Chapter 323 Harvest [Subscription Request]

"Thank you for your help, I will never forget this kindness!"

In the sky, when the thin and tall middle-aged man was cut into two pieces by the red flying sword, Zhou Chun looked at the corpse that was falling rapidly because of the death of its master, and hurriedly bowed to the middle-aged man with a long beard to express his gratitude.

Unlike the contracted spirit beasts of immortal cultivators, the refined corpses refined by the Corpse Demon Sect monks will lose their consciousness after their death and become truly dead objects.

However, it is said that the Corpse Demon Cult has another secret technique that can allow the corpse of its master to regain a faint consciousness after his death and continue to fight for the Corpse Demon Cult.

It is said that the Corpse Demon Cult's army of corpse refining came about in this way.

But at least now the refined corpse can no longer pose any threat to Zhou Chun.

At the same time, after seeing the refined corpse fall to the ground without any movement, the Fire God Jackal also returned to Zhou Chun.

The scarlet in its eyes disappeared at some point, and its eyes became clear again.

When the middle-aged man with a long beard heard Zhou Chun's words of thanks, he immediately stopped smiling and turned to Zhou Chun, waving his hand and saying, "You are too polite, Taoist friend. With your ability, you will definitely be able to get away safely even without Zhao."

At this point, he continued in a low voice: "Besides, if we really want to talk about it, it is Zhao who should thank you. If it weren't for your help today, Zhao would not have the opportunity to kill the evildoers of the Corpse Demon Cult and avenge my dead relatives!"

After hearing what he said, Zhou Chun felt relieved.

Since he has never taken credit for anything, it is unlikely that he will turn against me.

Just to be cautious, Zhou Chun immediately said, "It is certainly worth celebrating that the senior has been avenged, but the death of a disciple of the Corpse Demon Sect here will probably cause quite a stir soon. We'd better leave as soon as possible."

"You are right, fellow Daoist. The Corpse Demon Sect is very powerful and we cannot fight it head-on."

The middle-aged man with a long beard nodded slightly, then raised his hand and waved it. The red flying sword rolled up a ball of sword light and flew back with the remains of the dead thin and tall middle-aged man.

He looked at the two pieces of corpse in front of him, and after a moment's hesitation, he said to Zhou Chun, "This beast was killed by me and my Taoist friend. The remains on his body should be divided equally between the two of us. What do you think?"

Hearing his words, Zhou Chun immediately shook his head and said, "Senior, you are too polite. If it weren't for your help, I would be in danger of losing my life. Besides, you were the one who killed the man. How dare I share the spoils with you!"

It's not that Zhou Chun is being aloof on purpose, but that he really doesn't want to get involved in any trouble.

Although the middle-aged man with a long beard in front of him seemed easy to talk to, Zhou Chun didn't even know his name. How could he judge his character based on just one encounter?

What if the other party's words were just a test? If he foolishly agreed to it, he might arouse the other party's murderous intent.

Another important reason is that Zhou Chun did not want to attract the attention of the Corpse Demon Cult because of his momentary greed.

However, the middle-aged man with a long beard seemed to have read his mind and asked directly, "Fellow Daoist, are you worried that if you take the things, the Corpse Demon Cult will know that you killed someone?"

After asking, without waiting for Zhou Chun's response, he smiled faintly and said, "If that's the case, Daoist friend, you don't have to do this. Zhao can give Daoist friends the spirit coins and other spirit materials in this beast's storage bag. I guarantee that Daoist friends will not be discovered that today's incident is related to Daoist friends because of these things!"

Now Zhou Chun was at a loss for words.

He stared at the middle-aged man with a long beard in a daze, and couldn't believe that the other party was really so good.

However, my little thoughts have already been seen through by the other party. If I still deny or refuse at this time, it will seem too hypocritical. I don’t know how to answer for a moment.

"Fellow Daoist, there is no need to worry. Zhao and the Corpse Demon Sect have an irreconcilable blood feud. Any cultivator who is hostile to the Corpse Demon Sect is Zhao's friend. Zhao will never let his friends suffer any loss!"

The middle-aged man with a long beard once again saw through Zhou Chun's thoughts and directly expressed his attitude.

Then he paused and continued in a low voice: "Of course, if you really don't want anything, then I won't force you. I just hope you don't underestimate my generosity!"

He had said so much, and Zhou Chun knew that if he didn't say anything, he would really offend others.

So he nodded slightly and said, "Since Senior Zhao is so generous, I will accept it with shameless courtesy."

"Hahaha, fellow Daoist, you are straightforward. Then please follow me. We will go to the market in Jingguo to take shelter first, and then open this storage bag to see what's inside!"

The middle-aged man with a long beard laughed and immediately told his plan.

Hearing his words, Zhou Chun felt completely relieved.

Since we are going to Yasukuni Shrine, there is nothing to worry about.

