Chapter 208 Soul-eating Corpse
"Nonsense! Naturally, this helmsman knows that he cannot sit still and wait for death, but now the entire Yinzhong Mountain has been blocked by that man's formation, and there is no way to send news to the chief helm. How can we escape from this man's clutches?"
Chen Xuanhe glared at the counselor angrily.
Over the past few days, he has tried various methods, but the whole Yinzhong Mountain has been shrouded by that person's forbidden method. Now not even a fly can fly out of the mountain. If there is any change and that person notices it, I am afraid that all of them here will People also live to the end.
"Captain, calm down and listen to your subordinates."
The counselor did not take Chen Xuanhe's anger to heart, but showed a somewhat sinister and cunning look.
Chen Xuanhe's face condensed slightly when he heard this, and he looked at the counselor in surprise. The latter chuckled twice and said: "Of course the message cannot be sent, but has the helmsman forgotten the man in the ghost forest?"
Hearing this, not only Chen Xuanhe's expression changed slightly, but also the other counselors were suddenly startled, looking at the man with wide eyes in disbelief.
"You mean..."
Chen Xuanhe squinted his eyes, apparently thinking of what the counselor was referring to.
Everyone also looked a little unnatural, as if what the counselor mentioned was something taboo.
But this person smiled indifferently, nodded towards Chen Xuanhe, and said: "I believe you have guessed, Captain, that this subordinate means the one who released the ghost forest. I think someone with this position must be powerful." Can compete with the man who took over the Soul Refining Tomb."
At this point, a chill flashed in the counselor's eyes, and he said in a low voice: "There is even a possibility of someone being able to kill this person. As long as this person dies, the crisis in our Yinzhong Mountain will naturally be lifted."
Chen Xuanhe and others' expressions changed.
But after the counselor finished speaking, everyone fell silent, as if weighing the pros and cons of this man's proposal.
After his eyes flickered for a while, Chen Xuanhe said gloomily: "But that one in the forest that you all have seen before. Although it is very powerful, it is difficult to control after all... If we let it out, what if it can't even control us?" Wouldn’t it be difficult to deal with it?”
The counselor pondered for a moment, and after thinking for a while, he said with cold eyes: "Master, don't worry, as long as the person in the ghost forest can kill the person in the Soul Refining Tomb, the restriction here will be automatically lifted. If the situation gets out of control, We can also immediately send a message to the chief helmsman, and as soon as the master helmsman arrives, the situation will naturally be back under our control. "
When everyone heard this, their eyes lit up and they nodded in agreement.
Chen Xuanhe half-squinted his eyes and didn't speak for a while, as if he was considering the pros and cons.
After a long time, he took a long breath and said gloomily: "Everyone must think clearly. Although the strength of the master in the ghost forest is comparable to that of the master in the later stage of foundation building, once he is released, my Yin Tomb branch will also be destroyed." It is very likely that this will cause a catastrophe..."
All the counselors lowered their eyes, whispering to each other.
"Master, there is no other way to deal with the situation except this." The counselor who proposed the suggestion said with a sinister look on his face: "If we really can't control it by then, we can send the low-level disciples in the branch to the helmsman." As long as we can preserve our strength, the Yin Tomb Branch will not be destroyed."
"That makes sense." Chen Xuanhe nodded slightly and said with a cold look on his face: "Sacrifice the few and preserve the many. Naturally, there must be a choice at the critical moment. This is how the matter will proceed..."
After a pause, he continued: "However, the soul-refining tomb has a profound humanistic practice. The phantom appeared with spiritual consciousness that day, which made my Yin tomb branch tremble up and down. I am afraid that my cultivation has reached the late stage of foundation building. Entering the ghost forest must be done." Keep it secret and must not let it be discovered, otherwise disaster will happen in an instant.”
"Yes, I'll understand later."
All the counselors looked solemn and ready to perform their duties after saying this.
"Wait a minute."
At this time, Chen Xuanhe stopped everyone again and said: "After all, the one in the ghost forest is not like us. You must be careful when you go there. If necessary... you can bring one or two low-level disciples with you for him to devour."
Everyone looked shocked, but didn't say much. They nodded one by one and left each other.
Chen Xuanhe was soon the only one left in the hall. He raised his head and looked somewhere on the mountain, with a few strange colors passing through his eyes.
After a moment, he looked back at the Soul Refining Tomb with a ferocious look on his face. Then he flicked his sleeves and robe and left the place quickly.
…
Cultivation is lonely and miserable, and I don’t know how long it will take.
In the soul refining tomb, the faint green light shone, and Ye Chunyang's expression was slightly profound.
This place was originally filled with the evil souls of evil ghosts. After Ye Chunyang's salvation, the evil spirit was significantly reduced. All that was left was the cold and cold corpse fire energy, which flickered in and out of the cave. Looking closer, Quite strange.
Opening his eyes, he perceived it with his spiritual consciousness for a while, and then some joy flashed across his face.
Then he calculated with his fingers and nodded secretly.
Today is the forty-sixth day of the corpse refining ceremony, and it only takes three more days to complete it.
After such a long period of tempering, the spiritual power of the corpse of the Boneless Old Demon is also steadily recovering. Now it seems that it has reached 60 to 70% of the cultivation level it had during his lifetime.
If this continues, it will only take the forty-ninth day for this corpse to truly take shape.
