Chapter 194 Taiyin Sha Shi Qingyang Zhenren
Midnight.
The time when the lunar affliction is at its strongest between heaven and earth.
Wang Yu sat cross-legged in front of the corpse, continuously casting out corpse-refining incantations that were deeply imprinted into the living corpse. His tongue traced across the sharp teeth on his upper palate, and he quickly spat out a mouthful of blood mist.
"The Taiyin refines the physical form, while the Yue Sha refines the soul."
"The earth is filthy and cursed, returning to the corpse."
"The sky is gloomy, the earth is spiritual, the life of the dead is far away, the soul of the living is hard to descend, all evil spirits turn into evil, and the body is fixed and disintegrated."
"Imperial decree—Raise the corpse!!!"
In an instant, the Taiyin Moon Fiend, like boiling, thick white smoke, was sucked into the zombie's belly. Its last wisp of life, like a candle flickering in the wind, turned into a raging torrent of corpse energy in the blink of an eye.
"roar---"
The roar, like that of a monstrous beast, was so loud it hurt people's ears. Wang Yu quickly felt the backlash of his divine sense. This Taiyin Sha Corpse was a threat to him, even if he did his best.
However, due to his cultivation level and mastery of secret techniques, it was almost impossible for him to perfectly reproduce the corpse's strength in life. According to his estimation, it was at most the early stage of the third rank.
That result is correct.
However, its ferocity was even greater than that recorded in the Yin Sha Corpse Refining Technique, and even with his divine sense power comparable to the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage, it was still quite difficult to suppress.
"That shouldn't be the case. The Corpse Control Seal can control a corpse that is a level higher than one's own spiritual consciousness. Could this Taiyin Fiend Corpse be a variant of a zombie?"
Wang Yu stepped forward with a powerful stride, placing one foot on the chest of the Taiyin Sha Corpse, stomping the now erect creature down once more.
He sat cross-legged to suppress the corpse, placed his right hand with fingers pointing to the center of the corpse's forehead, and pressed his left hand against his armpit, unleashing a surge of divine power.
Perfect Realm - Divine Sense Secret Technique - Soul Shattering Finger!
This operation was brutal, directly turning the newly born bloodthirsty consciousness of the Taiyin Sha Shi into a mess, as if stirring up a tangible divine consciousness, and then injecting another set of corpse control seals.
Finally, the struggling corpse calmed down.
Wang Yu let out a soft sigh, wiped away non-existent sweat, and examined the refined corpse in front of him.
The Corpse Demons are classified into four tiers: Hairy Corpse, Green Corpse, Flying Corpse, and Yaksha, corresponding to the four realms of Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, and Nascent Soul!
The flying zombie level of the evil corpse has no armored corpse clothes.
However, the basic qualities that come with the grade, such as immense strength, iron skin and bones, ability to fly and burrow underground, and fearlessness of the scorching sun, are still present.
Furthermore, flying zombies also possess unique supernatural abilities belonging to the Fiend Corpse, similar to the Golden Armor Corpse Garment. These are fundamental abilities, and their strength depends entirely on this Fiend Corpse Divine Power.
The abilities brought by the Taiyin Moon Fiend are like its innate talent, something it knows from birth, almost like an instinct.
Its name is—
"The evil curse of the corpse!"
Wang Yu murmured, if the armored corpse is regarded as a fierce and skilled body cultivator, then the evil corpse is a spellcaster who is proficient in magic.
Although its physical body is not weak, it is more adept at fighting using corpse magic.
The so-called "Corpse Curse" is similar to a curse technique. It is so powerful that there is almost no chance of dodging it. It can cast a Yin Moon Curse on the target.
It diminishes one's true essence, corrupts one's magical implements, weakens one's supernatural powers, and defiles one's physical body.
It's an all-purpose ability, but without superior protective measures, if one is hit by a curse, their strength will be reduced by at least 50%.
"What a powerful corpse, what incredible abilities!"
