Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse-Chapter 51: Custom-Made Mid-Grade [Please Follow!]
The Mu Canglong and Liu Xiao that he hadn’t seen for several days were quite different from how they appeared in the sect, not to mention they were dressed in ordinary cloth, they had also concealed their aura completely. Only when standing right in front of them could you feel their aura fluctuations.
This sort of concealment effect could be due to a Tier One Middle Grade Talisman, or some kind of Middle Grade Elixir.
But this wasn’t worth delving into.
He just felt that from now on, he should be even more cautious. If the Heterodox Demons also have such talismans or elixirs and suddenly launch a surprise attack on him, it might not be as bad as that old cultivator of the Qi Cultivation Third Layer with a scar on his face, but he still might get hurt, and Heterodox Cultivators often use poison; who knows what strange poison he might get on him.
Liu Xiao took off the robe covering his face and asked, "What are you doing here, kid?"
"Buying some Corpse Nourishing Materials."
Wen Jiu did not hide it.
Both Mu Canglong and Liu Xiao treated him well, so there was no need to lie over such a small matter and create unnecessary strain. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
Mu Canglong reacted immediately because he had read the Yinzhou Corpse Nurturing Technique and knew about the Three Evil Corpse Nurturing Technique.
If he remembered correctly, to cultivate Three Evil Corpses, one had to start when the Black Corpse reached the pinnacle state.
Coming to this secret trade black market of the Heterodox Demons must be for the Three Evils Object, or materials to craft a Corpse Nurturing Coffin.
After all, such items from the Heterodox Dao are extremely scarce in Feixian Peak, you might have some luck getting less valuable things, but crafting a Corpse Nurturing Coffin, as well as obtaining the Three Evils Object, are commodities without a market in Feixian Peak.
"Are you preparing to craft a Corpse Nurturing Coffin?" Mu Canglong seeing that Wen Jiu didn’t elaborate further, did not expose his thoughts. But he speculated that Wen Jiu’s Black Corpse should be reaching the pinnacle state soon; otherwise, he wouldn’t start preparing this.
Wen Jiu nodded, "Earlier I earned some Spirit Stones at the Chen Clan Territory, and since the Black Corpse is about to break through to the pinnacle, I thought I’d craft the Corpse Nurturing Coffin sooner rather than later."
"Looks like you, kid, didn’t earn little." Mu Canglong joked. Someone once mentioned Wen Jiu to him, said that during a battle, he was hesitant and cowardly, but now it seems there might be other reasons.
As for the reasons, Mu Canglong didn’t bother to delve into it. After all, everyone has some secrets.
He was no exception.
Next, Mu Canglong raised his hand and shattered the heart of the unconscious Heterodox Demon and took out the storage bag for a detailed inspection. Finding nothing special, he tossed it to Wen Jiu.
"This Heterodox Demon was lured out by you, so the storage bag belongs to you."
Wen Jiu joyfully caught it, "Thank you, Steward Mu."
This is the perk of cultivating within the sect and having a good support network.
You can gain without taking action yourself.
However, this is also thanks to one’s demonstration because only by appropriately showing enough value can you receive someone else’s nurturing.
These things are always reciprocal.
Mu Canglong spoke again, handing over an identity token, "You, kid, can take my token to the Artifact Refining Tower, seek an Artifact Refiner to craft a Corpse Nurturing Coffin for you... What quality are you aiming for, kid?"
"Middle Grade." Wen Jiu answered truthfully.
Mu Canglong was taken aback.
Liu Xiao was also taken aback.
Good heavens.
This kid really made a fortune at the Chen Family.
Steward Mu pondered for a few moments, put the identity token away, and then took out a piece of ordinary-looking blue jade, seemingly a personal item, "There aren’t many Middle Grade Refiners at Feixian Peak; the most skilled one is Steward Lu Shi. You can take this to find him; he owes me a favor, so he will help you no matter what."
"This..."
Wen Jiu never expected that revealing a bit of truth would earn him such substantial support from Mu Canglong.
But Wen Jiu was not bashful either, the higher the quality of a Corpse Nurturing Coffin, the better, and this favor could be repaid later.
Following this.
Wen Jiu changed his address.
"Thank you, Brother Mu!"
Mu Canglong felt pleased upon seeing this, then waved his hand, "Hurry back, it’s getting late."
Wen Jiu nodded and then suddenly recalled what the scar-faced old cultivator had said earlier, "Brother Mu, by the way, the scar-faced old man mentioned something to me just now. Recently, someone from the Blood Robe Tower has been in the Demon Abyss, not sure what they’re stirring up, causing the demons and monsters in the Demon Abyss to become extremely irritable."
"Is that true?"
Mu Canglong’s face tensed, but he couldn’t help being thrilled.
And then said, "Good lad, I’ll credit you for this!"
"Then I wish you and Brother Liu the best of luck."
Having said that.
Wen Jiu used a Divine Movement Talisman and left swiftly.
As soon as Wen Jiu left.
Liu Xiao couldn’t help but say, "Wen Jiu, this kid’s Heterodox Talent is truly terrifying, he’s calm, composed, never rash, and he cares little about others’ criticisms... With such temperament and Heterodox Talent, his future achievements might be significant; he might be able to carve out a niche for himself at the main peak."