At this time, Ye Chunyang seemed to have thought of something, and his spiritual consciousness quickly extended out of the cave. He carefully examined the surroundings of Yinzhong Mountain and found that there was nothing strange before withdrawing his spiritual consciousness.
"It seems that Chen Xuanhe is still keeping his peace and did not go down the mountain without authorization, otherwise everything here will be spread."
Ye Chunyang murmured softly.
Although he was always paying attention to the movements of Yinzhong Mountain when he was refining the corpse puppet, he still strengthened a layer of forbidden magic for safety. And for safety reasons, after the corpse puppet was refined, he had to perform a soul refining technique on Chen Xuanhe and his group to erase everyone's memory to prevent this matter from falling into the ears of others.
Thinking of this, he stopped thinking about it, gathered his luck and continued to refine the corpse puppet.
Now it has come to the most critical moment. Whether it will succeed depends on these last three days. There must be no carelessness.
However, just when his mind was just entering into concentration, a flash of lightning suddenly flashed in his eyes.
With a snort, his body suddenly flew into the air and disappeared from the spot.
At the same time, the stone platform under his seat made several explosions, and the ground cracked with several hideous cracks.
A sinister and chilling breath quickly spread from the ground.
Ye Chunyang's pupils shrank, and he looked at the cracked stone platform.
There were several piercing sounds of "bang bang" and "bang bang", and a skinny arm suddenly stretched out from the ground.
There was a loud bang!
The skinny hand grabbed upwards, and the ground suddenly cracked. A strong gale came and filled the entire soul refining tomb.
Ye Chunyang was shocked and immediately used a light shield to protect his body.
Then there were several roars that were not human, and a figure seven feet tall with a strange fork in hand appeared in front of him.
This person was half human and half ghost, with dry wrinkled skin all over his body. Like a zombie, his eyes emitted a dark green light, filled with gloomy evil spirit. As soon as he appeared, his two grim eyes locked onto Ye Chunyang.
Ye Chunyang's eyes flashed with chills. He stared at the evil creature for a while, and then he remembered a strange book he had read. His face suddenly darkened, and he said in a low voice: "It's actually a soul-eating corpse..."
The soul-eating corpse is different from the corpse puppet. It is a real zombie transformed from a corpse.
Because it absorbs the resentment of ghosts for many years, it has the most evil breath in the world. It is a monster that only knows how to devour and has no consciousness. Whenever it smells the human body, it will attack unscrupulously.
Moreover, the longer the soul-eating corpse exists, the stronger its ghost power is, and it is not controlled by anyone.
The evil spirit in front of him is awe-inspiring. According to Ye Chunyang's judgment, it is probably a demon corpse of no less than two hundred years.
"There is such a demon here, could it be..." Ye Chunyang felt cold in his heart.
Before coming to Yinzhong Mountain, he had already surveyed the place clearly, and had not found this soul-eating corpse. It suddenly appeared at this moment, and there must be something strange about it, and it is most likely related to Chen Xuanhe.
It seems that Chen Xuanhe feels that he has lived too long and wants to die...
Ye Chunyang narrowed his eyes and stared coldly at the soul-eating corpse.
After years of accumulation of evil spirits, this beast may be quite difficult to deal with, but this is the critical moment of the corpse-refining ceremony, and it must not be disturbed by it, otherwise it will fail.
"Roar! Roar!"
While Ye Chunyang was thinking, the soul-eating corpse let out a strange roar, and the low nasal sound shocked the ghost-refining tomb, and the chilling evil spirit spread like a dark cloud.
Without waiting for Ye Chunyang to make any move, the beast suddenly arched its body and rushed towards him like an arrow from a string, stabbing fiercely with the strange fork in its hand.
With a swish.
The evil spirit roared, and the sound of ghosts crying and wolves howling continued. The gravel where Ye Chunyang was was blown away, and his figure was shaken back several feet away.
But now Ye Chunyang has reached the late stage of foundation building, and his cultivation is different from the past. After a slight shock, he fled from the spot, and the ancient treasure golden mace swelled up in the wind, and chopped down fiercely.
With a loud "clang", the golden mace hit the strange fork, and Ye Chunyang's arm was numb.
This beast was not only not beaten back, but also took a step forward. The strange fork suddenly stabbed and went straight to Ye Chunyang's chest.
Ye Chunyang's face changed slightly, and he slapped the Qiankun bag with his palm. The floating bead flashed and the figure suddenly disappeared. When he appeared again, he was behind the other party. The golden mace suddenly stabbed violently, and the speed was so fast that it was not a millimeter off.
But the next moment, Ye Chunyang's face was filled with disbelief. With the sharpness of the golden mace, it stabbed the soul-eating corpse, but it only produced a few sparks and could not move forward at all.
Ye Chunyang felt strange in his heart. This beast was actually invulnerable to swords and guns.
At the same time, the soul-eating corpse roared, turned around suddenly, and threw the strange fork at Ye Chunyang's forehead. When it left his hand, it actually emitted bursts of thunder and lightning, as if it was going to stare Ye Chunyang to death in mid-air.
However, at this time, Ye Chunyang's face showed a bit of strangeness, and the golden mace was also raised to the sky, which shook the strange fork away from a distance. Then he quickly put his hands together, formed a mysterious seal, and hit the monster fiercely.
With a few strange "puff puff" sounds, the soul-eating corpse paused, and green flames spread all over its body. Green smoke came out of its seven holes, and an unpleasant stench was emitted.
It turned out that Ye Chunyang used the corpse fire in the corpse refining technique on this beast.
