Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

Chapter 610: Chapter 302: Celestial Yin Qi Absorption, Yin Five Elements Earth Palace [Revised!]

However, before this, some preparations are still required. The Undying Celestial Yin Golden Core Formation Technique given by Han Tianxing is not merely a method; there are other preparations needed. The primary reason is that the Celestial Yin Qi is distributed underground and is quite dispersed. This is also why a Spirit Gathering Array needs to be set up to cultivate the Celestial Yin Demon Blood Medicine.

If one wishes to form a core, the Spirit Gathering Array is simply not enough. A Tier Three Lower Grade Spirit Gathering Array would take at least ten years to gather the Celestial Yin Qi to a concentration dense enough for core formation, even with a conservative estimate.

Using a Tier Three Middle Grade Spirit Gathering Array can cut down on some time, but it would still take another two to three years. Therefore, Wen Jiu plans to use the Celestial Yin Qi-Eating Technique from the Undying Celestial Yin Golden Core given by Han Tianxing.

This technique is not a method, does not belong to the Five Elements, nor is it of the array type. Strictly speaking, it is a demonic evil technique. Of course, by today’s standards, it is considered a demonic evil technique. However, when the Undying Celestial Yin Golden Core Formation Technique was first created, it was considered a normal technique.

Because tens of thousands of years ago, Demon Dao and demon cultivators were not so extreme. It was only after the path of murder to enhance cultivation was discovered that it gradually evolved into its current state, making it completely incompatible with the righteous path.

Thus.

The Demon Dao has become synonymous with evil.

Although the Celestial Yin Qi-Eating Technique is a demonic evil technique, like the Silencing Spell, it does not require years of cultivation. A Foundation Establishment Perfection Cultivator can practice it a few times and perform it, but it requires more caution compared to the Silencing Spell.

For example, timing.

It cannot be done during the day, as it does not align with Celestial Yin, and can only be performed after midnight.

Also, location.

A random place won’t do; it requires a Yin Five Elements Earth Palace. An Earth Palace is a natural cave formed within Celestial Yin Qi. Within these caves, Yin Five Elements Power and Yin Five Elements Objects coexist, forming a complete postnatal Celestial Yin Land.

It is worth mentioning that the Five Ghosts are also suitable for cultivation in such places. Even without the Ghost-faced Butcher, they can advance by leaps and bounds. However, it requires Tier Three Five Ghosts, as Tier Two Five Ghosts would be counterproductive.

If the location is found, one must also pay attention to the final aspect, which is the items needed for the Celestial Yin Qi-Eating Technique. Unlike worldly treasures, Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects have no tiers and are even rarer. The technique requires nine types of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects.

The nine types of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects are considered legendary items below the Golden Core, and even with enough Spirit Stones, they cannot be bought by disciples of non-major sects. However, for a Golden Core major influence, purchasing these items is very easy, especially in a big city like East Pole Immortal City, where buying these items is even more feasible.

So before the East Spring Undying Bone entered the Tier Three Middle Realm, Wen Jiu had already tasked Lu Chan with acquiring nine types of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects. As for whether it would be exposed, there’s no possibility. Perhaps the Domain Lord of the West Mountain Floating Domain might detect something, as a Golden Core Perfection would have some contact with Nascent Soul level major influences.

Of the nine types, eight have already been acquired, costing Wen Jiu nearly one million Middle-grade Spirit Stones, equivalent to one hundred million Low-grade Spirit Stones.

The last of the nine most precious Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects is called Heaven-Reaching Floating Wood.

Heaven-Reaching Floating Wood doesn’t originate from the source of the Heaven-Reaching River, but from places where Spirit Wood fell into the river during its flow. Ordinary Spirit Wood, without the protection of an array, would quickly be corroded by the Heaven-Reaching River Water and turn to ash. However, Heaven-Reaching Floating Wood is different.

They belong to the type that the Heaven-Reaching River Water cannot corrode. Any kind of Spirit Wood could potentially be preserved, purely depending on luck.

Of course.

The so-called luck is just because no one has yet discovered a pattern.

Heaven-Reaching Floating Wood has an extremely high Qi-attraction effect because it shares similarities with the origin of Celestial Yin Qi. Both are born from the Heaven-Reaching River, so under the Celestial Yin Qi-Eating Technique, its effect surpasses that of a Tier Three High-grade Spirit Gathering Array. The only drawback is that the Heaven-Reaching Floating Wood, valued at three to four hundred thousand Middle-grade Spirit Stones, becomes a consumable when used for the Celestial Yin Qi-Eating Technique.

To this, Wen Jiu can only say.

Quite extravagant!

...

While waiting for Lu Chan to acquire the Heaven-Reaching Floating Wood, Wen Jiu also searches for the Yin Five Elements Earth Palace using the Corpse Fate Technique. The Earth Palace cannot be directly divined using the Corpse Fate Technique; the reason for this is unknown to Wen Jiu, so he can only search and peel back layers area by area using the technique.

At the same time, he dispatches the Formless Demon Corpse to stealthily scout the underground of the Celestial Yin Land, searching and probing in the darkness.

Meanwhile, the conflict between the Qi and Lu families is growing increasingly intense. Although the two sides have not yet gone to war within East Pole Immortal City, outside the city, the clashes are becoming more intense and fierce.

Besides the patriarch Lu Feng holding the fort in East Pole Immortal City, all other Golden Core cultivators of the Lu family have been sent out.

The Lu family controls three Tier Three Spirit Veins and three Tier Three Yin Veins, with no less than five hundred Tier Two Spirit Veins. Disputes over Tier Two Spirit Veins are handled by vassals and subordinates, but disputes over Tier Three Spirit Veins concern the very foundation of both families and always involve Golden Core cultivators.

Of course.

These disputes don’t involve directly attacking the Tier Three Spirit Veins, as these veins typically stretch hundreds or even thousands of miles.

Instead, the two families usually target parts of the veins, looting industries born from them. Currently, the Qi family’s offensive is more aggressive. If it were just that, it wouldn’t be too bad.

Without deploying Middle Stage of Golden Core cultivators, both sides are evenly matched. The addition of Lu Chan creates some disparity, but the gap is not unbridgeable. After all, with enough Spirit Stone resources, finding Golden Core wanderers is not impossible, thus allowing for retaliation.
