Chapter 1539

"The method of refining Double Resentment Zombie is too vicious; it's not suitable for Chen Chuyang, and he currently has no use for it."

"Ready-made zombies are also useless; at his cultivation level, the existence of Double Resentment Zombie does more harm than good, and it also poses danger to his own people, safety cannot be assured; this thing, keeping it is also useless, it's like tasteless to eat, a shame to waste."

'"Ah, Double Resentment Zombie is useless to me too; better to feed it to Heishanyang." After researching, Chen Chuyang still gained some insight—for example, the secret art "Extreme Yin Corpse Refining Method" is truly extraordinary, and he also understood the viciousness of the Corpse Refining Sect.'

"It is estimated that within the Corpse Refining Sect there are many different corpse-refining methods, all are heinous, exploiting human wickedness, or rather, continually tormenting, continually letting the zombie generate resentment, thus making this corpse stronger; for strength, they spare no means."

'"The "Extreme Yin Corpse Refining Method" and "Extreme Yin Body Refining Method"—these two secret arts are both extremely vicious; among them, the "Extreme Yin Body Refining Method" is not bad, using corpse qi to refine the body, making the zombies under one's command stronger, and oneself also grows stronger, closely related to oneself.'

'"Refining the body with corpse qi, forging oneself into a terrifying corpse-like physique; at the same time, this refining method also has drawbacks, as corpse qi continually penetrates the body and merges with it, one's body will also undergo changes, gradually turning into a zombie, and ultimately will still advance toward the zombie direction.'

'"The loss outweighs the gain, but this method is very effective; it is the choice of many Corpse Refining Sect disciples.'

'"The "Extreme Yin Body Refining Method" can reduce the influence of corpse qi to very low, but it still has an influence; a little carelessness and one will become part of the corpse qi, ultimately becoming like a zombie.'

"Neither human nor zombie; it is neither human nor zombie."

"In between the two, this state is very terrifying and frightening, but it can greatly increase one's strength; it is many people's choice; for strength, what's wrong with becoming a zombie?"

"At the same time, this secret art also has another method: letting the zombie and oneself merge into one, becoming one; he is the zombie, the zombie is him; at that point, he is the Corpse King, possessing both the terrifying corpse-like body and terrifying power, as well as a human soul and consciousness; such a combination is the Corpse King."

"This is also the pursuit of all Corpse Refining Sect disciples: to be formidable and under one's own control; this path can be walked."

"It is also the pursuit of everyone in the Corpse Refining Sect; unfortunately, this step is not so easy; whether one can become a Corpse King is related to the zombie; precisely speaking, the zombie's strength and whether its potential is strong concerns later cultivation; absolutely cannot be careless."

"What the Extreme Yin Corpse General wanted was to have the Double Resentment Zombie assimilate with Lian Hongchen, making the three zombies become a unique zombie, mutually accomplishing each other; finally, he fused the three zombies, thoroughly becoming a Corpse King."

"Using Lian Hongchen to suppress the resentment of the Double Resentment Zombie, and also using the Double Resentment Zombie to suppress Lian Hongchen's hegemony, achieving a balance; this gave him the opportunity to devour them, simultaneously possessing the advantages of all three, and having limitless potential."

"At that time, he would be the strongest Corpse King of the Corpse Refining Sect; this was his original idea."

"Unfortunately, Lian Hongchen encountered a problem, causing him unable to take this step."

'"The path to Corpse King is not easy, ah; the Corpse Refining Sect's Corpse King way differs from other zombie paths; combining human and zombie violates the Heavenly Dao.'

'"This path is very difficult, not suitable for me; I will still cultivate step by step; however, perhaps this method?'

"Chen Chuyang thought it over, then shook his head: 'Forget it, better not to take risks; for a bit of strength, letting oneself fall into danger—this foolish thing, I'd rather not do.'"

'"However, perhaps one could devour corpse qi, merge it into my Hunyuan Dao, enhancing my Dao.'

"The Hunyuan Dao Scripture, this cultivation method, can devour any energy, forming respective Dao within one's body, then merging into Hunyuan."

"This is Chen Chuyang's Dao, also his original Dao, the zombie Dao, which is also a kind of Dao."

"The methods recorded in the Extreme Yin Canon can be attempted to cultivate, strengthening one's own zombie Dao."

"Chen Chuyang operated the method of the Extreme Yin Canon, transforming the corpse qi of the Double Resentment Zombie, forcibly devouring her corpse qi and resentment, then condensing his own Dao; the Double Resentment Zombie naturally would resist, unfortunately, it was useless."

"Being completely suppressed, motionless, it became Chen Chuyang's source of cultivation."

"Half a month later."

"Chen Chuyang opened his eyes; the corpse qi all over his body dissipated, transforming into Hunyuan true qi; the Golden Core inside his body, the seed of the zombie Dao, condensed; a divine ability imprint, the seed of the Dao; corpse qi continually produced, as the Extreme Yin Canon operates, self-generating corpse qi, self-growing."

"The operation of the Extreme Yin Canon surprised him greatly; the corpse qi produced was abundant and fast; this quick-success method is also not utterly useless."

'"Corpse qi is increasing, the zombie Dao is also improving; soon it will be on par with other Daos.'

'"My Dao is also increasing; my strength has risen somewhat.'

'"As corpse qi increases, my strength also rises; refining the body with corpse qi also has merits, it can be transformed into refining the body with Hunyuan true qi; only the mode of operation differs, but the result is the same.'

"Refining the body with Hunyuan true qi—his body itself is strong; the Hunyuan Dao Scripture itself already has body-refining effect; moreover, it's not lacking; the Extreme Yin Body Refining Method can be considered to have perfected this method's body-refining aspect; at this moment, Chen Chuyang understood that the Hunyuan Dao Scripture is also not perfect, and needs continual improvement, thereby forging his own path."

"Having reached this point, he began to incorporate his own understanding; he knows that any cultivation method is the predecessors' practice, most suitable for the predecessors, not necessarily most suitable for him; previously he lacked the ability to perfect it, now he has the ability, so naturally he should start improving in this direction."

'"The Corpse Refining Sect's corpse-refining methods still have merits; taking oneself as the material to refine into a zombie, the end of the road is a zombie.'

'"Is it a problem of the method, or of the Extreme Yin Corpse General?'

'"However, this is not something I'm considering; this Double Resentment Zombie is also useless; keeping it would rather be a calamity.'

"Chen Chuyang thought back and forth, yet still directly acted, refining this corpse, refining corpse into elixir, same method, same divine ability; the Double Resentment Zombie's body shrank, finally becoming a pill."

"One… a special pill, a pill that has shed its corpse qi."

"On the pill's surface there are faint patterns; after the resentment and corpse qi dissipate, all calculations become a pill."

"Gazing at this pill, Chen Chuyang sighed: 'The path of cultivation must be undertaken with utmost caution; one misstep leads to endless errors.'"

'"I must not follow the Extreme Yin Corpse General's later path; otherwise, it would end up benefiting others.'

'"Whoosh whoosh whoosh.'

"Taking a deep breath, Chen Chuyang couldn't help but wryly smile."