His Zhou family is now quite famous throughout Jingguo. If he goes to Jingguo, he has the Fire God Jackal by his side, so he is not afraid of any tricks played by this middle-aged man with a long beard.

He agreed immediately.

So the middle-aged man with a long beard immediately shot out a ball of flames to burn the thin and tall middle-aged man's body into ashes, and then placed a seal on the corpse on the ground, put it into a sarcophagus, and put it into his storage bag.

Judging from his skilled appearance, it seems that this is not the first time he has dealt with the disciples of the Corpse Demon Cult in this way.

After cleaning up the battlefield, the middle-aged man with a long beard led the way and left the scene with Zhou Chun.

On the way to Yasukuni Shrine, Zhou Chun also learned the origin of the name of the middle-aged man with a long beard.

According to what he said, the man was a disciple of Feiyun Sword Sect, a sect of immortal cultivation in Feng State that was destroyed by the Corpse Demon Sect decades ago. His name was Zhao Xin.

Decades ago, the Feiyun Sword Sect, like the Sanjue Sect, stood on the enemy side of the Corpse Demon Sect. However, it did not have the same luck as the Sanjue Sect and was directly destroyed by the Corpse Demon Sect. Most of its high-ranking members were turned into refined corpses by the Corpse Demon Sect.

However, Zhao Xin and some disciples of Feiyun Sword Sect managed to escape from the mountain gate through a secret passage before the sect was wiped out.

Originally, these people should have chosen a place to continue the Feiyun Sword Sect's tradition, but unfortunately most of them were frightened by the powerful strength of the Corpse Demon Sect. After escaping, they just wanted to divide their things and disband, each seeking their own way out.

Only Zhao Xin and a few others, who deeply hated the Corpse Demon Cult for killing their teachers, relatives and friends, wanted only to revive their sect and take revenge on the Corpse Demon Cult.

Today, Zhao Xin happened to be on his way to Jinchangfang City when he saw the battle between Zhou Chun and the thin middle-aged man. Then he came up with the idea of ​​seeking revenge with the help of Zhou Chun's power.

Of course, these are just Zhao Xin’s one-sided words, and Zhou Chun has no way to verify them now.

Therefore, he did not reveal his true identity and continued to deal with the other party using the pseudonym of Cangzhou Han Yuan.

In this way, the two of them traveled for two days before arriving at Xianyunfang City in Jingguo Yunzhou.

Because the presence of the Fire God Jackal was too conspicuous, Zhou Chun put it away before entering the market.

Although his reputation is well-known in Yunzhou, he has not made a public appearance here for many years, so there are not many people in Yunzhou who really know him. So he is not afraid of being easily recognized.

After entering the market, the two of them went to the inn and booked two rooms to stay in.

Then Zhao Xin began to break the spiritual mark of the thin and middle-aged man in the storage bag.

Zhou Chun also took the opportunity to count the gains from the battle with Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu died in his hands, and all his belongings came into his hands, including the silver-white embroidered handkerchief that surprised him, and the black wine pot.

There was no time to examine it carefully before, but now Zhou Chun took the embroidered handkerchief in his hand and observed it carefully, and found that it was surprisingly soft and silky to the touch, just like high-quality silk.

He originally thought that the material of this thing should be some kind of spiritual gold thread.

"Given the hardness and toughness of those silver threads, if they were really spit out by some creature, I'm afraid that thing must be at least a third-level monster, or even a fourth-level monster!"

Zhou Chun was secretly amazed in his heart, not knowing whether this magic weapon was obtained by Zhou Yu from the Zhou family or by chance.

All in all, this is definitely a very rare and exquisite magic weapon, and its value may be even higher than the golden gourd magic weapon that he used to kill Zhou Yu.

The golden gourd magic weapon is called the [Golden Gourd]. It can absorb a large amount of gold energy in advance and then turn it into a golden rainbow and shoot it out.

Although the golden rainbow was extremely powerful, it could only hit once.

Moreover, if you want this magic weapon to work again, you have to inject a large amount of high-quality gold energy into it.

During the process of cultivation, Zhou Chun needs to absorb a certain amount of gold energy. In the past, the gold energy he used for cultivation was purchased from Cangzhou.

The gold energy consumed when this magic weapon is used once is enough for him to practice for two or three years, so although such a magic weapon is powerful, it is not very practical.

In comparison, Zhou Chun actually liked the embroidered handkerchief in his hand more, and he immediately decided to use it as his regular magic weapon in the future.

As for the black wine jug magic weapon, Zhou Chun studied it for a while and then put it into the storage bag.

This item is also a good magic weapon, but it is not suitable for him to use because it is a magic weapon that tends to be defensive.

Afterwards, Zhou Chun opened Zhou Yu's storage bag again.

The result was just as he expected. There was indeed some toad venom packed in a jade bottle.

