Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

”Senior Brother, why are you staring at me again?”

Ye Chen was left perplexed once more by the way Eastern Celestial City was looking at him.

Eastern Celestial City quickly changed the topic, ”Now that I’ve established my Foundation, the Foundation Establishment Items and Foundation Establishment Opportunities coveted by Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks are beyond our reach, but those targeted by Blood Eater Daoist might be something we must acquire!”

Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks cutting off their path to foundation establishment was a blockade, an enemy to the death, but Deadman Peak was too insignificant to stand against Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks. Even with rage in their hearts, they could only bury it.

Fang Xiaolin, whether willing or not, needed to offer a share of the Foundation Establishment Opportunities, and Ye Chen and his companions also needed these opportunities to seek foundation. Otherwise, once the Celestial Extinction Ruins closed, it would be hard to seek foundation again.

Conversely, looking at Feng Jue, it made sense.

Moon Extreme Sect had foundation establishment, yet after Feng Jue, no second one emerged. Could it be because they didn’t want to?

So when the people from Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks couldn’t be moved, the only choice left was Blood Eater Daoist and their group.

...

Meanwhile.

Wen Jiu was intently gazing at the crescent moon above, watching it grow fuller while the brilliant sunlight dimmed.

The Celestial Extinction Ruins also began to darken at that moment, not gradually from east to west, but as if the entire world was sinking into darkness. Just as the sunlight completely vanished, the crescent moon became full, and its radiant light bathed the land.

It was at this instant that Wen Jiu felt a unique aura slowly descending from the full moon.

At this moment.

The Foundation Establishment Body Cultivation Demon Corpse exhibited unprecedented greed, like a starving beggar seeing a meat bun.

It was True Demonic Qi.

However, it was not of a dark hue, but silver-white.

It appeared pure and sacred; if one claimed it was true demonic aura, probably nine out of ten people wouldn’t believe it.

But Wen Jiu could distinctly feel the demonic qi within the Foundation Establishment Body Cultivation Demon Corpse resonating with it.

”Where is the East Spring River?”

Yet, Wen Jiu couldn’t stay to observe the peculiarity of the silver demonic qi and quickly spread his Divine Sense to search for the East Spring River.

East Spring River was formless.

According to the soul memories of Yin Yang Dust and others, each appearance of the East Spring River differed for each cultivator who encountered it. Some saw it suddenly flow through woods, surging abundantly.

Others fell into it suddenly, yet its surface was as calm as a dead pool.

Some saw it as boundless as the sea, with its waves so mighty that even Foundation Establishment Cultivators were swallowed.

Abruptly.

Wen Jiu suddenly heard the tumultuous noise of rushing river water beneath his feet, followed by a special silver-white aura rising and merging with the brilliant moonlight, making the full moon even brighter.

”Below!”

Without much thought, Wen Jiu performed a Blood Corpse Escape, taking Three Thousand Blood Inks and the Foundation Establishment Body Cultivation Demon Corpse across the ground.

Just three to five zhang downward, everything became clear, and before his eyes was a silver-white river, like moonlight, surging forward ceaselessly. Even Divine Sense covering a hundred li couldn’t detect its source, end, or the river’s contents.

Evidently.

This was the East Spring River!

”With my cultivation, I can’t sense too much from it, but there is no trace of Yin Evil Qi, and the entire East Spring River seems purer and more sacred than actual moonlight.

Visually, the East Spring River appears to be a current of moonlight gathered into a flowing river.”

After watching for a long time, Wen Jiu was inevitably taken aback.

But how could such a pure object lacking any Yin Evil Qi nurture something as unholy as an Undying Bone from a Flying Corpse? Besides using the East Spring River, there’s another way to cultivate it.

According to the Yinzhou Heterodox Record.

That cultivation method is excessively cruel. Even though Wen Jiu is familiar with the Heterodox Dao and adept in killing, he still couldn’t accept it.

It involves a pit of ten thousand cultivators, eternally burying the Flying Corpse, daily inflicting a hundred blood and bodies, accumulating curses to nourish the corpse in the Land of Death, and after thirty years, an Undying Bone naturally forms. In those thirty years, countless lives would be taken.

The part that Wen Jiu found hardest to accept was that each hundred bodies must bear a blood relation daily to maximize resentment, allowing it to transform into Yin, sinking into the corpse land, thus forging the Undying Bone.

But the East Spring River requires none of these complexities; drinking it can nurture an Undying Bone.

”What exactly is the East Spring River in this world?”

With curiosity, he continued to observe for half an hour. As the Three Evil Flying Corpses returned, Wen Jiu immediately commanded them to enter the surging East Spring River. Just as he expected, the moment they entered the water, they were swept away.

Strong as the Three Evil Flying Corpses were, they couldn’t even stand firm, let alone cultivate there, and were instantly carried off a thousand zhang away. Fortunately, the Blood Corpse Escape caught them; otherwise, they might have been trapped in the East Spring River.

However, Wen Jiu’s purpose wasn’t to test the river’s turbulence but to glimpse beneath the East Spring River.

Below the river water.

What lies beneath?

However.

A glance showed it was equally boundless and unfathomable.

”This cultivation world is indeed wondrous, with such anomalies beyond common sense existing.”

Indeed.

Exploring the world is a pleasure.

”If we can’t cultivate in the river, we can only do so on the banks,” he murmured, his gaze instinctively falling on the corpses of the Three Evil Flying Corpses.

Because the East Spring River water clinging to them was burrowing into their corpses like Gu Insects, at a visible speed. Every drop of East Spring River water seemed alive, making Wen Jiu’s skin crawl.
