Dongxuan Spiritual Realm

Chapter 60 Blood Corpse Coffin Fungus
Just as Yang Qisheng and Liu Hanzhang were listening to the Blood Corpse Saint Master Wen Yan telling the story of five hundred years ago,
In another larger tomb chamber, Pei Lingyu and the other two were listening to someone telling another legend from that year.

A tall figure, shrouded in murderous aura.

He was wearing a golden helmet and golden armor and sitting upright in a large stone coffin, with his knees crossed and his hands in a seal, like a statue.

He didn't move his lips, and the sound came from his stomach: "When I was attacking Loushan Pass, the petty officials in the court suddenly seized power, cut off my food supply, and sent eunuchs with imperial edicts to seize my military power.

My army was destabilized, and the Lou Kingdom mobilized its entire army to attack. I was attacked from both sides, and my army fell apart. I took my loyal men and fled to Qin'e Village deep in the mountains, where I met Wen Yan, the Saint of the Blood Corpse Cult.

We fell in love at first sight. After I recovered from my injuries in Qin'e Village, I led the people back to the court, beheaded the treacherous officials, cleared the court, and regained military and political power. Then I raised food and grass, led the army, broke through Loushan Pass in one fell swoop, and destroyed the Lou Kingdom.

To repay the life-saving grace of that year, I ignored the objections of my family and ministers and insisted on returning to Qin'e Village to marry Shi Wenyan. I wanted to join hands with her to conquer the world, I would become the founding emperor and she would be the queen.

She persuaded me to create an army of armored zombies, all invulnerable to weapons and pain. They charged into battle, victorious in every battle, unstoppable. To stay together forever, I joined her in practicing the Blood Corpse Method.

That evil technique requires daily bathing in the blood of at least nine living people, which not only enhances magical power but also preserves eternal youth. However, what I didn't know was that she had been using me, and the technique she taught me was incomplete!

The story told by this demon corpse general is another version:
Chu Hanfeng followed Shi Wenyan to practice the Blood Corpse Art. He originally wanted to achieve immortality with her, but she secretly used some tricks on him and gradually turned him into a zombie. Not only him, but also his subordinates!

Shi Wenyan treated him as a puppet, intending to use him and his subordinates to unify the world and become the Queen of Heavenly Corpses.

To this end, she created an army of 100,000 armored zombies, which swept through the states and counties like a swarm of locusts. All humans were turned into zombies, and the rest of the chickens, ducks, geese, dogs, cats, etc. were all sucked dry of blood and died.

This angered the gods and the people, and many righteous sword immortals came to subdue her. Those with less Taoism were no match for her, and those with higher Taoism were no match for her in the form of her blood corpse soul refining formation.

Finally, a Taoist priest named Gui Zang from Taiyi Palace came and broke her blood corpse formation, severed her eight meridians, killed two of the three corpses, and destroyed six of the nine insects, thus bringing her down to earth.

She abandoned all her zombie subordinates and used the secret method of the Three Corpses Path to drill into the earth veins and escape with her life.

At that time, zombies were rampant and Master Gui Zang did not have time to completely destroy her.

It took Master Gui Zang more than half a year to transform tens of thousands of people who had recently turned into zombies back into humans. As for the rest who could not be saved, he destroyed their bodies and sent their souls to reincarnation.

There was originally a chapter on converting zombies in the Lingbao Sutra, but it was very brief and mainly talked about how to deal with the ancient drought demon.

In the process of dealing with these zombies, Gui Zang Zhenren summed up a lot of experience and methods, and also invented many ways to crack the Three Corpses Taoist method, all of which were recorded in it. This is how the current sixteenth volume "The Three Corpses Method" came into being.

After Shi Wenyan escaped, he knew that his foundation had been destroyed and he would not live long, so he controlled Chu Hanfeng and brought his men to build this general's tomb.

"She turned me and my soldiers into puppets. There are three levels under this tomb. The bottom level holds the 100,000 civilians she manipulated us to capture. A large number of people from the surrounding counties and towns were captured and buried alive there.

The second level is made up of my subordinates, over ten thousand strong. The third level is made up of her own clansmen and followers, as well as my family. She trained them all into soldiers, calculating that she would use the feng shui of this place to extract the Earthly Evil Spirit and raise corpses.

According to what you said, now that five hundred years have passed, she must be resurrected! My two fellow Taoists, when Guizang Zhenren defeated her, I begged him to save me, but he said I killed too many people in my lifetime and my murderous aura was too strong.

Even if I die, I will be a fierce ghost, and will suffer from eighteen kinds of suffering such as rotting, injury, stiffness, etc. Let me endure the pain for five hundred years to wear away the murderous aura in me, and his disciple will come to save me.

I've already woken up, and I haven't gone out to wantonly suck blood and harm others. I've been waiting for you to arrive. Now I see that the swordsmanship you use is the same as that of Gui Zang Zhenren back then. I guess Gui Zang Zhenren's prophecy back then has come true!"

Pei Lingyu and the other two had just fought with him and knew that his magic power was extremely strong. Fortunately, they had cultivated the Six Evil-Slaying Treasures over the years and made special preparations for several months before coming. With a fierce bombardment, they were able to withstand the opponent's attack.

If a fight really goes to the death, it is still unknown who will win or lose.

Under such circumstances, the other party stopped fighting first and told him about his past experience, which he found quite credible.

Pei Lingyu asked, "General Chu, do you want us to help you get rid of that Blood Corpse Master Wen Yan?" The Demon Corpse General corrected him, "You're not asking us to help me get rid of her. You're asking us to help everyone in the world get rid of her. If you don't believe me, you can go back and ask your elders. True Man Guizang should still be alive, right? You can just ask him directly."

