Devouring Flesh and Blood
Time flies, and the short few months passed in the blink of an eye as Su Bai and Heavenly Gang, master and servant, each cultivated their own paths.
On that very day, the interface in Su Bai's mind suddenly trembled slightly.
He was overjoyed, knowing that the [Immortal Talent Reflection]'s Survey and Copy functions had been updated.
Su Bai slowly opened his eyes. Although he had made progress in cultivating the [Thousand Mountain Shadow Slash] over the past few months, the progress was slow.
He thought to himself, "Without Earth Attribute Spell Talent, mastering a Sword Dao Divine Ability that incorporates Earth Attribute Spiritual Power transformations will indeed take a considerable amount of time."
He frowned slightly.
"It seems I still need to Copy an Earth Attribute Spell Talent."
Su Bai thought to himself, "But since Heavenly Gang hasn't advanced yet, should I Copy someone else's Spell Talent first, or directly Copy Heavenly Gang's current Talent?"
Just as Su Bai was pondering, a subtle fluctuation suddenly appeared in his mind.
This was a voice transmission from Heavenly Gang via the Corpse Control Seal! Su Bai's heart tightened, and he quickly focused his mind to listen.
The clarity of the sound transmission from this Corpse Control Seal is closely related to the distance.
To ensure clarity, its coverage area is only a few dozen miles.
At a greater distance, only a vague sensation can be felt.
Fortunately, Su Bai and Heavenly Gang were both near the valley where this Yin Sha Land was located, so the distance between them was relatively close, making it exceptionally convenient to transmit their voices.
"Master, I feel it's almost time." Heavenly Gang's voice rang in Su Bai's mind. Upon hearing this, Su Bai was overjoyed. He knew that when Heavenly Gang said "almost time," he meant that he was about to advance to the Purple Zombie Realm.
The Purple Zombie Realm represents a Qualitative Leap for Zombie, not only significantly increasing their strength but also granting them access to more powerful Law Technique and skills.
Su Bai made a quick decision to put aside his own cultivation and wholeheartedly help Heavenly Gang Advance to Purple Zombie.
If Heavenly Gang can successfully advance, Su Bai's life in Tian Nan will be much smoother.
Moreover, Su Bai was waiting to Copy the Earth Attribute Spell Talent on him after he advanced to the Heavenly Gang realm.
With that thought in mind, Su Bai no longer hesitated. He immediately stopped his cultivation and focused all his attention on Heavenly Gang.
He used his Divine Sense to lock onto the Heavenly Gang, carefully observing every subtle change in Heavenly Gang, not letting any potential danger slip by.
Once Heavenly Gang begins his Tribulation Crossing, Su Bai will not hesitate to lend a helping hand to ensure that he can safely overcome this difficulty and successfully Advance to Purple Zombie Realm.
Coincidentally, the relationship between the two countries near this valley has recently been On the Brink of Conflict, with constant friction and an unusually tense atmosphere.
Sure enough, within a few days, the conflict between the two countries was ignited, and a fierce clash spread rapidly like wildfire.
On the river valley plain, the once peaceful land was instantly shrouded in the shadow of war. Both sides deployed 50,000 troops each, like two ferocious beasts, facing each other face to face, and a thrilling head-on confrontation was about to break out.
At this tense moment in the eyes of ordinary people, Su Bai sat calmly on the mountain peak, like an observer detached from the world.
He gazed silently at the battlefield below, watching the mortal soldiers struggle in their life-or-death battle, as if watching a race fight between ants. Although lives were being lost every moment, none of this stirred the slightest ripple in Su Bai's heart.
"Life is already so short, why rush to die?" Su Bai couldn't help but sigh.
His gaze cut through the clamor of the battlefield and landed on the soldiers fighting bravely. They were willing to sacrifice their lives for the interests of their respective countries, but in Su Bai, these lives were so insignificant and fragile.
Leaving aside the individuals themselves, even the countries for which they sacrificed their lives had a history of only a few hundred or a thousand years—a short, too short period. In the end, it all seemed meaningless.
Su Bai shook his head.
Although he now possesses Lifespan of over a thousand years, he still feels it's not enough and is single-mindedly focused on advancing to the Spirit Transformation and Spirit Ascension Realm as quickly as possible.
Perhaps mortals have their own troubles, and cultivators also have their own anxieties based on their own understanding.
Su Bai pondered silently, his gaze gradually shifting from the battlefield back to the distant mountains.
There, shrouded in mist, it resembled a fairyland. The mountains seemed eternally unchanging, forming a stark contrast with the bloody battle below, where lives were lost every moment.
This breathtaking battle, which was awe-inspiring for the mortal kingdom, had lasted for three whole days. Both sides were bloodthirsty, and the fighting was extremely fierce, with battles intermittent and intermittent, making it difficult to determine a winner.
Finally, after the final fierce battle, both sides were exhausted and unable to fight any longer, so they unanimously chose to temporarily withdraw their troops.
On the battlefield, countless corpses lay scattered about, and the stench of decay, blood, and death permeated the air.
In order to clear the battlefield, both sides sent some soldiers to collect the corpses.
A soldier walked up to a corpse with half its head chopped off and was about to lift it up when suddenly, a sinister Sha Qi swept over like a whirlwind.
The soldier stared in horror at the scene before him. The once intact corpse was instantly devoured by the Yin Sha Qi. The flesh and blood seemed to have been sucked away, disappearing without a trace, leaving only a pale skeleton!
"Ah! There's Demon!!"
The soldier was terrified. He screamed and turned to run for his life, fearing that the Yin Sha Qi would catch up and turn him into a skeleton.
This is not an isolated case.
Throughout the battlefield, other soldiers who were collecting corpses encountered the same situation.
That eerie Yin Sha Qi, like Spirit One, raged around them, quickly sweeping away the flesh and blood of the corpses wherever it passed, leaving only bare skeletons, as if the essence of life had been drained from them.
However, the Master of this Yin Sha Qi seems to still harbor some good intentions.
He only targeted the deceased, not the living.
The Master of this Yin Sha Qi is naturally Heavenly Gang.
Heavenly Gang did not harm the living, not because of Su Bai's orders, but because it was Heavenly Gang's own choice in a state of Consciousness.
This is largely due to the Corpse Control Seal that Su Bai placed inside his body.
The Corpse Control Seal with a wisp of Su Bai's divine soul gave Heavenly Gang a trace of Spiritual Qi and humanity, preventing him from becoming as brutal and ruthless as an ordinary Zombie.
"A ghost!"
"You Demon!!"
The soldiers who came to collect the bodies were so frightened by this scene that they quickly retreated.
Upon learning this news, both armies had a pretext to withdraw their troops.
Su Bai watched this scene calmly. "The flesh and blood of the dead can be utilized, and this move allows both sides to withdraw their troops more quickly, reducing the loss of life."
"Could this be considered unintentionally doing a good deed?"
Su Bai smiled gently.
"Hmm? It's starting!" Su Bai clearly sensed that the Heavenly Gang beneath the ground was beginning to undergo tremendous changes.
Using the blood and flesh of fallen soldiers, Heavenly Gang began to undergo a transformation.
The Yin Sha Qi within the valley was drawn to him in a short time.
Heavenly Gang's pale skin began to be shrouded in a unique shade of purple.
Although the purple hue was eerie, it also made it less like a 'dead person,' giving it a peculiar nobility emanating from the deceased.
