Chapter 7724: Corpse-raising Valley (1)
The corpse cultivation Valley was a place specially used by the battle corpse sect to raise battle corpses. However, the battle corpses raised here were of a higher grade than the battle corpses in the forest where Gu ding and the others were. The battle corpses here were all powerful battle corpses.
The battle corpse sect’s battle corpses were generally divided into two categories. One was the zombie type, and the other was the mummified type. They seemed to be the same, but to the people of the battle corpse sect, they were different. They actually all belonged to the zombie type, but they took different paths.
The zombie-type battle corpses started off as zombies. They looked very similar to a person who had just died, but their bodies were stiff. It was very strenuous for them to move forward when their joints were bent. They could only jump forward, so they were called jumping corpses. Then, white hair would slowly grow on their bodies, which was called hairy corpses. Above the White hair was green hair, then red hair, then yellow hair, orange hair, purple hair, black hair, black hair, and black hair. After the black hair, the battle corpses would shed all their hair and return to their human forms. They were called living corpses. This kind of living corpse was almost equivalent to the void refinement realm cultivators of the human race and was the highest level of battle corpses.
The development of mummies was similar to that of zombies. At first, they were also jumping corpses, but then their flesh and blood disappeared instead of growing hair. Their skin slowly turned into a metallic color. After jumping corpses, their bodies dried up and their skin turned yellow. These were wood corpses, then gray. This was lead corpses, and there was silver light on the gray. These were tin corpses, then iron corpses, bronze corpses, and silver corpses. This was a silver corpse, followed by a golden one, and finally a golden one. At the level of a golden corpse, there would be no flesh or blood on the battle corpse, only skin and bones. Finally, flesh and blood would slowly grow under the skin, and the battle corpse would turn back into a human form.
The disciples of the battle corpse sect usually used these two types of battle corpses. If there was a difference between these two types of battle corpses, the hairy corpses might be more agile and stronger, while the mummies had a stronger defense.
The places that the battle corpse sect used to raise their corpses were places with dense Yin Qi so that the battle corpses could grow naturally in such places. They could absorb Yin Qi and become stronger and stronger.
The disciples of the battle corpse sect would usually go to the back of the mountain when they had reached the Qi refining and spirit returning realm. They would choose a battle corpse and bring it back to refine it. In the wild battle corpses like the battle corpse sect, only jumping corpses could be found. The highest grade of battle corpses would only be hairy corpses or wooden corpses. Higher grade battle corpses would not appear. This was because in order to upgrade the battle corpse, some materials needed to be refined and the battle corpse needed to absorb blood Qi. All these required investments. The battle corpse sect would not turn all the battle corpses into high-level battle corpses. If that happened, the disciples would not be able to use them. The battle corpses might backfire, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
That was why the battle corpse sect usually allowed the disciples to train the battle corpses into wooden corpses or hairy corpses and let them collect them. Then, the disciples would train them themselves. In this way, the disciples would work hard to cultivate and complete tasks for the battle corpses. At the same time, because of the refining of the battle corpses, their minds were connected with the battle corpses, so the battle corpses would listen to their commands as if they were their arms and fingers, making their combat effectiveness stronger.
The forest that Gu ding and the others had been in was a place where low-level battle corpses were cultivated. There were usually jumping corpses, but the battle corpse sect had already used a secret technique to deal with them, so they no longer jumped while walking. Instead, they walked like humans. Although they still seemed a little stiff, this was the result of the battle corpse sect’s many years of development.
In this Valley, hairy corpses and wooden corpses were cultivated. If the disciples of the battle corpse sect really wanted battle corpses, they would usually come to this Valley to collect them.
As for how these battle corpses came about, it was actually very simple. These battle corpses were all ordinary people when they were alive. They did not have the ability to cultivate and were born in the territory of the battle corpse sect. The battle corpse sect was so cruel to their own disciples, let alone these ordinary people. They would kill some ordinary people from time to time and then bury them in the back mountain. After a long time, these ordinary people would be affected by the yin Qi of the back mountain and turn into zombies.
As long as they turned into a zombie, the people of battle corpse sect would use some of the most common materials to perform a simple refinement on them, making their joints more flexible. This way, the battle corpses would not be like before, where they could only jump and walk. Moreover, when such battle corpses turned into hairy corpses or mummies, their bodies would be more flexible and their combat strength would be stronger. This was also one of the methods by which the battle corpse sect increased the combat strength of their disciples.
The battle corpse sect paid more attention to the corpse cultivation Valley than the forest, so there were also ten disciples guarding the corpse cultivation Valley, unlike the forest, where there was only one guard.
