Simplification System: From Perfect Arrow Skill to Immortal-Chapter 357 - 297-298: Blind Fools, Bu Tianzhi’s Shock, Yan Zhen’s Terrifying Power, The Birth of the Emperor Corpse
After withdrawing his Divine Sense from the space within the sheepskin scroll, Lin Chang’sheng began to study the routes marked on it.
Those routes wound through mountains and rivers, ultimately converging in a vast ocean.
"Looks like this isn’t too far from the Corpse King Sect."
Lin Chang’sheng murmured to himself—he’d been to the Corpse King Sect before, so he knew the general direction.
Just so happens it doesn’t conflict with his journey to the Demon Evil Sea.
Then, as Lin Chang’sheng hurried toward the location on the map, he also began refining corpse puppets.
If he could fuse together something beyond the King Corpse level after the refining, that would be worth it.
In Lin Chang’sheng’s storage bag, there were plenty of Nascent Soul Middle and Late Stage corpses.
He alone had four Nascent Soul Great Cultivators.
Among them were the Celestial Concealment Divine Master, Ling Yun Ascendant, Celestial Demon Ancestor, and Jiang Yuyan.
Su Changkong’s physical body was even Divinity Transformation Level.
If it weren’t for the fact that refining corpse puppets could only reach the cultivation level of the refiner, Lin Chang’sheng wouldn’t even bother starting with Nascent Soul corpse puppets.
If he could directly refine Su Changkong’s corpse puppet, he’d get something surpassing the King Corpse level right away.
"If I can use other corpses to fuse six top level king corpses, then fuse ten top level king corpses to create a terror that’s above king corpse level, that’d be incredible."
Idea in mind, Lin Chang’sheng performed the Corpse Refining Technique and got to work.
If he managed to fuse an existence beyond the king corpse level, he’d basically get a Divinity Transformation Stage corpse puppet fighter.
...
Great Yu, Cyan Stone City.
Because of the Demon Dao invasion, huge numbers of troops guarded the city gates throughout Great Yu.
Every passerby had to undergo strict inspection.
To prevent Demon Dao remnants from sneaking into the city.
At this moment, a pale, sickly-looking young woman arrived at the city gates.
After three days traveling, Yan Zhen finally reached Cyan Stone City, the nearest city to Mu City.
She was parched, almost severely dehydrated, so she looked utterly frail.
"Stop! Where’s this refugee from? Cyan Stone City doesn’t take in refugees!"
The guard saw Yan Zhen’s rundown appearance and immediately gave her a hard time.
"I’m not a refugee—I’m a resident of Mu City! I want to know what happened there, why did it end up like this?"
Yan Zhen stared wide-eyed, anxiously firing off the question.
Her mind swirled with countless doubts; she wanted someone to give her answers.
"Go on, go on—what do you think this place is? Beggars need to scram!"
The guard grew impatient and tried to drive Yan Zhen away.
But just then, the gate’s commanding officer spotted Yan Zhen’s pretty looks, stroked his beard, and strode over with tiger-like steps.
"What’s going on? Don’t you know soldiers and civilians are one family? A citizen needs help, so we step up. Miss, I’m Liu Huiwu, East Gate General of Cyan Stone City—whatever your questions are, I can answer them for you!"
Liu Huiwu looked Yan Zhen up and down—her curves were lush and inviting. Would be fun to play with.
First trick her into coming home, details later.
"General, I was unconscious for a while—just want to know what happened to Mu City. My home’s gone, I’ve got nowhere to stay, please, help me!"
Yan Zhen pleaded helplessly.
She’d always thought the things she saw when she was unconscious were just dreams. She was just an ordinary citizen in Mu City, used to make a living selling noodles.
As for that Empress in her memories, that was surely just a dream.
"It’s nothing, it’s nothing. Mu City ended up this way thanks to Demon Dao scum. But don’t worry, most of the Demon Dao leaders have been wiped out by us Southern Domain Cultivators. The few remaining aren’t a threat. If you have nowhere to stay now, come to my house. Once the relief silver arrives, you’ll have somewhere safe to live!"
Liu Huiwu puffed himself up, greed showing blatantly in his eyes.
But Yan Zhen kept her head down and didn’t notice, just thinking she’d run into a good man.
So Yan Zhen followed Liu Huiwu into the city.
As the two left, the guards started gossiping.
"General Liu doesn’t seem very picky, huh? Interested in a refugee?"
"What do you know? Sure, the girl looks a little rough now and her clothes are torn, but get her cleaned up—she’ll be a knockout!"
"You can tell she’s a beauty? Gotta admit, you’ve got sharp eyes!"
"You can tell by her figure. You’ll be floored when you see her later! You really think General Liu goes after just anybody?"
...
The guards kept up their gossip—all signs pointed to this not being Liu Huiwu’s first time scamming women.
After washing up and having some food at Liu Huiwu’s place, Yan Zhen looked completely revitalized—elegant, otherworldly, a true stunner.
"Yan Zhen! You’ve bathed and eaten—shouldn’t you show the general some gratitude?"
Liu Huiwu reached out to put his hands on Yan Zhen.
But in the blink of an eye, Yan Zhen dodged—her speed was shocking.
"Oh, turns out you know martial arts? Makes it even more fun!"
Liu Huiwu was a Second-class Expert in Cyan Stone City; he thought taking down Yan Zhen would be a cinch.
Girls who knew martial arts—this was his first time.
What he didn’t realize was that Yan Zhen herself was terribly confused—how did she dodge so quickly?
Could it be... she actually knew martial arts?
After a few more rounds of testing, Yan Zhen found that Liu Huiwu was like a clown before her; his punches and kicks moved as if in slow motion, not even close to touching the hem of her clothes.
At this point, Liu Huiwu lost his interest in playing around—he realized Yan Zhen’s strength actually surpassed his own.
"Guards! Tie her up for me!"
