Chapter 872 Sealing the Queen Mother of the West

The Queen Mother of the West did not believe Zhang Chen's nonsense, thinking that he was just trying to make up an excuse to fool her. Zhang Chen did not argue in the face of the Queen Mother of the West's questioning, but only smiled slightly. The next moment, mysterious energy flowed around his body, and he began to cultivate the Giant Opening Heaven Method.

The Giant's Heaven-Opening Method is a physical cultivation method. When combined with the Mighty Mountain-Moving Method, it is sufficient to cultivate to the Great Luo realm. It is one of the supreme methods, but the lack of the "Mysterious Transformation Technique" greatly diminishes its effectiveness.

The transformation of profound skills is the application of techniques, while the creation of the heavens by giants is the foundation of these techniques.

If we compare the creation of the world by giants to steel, then the transformation of profound skills is the mold. Simply forging steel is useless; it's just a pile of steel. Only by utilizing it can we unleash its immense power.

As for the lack of medicinal assistance, Zhang Chen didn't care, because he had magical power, and with magical power, what need did he have for medicinal assistance?
However, by cultivating the method of the Giant Opening Heaven, the physical body will gradually grow larger. Only by cultivating to the point of being able to control the size at will, or by mastering the method of the transformation of the profound skill, can one control the size of the physical body. Therefore, Zhang Chen has only begun to circulate the incantation to cultivate. Once he finds the big black dog, he will see if he can ask it for the incantation of the transformation of the profound skill. At that time, he can officially merge these three skills into the Nine Revolutions Profound Skill, which is the supreme method for achieving true physical sainthood.

Without the aid of medicinal liquid, Zhang Chen's cultivation of the Giant Opening Heaven technique was exceptionally slow, but fortunately, everything was under his control. He was not in a hurry to speed things up, because he still had enough time.

Just as Zhang Chen was comprehending the technique, time flew by, and another half a year passed. Suddenly, at a certain moment, a subtle change occurred on Zhang Chen's cheat screen. A mark was formed in Zhang Chen's body, and his eyes looked at the zombie in front of him. At this moment, the body of the Queen Mother of the West was completely under his control by the Corpse Control Technique.

"If it weren't for the struggle between the consciousness of the Queen Mother of the West and the zombie, I wouldn't have been able to gain control of the entire zombie so quickly." Zhang Chen felt a sense of emotion, his eyes filled with a strange light. His figure twisted and flashed several times, and he had already arrived on the high platform. Looking at the zombie of the Queen Mother of the West, he could feel the struggle between the will of the Queen Mother of the West and the zombie in the flesh. The two were entangled together, and the zombie's original consciousness was completely at a disadvantage.

"I'll lend you a hand!" Zhang Chen looked at the Queen Mother of the West's physical body, a strange look appearing in his eyes. The next moment, he used his corpse control technique to actively suppress the zombie's consciousness, helping the Queen Mother of the West devour everything the zombie had.

The power of the Queen Mother of the West's true spirit was already higher than that of the zombie's consciousness. With Zhang Chen's assistance and the acceleration of time, it only took a mere thousand years for the Queen Mother of the West to completely devour the zombie's consciousness and take its place.

"Jia Shiba, you're dead! I have completely devoured your physical consciousness and taken full control of your body. Have you thought about how you want to die?" As she familiarized herself with her body, Xi Wangmu opened her eyes and stared at Zhang Chen with furious glares.

"Your Majesty's physical body has been transformed into a zombie. Doesn't it feel awkward for your true spirit to control a zombie body?" Zhang Chen asked.

"No! I should thank you. Thank you for helping me refine the dragon vein. With my cultivation reaching this level, as long as my physical body is cleansed by the chaotic energy and transformed into a primordial state, the zombie body is merely a form to me. It will not only not become a shackle for me, but it will also give me some more profound methods. As long as I stand on the ground, I can continuously draw upon the power of the earth and the power of the sun, moon, and stars for my own use. My chances of surviving in this world have greatly increased." The Queen Mother of the West's voice was full of pride.

"If Your Majesty says so, I can rest assured!" Zhang Chen looked at the Queen Mother of the West and suddenly said something inexplicable.

Xi Wangmu was taken aback upon hearing this. She raised her eyes to look at Zhang Chen, and a bad feeling suddenly welled up in her heart. The attitude of Jia Shiba in front of her was quite different from the image of him crying and begging for mercy on his knees.

"Die!" Fearing further complications, the Queen Mother of the West attacked Zhang Chen directly, but her arm was lost control as soon as she raised it.

Not only did she lose control of her arms, but she also lost control of all her organs.

"How could my physical body be out of control?" The Queen Mother of the West was shocked. She realized that she had fallen into the pit again. Her figure flashed and her true spirit was about to abandon her physical body and escape.

As expected of the Queen Mother of the West, an ancient being who had experienced countless tribulations, she had a keen grasp of the situation. Realizing that things were not going well, she did not linger in the fight and made the most correct choice. She even abandoned her physical body and chose to sacrifice it directly. However, her action was too late. Chains suddenly shot out from the acupoints of her body, hooking her soul and locking it firmly within her body.

