Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

Chapter 473: Chapter 243: Boundless Lifelessness, Unmelting Golden Core [First Update!]

In an instant, the terrifying might of the condensing pill enveloped a thousand-zhang area, and then began to spread rapidly.

Ten breaths of time.

A ten-thousand-zhang area, the core region of the entire Tier Three Yin Spirit Vein, was enveloped by the might of the condensing pill formed by the East Spring Undying Bone.

But this was not the end.

The might of the condensing pill continued to spread, and as it spread, the Yin spirit energy, death energy, and blood energy from the Nightmare Blood Yin Vein began to madly surge toward the East Spring Undying Bone’s Core Formation land. The Three Qi, originally captured by He You’s condensing pill might, also began to change direction, forcibly pulled over by the might of the East Spring Undying Bone’s condensing pill.

Originally, He You’s condensing pill might, which had spread to a two-thousand-zhang area, abruptly stopped, unable to capture even a trace of the Three Qi, and his condensing pill might was completely suppressed by the condensing pill might of the East Spring Undying Bone.

At this moment, He You’s condensing pill might was like a dwarf standing in front of a giant, with the giant lifting a foot to stomp down, and the dwarf could only raise its hands to desperately support it. If it could not sustain, it might be crushed underfoot by the giant.

This sudden scene shocked the Lu Family and the He Family Foundation Establishment cultivators inside and outside the Stone Hall, who hurriedly raised their hands to look at the condensing pill might above them, while quickly using their Foundation Establishment power to resist the terrifying pressure brought by this condensing pill might.

There was an Early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator who actually knelt on one knee with a thud under this pressure and could no longer stand up.

He Wuxiong noticed this scene and sat up in shock, ”Impossible, the initial condensing pill might already covers a ten-thousand-zhang area and even swallows all the Yin spirit energy, blood energy, and death energy from the Nightmare Blood Yin Vein!”

Lu Shouren’s eyes were filled with golden light, and his heart was in turmoil. He had once seen a peerless genius form an Upper-Rank Golden Core in a Floating Domain, with a condensing pill might covering a five-thousand-zhang area, which was terrifying.

But today, Li Bai’s condensing pill might actually covered a ten-thousand-zhang area right from the start and was still expanding. He You’s condensing pill might was forcibly interrupted by him and was even being pressed to the brink of collapse.

What kind of pill did Li Bai form?

Could it be the legendary Top-Grade Golden Core?

But how could that be possible?

Li Bai is just a lone cultivator.

And merely an ordinary loose cultivator from the Divine Fall Mountain Range.

He doesn’t even have a Yin Sha Evil Spirit... No, Li Bai must have a Yin Sha Evil Spirit, otherwise, it’s impossible to have such a condensing pill might, and the grade of that Yin Sha Evil Spirit is likely not low.

At this moment, Lu Shouren really didn’t care whether Li Bai had hidden something from them or deceived them.

Instead, he thought of the Life-long Spirit Contract.

Li Bai.

He is one of the Lu Family!

”Fellow Daoist He, stay calm, it’s just the condensing pill might as of now, it’s uncertain if it’ll succeed or not.” Lu Shouren could hardly conceal the joy in his heart, mimicking He Wuxiong’s earlier words, raising his teacup, finding the Spirit Tea particularly refreshing.

He Wuxiong’s face darkened, unable to sit still, and he had no intention of paying attention to Lu Shouren, wanting to step outside immediately.

Buzz---

A sword hum resonated in the hall.

Lu Shouren, who had already stood with hands behind his back at some unknown time, his eyes full of fierce Sword Intent, though no sword in hand, seemed surrounded by countless swords, ”The Core Formation is not finished, Fellow Daoist should best stay here for now... otherwise, if any misunderstanding occurs, my Lu Family will not bear the consequences.”

”You!”

He Wuxiong clenched his fist in rage.

But his steps came to an abrupt halt, not daring to move further.

In his experience, Lu Family’s Li Bai’s condensing pill might probably exceeds the Upper-Rank Golden Core, which means a legendary Top-Grade Golden Core.

Such a monstrous talent suddenly emerging in the Lu Family, He Wuxiong thought of leaving to inform the He Family. No matter what, he intended to interrupt it; otherwise, if the Lu Family further gains a Middle Stage of Golden Core, or Late Stage of Golden Core, wouldn’t his He Family sooner or later be swallowed by the Lu Family?

Considering the Lu Family’s actions, forcibly dividing the Nightmare Blood Yin Vein’s interests, they undeniably still held resentment.

Just as he intended to walk out, Lu Shouren directly intended to make a move.

”It’s difficult to observe inside the hall; I just want to go outside for a look.” He Wuxiong casually found an excuse to cover up.

