It was now perfect to use as a wager.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the corpse storage bag was something he currently needed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was about to head down the mountain soon and was worried about how to take Lou Er with him when this corpse storage bag came knocking on his door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Lou Yi’s words fell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lou Er actively stepped forward into the field, standing face to face with the tall iron corpse, less than five feet apart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ladies and gentlemen, those who want to place bets can do so now,\" said an elder disciple from the Cyan Cloud Alliance dressed in a dark blue Daoist robe, smiling,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The old rules apply: those betting on Lou Yi’s lifebound corpse to win, place your silver on the left tray.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those betting on Guan Min’s lifebound corpse to win, place your silver on the right tray.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the result is out, our alliance will take a ten percent cut of the winnings. The remaining amount will be split according to the ratio of silver initially wagered; those who bet more will get more, those who bet less will get less.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, people on-site hesitated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Emotionally, they wanted to support Lou Yi, who was from the same Disciple Peak, but reason told them Guan Min was sure to win.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, one was merely a spirit corpse, while the other was an iron corpse tempered by the Thunder Technique, one of the strongest among iron corpses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I bet on Lou Yi to win!\" A young man in a light blue Daoist robe stepped forward boldly, throwing a small handful of gold leaves onto the left tray.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such decisiveness surprised everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was tall and slender, with fair skin, and though his eyes were small, he exuded a composed, scholarly aura; it was none other than Rong Xuejian, whom they hadn’t seen for a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I bet on Lou Yi too!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Forget it, I’ll bet on Guan Min.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, about half the people bet on Lou Yi, while most others bet on Guan Min, after all, nobody had a reason to go against money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the arena, Lou Er and Guan Min’s spirit corpse, ’Big Bull’, were about to face off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Whoosh!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Big Bull threw a straightforward punch forward, the sound of it tearing through the air was clear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to its sheer force, some white air currents could even be seen at the front of his fist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Lou Er stood motionless as if petrified.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh no, it’s over, I knew I shouldn’t have cared about face and just bet on Guan Min directly!\" complained a skinny, black man from the crowd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Lou Er wasn’t as easily knocked down as he expected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Big Bull’s iron fist was about to touch his body,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He delicately pivoted on his left toe, elegantly drawing half a circle on the ground with his right foot, and slightly turned his body, effortlessly dodging Big Bull’s seemingly inevitable punch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simultaneously, he delivered a powerful kick to Big Bull’s lower leg, causing him to stumble, nearly falling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guan Min, furious, shouted, \"Big Bull, get him!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His lifebound corpse Big Bull’s body suddenly flashed with a faint white light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then it accelerated, punching at Lou Er fiercely, like an endless, rushing river.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet Lou Er continually retreated, avoiding a direct confrontation, seeming to lack any means to counter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he was about to be backed into the circle drawn by a black charcoal stick,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lou Er stomped his right foot fiercely onto the ground, leaving a deep pit there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Using the enormous inertia and impact, he fiercely collided into Big Bull’s embrace!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Big Bull’s physical strength was astonishing, not being completely knocked down by this force, only slightly tilting back, temporarily struggling to maintain balance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Lou Er had already nimbly leaned in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His right hand smoothly gripped Big Bull’s shoulder, his hip sank, and his waist twisted fiercely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a momentary twisting force, Big Bull’s feet left the ground, drawing a half-circle in the air, and then violently made intimate contact with the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Bang!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ground was slammed into a human-shaped pit, dust flying everywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This over-the-shoulder throw, typical of martial artists in the Mortal World, was now executed by Lou Er effortlessly, even smoother than that of most Martial Artists.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Big Bull rose again from the ground, Lou Er leaped into the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He delivered several consecutive aerial kicks, each one striking Big Bull’s chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kicking it backward constantly, not giving it any chance to stabilize.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What on earth, how is Junior Brother Lou’s lifebound corpse so agile, capable of such complex maneuvers?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn, compared to his lifebound corpse, mine seems like a complete idiot.