Wang Yu couldn't help but grin. With this corpse in hand, and with a helper—just two rogue cultivators at the early stage of Core Formation—he could fight them all by himself.
Furthermore, due to the high level of the Taiyin Moon Fiend, the flying zombie's abilities such as remote blood absorption, fiend control, and corpse kicking have all been enhanced.
Among the early-stage third-tier evil corpses, it is definitely a top-tier item, the kind that would even tempt a true disciple of the Heavenly Corpse Peak!
"You old man, you look too unlucky. This city lord will give you a makeover."
Wang Yu used a technique from the Corpse Refining Art, and the withered and old Taiyin Corpse's skin wrinkles were filled with corpse energy, and the unsightly wrinkles disappeared.
His face was also modified, leaving only a pair of eerie green eyes, so that no one could recognize the original owner's appearance. This was also to prevent relatives and friends from seeing the corpse.
These concealments and modifications are necessary, and cultivators of the Corpse Path are particularly skilled in this art. The fact that they have such rules passed down is also due to the lessons learned through bloodshed.
Wang Yu took out a first-tier magic artifact, a black robe, which could conceal his aura. He put the Taiyin Sha Corpse inside, and at this point, the initial resurrection of the corpse was complete.
He then touched the storage bag and took out a jade bottle.
It contains Xueyu's demon blood. A newly born zombie is bound to bleed, so drinking his blood is unlucky. Drinking the blood of the three-tailed snow fox is just right, as it is potent and plentiful!
After finishing, Wang Yu used a corpse-suppressing talisman to put the body into a deep sleep and placed it under the moonlight in the starry sky ceiling of the secret room.
"We'll have to find you a coffin to live in."
Wang Yu didn't have any magical artifacts like corpse bags, and besides, storing a third-tier evil corpse also required a third-tier corpse bag. It would be better to purchase a coffin with shrinking capabilities.
Fill it with the Taiyin Moon Sha, shrink it and hang it on your waist on ordinary days, or use it as an ornament. It is convenient to hang it anywhere.
…………
…………
The following day, Wang Yu had just arranged for someone to go to Jinmanlou to explain the requirements. If they couldn't find it, they would transfer it from a branch in another city.
The most basic requirements are internal space, shrinking, and concealing aura. The more other functions you have, the better. If you can get a third-tier one, get a third-tier one. At the very least, you should get a second-tier high-grade one.
Lord Wang's purse is always quite full.
It's not a problem to lose a few spirit stones.
At this moment.
Xu Ruozhou walked over quickly: "Lord City Lord, Master Qingyang has come to pay a visit."
"A True Person?" Wang Yu keenly sensed the difference. He was just about to invite the Golden Flower Senior from the Fragrance Fragrance Sect, but True Person Qingyang might be more suitable.
It had been four years since the two last met. Had he broken through so quickly? Wang Yu remembered that it had taken Wei Zhong ten years to break through to the Core Formation stage, with another year or two spent stabilizing his realm.
Qingyang's breakthrough was far too fast.
"Yes, Lord City Lord. Senior Qingyang recently successfully formed his core and is here to invite you to his core formation celebration. He is the only one from the Shuimo Sect who came."
Where is he?
"Please come to the reception room."
"I understand, you may leave."
"yes."
When Wang Yu stepped into the reception room, Master Qingyang still stood up to greet him, showing no sign of any objection from the other members of the Shuimo Sect.
Indeed, regardless of the circumstances, his interests were not harmed, and it seems he even gained quite a bit, from Foundation Establishment to Core Formation, which is a major breakthrough.
Countless people in the cultivation world are stuck at this step.
"Brother Qingyang, congratulations!"
This painter, now rejuvenated and remarkably handsome, also wore a broad smile.
"My success is also thanks to Brother Wang; Jin Manlou's intelligence helped me a lot."
"On this trip, we not only retrieved the body of our ancestor and obtained his relics, but also acquired a Core Formation spiritual item in the royal palace of the ancient ruins. How fortunate we are!"
"I see---
"This was originally your opportunity, fellow Daoist. It's good that it didn't ruin your plans. Why pin the blame on me?"
