Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

Chapter 302: Chapter 167: Foundation Establishment Battle Begins

No wonder there are rumors among the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks and Three Life Gates that there is a Golden Core opportunity in Celestial Extinction Mountain, yet none of the Golden Core cultivators come, not even a single late-stage or perfection cultivator shows up.

It seems it’s not just because they can’t spare the time, they clearly have doubts about the Celestial Extinction Ruins.

”Master, Great Elder, Senior Sister Yanyue...” Wen Jiu returned to the exit with his true appearance and quickly raised his hand in salute.

From now on, there will be no more Han Li on Deadman Peak.

Everyone was curious to see Wen Jiu return, as he had been acting alone all this time with no news. So, did he find the legendary East Spring River?

Ye Chen quickly asked, ”Any gains?”

”None...”

Wen Jiu shook his head, pretending to be disappointed, because speaking truthfully would bring no benefit, and might even cause trouble. The Undying Bone is no trivial matter, and Wen Jiu had no intention of revealing it to his master, Ye Chen.

Ye Chen glanced Wen Jiu up and down, as if he saw something, but said nothing more, ”As long as you’re alright. Prepare yourself. When the Celestial Extinction Ruins close, the repulsive force will send us out.”

”Yes, Master.”

Wen Jiu replied and then stood beside Yanyue and Shan Yue Ru.

His master did not press him further, clearly having guessed something, or perhaps it was just not the right time to say more. Whatever the reason, Wen Jiu would always stick to the same story.

”Junior Brother Wen, any other gains?” Shan Yue Ru asked softly.

Wen Jiu still shook his head, ”None.”

”Then wasn’t this trip a waste for you?” Shan Yue Ru said helplessly, but then thinking of all the cultivators on Celestial Extinction Mountain and those who had died, ”Forget it, whether there’s an opportunity or not seems unimportant; as long as you’re unharmed.”

”I think so too.” Wen Jiu replied with a smile.

Yanyue, watching from the side, seemed a bit frustrated, while Shan Yue Ru’s mouth twitched.

”You...” Yanyue shook her head helplessly.

Her junior brother had his merits.

He knew how to be discreet.

He was diligent in his cultivation.

But he didn’t behave like a normal cultivator.

Cultivators seize the fortunes of heaven and earth and must fight for opportunities. How can one just see through life like an old sage?

Going to the once-in-a-century Celestial Extinction Ruins and gaining nothing, only he would agree with a smile that being unharmed is enough. It’s a shame he didn’t venture up Celestial Extinction Mountain.

This trip was extremely perilous, but such opportunities are sought amidst danger. If Wen Jiu had ventured into the halls, with his talents, he might have passed the five halls to obtain the Golden Core method. After all, the tests within Celestial Extinction Mountain Mansion do not depend solely on cultivation levels.

”Stand behind us and be ready to go at any time.”

Yanyue reminded, taking two steps closer to Wen Jiu, shielding him from more of the repulsive force.

”Thank you, Senior Sister.”

Wen Jiu did not hesitate and stepped to hide behind her.

As time passed, the repulsive force of the Celestial Extinction Ruins grew increasingly strong, seemingly ready to send them out at any moment, but the Eastern Celestial City still showed no intention of leaving, always resisting the repulsive force alongside everyone else.

This did not surprise Wen Jiu, as the disciples of Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks had already left and would inevitably inform Fang Xiaolin and the others about the Golden Core opportunities. To them, even though the Golden Core technique cannot ensure one enters the Golden Core Realm, it is still a rare Golden Core opportunity.

The Foundation Establishment battle outside the Celestial Extinction Ruins is bound to break out at any moment because once Fang Xiaolin makes a move, Feng Jue and the others will also respond. The hidden hands prepared by both sides have probably already been revealed.

The Eastern Celestial City may have considered this point, hence remembering the previous reminder, and deciding to leave last. After all, getting involved in the Foundation Establishment battle a bit later means a little less danger for everyone on Deadman Peak.

...

Within the Celestial Extinction Yin Vein.

Upon hearing from a disciple that the Eastern Celestial City held the Golden Core method but did not stay to cultivate in Celestial Extinction Mountain, Fang Xiaolin immediately took out six Soul Puppets with human forms but no flesh.

Each Soul Puppet only had the strength of the early stage of Foundation Establishment, but when all six were released together, the aura they gathered faintly suppressed the two middle-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators Ye and Men, directly pressuring Shankui.

At the same time, Fang Xiaolin quickly took out an Array Manipulation Disc, activating the grand array previously set up, releasing twelve giant pillars of Spiritual Qi that shot straight into the Celestial Extinction Yin Vein.

With the action of the twelve Spiritual Qi pillars, the prohibition of the Celestial Extinction Yin Vein, which had been closed, suddenly opened.

As such, even those with Escape Talismans couldn’t leave.

Similarly.

People from outside cannot get in.

After initiating the array, Fang Xiaolin, full of killing intent, said, ”Two fellow Daoists, Senior Brother Ye, Senior Brother Ming, this array is called the Twelve Spirit Control Array, a Tier Two High-Grade Spirit Array, not only controlling the prohibition of the Celestial Extinction Yin Vein but also suppressing cultivators within the array by ten percent, even twenty percent in strength.

If that traitor Feng Jue or those from Three Life Gates dare to show up, with the aid of this array, we will ensure they don’t return.”

Fang Xiaolin spoke solemnly, spreading his Divine Sense, with the six Soul Puppets at his side ready for battle.

Seeing this, the two from Ye’s faction were secretly amazed. They had only known that Fang Xiaolin and the others had set up a Tier Two High-Grade Spirit Array within the Celestial Extinction Yin Vein, but did not know it was the Twelve Spirit Control Array.

This array is the unique creation of the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks, created by a Golden Core Zhenren. Even though it’s a high-grade array, in a place like the Celestial Extinction Yin Vein, it’s no less than a Tier Two Top-Grade Grand Array because it can manipulate the prohibition of the Celestial Extinction Yin Vein.

The prohibition of the Celestial Extinction Yin Vein can block and trap Golden Core cultivators.

”Master Yan actually gave you this array.” Ye Men expressed with emotion, the fear in his heart towards Shankui instantly lessening by three parts.
