Chapter 208 Refining Yin Corpse and the Protagonist's Plea for Help
Half of the props in the warehouse had been cleared out and replaced with materials. The materials needed to refine three Yin corpses and one spirit servant were too much, and Qian Gongzi was wealthy – filling the warehouse with props.
Zhang Yuanqing applied for them one by one, taking out more than forty kinds of medicinal materials in one go.
He first moved Guan Ya's big bed to the window, clearing out a spacious area, then swept the dust under the bed.
Finally, he went to the bedroom to move the corpses of the Greedy Dream Divine General and Hundred-Man Slayer, as well as the silver-haired princess lying stiffly.
The princess wasn't sleeping, just resting with her eyes closed. As soon as she heard that the refining was starting early, she immediately opened her eyes, and her demonic red pupils flickered with light.
She followed Zhang Yuanqing to Guan Ya's room, went straight to the corner where the materials were piled, squatted down, and checked them repeatedly for a long time, nodding in satisfaction:
"It's all here, nothing's missing."
Then, she began to take off her t-shirt and long skirt, more decisively than ever before.
Zhang Yuanqing watched her take off her goose-yellow long sleeves,
Untie her skirt belt, letting the thin, beautiful long skirt slide down her jade legs.
Under the light, her white porcelain-like skin shimmered, contrasting with the black lace, creating a strong visual impact.
"You go first?" Zhang Yuanqing said awkwardly, "I still want you to keep an eye on things, after all, it's my first time refining a Level 6 Yin corpse."
Princess Yinyao looked down and glanced at the materials, "There aren't many materials. If you fail three times, I'll be disappointed. I'll go first."
Without saying a word, she bent over, stuck out her buttocks, pinched the lace trim, and pulled it down from her waist.
Now, she could already take off her clothes with ease and be honest with each other... still with some slight shyness and discomfort, but after doing it once or twice, taking off her clothes became very smooth.
Zhang Yuanqing said helplessly, "Don't be impatient, help me process the materials first."
"No." Princess Yinyao just lay there.
Huh, she even knows how to be capricious. It seems she's very eager to level up. Also, she had been lonely in the ancient tomb for hundreds of years, making it difficult to progress... Zhang Yuanqing bent down and picked up the skirt, throwing it on the princess's lower waist.
Although it was a top-quality figure, seeing it too much still stirred up some emotions.
Zhang Yuanqing laid out the materials one by one. The main materials for the princess to advance from Level 5 to Level 6 were Yin Soul Stone and Star Heart. The former was a crystal formed by countless souls.
The latter was a pure heart containing a huge amount of Star Power, yes, the heart of a Star Official.
There weren't many auxiliary materials, only six kinds.
Zhang Yuanqing skillfully crushed the auxiliary materials, making the "ink" for drawing spirit symbols, and at the same time, he carved spirit symbols on the two main materials.
This was part of the formation, which could allow the Yin corpse to better accommodate the main materials.
After the preliminary work was prepared, he lifted the princess's gauze skirt from her waist, and as the skirt slowly fell, he picked up his pen, and with a flourish, he drew smooth spirit symbols.
Perhaps because of the night, Zhang Yuanqing was in good condition. In half an hour, he didn't make a single mistake, successfully completing the second step of the vast project.
"Phew" He gently exhaled a breath, wiping the sweat from his forehead.
"Your rune drawing talent is very good." Princess Yinyao couldn't hide her surprise, "With The Way of the Extraordinary's shallow foundation, it's difficult to succeed in a large Level 6 formation in one go. Only we ancient cultivators can guarantee the success rate by doing our homework day after day and practicing diligently."
"I swallowed the spirit body of the Pure Yang Sect Leader..." Zhang Yuanqing replied calmly, "For me, it's as simple as doing junior high school math problems."
Princess Yinyao was shocked by his momentum, "You're really amazing, no wonder Master values you so much. If it were back then, she would definitely have taken you as her direct disciple, and we would have been fellow disciples."
"And then steal her coffin together?"
"........"
After chatting for a few words, Zhang Yuanqing had rested enough, and then proceeded to the last step, drawing the formation.
An hour later, a circular formation appeared on the spacious floor of the room.
In the center was a Spirit Nourishing Talisman. With this talisman as the core, twisted but Dao-rhythmic spirit symbols were connected and interlocked with each other, forming a circular formation with a diameter of five meters.
Zhang Yuanqing placed the Yin Soul Stone and Star Heart on the edge of the circular formation, and then picked up Princess Yinyao and walked to the center of the formation.
He put the beautiful Yin corpse down, retreated to the outside of the circular formation, squatted down, pressed his palm against the spirit symbol, and infused Taiyin power.
The spirit symbols on the circular formation, Princess Yinyao, and the two main materials lit up at the same time, emitting a bright black light. The majestic Yin energy surged to the ceiling and then slowly sank, spreading throughout the room.
Zhang Yuanqing steadily input Taiyin power. After a while, the two main materials "melted", turning into brilliant Star Power and pure Soul Power, pouring into Princess Yinyao's heart and eyebrows.
The princess's body trembled, and she slowly floated,
Half a meter off the ground, her long hair hanging to the ground.
The Taiyin power rising from the formation lifted her up, washing her body and soul, and gradually refining the power of the two main materials, accelerating the fusion.
This process lasted for a full twenty minutes. Zhang Yuanqing continuously input Taiyin power, almost draining himself.
If he mainly cultivated Taiyin power, this consumption wouldn't be anything... Zhang Yuanqing watched the princess's delicate body slowly descend,
Thinking that there were still two Yin corpses and one spirit servant, he secretly bared his teeth.
Princess Yinyao returned to the circular formation, and the remaining spiritual power in the formation poured into her body, absorbing every bit.
She straightened up and jumped up, her eyes blooming with a brilliant red light, and a powerful aura surged out, stirring up a strong Yin wind in the spacious bedroom.
"I broke through!" Princess Yinyao happily sensed the changes in her body, and repeated, "I broke through!"
Her exquisite face had no expression, but her violently fluctuating spirit was like a cheerful and excited girl.
Zhang Yuanqing rarely saw such intense emotional fluctuations in her. This princess had traveled the world and had clear thoughts. She usually watched the queen and the others with a "condescending" attitude.
Encouraging, teasing, detached from herself,
Watching the changes in the world with a smile.
At this time, she was like a girl.
"Adapt well, I'll rest for half an hour." Zhang Yuanqing walked to the window, took off his shoes, and went to sleep.
……
It wasn't until 4:30 in the morning that
Zhang Yuanqing finally refined the Greedy Dream Divine General and Hundred-Man Slayer into Yin corpses, and Yichuan Mei also became a spirit servant.
Among them, the main materials of Hundred-Man Slayer were the snake woman's venom glands and fangs. This Grand Sword Alliance leader was at the peak of Level 5. Zhang Yuanqing promoted him to the early stage of Level 6, and then integrated the snake woman's Level 6 late-stage venom glands and fangs into him to enhance his quality.
Hundred-Man Slayer was now a close-combat Yin corpse with toxin attacks.
The Greedy Dream Divine General didn't have any attribute bonuses. Zhang Yuanqing considered it again and again and decided that he didn't need it.
On the one hand, this Divine General was a close-combat profession himself, and he was also at the peak of Level 6. His strength, speed, agility, and other attributes were one level stronger than himself, so he didn't need fancy blessings.
On the other hand, it was extremely difficult to refine a Level 6 peak Yin corpse. Adding materials from other professions would greatly increase the difficulty and the chances of failure would skyrocket.
The refining of Yichuan Mei was much simpler. There was no need to add main materials, just transform her into a spirit servant, imprint her, and then wash her soul with his own Taiyin power, turning her into the shape of the master.
As for Blood Rose, Zhang Yuanqing didn't plan to upgrade her anymore. This Yin corpse had already begun to transform into a beast, and after four or five more uses, she would completely turn into an irrational werewolf.
Then he could only manually clean it up.
Just use it as a consumable.
Four Yin corpses, three spirit servants, I can be considered a Night Wanderer now. In the future, I'll assign props to them, and the fighting styles can be switched and combined... Zhang Yuanqing suddenly had a strong urge to practice.
Unfortunately, he couldn't find an evil professional of the same level to practice with in a short time.
Just as he was thinking, he saw Yichuan Mei prostrate on the ground, and a mental wave came:
"Master, I have a request."
"Speak!" Zhang Yuanqing was very gentle to his spirit servants.
Yichuan Mei raised her pretty face, "Please whip and humiliate me every day, Master..."
Seeming to be afraid that Zhang Yuanqing would refuse, she added:
"It's a need on the spiritual level. If I can't be satisfied, my mentality will gradually distort until I lose control of my mind. This is a common problem for evil professions. The higher the level, the more serious the symptoms."
There's such a thing... Zhang Yuanqing's mouth twitched, and he recalled the evil professions he knew. It seemed that it was true.
Whether it was the Demon Eye, Fear, or Lust, the higher the level, the more distorted the mentality, and it was difficult to control.
He thought for a while, condensed the Taiyin power into a phantom whip,
And whipped Yichuan Mei hard:
"Is this okay?"
Yichuan Mei screamed,
And fell down weakly, but mentally excited: "Thank you, Master, thank you, Master.
If you can use the power of the Sun God to whip me, that would be even better..."
What a pervert. Zhang Yuanqing immediately satisfied her.
Listening to Yichuan Mei's painful and shrill screams, he said in a deep voice: "Whipping is okay, but humiliation is out of the question. You are not even as good as the princess."
"I, I can also possess..." Yichuan Mei was unwilling to have her entertainment experience cut in half, but after being glared at by Zhang Yuanqing, she gave in helplessly, "You are the master, you have the final say."
Zhang Yuanqing originally wanted to inquire about the information about the Void Sect (Southern Sect), but after being busy all night, he was already exhausted, so he took the spirit servants away, let Yinyao take the two Yin corpses away, and went to bed to sleep.
"Ding ding ding..."
A rapid ringtone came.
So many phone calls tonight? Zhang Yuanqing, who had just gone to bed, picked up his phone with some irritability, and saw that the caller was Ling Jun.
His spirits lifted, and his sleepiness dissipated a lot. He answered the phone.
"Is Guan Ya by your side?" Ling Jun's voice was serious and deep.
"Unable to withstand whipping, she just cried and begged for mercy and called me big brother, and is already asleep." Zhang Yuanqing joked, and then asked in a serious tone:
"She is out on a mission, what's the matter?"
Ling Jun breathed a sigh of relief, "I have found some clues..."
He immediately told Yuanshi Tianzun about the information about "Mountains and Rivers Last Forever", as well as the cause of death of Ling Tuo and "Mountains and Rivers Last Forever", which he learned from Elder Sun, lowering his voice.
"So it was really him who did it..." Zhang Yuanqing took a breath, "Did Elder Sun say why?"
"Old Sun, who is confused, told me not to court death." Ling Jun said in a deep voice.
"Don't investigate it." Zhang Yuanqing said with a solemn tone, "I don't want you to get into trouble."
He was the one who brought Ling Jun into this mess. It was he who wanted to know about the past, to find out the truth about the disbandment of Xiaoyao and the death of his father.
But if finding out the truth would cost Ling Jun his life, Zhang Yuanqing would rather drag it on for a while and investigate it himself in the future. He just didn't know if the hidden dangers left by his father's generation would erupt in advance.
Taking his life when he was unprepared.
"I don't want to give up just like that, but don't worry, I will carefully probe at the edges and won't touch the core. As long as I don't touch the core, I won't be silenced." Ling Jun comforted:
"Victoria is protecting me."
"Who is Victoria?"
"Um, um, she is a trustworthy elder." Ling Jun said.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Yuanqing heard a woman's lazy and charming laughter from the speaker: "I was still calling me dear on the bed just now, and now I have become a trustworthy elder?"
"I have something to do, I'll hang up first." Ling Jun seemed a little embarrassed and said in a hurry.
I was wrong, this guy is not much better than the Demon Monarch, they are all scumbags without principles. Zhang Yuanqing listened to the busy tone coming from the phone, and for a moment, he didn't know how to express all the complaints in his heart.
Trustworthy elder? Lover? Is this guy Ling Jun's filial piety cheese that has been fermented for more than ten years? It has deteriorated beyond repair.
Zhang Yuanqing stuffed the phone under the pillow, thinking about the deaths of Ling Tuo and "Mountains and Rivers Last Forever", thinking about the role that Elder Sun played in this matter.
Obviously, Elder Sun was implicated in the past.
But he shouldn't have been deeply involved, so he was just snowed, not silenced.
"The Taiyi Sect line cannot be forced. Let it go when it's time to let go. If I end up killing Ling Jun or attracting the attention of the Taiyi Sect Master, I will be in danger. Fu Qingyang can't protect me."
"I can also investigate from other channels. There's no need to risk my life in a tiger's den. I should go to sleep first, get enough energy and then talk about it."
He pulled up the quilt and fell into a deep sleep.
The next day, at 9:30.
Zhang Yuanqing was once again awakened by the harsh ringing,
He picked up his phone with sleepy eyes, and the caller was Xiahou Aotian.
"Did you get the money?" Zhang Yuanqing asked.
"Yuanshi Tianzun, I'm being targeted." Xiahou Aotian said loudly: "The Qin Dynasty antiques we sold are being targeted. I'm hiding in the Treasure House. Quickly support me, the protagonist."
