Corpse Zombie Body Tempering Technique!
"Ye Chen, these are your four junior brothers and sister."
Lin Ye walked up to Ye Chen and introduced his second junior brother, Dongfang Bai, third junior sister, Dongfang Rou, fourth junior brother, Yang Yang, and fifth junior brother, Han Bing.
"This is your eldest senior brother, Ye Chen." Lin Ye also introduced Ye Chen to his other disciples.
"Greetings, eldest senior brother."
"Greetings, junior brothers and sister."
After they exchanged greetings, Lin Ye had Ye Chen arrange lodgings for his junior brothers and sister. Lodgings were also arranged for Liu Ya, the blind girl Yang Yang had brought with him, who was counted as an ordinary disciple of the sect.
After returning, Lin Ye began his lottery draw. He had gained a chance to draw by taking Han Bing as his disciple, but he had been busy returning to the sect and hadn't used it earlier.
"Draw!"
"Ding! Congratulations, host! You have won the upper-grade profound-rank Body Refining Cultivation Method, Corpse Zombie Body Tempering Technique; a bottle of Blood Extreme Body Refining Pills; a Storage Bag; 500 taels of silver; and an earth-rank formation—the Corpse Sha Formation."
"Claim."
In an instant, Lin Ye gained the memories of the Corpse Zombie Body Tempering Technique and the Corpse Sha Formation, along with the other items.
"Corpse Zombie Body Tempering Technique."
Lin Ye looked through the Cultivation Method. It treated the human body as a zombie's body for cultivation, though it didn't actually turn the body into a zombie's. Rather, it imitated one.
The Corpse Zombie Body Tempering Technique's realms included the bronze corpse realm, comparable to the Body Refining Realm; the silver corpse realm, comparable to the Body Forging Realm; and the Greater Accomplishment Silver Corpse Realm, comparable to the True Qi Realm, among others.
Once someone cultivated the Corpse Zombie Body Tempering Technique, their physical defenses became astonishing, and their signs of life were almost imperceptible. If they disguised themselves as a corpse, they would be hard to detect and hard to kill. But it had a drawback: until they broke through to the Golden Corpse Realm, they would fear sunlight, and their strength would be greatly reduced under it.
"This Corpse Zombie Body Tempering Technique is too sinister, a demonic Cultivation Method among demonic Cultivation Methods. How should I change it?"
Lin Ye was troubled. He would definitely give this Cultivation Method to Han Bing. The fellow's body was icy, colder than a dead person's, so he surely had some kind of yin sha physique, which made him well suited to cultivating the Corpse Zombie Body Tempering Technique.
He pondered for a long time before finally putting brush to paper.
First, he changed the Corpse Zombie Body Tempering Technique to the Supreme Yin Body Refining Technique. At least the name looked much more righteous. Next came the contents. The Cultivation Method mentioned zombie bodies, bronze corpses, silver corpses, corpse sha Qi, and the like far too often. He couldn't leave those in, or it would definitely be a demonic Evil Method.
"Change corpse sha Qi to supreme yin Qi, bronze corpse body to bronze body, silver body, and golden body. Fear of sunlight can be changed to supreme yin Qi growing weak under supreme yang Qi. That's quite reasonable..."
Lin Ye also changed the Corpse Sha Formation to the Supreme Yin Spirit Gathering Formation. Only by using this formation could corpse sha Qi be gathered quickly, allowing Han Bing to temper his body and cultivate the Corpse Zombie Body Tempering Technique.
Lin Ye spent a long time making the changes before he was finally done, and he was thoroughly worn out.
After finishing, Lin Ye went to the back mountain. There was a mass grave there, where the Black-Yellow Sect's predecessors were buried, as well as a dilapidated pavilion. He planned to set up the Corpse Sha Formation there.
"Claim the Corpse Sha Formation."
With a thought from Lin Ye, the Corpse Sha Formation was set up throughout the area. He didn't need to do anything; the system took care of it.
Afterward, Lin Ye also set up the Blood Gang Earth Sha Formation from the system, covering the entire Black-Yellow Sect. For now, however, the formation was only half activated and served solely as a warning system, though he could activate it fully at any time.
The entire Black-Yellow Sect trembled as the formation was set up. Yu Yu sensed that something was amiss. Although she had never seen a formation before, she could clearly tell that something had changed in the sect, so she came to ask Lin Ye about it.
"Senior brother, it feels like something's changed in our Black-Yellow Sect, but I can't put my finger on it," Yu Yu said with a pout.
