But it wasn’t over yet. When a person died, his soul remained.
“Illuminate the Mysterious Underworld, the souls of the four directions, appear! ”
As Zhang Chen recited the incantation, Wu Chang’s soul floated out from the blood river.
Wu Chang’s ethereal figure looked terrified. “Please, don’t… don’t do this…
Zhang Chen remained unmoved and activated the Soul Devouring Technique. He opened his mouth and sucked in Wu Chang’s soul, refining it in his belly.
Feeling the strengthening of his soul, Zhang Chen revealed a satisfied smile.
At this moment, the river of blood stirred and reformed into Blood supreme-ruler Sons.
One of the Blood supreme-ruler Sons carried a pile of items and came to Zhang Chen’s side.
It was the standard set of three items for the Blood supreme-ruler Sect: a storage bag, a blood storage bottle, and a beast-rearing bag.
“It’s time to take stock of our gains. This time, there shouldn’t be anyone interrupting us.” Zhang Chen first opened the storage bag and scanned it with his supreme sense.
Inside were 800 spirit stones, several bottles of pills, a few unknown spiritual herbs, and some odds and ends.
“As expected of someone at the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment realm. He’s really rich. 800 spirit stones is like 800 bowls of blood essence!”
Zhang Chen exclaimed and then opened the blood storage bottle and the beast-rearing bag.
The blood storage bottle contained demon blood, while the beast-rearing bag held a second -level Qi Refinement demon beast, which was a pleasant surprise. Next, Zhang Chen took out Cai Yongxiang’s storage bag.
Perhaps because he had just broken through to the Foundation Establishment realm, there were only a dozen spirit stones, a book, a jade slip, and a pile of bones in his storage bag.
Zhang Chen reached in and pulled out the book and jade slip.
On the cover of the book were three characters made up of skeletal bones,
‘White Bone Scripture.’
“White Bone Hall’s cultivation technique?” Zhang Chen flipped through it with curiosity.
[Detected cultivation technique, White Bone Scripture. Visualizing the White Bone Demon God, strengthening the bones, using the white bones as an attack method, casting spells.]
[Side effect: The flesh and blood disappear, the soul transfers to the bone and becomes a half-dead bone demon.]
[Please wait a moment, system modification is in progress…]
[Ding! Modification complete. Side effects canceled.]
Zhang Chen looked like a human on the surface, but he was essentially condensed from blood. This White Bone Scripture was useless to him and could only be used to broaden his horizons and understand the spell methods of the White Bone Hall.
“I hope I can gain something from this jade slip.” Zhang Chen put away the book and stuck the jade slip to his forehead.
[Detected cultivation technique, Bone Slave Sacrifice. Using skeletons as materials, use a secret technique to refine them into puppet servants. The strength depends on the materials and the degree of refinement.]
[Side effect: If the bone slave is destroyed, it will be implicated and its soul will be damaged.]
[Please wait a moment, system modification is in progress…]
[Ding! Modification complete. Side effects canceled.]
After reading the ‘Bone Slave Sacrificial Ceremony’, two thoughts popped into Zhang Chen’s mind.
Could Cai Yongxiangs White Bone True Body be refined into a bone slave?
In theory, it should be possible.
Then, could the disciples of the White Bone Hall be used as materials for bone slaves trained by the sect’s higher- ups?
Let’s go back and give it a try. IfI can refine the White Bone True Body into a bone slave. It’s like having an additional Foundation Establishment helper.
With this in mind, Zhang Chen used his mental power to retrieve the Blood supreme-ruler Sons and turned it into blood light, flying towards the imperial palace. Upon returning to the palace, the giant White Bone True Body was still in the same place.
Because it was too big, Zhang Chen could only dismantle it and put it into his storage bag.
Cai Yongxiang had died, the royal crisis had been resolved. Although nearly a thousand guards had died, and the palace had been reduced to ruins, King Zhenluo felt that everything was worth it.
