Refining Oneself Into A Corpse

Seeing this, Liu Longgang's forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and he was more than half sober from the alcohol.

He knelt on the ground, trembling, kowtowing as he said, "Spiritual Master, please spare me! I didn't know you were a Spiritual Master, and I didn't know about your grievances with Wang Laowu. I'm not familiar with Wang Laowu and Li Xiaohu, really not familiar!"

Chen Xing didn't speak but walked up to Liu Longgang.

Liu Longgang pressed his head to the ground, his body trembling uncontrollably.

"Please don't kill me, I don't want to die yet, I don't want to die." As he spoke, he actually started to cry.

"How did you see that I am a Spiritual Master?" Chen Xing's voice rang out.

Chen Xing hadn't used any corpse energy just now, only relying on pure physical strength to kill those two people.

Liu Longgang seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, slightly straightening his body, but still keeping his head down, and said, "I'm a thug at the Black Tiger Gang's inn. Although I don't have talent, I have a good relationship with several Spiritual Masters. I've seen them take action. They kill ordinary people as easily as crushing an ant."

"Just now, I saw you, Spiritual Master, displaying your divine power and easily killing Wang Laowu and Li Xiaohu, these two scoundrels, so I knew you were here to punish evil and promote good."

Liu Longgang, at this moment, when mentioning the Black Tiger Gang, clearly didn't have the same arrogance as before.

Because he knew very well the methods of Spiritual Masters, he would definitely not be their opponent.

Spiritual Master cultivation, although it doesn't significantly increase lifespan, it does improve physical fitness. Even a sixty-year-old Spiritual Master's physical strength is not something an ordinary, healthy young person can contend with.

All of this is because spiritual power is silently strengthening the Spiritual Master's physique, and some spiritual treasures can also strengthen the physique.

"I didn't expect you to look so stupid, but your mind works quite fast. Okay, I won't kill you," Chen Xing said.

Hearing this, Liu Longgang quickly kowtowed in thanks: "Thank you, Spiritual Master! Everything that happened here today will be buried in my stomach, and I won't tell anyone."

"What happened here?" Chen Xing asked, his tone quite unkind.

Hearing this, Liu Longgang knew he had slipped up and quickly replied: "I don't know! I've been staying at home all day today and haven't gone out at all."

Chen Xing laughed upon hearing this, and said, "Alright, I won't tease you anymore. I have an opportunity here, do you want it?"

As soon as Chen Xing finished speaking, Liu Longgang's expression changed drastically, and then he excitedly said, "I... I don't know what kind of opportunity it is? Can it make me as powerful as you, Spiritual Master?"

"A little weaker than me," Chen Xing said.

"I'm willing! I'm willing!" Liu Longgang quickly said.

"Good," Chen Xing said.

Chen Xing's palm was shrouded in corpse energy, and then he struck Liu Longgang on the top of his head with a palm. Liu Longgang immediately twitched all over, and his whole body collapsed to the ground.

"Enjoy the changes to come," Chen Xing said.

His entire skin turned iron-blue, his body became extremely thin, and a layer of fine white fluff slowly grew on his body.

"Roar..." His throat rolled, and he let out a beast-like roar.

Then, Liu Longgang suddenly stood up from the ground, his body stretched straight, his arms slowly raised, his nose sniffing the bloody scent in the air.

Turning around and jumping, he came to Wang Laowu's corpse, then crawled down and began to devour Wang Laowu's corpse.

Chen Xing saw it clearly from outside.

"It seems that humans indeed have no consciousness after turning into zombies. The reason I have consciousness is probably related to Chen Jiang," Chen Xing guessed.

After all, he was his closest blood relative, and it could be considered a continuation of Chen Xing's life. Using him to help Chen Xing refine himself into a corpse, the ingenuity of it was indeed high.

Seeing that Liu Longgang had turned into a mindless zombie, Chen Xing had a little more confidence in his plan.

As if thinking of something again, Chen Xing condensed a wisp of corpse energy at his fingertip, and then flicked it, hitting Liu Longgang's body.

"Come here," Chen Xing ordered.

Liu Longgang remained unmoved, still gnawing on Wang Laowu's corpse.

"It seems that even if it was my corpse energy that turned him into a zombie, he won't be used by me," Chen Xing thought to himself.

Back then, he had used this to deceive Feng Liuhen, so he could achieve such achievements in a short period of time.

Liu Longgang had already gnawed Wang Laowu's body beyond recognition, and his body was also stained red with blood.

Then, he stood up straight, sniffing wildly in the room, then jumped to Li Xiaohu's corpse, crawled down, and bit into it.

Seeing this, Chen Xing revealed a look of doubt. Logically speaking, he was standing at the door, so he should be easier to spot than a dead person, but the result was beyond his expectations.

Chen Xing stepped into the house, and the zombie Liu Longgang didn't react at all. Chen Xing came to the zombie Liu Longgang, and he still didn't react.

