This is not how immortals cultivate

Chapter 57 Eight Evil Demons
"You didn't know where to put it, so you brought it back and put it here with me?"

At Yulin Academy, Wang Wenxu was practicing calligraphy late at night and hadn't rested yet when Xiang Yuan broke the door open. After hearing the whole story, he looked at the zombie leaning against the wall in shock and was completely speechless.

This is a college. He has cultivated a righteous character. Is it appropriate for him to beat a zombie?

"Xiang Yuan, do you think it's appropriate?"

"Although you have betrayed me, I can't find anyone more trustworthy than you, so... I came." Xiang Yuan turned his head to look to the side, and his voice was so low that it was almost inaudible at the end.

Wang Wenxu's goddess, bah, got Xiang Yuan's approval, and immediately changed his words: "It's suitable, it couldn't be more suitable. Let me help you see what's going on with this zombie."

"Mr. Thank you."

Xiang Yuan spoke lightly, still neither humble nor arrogant, neither close nor distant, neither cold nor hot.

Wang Wenxu was very impressed by this. Just give him a good look and he would work extra hard, without asking for too much.

Xiang Yuan was watching from the side and asked curiously, "Sir, this body is hidden deep inside the tomb. The fake tomb above was built last century. There is no epitaph near the sarcophagus. Can you guess who this person is?"

This zombie was insanely strong, having no intelligence and acting entirely on instinct. With just one move of his iron-clad magical power, he overwhelmed the zombie without any chance of defense. It took a whole room of top-quality blood ganoderma to drain all of its power.

Xiang Yuan is very confident in the Tiger Roaring Blade in his hand. Comparing it with what he saw and heard in Baiyun Villa, he can refer to the Green Dragon Halberd, which is tempered with the blood of a great monster. One is like a dragon flying in the clouds, and the other is like a tiger flying in the wind. The price is negotiable and it is a barter. The value cannot be measured with ordinary money.

Such a sharp sword is helpless against the zombies, and there are also strange jade discs. The zombies are of great significance and must not have been unknown people when they were alive.

It’s a pity that the long-lost secret manual of magical skills was not found.

Wang Wenxu felt around the zombie for a while, pointed at the wrinkled face with a wry smile, "I don't know who this person is, but his bones are like natural jade, and he has long since returned to his past. He is definitely not an ordinary person."

The zombie was a powerful person who could return to the past when he was alive. Xiang Yuan could guess it with his toes, but he was short-sighted and couldn't tell what realm he was in. Wang Wenxu couldn't tell either after checking.

"Xiang Yuan, you said there is another jade disk in the tomb?"

"That's it."

Xiang Yuan took out the jade disk from his bosom and frowned, saying, "The Yin energy is too strong, sir, please be careful and don't hurt yourself."

"It's all right. My old bones don't catch cold easily."

Receiving Xiang Yuan's unintentional concern, Wang Wenxu laughed and took the jade disc to examine it carefully.

The moment he took it, the surging cold air permeated his flesh, blood and marrow. He cut open the red light with his palm and drove back the coldness with his righteous spirit. He exclaimed in amazement: "What a beautiful treasure! It is indeed the thing from last week. With this thing protecting my body, it will not decay for ten thousand years. But the material is a bit weird. I don't know what it is."

Wang Wenxu sighed that Xiang Yuan had found a way by chance. The large tomb between the two mountains of Songjiazhuang had been dug out by the Six Gates for more than ten years, and countless people had come and gone. When Xiang Yuan entered for the first time, he found a different world and fought a fierce battle with zombies to get this thing.

If this isn’t fate, what else could it be?
"A kind person will never be let down by heaven and earth. You saved the people of Songjiazhuang, learned about this tomb, and found this treasure. This is what you deserve." Wang Wenxu encouraged Xiang Yuan to keep up the good work and be kind to others in the future.

He put his fingers together to form a sword and wrote the word "forbidden" on the jade disk in mid-air, preventing the negative energy from leaking out.

"I will pass on the method to you. You can practice with this object without being noticed by outsiders."

Wang Wenxu returned the jade disk to Xiang Yuan. He was a gentleman and did not have the same desire to recover a lost treasure as Xiang Yuan did. He continued, "I saw the animal patterns on the jade disk. This object has a method of closing and opening, which is not complicated. The Yin Qi is constantly leaking out. I think it was done by the person who buried it, perhaps to preserve the remains of the ancestors, or for other reasons."

Wang Wenxu did not want to figure out the specific reason. The jade bi was obtained by Xiang Yuan, and the person buried there had already turned into a dead tree. The wood had already been chopped off, so there was no point in figuring it out.

Xiang Yuan wrote down the method, tried it twice, and it really worked.

He put the jade disc in his arms and looked at the zombie again. He felt that it was a waste to keep the jade disc. It would be better if he had a method to control the zombie.

"Sir, what should we do with this zombie? Chop it up and use it as firewood?"

"Copper skin and iron bones, can't be split, and can't be burned..."

Wang Wenxu muttered something, and after struggling for a long time, he said, "The city gate will be opened in one hour. When Xu Jixian comes to the academy, you can ask him. He knows a few tricks about the way to control corpses."

Xiang Yuan nodded. These words were really harsh coming from the mouth of a gentleman, and it was obvious that Wang Wenxu still felt guilty.

Keep it up!

Wang Wenxu didn't want to talk more about the topic of corpse disposal, so he asked, "You weren't injured when you fought the zombies, were you?"

