Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

Now that I think about it, it must be the lingering aura refined by the Yellow Springs Undying Shadow Fire over a thousand years.

Wen Jiu tried to control the East Spring Undying Bone to move forward, while using the Corpse Fate Technique for divination. The result was immediately a minor misfortune. Even with the Li Long Dragon Bone at hand, it was the same result.

When Wen Jiu abandoned this idea and started moving towards the side of the Black Pool, the divination sign returned to a minor fortune.

"Sure enough, the end must be the Nine Abysses..." Wen Jiu looked deeply but saw and felt nothing.

Yet he had the feeling that the abyss was gazing back at him from afar, causing him to quickly avert his eyes after a few more glances.

"Don’t come over here!"

The voice of the Nine Corpse Infant Fetuses rang out again.

The dark impact intensified once more, causing the Yellow Springs Undying Shadow Fire atop the Black Pool to flicker wildly.

The consumption of Jinhua Evil-Slaying Divine Thunder within the Li Long Dragon Bone also began to multiply, further confirming Wen Jiu’s suspicion that something was indeed on the side of the Black Pool.

"Don’t come over!"

"You’re doomed, you’re doomed!"

As the voice of the Nine Corpse Infant Fetuses roared, the East Spring Undying Bone’s steps suddenly stopped.

He saw the Nine Corpse Infant Fetuses.

Saw the black child’s body hovering above the Black Pool, headless, covered in centipede-like pale secret patterns. Its body was so plump that all nine heads were crammed into its upper body.

Faces, clear and distinct, emerged from its chest, armpits, back, and belly. They squeezed and even bit each other, angrily roaring at the East Spring Undying Bone despite their anger.

"Is this the Nine Corpse Infant Fetuses?"

Even though Wen Jiu had witnessed many bloody and bizarre scenes, this sight still gave him a slight shock.

"You’ll surely die!"

The Nine Corpse Infant Fetuses uttered a curse, afraid to advance, and instead retreated to the side of a black worm lying in the Black Pool, ignited by the Yellow Springs Undying Shadow Fire, "Mother, eat him!"

It was answered by a gurgling sound, like the wailing of someone drowning underwater....

"Mother, we are the master’s plan for thousands of years, and also the key for father to tread the Path of Extreme Evil... We cannot have any mishaps... Quickly eat him... Move, you move... Such a useless creature, I finally understand why the master wanted to kill you right after marrying you... You deserve to die, not helping the master!"

The Nine Corpse Infant Fetuses suddenly pounced on the giant black worm, tearing and ripping it with fervor. At that moment, Wen Jiu suddenly heard a transmission.

A weak and painful transmission from a woman.

"Fellow Daoist..."

"Save me..."

It was from the black worm.

Demons cannot use Divine Sense Communication, as they lack a Divine Sense, only demon perception, and Divine Sense is unique to the Human Race. The fact that this giant black worm could use Divine Sense Communication proved that she was essentially human.

"Who are you?" Wen Jiu controlled the East Spring Undying Bone to respond via transmission.

The answer came immediately. The giant black worm rolled continuously within the Black Pool, repeatedly begging the East Spring Undying Bone for help, "Fellow Daoist... I am of the Wandering Soul Bright Void Domain... the sole daughter of Celestial Sword True Monarch... Hu Yue... As long as you save me... my father will surely reward you..."

Wandering Soul Bright Void Domain?

Isn’t that the Floating Domain where the Ten Thousand Corpses Sect is located?

Wen Jiu did not answer, nor did he care about the Nine Corpse Infant Fetuses; he only listened to the giant black worm’s cries for help, "My father, Celestial Sword True Monarch... was once the leading Nascent Soul Sword Cultivator in the midstream of Heaven-Reaching River... If you are willing to pass this message to my father, he will also reward you generously... That Soulless True Monarch has refined me into the Yellow Springs Corpse Mother, nurturing the Nine Corpse Infant Fetuses for thousands of years. If you don’t save me... when Soulless True Monarch returns, he will feed me to the Nine Corpse Infant Fetuses, and once it devours the Thousand-Li Soul-Sealing Extreme Resentful Corpse, the Nine-Child Corpse will be complete... You will end up like me... But my father can help us, Soulless True Monarch is not a match for my father..."

The giant black worm kept pleading for help, trying to persuade Wen Jiu to assist her, but Wen Jiu remained unmoved.

Because he was not a good person.

Helping others is something he prefers to leave to others.

He only wanted to see what benefits awaited him.