"Master has already achieved perfection in his practice, achieved the state of Lianxu and Hedao, and returned to the realm of Dongxuan Spirit."

"Then ask your master. Master Guizang must have given some instructions before he ascended to heaven."

Pei Lingyu thought that the sect leader, Immortal Wuwang, went to the Yunyang Sect to discuss how to deal with the changes in the world, Immortal Dayu went to Fanghu Mountain overseas to seek medicine, and his third uncle, Immortal Tianqu, was only concerned with collecting herbs and refining pills, smelting iron and refining weapons, and did not care about other matters.

But thinking back to what Junior Brother Lu Yichao relayed from Master Tianqu when I came here, it seemed that there was indeed another deeper meaning.

In the tomb chamber earlier, the Blood Corpse Saintess Master Wen Yan was also talking about how Chu Hanfeng betrayed her: "I taught him all my Three Corpse Teachings without reservation.

After achieving great success, he transformed his soldiers into armored zombies to conquer the world for him. These zombies were incredibly powerful, able to leap several feet high, and were invulnerable to swords and spears, making them invulnerable to flesh and blood.

When zombies pass through, they suck blood, and humans whose blood they suck will also become zombies. I see that he has killed too many people, and it is against the will of heaven. I repeatedly persuade him, but he won't listen. He even distanced himself from me because of this.

Although I practice the Three Corpses Dao Fa, I have been living in seclusion in the mountains for many years. The secret method I practiced is also a method that my ancestors came up with to revive after death because they were unable to achieve immortality.

I never imagined he would use the secret techniques passed down from generation to generation to defy Heaven and oppress the people! I couldn't persuade him, nor could I bear to see him commit such evil, so I went to seek help from Master Guizang.

Liu Hanzhang and Yang Qisheng were also a little surprised when they heard the name of their master: "Is this the encounter you mentioned earlier?"

Shi Wenyan nodded: "At that time, Chu Hanfeng's Three Corpse Daoism had been cultivated to the point of lawlessness, and he had hundreds of thousands of zombie subordinates. Many sword immortals died at his hands, and I was unable to do anything to him. I heard that Taiyi Palace's Xuanmen was an authentic sect and that the leader, Guizang Zhenren, had boundless magical powers, so I went to Qingning Mountain to seek him.

True Man Gui Zang did not disappoint me. He single-handedly broke his Ten Thousand Corpse Formation, severed eight of his Qi channels, killed two of his Three Corpses, and annihilated six of his Nine Insects, bringing him down to earth. However, he escaped quickly, and True Man Gui Zang still had to deal with the zombies, allowing him to escape using the Blood Corpse Substitute technique.

After he returned, he built this tomb, claiming he wanted to share my life and death, but in reality, he was using me. His ambitions were undying, and he planned to resurrect five hundred years later, leading his zombie army to once again sweep across the world, becoming the immortal Zombie Emperor who controlled yin and yang!

After hearing this, Yang Qisheng's face was filled with sympathy: "We are here to eliminate him this time. You taught him the Three Corpses Dao Method, so you must know his weaknesses. Can you tell us?"

Shi Wenyan said: "Our lineage combines essence and blood to refine blood corpses. Chu Hanfeng's blood corpse is hidden in the crypt under his bedroom. The one in the coffin outside is just an incarnation he condensed with his evil spirit.
Even if you kill it and shatter it, it will quickly regenerate, and you won't be able to cause any substantial harm to it. To completely destroy it, you must use blood to draw out its true form.

His blood corpse loves the blood of living people, especially the blood of your Xuanmen authentic sword immortals. He can't resist this temptation and has to come out to suck your blood. When you get to his bedroom later,
You can find a container and put some blood in it. A single person's blood doesn't need to be much, just a few drops will do. The more people, the better. Mixing them together will not only increase the temptation to him, but also make it impossible for him to lock onto you."

Shi Wenyan opened her mouth and spat out a Ganoderma-like mushroom, which was bluish in color and cold and chilling. "This is the Blood Corpse Coffin Fungus that I have nurtured for five hundred years with a blood curse. Take it and put it into the blood.
This thing is extremely cold and yin in nature. It will melt when it comes into contact with the warm blood of strangers and mix into it. Once Chu Hanfeng drinks it, he will be under my blood curse, and I can use this Three Corpses Staff to cure him!"

Liu Hanzhang took the blood corpse coffin fungus and looked at it carefully with Yang Qisheng.

Coffin fungus is a kind of Ganoderma lucidum that grows on dead bodies. The best ones are those that grow from the mouth and are called "Golden Lotus Fungus". The second best ones are those that grow from the eyes and are called "Candlelight Fungus". The third best ones are those that grow from the ears and are called "Listening Fungus". The ones that grow from other parts of the body are called "Rotten Soul Fungus".

The worst kind grows from coffins and is called "deadwood fungus."

Although this thing is rare, it does exist. Yang Qisheng had seen it when he was in the martial arts world.

However, he had never heard of this blood corpse coffin fungus.

The mushroom was only the size of a goose egg, emitting a blue glow and a bone-chilling cold. Even Liu Hanzhang did not dare to touch it directly, but instead used his internal energy to absorb it.

"Okay, let's try it." In front of Shi Wenyan, Yang Qisheng was embarrassed to say some things, so he asked Liu Hanzhang to collect the coffin fungus and asked Shi Wenyan about the path in the tomb.
