Chapter 287: Underground
Tread, tread, tread.
Between the ruins, Chen Mu walked step by step, and everywhere he passed, a corpse refining corpse with a heavenly corpse gate and the corpse of a disciple were all shattered by the shock, and occasionally some scattered things on his body fell out, but they were basically materials for refining corpses, and the quality was too inferior, Chen Mu only glanced at it, and he was not interested in picking it up.
It wasn't until he passed by the corpse of a Heavenly Corpse Gate Protector that Yuan Gang Zhenjin shattered the corpse and dropped a pitch-black bottle that Chen Mufang stretched out his hand and poked out a wisp of invisible energy to grab it in his hand.
Remove the lid.
A strong sinister aura emanated from the bottle.
"Earthshatter Elemental Spirit."
Chen Mu only glanced at it, then recognized the contents and closed the lid again.
This is not a heaven and earth spiritual object, but a kind of thing extracted from the earth's veins, and its effect is not only to refine corpses, refining spirit soldiers and even refining spirit soldiers can use this thing, including some unique formations, and also consume such things.
This is also a relatively 'hard currency' thing, even if it is not in the Seven Xuanzong, in some other black market channels, it is easy to trade, this bottle takes a lot of energy to refine, and the value is about half of the warm spiritual object.
Before he deeply explored the treasury in the stronghold, he had already found something quite valuable on the corpse alone, Chen Mu's mood was better for a while, and now he still lacked warm spiritual objects, mainly because such items were not easy to obtain, and there was not much inventory in the Seven Xuan Sect, which had been exchanged by him for the time being.
If it is in the usual period, the transaction of the Ice Absolute Palace must be far less cost-effective than the exchange in the Seven Xuanzong, although the Ice Palace also has some trade with the outside world, but when it comes to spiritual objects and other things, the asking price will definitely be higher than that of the Seven Xuanzong, but now that the Ice State is in turmoil, the Ice Palace is forced to cooperate with the Seven Xuanzong, although I don't know what conditions have been discussed, but they are all interconnected in a short period of time.
"Senior Brother Chen."
Just when Chen Mu was inspecting the wreckage of the ruins, Shen Lin also returned from one direction, and she also went to hunt down and kill some disciples of the Heavenly Corpse Gate, after all, she was once a relatively outstanding existence among the disciples of the Inner Sect, and now that she has entered the realm of the five internal organs, it is enough to defeat the upper corpse, and she has the certainty of retreating when she encounters the Xuan Corpse, and when the Heavenly Corpse Gate disperses in a hurry, she will go to chase and kill the weaker ones.
Chen Mu looked at Shen Lin who came over, nodded slightly at her, and said, "Senior Sister Shen has done a good job. ”
After receiving Chen Mu's praise, Shen Lin couldn't help but smile and said, "It's all Senior Brother Chen's strength, if Senior Brother Chen hadn't arrived early, I wouldn't have dared to chase all the way here." ”
Speaking of which.
She paused again and said, "There are still a few Heavenly Corpse Sect disciples on my side who have escaped. ”
"It doesn't matter."
Chen Mu didn't care and said: "The people who escaped are all insignificant characters, and they can't set off any waves, and then they will be slowly strangled, not to mention that even if they escape, the corpse refining will be destroyed in one fell swoop, and they will lose the secret place of corpse refining that has been arranged for many years, and there is no means...... Senior Sister Shen came just in time to clean up with me. ”
"Yes."
Shen Lin nodded obediently, and then helped Chen Mu clean up the corpses.
And it didn't take long for Meng Danyun to return all the way, his eyes fell on the Heavenly Corpse Gate stronghold, and after carefully probing one or two along the edge of the periphery, he said: "The Heavenly Corpse Gate should have been entrenched here for at least one or two decades, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to accumulate such a strong Earth Demon Qi, but just now they collapsed the underground formation, and now all the below are covered by the Corpse Demon, but it is not very easy to go down." ”
The Heavenly Corpse Gate uses the earth to refine the corpse, and the real stronghold is naturally not in the valley, but underground.
It's just that due to Chen Mu's onslaught, the Dharma protectors in the stronghold of the Heavenly Corpse Gate were overwhelmed and couldn't resist it, and finally had to collapse the Earth Demon Formation and release all the corpse demons.
Martial artists below the Five Visceral Realm do not need to go underground, but if they stay in this environment for a long time, their bodies will be damaged.
However, even Shen Lin, the three people present, have already entered the realm of the five visceral organs, and it is okay to stay on the edge.
"It's okay, just clean it up all the way."
Chen Mu glanced at the ground, his expression was as usual.
Even the corpses that gathered together, through the manipulation of the Heavenly Corpse Gate Protector, he was not afraid at all, and it was nothing if they were scattered and integrated into the leylines, although a large area had collapsed in his perception below, it did not affect him to go down to investigate.
With Shen Lin and Meng Danyun cleaning up the wreckage, Chen Mu didn't care about those ordinary corpses, and only cleaned up the corpses of a few Heavenly Corpse Gate Protectors who were killed by him in his memory, as well as the corpses of some deacons, and successively found a small amount of materials for refining corpse demons, although they also have their own value, but they are not as versatile as the Earth Demon Yuan Jing, and their usefulness is relatively narrow, which affects the value.
After briefly cleaning up the corpses of several Dharma Protector Deacons, Chen Mu walked towards the interior of the Heavenly Corpse Gate stronghold, and did not look for the entrance to the underground, the whole person walked straight forward, obviously it was a solid and heavy ground, covered with frost and snow, but it seemed that a downward building appeared out of thin air, making his whole person gradually walk downward.
Until Chen Mu's figure disappeared into the ground, there were no holes and pits where he entered the ground, and it was still covered with frost and snow, as if what went down was just a phantom, not a real flesh and blood.
