Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

Chapter 507: Chapter 259: The Hidden Demon Sect’s Pursuit, Reunion with Lu Chan

The location of the Three Karmic Demon Luo.

”No wonder the Minor Corpse Fate Technique cannot discern too many life fate veins, only revealing the involvement of a Demon Pill Zhenren from the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect. It turns out this place is the Dark Altar of the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect, affecting the entire sect.”

As Wen Jiu watched the three enter a dense forest valley, he began to carefully examine the Dark Altar with his Divine Sense.

The valley did not have a Concealment Array set up, but it did have several extremely secretive hidden restrictions. As soon as someone entered the valley, the restrictions would quietly activate, alerting the cultivators who set them up.

One must admit, the people of the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect know some warfare strategies. If they truly set up a Concealment Array here, it would risk being discovered, and might even be mistaken by cultivators as a place of opportunity.

But if there is nothing, just an ordinary valley, a Golden Core Cultivator passing overhead would pay no attention.

When the Divine Sense of East Spring Undying Bone followed the three deep into the valley and kept advancing into the cave for a long time, a Concealment Array quietly emerged. If not for following the three and being present, even the Divine Sense of East Spring Undying Bone would not discern anything, only considering it as part of a large mountain.

”It’s definitely a Tier Three Middle-Grade Concealment Array, perhaps even more outrageous.”

Wen Jiu immediately used the Three Thousand Blood Inks at this location for divination, ensuring that the opponents did not sense the divination before began examining the life fate veins, analyzing the hidden dangers.

Unfortunately.

The Corpse Fate Technique would need to be perfected to divine fortune and misfortune.

Otherwise, if using the Corpse Fate Technique to divine again, entering this Dark Altar would be safer.

Moments later.

Through examining visible life fate veins and the consumption of corpse qi, Wen Jiu analyzed some information. Firstly, the Unrestrained Yin Evil Spirit location involved only that Demon Pill Cultivator.

As for the Three Karmic Demon, it was further below the Dark Altar. Previously, it had not involved too many life fate veins, but now it was entangled with various things. If wanting to delve deep into the altar to kill the Three Karmic Demon, it would be extremely risky.

”It seems the thing beneath the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect is the reason the old demon ventured to this ghostly place. With the True Demon Evil Curse here, though East Spring Undying Bone has Yin Spirit Technique and Three Rivers Ghost Concealment to hide its presence, preventing the old Three Karmic Demon from pinpointing the location, that old demon might suspect I came looking for him, hence why he hid inside.” Wen Jiu mused in frustration.

These old demons having lived for thousands of years are truly hard to kill.

”But this also indicates that perhaps he fears me.”

Wen Jiu set his thoughts aside, deciding to ignore the Three Karmic Demon for now and first obtain the Unrestrained Yin Evil Spirit. Given East Spring Undying Bone’s current power, the Three Karmic Demon poses no major threat.

Killing him sooner or later is essentially the same.

The only difference is, killing him sooner allows for quicker understanding of the plot behind the Outer Demonic Pregnancy Demon True Technique.

...

After waiting a while longer, Wen Jiu kept using the Corpse Fate Technique for divination, ensuring that there were no emerging life fate veins or hidden plots behind the Unrestrained Yin Evil Spirit before a Blood Corpse Escape allowed him to enter the valley.

Without triggering any restrictions, he reached the Concealment Array in one move, but Wen Jiu did not choose to enter.

Instead, he engaged in ’waiting for the rabbit.’

The one possessing the Unrestrained Yin Evil Spirit cannot stay inside forever.

As for entering.

Entering forever is impossible.

However, after waiting in the concealed cave for half a month, that person never emerged, though other Demon Pill Cultivators flew out of the Dark Altar one after another, mostly heading towards the He Family. Clearly, those Demon Pill Cultivators now believe Master Jue Ying’s death was due to collusion between the He Family and Lu Family.

The previous tension in the East Pole Immortal City was merely a façade. Plus, judging by their words, they seem to believe the Lu Family’s top-grade Golden Core Cultivator’s location must be known to the He Family.

”The He Family probably never dreamed that after doing so many things, they suddenly became traitors of the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect.” Wen Jiu sighed, feeling a slight satisfaction in shifting the blame onto others.

If you enjoy working for the Demon Sect, laying hidden plans and making people anxious, then let the He Family also taste their own bitter fruit.

