第四卷 七星岛 第六百四十六章 炼制元婴尸王

Lin Xuan had originally come to check on the progress of the little girl, but he hadn't expected her to be at a critical juncture where she was about to break through. 1⑹kαр.⑴⑹整理

This little girl didn’t even notify me.

Lin Xuan shook his head; however, he wouldn’t leave just like that. He needed to stay by her side and support her. At the crucial moment, perhaps he could help her a bit.

...

Several days passed quickly.

Moon’s body was surrounded by increasingly heavy阴气. Suddenly, she crossed her hands and lightly tapped them in front of her body several times. Then, she formed an odd sword technique with her fingers. The spiritual energy within her body surged like boiling water.

Lin Xuan raised his eyebrows, a concerned expression appearing on his face. Whether or not she could advance to the late-stage condensation core stage was now down to this moment.

A cold wind appeared out of thin air and enveloped Moon’s delicate figure. Inside, faint cries of a厉鬼 could be heard. However, strangely enough, that sound had an unusual melody.

After some time, the cold wind gradually subsided, but the spiritual energy within her body surged even more violently. A pained expression appeared on her beautiful face.

Seeing this, Lin Xuan was greatly alarmed and didn’t dare hesitate any longer. He quickly sat cross-legged, reached out his hand, and tapped his head. An infant about an inch in size flew out of his skull.

After the demon infant separated from its body, it looked at Moon with concern on its small face before opening its mouth to expel a thread of black spiritual energy.

This spiritual energy was extremely fine but shimmered like solid matter as it entered Moon’s body through her brow.

The little girl's expression improved somewhat; it seemed that the pain had slightly lessened.

However, the demon infant didn’t slack off and expelled another thread.

Then, with both hands, he changed the form of this spiritual energy into three small petals.

A strange fragrance emanated from the surface.

This was his own true essence. Who said the path of cultivation was without emotion? At least for Lin Xuan, Moon surpassed any treasure.

"Go!"

The demon infant pointed its finger, and the three petals rotated as they fell into Moon’s body.

Lin Xuan had also learned the Black Magic Art, and his current abilities were comparable to those of an old monster. With his help, Moon's spiritual energy within her body calmed down immediately, allowing her to advance to the late-stage condensation core in one go.

Half an hour later, Moon opened her beautiful eyes with a mix of annoyance and joy on her face as she bowed: "Thank you, Young Master for your assistance."

"Idiot, why are we still being so formal?" Lin Xuan smiled. "You should be happy."

"You still have to work hard these few days since your cultivation is not yet stable," he said.

"I understand." Moon smiled and began sitting cross-legged again. The stronger she became, the more help she could provide for Young Master.

Seeing how diligently the little girl was working, Lin Xuan’s face showed a look of relief as he turned back to his cave. Helping Moon break through had cost him quite a bit of true essence energy, so he decided to meditate and replenish this power while there was still some time before fusing with the corpse infant.

...

Time passed quickly in the mountains, especially for cultivators; just several dozen days seemed like mere moments.

One night under a dark sky, Lin Xuan arrived at the other side of the island. He chose this time because the night’s heavy阴气 would be more conducive to fusion.

The scenery remained unchanged as the corpse king's body lay quietly within the array, showing no signs of movement. Lin Xuan released his spirit sense and checked it briefly before a satisfied expression appeared on his face.

After being nourished by the阴气 and corpse wind for this period, the state of the corpse king’s body was at its peak.

Lin Xuan stretched out his hand, took out various materials from his storage bag. Then he shook his left hand, revealing several array flags and round discs in his palm.

He had prepared these as a precaution; although the chance of an external enemy appearing during fusion was negligible, it was better to be safe than sorry.

Just as he was about to set up the array flags, white light flashed, followed by a fragrant breeze. Moon appeared beside him: "Young Master, you didn’t notify me for such an important matter. I could have guarded your side."

"Haha, wasn’t I afraid of disturbing your cultivation?" Lin Xuan smiled.

"It’s fine; my cultivation is stable enough that it won’t drop," she said.

"Since that’s the case, set up these array flags first."

"Okay." Moon nodded and her face lit up with a smile.

With the little girl's help, the array was quickly set up. A layer of light screen rose, followed by mist that covered him.

Lin Xuan gave some instructions to Moon before flying into it.

...

For several months, Lin Xuan never came out from inside. The cultivation of an infant corpse at the core period was no small matter. Although the Demonic Corpse Technique mentioned this, even the most demonic demon lord had never had the chance to try it.

Moon understood the reason and wasn’t in a hurry. She sat nearby, guarding Young Master.

...

Another year passed quickly.

One morning, as the sun rose, a new day began. Suddenly, the sunlight above dimmed inexplicably, and a large black cloud drifted from somewhere, swirling endlessly.

阴气 corpse wind appeared out of nowhere, reaching up to the sky. The cries of evil ghosts echoed for several miles.

Moon’s eyes snapped open; she was not alarmed but rather happy. Could this strange omen mean that Young Master had already completed the demon corpse?

Just as she was thinking this, a rumbling sound came from below the array, and the demon mist dispersed while the light barrier split into a narrow gap.

A dazzling green light shot out from inside, scattering to reveal Lin Xuan’s face with a faint look of joy.

"Young Master." Moon was overjoyed and hurriedly went forward. Then she looked around, her beautiful face showing confusion: "Huh? Where is the demon corpse?"

"Dumbass, it's stored in the spirit ghost bag."

"Oh," Moon nodded, then adopted a pouting expression: "Young Master, can I take a look?"

"Sure!"

Lin Xuan naturally wouldn’t refuse such a small request. He stretched out his hand and took off a black bag from his waist. A spell was cast on it.

The spirit ghost bag floated above him, releasing countless ghost mists. Inside, there was a towering figure—clearly an infant corpse at the core period!

Unfortunately, hidden in the mist, it wasn’t very clear to see.

Moon frowned and waved her hand, creating a cold wind that scattered the ghost mists. The corpse king finally fully exposed himself in the air.

"What is this?" Moon’s face showed surprise when she saw the monster's appearance. It was no wonder; what she saw before was nothing like the imagined corpse king!

What met her eyes was a bald cultivator in his thirties, towering at two meters with well-defined muscles. His complexion had a rosy hue, and regardless of how one looked, there was no connection to a zombie. His cultivation level seemed to be around the early-stage condensation core.

"Young Master, what’s going on?" Moon didn’t believe that her master would lie to her, but this matter was too unbelievable. What kind of danger lay in between?