"Fellow Daoist... The Nine-Child Corpse is crucial to Soulless True Monarch’s Path of Extreme Evil... Once the Nine-Child Corpse is complete, his Path of Extreme Evil will reach its pinnacle... Then he will have a chance to covet above the Nascent Soul... so he will not let anyone who knows about the Spiritless Death Secret Realm Cave Heaven survive..." The giant black worm still refused to give up, but this time it shook Wen Jiu.

Path of Extreme Evil?

Above Nascent Soul?

Even though he was still far from reaching this stage, Wen Jiu knew that entering the Nascent Soul was already as difficult as ascending to heaven when following the Heterodox Dao.

And above Nascent Soul, it must be even harder. A Heaven-Reaching Outer Dao Nascent Soul might at least give him hope, though it wasn’t a certainty. And what if this Hu Yue was telling the truth?

So, to be cautious, he resolved to destroy them all!

The Nine Corpse Infant Fetuses.

And this Hu Yue.

Having made up his mind, Wen Jiu kept getting closer without any further suppression on the Li Long Dragon Bone.

Boom—

Hundreds of miles became a Sea of Thunder. The Nine Corpse Infant Fetuses, which was still tearing and ripping at the Yellow Springs Corpse Mother, screamed and kept retreating, but just as it wanted to withdraw, the giant black worm leaped up and wrapped itself tightly around it, seemingly determined to perish together with the Nine Corpse Infant Fetuses.

"Mother!"

"You’ll die horribly!"

"Die horribly... Ah... Ah..."

"Mother, your child was wrong... your child was wrong... please let go of your child... Ah..."

Amid the Nine Corpse Infant Fetuses’ harrowing screams, the giant black worm wrapped even tighter, while the Jinhua Evil-Slaying Divine Thunder in the Li Long Dragon Bone raged wildly. Time flew by, an hour, five hours... a day, five days. Half of the Jinhua Evil-Slaying Divine Thunder in the Li Long Dragon Bone was consumed, unlike the inexhaustible claim of Longteng Liyi.

But on the tenth day, the giant black worm exploded with a bang, and the Nine Corpse Infant Fetuses rolled out, its aura having diminished to the extreme, like a waning candle ready to extinguish at any time.

And that giant black worm, surprisingly, began to regroup in the Sea of Thunder, albeit very slowly.

Wen Jiu immediately used the Corpse Fate Technique for divination.

A great fortune!

The divination result surprised Wen Jiu.

Soon after, another transmission followed.

"Fellow Daoist... The Nine Corpse Infant Fetuses has long been fused with the Yellow Springs Undying Shadow Fire, injected with an immense amount of karma from the entire Ten Thousand Corpses Sect where not a single living being remains, it’s already indestructible... The Jinhua Evil-Slaying Divine Thunder cannot completely kill it, but now is its weakest moment in a thousand years... Think fast... or we’ll all die..." The transmission carried a hint of urgency amid weakness.

As soon as Wen Jiu thought of the great fortune divination, the Spirit-Extinguishing Corpse Qi immediately surged forth, wrapping around the Nine Corpse Infant Fetuses.

The Nine Corpse Infant Fetuses tried to struggle, but after being engulfed by a large amount of Spirit-Extinguishing Corpse Qi, it became utterly still in moments.

But to Wen Jiu’s delight, the Nine Corpse Infant Fetuses could be refined by the Spirit-Extinguishing Corpse Qi, enhancing the bloodline of the East Spring Undying Bone. The help was so immense that even without checking daily calculations, Wen Jiu could clearly feel it.

Furthermore, Wen Jiu could sense changes in the East Spring Undying Bone’s bloodline.

Indeed.

Changes.

The bloodline of the Undying Corpse Demon was being altered, progressing towards another direction, a completely unfamiliar evolutionary path.

"Could it be, after refining this Nine Corpse Infant Fetuses, I can gain a new bloodline evolution direction?"

Despite staying composed, Wen Jiu couldn’t help but stand up suddenly with excitement, yet at that moment, a strong aura burst from within the Nine Corpse Infant Fetuses, and the East Spring Undying Bone felt as if being gazed at by the abyss.

Simultaneously, at the landing place of an endless Floating Domain upstream of the Heaven-Reaching River, an eyeless middle-aged cultivator suddenly stood up, staring fiercely in the direction of the lower Heaven-Reaching River, his killing intent and anger sweeping across a thousand miles.

"Who dares!"

"To ruin this old man’s Nine-Child Corpse!"

"To sabotage this old man’s Path of Extreme Evil!"

[A bit late tonight.

The home toilet leaked all day.

Helpless indeed.
