Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

Chapter 641: Chapter 315: Wuxinming’s Generosity and Doorstep Congratulations

While drinking, Wen Jiu had heard Wuxinming mention two people. The male cultivator was named Zhong Qi, known as Mad Saber Zhenren, and he was the current sect leader of the Cyan Moon Sect, a heterodox Golden Core influence in the eastern part of the West Mountain Floating Domain.

The female cultivator was named Li Zhi, known as Blood Moon Zhenren, originally the only daughter of the previous sect leader of the Cyan Moon Sect, and Zhong Qi was the previous sect leader’s senior disciple. After Zhong Qi entered the Golden Core, becoming the Cyan Moon Sect’s second Golden Core cultivator, he helped Li Zhi forge a low-rank Golden Core, and the two then became Daoist partners.

The third person was an elder cultivator named Zhao Ya, known as Black Crow Zhenren, who was also the leader of the Golden Core influence in the southern part of the West Mountain Floating Domain. Wen Jiu had also met him once; he didn’t have much impression of Zhong Qi and Li Zhi, as they were very polite upon first meeting, but he remembered Zhao Ya quite vividly because his every action seemed overshadowed by an air of decay, evidently not having much time left.

These three people coming together with Wuxinming, the decisive battle couldn’t be just to offer congratulations because the Golden Core cultivators Wuxinming knows are more than just these three. Most likely, these three have the same objective, or they’re all heading for Master Witch behind Gongyang Fu. After all, if Wuxinming really plotted for a Tier Three Top-Grade Yin Pill, it would be hard for him alone to gather the Yin Evil Spiritual Medicine required.

Since it’s difficult for early-stage Golden Core cultivators to access late-stage Golden Core cultivation resources, the four of them probably have a better chance working together.

Wen Jiu didn’t think too much about it, raised his hand to greet them.

Zhao Ya didn’t immediately respond, and seeing that Wuxinming had specifically come to find Wen Jiu, he frowned and asked, ”Fellow Daoist Wu, didn’t we agree? Just the four of us, why are you suddenly adding another person?”

Aside from them, Zhong Qi and Li Zhi didn’t speak, but they were also watching Wuxinming, waiting for his answer.

Wuxinming quickly spoke, ”The three of you mustn’t overthink, that matter is only for the four of us. I’m here to find Master He because his ancestor and I share a life-and-death bond, so I’m just bringing him along. Since he’s reclusive by nature, he doesn’t buy servants even when urged. If I don’t help a bit, who in Donghua Immortal City would help him?”

”That’s fine then.” Zhao Ya finally relaxed, raised his hand, and greeted Wen Jiu with a nod, ”Let’s go together then.”

Zhong Qi and Li Zhi also nodded in greeting one after another without saying much, heading towards Gongyang Fu’s residence.

Midway there, Zhao Ya suddenly asked, ”Master He, do you have any expertise in the hundred arts of cultivation?”

”Corpse Dao has already consumed too much of my time, I really don’t have time to delve into the hundred arts of cultivation.”

Wen Jiu replied.

Though he didn’t know why Zhao Ya suddenly asked that, Wen Jiu wasn’t keen on having too much interaction with Zhao Ya.

Zhao Ya stroked his beard and nodded, ”True, Corpse Dao is already quite challenging.”

Zhao Ya didn’t say more, inwardly believing Wen Jiu’s excuse of seeking refuge in Donghua Immortal City to avoid calamity. If it wasn’t truly to avoid disaster, why would a heterodox Daoist, without any cultivation artistry to leverage, waste time residing in East Pole Immortal City? If it was to broaden his connections, then Wen Jiu should not be completely unknown even to his neighbors.

For someone like him, Zhao Ya had no interest and no future intention of visiting him.

Only feeling that sending small gifts during festivals would suffice.

Next to him, Zhong Qi and Li Zhi didn’t consider visiting during festivals, but they also didn’t take Wen Jiu too seriously. In Donghua Immortal City, with so many Golden Core cultivators, they had a sense of who was worth the effort to deepen ties with and who wasn’t.

Someone like Wen Jiu, especially with his family in dire straits, truly wasn’t worth investing heavily in.

Not offending would be enough.

Without knowing what the three thought, Wen Jiu walked behind them, and in no time, they arrived at Gongyang Fu’s residence. There were quite a few Golden Core cultivators coming and going, even mid-stage Golden Core cultivators were visiting.

Though Gongyang Fu was greeting guests at the door, he maintained a face of calm enthusiasm, regardless of whom he faced.

Even mid-stage Golden Core cultivators.

Upon seeing that many Golden Core cultivators only had their disciples deliver congratulatory gifts instead of attending personally, Wen Jiu had a moment of realization.

It seems all these visiting Golden Core cultivators each came with a purpose. Gongyang Fu only allowed Golden Core cultivators to visit, likely for this reason. After all, how much could one earn working for a Foundation Establishment influence?

