Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

Chapter 613: Chapter 303: Farewell to Lin Langtian, Entering the Underground Palace

He didn’t care about Lin Langtian, only about the Core Formation.

He had anticipated that the Five Ghosts Transformation Pill, the Law-Devouring Yin Insect advancing to Tier Three, and his main body forming the core would cause a significant commotion, likely making the entire West Mountain Floating Domain aware and quickly spreading to other floating domains as well.

But all this required a process, and the people of Qi Guang Sect would greatly accelerate this process.

Letting more people pay attention to the western part of the West Mountain Floating Domain.

They would also notice the Celestial Yin Mountain Range.

It was uncertain how long the Cold Pond Mist Valley could remain stable.

”Forget it, I won’t worry about it. I’ll take it one step at a time. At worst, I’ll find another place to cultivate. Besides, they wouldn’t expect a Core Formation cultivator to remain in the Celestial Yin Mountain Range. But to be safe, after I return, I need to make use of that Tier Three Top-Grade Demon Artifact obtained from Yi Nian Guan Shan.”

Of course.

The main body wouldn’t use it.

Wen Jiu would only let the Formless Demon Corpse control it.

Because if something happened, he could abandon the Formless Demon Corpse.

...

Avoiding Lin Langtian and his companion, Wen Jiu headed straight for the Core Formation Land divined using the Corpse Fate Technique. It was known as the Acquired Death Land, created by the demon tribes, suitable for the Five Ghosts Transformation Pill, and perfect for the Law-Devouring Yin Insect’s tribulation crossing.

However, the Core Formation Land of the Five Ghosts was ten thousand miles away from the Yin Five Elements Imperial Palace, so Wen Jiu had to act separately from them. The East Spring Undying Bone followed Wen Jiu, while the Blood Demon Undying Bone and the Formless Demon Corpse went with the Five Ghosts.

After making a plan, Wen Jiu immediately controlled the East Spring Undying Bone, casting the Three Rivers Ghost Concealment towards the Yin Five Elements Underground Palace.

The Five Ghosts headed straight for the Core Formation Land.

After arriving and making preparations, under the protection of the Blood Demon Undying Bone and the Formless Demon Corpse, the Five Ghosts and the Law-Devouring Yin Insect began to assault the Golden Core. The Five Ghosts and the Law-Devouring Yin Insect were different; the Five Ghosts could form the core directly, while the Law-Devouring Yin Insect, having become an external possession after reaching Tier Two, also could form the core.

In fact, this issue didn’t exist in the Yinzhou Heterodox Record; otherwise, how could Yi Nian Guan Shan not create an External Golden Core until death? But due to daily mutations of the panel involving the Law-Devouring Yin Insect, an exception occurred, breaking the constraints of the Yinzhou Heterodox Record.

However, the cost was significant, enduring even fiercer thunder tribulations. But with the Blood Demon Undying Bone, the Formless Demon Corpse, Three Thousand Blood Inks, and even the East Spring Undying Bone, the Law-Devouring Yin Insect feared no tribulation.

Two days later, the momentum of core formation took shape.

The thunder tribulation manifest.

Even across ten thousand miles, one could see the thunder clouds atop the sky and hear the sound of divine thunder resonating through the heavens.

”It’s started.”

Wen Jiu also headed towards the Yin Five Elements Underground Palace, using Three Rivers Ghost Concealment and Hidden God Technique for protection. Upon entering the vicinity of the Celestial Yin Earth Pool within a thousand miles, without detecting any activity, Wen Jiu finally relaxed.

Entering caverns and descending caves, going further down, the Celestial Yin Qi became increasingly intense. Before reaching the Yin Five Elements Underground Palace, its concentration already exceeded that of the Celestial Yin Land within the Tier Three Spirit Gathering Array at Cold Pond Mist Valley.

Fortunately, with Spirit-Extinguishing Ghost Qi protecting him, Wen Jiu felt no discomfort whatsoever. Even after descending fifty miles underground, it remained the same. Upon passing through a narrow stone crevice, the Yin Five Elements Underground Palace was near at hand.

But entering the underground palace was not an easy task.

A vast Celestial Yin Land blocked the way, its concentration extraordinarily terrifying. Never mind a Foundation Establishment cultivator, even a Golden Core would have their spirit body instantly collapse upon entering. Luckily, Wen Jiu had the East Spring Undying Bone for protection; the Celestial Yin Qi subdued living beings, but the East Spring Undying Bone was a dead object, providing him safe passage through this Celestial Yin Land.

Nonetheless, it was still quite consuming.

For a thousand-zhang journey, the East Spring Undying Bone took half a day and consumed nearly thirty percent of its corpse qi. This thirty percent at a Tier Three Middle Realm level could easily compare to the previously full corpse qi, an act of terror.

Yet upon entering the underground palace, the sight that met Wen Jiu’s eyes left him somewhat astounded, making him realize why the Corpse Fate Technique couldn’t discern anything.

