Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

Chapter 604: Chapter 299: The Fall of the Divine and the Exposure of Identity

In the blink of an eye, three months passed.

Wen Jiu would control the Formless Demon Corpse to visit the He Family at the beginning of each month, still maintaining a monthly delivery of a thousand strands of Demonic Evil Qi. Whether it was He Changyi or He Qi, they repeatedly tried to give him something, probing his preferences—be it Spirit Stones, Evil Yin Spiritual Medicine, or some special Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects that enhance a Demon Cultivator’s cultivation. Without exception, these were highly valuable, worth two to three million Low-grade Spirit Stones at a time.

An Early Stage Golden Core Zhenren, without a major family’s support, would only have about that much in wealth.

Nevertheless, Wen Jiu still didn’t accept even a single Spirit Stone or Evil Yin Spiritual Medicine, though he was tempted to collect the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects. Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects are produced by nature, and can only be found; unlike Spirit Stones and Evil Yin Spiritual Medicine, they don’t carry the taint of innocent lives or karmic consequences, so accepting them wouldn’t have much impact.

Even if there were some, he could rely on the Four Corpses and Five Ghosts to withstand it, and there wouldn’t be any negative impact on his future Core Formation. However, after much hesitation, Wen Jiu still didn’t collect them and ultimately decided only to make transactions with the He Family regarding Demonic Evil Qi.

Because he truly didn’t want to have too many connections with the He Family. If they wanted to continue purchasing Demonic Evil Qi, taking something from them would make him indebted. Accepting once would lead to a second and third time, and as it accumulated, the He Family would inevitably have demands.

By then, would he still just leave like he did in Wind and Cloud Immortal City? That’s certainly unrealistic in the short term. It was quite difficult to open up a channel for purchasing Demonic Evil Qi, and leaving would mean finding another channel.

Look for Wuxinming?

Even more impossible.

Every time Wuxinming delivered the Demonic Evil Qi, he would immediately take his leave, never getting entangled with him.

Wen Jiu had reason to believe that if it weren’t for He Changyi, Wuxinming would definitely not do business with the Formless Demon Corpse posing as an Outer Hidden Demon Sect affiliate.

As for changing his disguise, it’s even more impossible. The one buying Demonic Evil Qi is only it, even a fool can guess some things. So Wen Jiu decided to maintain the status quo; other than the transaction, not to take anything from the He Family.

Within these three months, Wen Jiu also received news about the Divine Fall Mountain Range. The Lu Family and Wind and Cloud Immortal City’s Heaven-Reaching River business completely ended, initiated by the Lu Family Ancestor.

Because Commander Lin had appeared in the Divine Fall Mountain Range, bringing a large number of Spirit Suppressing Army, the Celestial River Guard completely blocked the road to the Divine Fall Mountain Range, not even letting a fly pass through.

As for what exactly happened, Lu Chan and the entire Lu Family had no knowledge, so Wen Jiu could only use the Corpse Fate Technique for divination. He divined about Pei Wuxing, Bao Tiangai, and Di Shenhan, while also spying on Lin Zhuo, one of the Spirit Suppressing Generals.

Pei Wuxing and the others were just in the Early Stage of Golden Core, without any Celestial Secret Magical Artifacts, so the Corpse Fate Technique could easily divine their recent situations. But Lin Zhuo, due to being covered by Celestial Secret Magical Artifacts, was harder to divine.

But one does not even need to think to know. Given the confirmed remnants of the Blood Demon Sect, it’s sure to alarm the high levels of the West Mountain Floating Domain Lord’s Mansion. The presence at the Golden Core Peak might also be attracted there.

After all, it’s the legacy of the Blood Demon Demon Monarch.

Due to this, the current situation in the Divine Fall Mountain Range had changed again. Lin Zhuo revealed his identity and took the Spirit Suppressing Army to take over the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks. Bao Tiangai took advantage of the situation and counter-attacked the Three Life Gates, unexpectedly driving them out of the Central Shen Yun Mountain Range within a short time, forcing them to retreat to the Far West, Far North, and Far South.

However, the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect quickly sent Golden Core powerhouses to stabilize the situation, not allowing the previous efforts of the Three Life Gates to come to naught. Of course, the most important thing was preserving the Far West and Far South.

Because since Pei Wuxing was forced to abandon the Little Demon Realm upon his departure, the powerhouses of the Three Life Gates were already certain that the Dark Evil God’s Cave Heaven also had the legacy of the Blood Phoenix Demon Monarch, just like the Celestial Extinction Ruins.

Notably, Wen Jiu during his divination discovered a familiar person.

The Celestial Left Alliance Leader.

Ku Yue.

Ku Yue had now entered the Foundation Establishment Stage and joined the Three Life Gates. Due to obtaining the complete inheritance from Celestial Extinction Mountain and refining the Celestial Extinction Ruins, he was accepted by Di Shenhan of the Three Life Gates as a disciple.

It can be said to be a meteoric rise.

However, no matter how well he did, he was ultimately just at the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment. Even if he could advance to the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment in the future, it might be three or four decades later. By then, Xu Record might not even remember such a person.

Maybe when the Divine Fall Mountain Range is no longer so chaotic, he might pass by and conveniently kill him, since Ku Yue was responsible for the deaths of many at Deadman Peak.

Wen Jiu vaguely remembered that the Elder Bai Jianxin of Deadman Peak was driven to ruin by Ku Yue, thus harboring deep hatred towards the Heterodox Dao.

Now Elder Bai Jianxin had already died in the war against the Three Life Gates, unable to avenge his family’s grudge even as he drew his last breath.

At this moment, Wen Jiu remembered another person, "Speaking of which, Bai Jianxin’s only direct disciple Wang Xianzhi is still in the Fang Family in Divine Fall Mountain Range. If revenge is to be taken, perhaps it’s more fitting for him to do it."

After a sigh, Wen Jiu put away his thoughts.

The Divine Fall Mountain Range will become increasingly chaotic, with these major powers fighting over the legacy of the Blood Phoenix Demon Monarch, surely resulting in fierce battles. One can imagine how many Foundation Establishment and Golden Core cultivators might lose their lives because of it.

"Hmm?"

"Did the Blood Phoenix Demon Monarch lay out such plans in the Divine Fall Mountain Range just to cause these forces to fight each other fiercely?"

Previously, Wen Jiu couldn’t understand why the Blood Phoenix Demon Monarch created trap after trap in the Divine Fall Mountain Range. But now, perhaps there’s this reason. Of course, it’s just a guess of his.
