A Record of a Mortal’s Journey to Immortality

Heaven Extermination Devil Corpse

The Cadaver Demon’s appearance hadn’t changed in the slightest. It was still covered in green fur and had only one arm. Its entire body was still wrapped in thin silver chains.

Han Li carefully sized up the entire stone house. After confirming that everything here was the same as before and that there was nothing wrong, he placed the jade box in his hand on the ground and patted a spirit beast pouch at his waist. Suddenly, a black light shot out from the pouch.

The Weeping Soul Beast’s foot-sized figure appeared. As soon as it appeared, it immediately looked at the Cadaver Demon on the stone platform and let out a series of screeches. Before Han Li could even give an order, black light flashed and its body suddenly expanded.

Fortunately, the beast knew that this place was small and narrow, so it only grew to around 10 feet in size before coming to a stop. It stared at the Cadaver Demon with an eager expression.

When Han Li saw this, he frowned. With a thought, the Weeping Soul Beast calmed down and squatted on the ground with its back facing Han Li.

“Huh!”

When Han Li clearly saw the back of the Weeping Soul Beast, surprise flashed across his face.

The blood-red ghost image on the back of the Weeping Soul Beast was clearly much clearer than before. The ghost image on it had even begun to protrude slightly, giving one the feeling that the ghost image would come to life.

Han Li’s heart skipped a beat.

It appeared that the Weeping Soul Beast was about to undergo some strange changes after the last two feasts.

Han Li was surprised, but his heart was filled with anticipation.

However, now was not the time to carefully study the Weeping Soul Beast. He had released the beast to prevent any mishaps.

After that, Han Li patted his storage pouch and a yellow light flashed. An antique jade slip appeared in his hand.

Han Li looked at this item and his eyebrows twitched.

He had only found it after searching through the black-robed youth’s spiritual sense.

It recorded more than ten refinement methods for various types of corpses. Most of these methods were snatched from other sects by the Yin Sifting Sect and were duplicated by the black-robed young man.

This Yin Sifting Sect Elder seemed to have a deep understanding of corpse refinement techniques. He had given his own insights into over a dozen corpse refinement techniques.

There were many modifications that could increase the power of a refined corpse by 30%.

It was a pity that he kept these tricks to himself and had never told his fellow sect members about them. He had always wanted to refine a few top-grade refined corpses that he could rely on to dominate a region, but he had never been able to find a suitable corpse, so he had never taken action.

One of the refined corpses recorded in the book was the “Heaven Extermination Devil Corpse”. It was one of the top grade refined corpses that the black-robed youth wanted to refine. The corpses chosen by this method were powerful walking corpses that had already gained sentience. After wiping away their spiritual sense and using various secret techniques to refine them, they had a chance of becoming this Heaven Extermination Devil Corpses.

Naturally, the strength of this type of devil corpse was determined by the type of corpse and its original cultivation.

According to the corpse refinement technique, the Cadaver Demon was one of the best choices. A devil corpse refined from a Heavenly Earth Spirit Corpse of this grade would be 30% fiercer than before.

As a result, Han Li immediately thought of the Cadaver Demon trapped here after reading the Corpse Refinement Technique on the jade slip.

Han Li naturally would not let go of such an excellent opportunity.

However, before refining the devil corpse, he had to completely erase the Cadaver Demon’s original spiritual sense, just like when he was cultivating his second Nascent Soul.

As such, he had brought the jade box that contained the Cadaver Demon’s primordial spirit with him so that he could use it to cast a spell.

Now, Han Li looked at the huge silver nails in front of him and waved his hand. All the huge nails immediately floated gently, and as he chanted, they began to emit a faint silver light.

He rubbed his hands together, and loud thunderclaps rang out as several thick arcs of golden lightning covered his palms. Golden light dazzled with astonishing might.

Han Li expressionlessly raised his hands.

A dozen or so tiny arcs of lightning shot forth from his palm, striking the nails one after another.

Golden and silver light intertwined, and the huge nails began to tremble at the same time.

Seeing this, Han Li’s expression darkened. He spat out the word “go” and cast a spell.

All of the nails shot forth in streaks of silver light, circling around the Cadaver Demon on the stone platform before aiming at its limbs and vitals.

After doing all this, Han Li took a deep breath and looked at the jade box with the golden talisman stuck on it. He opened his mouth and spat out a green light.

The light swept past the surface of the jade box, and the golden talisman trembled several times before finally descending from the box.

With a swoosh, the lid of the box flew several tens of feet away as if it had been forcibly sent flying.

Han Li’s pupils constricted as he stared at the jade box with his lips tightly shut.

A thick green mist surged out from the box, accompanied by a burst of wild laughter.contemporary romance

“Haha! I’m finally free. Which idiot released me? Since you’ve released me, I’ll first use your flesh to wrap my stomach. Yi, a Nascent Soul cultivator?”

In the blink of an eye, the green mist condensed into a woman’s face. She had the exact same appearance as Silvermoon’s demon fox form, but her eyes were green and fierce. After seeing Han Li clearly, the ghost face was stunned.

