Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

Chapter 486: Chapter 249: Arrival at Wind and Cloud Immortal City, Pei Wuxing’s Welcome Gift

On the way to Wind and Cloud Immortal City, Pei Wuxing did not take a detour. Instead, he boldly piloted his flying ship past the battlefield between the Heterodox Dao forces of the Divine Fall Mountain Range and the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks, causing great alarm among the latter.

After all, no one could guarantee that Wind and Cloud Immortal City, which did not participate in battles the days before, wouldn’t join today. The Heterodox Dao is known for its unpredictability. However, when the Fake Pill Cultivator stationed on the front lines of the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks quietly rushed over and found that Pei Wuxing’s flying ship was just passing by, they breathed a sigh of relief.

However.

When the flying ship passed the battlefield, they saw Pei Wuxing standing with a Corpse Cultivator, and the Vice City Lord of Wind and Cloud Immortal City, Chu Ying, humbly standing behind with a tea tray. This sight horrified the Fake Pill Cultivator of the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks, prompting them to hastily report to their sect, sparking wild speculations by Bao Tiangai and Qu Wuyi.

Wen Jiu knew exactly why Pei Wuxing deliberately passed by the battlefield, under the pretext of showing him the truth of the Divine Fall Mountain Range. It’s just a ploy; getting seventy percent profit isn’t that easy.

Nonetheless, Du the Corpse Cultivator was just an alias. If there were any real issues, it was like with the Lu Family; he could withdraw at any time. The Lu Family had the ability to compel him to sign a Spirit Contract, but Pei Wuxing lacked that capability.

”Did Fellow Daoist Du see the battle situation just now?” After crossing a thousand miles of battlefield, Pei Wuxing sat back down in a nearby ancient pavilion.

Wen Jiu remained silent, quietly awaiting Pei Wuxing’s next words.

Pei Wuxing said with a smile, ”This great battle is being driven by a massive force behind the scenes. The Divine Fall Mountain Range will only become more chaotic in the future, and the chances of the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks being defeated are high. However, this will take a dozen or twenty years at least. In days gone by, Wind and Cloud Immortal City had only me, and the business at the entrance to the Heaven-Reaching River couldn’t be too large, and I always kept a low profile. But now with Fellow Daoist Du’s involvement, I have a bold idea that could absolutely double or triple your profits.”

”What idea?”

Wen Jiu asked through sound transmission.

A profit of ten to twenty million Low-grade Spirit Stones was already something Wen Jiu had seen before. If it were to double or triple, honestly speaking, it would be faster than gaining Spirit Stones by killing and seizing treasures. Of course, combining it with killing and seizing treasures would be even more profitable.

The East Pole Immortal City is such a treasure trove, not lacking resources, and certainly not lacking Heterodox Corpse Nourishing resources.

The only thing to fear is lacking Spirit Stones.

Pei Wuxing didn’t continue, but instead kept him in suspense, having Chu Ying serve tea before inquiring about his background, ”Fellow Daoist Du, a joint venture between the two of us makes earning Spirit Stones quite easy. However, since it’s a collaboration, we must understand each other completely. You know that I am the City Lord of Wind and Cloud Immortal City, but I only know your surname is Du. Of course, I am not trying to pry into your background; I just want to know more, so I can be better informed. It will also help in making precise moves in the future, considering the backgrounds involved in both the Three Life Gates and the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks.”

”Just a Rootless Wanderer, I advise Fellow Daoist Du not to probe too much into some matters; knowing too much might bring more trouble. Across the entire Hundred Floating Domains, the Qi Guang Sect is merely a mid-tier power.”

Wen Jiu warned, not even bothering to make up an identity.

After all, he came here to grab Spirit Stones. If you don’t hand them over, he’ll just finish you off. Would a Tribulation Cultivator tell you their identity?

Hearing this, Pei Wuxing’s expression gradually changed, seemingly displeased, but in the end, he suppressed it. Considering the strength that Du the Corpse Cultivator displayed, his background couldn’t be small, and knowing that he received this information from the Lu Family clearly indicated he didn’t have shallow connections with the Lu Family’s ancestors.

Forget it.

Let it be.

What does it matter to know his background?

Though he was the foremost in the Heterodox Dao at the Divine Fall Mountain Range, in the Hundred Floating Domains... No, not even here, in the West Mountain Floating Domain, is he considered a significant figure, unable even to stabilize a Golden Core Influence. After all, across the entire West Mountain Floating Domain, which Golden Core Influence doesn’t have two or three Golden Core Zhenrens?

A lone individual trying to form any Golden Core Influence would merely expose themselves as easy prey.

...

After half a day.

Arriving at Wind and Cloud Immortal City.

Unlike previous visits to Wind and Cloud Immortal City, today the city was bustling, with Daoist Wei and Vice City Lord Lin in attendance, and numerous Foundation Establishment Cultivators respectfully waiting outside the city.

With drums booming, firecrackers crackling, Spirit Beasts flying and crying out; it was a lively scene that left Loose Cultivators large and small around Wind and Cloud Immortal City filled with confusion. Who could this be that deserves such a grand welcome from the first Independent Practitioner Immortal City in the Divine Fall Mountain Range?

Even if the Golden Core Ancestor of the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks were to visit personally, it might not merit such grandiosity.

Seeing this scene, Wen Jiu glanced at Pei Wuxing beside him, smiling faintly, and lightly reminded, ”Using Du Mou’s name to enhance the prestige of your Wind and Cloud Immortal City... Fellow Daoist Pei, there’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world.”

Pei Wuxing twitched his mouth, nodding, ”Rest assured, Fellow Daoist Du, a generous gift will follow shortly.”

It was clear to Pei Wuxing now.

This Du the Corpse Cultivator had fallen right into a heap of Spirit Stones.

Even his eyes seemed like the shape of Spirit Stones.

But this was fine, after all, spending Spirit Stones to solve matters was preferable to those powers who only oppressed with force.

”Vice City Lord Lin Suqiu of Wind and Cloud Immortal City, along with all the cultivators, pays respects to Master Du. We welcome Master Du to the Immortal City!”

”Daoist Wei, the Vice City Lord of Wind and Cloud Immortal City, along with all the cultivators, pays respects to Master Du. Welcome Master Du to the Immortal City!”

”Pay respects to Master Du!”

”Pay respects to Master Du!”

Vice City Lord Lin Suqiu and Daoist Wei, leading two or three hundred Foundation Establishment Cultivators, waited respectfully in the air on either side outside the city. After they spoke, the two or three hundred Foundation Establishment Cultivators followed, loudly greeting.
