“Isn't that still grave robbing?”
Qin Xuan frowned slightly; he personally was unwilling to rob graves.
However, from the current situation, it seemed that grave robbing was the only option.
“You don’t need to rob graves. The situation in that place is a bit strange.”
The burial ground is strange?
“That place is an Ancient Battlefield, not an ordinary burial ground.”
“I heard that when the Great Gan Dynasty's Grand Ancestor established his Dynasty, he once rode across the battlefield there, defeated his former opponents, and then buried all those who died in battle in a large pit.”
“You mean, that place is a Ten Thousand Corpse Pit filled with dead people?”
Qin Xuan finally realized why Jin Ming said it wasn't a burial ground.
Such Ten Thousand Corpse Pits from battles were too common on Ancient Battlefields.
On the Great Gan land, from ancient times to the present, countless Dynasties have risen and fallen. The piled-up bones of the dead are immeasurable, so this is nothing.
“This place isn't very useful, is it? The Grand Ancestor's Realm was extraordinary, but his enemies back then were just ordinary people. What use could that place have?”
Qin Xuan frowned, not taking it seriously at all.
Hearing this, Jin Ming immediately shook his head.
“Master, normally, that place indeed has nothing special, but that Ancient Battlefield is an Extremely Yin Land. So many corpses buried there, after so many years, the corpses and Yin Souls there have already undergone changes.”
The Yin Souls have changed?
Qin Xuan frowned in surprise.
“After so many years, a Ghost King has been born there!”
“A Ghost King!”
This time, Qin Xuan was truly surprised beyond words.
To be honest, he really hadn't expected those ordinary Yin Souls to turn into something like a Ghost King.
“Although ghosts are a type of soul, they are completely different from Soul Cultivators. How can a Ghost King be used to refine Corpse Puppets?”
Qin Xuan was truly puzzled.
Not only that.
Although Qin Xuan hadn't fought a Ghost King.
But to be called a Ghost King, its strength must be far from simple.
“Master, it's not using the Ghost King to refine Corpse Puppets, but using the Ghost King's Physical Body to refine them.”
Seeing Qin Xuan's confusion, Jin Ming quickly explained.
“The so-called Ghost King is not actually formed from the souls of those soldiers.”
“Because that place is an Extremely Yin Land, after those corpses were buried there, their souls devoured each other, and finally attached to some of the corpses, surviving by absorbing the surrounding Yin Qi.”
“Since they absorb Yin Qi, some corpses, nourished by the Yin Qi, turned into Yin Corpses. Once a Yin Corpse forms, from then on, the Yin Corpse can continuously absorb nearby Yin Qi, thereby increasing the Yin Corpse's Rank.”
“The Ghost King is formed by the mutual devouring of souls among these Yin Corpses. After so many years, the Yin Corpses' Rank has long become very strong.”
“The Ghost King's Yin Corpse Rank is even equivalent to the Shangqing Realm. If it weren't for the fact that Yin Corpses' combat power is affected during the day, this thing would be even more suitable for refining into Corpse Puppets than the Physical Bodies of Cultivators.”
Qin Xuan finally understood what was going on.
It turned out that not only did these souls devour each other to form a Ghost King, but many of their corpses also absorbed Yin Qi and formed Yin Corpses.
“So, as long as I control these Yin Corpses, I can use them to refine Corpse Puppets?”
Jin Ming nodded.
“Before, because we focused our attention on how to find more suitable Cultivator Physical Bodies, we didn't prioritize refining Corpse Puppets.”
Qin Xuan nodded slightly.
“Spare Physical Bodies or whatever are not important at all. For me, what's important is getting enough things to enhance my combat power.”
Whether it's to guard against the upcoming attacks from Soul Cultivators or for the Kun Peng Nest, these things need to be prepared.
“The Kun Peng Nest is a must-go. Even if I can't enter the capital to participate in the assessment, there will always be a way to sneak in.”
Dozens of Dynasties around Great Gan, plus the various large and small forces nearby, it is estimated that tens of thousands of Cultivators will eventually enter the Kun Peng Nest.
“Don't worry, you can definitely get in. And, I can assure you that many Cultivators of higher Realms will try to sneak in later.”
Han Ye said with certainty.
Qin Xuan expressed agreement.
This was not at all beyond his expectation.
Those major forces would outwardly take various measures to prohibit their high-Rank Disciples from entering the Kun Peng Nest.
However, later they would have ways to let their higher-Realm Disciples sneak in.
“Besides these, forces from outside the East Sea will naturally not miss this opportunity. Even if the forces on the East Sea side unite, in the end, there will definitely be forces that will find a way to break through their restrictions and enter.”
Han Ye said, and Qin Xuan stroked his chin, then he looked at Jin Ming beside him.
“You must have been to that place. Tell me, how strong is the Ghost King?”
Hearing this, Jin Ming eagerly explained to Qin Xuan as if presenting a treasure.
“The Ghost King's strength is certainly not weak; not only is it not weak, but it can even be said to be very powerful.”
“Their strength is roughly equivalent to the Peak of the Shangqing Realm. If they could absorb more Yin Qi, they might even reach the Taiqing Realm.”
Peak of the Shangqing Realm?
Hearing this, Qin Xuan smiled helplessly.
What a joke, Peak of the Shangqing Realm, how could that be an opponent?
Wouldn't going there be seeking death?
“Master, don't worry. Although the Ghost King is powerful, because they devour each other, their intelligence is nowhere near that of humans. As long as we use a feint, we can easily lure them away and obtain their Physical Body.”
“Their Physical Body is also equivalent to the Peak of the Shangqing Realm. Although when refined into a Corpse Puppet it will only have the strength equivalent to the Early Stage of the Shangqing Realm, the advantage is that it will not backfire on the Master.”
Unlike Corpse Puppets refined from Cultivator Physical Bodies, which might backfire on their former master.
The Shangqing Realm Ghost King's Physical Body would not backfire at all.
As long as their Physical Body is obtained, everything can be easily handled.
This is a good opportunity.
If he could really get a Shangqing Realm Physical Body before entering the Kun Peng Nest, he would make a huge profit.
Suddenly, Qin Xuan's eyes lit up.
“Isn't a Substitute Paper Figure most suitable for this kind of thing? Maybe I can really get good things with a Substitute Paper Figure.”
Qin Xuan truly wanted to get that Ghost King Yin Corpse.
“Go, lead the way. We'll go to the place you mentioned and take a good look at how strong that Ghost King truly is and how powerful its Yin Corpse is.”
“Okay, Master, I'll lead the way now.”
Jin Ming was overjoyed and immediately prepared to lead the way.
