After cursing that damned Ye Xu.
Li Ping hefted the sealed Life-Bound Corpse Pearl in one hand, while thinking, But now Ye Xu's Life-Bound Corpse Pearl has fallen into my hands!
A fourth-tier corpse king could hide part of his primordial spirit inside his Life-Bound Corpse Pearl, then conceal the pearl somewhere far away to keep enemies from finding his weakness.
There were both advantages and disadvantages to doing this.
For instance, now that his Life-Bound Corpse Pearl had fallen into Li Ping's hands, Li Ping could use it against the fourth-tier corpse king.
Possessing the pearl did not mean he could completely control the fourth-tier corpse king, but using it to hamper him in battle and greatly diminish his strength would be easy.
With his current strength at the Core Formation early stage, Li Ping would be no match for the fourth-tier corpse king even if the latter's strength were greatly reduced.
But once he advanced to the Core Formation late stage, or even formed his nascent soul, he might be able to use the Life-Bound Corpse Pearl to restrain the fourth-tier corpse king, kill him outright, and refine his corpse-king body anew.
That would effectively give him a fourth-tier fighting force.
At the thought of potentially acquiring a fourth-tier fighting force in the future, Li Ping's heart could not help pounding.
