Bai Yu took out dozens of Corpse Control Talismans in a row, directly suppressing the Bronze Armor Corpse.
Although the Bronze Armor Corpse was powerful, it couldn't withstand so many Corpse Control Talismans and was immediately pinned to the spot.
Golden Dragon Abbot, who was nearby forcing out the poison and healing, was dumbfounded.
What was going on?
This kid used five or sixty Corpse Control Talismans in a row?
These were Blood Talismans, which required a martial artist's Blood Essence to draw!
Fifty or sixty Blood Talismans could drain a martial artist dry!
What's more, the success rate of Blood Talismans was generally not high, so the Blood Essence consumed would be even greater.
Just what was this kid's background? How could he have so many Blood Talismans?
At this moment, Bai Yu picked up a dagger and turned to look at Golden Dragon Abbot.
Golden Dragon Abbot shuddered all over. He hadn't cleared the residual poison yet and was definitely not fit for battle.
He hurriedly said, "This brother, let's talk things over."
"Whatever you want, I can give it to you."
Bai Yu walked closer while asking, "Oh? What can you give me?"
Golden Dragon Abbot immediately felt as if he had grasped a life-saving straw. "Whether it's silver notes, cultivation methods, or even Yin-Yang techniques, which one do you want, little brother?"
"Moreover, I see that little brother's martial arts and Yin-Yang techniques are both extraordinary. Why not join our Divine Teachings? I can recommend little brother to become a Master, receiving offerings from everyone."
Bai Yu's heart stirred. He remembered that someone had asked him to join some organization before.
He asked without showing any emotion, "Oh? Become a Master? How many people can I command? And what Divine Teachings are you talking about?"
Golden Dragon Abbot hurriedly said, "That depends on little brother's ability. If little brother can spread the Divine Teachings, commanding ten thousand people is not impossible."
"As for the name of the Divine Teachings, naturally—"
He woke up and changed his words, "Naturally, you'll know once little brother joins."
"As long as little brother joins the Divine Teachings, whether it's money, cultivation methods, beauties, or fine horses, you'll have everything you could want."
He spoke eloquently, trying to entice him, while one hand was hidden in his sleeve, clutching several Bodhi Seeds.
If this kid in front of him came forward, he would definitely fight to the death and take the opportunity to kill him.
Watching Bai Yu walk over, Golden Dragon Abbot tightened his grip on the hidden weapon in his hand.
Suddenly, Bai Yu stopped, twenty or thirty steps away from Golden Dragon Abbot.
He said calmly, "I only want one thing."
"What thing?"
"Your head!"
Golden Dragon Abbot was furious. "Boy, don't think you've got me figured out."
"If you want to kill me, I'll risk dying from the poison and drag you down with me before I die!"
At this moment, a black shadow darted in from outside.
It was Old Mo, carrying a crossbow in its mouth.
Bai Yu took the crossbow and loaded it with several poisoned bolts.
To prevent Golden Dragon Abbot from making a desperate move, he didn't plan to risk a close-quarters fight.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Three crossbow bolts shot straight at Golden Dragon Abbot.
Golden Dragon Abbot hurriedly dodged, while simultaneously throwing the Bodhi Seeds in his hand.
Bai Yu easily dodged the Bodhi Seeds, and three more crossbow bolts shot over.
Golden Dragon Abbot was already poisoned, and his movements were not as agile as before. Although he tried his best to dodge two arrows, the third arrow pierced his palm.
Bai Yu wasn't in a hurry and just kept firing the crossbow from a distance.
In the end, Golden Dragon Abbot was hit by several crossbow bolts, and the poison on his face was as black as ink.
He finally breathed his last.
Bai Yu followed up with another arrow to Golden Dragon Abbot's throat, making sure he was dead before approaching to loot the body.
Golden Dragon Abbot didn't have much money on him, just a few small denomination silver notes, totaling about twenty or thirty taels.
In addition, there were a dozen or so hidden weapon Bodhi Seeds, a heavy iron ring-handled knife, and a copper bell.
Most importantly, there was a Dragon-Tiger Bone Tempering Pill recipe and a blue-covered book titled Corpse Refining Art.
Bai Yu put the other items away first and picked up the Corpse Refining Art to browse through.
Corpse Refining Art, as the name suggests, is the secret art of refining Baleful Corpses.
Generally speaking, corpse refining can be divided into ordinary Baleful Corpses, Iron Armor Corpses, Bronze Armor Corpses, Silver Armor Flying Zombies, and Golden Armor Corpse Kings.
Among them, Iron Armor Corpses and above require the corpses of martial artists to refine, and they require various special materials and timing to refine.
For example, a Bronze Armor Corpse requires first finding a martial artist and having him practice various horizontal training skills and strength training methods.
When this martial artist's skills are fully accomplished, he is killed, and then sacrificed with baleful energy and various Yin attribute items.
The Baleful Corpse refined in this way is incredibly powerful, invulnerable to swords and spears, and impervious to water and fire.
It is simply a humanoid killing machine.
Mangzi was full of expectations, thinking he had encountered a lucky chance, but was tricked by Golden Dragon Abbot and refined into a Bronze Armor Corpse.
Bai Yu couldn't help but sigh at the treacherousness of the martial world and the impermanence of life.
He quickly flipped through it and soon found the method of controlling the Bronze Armor Corpse in the last few pages.
When this Bronze Armor Corpse is refined, it is equipped with a Soul-Seizing Bell, a natal magic weapon.
By shaking the Soul-Seizing Bell and chanting various incantations, the Bronze Armor Corpse can be controlled.
The refining method of the Soul-Seizing Bell is also very simple: blood sacrifice is sufficient.
Bai Yu thought about it, this Bronze Armor Corpse is extremely powerful.
Even a Rank 6 martial artist might not be able to defeat it without understanding Yin-Yang arts.
So Bai Yu decided to take this Bronze Armor Corpse as his own.
He immediately forced out a few drops of Blood Essence and dripped them onto the Soul-Seizing Bell.
Instantly, he and the Soul-Seizing Bell developed a flesh-and-blood connection.
Although it was still a bit rough, he could continue to refine it with Blood Essence in the future and refine the aura left by Golden Dragon Abbot.
Bai Yu refined it several times before putting away the Corpse Control Talisman on the Bronze Armor Corpse.
As soon as the Corpse Control Talisman was removed, the Bronze Armor Corpse's eyes turned blood red, and it let out a beast-like roar, about to pounce on Bai Yu.
Bai Yu hurriedly shook the bell and chanted the incantation.
Strangely enough, the Bronze Armor Corpse immediately calmed down upon hearing the bell.
Bai Yu tentatively said:
"Take a few steps."
The Bronze Armor Corpse did as it was told, blankly taking two steps.
Bai Yu was overjoyed and issued several orders in succession, which the Bronze Armor Corpse carried out faithfully.
Bai Yu was relieved and said:
"Brother Mang, Golden Dragon Abbot tricked you, and I have avenged you."
"From now on, this Baleful Corpse body of yours will follow me, and I will call you Ju Jia from now on."
"Go, take Golden Dragon Abbot's body."
Under Bai Yu's command, the Bronze Armor Corpse drained Golden Dragon Abbot's Blood Essence and then carried his body, following Bai Yu out the door.
Bai Yu used several Gathering Balefulness Talismans to gather baleful energy and corrode Golden Dragon Abbot's body into a pile of bones.
He even had the Bronze Armor Corpse shatter the bones into powder.
Only then did Bai Yu find a hidden place and temporarily bury the Bronze Armor Corpse.
[Funeral Successful!] [Basic Reward: Strength +12, Life Experience +110.] [Optional Rewards: Iron Corpse Skill, Dragon Force Art, Arhat Fist, Golden Bell Shield, Yin Energy +3, Blood Essence +45...] [Funeral Participation 77%, Family Satisfaction 62%, can choose two rewards.]
Bai Yu was stunned for a moment, not expecting this to count as a successful funeral.
And why is there family satisfaction for this?
But he didn't think too much about it and started choosing rewards.
