Cultivating Immortality: I Can See the Script of Life

It turned out that Wan Yi had coated the Kunyuan Blade with tiger venom beforehand, and when the flying knife pierced Xiong Bi's shoulder, the tiger venom had already quietly invaded his body.

Now, the tiger poison surged within Xiong Bi's body, causing his magical power to become chaotic and his body to become weak, making it impossible for him to even continue using his escape techniques.

Xiong Bi was sweating profusely with anxiety. He hurriedly took out several antidote pills from his storage bag, stuffed them into his mouth, and desperately tried to suppress the restless magical power within his body by activating his cultivation technique.

But Wan Yi didn't give him a chance to detoxify.

Just as Xiong Bi was busy, the ground above his head suddenly exploded, sending debris flying everywhere.

A yellowish-brown throwing knife fell from the sky, aiming straight for his head.

Xiong Bi's head flew off, and his body slumped onto the ground, lifeless.

Wan Yi finally showed a satisfied smile.

"Finally done!"

"That idiot Xiong Bi really delivered himself right to our doorstep."

"That's great, two problems solved at once, and I no longer have to worry about him secretly watching me."

Wan Yi stepped forward, patted the corpse bag, and put Xiong Bi's body inside. He then took his storage bag and the corpse bag, cleaned the place up, and restored it to its original state.

Then, Wan Yi still did not leave, but hid back in the dense forest.

"Who knows if these two brothers have any other relatives or friends who might come seeking revenge?"

"Let's keep an eye on this one more time."

Wan Yi hid in the dense forest for the night. When the next morning dawned, he did not encounter any cultivators who came to investigate Xiong Bi and Xiong Fu's whereabouts. Only a few outer disciples passed by, riding their magical artifacts and flying hurriedly in the sky, not noticing anything unusual at all.

Only then did Wan Yi finally breathe a sigh of relief, and the weight in his heart was completely lifted.

With all the troubles resolved, I can finally go to the corpse-raising ground to refine puppets in peace.

The Tiger Poison Gu has done a great job this time. We'll feed it more Tiger Demon Blood later and reward it properly.

……

Half an hour later, Wan Yi caught a glimpse of the corpse-raising ground.

In the distance, a hazy gray fog enveloped the entire area.

A chilling wind blew, and a faint stench of decay could be smelled from afar.

"This place is so unlucky."

Wan Yi looked disgusted.

The apricot-yellow boat landed slowly. As soon as Wan Yi stepped into the area of ​​the corpse-raising ground, he felt a chilly wind sweep over him, making him feel cold all over.

"Such a strong aura of malevolence."

Wan Yi frowned, walked into a hall, found a steward, and said, "I want to rent a place with yin energy."

The steward raised his eyelids, glanced at Wan Yi, and said in a somewhat lifeless tone, "A low-grade Yin Sha land, 100 contribution points per month, can be used to refine Qi-refining corpse puppets."

"A Yin Sha Land that doesn't meet any grade only costs 10 contribution points per month, and at most you can only refine a Nascent Soul Corpse Puppet."

Which one do you want?

Before Wan Yi came here, he had naturally already learned a thing or two about it.

The lowest grade Yin Sha land is located on the lowest grade Yin Sha vein, deep in the earth, where the Yin Sha energy is naturally abundant.

Unranked Yin Sha places are located on the surface of the earth, far from the Yin Sha veins, and the Yin Sha energy is relatively thin.

As for the middle-grade and high-grade Yin Sha veins, the outer sect has none at all.

Furthermore, the outer sect consists of a group of minor cultivators practicing fetal breathing, so they have no need for it at all.

Wan Yi was only refining corpse puppets for the first time, so he naturally rented a low-grade Yin Sha Land.

So Wan Yi smiled and said, "Anything that doesn't meet the required grade will do. I'll rent it for three months."

After paying his dues, the steward led Wan Yi deeper into the corpse-raising ground.

The two remained silent throughout the journey, the only sound the howling of the wind.

Before the time it takes to drink a cup of tea was up, the steward led Wan Yi to the foot of a cliff and pointed to a dark cave entrance, saying:

"This is it, Stone Chamber No. 25, A. Go in yourself."

"The lease is for three months. You need to renew it before it expires. If you exceed the lease term, I will confiscate the corpse puppets you created as payment for the debt."

After saying that, he turned and left without waiting for Wan Yi's response.

Wan Yi took a deep breath and steeled himself as he stepped into the cave.

Inside was a narrow passage.

Wan Yi took only a few steps before finding Stone Chamber No. 25.

This stone chamber is somewhat similar to his cave dwelling; both were carved into the ground along the cliff face.

It was just much larger than his cave dwelling and had a protective array.

The ground was not paved with stone slabs, but covered with a thick layer of gray-black soil.

It goes without saying that this was used to bury corpses.

Standing inside the stone chamber, Wan Yi felt waves of malevolent energy continuously emanating from the soil, chilling him to the bone.

He remained calm and focused, sensing the malevolent energy around him.

Speaking of which, this Yin Sha vein can also be considered a type of earth vein. It is mostly a place where corpses accumulate and is formed by the mutation of earth veins.

If an ordinary cultivator stayed in such a place for too long, the yin energy would enter their body, inevitably causing them to fall ill.

However, he cultivates the Earth element, so the Yin energy not only cannot harm him, but he can also extract several kinds of Earth spiritual energy from it.

One of the spiritual energies is the Profound Yin Corpse-Nourishing Qi needed to break through to the Qi Refining Realm in the practice of the "Corpse-Nourishing and Puppet-Refining Great Method".

However, the "Great Method of Raising Corpses and Refining Puppets" is only a low-grade true method, and the Xuan Yin Corpse-Raising Qi is only a low-grade spiritual Qi.

If Wan Yi were to break through to the Qi Refining stage using the Profound Yin Corpse Nourishing Qi, without an extraordinary opportunity to change his spiritual Qi, he would be stuck in the Qi Refining stage for the rest of his life, unable to even touch the threshold of Foundation Establishment.

That won't do!

How could Wan Yi be held back by a low-grade true technique?

We must find a way to acquire a superior and genuine method.

However, the sect only sells low- to mid-grade true techniques; high-grade true techniques are never sold.

It seems we still have to target the main character in the script.

Fang Xiu, the protagonist of "The Old Demon of Biyang", is now a Foundation Establishment cultivator, which is beyond the reach of me, a mere Nascent Soul cultivator.

To think you could get the highest-grade true teachings from him is a pipe dream.

However, Han Tiezhu, the protagonist of "The Legend of Tiezhu's Immortal Cultivation," is currently only a minor cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage, just like himself, and is an outer disciple. He can frequently interact with him, review the script, and seize opportunities.

Moreover, Han Tiezhu also possesses the blue talent "Good Luck Galore".

Logically speaking, he should definitely be able to obtain a top-grade true method. As long as we keep an eye on him, we can naturally get a share of the benefits.

Wan Yi estimated that the blue talent was at least comparable to the purple talent.

Gray talent is the worst; it should be compared to the embryonic breathing realm.

The white talent is slightly better, comparable to the Qi Refining talent.

The green talent is Foundation Establishment.

That blue talent must be the Purple Mansion.

Given Han Tiezhu's good fortune, it's only natural that he would acquire a top-grade true technique.

Besides the two main characters, we also need to find the main characters for the newly discovered script, "The Array of Immortals".

Judging from the title, the script is related to formations, and the protagonist is probably a formation cultivator, so it should be set in the Formation Hall.

Once the corpse puppet is completed, I'll go check out the Array Formation Hall. Maybe I can snatch some opportunities and make some profit.
