Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

After Wang Xianzhi left, he unexpectedly took the initiative to publicize the gambling agreement, causing quite a stir.

However, that’s a story for another time.

Once Wang Xianzhi departed, Chen Daoqing excitedly chatted about Du Feng and specifically mentioned Du Feng’s helpless look upon learning about Wen Jiu’s achievements and cultivation level.

”Although I can’t surpass him now, my big brother can easily crush him. What difference does it make if he goes to the Langhuan Blessed Land?”

”Once my cultivation surpasses his, let’s see what he’s so smug about.” Chen Daoqing spoke of Du Feng with a look of disdain.

Wen Jiu couldn’t help but chuckle. For this subordinate who called him big brother, he wasn’t stingy and took out a bottle of Tier One Middle-Grade Body Nourishing Elixir Pills and handed it over.

As for why he didn’t give elixirs that directly enhance cultivation, it’s because Wen Jiu hoped Chen Daoqing could go further.

Helping growth prematurely is destined to not go far.

”Big brother, I can’t accept this, it’s too precious.” Chen Daoqing hurriedly refused.

Wen Jiu didn’t give him a chance to refuse, bluntly saying, ”Repay me tenfold after you step into the Late Stage of Qi Cultivation.”

”Thank you...big brother.” Chen Daoqing wasn’t foolish. He knew that Wen Jiu was intentionally saying that.

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Wen Jiu saw Chen Daoqing off.

In the following days, Feng Jue would send daily messages that the Soul-devouring Lifeless Array was intact. Meanwhile, Feng Jue had led his people to set up the perimeter Array Flags within the Celestial Extinction Yin Vein.

This was because the demons of the Celestial Extinction Yin Vein had clashed with the demon beasts that swarmed in from the Divine Fall Mountain Range.

Disciples of Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks hunted demons in the Yin Vein in groups for Spirit Stones, making the chaos in the Yin Vein worse. Foundation Establishment Cultivators of Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks were entangled with Tier Two Demons, unable to spare much attention elsewhere.

The increase in Tier Two Demons in this Celestial Extinction Yin Vein incidentally helped them avoid a premature confrontation with the Foundation Establishment Cultivators of the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks. Even if such a confrontation happened, there wouldn’t be a deadly battle, yet it would still be troublesome.

This trouble should naturally be avoided if possible.

Wen Jiu did not respond, as he wouldn’t be addressing matters from Feng Jue’s side until emerging from the Celestial Extinction Ruins.

Thus, more than ten days passed.

The Soul-devouring Lifeless Array was finally completed.

The number of demons in the Celestial Extinction Yin Vein had been reduced by fifty percent, and half of the Tier Two Demons had been killed or injured. When Feng Jue sent another message, Wen Jiu could clearly feel his joy and impending murderous intent.

On that morning, Eastern Celestial City finally set out, gathering everyone who possessed a Celestial Extremity Black Sword to proceed with the other two sects to the Celestial Extinction Yin Vein, awaiting the opening of the Celestial Extinction Ruins.

Wen Jiu intended to continue using his own identity while having Han Li’s identity disguised by the Three Evil Flying Corpses.

Soon.

Thirteen people, including Wen Jiu, from Deadman Peak arrived at the entrance of the Celestial Extinction Yin Vein, waiting for the cultivators from the Two Sects and Six Peaks to arrive.

However, instead of other forces’ cultivators, Fang Xiaolin arrived personally to escort them outside.

The purpose of Fang Xiaolin’s actions was obvious.

Although he said nothing, his cold eyes warned everyone. When over a hundred cultivators from the Two Sects and Six Peaks had gathered, he casually slayed a sudden Peak of First-stage Demon Beast as a demonstration.

”Just Tier One, yet dares not to retreat upon my sight!” In ten breaths, Fang Xiaolin sliced the demon beast into eight pieces with his blade-shaped Magical Artifact, truly shocking the disciples from the Two Sects and Six Peaks and earning their respect.

After slaying the demon, Fang Xiaolin’s gaze swept over everyone again, ”Now that everyone is here, follow me into the Celestial Extinction Yin Vein.”

Upon finishing his sentence.

Fang Xiaolin was the first to rush into the undercurrent.

The cultivators from the Two Sects and Six Peaks quickly followed on their Flying Ships.

Wen Jiu watched the forest become drenched in blood from numerous demon beasts, feeling disdain for this show of force.

It was wasteful.

At this moment, Wen Jiu’s gaze fell upon Ye Chen, Eastern Celestial City, and Bai Jianxin.

Their expressions were somewhat grim.

Yet they didn’t reveal too much.

Because they too recognized Fang Xiaolin’s demonstration, which served as a warning to them.

Withdrawing his gaze, Wen Jiu calmly followed Shan Yue Ru and Senior Sister Yanyue back to the ship’s cabin.

The others exchanged glances and all returned to their cabins too.

Inside Eastern Celestial City’s cabin, the group immediately gathered, and after a brief, solemn Divine Sense Communication, they approached the room where the Three Evil Flying Corpses resided, respectfully knocking on the wooden door.