Lu Shouren coldly responded, ”Better be so. Then take a seat, Fellow Daoist... Before He You and Li Bai are finished, neither you nor I can go anywhere.”

”That is... natural.”

He Wuxiong’s face turned grim, unable to muster any smile. Seeing Li Bai’s condensing pill might expanding ever wider, even tending towards a hundred-li extension, He Wuxiong grew increasingly anxious.

Top-Grade Golden Core!

Absolutely a Top-Grade Golden Core!

Damn, how did the Lu Family end up with such a windfall!

The He Family’s efforts at penetrating the Lu Family were just beginning to bear some fruit, and before expanding further, this news of a Top-Grade Golden Core from the Lu Family springs out. Not to mention the future, just now, the Domain Lord of the West Mountain Floating Domain would likely soon have someone come to take an apprentice. In this way, the Lu Family’s future would likely be prosperous.

The He Family would eventually fall at the hands of the Lu Family, and over time, this person might become the Hidden Demon Sect’s greatest threat.

This won’t do.

The news must be spread.

...

At the same time.

He You’s condensing pill might finally couldn’t be sustained and collapsed with a bang, and He You, who was struggling to hold on in the Stone Hall, also collapsed on the ground, the Middle-Grade Golden Core formation that was in its final stages coming to an abrupt end.

”No---”

He You uttered a painful cry.

He You could try to reconstruct the condensing pill might, but the formation of the Middle-Grade Golden Core had already completely collapsed, its brilliant light gradually dimming, instantly falling to a Low-Rank Golden Core, and then to a false core.

”No!”

”Why!”

He You struggled to rise, attempting a last desperate effort, but was no longer able to capture any of the Yin spirit energy from the Nightmare Blood Yin Vein.

All the Yin spirit energy had already been seized by Li Bai’s condensing pill might, and couldn’t be pulled back no matter what.

Gradually.

The false core was fully formed.

At this moment, He You, overwhelmed with anger, spat out a mouthful of blood and fell unconscious in the Stone Hall due to excessive rage.

Perceiving the end of the Core Formation, He Wuxiong’s expression drastically changed, hastily heading towards the Stone Hall where He You was. However, with just him alone, he couldn’t open the Tier Three Array in the hall and could only wait for Lu Shouren to come over.

”Master Wu Jian, please help open the array.” He Wuxiong anxiously pleaded.

Lu Shouren shook his head in refusal, ”Fellow Daoist, there’s no need to be in such a rush. At least give the juniors some time for adjustment, right? Sudden intrusion disrupting the Core Formation, if this youngster even fails to form a false core, it’d be a great loss.”

”You—”

He Wuxiong’s eyes were ablaze, fists clenching tight.

Seeing this, Lu Shouren merely gave a cold sneer, his Sword Intent surged once more, ”I advise Daoist to refrain from any tricks.”

...

A day later.

Inside the Stone Hall.

As time slowly passed, and a large amount of Yin spirit energy, blood energy, and death energy poured in, the Undying Bone finally transformed completely into a Golden Core. A vast force of the Golden Core suddenly pierced through the array, soaring straight to the sky.

Causing Lu Shouren’s and He Wuxiong’s expressions to change drastically.

The former was delighted, the latter startled, because the freshly formed Golden Core possessed a might that left even them in palpitations, surely a Top-Grade Golden Core.

Meanwhile, as the Golden Core’s power shot skyward, countless dark clouds covering a hundred li gradually formed. At the initial stage, lightning surged within the clouds, its flickering radiance subtly exuding a terrifying aura, causing the expressions of the two to shift once more.

This time, Lu Shouren was frightened, while He Wuxiong was elated.

Because with the formation of a Top-Grade Golden Core comes a thunder tribulation, and only by withstanding it would the Core Formation be truly considered successful.

And upon seeing a blood-red celestial thunder brewing within, Lu Shouren was immediately stunned on the spot.

He Wuxiong, however, was filled with joy.

The initial stage of the thunder tribulation turned out to be the Red Sky Divine Thunder, something that even Golden Core Zhenren could not withstand!

At this moment, Wen Jiu, through the East Spring Undying Bone’s perception, also witnessed the scene, watching the dispersing condensing pill might, and with the corpse energy within East Spring Undying Bone only replenished to seventy percent, was left speechless.

”Having devoured decades of accumulation from the Nightmare Blood Yin Vein, yet only replenished to seventy.” But fortunately, after transforming into a Golden Core, the capacity for storing corpse energy of the Undying Bone increased several times over.

The current seventy percent clearly equaled multiples of the previous capacity, yet with it not being entirely filled, Wen Jiu felt a lingering unease.

”But there’s no turning back now, success or failure hinges on this shot.” Wen Jiu, through the eyes of the East Spring Undying Bone, eyed the gradually forming thunder tribulation overhead.
