Chapter 267 Selling Demon Corpses at the Ninth Level of Foundation Establishment! (Bonus Chapter for Monthly Tickets!!)
The atmosphere remained silent for a long while.
Seeing that Wang Yu's expression was off, Wei Hao didn't know if he had said something wrong, or if Wang Yu didn't actually have a strong desire for the [Earth Spirit Fruit].
I thought about it carefully.
Wang Yu still felt that Wei Hao was a very good partner, and even if the other party was "outspoken," it was still worth serious consideration.
Moreover, Wei Hao was a true disciple of the Heavenly Corpse Peak, and his skills were a perfect match for Wang Yu's corpse refining techniques.
To be honest, ever since he started raising the Taiyin Sha Corpse and the Thunder Corpse, he discovered that the unborn demonic corpses had already exceeded the limits of his divine sense's control.
After all, the former two also need to advance; they can't stay at the early stage of the third rank forever. Once they advance to the middle stage, the pressure on their divine sense will increase dramatically.
This is because there is no constraint of cultivating the Corpse Path technique.
It seems the demonic corpse can be sold to Wei Hao. The latter's natal corpse was refined by Jiang Zhenchuan to become the [Corpse King], which should still be in a missing state at present.
With a little nurturing, the demonic corpse can advance to the third tier.
Thus, with the combined efforts of the two, along with the Core Formation expert from the Wei clan, they could indeed compete for the Earth Spirit Fruit.
Thinking of this, Wang Yu immediately produced a Styx Contract.
Wei Hao was completely bewildered and asked, "Lord Wang, what do you mean by this?"
"Come on, let's make a deal first. I need a spiritual medicine that can directly increase the upper limit of true essence. The quantity doesn't matter, as long as the total can increase it by a thousand drops of true essence."
Wei Hao was puzzled and said helplessly.
"A spiritual medicine with a maximum of one thousand drops of true essence? Brother Wang, are you joking?"
Wang Yu shook his head and said seriously.
"Trust me, I guarantee you'll be satisfied. It's exactly what you need. With it... maybe Brother Wei can turn the tables on that guy surnamed Jiang."
Wei Hao fell into deep thought, then recalled his earlier assessment of Wang Yu, and gritted his teeth.
"Can."
“Brother Wei is truly generous. Rest assured! You will definitely not regret it. In addition to the spiritual medicine that increases the upper limit of true essence, after we cooperate to seize the Earth Spirit Fruit, I, Wang, have the right to take one more.”
The remaining conditions are the most basic ones, such as not harming each other.
Seeing that he wanted to add more conditions, Wei Hao began to lose confidence.
"What exactly is so precious?"
Wang Yu smiled without saying a word. After Wei Hao signed the contract, he took the demonic corpse, which could rise from the dead at any time, out of the coffin.
"how?"
moment.
Wei Hao approached the demonic corpse and, with a slightly trembling hand, began to stroke it: "This...this...this is a demonic corpse refined by the Corpse Demon. It only needs to reverse its life force to be reborn!"
The other party was indeed very knowledgeable; the demonic corpse was just the most basic version. Depending on the different evil energy refined, it could be upgraded into different types of demonic corpses.
Every single one of them is a different species.
Given the rarity of corpse demons, they might only exist in places like Dongji Jing. And Wang Yu has already scattered its demonic soul, refining it into a living zombie, making it an absolute top-tier specimen.
For a cultivator of the Corpse Path, a top-quality zombie is no less than the most perfect Daoist partner.
This demonic corpse is even more outstanding than Wei Hao's previous natal corpse.
He even began to feel fortunate that he lost the Corpse Fighting Tournament, otherwise how could he have easily changed his natal corpse?
"Great! That's wonderful!"
"I am quite pleased that Brother Wang is willing to offer such a valuable treasure."
"I'm glad you're satisfied. If I were a disciple of Heavenly Corpse Peak, I would definitely not sell this demonic corpse. I wonder how much time Brother Wei needs to prepare for the Earth Spirit Fruit..."
Before Wang Yu finished speaking, he wanted to hear whether Wei Hao's sudden change of mind was due to other variables or something else.
Upon hearing this, Wei Hao gradually regained his composure.
Elixir to increase true essence...