It was at this moment that a familiar aura suddenly appeared, and a Demon Pill Zhenren swiftly approached the valley, holding someone at hand. A Fake Pill Zhenren whose meridians, fake pill, and Divine Sense were sealed.

This person was Lu Chan.

”Hmm?”

As surprise struck, the Demon Pill Zhenren possessing the Unrestrained Yin Evil Spirit abruptly flew out of the Concealment Array, approached the person, and glanced at the bound Lu Chan, ”Hand the person over to me.”

”The Lu Family is now frantically searching for our Dark Altar’s clues; some things were almost discovered by this old thing. Fortunately, I arrived in time... Investigate carefully, your Soul-Searching Technique can bypass the Silence Technique’s restrictions set by early-stage Golden Core cultivators. While some cost must be paid, it surely cannot compare to the Altar Master’s reward. So carefully check whether only she knows my plan in East Pole Immortal City, or the Lu Family’s Golden Core cultivators know, and she’s merely a scout.” He spoke, then immediately left.

But Wen Jiu could clearly sense that this person was not a Demon Cultivator; the Demon Cultivator was merely a disguise, though well enough to pass for real, even East Spring Undying Bone could only sense some anomalies.

”Is this another betrayer from East Pole Immortal City?”

Wen Jiu felt speechless.

It seems East Pole Immortal City is not a good place.

Once the two corpses reach Core Formation, he must not return there.

Find a new location!

The next moment.

Wen Jiu regained his focus and attacked at the precise moment the Demon Pill Cultivator possessing the Unrestrained Yin Evil Spirit took over Lu Chan.

A Blood Corpse Escape brought him at lightning speed to the foe’s rear, swiftly unleashing Spirit-Extinguishing Ghost Qi, followed by Jade Splendor Cyan Wood Divine Thunder wrapped around the opponent to prevent protective items, East Spring Undying Bone went directly to strike with Undying Bone Body, leaving Wen Jiu no chance to spare any energy.

Meanwhile, the Soul Capturing Eye of Postnatal Corpse Technique Divine Power Avoidance and Soul Capture opened, and terrifying Soul Capturing Power suddenly descended.

”Who...”

The exclamation ended abruptly.

The Demon Pill Zhenren, having just taken Lu Chan, had no time to react, his Protective Third-Stage Yin Talisman shattered instantly, his Demon Body was pierced by a punch, as ghost qi rushed inside, unleashing a massive Jade Splendor Cyan Wood Divine Thunder from within, preventing him from channeling any demonic qi.

Seeing this scene, Lu Chan, bound and her Divine Sense sealed, had been preparing to face death but now her eyes suddenly shone with brilliance. This aura was that of Li Bai, whom Lu Family ancestors had determined dead.

Li Bai was still alive!

In shock, the scene before her turned to illusion, repeatedly returning to clarity, and when tranquility was complete, they were already hundreds of miles away.

And that Demon Pill Zhenren had already lost his Demon Soul, and even his Demon Pill was plucked out by a single hand, his life visibly waning, death inevitable. In Lu Chan’s heart oceans of surprise surged; a Demon Pill Zhenren whom she was utterly powerless to resist just died at Li Bai’s hands.

Is this the might of a top-grade Golden Core?

As Lu Chan was astonished, Wen Jiu’s Divine Sense penetrated the storage bag of the Demon Cultivator, ensuring no problems before putting it away. As the corpse was stowed away, multiple Demon Pill Cultivator auras approached from behind.

Five individuals.

All were early-stage Demon Core.

East Spring Undying Bone feared nothing, but after all, they were in the Dark Altar of the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect, and the Unrestrained Yin Evil Spirit was already obtained, naturally, he couldn’t linger, ”Lu Chan, fellow Daoist, whether you survive depends on your Spirit Body.”

With that said.

Wen Jiu began using Blood Corpse Escape continuously.

If Lu Chan could endure.

Then today he would save Lu Chan.

If she couldn’t endure...

Though he owed a debt to Lu Chan, circumstances mattered. If repaying the favor endangered himself, Wen Jiu definitely wouldn’t act. At worst, wait a few decades and find a chance to repay her descendants.

Even though it’s a less favorable choice.

It might involve matters of cause and effect, but Wen Jiu had no other option.

Suddenly.

A middle-stage Demon Core aura swiftly pursued.

Coming from beneath the Dark Altar, where the Three Karmic Demon was.

”Thankfully, I didn’t go down!”

Wen Jiu was startled, frantically using Blood Corpse Escape.

In a flash, twenty times, covering twelve hundred miles!
