Chapter 141: Chapter 117 Secret Technique

“Thousand-Mile Sound Transmission Talisman!” Li Shiming knew that Ren Fei’er used a very special method to send the transformed corpse refining records; a “Thousand-Mile Sound Transmission Talisman” isn’t just limited to a thousand miles but is a precious talisman capable of ultra-long-distance communication.

Ren Fei’er even used such a precious “Thousand-Mile Sound Transmission Talisman” for something that wasn’t urgent.

But since the “Thousand-Mile Sound Transmission Talisman” had already arrived, he opened a gap in the small Mountain Protection Array to let the bird fly into the main array.

The bird flew into the cave dwelling, landing in front of Li Shiming and spat out a small storage bag before disappearing.

“Are they all so extravagant?” Li Shiming couldn’t help but exclaim as he looked at the storage bag.

This storage bag was noticeably specially made, not one of the mass-produced standard storage bags.

No matter how spacious it was inside, this storage bag wouldn’t be cheap.

Li Shiming picked up the storage bag, infused it with Spiritual Power, and sensed that inside there were a Jade Scroll, an Array Plate, and sixteen Mid-grade Spirit Stones.

“Big brother, did you receive it? I had to beg for a long time to get that Array Plate!” Ren Fei’er’s eager voice came through the communication jade plaque.

“Fei’er, I’ve received it; this is too precious,” Li Shiming felt undeserving of such generosity.

He had traded an LED light for the superior Soul Device Black Sparrow Wing, and now he had also received so many valuable items, making him feel like he was deceiving a child.

“Oh dear, my mother is coming, gotta go!” Ren Fei’er sent another message before cutting off the communication.

Li Shiming pulled out the Jade Scroll first, pressed it to his forehead, and a stream of information transferred into his brain while the IBM z15 recorded it.

Within the Jade Scroll was not just simple information, but a secret technique, a secret technique regarding Corpse Refining.

This secret technique was developed specifically for repairing refined corpses. As long as the head of the corpse was unscathed, the same strength corpse could repair the refined corpse.

However, such a secret technique surely must have some irreplicable reason for not being widespread.

Li Shiming had also discovered this reason: the technique required a magical array known as the Netherworld Ghost Realm Array. Based on this array, the technique could be applied to the refined corpses.

Additionally, the Netherworld Ghost Realm Array also strengthened the refined corpses, as staying within it for an extended period could accelerate their growth.

The secret technique mentioned a layout for the Netherworld Ghost Realm Array, but the most difficult aspect wasn’t setting up the array; it was the basic materials needed, which involved a third-grade spiritual item called Netherworld Crystal.

A third-grade spiritual item, such a standard item, was beyond Li Shiming’s reach even if he traded all he owned.

Third-grade spiritual items are only accessible to Golden Core Elders.

No wonder this secret technique wasn’t widely distributed; just the essential Netherworld Crystal almost completely prevented the technique’s spread.

Li Shiming’s expression changed as he picked up the Array Plate also sent by Ren Fei’er. This Array Plate was completely black, made of a type of black crystal stone.

For a moment, he silently gazed at the Array Plate. Though he had saved Ren Fei’er, the items she sent were exceedingly precious.

This was the finished Netherworld Ghost Realm Array Plate, to be used together with the secret technique.

Even Ren Fei’er sent sixteen Mid-grade Spirit Stones to power the Netherworld Ghost Realm Array Plate, likely knowing that Li Shiming had almost no access to Mid-grade Spirit Stones.

“Fei’er, did you steal these? Hurry and take them back to me!” Li Shiming, after a moment’s hesitation and not without concern, sent a message.

After a long wait, Ren Fei’er finally replied.

“When have I ever stolen anything? I asked it from my uncle!” Ren Fei’er’s reply was somewhat unhappy and a bit aggrieved.

Li Shiming didn’t know what to say, deciding he would inquire more the next time they met.

What he didn’t know was that Ren Fei’er didn’t need to steal; she had simply coaxed the Xuanming Sect’s elder who was best at refining corpses, persuading him to give her an Array Plate he no longer used.

Li Shiming took the Netherworld Ghost Realm Array Plate back to the underground space. The previously prepared Five Elements Array Flags had matured near the spiritual vein, ideal for setting up an isolated area to arrange the Netherworld Ghost Realm Array inside.

The Five Elements Array Flags were inserted into the ground near the Spiritual Spring. As he manipulated his Spiritual Power, a separate space was formed inside.

After reviewing the secret technique, he knew the successful setup of the Netherworld Ghost Realm Array would create a Ghost Domain. Although it was greatly beneficial for Corpse Refining, it could affect the surrounding environment.

He didn’t want the underground space to transform into a Ghost Domain because he had other uses for it, and it might even affect the emergence of spirit fish.

The Netherworld Ghost Realm Array Plate was set in the designated spot, placing four Mid-grade Spirit Stones inside it, and activated according to the method described in the secret technique.

Immediately, within the designated space, black mist appeared in the air, the temperature dropped to freezing, and a chilly Spiritual Energy filled the area, becoming uncomfortable for Li Shiming.

He summoned the copper corpse which then stood in the Ghost Domain, the strands of chilling Spiritual Energy being absorbed into its body.

Just the environment provided by the Ghost Domain itself could replace a great deal of materials needed for the copper corpse’s enhancement.

Considering the main material of the Netherworld Ghost Realm Array was the third-grade spiritual item Netherworld Crystal, it wasn’t surprising that it could replace the enhancement materials for the copper corpse.

Indeed, a third-grade Netherworld Ghost Realm Array was not meant to be used by Qi Refining cultivators, and even Foundation Establishment Cultivators, except for Direct Disciples of elders, weren’t qualified to use it.

If it hadn’t been for that elder of the Xuanming Sect whose Corpse Refining had reached a certain level, making the Netherworld Ghost Realm Array unable to assist that refined corpse any further, Ren Fei’er wouldn’t have been able to get it.