”Fellow Daoist Han.”

Eastern Celestial City spoke.

Wen Jiu didn’t let the Three Evil Flying Corpses open the door but communicated through the door, ”If you’ve come concerning Foundation Establishment matters, there’s no need to say more. I cannot help you; it all depends on your luck.”

He could sense Fang Xiaolin’s Divine Sense was still on the Flying Ship, and while unable to eavesdrop on cultivators’ Divine Sense Communication, Fang Xiaolin could see what transpired on the Flying Ship and observe Eastern Celestial City’s expressions.

”This...”

The three from Eastern Celestial City exchanged glances.

Frustration deepened in their eyes.

”I have done enough for you folks from Deadman Peak; a person must learn to be content.” The Three Evil Flying Corpses conveyed once more.

Eastern Celestial City’s expressions hardened, looking rather unpleasant.

Neither Eastern Celestial City nor Ye Chen had expected Han Li to respond in such a manner.

However, recalling how easily Fang Xiaolin had just decapitated a Peak of First-stage Demon Beast, they dared not argue further, having no choice but to retreat.

Simultaneously, Fang Xiaolin, who sensed this scene with his Divine Sense, smiled with satisfaction, ”This Han Li is indeed a wise man.”

He didn’t care about the small schemes of Eastern Celestial City.

Because as long as the Foundation Breaking Method existed, no matter how much Eastern Celestial City stirs up trouble, they couldn’t make much of a splash.

On the contrary.

The more scheming Eastern Celestial City and the others were, the easier they were to control, as the scheming ones understood fear and weighed their options.

Regarding their intentions, to be frank, he didn’t care. Even if they harbored the intent to kill him, it wouldn’t matter, as long as Eastern Celestial City and the others could bring back the goods for him.

As for Han Li, he’s even less concerned about him.

Han Li came from the Three Life Gates and would certainly know about the Foundation Breaking Method’s existence. Although he hadn’t used it on him, Han Li could indeed successfully establish his Foundation in the Celestial Extinction Ruins. However, a backup plan had already been prepared in the Celestial Extinction Yin Vein.

If Han Li did manage to establish his Foundation.

That would indeed be a great success.

Killing a Foundation Establishment Cultivator from the Three Life Gates would be a substantial merit, much better than securing a Foundation Establishment Opportunity.

After watching for another one or two hours, Fang Xiaolin retracted his Divine Sense with satisfaction.

Nevertheless, shortly after Fang Xiaolin withdrew his Divine Sense, Wen Jiu instructed the Three Evil Flying Corpses to take out an Array Order. A Blood Corpse Escape quickly sent it into Eastern Celestial City’s room, left it there, and swiftly exited.

”Distribute these without any omissions. After emerging from the Celestial Extinction Ruins, it is your only chance of survival.”

After the communication, the Three Evil Flying Corpses slipped away.

Eastern Celestial City, initially with a troubled expression, abruptly froze, his mouth curling into a slight smile.

But the smile flickered.

At this point, he clearly understood why Han Li communicated in such a way earlier.

It must have been due to Fang Xiaolin watching.

Thus Han Li intentionally communicated like that.

”Array Order...”

After scrutinizing the item Han Li left, Eastern Celestial City dared not delay since Han Li mentioned life and death.

Upon leaving the room, Eastern Celestial City distributed the Array Orders accordingly, casting the Silencing Spell on each recipient.

Wen Jiu wasn’t spared either.

Wen Jiu didn’t care about this.

Since he had originally intended to reveal the Array Order matter, and Han Li’s alias would also be discarded within the Celestial Extinction Ruins.

Once all Array Orders were distributed, Eastern Celestial City immediately communicated to the Three Evil Flying Corpses, ”Fellow Daoist Han, all have been distributed.”

”Maintain your worried look.”

The Three Evil Flying Corpses reminded through communication.

Eastern Celestial City nodded, the worried look resurfacing.

Indeed, a veteran cultivator.

The act was quite convincing.

Not much of a worried expression, but very believable.

If Fang Xiaolin swept over them with his Divine Sense again, he wouldn’t notice anything amiss.

...

Two days passed in a flash.

Following some struggles, the Two Sects and Six Peaks finally arrived at the outskirts of the Celestial Extinction Yin Vein, but were not allowed to enter.

They could only wait in the outskirts for the opening of the Celestial Extinction Ruins.

Wen Jiu wasn’t worried, quietly cultivating in his cabin, occasionally listening to intelligence from Feng Jue.

There wasn’t good news, but no bad news either. However, the plan to enter the Celestial Extinction Ruins ahead of schedule had been shelved. The Blood Eater Daoist was now hiding outside the Yin Vein, also waiting for the ruins to open.

In the blink of an eye, another half-month passed.

The opening of the Celestial Extinction Ruins was imminent!

[A bit late.

Sorry.

Two chapters finished.

See you tomorrow!]