"Open for me!" The Queen Mother of the West's voice was like thunder. She slashed down at the chains with her divine power, but the chains were like an illusion. The Queen Mother of the West's divine power passed through the chains as if the chains did not exist, without causing any ripples.

The Queen Mother of the West finally turned pale with anger. She had lost control of her physical body, and her soul was locked inside her body. She finally realized that she had messed up.

"How do you have such methods?" The Queen Mother of the West's voice was filled with disbelief.

“Even now, Your Majesty’s words are still full of contempt. You still look down on me!” Zhang Chen looked at the Queen Mother of the West with only calmness.

He didn't really want to anger the Queen Mother of the West. His soul-snatching skills could only guarantee that he wouldn't be harmed, but he couldn't guarantee that the people around him would be safe.

Moreover, the soul-snatching chains could indeed lock the Queen Mother of the West's soul within her body, preventing her from escaping, but Zhang Chen had to reinforce them every so often.

Most importantly, can his corpse control technique be activated indefinitely? Can he control the Queen Mother of the West's body at all times? Obviously not, he and the Queen Mother of the West must eventually find a balanced solution.

Upon hearing Zhang Chen's words, the Queen Mother of the West was stunned for a moment. Her expression changed as she realized that she had indeed underestimated the ant in front of her. The other party had gone to such lengths to scheme and plot. She should indeed raise her level of respect for him, and at least not treat him as an ant as she did now.

"You now control my body and spirit, and I acknowledge your methods, but do you really think you've got me cornered? Your method of controlling corpses is a kind of divine power, isn't it? Do you think you can keep using your divine power forever without stopping?" The Queen Mother of the West said, "Moreover, your chains can only bind my soul, but they cannot stop my divine power or restrain me. You probably don't have any relatives or friends around you, right? Otherwise, I would kill everyone around you." The Queen Mother of the West, as expected of the Queen Mother of the West, a powerful being at the Hunyuan level, had already deduced the flaws in Zhang Chen's methods in a short time.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chen sighed softly, "Your Majesty, you are forcing me."

"I'm forcing you, what can you do about it?" the Queen Mother of the West said coldly.

Zhang Chen started to undo his pants again, and this time he was controlling the body of the Queen Mother of the West to undo Zhang Chen's belt. Although the Queen Mother of the West was a zombie, her body was no different from that of a living person, and her movements were extremely agile, just like a living person.

"You insolent fool! Stop right now! What can't be discussed? Why torture each other like this!" The Queen Mother of the West felt as if the sky had fallen and hurriedly rebuked her.

As for not valuing physical flesh? It's just a stinking carcass.

The Queen Mother of the West's soul is inside her physical body!

"I wanted to resolve things with Her Majesty, but she won't let me go," Zhang Chen sighed helplessly.

Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother of the West fell silent. After a long while, she said, "Remove all the restraints from me, and our past grievances will be wiped clean and forgotten."

"Does Your Majesty think I'm a fool?" Zhang Chenhui replied.

"I swear to Heaven," said the Queen Mother of the West.

"You're untouched by karma, you're not even afraid of divine punishment, so what's the use of your oath?" Zhang Chen retorted, utterly speechless.

"What do you intend to do?" The Queen Mother of the West glared at Zhang Chen.

"Does Your Majesty know what the situation is like outside?" Zhang Chen asked instead of answering the Queen Mother of the West's question.

The Queen Mother of the West slowly raised her head, her eyes flashing with golden light that shot straight to the heavens. That golden light pierced through the feng shui formation and saw the entire world. She saw the broken Thirty-Three Heavens and the shackles of the world. The next moment, the Queen Mother of the West couldn't help but change color: "How could this be?"

The outside world can no longer contain her. If she steps out of the feng shui formation, all that awaits her is to return to the heavens and earth.

According to her original plan, she had swallowed the Kunlun ley lines, breaking the balance of heaven and earth. Now, the outside world should be on the verge of collapse, and all things should be returning to chaos. But the world outside is not what she imagined at all. Instead, it has evolved to the other extreme. The world barrier is incredibly hard, hundreds or thousands of times harder than in the primordial era, and the environment is so harsh that it is almost at the end of the Dharma era.

Zhang Chen smiled wryly upon hearing this: "Your Majesty has lived from that time until now, surely you know what has happened in the world?"

"Aren't you also alive since the beginning of time? Don't you know what happened?" the Queen Mother of the West said irritably.

Zhang Chen smiled wryly upon hearing this. How could he explain this to the Queen Mother of the West?

There's no way to explain it!

However, judging from the appearance of the Queen Mother of the West, he could guess that she had been sleeping soundly in the tomb and had no idea that the world outside had changed.

"With things already like this outside, is there any point in us continuing to fight?" Zhang Chen asked.

The Queen Mother of the West fell silent, her eyes fixed on the feng shui formation before her. With her awakening, the feng shui formation was about to break. If she could not find a place to hide, she would face certain death and annihilation. She was absolutely no match for the power of heaven and earth to devour her.

"Find me a place to hide, and we'll call it even!" said the Queen Mother of the West.