Mu Canglong glanced at Liu Xiao, and sternly said, "I remember you didn’t use to talk like this, didn’t you always say Heterodox Dao isn’t suitable for respectable venues... and is this the time to discuss this? Hurry up, find a place to perform Soul Searching on this guy. If we can verify his words, then this kid has helped us considerably."
These days, he had caught several Heterodox Demons and performed Soul Searching on them but found no clues.
Unexpectedly, as soon as this kid arrived, he brought along good fortune.
"Among the Heterodox Dao, this kid is the only one that can make it to the table, and I like him more the more I see him!" Liu Xiao chuckled, quickly hoisting the dead scar-faced old cultivator.
...
After leaving.
Wen Jiu first used the Blood Corpse Escape to retreat five miles, then headed towards Feixian Peak with the help of a Divine Movement Talisman.
On the way home, Wen Jiu examined the storage bag of the scarred old cultivator.
The storage bag contained a considerable number of Spirit Stones. Besides earning his own two hundred and fifty-plus, he still had over a hundred Low-grade Spirit Stones.
In addition, there was a Tier One Lower-grade Spiritual Artifact, along with a Yin Technique, and Ghost Cultivation techniques.
Its value was not low.
But Mu Canglong simply handed it over to him directly.
This kindness and generosity, Wen Jiu secretly kept in mind.
It will be repaid tenfold in the future!
What delighted Wen Jiu the most was that there was a complete formula for the preparation of Celestial Killing Water, and even a book of preparation insights.
As for whether it could be successful, with a daily settlement panel available, Wen Jiu was not worried about this at all.
Once experience is full, it naturally becomes successful.
If it’s difficult, it’s nothing more than spending a bit more time.
In this way.
He could manage both the Earthly Evil Yin Qi and Celestial Killing Water himself, saving a lot of trouble and eliminating the need to run around.
Soon.
Wen Jiu returned to Feixian Peak.
The journey was uneventful.
Upon returning to Feixian Peak and burying the Black Corpse in the Corpse Nourishing Land, the first thing he did was head to the Artifact Refining Tower situated north of Feixian Peak.
The Artifact Refining Tower is where the artifact refiners of Feixian Peak reside. It’s worth mentioning that artifact refiners’ status is on par with, if not slightly higher than, alchemy masters, because there is a fundamental difference between alchemy and artifact refining.
That is time.
An alchemy master can refine an elixir in a single furnace in just two or three days, and a single batch can yield ten or eight pills, with only extremely rare elixirs producing one or two pills at a time.
But artifact refiners are different; to create a Magical Artifact, they need at least ten to fifteen days, sometimes one or two months, or even a year or two. Therefore, cultivating an artifact refiner is particularly difficult.
Far more challenging than an alchemy master, so it is inevitable that Magical Artifacts cannot be mass-produced, which also means that the status of artifact refiners will not be low.
Soon.
Wen Jiu arrived at the Artifact Refining Tower.
When he inquired with the guard at the entrance of the Artifact Refining Tower, he deepened his understanding of Lu Shi’s formidable status in the Alchemy Tower.
First among those below the Elder.
A top-tier Tier One Middle Grade Refiner.
However, three years ago, he stopped refining for the sect’s disciples and focused on advancing to Tier One Top Grade, no matter how many Spirit Stones were offered.
Thus, Wen Jiu took out the green jade given by Mu Canglong, trusting that Mu Canglong did not give it to him without reason.
Sure enough.
After presenting the green jade, a disciple of Lu Shi soon led Wen Jiu directly to the sixth floor of the Artifact Refining Tower.
Feeling the heat of the furnace and hearing the clanging of forging, Wen Jiu went straight to the sixth floor to meet the broad-shouldered, brawny Lu Shi. His muscular body, paired with his stark white hair, was quite mismatched.
"Fellow Daoist Mu actually gave you this green jade, it seems your relationship with that guy is quite unusual." Lu Shi didn’t say much about the origin of the green jade, but casually put it into his storage bag.
Wen Jiu respectfully saluted, then took out the blueprint and materials to hand over to Lu Shi’s disciple, and referred to Mu Canglong as Brother Mu in the presence of others, "This disciple is an apprentice under Brother Mu’s command... I appreciate your efforts, Steward Lu."
Lu Shi nodded, his eyes became more earnest when Wen Jiu addressed Mu Canglong as Brother Mu. He picked up the blueprint and examined it carefully, speaking only after a long while: "No wonder he sent you to me, back then his father’s Corpse Nurturing Coffin was crafted by my master, and I assisted at his side. In all of Feixian Peak, even Deadman Peak, I am the one most familiar with Corpse Nurturing Coffins."
Upon hearing this.
Wen Jiu was overjoyed.
Lu Shi continued, "However, let me state upfront, I cannot guarantee it will be of exceptional quality, only that it will be a normal Tier One Middle Grade, as I only assisted my master in crafting the Corpse Nurturing Coffin back then."
"Thank you, Steward Lu."
Wen Jiu did not originally expect an exceptional quality.
Having one, would naturally be nice.
If not, Tier One Middle Grade would be sufficient.
Even a regular Tier One Middle Grade is enough for Wen Jiu to use for a long time, at least to cultivate the evil corpse to a higher state.
