The Yin Corpse Seed
This Chessboard Demon Snake was enormous, enough to feed him for a long time. Of course, Chen Changming wouldn't keep it all to himself; he would also share it with the Demon Spirit Vine and the Silver Thread Heart-Devouring Insect.
Chen Changming took out the Spirit Boat and carried Liu Qingwu out of Hidden Dragon Mountain.
On the Spirit Boat, Liu Qingwu paid Chen Changming all the remaining Heavenly Spirit Pill.
At this point, Chen Changming possessed 11,000 Heavenly Spirit Pill in his Storage Ring. This was an enormous Cultivation Resources, and if word got out, the entire cultivation Immortal Realm of the Zhao Kingdom would probably go crazy.
To the southeast of Hidden Dragon Mountain, there is a city called Hidden Dragon City.
It wasn't very large; it could be considered a small city.
Liu Qingwu rented a cultivation cave abode in the city to recuperate from her injuries. At the same time, she made an appointment with Chen Changming to meet in Linqing City, a small coastal town in the Yan Kingdom, six months later.
Chen Changming naturally trusted Liu Qingwu's character.
So I readily agreed.
"Fellow Daoist, we have faced life and death together for many days, yet I still do not know your esteemed name?"
As Chen Changming was leaving, Liu Qingwu suddenly called out to him, her beautiful eyes sparkling with a strange light as she asked.
"I am from Luo Shan."
Chen Changming used an alias to deal with the situation.
After leaving Hidden Dragon City, he rode his sword straight towards Lingshui Mountain.
Several days later, he entered Lingshui Mountain and arrived at the entrance of Li Family Village. After searching for a while, Chen Changming found the unique mark that he and his Senior Sister had agreed on on the bark of several locust trees at the entrance of the village.
These markings include both new and old ones.
The old markings, weathered by wind, frost, rain, and snow, have become quite worn.
"It seems Senior Sister was already here..."
Chen Changming sighed softly, drew a mark, then turned and left Li Family Village, heading straight for the depths of Lingshui Mountain.
Next, he was to bury Li Xiushan's remains, so that the Vice Alliance Leader of the Demon-Slaying Alliance could finally rest in peace.
Finding a hillside that looked like a good spot, Chen Changming dug a pit, and with a wave of his hand, Li Xiushan's body fell into the pit.
A foul stench emanated from the corpse.
Inside the earthen bed, Li Xiushan's body was covered with a layer of green lividity and emitted a foul odor.
Chen Changming was taken aback. Logically speaking, items stored in Storage Bag and Storage Ring should not expire easily. How could Li Xiushan's body have decomposed after sixteen or seventeen years?
Just as they were wondering, the corpse covered in green lividity suddenly sat up.
"Chen Bai, why did it take you so long to let me out?"
The corpse, "Li Xiushan," had its head down, its tone revealing dissatisfaction.
What?
Is Li Xiushan still alive?
Even with his extensive experience, Chen Changming was somewhat flustered at this moment.
Li Xiushan died from a ruptured heart, so how could he have come back to life more than ten years later, with his body decomposed to this extent?
"Vice Alliance Leader Li, you're still alive?"
Chen Changming slowly stepped back and tentatively asked a question.
"I guess you could say I'm still alive."
Li Xiushan looked up and was surprised to find a strange young man in front of him. He asked, "Where did Chen Bai go? Who are you?"
"Vice Alliance Leader Li, I am Chen Bai, I've disguised myself."
Chen Changming said with a tense expression, relying on his intuition, he felt that Li Xiushan seemed to have changed, and was completely different from the previous Li Xiushan.
"Come here, Chen Bai, I have something to tell you."
Li Xiushan stretched his body, feeling a little uncomfortable, and then called out.
"Vice Alliance Leader Li, I have brought you back to Li Family Village. We owe each other nothing more."
Chen Changming kept retreating, his eyes filled with vigilance.
Bang!
Li Xiushan suddenly slapped the soil with both hands, and his entire body flew out, landing steadily in front of Chen Changming, the two less than three zhang apart.
Chen Changming took out the Geng-Gold Sword.
This is Li Hefeng's sword; his Life-Bound Flying Sword is located between his eyebrows, ready to launch an attack at any time.
At the same time, he was also preparing to unleash the Demon Spirit Vine.
"Even if I transform into Yin Corpse Puppet Body, your mere Foundation Establishment Level 2 cultivation is no match for me!"
Li Xiushan shook his head and smiled dismissively.
"The real Li Xiushan is dead. You... who exactly are you?"
Chen Changming frowned and questioned.
"Li Xiushan is nothing more than the Yin Corpse Seed of my Yin Spirit Child. Some things went wrong back then at Mysterious Yin Mountain, which caused this seed body to be trapped within the Demonic Qi array. I had no choice but to let Li Xiushan fake his death and escape..."
Yin Spirit Child smiled faintly, a smile that exuded powerful confidence.
Even Chen Changming could see that Yin Spirit Child's confidence was very similar to the temperament of the Cloth-Clad Elder he had met.
"Li Xiushan is dead. His body has now become Yin Corpse Puppet Body, and its physical form is comparable to a sixth-level Foundation Establishment Body Cultivator. So you little guy have no chance of winning."
Yin Spirit Child chuckled mockingly, staring at Chen Changming and saying, "Chen Bai, your physical body is quite good. Why not become my next Yin Corpse Seed? That way, you can fight alongside me, Yin Spirit Child, in the future!"
No, thank you.
Chen Changming shook his head and slowly backed away.
At the same time, they were also preparing to unleash the Pure Yang Sword Art.
"You have no choice at this point!"
Yin Spirit Child laughed loudly, and rushed over with a foul stench, his large hands covered in lividity reaching for his chest.
A dazzling sword light burst forth in the blazing sun.
This sword strike, though delivered late, arrived first, striking Yin Spirit Child squarely in the chest.
A sword pierced his chest.
"What?!" Yin Spirit Child stared at Chen Changming in shock, shouting hysterically, "Pure Yang Sword Art! You're actually a disciple of the Extreme Yang Ancestor?"
After saying that.
A layer of bloody light surged from his body, and he transformed into a blood arrow, shooting into the distance.
Although Chen Changming couldn't catch up, he released the Spirit-Devouring Insect at this moment.
This spirit insect, comparable to Golden Core cultivator, was extremely fast, chasing after the direction in which the blood arrow had fled.
"Extreme Yang Ancestor?"
Chen Changming stood there, his brows furrowed.
According to Yin Spirit Child, the Extreme Yang Ancestor is skilled in the Pure Yang Sword Art, and Yin Spirit Child seems to be extremely afraid of the Extreme Yang Ancestor.
"This Extreme Yang Ancestor might be one of my two senior brothers."
Chen Changming murmured.
His Pure Yang Sword Intent seemed to have a natural restraint on this Yin Corpse Puppet Body, so Chen Changming believed that even if this Yin Spirit Child used a secret technique to escape, he would be severely injured. As long as he found the Yin Spirit Child's hiding place, he could kill him in one fell swoop.
Chen Changming will not let Yin Spirit Child escape.
After all, this guy knew a lot of his secrets, and he had to kill him to silence him and eliminate any future trouble.
I waited for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
The Spirit-Devouring Insect buzzed back.
Chen Changming's face lit up with joy. He rode his sword and followed the Spirit-Devouring Insect, stealthily making his way to where Yin Spirit Child had landed.
Deep within the Lingshui Mountain, in an extremely deep pool.
At that moment, Yin Spirit Child found a water cave in the pool and hid himself there.
Water can mask one's scent.
Therefore, he was not worried about being tracked down by this disciple of the Extreme Yang Ancestor.
