Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

Chapter 674: Chapter 326: Harvesting New Corpses, Karma Descends [6K Word Chapter]_3

Can you associate these things so quickly?

It’s truly a pity you don’t write story scripts.

When the message was transmitted, Wen Jiu had just controlled the East Spring Undying Bone to retreat into his cave dwelling, and the Soul Capturing Power fell with a roar. A Middle Stage of Golden Core cultivator might evade it, but two Early Stage of Golden Core cultivators had no time to react.

”Husband...”

In her final moments of clarity, Li Zhi could only utter those two words, her eyes filled with longing and reluctance.

Zhong Qi was left with nothing but hatred.

He hated He Jiu.

He hated Gongyang Fu.

He hated Master Witch.

He hated Du Yueqing and so on.

...

After dealing with Zhong Qi, Wen Jiu perused the related memories of the Amber Witch Thought Killing Array, feeling somewhat disappointed.

Zhong Qi could only use the Amber Witch Thought Killing Array to capture killing intent within several thousand miles, but he couldn’t see its detailed realm nor pinpoint its exact location, even though Zhong Qi had practiced this technique for over a hundred years.

But it wasn’t that Zhong Qi was incompetent.

It’s just that the Amber Witch Thought Killing Array itself had issues; since it was always witchcraft, only a wizard could practice it.

Unlike Corpse Ghosts, witchcraft, though practiced, can only impart a superficial understanding to heterodox cultivators.

”What a pity, I originally thought to pair it with a perfected realm Corpse Fate Technique to create a completely safe cultivation environment for myself,” sighed Wen Jiu, though he wasn’t entirely disappointed, as it wasn’t completely unusable.

Perhaps a surprise awaits in the daily settlement panel?

After sending Zhong Qi and his companion to the netherworld, Wen Jiu stored the Divine Storage Three Thousand Spiritless Yin Pills away. Two of these pills: one could be used by Du Chan, but Wen Jiu wasn’t sure who to give the other one to at the moment.

Currently, he controls three Soul Control Golden Cores.

Lu Feng isn’t quite capable, and the Divine Storage Three Thousand Spiritless Yin Pill isn’t enough to help him achieve a realm breakthrough.

And as for He Jiu, no need to mention, he’ll definitely send him off to the west in due time.

”No one to use them on,” Wen Jiu remarked, but he wasn’t concerned. These Divine Storage Three Thousand Spiritless Yin Pills would be useful eventually. Their scarcity is unquestionable; otherwise, Du Yueqing from the Celestial Splendor Treasure Pavilion wouldn’t have needed to go this far.

The origins of the Celestial Splendor Treasure Pavilion are unknown for now. The Corpse Fate Technique involves Nascent Soul level cultivators, but what is certain is that the Celestial Splendor Treasure Pavilion is widespread in the lower reaches of the Tongtian River, possibly being a force behind the East Splendor Divine Palace.

Of course.

Du Yueqing having to go this route might also have reasons. It’s unlikely that a place like the Celestial Splendor Treasure Pavilion in the lower reaches of the Tongtian River, where Nascent Souls exist, wouldn’t be able to buy the Divine Storage Three Thousand Spiritless Yin Pills. The specifics, it seems, can only be known by inquiring Gongyang Fu.

After collecting what needed to be collected, Wen Jiu controlled the East Spring Undying Bone to store the corpse of the Middle Stage Golden Core Demon Cultivator.

The two corpses soon vanished without a trace. Although it wasn’t long before Golden Core cultivators arrived at the scene, they could only feel the intimidating aura of the Land of Absolute Spirit spanning thousands of feet, reluctant to investigate further.

As for why the Middle Stage Golden Core Demon Cultivator wasn’t killed earlier,

there was only one reason: Wen Jiu discovered an important issue when searching his soul memory.

The Demon Cultivator had a restriction within his body, from a Late Stage Golden Core cultivator, which the East Spring Undying Bone couldn’t dissolve. The restriction posed no harm and had no significant effect but would result in soul extinction.

Soul of the Demon Slayer.

Upon discovering this information from his soul memory, Wen Jiu immediately abandoned the thought of killing him.

If he were to die, the Life Soul Lamp would be extinguished.

With the Life Soul Lamp extinguished, the restriction would trigger, causing soul extinction and destroying all memories.

As for why the Demon Cultivator is killed now, it’s because Wen Jiu discovered what the restriction was protecting.

First.

The location of the True Spirit Demon Tree!

After the True Spirit Demon Tree in the Celestial Yin Mountain Range was devoured, the branch master of the Dark Altar Lineage urgently relocated all the True Spirit Demon Trees to hidden places. Regarding the Dark Altar where the Middle Stage Golden Core Demon Cultivator was, the True Spirit Demon Tree was even brought into a Land of Death in the West Mountain Floating Domain where even Golden Core cultivators dare not enter lightly.

It must be said, very decisive.

Second.

The method of storing the True Spirit Demon Tree.

Previously, the vast majority of Dark Altar Demon Cultivators weren’t allowed to learn the storage method, because the Demon Cultivators didn’t even trust their own.

However, due to the previous incident, the branch master of the Dark Altar Lineage had no choice but to pass down the storage method.

The most crucial part of the restriction was its guarding purpose. If someone attempted a Soul Searching, the restriction would also trigger a soul extinction.

...

In the blink of an eye, half a month passed.

Wen Jiu didn’t control the East Spring Undying Bone to immediately head to the location of the second True Spirit Demon Tree, because once the Life Soul Lamp of that Middle Stage Golden Core Demon Cultivator was extinguished, the Dark Altar Lineage would certainly focus their attention on the True Spirit Demon Tree.

Of course.

If he hadn’t killed that Middle Stage Golden Core Demon Cultivator, it would not have alarmed the Dark Altar Lineage’s Demon Cultivators, but the other party could still ascertain its location via the Life Soul Lamp. In summary, there’s no perfect solution.

But Wen Jiu wasn’t concerned, as currently nurturing the Celestial Yin Demon Blood Medicine for Corpse Nourishing proves quite effective, yielding a fixed monthly experience of 2,500 points, making it unnecessary to seek out the True Spirit Demon Tree for devouring just yet.

Over half a month, Wen Jiu occasionally controlled the East Spring Undying Bone to study the East Spring Water Demon Body, sometimes practicing the Amber Witch Thought Killing Array. Entry was simple enough; items of the Wizard lineage, though scarce, could still be purchased. Hence, Wen Jiu occasionally disguised himself to stroll around Donghua Immortal City and easily constructed a Tier Three Lower Grade Amber Witch Thought Killing Array.

However, constructing the array was just the simplest part; the real difficulty lay in practicing the witchcraft. Since he wasn’t a wizard, even with the assistance of Yin Spirit Stones, progress after entry was painstakingly slow, with small success requiring at least a year. Achieving perfection in the Corpse Fate Technique would take a similar amount of time, so Wen Jiu wasn’t in a hurry.

During this period, when Wen Jiu went out in disguise, he occasionally inquired about Zhong Qi and their situation. Half a month had passed, and the news of Zhong Qi and his companion’s death hadn’t spread widely. Perhaps the Cyan Moon Sect was forcibly suppressing news of their Life Soul Lamp’s extinguishment, though it likely wouldn’t stay suppressed for long.
