Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

Chapter 488: Chapter 250: Return to the Little Demon Realm, Demon Corpse Undergoing Special Mutation

Upon these words, Wen Jiu at Lengxi Mountain couldn’t help but chuckle at Pei Wuxing’s earnest appearance.

Not to mention the difficulty of Pei Wuxing converting a Spirit Body into a Corpse Body, even if Pei Wuxing had such a method, only a Golden Core Cultivator who had become utterly hopeless about their Dao path would do something like this.

Because converting a Spirit Body into a Corpse Body indeed makes the physical body more powerful. As long as the crafted corpse body is strong enough, it can even change one’s foundation, ignoring the deficiencies of a Low-Rank Golden Core, and achieve the level of a Mid-stage Golden Core Body Cultivator or even a Late-stage Body Cultivator.

However, the cost is too great, and the probability of failure is extremely high. Once it fails, one would become neither corpse nor human, a hybrid. Only those old cultivators with no chance of further progress in this life dare to attempt this. Pei Wuxing has only formed his Golden Core for two or three hundred years, and he’s already reached this stage?

Here are thousands upon thousands of Demon Cultivator Remains. If the Demon Cultivators of the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect knew about this, wouldn’t there be an uproar? Pei Wuxing has been outside, how could he not know this? Yet he still dares to speak of it.

Either take him for a fool or he truly has no fear. If Pei Wuxing truly had no fear, he wouldn’t offer him seventy percent of the profits. One doesn’t let others sleep peacefully by their bedside, much less when it comes to profit.

Therefore, there’s certainly something unusual here. However, since he knows about Corpse Cultivators and knows Pei Wuxing comes from beyond the Divine Fall Mountain Range, yet still dares to say such things, he must have another reason.

But whatever the reason, Wen Jiu currently doesn’t want to engage. Any Golden Core Cultivator who has reached this stage is not simple. Snatching food from the mouth of a tiger can be done by overpowering, but cooperation requires careful consideration.

”Fellow Daoist Pei’s gift upon meeting is truly generous, offering up most of the wealth of an Immortal City’s Pseudo-Dan right from the start. As for other cooperation, there will be plenty of time in the future.” Wen Jiu controlled the East Spring Undying Bone to collect the three items into a pouch. After careful inspection, confirming there were no issues, he then retrieved his Divine Sense and changed the subject, ”If Fellow Daoist has the time, why not explain now how to double the profits at the Heaven-Reaching Entrance?”

”Very well.”

Pei Wuxing didn’t insist on continuing this topic. He also knew that this cooperation could not be accomplished in one stroke.

Of course, it was also because he didn’t dare to continue further; the Corpse Cultivators of the Hundred Floating Domains and Lifeless Abyss are even more sinister and ruthless than those of the Divine Fall Mountain Range. This time he’s here to take advantage, and if he says something displeasing, this meeting gift might be given in vain. Turning hostile is the expertise of Heterodox Evil Cultivators.

Pei Wuxing had no other choice but to say, without sending Daoist Wei and the others away, ”When the Lu Family comes next time, I will personally negotiate with them to change the trips from once every three months to once every month, at least tripling the income.”

”Are you sure it can work? Can the Lu Family get that many West Mountain Orders?” Wen Jiu countered, not believing that the Lu Family’s previous schedule was due to lack of time, nor that they had too many Spirit Stones lying around.

Pei Wuxing smiled faintly, ”Once on board, whether there are West Mountain Orders or if we can buy them from the Lu Family... what does it have to do with us? One and a half million Low-grade Spirit Stones have always just been for the passage to the Heaven-Reaching River entrance.”

”How about making it two or three trips a month then? Thin profit, fast turnover?” Wen Jiu felt his thinking was still not Heterodox enough, constrained by conventional ideas. If not them, who else to fleece than those privileged errants who flee at the first sign of trouble?

Pei Wuxing’s expression became stern as he shook his head awkwardly, ”I’m afraid that’s too much. It’s easy for the Celestial River Guard in the West Mountain Floating Domain to notice if we do more. Once they discern something, the Lu Family might be fine, but we’d be in deep trouble. Not to mention we’d have to return all the Spirit Stones profited, we might even lose our lives.”

”True.”

Wen Jiu nodded.

This war will last for a dozen or twenty years, and in business, slow and steady wins the race.

After discussing for a few more moments, Wen Jiu didn’t bother to continue speaking with Pei Wuxing much further, finding a random excuse of weariness to send him out. Pei Wuxing also dared not stay longer, leaving hastily with Daoist Wei and the others.

However, upon returning to the City Lord’s Mansion, Pei Wuxing immediately transmitted to the three, ”Remember, this person’s strength far surpasses mine; profit is paramount. Having achieved Heterodox Golden Core with the West Mountain Floating Domain and Lifeless Abyss, he is bound to be sinister and ruthless, so be sure to handle cautiously, without giving him any excuse to take advantage of us.”

Daoist Wei and the others exchanged glances, their minds remarkably in agreement despite their usual discord.

Simultaneously, Pei Wuxing instructed Lin Suqiu, ”Junior Sister, this person probably has a distinguished background, showing no regard for the Qi Guang Sect, so refrain from mentioning Qi Guang Sect in the future, lest you provoke his displeasure and lead us to bleed out again.”

Lin Suqiu nodded, not daring to retort, then quickly asked, ”Senior Brother, what attitude should we adopt towards him? Draw him in, or...?”

”Such a person cannot be drawn in; attempting to do so will bring disaster onto oneself. Just handle normally and cautiously, satisfying any of his demands if they aren’t too excessive.” Pei Wuxing pondered a bit before advising again.

Pei Wuxing’s words made the faces of Daoist Wei and the others look extremely grim as they exchanged helpless glances.

Seeing this, Pei Wuxing had no choice but to add, ”However, his arrival is not entirely a bad thing. Our Wind and Cloud Immortal City could use another Golden Core Zhenren to deter the Three Life Gates and Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks. There are disadvantages as well as advantages.

Moreover, should anything arise, as long as we offer the right price, this person will surely lend a hand. It’s unfortunate that he wasn’t here when I was undergoing my Realm Breakthrough; otherwise, I wouldn’t have been harassed by the Golden Cores of the Three Life Gates, leading to failure in my breakthrough.”