"The injuries were serious, but they are all healed now..." Xiang Yuan briefly recounted the whole process. Zombies were extremely powerful, and even without sharp claws and fangs, it was still unpleasant to be rushed by them.

During the fight, he felt his tendons and bones shifted several times, his ribs broke several times, and he had countless bruises and swellings, but under the effect of his murderous intent burning his blood, the medicinal power of the blood ganoderma penetrated his bones and healed all his injuries.

He drank red bottles while fighting zombies. After the fight, not only was he not seriously injured, but he also felt full of energy, light and healthy. He guessed that he had gained a lot.

Small destruction leads to small reconstruction, big destruction leads to big reconstruction. Without destruction there is no reconstruction. His miserable condition at that time could be called a big destruction.

Xiang Yuan did not describe the tragic situation in detail. Wang Wenxu was unaware of the situation and could not guess how ferocious the zombies were, let alone how much benefit Xiang Yuan had gained. He just thought it was a close call and did not take it to heart.

"The tomb below is open, and it is bound to attract the attention of interested people. Have you dealt with it cleanly?"

"The entrance slab was filled with soil and compacted, covered with a layer of dust, and the bloodstains were cleaned up."

"not enough……"

Wang Wenxu stroked his beard with a smile: "Everything you do will leave traces. Even if you clean it up, people will still find out something. Just in case, I will spread some news that disciples of the Soul Guarding Sect have been around recently."

"The Soul Keeper?"

"One of the eight evil demons, digging up people's ancestral graves and disturbing the ancestors is considered shameful even by evil demons!"

Wang Wenxu gave Xiang Yuan a brief introduction. There are countless evil demons in the world, and there are eight inheritances that can be called first-class. They are collectively called the Eight Great Evil Demons by the righteous people. They are Huangquan Dao, Bi'an Gate, Xingxiu Palace, Jile Dao, Wangmo Palace, Xuehai Dao, Shouling Sect, and Huanmie Dao.

There is not much to say about Huangquan Road. Just look at the sacrifices and ghost refining in Songjiazhuang, and you will know that they are not a good group.

The other side gate, if the Yellow Springs Road is half human and half ghost, this gate is purely for Yin spirits and ghosts, with few living people and it is mysterious.

Xingxiu Palace is the top killer group in the world. Its members are chaotic and there are all kinds of people. As long as you can afford the price, they dare to kill anyone. Not to mention the emperor, even the world's top leaders are no exception. It is said that its headquarters is located in Northern Qi, but no one knows the exact location.

In the Paradise, there are Buddhas and Taoists, who practice the method of collecting and replenishing. Handsome men and beautiful women, as well as animals in human clothing, are all evil demons that feed the furnace and cauldron.

The Demon King Palace and the Ten Great Demons are extremely ferocious and are complete demon cultivators.

The Blood Sea Way, the Way of Killing, the eternal killing intent that the uncle-master taught Xiang Yuan came from this.

The Soul Guarding Sect, also known as the Tomb Guarding Sect, has its disciples calling themselves tomb keepers, robbing tombs, digging up corpses, and stealing treasures, which is the most despicable thing. Not to mention the righteous people, other evil demons would shout and kill when they meet them, after all, no one wants to be in the middle of a fight and suddenly see the other side take out their own grandfather.

The Way of Illusion, entering the Way with the heart, practicing with the help of other people's sorrows, sufferings, love, hate, and vengeance. It is weird and changeable, and likes to play with people's hearts.

"In addition to the eight evil demons, in the past few decades, an evil cultivation force has come from behind and surpassed them. It is called 'Immortal Mountain' and has the potential to surpass them. Maybe they should be called the nine evil demons in the future..."

There is very little news about the Immortal Mountain, as if it appeared out of thin air. Its footprints are all over the Three Kingdoms. Every time it appears, it is accompanied by a great disaster, and every time it appears, it is accompanied by a powerful and strong person. People are curious but can find no clues.

Xiang Yuan's scalp tingled after hearing this. With so many demons and monsters, life in this world is really not easy. He asked in confusion, "Sir, you mentioned so many evil demons, but what about the demon forces?"

There must be monsters, otherwise where would the Tiger Roaring Blade and the Azure Dragon Halberd be tempered with the blood of great monsters? And there are many monsters in southern Xinjiang. It is hard to imagine that these monsters have not gathered together to form a large force.

There should be at least one.

"My human race is under the care of the demon race. We don't have the innate nature, and it's not easy to practice. I don't know how many people have fallen before the innate nature. With such great kindness, do you think there will be a first-class race created by demons in the world?" Wang Wenxu gritted his teeth and said, he couldn't tolerate the mention of demons.

Right!

Xiang Yuan nodded. Wang Wenxu's attitude towards the demon race is the same as the attitude of all practitioners in the world towards monsters. If the demon race curses the human race, the human race will kill all the demons. If I am not good, you can't expect to be happy.

If the demons were scattered a little, they could survive a few more days. But once they gathered together and formed a force, they would immediately attract human monks to hunt them down.

Thinking about it this way, he roughly understood the origin of the demon blood.

It can be imagined that all the first-rate forces have their own demon slaves, who are skinned and tortured when needed, or used to refine weapons or elixirs. Those with a long-term vision would bleed them while feeding them medicine, and artificially breed them to pass on to future generations for sustainable development.

A fox demon passed down for three generations!

After figuring out the key, Xiang Yuan sighed. Humans and monsters have accumulated blood feuds for generations, and they become red-eyed when they meet. They will not give up until one side is dead and the other side is dead. There is no hope at all for the thousand-year-old snake monster to repay his gratitude.