However, because it was dark now, the disciples guarding the valley did not enter the corpse Valley. The battle corpses were raised in the valley and absorbed Yin Qi outside. The yin Qi was more intense at night, which was more beneficial for the battle corpses. However, for the disciples of the battle corpse sect, the yin Qi at night was too strong, which was not a good thing. After all, they were made of flesh and blood, and their bodies also had Yang Qi. If the battle corpses discovered the Yang Qi in their bodies, they might go crazy. It was precisely because of this that the disciples of the battle corpse sect would usually hide in their cave abodes at night. They would wait until dawn to check on the situation of those battle corpses.
At this time, a figure appeared in the corpse Valley. The figure’s appearance did not cause any reaction from the battle corpses, as they were still absorbing the yin Qi.
The way battle corpses absorbed Yin Qi was different from how people meditated. They were usually lying down or standing up. From a distance, one could see countless figures in the valley. They were either standing or lying down. It was a strange situation.
However, the person who entered the valley only glanced at the battle corpses calmly. Then, he began to form a magic formation in his hand and imprinted it into the bodies of the battle corpses. The battle corpses seemed to feel nothing and continued to absorb Yin Qi.
The blood-red moon in the sky was covered by dark clouds. However, the dark clouds slowly dispersed, revealing a trace of blood-red moonlight. With the help of this blood-red moonlight, they could finally see the person who had entered the valley.
It was not a human but a skeleton. It was Gu ding. No wonder the battle corpses in the valley did not attack him. They had already regarded him as one of their own.
This was also a fixed plan. For a sect like the battle corpse sect, disciples would enter the corpse cultivation Valley almost every day to look for battle corpses. The magic array that he had laid out in the battle corpses had no effect on the battle corpses at all. Only when these battle corpses were his enemies would he be able to immediately seize control of these battle corpses as soon as he activated the magic array. At that time, these battle corpses would listen to him.
In the entire battle corpse sect, there were a lot of battle corpses like this. If he could really control these battle corpses one day, he could come up with a corpse sea tactic.
Although guding was hiding in the back mountain of the battle corpse sect, he was not doing nothing. Controlling these battle corpses was one of his tasks.
It had already been ten days since li guding and Jiang Yu returned to the back mountain of the battle corpse sect. In these ten days, Jiang Yu had been cultivating, while Gu ding had used the night to run to the back mountain and imprint his array into as many of the battle corpses as possible.
Gu ding didn’t let Jiang Yu go out to gather information. This was the time when the news was at its peak. If he sent Jiang Yu out to gather information, it would be dangerous. If Jiang Yu was really discovered, then they would be in danger. It was very likely that they would be discovered by the people of the battle corpse sect, and that would be even more troublesome.
Gu ding busied himself for a few hours before he finally managed to imprint all the tens of thousands of battle corpses in the valley into the formation. He then left the valley and returned to the tomb. In the tomb, Jiang Yu was resting. Gu ding was also resting. After all, it was very exhausting for him to imprint so many arrays.
The next morning, Jiang Yu was already in the midst of his cultivation. He was now cultivating the body Arts, so he couldn’t just meditate like before. He had a lot of things to do, so his cultivation now was very loud.
Gu ding slowly stood up. Jiang Yu immediately stopped when he saw Gu ding. He bowed and said,”Master, I would like to go out and gather some information.”
Guding was taken aback. He then shook his head. &Quot; no, if you go out now, you’ll be easily discovered. That’s too dangerous. It’s better not to go out. &Quot;
Jiang Yu replied immediately, ” master, we’re trapped here and can’t receive any news at all. This is also very dangerous. I’ve lived here for so many years and know the battle corpse sect very well. I can go to the battle corpse sect and ask for information. I’m sure the people of the battle corpse sect would never think that they wouldn’t be on guard against us now that we’re here. This way, there won’t be any problems if we want to ask for information. Please don’t worry, master. &Quot;
Hearing Jiang Yu’s words, Gu ding thought for a moment and nodded. &Quot; alright, but you have to change your appearance. With your current appearance, I’m afraid everyone in the battle corpse sect will recognize you. It’s too dangerous for you to go out like this. There’s a magical formation here. As long as you activate this magical formation, you can change your appearance. This way, you can go out and ask for information. &Quot;
Jiang Yu nodded and took the formation from Gu ding. He left the burial chamber and slowly made his way to the battle corpse sect. At the same time, he activated the transformation formation. When he activated the formation, Jiang Yu paid attention and used a water mirror technique to see how he looked like now. To his surprise, he had no facial features on his face. He looked like a blank slate and was extremely bitter.
Jiang Yu’s thoughts moved and he immediately understood. These facial features were formed by his own divine will. He immediately used his divine will to change his appearance into an ordinary one before sneaking into the battle corpse sect.
