Chapter 196: Heavenly Devil Corpse

Since the Hundred Soul Banner had already been made, there was no need for sacrificing souls to refine a new one. Lin Xuan naturally had no reason to waste this treasure.

After memorizing the relevant parts of the “Profound Demon Scripture”, Lin Xuan then began his cultivation.

Although the Yin attributed Spiritual Power in his body was transformed by a Magic Art, it was based on the Nine Heavens Profound Art, and was purer and more vigorous than an ordinary ghost cultivator of the same level.

Backed by ample Spiritual Power, learning this Magic Art would naturally not be difficult. After all, it was just some specific applications of the Hundred Soul Banner.

Lin Xuan practiced this Magic Art while taking pills and cultivating every day. And just a month later, he achieved a slight success.

So he took out the Hundred Soul Banner, and all kinds of Yin Ghosts came out along with a Ghostly Fog, which can resort to all kinds of changes. Its power was simply not the same as before.

Of course, there was still more potential to be tapped in the future, but Lin Xuan was now eyeing another Magic Art!

Heavenly Devil Corpse!

Simply put, it was a type of corpse refining technique.

In fact, even the general ghost cultivator would usually refine several walking corpses, and iron corpses as helpers.

However, although these zombies made by ordinary corpse refining techniques were invaluable and powerful by mortal standards. in the Cultivation World, even ordinary Spirit Tools could kill them. So they were quite weak.

If one wanted to refine zombies that were helpful in fighting, not only did one need a large amount of Spirit Stones and Spirit Herbs, but also dozens of years of cultivation.

The effort spent was definitely not much less than refining a powerful Spirit Tool, or a Magic Artifact.

Therefore, although corpse refinement was a powerful magical power among the Ghost Dao Magic Arts, few people have cultivated it to a high level throughout the ages.

However, the Heavenly Devil Corpse technique recorded in the Profound Demon Scripture was different.

The general corpse refinement method is to use the corpses of mortals, preferably cultivators as a material. Then supplementing them with various kinds of Spirit Medicine according to the Magic Art.

Therefore, it required a lot of Spirit Stones and painstaking effort.

But in this Heavenly Devil Corpse Art, one would directly look for zombies, who absorbed underground Yin Qi and had already attained spirituality.

As everyone knew, it was not easy for a person to become a zombie under natural conditions after death. It needed all kinds of coincidences combined together to obtain that result.

First of all, the place where the corpse was buried must be a spot with dense Yin Qi, preferably a place with a Yin Vein.

And Yin Veins were even rarer to find than Spirit Veins.

Secondly, this person’s birthday must be the Ghost Festival of the seventh month of the lunar calendar. Only those born on this day could have the qualifications to become zombies.

Thirdly, within a few years after the death of this person, their body must not rot, otherwise, with no flesh and only the skeleton remaining, it was naturally impossible to become a zombie.

Therefore, the chances of a zombie attaining spirituality under natural conditions were really almost zero.

The general ghost cultivator wouldn’t have this kind of Magic Art, even if they learned it by chance, it was difficult to find zombies.

However, once found, this kind of zombie that attained spirituality didn’t need a lot of time spent nurturing it. As it has its own magical powers that could match cultivators, it only needed to recognize its master according to the Magic Art and then could be used directly.

It was really the best way to improve one’s strength in a short period of time.

If one could get dozens of zombies that were equivalent to the Foundation Establishment Initial Stage, one may even have the power to fight a Core Formation Stage Expert.

Lin Xuan thought with great joy.

After reading the part relevant to the Heavenly Devil Corpse technique. Lin Xuan showed an expression of disappointment on his face and sighed. As expected, there was no such thing as perfect under the heavens.

It turned out that the Heavenly Devil Corpse technique was also divided into several layers, each layer could create zombies with different degrees of cultivation.

Lin Xuan took a look, with his current strength, he could only learn the first layer quickly at most.

And on the First Layer, only a dozen zombies equivalent to the Spirit Condensation Stage could be controlled.

He was slightly disappointed in his heart, but no matter what, these helpers were also useful. If he met a powerful enemy, he could use them as cannon fodder to buy time.

It was important for people to be content with what they have, other ghost cultivators require dozens of years to nurture zombies. Compared to their own efforts, this was really negligible.

Lin Xuan would naturally not let go of such a useful magical power.

In addition, he didn’t need to worry about the source of zombies. There were many in the valley of corpses.

The only thing he needed to worry about was that he led those spies of the major forces towards it last time, using the hands of zombies to kill them. It has been a long time since those people have not returned. Their Sect elders would surely try to find them, and would probably destroy those zombies…

In any case, this kind of magical power was always very useful, so Lin Xuan began its cultivation.

He didn’t know if the First Layer was just particularly simple. As it took him only a few days to achieve it.

So easy.

Lin Xuan found it somewhat unbelievable.

He even wondered if he had made a mistake.

However, after taking out the “Profound Demon Scripture” and reading it carefully several times, it was really the case.

This unexpected harvest naturally made Lin Xuan surprised and happy, so he began to wonder if he really had any special talent in corpse refining techniques.

He concentrated wholeheartedly and began practicing the Second Layer.

According to the records in the Jade slip, after mastering the Second Layer, one could control zombies equivalent to the Foundation Establishment Stage. If he remembered correctly, there were more than a dozen such powerful monsters in the valley of zombies.

If he subdued them, not only could he easily kill cultivators of the same level, but even single-handedly challenge a Core Formation Stage Expert.

But only a day later, Lin Xuan gave up on its cultivation.

There was no other reason. When practicing the Second Layer, his Spiritual Qi seemed to be boiling, causing him to feel extreme pain!

Of course, he didn’t care about the pain, compared to when he was practicing the Yin-Yang Art, this was trivial.

However, what made Lin Xuan horrified is that this is basically a precursor to Qi Deviation. Forcibly cultivating it may lead to death, so he naturally stopped immediately.
