Chapter 671 - 325: Countering with a Stratagem, East Spring Water Demon
If it really works, then the Nine Nether Qi is absolutely indispensable, and I must find a way to gather more.
Relying solely on freeloading Gongyang Fu is far from enough.
"This demon cultivator is an opportunity, but it seems he doesn’t know he possesses the East Spring Water Demon Body, otherwise, he wouldn’t have joined the Dark Altar Lineage. Perhaps even other demon cultivators are unaware, let alone the high-ups of the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect."
With a slight use of the Corpse Fate Technique, Wen Jiu discovered that there aren’t many top-tier Golden Core experts involved behind him.
Just a handful, and even within the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect, they’re not top figures.
However, Wen Jiu soon felt relieved.
Because this demon cultivator has only achieved a Lower-Rank Demon Pill, reaching this level entirely thanks to the East Spring Water Demon Body. Without knowing about the East Spring Water Demon Body, anyone would judge him by the quality of his demon pill.
"In this way, it benefits me. If I can cultivate him a bit, perhaps he can become my fifth corpse." For him now, the strength of the fourth corpse or fifth corpse is already unimportant.
Special abilities are what’s crucial.
The East Spring Water Demon Body seems to fit this point, because considering crossing the Lifeless Netherworld in the Nine Abysses, even the East Spring Undying Bone’s ability to do so is unknown. Perhaps it can achieve the Undying Corpse Demon after, but in case it can’t, this demon cultivator must be kept as a failsafe, for unexpected needs.
Withdrawing his thoughts, Wen Jiu controlled the East Spring Undying Bone to maintain his cultivation at the Early Stage of Golden Core, while also releasing an Undying Demon Corpse that took on his appearance, and the "two" quietly headed towards where Zhong Qi was.
Just then, sitting cross-legged in the cave mansion while attempting a realm breakthrough, Zhong Qi suddenly opened his eyes wide, a peculiar breath emanating from his pitch-black pupils, streaming out like water and smoke.
At the same time, a Yin Array unknown when set up in his room began to tremble, emitting a disturbing noise.
"It’s here."
Zhong Qi’s gaze sharply pointed towards the direction where the East Spring Undying Bone was, which surprised Wen Jiu a bit.
The Divine Sense of the East Spring Undying Bone had long penetrated his cave mansion and landed on Zhong Qi, but currently, they were separated by seven to eight thousand miles. How could Zhong Qi’s Divine Sense possibly sense his presence, much like how a Qi Cultivator wouldn’t sense a Foundation Establishment Cultivator’s presence? Yet Zhong Qi could, though not through Divine Sense.
As the Yin Array in the mansion kept agitating, array patterns continuously appeared on it, not the usual Yin Array patterns, nor any script Wen Jiu had seen in his memories, but a more peculiar witch pattern.
A witch is also a type of heterodox path.
However, witches revere gods more, and gods are despised by everyone in the Cultivation Realm, so few practice witchcraft and follow the wizard’s path. Nonetheless, some heterodox cultivators do practice witchcraft.
Wen Jiu used the Corpse Fate Technique for divination and was quite surprised that this Yin Array was actually one that incites hatred and captures the existence that harbors murderous intent towards it. As long as one harbors murderous intent and steps within ten thousand miles, the spellcaster can see them.
"Interesting, the higher one’s cultivation, the more unique abilities they can see. It seems not going personally was the correct choice." Wen Jiu, having already openly returned to Hua Mansion, couldn’t help but sigh.
After sighing, he also dropped by the residences of Wuxinming and Gongyang Fu to deliver the gourmet food he had promised them earlier.
That’s right.
The previous visit was about this matter.
And they both already knew he liked dining, since he roamed around Donghua Immortal City daily. What else could he do besides eat and play?
"This array method can also be used, after all, the Divine Sense is not omnipotent." There are few things his true self can do, and in the future, nurturing living elixirs must definitely be left to the four corpses or five ghosts, so all he can do now is cultivate techniques.