The underground palace wasn’t large, at its widest merely a hundred zhang, with only a narrow stone crevice for entrance, and no other exit.

But the Yin Five Elements Qi surging within was so pure that it left Wen Jiu astonished. The Qi had already liquefied, dense like a swamp, even beginning to crystallize.

However, what truly left Wen Jiu in awe were the Yin Five Elements objects within the underground palace.

In the spirit of Zang Qianjian, he had seen three kinds of items here: Tier Three Top-Grade Yin Stone Wood, Tier Three Top-Grade Hidden Yin Gold, and Tier Three Top-Grade Soulless Black Water. These were priceless items across the entire West Mountain Floating Domain, difficult to find even within the Immortal City where the Domain Lord’s Mansion was located.

Once, half a chi of Tier Three Top-Grade Yin Stone Wood had fetched a high price of seven hundred thousand middle-grade Spirit Stones, acquired by a late-stage Golden Core cultivator. Yet in the Yin Five Elements Underground Palace, Tier Three Top-Grade Yin Stone Wood rose like a stone forest, each piece three zhang high, totaling thirty in number.

Their value was self-evident.

The rest goes without saying; the value of any Yin Five Elements object was extremely high.

But unfortunately, none of the Yin Five Elements objects within the underground palace could be taken or destroyed. If destroyed, the balance of Yin Five Elements Power in the underground palace would instantly break, leading to its collapse. As for those Yin Five Elements objects, they would immediately lose all spirituality.

Because they were born with the palace, in a symbiotic relationship; if the latter perished, they would dissipate along with it.

”What a pity.”

Wen Jiu lamented.

If he could take them away, he would never have to worry about Spirit Stones in the future. Even if he couldn’t sell them all at once, he could sell a little each year.

The Tier Three Top-Grade Yin Five Elements objects in this underground palace alone could cultivate the Three Corpses, Five Ghosts, and Law-Devouring Yin Insect to the Tier Three Peak, on par with Golden Core Perfection.

A moment later.

Wen Jiu gathered his thoughts and decided, after confirming even the Divine Sense of East Spring Undying Bone couldn’t penetrate the Yin Five Elements Underground Palace, to start arranging the Celestial Yin Qi Absorption Technique, waiting for the success of the Five Ghosts in forming their core to nourish himself.

...

Meanwhile, Lin Langtian and the Guardian Golden Core Elder suddenly turned their attention to the Core Formation Land of the Five Ghosts.

The two were quite surprised.

”It is indeed the momentum of core formation!”

The Guardian Golden Core Elder exclaimed in astonishment.

Lin Langtian also looked gravely towards the sea of lightning, ”Uncle Que, could this be the momentum of a Top-Grade Golden Core’s formation?”

”That’s not the point, my astonishment isn’t at the Top-Grade Golden Core.” The Guardian Golden Core Elder hurriedly took out a Communication Stone, not caring for much else.

Lin Langtian was somewhat puzzled, ”Uncle Que, aren’t you surprised by the Top-Grade Golden Core?”

If he remembered correctly.

Top-Grade Golden Cores could be found across the entire West Mountain Floating Domain, possibly only a few appearing every thousand years.

And for a Top-Grade Golden Core to appear in the West Mountain Floating Domain, it was something not seen for thousands of years.

This legendary scene appearing before their eyes, and Uncle Que wasn’t surprised?

The Guardian Golden Core Elder quickly explained, ”Young Master, you misunderstand. You were always busy preparing for Core Formation and did not know. Recently, two Top-Grade Golden Cores have already appeared in the western part of the West Mountain Floating Domain. First was Li Bai of the Lu Family from East Pole Immortal City, and then a notorious Heterodox Wanderer.

Now there’s another Top-Grade Golden Core. The last time Top-Grade Golden Cores appeared in the West Mountain Floating Domain was thousands of years ago. Why has it become a blowout phenomenon? What is happening, is the sky over the West Mountain Floating Domain about to change?”

Upon hearing the Guardian Golden Core Elder’s explanation, Lin Langtian was momentarily frozen, unable to believe as he looked at the distant thunder tribulation.

Uncle Que,

are you not lying to me?

However, even if Lin Langtian could not believe it, he could only accept this reality.

”This person intentionally formed the core in the core area of the Celestial Yin Mountain Range, evidently trying to hide. We merely came seeking the ancestor, yet accidentally witnessed this scene.” The Guardian Golden Core Elder was quick to communicate with the sect.

In his view, regardless of this person’s identity, it was an unprecedented opportunity for Qi Guang Sect.

If they could win him over,

Qi Guang Sect would surely rise another level.

Even if they couldn’t win him over, forming a good relationship with him would still be an enormous boon for Qi Guang Sect.

After all, anyone who could form a Top-Grade Golden Core, as long as they didn’t die prematurely, has never appeared in history as anything but below Golden Core Perfection.
