Chapter 73 Mission Completed

"Gone."

"Are two powerful zombie kings locked in a fierce battle here?"

"Find~~"

The cultivators who arrived one after another were all excited and thrilled.

They wanted to find the whereabouts of the Zombie King.

After all, these two powerful zombie kings must be found. Some people have designs on them, while others worry that the zombie kings will wreak havoc on the world.

Cultivators from all sides, each with their own agenda, began their search.

Among those who came was Lin Fengjiao.

"These two corpse kings have probably become quite powerful."

Lin Fengjiao's expression was solemn as she continuously searched for any remaining traces of energy at the scene.

He was horrified to discover that all the zombies in Tengteng Town had disappeared.

It's probably related to the two zombie kings from the previous battle.

"Huh, the aura of the senior brother?"

Soon, Lin Fengjiao sensed a familiar aura from a fellow disciple.

It was the aura of the eldest brother, Shi Jian.

This surprised him, and then something occurred to him.

"Could it be that Senior Brother is fighting two Corpse Kings?"

Lin Fengjiao's expression changed slightly, and she directly used the sect's secret communication method to send a message to her senior brother to inquire.

Not long after, Shi Jian replied to the message.

A paper crane made of talisman paper emitted Shi Jian's voice.

"Junior brother, you don't need to investigate further."

"The two Corpse King senior brothers will handle this."

Hearing Shi Jian's voice, Lin Fengjiao breathed a sigh of relief.

With the senior brother around, the two corpse kings shouldn't be able to cause any trouble.

After all, the eldest brother is already at the pinnacle of the mortal realm and could ascend to the ranks of immortals at any time.

It's not a simple matter to just inform the Patriarch, appeal to the Heavenly Court, and ask the Patriarch to use his connections to get a job in the Heavenly Court.

So after receiving the reply, he wasn't worried at all and turned around and went back.

As for other cultivators, it's simply impossible for them to pursue this goal.

Shi Jian had already left this place and gone to another location.

However, the old Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain, having guessed something, immediately went to Maoshan to meet the purple-robed sect leader.

"Old Taoist Zhang, what brings you to my Maoshan Mountain?"

The purple-robed sect leader looked at the old Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain who had come to visit with a surprised expression.

The old celestial master laughed and said, "We haven't seen each other for decades. Is it not wrong for this old Taoist to come and visit an old friend when he has nothing else to do?"

"Ha, you think I don't understand you?"

The purple-robed celestial master sneered, a hint of disdain in his voice, "Didn't you come here specifically for those two newly born corpse kings?"

"Just ask directly if you want to know. I might tell you if I feel like it."

The purple-robed Celestial Master sat there, completely unperturbed.

The old master wasn't embarrassed at all. He took out a wine pot from his pocket and handed it over with a smile.

Swish!

In the blink of an eye, the wine pot fell into the hands of the purple-robed sect leader, who quickly put it into his robes, a look of "you're so sensible" on his face.

"Can we talk about it now?" the old master asked with a faint smile.

The purple-robed celestial master coughed twice and said in a serious tone, "If you had good wine, you would have brought it out earlier. Why waste my time?"

"It's alright to tell you. Those two corpse kings were probably caused by my eldest disciple. It seems he has broken through to become a Celestial Master."

The purple-robed sect leader wore a proud expression as he said this.

The old Celestial Master was taken aback upon hearing this: "Your eldest disciple, Shi Jian, has broken through to the Celestial Master level?"

This was indeed somewhat unexpected; even the old master was surprised.

He frowned slightly and asked doubtfully, "Those two Corpse Kings, could they have been made by your eldest disciple? That shouldn't be possible, I sensed that the Corpse Kings' aura is at least two thousand years old."

"I don't know about that, but you know there's an imperial mausoleum beneath Tengteng Town. One of the figures there should be the emperor in the mausoleum, possessing a trace of the power to prevent bones from decaying."

The purple-robed sect leader paused for a moment, then continued, "The other Corpse King must have been obtained by my disciple, Shi Jian."

"Sigh, you've taken on a fine disciple. Why don't I, an old Taoist priest, have a disciple like this?"

The old master looked on with envy, but thinking of his own disciple made him furious.

"How about we discuss something?"

Upon hearing this, the purple-robed sect leader immediately interrupted.

"Don't even think about it. Shi Jian is the next leader of Maoshan. In a few days, I will announce to all my fellow practitioners that we are preparing to step down."

"Don't even think about it. The patriarchs of Maoshan are always watching him. Anyone who dares to make a move will be in trouble with the patriarchs of Maoshan."

The purple-robed sect leader issued a warning.

The old master shrugged, saying it was just talk and he couldn't possibly actually kidnap someone.

Moreover, it's impossible for them to be abducted. Such disciples are always watched over by the patriarchs of various sects and schools.

If you want to mess with them, then you should directly confront all the patriarchs of Maoshan.

... ...

the other side.

In a cave in a desolate mountain.

Shi Jian sat in the cave, with the female zombie standing beside him.

Seeing that her red wedding dress was tattered, Shi Jian took out the materials and began to make a brand new wedding dress for her.

He had enough materials to craft magical artifacts, and he had never used the artifact crafting techniques he had learned.

I'll give it a try and see how it goes.

After three days and three nights of refining, a wedding dress of magical artifact quality was completed.

"go with!"

He raised his hand and pointed, and the wedding dress flew out and landed on the female zombie.

As she put on her wedding dress, the corpse energy on her body merged with the dress, making the dress even more defensive.

It's nice that it can be repaired by the corpse energy even when it's damaged.

"Not bad!"

Shi Jian nodded in satisfaction.

He then retrieved the headless corpse from the storage space.

As soon as it was released, the corpse immediately prepared to escape.

However, he was firmly imprisoned by Shi Jian.

"Still want to run?"

Shi Jian sneered and ordered, "Red Robe, absorb the essence of the Undying Bone on its body."

As soon as she finished speaking, the woman in red opened her mouth and inhaled.

Streams of crystalline energy were drawn from the corpse.

That's a trace of the indestructible essence that only those who have evolved to the point of indestructible bones possess. It can strengthen bones and allow one to cultivate an indestructible body, becoming even more powerful.

The female zombie possesses a physical body and follows the path of the drought demon. Her pure, unyielding essence allows her entire skeleton to undergo a stronger enhancement and transformation.

His strength had reached a new level, and the black and red corpse aura around his body had become even more intense, making him appear from a distance as if shrouded in a layer of black and red flames.

"And the head of that corpse."

Shi Jian pondered for a moment, but ultimately decided against risking letting the female zombie absorb it.

Because there was a corpse pill inside the head of that emperor's corpse, if the female zombie were to devour and absorb it now, he would probably need to refine and control it again.

We haven't used blood essence to refine and control it yet, so we'll put it aside for now.

The best course of action is to refine it with one's own essence and blood after returning.

"You go back first."

Shi Jian put the red clothes back into the stone coffin and stored them in the system space.

Then he took out the head and began refining it, digging out the corpse core inside.

"Kakaka~~"

The head opened and closed its mouth, spewing out plumes of black smoke.

However, it was blocked by lightning, and Shi Jian eventually split open its skull and dug out a crystal clear corpse pill from inside.

This corpse pill was crystal clear, as smooth and flawless as a jade bead.

There are still traces of black and red impurities inside. If they are completely dissolved, it will truly become an incorruptible skeleton, truly immortal and indestructible.

"The corpse pill contains impurities and a chaotic zombie consciousness."

Thunder surged in Shi Jian's palm, directly refining the consciousness within.

After doing all this, he stored the Corpse Pill in his system space.

Once we get back, we can properly refine the female zombie, and then feed her the Corpse Pill to achieve even greater progress.

Perhaps it can leapfrog into the level of a drought demon.

"Ok?"

Just as he finished his work, Shi Jian received a message from his sect.

"The sect leader wants me to go back?"

Shi Jian was taken aback for a moment, then frowned.

He vaguely understood what the sect leader was going to do.

[Ding! Congratulations on completing your cameo role. Would you like to return for the settlement?]

At that moment, a notification sounded.

Shi Jian understood that his cameo role was complete.

You can go back now.

"Let's go back to Maoshan first."

Shi Jian muttered to himself, then rose and transformed into a bolt of lightning, disappearing into the horizon.
