Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

Chapter 351: Chapter 188: Reward for Feng Jue, Honored Guest Elder of Wind and Cloud Immortal City, Soars

The people of Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks don’t dare to come knocking, but if they send heterodox cultivators to challenge them reasonably.

It would also be a troublesome matter.

”Fellow Daoist Feng, don’t worry. I have the Honored Guest Token from Wind and Cloud Immortal City, and we’ve been removed from the Left Sect Hundred Cultivators’ Record.” Wen Jiu displayed the Honored Guest Token, causing Feng Jue’s solemn expression to ease slightly.

However, this also shocked Feng Jue internally. After all, he had handed over the method to extract corpse spores from corpse mushrooms to Wind and Cloud Immortal City, and was even willing to plant corpse mushrooms for them, yet he did not receive an Honored Guest Token.

From this, it seems.

Daoist Han Li must have done something significant.

Feng Jue still did not ask further. He knew what to ask and what not to ask. ”In this way, we only need to guard against those heterodox evil cultivators. If late-stage Foundation Establishment heterodox evil cultivators want to challenge us, the Little Demon Realm’s rules will stop them. If mid-stage cultivators challenge us, the two of us together need not fear anyone.”

Feng Jue’s expression relaxed significantly.

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Wen Jiu did not linger further and began refining the Five Yin Gathering Evil Pearl after seeing Feng Jue off.

After refining the Five Yin Gathering Evil Pearl, Wen Jiu sent the fist-sized pearl into the body of the East Spring Undying Bone, then used the Yin Technique to drive it. The dark grey Yin Five Elements Yin Qi within the magical artifact began to circulate.

Under the influence of the Yin Five Elements Yin Qi, the Five Yin Gathering Evil Pearl began to absorb the Yin Evil Qi from the surrounding area like a giant vortex. After swallowing a large amount of Yin Evil Qi into its body, the Yin Five Elements Yin Qi refined it and finally delivered it to the East Spring Undying Bone, doubling the speed at which it absorbed the Yin Evil Qi.

This significant improvement made Wen Jiu inevitably delighted, as he now urgently needed to elevate the realm of the East Spring Undying Bone.

After using the Five Yin Gathering Evil Pearl for corpse nurturing for one day, the overall effect was excellent, effectively doubling the daily experience gained. Over a day, the East Spring Undying Bone could gain twenty-four points of corpse nurturing experience, directly halving the time needed to reach the Tier Two Upper Realm.

”If I can buy Blood Corpse Mushrooms at the Hidden Pavilion, the East Spring Undying Bone’s advancement will be even faster.”

Wen Jiu decided to check it out tomorrow.

Just in case.

However, before Wen Jiu could visit the Hidden Pavilion, Eastern Celestial City and Heihe simultaneously sent new information.

The information from Heihe was about the Three Wonders Blood Corpse Sect.

According to Heihe, ever since Shen Tu died, the Three Wonders Blood Corpse Sect has been silent, not daring to make a sound, and the Three Life Gates haven’t stirred at all. No one has questioned Wind and Cloud Immortal City about the death of the Yin Yang Cultivator, and similarly, the Lord of Wind and Cloud Immortal City, Pei Wuxing, has also transmitted messages reminding his disciples to forget about Li Yue.

This did not surprise Wen Jiu, for the death of two mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators was insignificant to the lofty Golden Core cultivators.

The news from Eastern Celestial City was about Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks. As expected from the past few days, the bounty on Feng Jue has increased. This time, the reward is very generous, enough to tempt late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators.

The original rewards remain unchanged, and an additional Tier Two Top-Grade Extreme Yin Pill has been added, which is a secret treasure pill passed down within the heterodox lineage of Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks, with two effects. First, it can improve the quality of the Dao Foundation to some extent, increasing the chances of advancing to late-stage or perfection in Foundation Establishment; second, it can greatly dispel the Yin Qi and evil energy within the body, extending one’s lifespan.

The former is incredibly important not only for late-stage Foundation Establishment but also for mid-stage heterodox cultivators because nearly seventy percent of Foundation Establishment cultivators might stagnate at the mid or late stage for a lifetime.

This is related to the spirit root and quality of the Dao Foundation. The former is innate, and the latter is challenging to modify postnatally. Treasures like the Extreme Yin Pill, Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks would definitely not let outsiders use.

Similarly, if other major factions possess such treasures to improve the Dao Foundation, they would undoubtedly keep it hidden.

As for the latter, it is even more critical for heterodox evil cultivators,

since besides Wen Jiu himself, which heterodox evil cultivator has not been eroded by Yin Evil Qi? Ninety-nine percent of heterodox cultivators are hindered mid-path and never break through to Foundation Establishment. Those who enter Foundation Establishment either belong to great sects, able to cleanse their bodies with abundant resources, while loose or small sect cultivators often resort to extreme methods.