This scene made Shen Lin stunned for a while, and he specially ran to the place where Chen Mu went deep into the ground and took two steps, but he didn't find a secret passage to the underground, and the place where he stepped on it was still solid ground.
However, Meng Danyun saw some subtlety.
"Senior Brother Chen's artistic conception has been practiced to this extent, no wonder Situ Shu is not his opponent."
She also came to the place where Chen Mu escaped into the ground, and after carefully exploring one or two, she was also a little amazed for a while, although she also knew the eight phases of Qiankun and the law used all things, but Chen Mu's artistic conception now is much more profound than her.
Obviously, she only comprehended the two artistic conceptions of Xunfeng and Kanshui, and she stepped into the Six Organs Realm earlier than Chen Mu, and more energy was focused on the cultivation of these two artistic conceptions, but the gap between her and Chen Mu has not narrowed at all, but is getting farther and farther away.
You must know that Chen Mu's practice is a complete artistic conception of Qiankun, and every time she goes deeper, it is much more difficult than her feng shui.
With Chen Mu's terrifying understanding, maybe it won't take one or two decades to be able to comprehend the Qiankun realm, and then he will definitely be on the top of the list, even if he doesn't become a grandmaster, he is expected to be comparable to Feng Hongsheng and Shi Zhenyong.
……
Ground floor.
Chen Mu's body was surrounded by eight-colored brilliance, and the flow of the eight phases of Qiankun covered every inch of his body's surface, making the soil and rock layers around his body seem to be 'virtual', unable to stop his steps.
He went all the way down more than ten feet, and finally entered a crypt.
The crypt was full of traces of collapse, and patches of gray mist were intertwined, and a thick corpse scar filled the surroundings, and the first time Chen Mu stepped in, it was as if he had captured the breath of a living person, and they swarmed towards him.
But Chen Mu's complexion did not change in the slightest, he only waved his hand casually, and the power of Qiankun flowed and intertwined, flashing in the void, and the surging corpse made a sizzling sound, dissolving and dissipating piece by piece.
Chen Mu didn't care, he took a few steps forward, and after passing through a collapsed ruin, he saw that in the gray corpse in front of him, there was a figure wearing the black cloak of the Heavenly Corpse Gate lying there, only a dark skeleton was left under the cloak, and the flesh and blood had been dissolved by the corpse, it seemed that it was the disciple who had not had time to escape from the underground when the Heavenly Corpse Gate Protector collapsed the Earth Demon Formation before.
Although the Heavenly Corpse Gate refines corpses and refines demons, they are still flesh and blood mortals, and ordinary disciples who come into contact with a high concentration of corpse demons will also be corroded and melted by corpse demons, unless they reach the fifth realm of their corpse law, which is equivalent to the level of the five visceral realms of the body quenching method, can they roughly have some means to manipulate corpse demons.
After all, only the evil corpse can be initially condensed, and the Xuan corpse can be controlled freely in the true sense.
Chen Mu stopped slightly in front of this skeleton, and after glancing at it, he continued to move forward, and after passing over several collapsed areas, he came to a somewhat open crypt, and saw that the corpse aura here was even stronger, and even the ground was in a swamp-like corroded state, and there were some faint gold and silver refining corpses in the swamp, all of which were semi-finished products.
"The method of refining the corpse of the Heavenly Corpse Gate, although it disregards morality and ethics, if it is done in the right way, it is nothing...... However, if you are in the company of corpses all year round, it is inevitable that your mind will also be affected by it, and your worldly ideas will be diluted. ”
Chen Mu shook his head slightly.
It's like being in the Daxuan border pass, the soldiers fight against the alien races outside the pass, if some soldiers are willing to turn into corpses after death and continue to fight at the border pass, then they can also do the right way, but in this kind of corpse place all the year round, like practicing the demon body in the Heavenly Demon Gate, they will gradually lose the idea of humanity, and it is no wonder that there are no real top powerhouses in these two ways.
Even if it is the rumored ninth-order Heavenly Demon, the Heavenly Corpse Sect's highest-level Heavenly Corpse, it is almost comparable to the existence of the Blood Exchange Realm, but it is recorded in some historical materials that their strength is also the weakest in the Blood Exchange Realm.
Continue past the ruins.
This time, after passing through a collapsed area again, as soon as Chen Mu's whole person appeared, a brilliant golden corpse immediately appeared in front of him, throwing a punch at him, wrapped in a fierce wind.
Chen Mu's complexion did not change, once upon a time when he first met the refining corpse in Yu County, he was already able to kill the golden corpse, and now this kind of Xuanjin body's physique is no different from an ant in his eyes, just slap it with one palm at will, and the whole golden corpse was crushed into meat under the power of heaven and earth mobilized by his palm.
Meanwhile.
Not far away, a disciple of the Heavenly Corpse Sect wearing a black cloak looked at Chen Mu with a shocked expression.
He didn't have time to escape in the chaos, he was blocked underground by the collapsed stronghold, and the corpse shatter where he happened to be was lighter, and he barely died in the corpse by using some means, but with his strength, he also had no ability to escape from here, and he couldn't go up, and he couldn't do it, and the last hope in his heart was to hide here without being discovered, and finally find an opportunity to dig up slowly, but he also knew that it was almost impossible.
"You...... You ......"
Seeing that Chen Mu crushed the golden corpse he manipulated with a slap in his hand, even if it was the first time he saw Chen Mu, he also understood that Chen Mu was far from an existence that he could fight, and even in this underground that was now full of corpses.
Chen Mu looked at the disciples of the Heavenly Corpse Gate, and he was not too surprised that there were still living people underground, and said flatly: "Where is the treasury of the Heavenly Corpse Gate, lead the way honestly, and spare your life." ”