Han Li looked at this familiar face and was also surprised for a moment, but then his expression returned to normal.

Silvermoon’s demon fox form was controlled by the Cadaver Demon. As expected, the box contained the Cadaver Demon’s primordial spirit.

The green ghost face was stunned for a moment before sneering. It suddenly opened its mouth and blew a gust of Yin wind. Then, the ghost face swelled to three meters in size and pounced forward, wanting to possess Han Li’s body.

However, Han Li, who had already come up with a plan, would not let him succeed.

No matter how powerful the Cadaver Demon’s cultivation was when it was alive, it was only a primordial spirit that had been trapped for many years. Han Li was not afraid of it at all.

He stood on the spot and a cold light flashed from his face. The Weeping Soul Beast seemed to have received an order, and it suddenly harrumphed as a yellow mist swept forth.

Wherever the light passed, a small portion of the ghost face would be swept up and pulled back.

“What is this?” The ghost face was quite quick-witted. When it discovered that something was amiss, it struggled with all its might in an attempt to break free.

It was a pity that the Weeping Soul Beast’s abilities were specialized in restraining demon souls. Not only was the ghost face unable to break free, but it was also slowly being engulfed by the light.

The ghost face was terrified, but it was still quite ruthless and decisive.

The ghost face that was formed from the green mist began to violently shake and severed the portion that was engulfed by the yellow mist. As the yellow mist withdrew, the remaining ghost mist roiled and condensed into a smaller ghost face. At that moment, it hastily turned around and shot toward the Cadaver Demon at the center of the stone platform.

After knowing that Han Li was not to be trifled with, it planned to return to its own body before tearing Han Li apart.

When Han Li saw the ghost face turn around, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a mocking expression.

He calmly pointed at the ten or so nails wrapped in golden lightning and pointed at them. In the instant that the ghost face entered the Cadaver Demon’s body, the silver nails fell like lightning.

Just as the Cadaver Demon was about to move, its limbs, abdomen, and other vital organs were struck by the nails. Due to the Cadaver Demon’s body being as hard as iron, the silver nails were unable to harm its body in the slightest.

However, the arcs of golden lightning struck the Cadaver Demon without the slightest hesitation, and a large golden net immediately enshrouded the Cadaver Demon.

The Cadaver Demon’s body immediately released a burnt and putrid smell. The soul that had just possessed the Cadaver Demon’s body had been blown away by this attack. At this moment, the green ghost mist had strangely grown even larger than when it had possessed the Cadaver Demon’s body. Furthermore, a large and a small ghost face could be faintly seen within the green mist.

The two ghost faces desperately tried to possess the Cadaver Demon’s body again, but they were struck by the flickering arcs of lightning on the silver nails and were unable to enter.

“As expected, the Cadaver Demon’s body contains a hidden soul. It seems I didn’t waste my efforts.”

When Han Li saw this, he was overjoyed. With the last of his worries gone, he fiercely commanded the Weeping Soul Beast with his spiritual sense. Immediately, the strange beast snorted again, and a yellow light that was several times more dazzling than before shot out towards the two ghost faces.

This time, the two ghost faces weren’t as lucky as the last time. As the light swept past them, the two ghost faces only had time to let out miserable shrieks before they were swept away by yellow light and brought back into the Weeping Soul Beast’s mouth.

The Weeping Soul Beast crazily swallowed a few times and patted its belly with excitement, appearing to be extremely satisfied.

When Han Li saw this, a smile appeared on his face. He was not in a hurry to retrieve the huge silver nails. Instead, he calmly walked towards the Cadaver Demon’s body.

Han Li arrived in front of the stone platform and looked at the thin silver chains tied to the Cadaver Demon. After some thought, he suddenly flicked his finger and a golden sword Qi slashed down.

With a crisp clang, the silver chains were completely unscathed.

Han Li’s expression remained unchanged as if he had expected this to happen. He opened his mouth and spat out a small golden sword.

After he activated it, the small sword instantly became dazzlingly sharp and silently struck one of the silver chains.

A crisp sound rang out as golden light flashed, and a rice-sized hole appeared on the silver chain.

Han Li’s expression changed slightly.

Although he knew that the silver chains could restrain the Cadaver Demon that had boundless strength and they were definitely not an ordinary magic tool, he was still greatly surprised that even the Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Sword mixed with Auric Essence could only cause a little damage!

However, although Han Li was surprised, he did not stop executing the incantation gesture. The flying swords aimed at the same spot and continuously slashed down.

After a long while, the silver chains were finally severed by Han Li.

Han Li curiously waved his hand at the silver chains, and the item that trapped the Cadaver Demon immediately became extremely agile like a silver snake, turning into two streaks of silver light and landing in his hand.

He gently stroked the silver chains with his finger and discovered that the seemingly smooth surface of the silver chains was densely engraved with tiny runes. The details of the runes were almost indiscernible to the naked eye.

The corner of Han Li’s eye twitched, and a trace of shock flashed through his eyes.