But even using extreme methods, the potential after entering Foundation Establishment remains limited, likely confining them to the early or mid-stage for a lifetime.

When Feng Jue learned of this, he was astounded, ”Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks truly gives no way to survive.”

Fortunately, Han Li’s Honored Guest Token was there, at least external threats could be ignored, only needing to focus on the heterodox evil cultivators of the Little Demon Realm. As long as a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator didn’t come recklessly, he feared none.

”If that’s the case, then let one who comes be killed!” A fierce killing intent gradually emerged in Feng Jue’s eyes.

Those blocking my path,

must die.

Even in death, he feared not.

”Boy, stay calm. What you need to do now is to properly cultivate Blood Corpse Mushrooms, for they are the key to reaching late-stage Foundation Establishment.” A voice in his mind reminded again, ”You should learn from Han Li, prioritize survival, stably strive forward planting Blood Corpse Mushrooms, before long the schemes behind the Three Wonders Blood Corpse Sect and its supporting demon cultivators will fall through, perhaps even assisting you in forming a Heterodox Golden Core.”

Feng Jue nodded, but his eyes retained their killing intent.

The voice in his mind seemed to realize its persuasion was futile, resignedly sighed, ”Your temper truly mirrors mine in my past life, but you have better luck, with not only my assistance but also finding a companion of mysterious origins like Han Li.

Without Han Li, you’d have no choice but to flee elsewhere. However, no matter where you go, you’d still be under someone’s control.”

Feng Jue replied, ”Rest assured, senior, I am not afraid, but it doesn’t mean I’m foolish. I’m willing to spend time cultivating Blood Corpse Mushrooms, daring to snatch from the jaws of the Three Wonders Blood Corpse Sect and those behind it, partly because of Han Li. Han Li needs Blood Corpse Mushrooms for corpse nurturing; from now on, I, Feng Mou, will cultivate more Blood Corpse Mushrooms.”

”You’re quite the clever boy.” The voice in his mind smiled with gratification before falling silent.

Feng Jue also gradually retracted his killing intent, continuing to cultivate the Gathering Yin Poison Technique while his divine sense extended outside his cave to monitor the dozen late-stage Qi Cultivation servants cultivating the spirit field for planting Blood Corpse Mushrooms, feeling quite satisfied with their efficiency.

In half a month, under senior’s guidance, he would master the Gathering Yin Poison Technique to a minor level, allowing him to start planting Blood Corpse Mushrooms in the spirit field.

With the Gathering Yin Poison Technique in hand and a few more methods, cultivating Tier One Top-Grade Blood Corpse Mushrooms in a short time was achievable.

As for Tier Two Blood Corpse Mushrooms, once he cultivated to the toxic body transmitted by his senior and advanced the Gathering Yin Poison Technique to mastery, it would no longer be a problem.

Even though this might shorten his lifespan somewhat, what harm was it if he could achieve his goals and lose twenty or thirty years of life?

He never sought eternal life!

...

Wen Jiu was unaware of Feng Jue’s thoughts, but even knowing Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks had placed such a hefty bounty on Feng Jue, Wen Jiu had no intention of distancing himself from Feng Jue. It wasn’t due to noble emotions but because he needed someone to take the blows in front.

Feng Jue, being blessed with opportunities, was quite suitable.

With him taking the lead, even if the high-levels of Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks suspected him of being an External Foundation Establishment Corpse Cultivator, they wouldn’t immediately place a bounty on him, especially since he was now an Honored Guest Elder of Wind and Cloud Immortal City.

Are you intending to act against the Honored Guest Elder of Wind and Cloud Immortal City?

Do you want Wind and Cloud Immortal City to retaliate when the Three Life Gates make their move?

The next morning, Heihe unexpectedly came in person, inviting him to a trip to the Hidden Pavilion in the Little Demon Realm. Of course, visiting the Hidden Pavilion was not the main objective, and Heihe did not hide the true purpose, revealing it directly.

The purpose was to meet Daoist Wei.

A Foundation Establishment Perfection Cultivator.

The Vice City Lord of Wind and Cloud Immortal City.

The top disciple under the Lord of Wind and Cloud Immortal City.

Under these three identities, it was hard to find a few people in the Divine Fall Mountain Range with higher status or power than him.

Yet Daoist Wei had come to Little Demon Realm from Wind and Cloud Immortal City, and wanted to meet him personally, which both surprised and made Wen Jiu uneasy. This was a being only one step away from a Heterodox Golden Core.

To be safe, Wen Jiu brought the Three Corpses, but concealed them within the Corpse Nurturing Coffin in his storage bag, with all corpse aura and traces completely masked.