"It seems that it's not without gains. Zombies infected by my corpse energy completely don't notice me, or rather, they treat me as one of their own."

"That's good too. Although I can't control him, he won't pose a threat to me."

Thinking of this, Chen Xing stood up and left. Before leaving, he closed the door of the house, letting him develop well and give the people of the town a surprise.

"I didn't expect to have such gains from coming here to kill Wang Laowu. This trip was really worth it!" Chen Xing's figure gradually disappeared into the wind and snow.

At this moment, heavy snow was falling in Black Stone Town, and the wind was howling. There wasn't a single person on the street.

Every household's doors and windows were tightly closed, but occasionally, laughter could be heard from inside.

Chen Xing, alone, walked in the boundless wind and snow, leaving the South City area.

In the stormy weather, Chen Xing didn't see a single person along the way in the entire South City area.

A thick layer of snow had already fallen on his body, and the snow on the ground had already covered his ankles. Chen Xing walked past, leaving a string of footprints.

Entering the central area of Black Stone Town, Chen Xing walked along a street. Directly in front of the street was a delicate pavilion.

The top of the pavilion was already covered with a thick layer of snow, as if covering it with a thick white quilt.

"Creak... Creak..."

Chen Xing stepped on the thick snow and came to the bottom of the pavilion. There was also some snow blown by the wind under the pavilion, but it was much less than outside.

In the middle of the pavilion was a well.

Chen Xing stopped in front of the well and looked inside.

"This is the water source in the central area," Chen Xing muttered to himself.

Immediately, he threw the corpse pearl into the well.

The moment the corpse pearl was thrown into the well, corpse energy permeated out, and in a very short time, it dyed the water in the entire well pitch black.

Then, Chen Xing recalled the corpse pearl and placed it back in his sea of qi to recover.

At this moment, looking at the water in the well again, it had gradually returned to its original color, but there was a faint, strange smell in it that lingered for a long time.

Then, Chen Xing left here and headed to the North City area.

What he had to do was to pollute the entire water source of Black Stone Town. At that time, the mortals in Black Stone Town would definitely not be able to resist the corpse poison. At that time, with so many zombies, relying solely on the defense force of Black Stone Town, they would definitely not be able to hold it. At that time, they would have to draw manpower from the nearby towns of Black Stone Town, and this would be Chen Xing's best chance to escape.

Such corpse poison might be effective for mortals, but for Spiritual Masters, the effect might not be so significant.

After all, Spiritual Masters have spiritual power in their bodies, and Spiritual Masters can completely rely on the spiritual power in their bodies to remove corpse energy.

Finally, Chen Xing infected the water source in the North City area with corpse energy.

"What remains is to wait," Chen Xing murmured to himself.

Then, he found a place in the North City area and hid, waiting for things to ferment.

Time slowly passed, and in the blink of an eye, it was the next day.

Two residents of Black Stone Town were drawing water by the well.

"Why do I feel like this water has some kind of smell?" one person said, putting the water to his nose and smelling it.

"Really? Let me smell it." The person next to him heard this, came over, put his nose to the water, and sniffed a few times.

"I don't smell anything," the person said.

"No smell?" That person put the water to his nose again and smelled it, but it seemed like there was no smell again.

"Sigh... maybe I've been too tired lately, and even my nose isn't working properly." As he said this, he carried two buckets of water and left.

Seeing this, the other person didn't think too much, drew the water, and also left.

"Achoo..." On the way, that person sneezed.

"I've caught another cold. I'll go to Wang the doctor to get some medicine after dinner," that person muttered to himself, gradually walking away.

Arriving home, he boiled water to cook, and after eating, he felt sleepy, so he took another nap. He only woke up leisurely when the sky gradually darkened.

"I feel weak all over," he felt cold all over and had no energy.

He touched his forehead with his hand, and it was very hot.

"I have a fever. I have to hurry up and get some medicine before it gets dark," that person said, putting on his clothes and going out.

It started snowing again outside.

He tightened his robe and quickened his pace towards the Hall of Health.

As he got closer, he saw that the Hall of Health was brightly lit, and some people were busy inside.

With some curiosity, he entered the door.

"Hello, I seem to have a fever, please get me some medicine," he came to the counter and said to the doctor inside.

"Another one!" the person inside said.

"Ah? Are there other people with fevers ahead?" that person asked.

"Look, those are all of them, line up," the doctor said.

That person looked in the direction the doctor was pointing, and saw more than a dozen people waiting there.

Just at this moment, he felt cold all over, and his body gradually began to twitch.

"Hey, are you okay?" the doctor asked when he saw this situation.

"Roar..." The answer he got was a beast-like roar.

Then, that person suddenly pounced on the crowd.

Chaos erupted. Black Stone Town was in complete chaos.

Zombies were appearing everywhere, and some people who had not been infected with corpse poison were quickly attacked.

By the time Li the Prefectural Governor learned of the news, Black Stone Town was in complete chaos.
