Refining Oneself Into A Corpse

Na Ling Tower.

Room 8, Block C.

At this moment, the night was already deep.

Chen Xing lay on the bed, his mind sinking into his Qi Sea.

In Chen Xing's Qi Sea, Yin energy swirled, almost solidifying, with the Corpse Pearl suspended above the Yin-Underworld Tricolor Lotus, slowly rotating.

This was the Corpse Pearl autonomously cultivating without Chen Xing's active intervention.

Although its rotation was extremely slow, it was undeniable that it was indeed cultivating at all times, increasing Chen Xing's cultivation.

Just then, a wisp of Corpse Qi flew out from the Corpse Pearl, out of the Qi Sea, and wandered through Chen Xing's meridians, strengthening his body.

"The Corpse Pearl is indeed my Natal Spiritual Treasure, perfectly matched with my current state."

"I can now be said to possess endless lifespan, and with the accumulation of time, I can completely become invincible."

"Moreover, the Corpse Pearl has the ability to cultivate autonomously, coupled with the Yin-Underworld Tricolor Lotus, which allows my cultivation to improve every moment."

The combination of the Yin-Underworld Tricolor Lotus and the Corpse Pearl can be described as complementing each other.

"Although the Corpse Pearl can absorb the Yin energy released by the Yin-Underworld Tricolor Lotus during ordinary sitting, lying, walking, and standing, the effect is really too slow."

"If I can find a Spiritual Treasure that complements them to form a killing move, allowing them to cultivate in their peak state at all times, then my cultivation speed will definitely be even more astonishing."

Chen Xing thought to himself, wanting to try his luck here in the next few days.

Although he knew the chances were slim, if this idea succeeded, his gains would be unimaginable.

"Hopefully, I can find a Corpse Dao Spiritual Treasure here, and then see if I can try to form a killing move."

Now was the cultivation state where he was cultivating at full speed.

Strands of Yin energy were absorbed by the Corpse Pearl and transformed into Corpse Qi, strengthening the Corpse Pearl, and then from time to time, Corpse Qi flowed from the Corpse Pearl to Chen Xing's limbs, strengthening his body.

The time of cultivation passed quickly. Before he knew it, it was already Chen Shi (7-9 AM). Chen Xing opened his eyes. Although he had been cultivating all night, he did not feel tired at all.

A glimmer of dark light flashed in his eyes as Chen Xing sat up.

He sank his consciousness into his Qi Sea again. At this moment, the Yin energy in the Qi Sea had become somewhat thin, and the Yin-Underworld Tricolor Lotus was still continuously producing Yin energy.

Part of it was absorbed by the Corpse Pearl, and part of it was submerged in the Qi Sea.

"The Corpse Pearl seems to have grown larger again, and the power of my physical body has also become stronger. The more I cultivate, the more I can't help myself!"

The increase in strength made Chen Xing feel physically and mentally happy.

He got up and left the room.

The sky was gloomy, and the wind was howling.

"It's going to snow again," Chen Xing muttered, and then closed the door.

He looked at the few rooms next to him, all of which had their doors tightly closed.

Afterward, Chen Xing went downstairs and left Na Ling Tower.

Now was already the last month of the cold season, and it had been some time since he left Black Rock Town.

During this time, because of the evil deeds Chen Xing committed in Black Rock Town, Corpse Dao Spiritualists were not having a good time in the Great Wu Dynasty.

They lived a life of hiding and seeking, and some Corpse Dao Spiritualists naturally thought of leaving the Great Wu Dynasty and going to other countries.

And Borderguard Town, as a border town, naturally became a choice for some Corpse Dao Spiritualists to leave.

Chen Xing left Na Ling Tower and walked along a small alley. The remaining snow in the alley was piled up on both sides of the road, leaving a passage in the middle for pedestrians to pass through.

He didn't have many spirit stones left, so naturally he wouldn't choose to go to the Spirit Treasure Pavilion.

He planned to try his luck at those street stalls.

Although those things were prepared for low-level cultivators, it would be good to broaden his horizons even if he couldn't use them.

What if he was lucky and found a treasure?

Chen Xing thought to himself, gradually walking out of this small alley and onto a wider street.

This street had no snow at all, and the ground was very clean and tidy. Black lines appeared on the bluestone pavement.

On both sides of the street, some rogue spiritualists were already sitting in the cold wind, waiting for customers to come.

This street was specially set up for these rogue spiritualists to trade.

Chen Xing's position was in the middle of this street. He looked around, the right side was the entrance, and the left side was the exit.

At this moment, it was still early, and Chen Xing decided to walk to the left to see if he encountered anything that interested him, it wouldn't be too late to find a way.

Chen Xing didn't walk fast, stopping in front of almost every stall. Although some things were only needed by first-rank spiritualists, it was indeed eye-opening for Chen Xing.