Upon hearing this...
Wang Yu's smile became even more genuine, and the change in address made him seem more intimate. He asked curiously.
"Four years have passed since we parted. Brother Dao must have gone through many hardships to successfully form the core in such a short time. Would you be willing to tell me a little about it?"
That's exactly what I was thinking.
Speaking of his experiences over the past few years, Master Qingyang looked quite emotional.
When he left the city lord's mansion, he originally planned to go directly to Dongjijing. At that time, the strange phenomenon had just appeared, and no disciples from major sects had come to pick up the peaches yet.
As soon as he entered the ruins, he was targeted by a corpse demon and barely escaped with his life. As soon as he returned to Guiling City, he saw the stone tablet that Wang Yu had erected in the East City Square.
After reading it carefully, I felt both annoyed and relieved.
Based on the intelligence from all three parties, he quickly devised a new route.
He was able to obtain the Core Formation spiritual item in the Prince's mansion thanks to Jin Manlou's intelligence, which was also the place Jin Miaoshan originally planned to explore.
However, he was preoccupied with matters within the building, allowing Qingyang to take the lead.
Such a great opportunity and other gains immediately turned his displeasure with Wang Yu into gratitude, after all, although Wang Yu disclosed the information, he still concealed some key details.
He was just one step ahead, and then, by sheer luck, he found the remains of the founder of the Ink Painting Sect, and took all his belongings with him.
One of them is a special treasure for warding off robbery.
Its name is—【The Descent of Heavenly Thunder】!
This is a treasure that the Water Ink Ancestor once used to overcome the Golden Core Tribulation, and it is perfect for Qingyang to use.
And the so-called 'treasure for warding off calamity'.
It is a treasure specially crafted for tribulation lightning. It has no other function, and can only be used when undergoing tribulation, thus maximizing its effectiveness in dealing with tribulation lightning.
Some can resist, some can disperse, and some can enhance resistance to lightning tribulations.
The Heavenly Thunder Descends Diagram is a rare type of diagram. Its effect is to absorb lightning tribulations until it reaches its limit, at which point it will become ineffective. In this state, the diagram becomes a kind of "tribulation lightning bomb".
Its coverage is extremely wide; using it is the kind that leads to mutual destruction, after all, it has accumulated countless people's tribulations.
The secret to Qingyang's rapid breakthrough lies here.
He had been stuck at the peak of Foundation Establishment for many years, and his cultivation had long been perfected. All he lacked was a spiritual object for Core Formation. This opportunity brought together all the necessary conditions.
He went to another city, rented a third-tier cave dwelling to break through, and everything went so smoothly that even the Golden Core tribulation was swallowed up by the Heavenly Thunder Descending Diagram.
It took another year to stabilize his realm before he returned to the Ink Painting Sect these past few days.
This comparison with Wei Chongyi reveals the difference.
Wei Zhong made the preparations at the last minute. He unexpectedly discovered a suitable Core Formation spiritual item among the offerings from his subordinates. He only applied to the sect for a cave for breakthrough and a treasure to avoid calamity before hastily going into seclusion.
His own state was not yet perfect, so it took him more than ten years to break through successfully. He was too impatient.
at the moment.
Qingyang recounted his experiences in detail, and Wang Yu revealed an envious expression: "Brother, your luck is such that you are destined to break through to the Core Formation stage. You were born with this blessing. I wonder about that Thunder Diagram..."
"Haha, Brother Wang, you don't need to praise me anymore." Qingyang habitually put his hand on his chin, about to stroke his beautiful beard.
But after discovering that his lifespan had been extended by five hundred years, all the symbols of middle age had disappeared, which made him sigh.
"A Golden Core cultivator lives to be eight hundred years old, it's really a bit hard to get used to..."
"As for Lei Tu, Brother Wang, don't worry too much. It's far from its limit yet. If you need it in the future, just ask me for it, and I will definitely agree."
"Brother Dao is generous and open-minded!"