Zhou Yu stole the black jade toad for more than ten years and obtained a lot of toad venom from it.

However, she did not know how to make spiritual incense with toad venom, so most of the toad venom could only be preserved temporarily and could not be used, so she kept these things on her body.

Apart from these useful toad venom, Zhou Chun did not find any other valuable things in Zhou Yu's storage bag. The most valuable thing was more than three thousand spirit coins.

On the contrary, Zhou Chun found several good first-grade magic weapons and thousands of spirit coins in her grandson's storage bag.

After counting everything, Zhou Chun concentrated on meditating to recover his magic power.

After Zhou Chun had been meditating for almost two hours, the warning formation outside his room was suddenly triggered by someone, so he had to stop meditating early and get up to open the door.

"I apologize for disturbing Fellow Daoist Han's practice. I have already cracked the storage bag of the Corpse Demon Cult thief. Please check it for me, Fellow Daoist Han."

Outside the room, when Zhao Xin saw the door open, he first apologized to Zhou Chun and then explained his purpose.

"Senior Zhao, you are too polite. Please take a seat inside."

Zhou Chun politely invited the other party to sit down, then took the storage bag from Zhao Xin and checked the contents.

As a Purple Mansion Stage cultivator of the Corpse Demon Sect, the thin middle-aged man naturally had a lot of things in his storage bag.

However, many of them are related to raising and refining corpses, and are not useful to normal cultivators at all.

But after a careful inspection, Zhou Chun found something that surprised him.

He opened a jade box and found hundreds of gray-black insect eggs inside. If he was not mistaken, these were exactly the same "corpse moth" eggs he had seen in the underground Yibaohui in Jinchangfang City.

"Oh, they are actually the eggs of the carrion moth. It seems that the reason why this beast left the Corpse Demon Sect's mountain gate was for this matter!"

Zhao Xin looked at the insect eggs in the jade box in Zhou Chun's hand and said with surprise.

Judging from his tone, it seemed that he had not checked the contents of the storage bag before.

However, Zhou Chun did not dwell on this point, but looked at him and asked, "Senior Zhao, do you also know the eggs of the carrion moth?"

"Of course I know. Now that the eggs of the carrion moth have been taken out and spread everywhere, someone like Zhao who has a blood feud with the Corpse Demon Cult will naturally pay attention to this matter."

Zhao Xin said this with a gloating look, "Although I don't know which force did this, I have to say it was done brilliantly. This attack hit the Corpse Demon Cult's weak spot, forcing them to jump up and down!"

"It is said that the Corpse Demon Cult is not only actively tracking down and destroying the carrion moths, but is also hunting down and killing those monks who are proficient in the art of controlling insects in order to prevent the carrion moths from spreading in Feng Country!"

Is the Corpse Demon Cult still hunting and killing insect cultivators?

Zhou Chun's expression changed. After hearing what Zhao Xin said, he seemed to understand why the thin middle-aged man wanted to kill him.

This also made him secretly alert, and he planned to warn his tribesmen after returning not to show off their insect repelling skills in public easily.

Before the situation in Feng Kingdom became clear, if the Zhou family revealed that they were proficient in the art of expelling insects, and this got to the ears of the Corpse Demon Cult, it would be very bad.

After all, the Zhou family was forced to come to Jingguo because of the Corpse Demon Cult, so it would not be too easy to put the blame on the Zhou family.

So he quickly pushed the jade box in his hand and said, "Then I will not fight with Senior Zhao for this item. This item can be more useful in Senior Zhao's hands."

Zhao Xin waved his hand and said, "There's no need to do that. I see there are hundreds of eggs. You and I can just split them in half."

"This……"

Zhou Chun didn't want to take this hot thing, but was afraid of causing Zhao Xin to misunderstand.

After some hesitation, he nodded slightly and said, "Thank you very much, Senior Zhao."

However, he thought that he had already killed a Purple Mansion Stage cultivator from the Corpse Demon Sect. If Zhao Xin really wanted to harm him, there was no need for him to go to so much trouble.

Later, faced with the more than 15,000 spirit coins in the storage bag, Zhou Chun was only willing to take 5,000 no matter what Zhao Xin said. He refused to accept the rest and firmly stated that these were enough for him.

Seeing how cautious he was, Zhao Xin didn't say anything more and just put away those things and the storage bag.

After putting away these things that Zhou Chun was extremely afraid of, he also shook his head and said to Zhou Chun: "In fact, the Corpse Demon Cult is not as scary as you think, Fellow Daoist Han. There are ways to crack their corpse refining. The corpse moth is just one of the methods. Fellow Daoist Han, you should be able to see the rest soon!"

From what he said, it seemed like he knew some secrets.

But Zhou Chun didn't ask any more questions. He just said a few perfunctory words and then said goodbye and left.