After all, he had only cultivated for a short time, and he had only seen some things in the books of Black Rock Town. This time, he also saw the real thing.

Walking and stopping, one or two hours passed, and Chen Xing finally reached the exit.

Looking back at this moment, there were more people on the street.

Chen Xing had seen a lot of things along the way, some he recognized and some he didn't, but he didn't like any of these things because they were useless to him.

"Alas... I wonder how many people here have the idea of finding a bargain. If I could easily find a bargain, that would be strange," Chen Xing thought to himself, but he didn't leave here.

After all, when he first came, there were not many people here, and there were not many vendors on both sides of the road. Now that there were more people, he naturally had to look at it again from the beginning.

Turning around again, he entered the crowd.

Just as Chen Xing walked halfway, he suddenly saw that the crowd in front of him was a bit dense, and there was also a noise coming from inside.

"I really want to buy this little thing, don't ask for an exorbitant price!" A clear and melodious voice came.

As soon as the girl's voice fell, another voice came: "One thousand spirit stones, not one less."

"What's the situation, is he forcing someone to buy something that they don't want?"

"Hehe, this Human-Faced Monkey is just an ordinary first-rank monster, and it's far from worth that many spirit stones."

"This Human-Faced Monkey is his spiritual pet, how could he say he would sell it?"

"This you just..."

Some people were arguing, and Chen Xing had a general understanding of the matter.

The story was that a girl took a fancy to the stall owner's spiritual pet and wanted to buy it to play with, but the stall owner's spiritual pet already had considerable intelligence. As long as there were enough opportunities in the future, it could completely advance to the second rank or even higher. The stall owner naturally couldn't bear to sell it.

The most important thing was that the girl was reluctant to spend a lot of money to buy it, but she wanted it, which led to the start of this dispute.

"Human-Faced Monkey, I have seen this monster in the books. The Human-Faced Monkey is also known as the Human-Faced Monkey. The face is generally smooth and delicate, and the color is light white. The face shape is similar to a human face, but there is a red vertical line in the middle of its forehead, which looks a bit strange."

"Human-Faced Monkey is also a good choice."

Chen Xing had already made up his mind, so he observed the development of the situation.

He judged that this farce would not last long.

Sure enough, after waiting for about a quarter of an hour, a team of Great Wu soldiers in armor came here to maintain order.

These vendors had all paid protection fees, otherwise, according to the rules of Borderguard Town, daring to set up a stall here without strong strength, it could only be said that they deserved to be robbed.

When the girl saw the arrival of the Great Wu army, she glared fiercely at the stall owner and left indignantly.

Chen Xing hid in a corner, covered in a black robe, with a hat covering his face, observing the development of the situation.

"If I'm not mistaken, that girl shouldn't give up easily. This Human-Faced Monkey is also considered a heterogeneous here," Chen Xing muttered in a low voice.

Most of the people here were low-level cultivators, and few raised spiritual pets, let alone Human-Faced Monkeys, which were uncommon monsters.

"That person's identity must not be simple," Chen Xing guessed.

Gradually, snowflakes began to fall in the sky. Some spiritualists, seeing this, hurriedly packed up their things and left.

Chen Xing sat motionless in the corner. In addition, he was wearing relatively worn-out clothes, so people would only think that he was a down-and-out beggar, and no one cared whether he left or not.

He used the corner of his eye to observe the stall owner who owned the Human-Faced Monkey.

He just saw him looking east and west. The pedestrians on the street had begun to gradually decrease due to the snow.

"Alas... It's really unlucky. After being tossed around by that bitch, I didn't sell anything," the man sighed helplessly and began to pack up the spiritual materials in front of him.

These spiritual materials were all first-rank spiritual materials, most of which were fruits and some wood spiritual materials.

"Squeak... Squeak Squeak..." Seeing that its master was unhappy, the Human-Faced Monkey also sensibly packed up.

"I don't know if I'm lucky or not. I actually found a Beast Controlling Spiritual Treasure here. When I went out to explore, I met this little guy again."

"After enslaving this little guy, I didn't expect this little guy to have the ability to find treasures. Relying on this little guy to find treasures, my cultivation has improved rapidly these days, and I have also saved a lot of money. When I have enough money, I will go to the Spirit Treasure Pavilion to exchange for a more powerful cultivation technique."

"The Qi Condensation Art, this kind of popular stuff, is no longer worthy of me."

The man thought to himself, but his hands didn't stop packing things up.

After a while, he put all the things into the bamboo basket behind him and left.

When Chen Xing saw the man leave, he moved his body after a while and followed.

In a place where they couldn't see, two figures also followed.

The man left this street and went straight along a small alley. He was going home.

Chen Xing stood at the entrance of the alley, looking at the three figures in front of him, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
