Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

Chapter 433: Chapter 224: Blood Demon Sect Branch, Fencing Stolen Goods in the Celestial Demon Sea

Ten Thousand Beasts City.

This vast Immortal City stands on an island, surrounded by sea ships and sea beasts, stretching as far as the eye can see. Beneath, one’s Divine Sense can only find a profusion of underwater demon beasts, their numbers staggering.

But they are merely comparable to Early Stage or Middle Stage of Qi Cultivation demon beasts, with the occasional Tier Two Demon Beast sighting.

Yet, their sheer numbers are overwhelming.

A mere group of one million, ten million underwater fish monsters at the Early Stage of Qi Cultivation clustered on the sea floor, advancing with terrifying speed. Even a Middle Stage or Late Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator caught within would meet their demise.

”Indeed, no matter which world, the sea is the most dangerous place,” Wen Jiu couldn’t help but marvel as he controlled East Spring Undying Bone toward the Immortal City while browsing the soul memories of the Yin Yang Cultivator, preparing to head straight to the city’s largest trading house.

Unlike the Divine Fall Mountain Range, the trading houses on the Celestial Demon Sea are mostly family-owned, and these families are not mere vassals. Their high-ranking members are basically cultivators of the Three Life Gates. As for Loose Cultivators, they must accept their fate and live off hunting underwater sea beasts. As for the hundred arts of cultivation, many are unpopular here.

For example, Yin Talisman Masters and Yin Alchemy Masters. Given the surrounding islands, resources are not abundant and thus extremely rare.

Upon witnessing this, Wen Jiu suddenly understood why the Three Life Gates wanted to invade the Divine Fall Mountain Range.

A power weaker than oneself but possessing the bountiful Divine Fall Mountain Range would make anyone dissatisfied.

After paying ten low-grade Yin Spirit Stones to enter the city, Wen Jiu controlled East Spring Undying Bone to maintain an Early Stage of Foundation Establishment cultivation level, not too high nor too low, to avoid unnecessary trouble and not attract too much attention.

Scanning the surroundings with Divine Sense, the cultivators in the city were generally weaker than those in Wind and Cloud Immortal City, but their numbers were several times greater. But considering the surrounding islands and the vast ocean, Wen Jiu quickly came to terms with it.

Once inside, Wen Jiu headed straight to the trading house with spiritual medicine, dividing six hundred Tier Two Lower Grade spiritual medicines into three batches.

For the first sale, Wen Jiu aimed to gather enough Evil Yin Spiritual Medicines to cultivate a Tier Two Top Grade Ghost-faced Butcher.

No matter the risk.

Future sales could proceed more slowly.

Upon arriving at the first Treasure Gathering Trading House, a dozen Divine Senses scrutinized him as he entered, all containing malicious intent. However, when East Spring Undying Bone released its Foundation Establishment aura, most retreated.

Only two or three Foundation Establishment Divine Senses lingered, but they withdrew once East Spring Undying Bone entered the trading house.

Seeing a Foundation Establishment Cultivator at the door, the cold and aloof Foundation Establishment elder steward, who had been observing guests from the second floor with hands behind his back, hurriedly descended, ”Fellow Daoist, visiting for the first time? What can we offer? Our Treasure Gathering Trading House has everything from fencing, second-hand magical artifacts, furnaces, to Corpse Nourishing Essence Blood.”

”Fetch someone more competent to negotiate with me. You’re at the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment, not sufficient,” Wen Jiu controlled East Spring Undying Bone to coldly send a message.

In the Celestial Demon Sea, if you’re polite, it means you’re likely an easy mark. Conversely, the more brusque your manner, the more people will tread carefully. Of course, those who merely pretend usually court disaster.

At that moment, a cool, displeased voice echoed from the upstairs corridor, causing the Loose Cultivators in the trading house to tense, ”Fellow Daoist truly boasts a big mouth. Does this humble self qualify for your needs?”

Wen Jiu controlled East Spring Undying Bone’s Divine Sense to scan.

Late Stage of Foundation Establishment.

As Wen Jiu’s Divine Sense swept over, many directed their puzzled gaze at East Spring Undying Bone.

What could this person have said to provoke the personal appearance of Moon Princess, one of the three Pavilion Masters of Treasure Pavilion?

The Moon Princess was herself a Late Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator and a top presence in Ten Thousand Beasts City. Moreover, her father was a Foundation Establishment Perfection Elder in the Three Life Gates, so even the City Lord would show her deference in the city.

Didn’t this person do any homework before coming?

To have angered the Moon Princess right away.

Wen Jiu ignored these stares, controlling East Spring Undying Bone to telepathically communicate with the Late Stage Female Cultivator, ”I have a batch of Tier Two Lower Grade spiritual medicines. Can you handle it?”