Peace returned to the capital, and the palace was being rebuilt in full swing.
Soon, half a year had passed.
Even after six months, many people were still talking about the immortal battle half a year ago.
But, due to word-of-mouth and hearsay, there were some deviations in the story.
Legend had it that it was raining blood that day, and the entire sky was red with continuous thunder.
There were white bone demons massacring in the palace, and no one could stop them.
At the critical moment, the Imperial Preceptor appeared and fought a huge battle with the demons. It was extremely intense and eventually, the white bone demons were slain.
In the palace, Zhang Chen sat cross-legged with a huge skeleton in front of him.
“After half a year of refinement, there’s only one final step left, to ignite the soul fire.”
“Soul fire, ignite!”
Zhang Chen made a hand seal and pointed at his forehead. A wisp of bright flames appeared at his fingertips.
Zhang Chen flicked his finger, and the flames flew into the eye sockets of the skull.
“Boom!”
Like sparks falling into oil, two balls of flames suddenly ignited in the empty eye sockets of the skull, illuminating the surrounding area like lanterns. Originally just an inanimate skeleton, it became agile as if it had come to life.
“Rise!”
At Zhang Chen’s command, the skeleton on the ground suddenly sat up, and its huge body directly punched a hole in the roof.
“Great, it’s finally done.”
Zhang Chen showed a pleased expression as he gained another Foundation Establishment helper.
“Imperial Preceptor, what happened?”The guards heard the sound of the roof collapsing and rushed in to investigate. When they saw the White Bone True Body, they were almost scared out of their wits.
“Bone… Bone Demon!”
“Don’t be afraid. This skeleton is under my control now,” Zhang Chen explained and instructed.
“A year has passed. Go and tell your king to prepare the medicinal herbs and mortals with spiritual roots as tribute. I will return to the sect in three days.” “I’ll go now.” The guard fled.
Zhang Chen looked at the huge skeleton again: “It’s a good thing it can be stored in the beast bag like a demon beast, otherwise it would be very inconvenient.”
This bone slave could be understood as a different kind of puppet.
The only difference was that he had the Soul Fire and could absorb spiritual energy on its own, without consuming spirit stones.
Three days passed in a flash, and Zhang Chen left Zhenluo Kingdom with a large amount of medicinal herbs and dozens of mortals with spiritual roots, escorted by soldiers.
The journey went smoothly, except for a small incident on the twentieth day.
“Imperial Preceptor, a woman has asked for our help. She claims to be a princess from a neighboring country and is being pursued. She wants us to escort her back to her country.”
Zhang Chen frowned. “Ignore her and let her leave.”
‘Yes.”
The soldier bowed and left, but soon returned. “Imperial Preceptor, the woman refuses to leave and wants to follow us to the town.”
Zhang Chen sneered: “Does she want us to be her shield? Tie her up and hand her over to whoever comes after her.”
He didn’t care about the truth or who was right or wrong. He didn’t like the trouble caused by this kind of behavior.
The soldier was a little stunned, but he still did as he was told. “Yes.” Shortly after, Zhang Chen heard the woman screaming and cursing.
Not long after, a group of people really came after them. When the bound woman was handed over, they were also very surprised.
Perhaps seeing that there were many people in the convoy and that there were soldiers escorting them, they did not do anything out of line and left with the woman.
Two months later.
“Has Zhang Chen completed the mission and returned?” Hong Longguang, who received the news, was not surprised. Zhang Chen did not ask him for help before, so he must have had means of self-protection and confidence.
Gu Pingshan of the Alchemy Pavilion also thought so. That day, he sent someone to restore the transaction of exchanging demon blood for refined blood.
Seeing that Zhang Chen could escape from Wu Chang’s hands, Zhang Chen’s senior brothers completely gave up on the idea of investigating the source of refined blood.
Zhang Chen returned to his previous ordinary life and continued it until the deadline for the last mission outside, and Wu Chang still had not returned..