Right at that moment, Wuxinming stepped forward, first offering the Tier Three Lower Grade Yin Evil Spirit Medicine Blood Heart Hundred Lotus he had prepared. Although it was only Tier Three Lower Grade, it was an extremely rare item.

Though its value wasn’t on par with Tier Three Middle Grade items, it was close enough and rare in the market. Most importantly, it’s one of the main ingredients for refining Tier Three Middle Grade Blood Heart Pill, extremely precious for heterodox Body Refining cultivators.

Even an offering from a Golden Core influence would find it very valuable. The introductory gift Wind and Cloud Immortal City provided was only slightly better. But the situations were different; this time Gongyang Fu was merely celebrating the birth of a child.

In fact, Gongyang Fu already had seven or eight children.

Possessing the manner of a dignified Alchemy Master from a great sect, Gongyang Fu maintained a warm yet indifferent smile, ”Fellow Daoist, please take a seat at table number five.”

Following that, Zhao Ya, Zhong Qi, and Li Zhi each presented their gifts, only slightly less than Wuxinming’s. When Wuxinming mentioned that they were fellow Taoists, the three were also assigned to table number five.

Wen Jiu only brought a Pseudo-Tier Three Corpse Evil Pearl, valued around five million low-grade Spirit Stones.

Amidst the many Golden Core gifts, it was almost at the bottom tier.

Upon seeing the Corpse Evil Pearl, Wuxinming shook his head helplessly. Zhao Ya, Zhong Qi, and Li Zhi didn’t pay attention and went straight into the residence. Gongyang Fu couldn’t help but take another look at Wen Jiu and then carefully inspected the Corpse Evil Pearl.

”Fellow Daoist, this Corpse Evil Pearl is quite well-refined, something ordinary Corpse Cultivators can’t produce.”

Gongyang Fu didn’t reject him and also seemed to realize that this person probably didn’t have any requests for himself. Upon a sound transmission inquiry, it turned out he lived nearby and was compelled to come and congratulate.

”Thank you for the Corpse Evil Pearl, it could be used while refining Yin Pills. Daoist, please sit wherever you like.”

Upon Gongyang Fu’s words, a maid from the residence immediately stepped forward to escort Wen Jiu inside, though he wasn’t arranged to sit in a corner of the hall, it was quite near the entrance. Those around him were all aged elder cultivators.

Wen Jiu didn’t mind, but Wuxinming suddenly sent him a secret message, ”See, with that gift of yours, your seat is practically at the threshold. I don’t even know what to say to you, my Spirit Stones don’t cost you interest.”

”Fellow Daoist Wu, if it weren’t for living nearby, I wouldn’t even want to come.” Wen Jiu replied calmly, not further engaging.

As time passed, another seven or eight Golden Core guests were seated, and when no more Golden Core cultivators arrived after a while, Gongyang Fu entered the hall, raised a few cups, and then began inviting each table’s Golden Core Zhenren to the backyard.

Clearly.

They were going to discuss transactions.

Before long, Wuxinming and the other three were also invited to the backyard. Wen Jiu had already left a subtle corpse qi mark on his magic robe. Thus, the words spoken by the three and Gongyang Fu reached his ears verbatim.

As expected.

They indeed came for the Tier Three Top-Grade Yin Pill, named Divine Storage Three Thousand Spiritless Yin Pills.

Tier Three Top-Grade.

For an early-stage Golden Core cultivator, it was something they could only hear about. Even for middle-stage Golden Core cultivators, obtaining one was difficult, and the channels to acquire it certainly weren’t through purchase. The only way was to gather the Yin Evil Spiritual Medicine.

Invite a Tier Three High-grade Yin Alchemist to perform alchemy!

Its effect is to increase Golden Core cultivators’ success rate in a realm breakthrough. If an early-stage Golden Core cultivator breaks through to the middle stage, even if it’s just low-rank Golden Core, the chance of success can increase by 50%. For those with a deep foundation, it practically ensures a breakthrough.

However good the effect, the more difficult it is to gather the required Yin Evil Spiritual Medicine. But Wuxinming, Zhong Qi, Li Zhi, and Zhao Ya really did pool resources together. After accepting their collective gifts amounting to two to three million low-grade Spirit Stones, Gongyang Fu finally nodded.

It’s a pity; he didn’t catch what Gongyang Fu said he needed. Even if he discreetly acted, fiddling insidiously on most cultivators seeking Gongyang Fu’s aid, he still couldn’t find useful information.

After those holding distinguished spots met Gongyang Fu, he found an excuse to disperse the gathering.

But unexpectedly, he called him over.

”Master He, my master wishes to see you.” The steward from Gongyang Fu’s residence respectfully blocked Wen Jiu’s path.