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The many disciples watching were stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One must know that lifebound corpses are not human, with relatively stiff limbs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All actions rely on their owner’s guidance, usually only able to perform simple, basic actions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention, the over-the-shoulder throws and aerial kicks just executed by Lou Er, even ordinary people would have to practice for a long time, and might not succeed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shock they were experiencing now was a hundred times greater than when Lou Yi, in his past life, watched Yushu Technology’s robots perform a yangko dance on the Spring Festival Gala!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn it, don’t just stand there being dumb, dodge quickly!\" Guan Min cursed in rage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simultaneously, he desperately communicated with his lifebound corpse in his heart, trying to control some of his actions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He still had confidence, refusing to believe that Lou Yi’s lifebound corpse had no weaknesses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as he could find a moment to catch his breath, he would try to overcome Lou Er with raw strength, giving no further chances!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under Guan Min’s hopeful gaze, Lou Er indeed paused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before he could act, he saw Lou Er, as if an unfathomable martial master, executing a series of chain fists right on the spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pressing, pushing, vibrating, and throwing, all in one continuous motion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All bones and muscles working in harmony as if forming a coherent whole.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, a hook punch was viciously swung toward Big Bull’s neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Snap!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crisp crack of fireworks rang out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Big Bull’s body, following a parabolic trajectory, flew backward, landing heavily outside the circle!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The result of the corpse duel, Lou Er won!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Extreme Fist of the Extreme Fist Sect, and the whistle of firecrackers symbolizing mastery of the fist technique, unexpectedly appeared on Lou Er’s undead form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd was in turmoil, unable to calm their minds for a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is that a corpse? How can it be more agile than a Martial Artist, with even more complex moves?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To be able to control a corpse to such an extent, turning decay into magic, to what level has Junior Brother Lou’s corpse control technique reached?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Amazing, Junior Brother Lou truly is formidable, I misjudged today!\" Guan Min reluctantly took out a gray and threadbare cloth bag, tied with a string from his bosom, and handed it over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you, Senior Brother.\" Lou Yi smilingly accepted the corpse storage bag.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lou Er’s performance was not beyond this master’s expectations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his perfection-level corpse control technique, it’s doubtful if there would be a second person in the entire Corpse-Driving Sect who could achieve such a level; training a corpse to become a high-level Martial Artist seemed bizarre?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furthermore, one with incredibly strong defense and no significant weak points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lou Er’s current comprehensive strength, according to Lou Yi’s estimation, was no less than a veteran Martial Artist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he could approach Qi Cultivation stage cultivators, they would be made to wonder why the flowers are so red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the corpse duel ended, Guan Min left in anger, while Rong Xuejian approached with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ve known Brother Lou for three years, yet I find I’ve never truly seen through you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How come you have time today, Ah Jian?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two walked and talked as they headed towards Lou Yi’s cave dwelling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If I say it’s been too long since we last met, and I miss you, would Brother Lou believe it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just fart it out.\" Lou Yi, being very familiar with Rong Xuejian, spoke candidly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...,\" Rong Xuejian awkwardly rubbed his nose and continued, \"There’s a mission, entrusted by someone, wanting to invite Brother Lou to join.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even the lowest threshold mission seems to restrict to Qi Cultivation Third Level, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s only a principle to restrict to Qi Cultivation Third Level, but if there are special situations, Qi Cultivation Second Level is not out of the question either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, knowing Brother Lou’s true abilities, it’s certainly not as simple as Qi Cultivation Second Level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like today, where a spirit corpse could defeat an iron corpse tempered by thunder and fire.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What kind of mission is it?\" Lou Yi asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cultivation techniques, elixirs, and all kinds of talent-requiring heavenly materials and earthly treasures, need contributions to exchange.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He would have to take on missions to earn contributions sooner or later, so getting used to it early was a good thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, depending on the difficulty of the mission, he wouldn’t take on anything too dangerous right now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>",1657,"2026-05-30T02:45:59.888Z","2026-06-01T04:30:04.667Z",1,"novelbin.me","16eed38276ae1634aa64ca887452986fb92405ba2b36cf412a6e047f0c26750a","becoming-a-saint-by-touching-corpses-chapter-313","becoming-a-saint-by-touching-corpses-chapter-311",784,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fbecoming-a-saint-by-touching-corpses-cover.jpg",{"terms":25},[]]
