departure.

For they had observed earlier; Eastern Celestial City, though first to ascend, left the spiritual objects and magical artifacts untouched, clearly wary of everything atop the mountain.

His refusal to enter the Five Elements Spirit Liquid Pool or Yin Thunder Pool likely stemmed from suspicion of the opportunities themselves.

”The Five Elements Spirit Liquid Pool, having accumulated for a millennium, is as dense as the core regions of a Tier Four Spiritual Vein; the Yin Thunder Pool is an Innate Land capable of forging a Golden Core foundation, and you all decline?” Elder Yin Soul’s voice came from behind.

”Thank you, Elder Di, for your kind offer, but we must defend our sect outside, and thus lack the blessing to partake.” Eastern Celestial City didn’t turn back, nor did he halt his steps, confidently leaving the plaza.

Elder Yin Soul spoke no more and seemingly had no intention of stopping them.

Initially doubtful, Blood Eater Daoist and others were reassured, seeing Eastern Celestial City, a mere Foundation Establishment Cultivator, allowed departure without hindrance—reducing the chance of it being a trap or conspiracy.

Almost zero.

At that moment, Ku Yue suddenly spoke coldly, ”Eastern... in one year, you will be my kill!”

This time, he passed the Seven Halls.

Obtaining the core inheritance of Celestial Extinction Mountain Mansion.

Finally, his fortunes reversed!

”Proceed down the mountain quickly.” To this, Eastern Celestial City didn’t pause, heading downwards after exiting the plaza.

Ye Chen and others hurried to catch up.

”Fellow Daoist Han, we are descending the mountain now.” Midway down, Eastern Celestial City sent a message.

Ye Chen promptly asked, ”Senior Brother, has Elder Han discovered something unusual?”

”Not yet known, but Elder Han asked regarding Demon Cultivators and has already reached the mountain’s base,” Eastern Celestial City replied.

Ye Chen nodded.

His pace quickened, tension rising at the thought that if Demon Cultivators were involved, then both the Five Elements Spirit Liquid Pool and Yin Thunder Pool might be traps, leaving doubt as to why Elder Yin Soul would let them leave so easily.

Like Ye Chen, Bai Jianxin and others became highly alert, gripping their magical artifacts, ready for battle at any moment.

Yet the result was unexpected.

Though demons blocked the path, they safely descended, leaving Eastern Celestial City puzzled.

Soon.

Upon descending, they met Wen Jiu.

Wen Jiu swiftly slew the surrounding demons, his gaze and Divine Sense sweeping over Eastern Celestial City and others, ”This isn’t a place to linger, let’s leave first and discuss later.”

The Demon Pill Zhenren Demon Soul allowing Eastern Celestial City and others to descend was quite unexpected for Wen Jiu.

”Mm-hmm.”

Eastern Celestial City dared not hesitate and immediately followed.

Flying for five hundred miles, Wen Jiu finally halted in a dense mountain forest. He had already used his Divine Sense to meticulously check everyone on the way, finding nothing unusual.

Both inside and outside their bodies bore no traces of Demonic Qi, everything appeared normal, and even Wen Jiu almost doubted his judgment.
