Chapter 057

As an adult, he...

Cheng Hui held Lin Qingyang...mainly because he held the child too tightly, and he couldn't throw him out, so he could only do this for now.

As an adult, he felt that he could not face a child's love confession calmly, so he could only stiffly change the subject.

"Um... what's with the zombie blood?"

Lin Qingyang felt Cheng Hui's resistance, sighed inwardly, and finally let him go as he wished.

"I can't put that jade bottle into the storage ring."

Cheng Hui: "What do you mean?"

Why can't it fit? What's so special about this thing?

Lin Qingyang reminded: "It is impossible to put living things into the storage ring."

Cheng Hui looked down at the jade bottle he had placed on the table and rubbed his chin. "Could there be something else hidden inside? That's not right. I remember you checked it at the time. How could you have missed it?"

"That's why I think there might be something else behind this bottle." Lin Qingyang hinted at something.

Cheng Hui enveloped the jade bottle with his spiritual sense and examined it inch by inch. He immediately discovered something was wrong. This seemingly ordinary jade bottle could surprisingly block his spiritual sense!

"Interesting." He picked up the jade bottle and looked it over. It looked like an ordinary jade bottle used for storing things, without even a single decoration on it.

When he opened the bottle, the zombie blood didn't emit the stench he'd imagined. Instead, it had a faint, sweet aroma. He inexplicably felt hungry as he sniffed it...

Looking inside the bottle, the sticky zombie blood was shaking gently, and there was nothing special about it. He handed the jade bottle to Lin Qingyang, saying that he could not see any problem.

Lin Qingyang also guessed that ordinary methods would not be able to find the problem, so he simply took out another jade bottle and poured the zombie blood into it.

Unexpectedly, this pouring made them discover the problem. The jade bottle looked small, and there were only a dozen drops of zombie blood in it at most. However, with Lin Qingyang's actions, zombie blood far exceeded its original amount and poured out continuously.

Moreover, as time passed, the quality of zombie blood everywhere became higher and higher, from the thousand-year-old zombie blood at the beginning, to the five thousand-year-old zombie blood later, and finally to the heavy blood with a metallic texture.

Cheng Hui and Lin Qingyang were speechless when they saw the zombie blood that filled nearly ten small jade bottles.

There is so much zombie blood, all from different years, which is enough for Cheng Hui to refine it more than ten times.

"Is this small jade bottle also a storage space?" Cheng Hui shook the small bottle, and this time it was really empty.

"Maybe..." Lin Qingyang stared at the small jade bottle thoughtfully.

The zombie blood can only be considered an unexpected gain, but they have not yet found out the reason why the jade bottle cannot be placed in the storage space.

"Put it aside for now. I'll help you refine it the first time." Lin Qingyang shook his head and put the matter aside for the time being.

Now that the zombie blood has been obtained, it is better to catch Cheng Hui's cultivation first. Refining this kind of thing has no side effects. On the contrary, it can directly improve his combat effectiveness, so it is naturally put first.

Cheng Hui lay obediently on the bed, allowing Lin Qingyang to cut his arm with a dagger. Black blood slowly flowed out of the wound. Only at this moment did Cheng Hui realize with great relief that he was already a corpse.

Eh?

I am already a corpse, will I still have some functions?

Suddenly, a thought popped up in his mind at a very inappropriate time.

If you calculate it this way...it's been almost a year since he traveled through time, and he doesn't seem to have even had a single reaction that a man should have.

Cheng Hui: ...

What the hell?

I can't be really dying, right?

Cheng Hui was confused for a moment, but quickly came to his senses.

Well, it’s good enough to have a second life, not to mention that he has died and been reborn so many times, so it’s normal even if he has some defects.

It’s a pity for Lin Qingyang... Well, if I tell him about this, he will probably give up on me, right?

Cheng Hui's mind was so full of random thoughts that he didn't even notice that Lin Qingyang was looking at him with a strange look.

In fact, Lin Qingyang was also confused. He just turned around, so why did Cheng Hui keep staring at that place on his body?

It would be fine if he just looked at it, but why did he have such a sighing expression on his face?

Could it be... ?

Lin Qingyang also looked over there silently.

As a man, he certainly knew how important that organ was, but Cheng Hui's current behavior made him wonder... something might be wrong there.

When he thought of this, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

No way! Is there something wrong with Cheng Hui? Is he afraid of being a burden to me, so he keeps rejecting my advances?

Lin Qingyang's expression was uncertain as he pondered the possibility that Cheng Hui was injured. But before he could come up with anything, he saw that Cheng Hui was fine and asked, "Why don't you do anything yet?"

Lin Qingyang: ...

Maybe I'm overthinking it..._(:з」∠)_

He silently picked up the ordinary jade bottle and poured the thousand-year-old zombie blood inside into the wound that had begun to heal.

As soon as the sticky blood dripped into the wound, it quickly began to merge into Cheng Hui's body.

"Focus your mind." Lin Qingyang reminded him, and then began to practice dual cultivation with Cheng Hui.

This kind of dual cultivation is certainly not the restricted kind, but it forms a circulation of the spiritual power in the bodies of two people, which can be completed by just touching their palms.

Lin Qingyang had long resented this method of cultivation. When he got the jade slip for cultivation, he even felt that he had been scammed.

To be honest... as a demon cultivator, he had seen quite a few dual cultivations, but this kind of dual cultivation where they didn't even have to take off their clothes was too 'unworthy of the name'!