He revealed a Late Stage of Foundation Establishment aura while communicating. The initially displeased Moon Princess’s face softened with a hint of a smile. She was quickly searching through memories of Late Stage Foundation Establishment Corpse Cultivators but found nothing.

In Ten Thousand Beasts City, the unwritten rule was clear: the more mysterious someone was, the more one needed to tread cautiously.

”Fellow Daoist, please proceed upstairs to a private room.”

The Moon Princess concealed her cold gaze and forced a welcoming smile.

Wen Jiu controlled East Spring Undying Bone to swiftly ascend to a private room on the third floor, illuminated by flickering pink candlelight. Once inside, Moon Princess gestured for the maids to leave and slowly approached the seated East Spring Undying Bone.

Her red lips exhaled a strange scented breath as she leaned in to ask Wen Jiu his honorific title, revealing a significant portion of her snowy white frontage. Witnessing this, Wen Jiu scoffed.

Do these female Evil Cultivators still enjoy playing these tricks, even at the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment?

How unfortunate.

I’m not interested.

”Two hundred Tier Two Lower Grade spiritual medicines, can you take them?” Wen Jiu controlled East Spring Undying Bone to communicate directly.

Moon Princess paused in her leaning gesture, pondering, ”Fellow Daoist, might I see two samples?”

Tier Two spiritual medicines are rare commodities in the Celestial Demon Sea, far exceeding demand. The Treasure Gathering Trading House’s stock was only about fifty, yet this person claimed to have two hundred. How could she not be skeptical?

Wen Jiu controlled East Spring Undying Bone to produce two celestial heart waters without fear of theft.

”Celestial Heart Water, unique to the Divine Fall Mountain Range!” Moon Princess gazed at East Spring Undying Bone with newfound apprehension.

At this moment, a Late Stage Foundation Establishment Corpse Cultivator from the Divine Fall Mountain Range appearing in Ten Thousand Beasts City was no good news.

Wen Jiu controlled East Spring Undying Bone to send a cold message, ”Do you want it or not?”

”Celestial Heart Water is rare in the Celestial Demon Sea. Of course, I want it, but can you truly provide two hundred portions?”

”I can.”

”If true, and of this quality, this humble self offers twenty-five thousand per portion.”

”Can we exchange for Evil Yin Spiritual Medicines directly?”

”Yes, but are you sure?”

”I am.”

Wen Jiu nodded without hesitation.

”Please wait in this room,” Moon Princess adjusted her attire and swiftly exited the private room.

Wen Jiu kept East Spring Undying Bone’s Divine Sense fixed on her, observing her communicate telepathically with several people before heading to the warehouse. Upon returning, another Late Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator appeared outside the Treasure Pavilion.

But he didn’t follow Moon Princess into the private room, instead remaining hidden in the shadows of the Treasure Pavilion.

Whether they intended to kill and loot remained uncertain.

”Fellow Daoist, our Treasure Pavilion can supply two hundred portions of Tier Two Evil Yin Spiritual Medicines, but could you allow this humble self to verify one first?” Moon Princess proceeded cautiously, given the two hundred Tier Two Lower Grade spiritual medicines involved, she couldn’t be too careless.

Wen Jiu controlled East Spring Undying Bone to produce fifty portions, ”If worried, we can trade fifty by fifty.”

”Agreed!”

Moon Princess readily agreed.

After four repeated transactions, all two hundred Tier Two Lower Grade Evil Yin Spiritual Medicines were accounted for, and Moon Princess couldn’t help but be delighted. Although it appeared to be a barter, the value of spiritual medicines was higher in the Celestial Demon Sea, thus offering more profit.

”Fellow Daoist, do you have more? If so, our Treasure Pavilion can source more Evil Yin Spiritual Medicines from elsewhere.” Moon Princess asked as East Spring Undying Bone seemed ready to leave.

Wen Jiu shook his head.

”No more.”

But he added while exiting the private room, ”This cooperation was smooth. I’ll return if I have more in the future.”

Moon Princess gave a slight bow as she saw East Spring Undying Bone out of the private room. Wen Jiu wasted no time exiting the Treasure Pavilion, with the Late Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator from the shadows continuing to follow him disguised as a Qi Refining Cultivator.

No matter if they planned to rob or not, Wen Jiu didn’t care. He casually found an alley to perform Three Rivers Ghost Concealment, then used Blood Corpse Escape to leave, reemerging as a Ghost Cultivator and heading to another trading house.

When the Late Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator realized they lost track, their Divine Sense swept around, their face turning grim, ”A corpse cultivator of such power appearing in Ten Thousand Beasts City, I wonder if it’s a good thing.”

[Two updates completed.

Fellow Daoists.

See you tomorrow!

By the way, if you have monthly tickets, please give them to Feique.

Giving it to a big god is like icing on the cake, but giving it to Feique is like sending charcoal in the snow, surely becoming Feique’s daily motivation for eight thousand words.]
