Chapter 172 Living Human Corpse Refining
Song Wen turned and left, with a barely perceptible gleam in his eyes.
Just now, he felt a trace of corpse qi on the rat-eyed man.
Corpse cultivators, corpse puppets, or dead bodies have corpse qi.
The rat-eyed man was breathing normally, and his heart beat vigorously. He was definitely not a dead body.
Moreover, the rat-eyed man's dantian was destroyed. Without rare treasures to repair his dantian, it was impossible for him to practice again. Then there was only one possibility...
Zombie?
The corpse qi on the rat-eyed man was not actively inhaled and refined, but was forcibly filled with corpse qi.
Song Wen's mouth curled up a sneer. The righteous world was much more interesting than he had imagined.
Although Zhao Dapeng was only a deacon of the outer sect of the Beast Taming Sect, he was in charge of an alley in the market, so he had a lot of money.
With a backer and spirit stones, he actually took the risk to practice the secret art of the magic way in the market. What was he doing?
......
Song Wen pushed open the gate of the yard No. 36. The yard was a bit messy. When Sun Daxiong left, he did not take many daily necessities with him and threw them randomly in the yard.
After simply cleaning up the yard and making it look acceptable, Song Wen did not bother about it anymore. He did not live in this yard anyway.
He entered the kitchen and moved the water tank in the kitchen, revealing a ten-foot-long green stone slab below.
He pried open the ten-foot-long stone slab in a few moves, revealing brown soil.
Song Wen had a shovel in his hand and began to dig the soil. All the excavated soil was put into the storage ring.
He had dug an underground secret room in the opposite yard before, so he was familiar with it.
In less than an hour, Song Wen dug out a secret room 20 meters long and 10 meters wide, five meters deep underground.
Before returning to the market, Song Wen originally planned to place the "Nine Palaces Yin Formation" and "Gathering Qi and Isolating Spirit Formation" in the secret room of the small courtyard opposite. With the concealment effect of the two formations, it should be possible to hide from the spiritual awareness of the Jindan cultivator.
Song Wen planned to practice some secret techniques that could not be easily shown to others in the underground secret room.
As for the magic techniques, Song Wen would not practice them for the time being. To practice the "Corpse King Blood Refining Technique", a large amount of corpse evil spirit or Yin evil dew is required, which is difficult to get in Donghua Market. Only a small amount can be bought in the mountain ghost market, but for Song Wen, it is more or less a drop in the bucket.
Before leaving the Corpse Demon Sect, Song Wen stored a lot of corpse evil spirit and Yin evil dew. Killing Wu Ren also got a lot of Yin evil dew, but it was also a little less when used. Song Wen did not plan to use it for the time being, in case of emergency.
What he did not expect was that the small courtyard opposite was rented out by Zhao Dapeng for the second time.
The "Qi-Gathering and Spirit-Isolating Array" must be retrieved, and Ji Ruxue must not be allowed to discover the corpse beast in the array.
In the next few days, Song Wen stayed in the house, refining pills and practicing the "Eternal Life Skill".
At the same time, he sent out a black armored Gu to monitor the movements of Ji Ruxue across the door at all times, and only waited for her to leave the yard before retrieving the "Qi-Gathering and Spirit-Isolating Array".
This wait lasted for four days.
Late at night that day, Ji Ruxue, wearing a black outfit, covered her head and face, and left the yard.
Worried that Ji Ruxue would suddenly return halfway, Song Wen sent out a black armored Gu to follow her from a distance.
He himself flashed into the small yard opposite.
Song Wen released his spiritual consciousness and walked slowly towards the kitchen. The entrance to this secret room was also under the water tank in the kitchen.
Just as he walked to the kitchen door and was about to push it open, Song Wen's spiritual consciousness sensed that there was a transparent thin line tied to the door.
This transparent thin line is extremely tough and sharp. If an ordinary Qi-training cultivator comes and does not notice the thin line and directly enters the kitchen, he may be cut in half by the thin line.
"It seems that Ji Ruxue is not an ordinary person."
Although Song Wen could not recognize what kind of treasure the transparent thin line was, he was sure that this thin line was definitely not an ordinary thing.