It was a waste of time for him to wait so long!

In any case, the refining has begun.

At this time, Cheng Hui, as a Xuan corpse, could only cooperate as much as possible.

The Corpse Life Xuan Luo Gong is a practice of cultivators, so naturally the cultivators are the ones who take the lead when practicing it.

Of course, the Xuan corpses in the early stages do not have complete spiritual intelligence. It is good enough if they can cooperate and not cause trouble. If you expect them to actively practice, they may go astray.

Cheng Hui is just an extremely special case, so when the two of them practiced, their efficiency was far better than that of their other brothers. This time, Cheng Hui had even solved the problem of his speech and actions being stuck, so the cooperation was much smoother.

The spiritual power of the same origin formed a cycle in Lin Qingyang's body, and then flowed into Cheng Hui's body from the palms of their hands.

Cheng Hui couldn't help but shudder. Even though it wasn't his first time practicing, the feeling of something invading his body still made him feel very uncomfortable.

Fortunately, each time he practiced, he would only feel a little uncomfortable during the first cycle. When he no longer felt anything unusual, he had an idea and wrapped himself up with his spiritual sense.

He didn't know why his spiritual sense was so powerful, but after his testing, his spiritual sense was really very useful, almost versatile, and could be used for anything.

For example, in the various inspections before, it was difficult for general special items to be hidden from his spiritual sense, so using spiritual sense to pick up bargains in the future might be a good way to make a fortune.

Secondly, when his spiritual sense is activated, almost no one can sneak attack him. He has become accustomed to covering the surroundings with his spiritual sense. It won't be too far away, but it is also impossible for someone to get close to him without noticing.

Finally, this is what he discovered recently. He found that he could use his spiritual consciousness to form inner vision.

In the past, in modern times, people often had to use various scientific and technological means to observe the human body, but his spiritual consciousness was even more useful than various magnetic resonance imaging methods. As long as he wanted, he could even observe the direction of spiritual power.

The thousand-year-old zombie blood that flowed out of the wound was clearly distinguishable from his own blood. Through observation with spiritual sense, he could see that the thousand-year-old zombie blood contained streams of energy, and although his own blood also contained energy, the saturation was far from enough.

During the circulation of Lin Qingyang's spiritual power, the thousand-year-old zombie blood was broken down and destroyed bit by bit, and the energy contained in it would continue to be absorbed into his blood.

Cheng Hui watched for a while and found that Lin Qingyang was having a hard time refining it.

This wasn't hard to understand. A thousand-year-old zombie's blood, at least at the level of a Silver Armored Corpse, was equivalent to a cultivator's Golden Core. Lin Qingyang was only at the seventh level of Qi Refining. If the zombie blood hadn't been ownerless and the quantity wasn't large, his desire to refine it would have been sheer nonsense.

Even if I can barely refine it now, the efficiency is not high. But if I keep grinding it slowly, I will definitely be able to complete it.

Cheng Hui watched Lin Qingyang working hard to refine the spirit, wondering if he could help.

Under Lin Qingyang's control, he doesn't need to do anything with the spiritual power, but he does have some ideas in other aspects.

The purpose of refining is to destroy the zombie blood and release the energy in them, but does he have any means of his own?

Cheng Hui thought for a while, and suddenly an idea came to his mind. He did have a talent, and that talent happened to be very good at destruction!

Normally, when he used the Red Lotus Karma Fire, he only needed to open his mouth to spit it out, but this time, using it inside his body did not require that much effort.

Cheng Hui's mind moved, and a small flame flew out from his sea of ​​consciousness, constantly approaching the zombie blood along the spiritual power veins.

Even though the zombie blood was dead, it could still feel the power of the red lotus fire. The remaining blood actually clumped into a ball, and its hardness increased significantly.

Cheng Hui hadn't expected such a change to happen, but... since he was already here...

He directly launched the Red Lotus Karma Fire at it, and the moment the zombie blood came into contact with the Red Lotus Karma Fire, it instantly burned up...

It happened so fast that Cheng Hui didn't have time to react.

Immediately afterwards, a strong energy suddenly exploded, and the blood around it instantly boiled, as if a large amount of energy was forcibly stuffed into it, and even the black blood seemed to become darker.

It is not obvious when viewed alone, but once compared, you will find that the blood in that piece is darker, as if it wants to absorb all the light, and it is completely two different species from the blood next to it.

Cheng Hui was stunned... No, what happened just now?

"Ouch! It hurts, it hurts!"

At this moment, he screamed, and the inky blood seemed to be burning, and a sharp pain came.

Lin Qingyang had been paying attention to this place since Cheng Hui made his move. He did not stop him, but after the change occurred, he immediately turned his spiritual power back and wrapped the inky blood.

"Oh my god... it hurts so much..." The pain came quickly and went away even faster. If the inky blood had not been separated and wrapped, Cheng Hui would even have the illusion that he had never existed.

"You are so brave." Lin Qingyang was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

The piece of blood wrapped in spiritual power did not change again, but for a moment, the two did not know how to deal with it.

It is possible to expel it from the body, but it always feels a bit regrettable. If we let it wander around in Cheng Hui's body, it might cause problems for his body.

Cheng Hui was also in a headache. He had done this to himself, and he had to finish it even if he had to kneel down...

"Come on, release some of it, and I'll see if I can absorb it in other ways." Cheng Hui took a deep breath and prepared to endure the pain.
