Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

Chapter 531: Chapter 270: The Origin of the Soul, A Trade [Second Update, Requesting Monthly Votes!]

”Forget it, let it be evil.”

”Fortunately, my fate involves too many elements. Even the Nascent Soul True Monarchs who obtain the Nascent Soul Dao Fruit cannot discern my true identity. As long as I hide well enough, there shouldn’t be any major issues.”

Wen Jiu set aside his thoughts and once again focused on the notes, noting that the lifespan gained from the Demon Corpse could be used externally.

Could this lifespan directly be applied to him?

If possible.

Then without needing to pick a greater Dao Fruit, he could achieve longevity through the Undying Demon Corpse divine technique of the Blood Demon Undying Bone.

With this idea in mind, Wen Jiu was filled with anticipation.

Ten days later, when the Three Corpses returned, Wen Jiu couldn’t wait to control the Blood Demon Undying Bone and manipulate the swallowed five hundred and sixty years of lifespan. However, the results were disappointing, as he couldn’t directly increase his own lifespan.

He found that for other people or monsters, using this divine technique similarly couldn’t increase lifespan. However, Wen Jiu discovered through research that if he used the Life Burning Technique, he could directly use the lifespan of the Blood Demon Undying Bone.

”Although I can’t directly increase my lifespan, I can freely use the Life Burning Technique.” Wen Jiu was still very satisfied with this result because the Life Burning Technique could sometimes be a surefire method for victory.

Feng Jue excelled at such methods, and after life burning, he could contend with those in the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment.

Even so, Feng Jue’s burned lifespan was only about ten to twenty years.

If he could burn a hundred or thousand years of lifespan at once, it’s hard to imagine how terrifying the effects would be.

”However, to burn a millennium’s lifespan, one would need to swallow a decade-long lifespan from others—killing ten to twenty Golden Core Zhenrens just for that. The trouble caused by killing so many Golden Core Cultivators won’t be small. If killing Foundation Establishment Cultivators, it would require around one or two hundred. But killing so many just for one burn seems a waste.

Furthermore, with the Three Corpses and Five Ghosts already at hand, there’s no need for practicing such recklessness spells, nor to personally take action, unnecessarily increasing risks. Thus, the best choice should be to cultivate some auxiliary magic techniques.”

Thinking of this, Wen Jiu immediately delved into the vast soul memories of Jue Xing, Jue Xing, and the Three Karmic Demon, seeking auxiliary types of Life Burning Techniques. His first consideration was cultivating the Blood Corpse Mushroom method. The Gathering Yin Poison Technique was good, and its cultivation yields fruitful results, but the Three Corpses have already become the Unmelting Golden Pill.

The Tier Two Lower Grade Blood Corpse Mushroom no longer satisfied him; he needed a method to cultivate it to a higher grade.

However, even within the soul memories of the Three Karmic Demon, there wasn’t such a method, for even Demon Cultivators are reluctant to waste their own lifespans, let alone use them to cultivate evil spiritual medicines.

Yet, within the Three Karmic Demon’s soul memories, there existed such methods. In this world, there are many cultivators, and not everyone’s life goal is the Golden Core Dao and Immortal Longevity.

There are many whose life goals are quite unique. For instance, the Beast Tamers who aim to raise a Third-stage Spirit Beast in their lifetime; or Talisman Masters, who devote their lives solely to drawing a Tier Three or Tier Four Talisman. It is precisely due to the existence of these individuals that the myriad arts of cultivation shine so brilliantly.

Thus, there must exist such Spirit Farmers who cultivate their spiritual medicines through burning lifespan. The Three Karmic Demon didn’t have it because, despite his long life, he hadn’t ventured far, spending over three thousand years in the Divine Fall Mountain Range, Celestial Demon Sea, and the West Mountain Floating Domain and nearby domains. Though he lived long, his experiences weren’t extensive.

Of course.

Far better than those cultivators who spend their entire lives in the West Mountain Floating Domain or Divine Fall Mountain Range.

”Currently, among those I’ve encountered with broader knowledge, there might only be that mysterious soul within Feng Jue’s body.”

Upon realizing this, Wen Jiu immediately attempted to use the Corpse Fate Technique to divinate and investigate its origins.

With the perfected Corpse Fate Technique, divination only consumes corpse energy. Even though it might damage the corpse body’s Yin blessings, Wen Jiu doesn’t mind, having cultivated the Three Thousand Blood Inks precisely for this purpose. He couldn’t possibly be afraid of damaging the corpse body’s Yin blessings and not use it.

...

After a round of divination, consuming nearly half of the Three Thousand Blood Inks’ corpse energy, Wen Jiu obtained detailed fate information.

As expected.

The soul within Feng Jue’s body, in life, had exceptionally high cultivation, a Golden Core Perfection existence, not just any regular Golden Core Perfection, but from a Nascent Soul Level sect deep within the Hundred Floating Domains.

However, because it involved a Nascent Soul existence, due to the limitations of the Three Thousand Blood Inks’ cultivation, the Corpse Fate Technique couldn’t divine much more.

But Wen Jiu could ascertain their names and life fate veins, and even see the names of those who killed them. As long as it doesn’t involve a Nascent Soul existence, the Corpse Fate Technique can divine a lot of information.

Whether it’s everything, Wen Jiu couldn’t be certain, but judging by the existing information, Wen Jiu felt that there’s a high possibility that the old man had what he wanted. Of course, if not, Wen Jiu was indifferent.

The lifespan devoured by the Blood Demon Undying Bone could be accumulated, as the perfected Corpse Fate Technique can be utilized.

Speaking of which, the ability of the Undying Demon Corpse to devour lifespan complements the perfected Corpse Fate Technique.

With the perfected Corpse Fate Technique, one can predict personal fortunes, glimpse celestial secrets, a boon not only currently but also when venturing into the turbulent currents of the Hundred Floating Domains later. After all, the daily resolution panel can only provide information in hindsight, minimizing troubles brought by the Outer Demonic Pregnancy Demon True Technique, but it can’t prevent them outright, truly ensuring complete personal safety.

But the perfected Corpse Fate Technique can.