"Just now, Brother Wang said he was going to Taozhou to find Purple Gold Peaches. My family has some in reserve. How about we trade these spiritual items for them?"
"Can."
"As for the Earth Spirit Fruit, I heard that something happened in Huangbai City, which is why I was able to spare some of my men. Brother Wang, please rest assured and wait a few days. You and I can go later."
Seeing that he was well-informed, Wang Yu temporarily stayed at the Wanglong City Lord's Mansion. He wanted to break through to the ninth level of Foundation Establishment before the outcome of the competition for the Earth Spirit Fruit was decided.
At that time.
With the help of the Earth Spirit Fruit, one could reach the peak of Foundation Establishment in one fell swoop, and upon returning to Guiling, begin the process of Core Formation, thus saving thirty to forty years.
Such spiritual items that directly increase cultivation level are rare.
Wang Yu had only encountered the Ghost Eye Spider and the Black Cloud Cordyceps before. The Earth Spirit Fruit he was now encountering was an ancient spiritual object that could only be found in ruins.
The distance between Zhuyue Prefecture and the mountain gate is too far, and the Wei clan's territory is also within the territory of Xueyuan Prefecture, so the spirit creatures cannot be dispatched in a short time.
However, because of the Styx Contract, the demonic corpse has been handed over to Wei Hao, who is now preparing to refine it directly into his natal corpse. As for whether he should put in extra effort and cultivate it to the third rank.
It all depends on whether he has the confidence to survive the tribulation.
The difficulty of the third-order lightning tribulation is not too great, since there are only three lightning bolts. The fourth-order tribulation is truly deadly, with a total of nine lightning bolts, and each strike is much more powerful.
Wei Hao has the cultivation level of the second stage of Core Formation, so he wouldn't go into battle unprepared.
While waiting for the spiritual objects to arrive, Wang Yu used his beginner-level Qi-gazing Golden Eyes to take a walk outside the city and collect all the Qi from the four directions.
These things are quite easy to collect. Wherever there are tall, majestic mountains, there will be plenty of ley lines. Plains with fertile soil and turbulent rivers will also have both water and ley lines.
As long as the source isn't cut off, earth energy, like spiritual energy, is almost inexhaustible.
In this way, all that is missing is [Ink Copper] to refine a Feng Shui compass with effects such as positioning, geomancy, breaking formations, Qimen Dunjia, and tracing veins.
While making up for one of his major disadvantages, it also helps him continue to improve his main profession of cultivation, thus playing a supporting role in his practice.
Days passed by.
As more detailed information about the Earth Spirit Fruit became available, Wang Yu understood why Wei Hao wasn't in a hurry at all.
It turns out that they were trapped by the local tyrant of Yunling Prefecture, the He family of Luofu Mountain, a top-tier Golden Core family in Yunling who specialize in demonic sword techniques!
During this period of continuous battles, the cultivator who was carrying the Earth Spirit Fruit fled in panic and stumbled into the sword formation of Mount Luofu during the pursuit. He died, but left behind his storage bag.
certainly.
There are also rumors that this person was the lover of one of the female cultivators of the He family, and that he went there to seek protection.
However, since the person was gone, no one discussed the joke anymore, and the Earth Spirit Fruit remained highly sought after.
The He family of Luofu Mountain wanted to monopolize all the Earth Spirit Fruits, but before they could, they were overtaken by the cultivators chasing them from behind.
This group consisted almost entirely of Core Formation cultivators, some of whom were independent cultivators, while others came from local forces in Yunling Prefecture. Among them were several peak Core Formation cultivators from the border of Youzhou.
The two sides are locked in a stalemate, neither side is allowed to enter the sword formation to retrieve their storage bags. It is said that they are fighting each other every day, and so far no one has died.
They said they needed to discuss and come up with a distribution plan.
Wang Yu was getting anxious. The longer it dragged on, the farther the news would spread, and the more competitors there would be. People on Luofu Mountain must understand this simple truth as well.
But two fists can't fight four hands, let alone ten or twenty hands!
How can one clan of Core Formation cultivators fight against so many Core Formation cultivators? Even if they wanted to stall, they might not be able to. Once the numbers are significantly outnumbered, they will inevitably be overwhelmed.
This was the opportunity Wei Hao had been waiting for.
Fifteen days after arriving at Wanglong City.
The true essence spiritual item that Wang Yu had been longing for, the [Purple Gold Peach], was finally in place. There were eleven of them, and each peach could increase the upper limit of true essence by one hundred drops.
It is comparable to a top-grade second-tier elixir.
"Junior Brother Wang, how is it? Are you satisfied?"
"Satisfied, of course I'm satisfied."
Looking at this plate of peaches, each one is plump and juicy, with a rose-red color all over and a purplish-gold tip. The rich aroma of the fruit is mouthwatering.
but.
Wang Yu pointed out: "Brother Wei, why are there eleven?"
Upon hearing this...
Wei Hao laughed and said, "Junior Brother Wang, since you are willing to give me such a top-grade zombie as the Demon Corpse, this extra one is a return gift for your trust."
"If I am alive after the battle of Zhuyue Prefecture ends, I will definitely get to know your Guiling City better."
"No problem, no problem."
This shows they value him. With a Nascent Soul Ancestor in the Wei Clan, they have some influence. After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Wang Yu went into seclusion again.
Eleven purple-gold peaches are enough for him to climb to the next level.
After entering the meditation room that Wei Hao had prepared for him, Wang Yu wiped the peach and took a bite.
Abundant with spiritual energy and juicy with abundant juice.
The first bite is filled with the sweet aroma of peaches, crisp and refreshing. It is not only a spiritual food that enhances one's true energy, but also a rare delicacy.
He devoured the purple-gold peach in just over ten seconds, leaving the pit behind, though it would be difficult to grow the same kind of purple-gold peach tree.
It can be planted in the Guiling City Lord's Mansion, so that there will be another kind of spirit peach to enjoy. He has always been thrifty and hardworking and is reluctant to waste anything.
During the refining process, Wang Yu discovered that the perfected third-tier cultivation technique also greatly enhanced the refining process.
It was much easier to refine than top-grade elixirs, but it was completely digested within a day.
"That means it only takes ten days to increase one thousand drops of true essence. These second-generation families are really rich. With such top-level resources, it's no wonder that one or two of them broke through so quickly."
Thinking of this, Wang Yu pictured the Three Young Masters of Ni Ling in his mind. Given their status, they shouldn't lack such true essence medicines.
The card would only get stuck at the third, sixth, or ninth level, not the fourth level... and Zhuo Shouqing was indeed showing his fourth level of Foundation Establishment cultivation.
Can the cultivation of accumulating true essence be blocked?
He always felt that the other party was hiding something from him, from Zuo Qiuming and Yu Xing.
"Since things have come to this, let's eat the peaches first."
And so it was.
Eleven days passed in the blink of an eye.
"—Ninth level of Foundation Establishment!"
After devouring all the purple-gold peaches in one go, Wang Yu spent eleven days refining them without moving, and the results were gratifying.
With the help of this peach.
His true essence increased by another 1,100 drops, surpassing his efforts over the past six years. Thinking about this, he felt a little bittersweet.
With a total of 6150 drops of true essence, we've entered the final sprint stage, which is also the longest stretch of the journey.
By increasing the amount of True Essence to 9999 drops, one can reach the peak of Foundation Establishment and condense the [Sea of True Essence] to begin the process of Core Formation.
Normally, it will take a long time.
If there are opportunities, that's another matter.
As soon as he pushed open the stone door to the secret chamber, Wang Yu looked up at the sky.
"Third-tier lightning tribulation? It's a demonic corpse!"
(Traditional, slow-paced family-based gameplay, no system panel)
Since the cultivation world is so dangerous, we who have no background or exceptional talent...
People should keep a low profile, stay calm and take things slowly!
If a thousand years later,
Clan leader, someone in the Song family has reached the Foundation Establishment stage.
What's the panic? This person has ordinary spiritual roots. His success in establishing his foundation is merely due to luck.
I feel a little better.
If a thousand years later
Sect Leader, someone in the Song family has reached the Core Formation stage.
Hmm! Although that kid from the Song family has had some fortuitous encounters, his cultivation talent is only average.
Dan's success was nothing more than a fluke; there's no need to make such a fuss.
And if a thousand years later,
Ancestor, that brat from the Song family has broken through...
What a brat! He has no manners. From now on, he should address him as Old Ancestor Song…