"I bought a set of formation plates in Spirit Yang City and set up a simple formation," Lin Ye explained. In any case, his junior sister didn't understand any of it, so she would surely believe him.
Sure enough, she did. After all, she couldn't recognize an earth-rank formation and really thought it was just an ordinary one.
After Yu Yu left, Lin Ye called Han Bing over.
"Han Bing, this Cultivation Method is for you."
Lin Ye gave Han Bing the revised Corpse Zombie Body Tempering Technique. Han Bing was thrilled. He had long wanted a Cultivation Method, and now he was finally getting one.
In fact, when he had been with the Hu Household, he had secretly taken Cultivation Methods and tried to cultivate them, but none had been effective. On top of that, the Hu Household's third young lady had been afraid he would run away and hadn't given him any resources, so he had never broken through to become a martial artist.
But he firmly believed he was a genius. Otherwise, how could his master have picked him out of a crowd at a glance? Besides, he had a special physique and had been born with a cold body. If someone so special wasn't a genius, what was he?
"Supreme Yin Body Refining Technique, what a great Cultivation Method! I can tell at a glance it's perfect for me!"
Han Bing was overjoyed.
But after reading for a while, he looked puzzled and turned to his master, Lin Ye. "Master, to cultivate this method, I have to bury myself in the soil. Isn't that strange?"
"What's so strange about it? Let me ask you: the Supreme Yin Body Refining Technique requires you to absorb supreme yin Qi, and isn't it colder underground? Naturally, supreme yin Qi is bound to be more concentrated there!" Lin Ye explained.
"That's true."
Han Bing had no further doubts.
"Here, dig a hole in this spot and bury yourself in it. Just leave your head exposed. And take this pill before you bury yourself. Then circulate the Supreme Yin Body Refining Technique and absorb supreme yin Qi to temper your body. Try to master the Supreme Yin Body Refining Technique and break through to the Bronze Body Realm as soon as possible," Lin Ye instructed.
"Yes, Master."
Han Bing promised.
After that, Lin Ye carefully instructed Han Bing on the finer details of the Corpse Zombie Body Tempering Technique. Han Bing had good comprehension and grasped them one by one. All he had to do was wait until nightfall to bury himself and cultivate.
Yang Yang, meanwhile, continued cultivating the Taotie Swallowing Devil Cultivation Method in the sect. He had already eaten all the pills he'd been given, and there wasn't enough food to fill him up.
"Go hunting in the surrounding area and eat the flesh and blood of those animals, or even Demon Beasts."
That was Lin Ye's advice to Yang Yang, but Yang Yang was still very weak and could only hunt animals such as wild boars. One wild boar was enough to fill him up.
On the second day after their return to the sect, at night.
Han Bing was cultivating the Corpse Zombie Body Tempering Technique. Vast amounts of corpse sha Qi surged toward him, and with the effect of the pill, his body was undergoing a transformation. The corpse sha Qi that had accumulated deep underground over many years was also being rapidly absorbed by him.
Boom!!!
Han Bing broke through. Not only had he reached the entry level of the Corpse Zombie Body Tempering Technique, but he had also cultivated a bronze body and reached the Body Refining First Layer. With his bronze body, his combat strength at the Body Refining First Layer was greater than that of a Body Refining Third Layer martial artist.
"Ding! Congratulations, host! Your disciple Han Bing has broken through to the Body Refining First Layer. With tenfold feedback, the host has successfully broken through to the Body Forging Realm Ninth Layer..."
Boom!!!!
Lin Ye's body underwent a transformation, and his cultivation broke through from the Body Forging Realm Eighth Layer to the Body Forging Realm Ninth Layer.
"Ding! Congratulations, host! Your disciple Han Bing has cultivated the Corpse Zombie Body Tempering Technique to bronze body entry level. With tenfold feedback, the host's Corpse Zombie Body Tempering Technique has reached bronze body greater accomplishment."
In an instant, a layer of bronze skin appeared on Lin Ye's body, glowing a golden bronze and strengthening his defenses somewhat.
He knew not only Han Bing's Corpse Zombie Body Tempering Technique, but also Yang Yang's Taotie Swallowing Devil Cultivation Method. Of course, he hadn't accepted tenfold feedback for the Icy Heart and Jade Purity Body Refining Technique or the Sunflower Body Refining Technique. He didn't want to become a woman.
In short, he could choose whether or not to accept tenfold feedback for the Cultivation Methods and martial arts his disciples practiced.
