Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

Chapter 506: Chapter 259: The Hidden Demon Sect Investigates, Reunion with Lu Chan

Like Master Jue Ying, the three cultivated the Formless Demon Body, hiding themselves completely without a trace among the dancing shadows of the trees. Even passing under the feet of monsters, they would leave no sign, almost as if they were invisible.

When the Divine Sense of an average Golden Core Zhenren swept through, it was hard to notice anything amiss. This didn’t surprise Wen Jiu, because given the situation in the West Mountain Floating Domain, the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect was capable of hiding a dark altar surpassing the typical Golden Core influence in the Celestial Yin Mountain Range, their concealment techniques must be extraordinarily impressive.

”The Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect truly has its methods. East Spring Undying Bone killed Jue Ying in just a moment, yet not a trace of any aura or mark remained, but the Demon Cultivators from the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect still found the place where Jue Ying perished.”

Wen Jiu quietly sensed the traces of the three through the Divine Sense of East Spring Undying Bone. Only after ensuring the absolute safety around them did the three reveal their forms, transforming into three black-robed, masked cultivators who sought out the site of Master Jue Ying’s death.

One of them spoke with great certainty.

”It’s right here.”

The other two nodded and took out a Yin Talisman each from their storage pouches, including a rather special one full of unknown black secret text. However, Wen Jiu immediately recognized the secret text on the Yin Talisman.

It was the True Spirit Divine Technique, accompanied by the black secret text on the Spirit Root within him. Even within Master Jue Ying’s memory, there was no information about this secret text. The same was the case for the Fake Pill Demon Cultivator; they only knew it originated from the mysterious Sect Leader of the Blood Demon Sect.

”What is this?”

Wen Jiu suppressed the thought of dealing with the three and watched their actions quietly while also searching through the memories of Master Jue Ying for information about this talisman. After ten breaths, Wen Jiu found the information about the Yin Talisman.

Blood Demon Retrospection Yin Talisman.

Tier Three Lower Grade.

Extremely special, even though it was only Tier Three Lower Grade, its value was comparable to a Tier Three Middle Grade Yin Talisman.

A Tier Three Lower Grade item would be around ten million Spirit Stones.

A Tier Three Middle Grade item would be worth five to ten times that, and it’s not something easily available on the market.

In fact, it’s priceless and unavailable.

Only through trading among cultivators, because there would hardly be anyone who would exchange it for Spirit Stones.

Selling is easy.

But buying again would be very difficult.

And this trio took out two at once, indicating their value.

One could cover the Core Formation cost of two corpses of Three Thousand Blood Inks and Blood Demon Undying Bone, yet Wen Jiu remained unmoved. This is because the Blood Demon Retrospection Yin Talisman is special in that it binds to its owner and is unusable to anyone else. Additionally, if the owner dies, the talisman also disappears.

The reason lies in those black secret texts. Strictly speaking, they are not normal runes at all.

Just when Wen Jiu lamented, one person activated a Blood Demon Retrospection Yin Talisman. Immediately, black smoke erupted around them, with a hidden blood color within it. When the black smoke spread a hundred feet, everything that had happened here began to rewind.

Birds flew by, cultivators passed over, and even a downpour; it quickly rewound to the scene several months ago when Master Jue Ying fell. The scene where the ghost creature, formed by East Spring Undying Bone, easily broke free from the Demon Shadow Formless Technique was imprinted into the three’s eyes, causing their eyes beneath the masks to show intense shock.

”No early-stage Golden Core Cultivator has ever broken free from the Demon Shadow Formless Technique of Master Jue Ying until now. That this Ghost Cultivator could do it so effortlessly, could it be he is indeed the top-grade Golden Core cultivator from the Lu Family?”

”Aside from him, likely no one else could.”

”A top-grade Golden Core, indeed it’s not just mere reputation. At the moment of Realm Breakthrough, it’s already so, and if allowed to grow, he will surely become the greatest hidden threat to our Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect. Good thing the Altar Master had foresight, not only spending a hundred years of life with the Fate Technique for divination but also using the Blood Demon Retrospection Yin Talisman to uncover the truth.”

While they spoke, the retrospective scene had reached the end. When the three heard ”Master He’s words were indeed true; this ghost aura can suppress your Formless Demonic Qi,” the horror in their eyes deepened.

Master He?

The He Family!

He Xiong Wu?

This Ghost Cultivator colluded with the He Family!

The retrospective quickly ended, and the Blood Demon Retrospection Yin Talisman was completely consumed by black fire, leaving the trio of Fake Pill Demon Cultivators standing there in a dumbfounded state. They couldn’t believe that this involved the He Family.

The He Family, loyal to them, the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect, had actually colluded with the Lu Family and harmed their dark altar’s Master Jue Ying.

Meanwhile, the He Family were crying pitifully before the Altar Master, claiming the Lu Family killed He Xiong Wu, and even He Xiong Wu’s Life Soul Lamp had extinguished.

”The He Family, they hid themselves so deeply. Outwardly loyal to our Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect, but behind the scenes, they’ve long been in cahoots with the Lu Family.”

”This matter is of great importance. The He Family knows too much about our Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect’s dark altar matters and must quickly report back to the Altar Master.”

”Let’s go!”

The trio transformed back into their formless state and once more disappeared among the tree shadows, while Wen Jiu controlled East Spring Undying Bone to follow immediately.

He couldn’t help but marvel.

”Luckily, with foresight, I guessed the Demon Cultivators’ methods weren’t simple and framed the He Family... Who could have thought there was such a special item like the retrospective Yin Talisman?” Wen Jiu reminded himself again.

Never to be like the protagonists in novels who reveal their true identity just before the villain dies.

Otherwise, you wouldn’t even know how you died.

If you’re going to act,

you must act thoroughly.

The enemy must not know who killed him, and also never know whom they truly offended before their death.

...

After two continuous days of following and flying fifty thousand miles deep into the Celestial Yin Mountain Range, the three Fake Pill Demon Cultivators finally stopped. Their destination coincidentally was where the Unrestrained Yin Evil Spirit was.
