Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

”Great destiny!”

Wen Jiu was overjoyed.

At the same time, he couldn’t help but marvel at the wonders of the Corpse Fate Technique once perfected.

However, he was also quite curious about the so-called lurking evil corpse remnants when the Life Plate parsed the Celestial Secrets and Destiny. Just what are these evil corpse remnants, and judging by the results, they’ve evidently noticed outsiders have entered the Spiritless Death Secret Realm Cave Heaven.

Are these supposed living beings actually alive, or mere strangers? If they are alive, Lin Hai must leave, but if they are merely strangers, Lin Hai can remain to help probe for hidden traps.

And what is this mournful cry lurking within the darkness that mustn’t be answered? Without understanding this clearly, Wen Jiu felt uneasy. The current Spiritless Death Secret Realm Cave Heaven surely suits his purpose, but the potential threats are too many, making it unworthy of sheltering Qi Guang Sect.

”Seems Lin Hai can’t leave yet, not until we deal with East Spring Undying Bone, at least allow East Spring Undying Bone some time to perform the Blood Corpse Escape. As for Zhongji, it’s reliable but not wholly trustworthy.” Wen Jiu immediately decided, letting Lin Hai continue forward, but upon reconsideration, realized this is not the solution.

The mournful cry shrouded in darkness is a potential threat; the Life Plate parsing shows not to respond, but Wen Jiu knew well that his Life Plate couldn’t fully and accurately parse all Celestial Secrets and Destiny information.

”The acquisition of the Innate Fate Derivation Object might need to be expedited.” Wen Jiu glanced at Zhao Ming’s dwelling. Of course, using Elixir Pills forcibly to accelerate growth at the expense of foundation and essence is not something he would do, for Zhao Ming was the first disciple he accepted.

Although there are motives, a disciple is ultimately still a disciple.

Wen Jiu suddenly realized, ”Oh, right, there’s also the Amber Witch Thought Killing Array available. The Amber Witch Thought Killing Array can detect murderous intent towards East Spring Undying Bone within a range of thousands of miles, which should suffice to cover the entire Spiritless Death Secret Realm Cave Heaven, and even if it can’t cover it fully, it should provide complete safety.”

Wen Jiu promptly inquired to Lin Hai ahead, although the Amber Witch Thought Killing Array requires items from the wizard lineage, Wen Jiu remembered that Qi Guang Sect’s Hidden Technique encompasses wizard lineage spells, he didn’t believe Lin Hai didn’t empty the sect’s treasury upon leaving the ancestral grounds, nor did he believe Qi Guang Sect’s years of accumulation wouldn’t include materials for a basic Amber Witch Thought Killing Array.

”Do you have items from Qi Guang Sect’s treasury on you?” Wen Jiu controlled East Spring Undying Bone to ask, causing Lin Hai’s face to change abruptly, glancing at the corpse aura surrounding him in anxiety.

”Corpse Ancestor... this...”

Lin Hai stammered.

Wen Jiu interrupted him, ”I need some simple materials and treasures, tier three lower-grade items, or common pseudo-tier three items. If I required your sect’s treasury, would I need to coerce you now?”

”I didn’t mean that.” Lin Hai heaved a sigh of relief, awkwardly smiling, ”What does the senior need?”

”One tier three lower-grade Dark Moon Black Stone, ten bottles of tier three lower-grade Witch Power Essence, sixteen pieces of pseudo-tier three Witch Ancestor Celestial Gazing Stone Slab...” Wen Jiu stated the requirements for the Amber Witch Thought Killing Array.

Lin Hai listened attentively and searched his storage pouch, finally speaking after a while, ”Everything the Corpse Ancestor requires is from the common items of the wizard lineage, and Qi Guang Sect has very few cultivators of this lineage, resulting in minimal consumption; most are still in the treasury. Although I didn’t rescue much from the treasury this time, I have everything the Corpse Ancestor needs.”

Wen Jiu didn’t expose Lin Hai; that last statement was likely false, considering he even brought out the sect’s millennia-old Hidden Techniques, so how could he not have retrieved crucial sect treasury items?

”Hand over everything to me.”

Lin Hai nodded, hurriedly taking out items one by one. Wen Jiu controlled East Spring Undying Bone to receive them one by one, starting to arrange the tier three lower-grade Amber Witch Thought Killing Array. Though tier three lower-grade, witch arrays aren’t spirit arrays; they lack the intricate and meticulous nature of spirit arrays and Yin arrays due to the wizard lineage’s simpler methods, understandable even to mortals, with ancient records even describing common Qi Refining Cultivators constructing tier three witch arrays.

Whether in the correct or heterodox Dao, such occurrences are impossible.

Of course, constructing such an array is one thing, using it another. Whether a Qi Refining Cultivator can use a tier three witch array is uncertain, but death is certainly the inevitable outcome.

The cultivation and use of the wizard lineage spells depend more on bloodline; the more extraordinary the bloodline, the easier to wield witch powers. Without wizard bloodline, the best way to use wizard items is to withstand with Divine Soul, or like Zhong Qi, be corrupted by witch powers.

The concept of witches here is akin to an Evil God, intangible yet seemingly real as it indeed grants power, but once corrupted by it, one slowly becomes a puppet. Neither the correct Dao nor heterodox sect can resist it, but perhaps Demon Dao might.

After all, compared to demons, witches are insignificant.

Witches don’t even qualify to touch the realm of evil, how can they be on par with demons, the source of chaos and disorder?

Wen Jiu had tried multiple times before; even his original form could resist the witch powers’ corruption using Divine Soul, and East Spring Undying Bone was no exception. Upon the Amber Witch Thought Killing Array’s formation, Wen Jiu controlled East Spring Undying Bone to communicate with it, and a formless and ancient power immediately fell upon East Spring Undying Bone’s Divine Soul, instantly extending the original divine sense’s reach from a thousand feet to over six or seven thousand miles.

However, beyond the thousand-feet reach, East Spring Undying Bone’s divine sense perception was no longer comprehensive, sensing only a vague presence, which was killing intent, but for some reason, East Spring Undying Bone sensed more than just killing intent directed at itself.