Carefully avoiding the thin line, Song Wen entered the kitchen.
The kitchen was very tidy. There was a thin layer of dust on the stove, giving people a feeling that no one had come in for a long time.
There was no firewood, rice, oil, salt, rice bowls and dishes needed for cooking in the kitchen.
In other words, no one had cooked in the kitchen for a long time, and Ji Ruxue had not planned to cook.
Ji Ruxue only had the cultivation level of Qi-training period, and she did not plan to cook, which was a bit strange.
Song Wen moved the water tank away, pried up the bluestone, and revealed the entrance to the secret room.
Entering the secret room, the "Qi-collecting and Soul-isolating Array" was intact, and a wolf demon corpse beast was lying in the array, listless.
The wolf demon corpse has been placed in the formation for several months, and the corpse evil spirit has not been replenished and is about to be exhausted.
Song Wen used the formation plate to control the formation, opened a corner of the formation, and flashed in.
He took out a low-grade magic weapon corpse coffin, put away the wolf demon corpse, and then took back the "Qi Condensing and Isolating Spirit Formation".
Song Wen retreated to the entrance of the secret room, took out a storage ring from his arms, and with a thought, a large amount of soil sprayed out of the storage ring, quickly filling the secret room.
After restoring the kitchen, Song Wen flashed out of the small courtyard and went to the 36th courtyard.
At this time, the black armor Gu who was monitoring Ji Ruxue sent back a message.
Ji Ruxue suddenly accelerated and directly broke through the speed limit of the Qi training cultivator, and disappeared.
The black armor Gu only had the strength of the ninth level of Qi training, and it was impossible to keep up with Ji Ruxue, whose speed was comparable to that of a foundation-building cultivator.
Song Wen was shocked that Ji Ruxue actually hid her cultivation level and was at least a foundation-building cultivator.
Even with his spiritual awareness comparable to that of the late stage of foundation building, he was unable to see her hidden cultivation. Either her cultivation was above the late stage of foundation building, or she had a treasure that could change her aura and block the detection of his spiritual awareness.
Song Wen could not help but feel a little fortunate that he did not choose to force his way into the opposite courtyard when the other party was at home, otherwise his identity as a corpse cultivator would be exposed. After all, it would be difficult for him to defeat a sword cultivator in the foundation building period without using corpse means.
Entering the underground secret room of the 36th courtyard, Song set up the "Qi Condensing and Isolating Spirit Array" and the "Nine Palaces Yin Transformation Array" on its periphery. With these two formations, at least the Jindan cultivators could not find any abnormalities in the secret room.
Song Wen took out three storage rings and a storage bag and began to count the things of Lei Hong and the other four people.
First, Lei Hong's storage ring.
As the acting head of the Lei family, Lei Hong had a lot of spirit stones in his storage ring, more than 80,000 spirit stones. When Song Wen killed Wu Ren, he only got seven high-grade spirit stones, more than a hundred medium-grade spirit stones, and thousands of low-grade spirit stones from Wu Ren's storage ring, totaling more than 80,000 low-grade spirit stones.
Of course, the value of other items in Wu Ren's storage ring is much higher than Lei Hong's. The magic weapon-level mourning banner alone is worth at least hundreds of thousands of spirit stones.
The others are some elixirs, spiritual herbs, a few jade slips, and a flying sword.
The flying sword is a high-grade spiritual weapon. Song Wen only has the cultivation of the initial stage of foundation building, so he can't use it for the time being. At least he has to wait until the late stage of foundation building to exert some of its power.
Among the jade slips, one of them made Song Wen overjoyed.
The jade slip is called "Thunder Sutra", which records various thunder methods, including palm thunder, five thunder techniques, thunder spear techniques, thunder shield techniques... and so on, a total of twelve thunder methods.
There are also the first two divine thunders in the nine heavenly thunder secrets of the Lei family, namely the North Pole Divine Thunder and the Big Hole Divine Thunder.
The "Thunder Classic" that Song Wen obtained was obviously not a complete version, but he was already very satisfied with it.
