Chapter 199 Corpse Puppet and Nameless Body Refining Technique

The change in the jade gourd was beyond Ye Chunyang's expectation. Although he guessed that this treasure would have a slight restraining effect on ghost power, he never thought that it could contain the white skeleton.

But he didn't have time to be surprised at this time, and his expression suddenly changed again.

After the white skeleton entered the jade gourd, the ghost king who was originally sealed in it actually fluctuated violently. Before he could be prepared, he suddenly sat in the white skeleton with a whoosh.

This scene happened too fast, so Ye Chunyang couldn't be prepared. When his soul escaped into the jade gourd, the ghost king and the skeleton calmed down one after another.

Or it can be said that the ghost king's consciousness at this moment has invaded the body of the skeleton, and the two have merged into one.

Ye Chunyang was extremely shocked.

After years of sealing, the ghost king still had ghost power, but the evil spirit had dissipated. Unexpectedly, he still had such a strong consciousness, taking advantage of the white skeleton being restrained, and succeeded in taking over the body in one fell swoop.

Looking at the "ghost king" carefully, Ye Chunyang frowned.

The other party took over the white skeleton. He didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse. Before taking over, he could suppress it with the jade gourd's restraint on ghost power. Now that the two merged, it was afraid of a potential hidden danger.

After a moment of hesitation, he urged the soul-refining technique and examined the white skeleton with a powerful consciousness.

There was indeed only the breath of the ghost king on it, but perhaps because it was sealed in the jade gourd for a long time, the ghost king's consciousness was also very weak at this time.

Ye Chunyang touched his chin, and the spell suddenly changed, and his consciousness rushed into the consciousness of the "ghost king".

This is a method called "searching for the soul" in the soul-refining technique, which can absorb the other party's memory through the consciousness. The ghost king suddenly merged with the white skeleton. For Ye Chunyang, it was not known whether it was a blessing or a curse. He must grasp the situation before he can customize a plan that is beneficial to him.

Fortunately, both the ghost king and the white skeleton are now restrained by the power of the jade gourd, and they can't exert any strength at all. Ye Chunyang can easily penetrate into the other party's consciousness.

...

An hour later.

Ye Chunyang's soul returned to his body, and he sat on the stone platform with a frown, looking a little gloomy.

The ghost king's consciousness had merged with the skeleton. When he was detecting the ghost king's consciousness just now, he naturally obtained information about the latter. It turned out that the skeleton was actually a corpse puppet.

The corpse puppet was originally a kind of corpse refining technique in the ghost way, which turned the dead into living corpses. It was extremely evil and vicious, but this skeleton was completely different from ordinary corpse puppets. Ordinary corpse puppets were controlled by people, but this skeleton was transformed by the magic of the technique.

The body of this skeleton was the young man in white that Ye Chunyang had seen before.

This person had a strange technique. Because of the broken soul, Ye Chunyang did not find out how this person obtained this technique. He only knew that once this technique was successful, he could cultivate himself into a saint and have a lifespan beyond the same level.

However, this method was incomplete. During the cultivation, the young man in white did not know what went wrong, and his body gradually turned into a half-human, half-ghost monster.

Later, the young man in white found that he could slow down his transformation by devouring immortal cultivators, so he captured and killed foundation-building cultivators nearby.

On the other hand, he was afraid that he would not be able to control his transformation into a corpse, so he thought of a win-win strategy, finding this place of transformation to seal himself and prevent the spread of corpse qi in his body.

While trying every means to control his transformation into a corpse, he used the spirit-tailed marten to lure the cultivators to come, and then used the spirit-raising wood as a trap, waiting for an opportunity to devour the other party.

Ye Chunyang could not help but glance at the spirit-tailed marten huddled in the corner, his face full of strangeness.

When the cultivation reaches the mana stage, there is the ability to transform monsters and fossils into spirits. The higher the cultivation of the enlightener, the stronger the monster's intelligence.

The young man in white had reached the stage of magic power before he turned into a corpse. This spirit-tailed marten was his spiritual pet. Even if he could only give this spirit-tailed marten some intelligence, how could Zhang Sanqi and others deal with it?

After the young man in white turned into a corpse, he became a half-human and half-ghost creature, with a ghost aura on his body. It was precisely because the spirit-tailed marten had the aura of the young man in white that Ye Chunyang alarmed the ghost king when he passed by this place.

Thinking of this, Ye Chunyang felt a little cold on his back.

Curiosity really kills the cat. If he had not been alert, he would have become the meat in the belly of this corpse puppet.

Although he now relies on the magic weapon of the jade gourd to subdue this beast, the ghost king has merged with it. I don’t know what changes will happen.

However, what surprised Ye Chunyang a little was that when he absorbed the memory of the corpse puppet, he also obtained the nameless method of self-cultivation and sainthood.

With the previous experience of the young man in white going astray, although Ye Chunyang coveted a lifespan that exceeded that of the same level, he did not dare to try rashly.

What surprised him was that this nameless spell contained some ghost magic for refining corpse puppets. As long as there were enough materials, many puppet incarnations could be refined, and even a cultivator could be refined into a living corpse!

Ye Chunyang would not do the evil thing of killing people and refining corpses, but he was very interested in the ghost magic for refining puppet incarnations.

Although the strength of these puppets would not be too high, they were better in number. Imagine if there were ten or eight puppets, wouldn't they have a great advantage in the future when people fight?

Thinking of this, he was happy in his heart, and concentrated his mind to study this method carefully.

"Since the corpse puppet has been transformed into a corpse, I wonder if I can drive this beast?"

Ye Chunyang suddenly had a thought in his mind, and his soul escaped into the jade gourd space again.

Looking at the corpse puppet, he pinched his hands to change the spell and recited a low spell, but the beast seemed to be uninspired and had no reaction at all.

He tried several times again, but still remained indifferent.

"Could it be that my cultivation is not deep enough to drive this corpse puppet?" Ye Chunyang frowned.

This corpse puppet was originally a mana period cultivator. It was taken into the jade gourd because it was restrained and unable to exert its strength. It was normal for him to be unable to drive it with his foundation-building cultivation.

But being unable to control this beast is like carrying an unpredictable hidden danger with him, which may bring him danger at any time. He still needs to improve his cultivation as soon as possible to control it.

"It seems that I have to intensify my cultivation in the future."

Ye Chunyang took a deep breath and adjusted his direction.

Having decided on the target, Ye Chunyang did not want to stay here any longer. He sacrificed the Qingsi Chan and was about to break through the mud hole and escape, but at this time he paused, looked back at the spirit-tailed marten, and put it into the spirit beast bag.

...

Outside the fog, Zhang Sanqi and others woke up faintly and sat on the ground looking at each other blankly.

"Two senior brothers, what happened to us?"

The first one to wake up was the girl, but it seemed that the poison had not been cleared, and her face was still confused.

One of them patted his forehead and said, "It seems that we were knocked unconscious by the spirit-tailed marten. Are you two okay?"

The two shook their heads and used their own skills to expel the poison.

But at this time, the girl suddenly exclaimed in surprise and looked at Zhang Sanqi and said, "Brother Zhang, what do you think this is?"

Zhang Sanqi and another person hurried over and saw a furry "little white mouse" lying beside them, looking extremely submissive.

"Hey, isn't this the spirit-tailed marten? This beast seems to have escaped after knocking us unconscious. How could it be here?" The man next to him was full of surprise.

As if he had guessed something, he looked at Zhang Sanqi and suddenly showed admiration, saying, "Brother Zhang is worthy of being a candidate for the inner door assessment. We can't catch this beast even if we join hands. Brother Zhang can not only take it down by himself, but also detoxify us. Junior brother admires you!"

Zhang Sanqi was stunned.

He was also stunned by the spirit-tailed marten before, so how could he catch this beast? Could it be that some senior helped him to get what he wanted?

"This... No, it's not..."

Zhang Sanqi opened his mouth to explain, but the two saw that he seemed to be modest, and quickly complimented him: "Brother, don't be modest. Your Taoism is far superior to ours. It's natural for you to catch this little monster. My brother and I are really ashamed of ourselves!"

Zhang Sanqi was dumbfounded.

He really couldn't understand how this spirit-tailed marten could run to his side, and at this time, this monster was so submissive, without any weirdness before. Which senior helped him to catch this beast in secret?

Zhang Sanqi was really confused!

However, seeing the two people's flattering expressions, he was very happy in his heart, and said with a proud face: "Thank you for the compliment. I don't know how I managed to capture this beast. But if it weren't for your help, I would have returned empty-handed again. The reward I promised you before will not be reduced at all."

The two were delighted to hear this, and all kinds of exaggerated compliments were endless.

Listening to the two people's praise, Zhang Sanqi felt like a fairy.

But he was puzzled in his heart, wondering which senior helped him. If he was lucky enough to meet him one day, he would definitely repay him well.

Thinking of this, Zhang Sanqi was also happy to sit back and enjoy the fruits of his labor. He returned to Huaxuemen happily with the Spirit Tail Marten, ready to hand in his assessment results and enter the inner gate.

…

The senior who helped Zhang Sanqi catch the spirit-tailed marten was naturally Ye Chunyang, but at this time he had already returned to the Chunyang Cave at the bottom of the Jingxin Lake, and was in seclusion to study the ghost-way corpse-refining technique.

The more deeply he practiced this technique, the more Ye Chunyang discovered the wonders of controlling spirits.

But at present, the materials were insufficient, and it was not enough to sacrifice the puppet, so after becoming familiar with the technique, he carried out another important thing-opening the furnace to refine the marrow-washing pill.

This matter has been delayed for a long time. Now the medicinal materials have been prepared in sufficient quantities. The marrow-washing flower absorbs the essence day and night in the place where the spiritual fluid condenses on the ground. At this time, it also has hundreds of years of ingredients, which is enough to support him to refine the pill.

Ye Chunyang has been looking forward to the awakening of Ling Kun.

I wonder if this beast can wake up immediately after taking the marrow-washing pill?

Thinking of this, he immediately sacrificed the three true fires and began the boring journey of refining pills...

One year later.

Ye Chunyang walked out of the quiet room, holding a small green bottle, and walked quickly to the spirit pet room.

Pushing open the door of the stone chamber, Ling Kun was sleeping quietly in the spirit gathering array, emitting a faint blue light.

Ye Chunyang did not hesitate, took out a marrow cleansing pill and fed it to him, then sat quietly and observed.

Ling Kun did not move for a long time.

Ye Chunyang frowned, thinking that maybe a single marrow cleansing pill was not enough to wake up this beast?

He took out several more pills for Ling Kun to take, and continued to wait patiently.

However, an hour later, Ling Kun still showed no signs of waking up.

"Is it possible that the true spirit blood in Ling Kun's body is too strong, and the marrow cleansing pill cannot wake it up?"

Ye Chunyang's face was a little ugly. It seemed that he needed to study the pill formula again to wake up this beast.

With a sigh, he left this place silently.

As the stone door closed, the spirit pet room became quiet again.

But Ye Chunyang didn't know that not long after he left, a golden light suddenly flashed here, but this light was particularly short-lived, and disappeared after a flash.
