Chapter 116 Motivation
The moon is bright in the sky, and the yin energy is boiling in the yin land. It seems that something extraordinary is about to be unearthed.

Outside the Yin Gathering Area, there were about 10 to 20 people standing. The leader was a Taoist with white hair and black eyes. He looked particularly strange under the moonlight.

This person is Zhang Chu.

Today is the day when the zombies in Juyin Land are unearthed, so he came here early to wait.

As for the people behind him, except for the Taoist priest in black, the rest were some Taoist masters recruited by the man in black.

These masters are not necessarily skilled in martial arts, some may have high attainments in Taoism and superb alchemy skills.

Standing behind him were two tall men, protecting him.

"Master Dao,"

The man in black looked at the two guardian gods who were holding the Taoist master in between, "What happened to the two guardians?"

"them?"

Zhang Chu took a look at the two bronze-armored corpses whose skulls were exposed and whose faces were unrecognizable, and said calmly, "A few days ago, I was injured in a fight with someone!"

The man in black was silent.

He knew too well how terrifying the dozen or so guardians of his own Taoist master were. They were extremely powerful and invulnerable to swords and spears. That was them.

But, he was injured to such an extent during the battle with others. How powerful must the person who was fighting with the Taoist master be?
Also, after being injured to such an extent, let alone an ordinary person, even if he was in black, he would have died long ago.

However, these guardians stood silently beside Zhang Chu as if nothing had happened.

Even the man in black was so surprised, so were the Taoists he recruited: they were injured but not dead, and they were all extraordinary people.

Especially when I saw that the man in black was quite in awe of those who stood there in silence, I was even more confused.

The Taoist in black is a well-known master in the martial arts world. Now that he has taken the Dahuan Pill, he is even more difficult to rival.

Why are we so reverent towards these dozen or so “guardians”?
Although many Taoists had many doubts in their hearts, no one wanted to ask.

Faced with a Taoist master who is suspected to have the secret of immortality, they can only learn about it slowly.

The Taoist priest in black called them to the locust tree forest in the backyard of the charity cemetery late at night. There must be something going on. Maybe they will be able to get a glimpse of the mysterious Taoist priest tonight.

But what is there to see in front of the locust tree forest?

Just when everyone was full of doubts, they saw a scene that horrified them: pairs of black hairy arms broke out from the ground in the locust tree forest in front of them, neatly arranged like rows of leeks.

"Is there someone buried underground?"

As soon as the thought came to their minds, they saw dust flying, and figures suddenly emerged from the ground and stood in the locust tree forest.

Then in the bright moonlight, they could vaguely see: there were about a hundred people breaking out of the ground, with their arms level with the ground, standing there quietly, as if waiting for something.

At this moment, they saw a black bellyband-like thing flashing red light appear in the hand of their Taoist master. With a slight shake, several figures jumped towards the mysterious Taoist master.

It was not until they jumped out of the locust tree forest that they saw the full picture of the several figures: their clothes seemed to be corroded, tattered, and there were many old bloodstains.

When they walked in, they found that the figures were actually people. However, unlike ordinary people, they did not breathe, nor speak. Their faces were extremely ferocious, and at the corners of their mouths, they could see a pair of long teeth exposed.

Immediately afterwards, they saw an even more shocking scene: the extremely mysterious Taoist master actually placed his hand on the top of the head of one of the monsters.

An extremely evil aura emerged from above the monster's head, sank into the Taoist master's palm, and disappeared.

As the extremely evil aura disappeared, the monstrous figure turned into a pile of ashes in an instant and fell to the ground.

When they saw this scene, they were all a little frightened: this Taoist master was not like the gods who saved people from suffering in their impression, but more like the big devil in their impression.

Just one look at the man in black standing nearby revealed that he was no longer surprised by this scene.

Therefore, none of the Taoist priests present spoke a word and just watched silently.

As for Zhang Chu, he had long been immersed in the pleasure of rapidly increasing his magic power, and did not care at all about the Taoists' thoughts.

Letting them come here tonight is just to test their reaction.

If they can accept this, they can continue to survive in the charity cemetery. If they cannot accept it, there is no need to say what their fate will be.

At the very least, for now, what happens in the charity cemetery cannot be spread out.

Zhang Chu continuously extracted the corpse qi from the zombies, turning them into piles of ashes, which became nourishment for the growth of Zhang Chu's magic power.

To a certain extent, Zhang Chu is no different from a farmer.

The only difference is that others grow crops, while Zhang Chu grows zombies.

Zhang Chu had extracted the corpse qi of nearly a hundred zombies, and the Heavenly Corpse Art was also running frantically. The corpse qi origin was quickly converted into his mana and injected into the mana seeds.

Originally, a flower bud had already appeared on the stem of the mana seed, and under the watering of mana, the flower bud bloomed.

It seemed that the blooming of the flower bud was a signal. Soon, flower buds appeared on three more stems and bloomed.

It was not until this time that Zhang Chu had completely digested the essence of the corpse qi that he had absorbed and refined this time.

There were nearly a hundred black zombies, plus the corpse qi absorbed from the mass grave, which resulted in flowers blooming on four of the stems.

And above the mana seed, there are eight stems, waiting to be watered!
After sensing this scene, Zhang Chu knew in his heart that he was not far from reaching the great perfection of the Condensation Dharma Realm and it was time to consider building the foundation.

The remaining eight stems would require the corpse qi of at most two or three hundred black zombies to make them bloom.

Just two or three hundred black zombies can be achieved by harvesting them twice in the Yin Ju Di.

Even if we calculate it by time, it is only less than half a year.

It has only been two or three years since he first crossed over to the present, and he has been able to cultivate to the perfection of the Condensation Realm. Not to mention being extremely gifted, he is also extremely rare in the world.

This is especially true as we approach the Dharma Ending Age.

If the cultivators in the zombie world knew that Zhang Chu's cultivation had improved so quickly, they would not be happy, but would sigh: Zhang Chu was born at the wrong time.

The Dharma Ending Age is approaching and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth will disappear. What good will it do even if one is extremely talented?
A hundred years later, won’t it still be a handful of earth?
Family members know their own business. Even if Zhang Chu knew what they were thinking, he wouldn't care.

With the Yue Shi Mirror in his hand, Zhang Chu may be able to open up a more powerful world.

Standing in front of the Yin Gathering Land, he silently stabilized his own skyrocketing magic power, and even took out the Corpse King Banner and began to purify it with the magic power that had just skyrocketed.

A sudden surge in magic power will inevitably lead to an unstable foundation. Constantly refining the Corpse King Banner with magic power can not only enhance the Corpse King Banner's foundation, but also absorb the impetuousness in his magic power and consolidate his own foundation.

They stood like this until dawn. As for the Taoists standing behind Zhang Chu, they did not leave and silently accompanied Zhang Chu all night.

"You guys go back and rest first!"

Zhang Chu's locked eyes opened directly, and a black light shot out from his eyes. This was because his magic power had surged and he could not completely control it.

"Yes, Taoist Master!"

The man in black immediately agreed and planned to leave with the old Taoist priests.

"Wait until noon, and come to my quiet room."

Zhang Chu's voice rang out again, "I have something to arrange!"

"Yes, Master!" Seeing that Zhang Chu was fine, they retreated silently.

Watching the Taoists leave, Zhang Chu also put the fourteen refined corpses into the Corpse King Banner.

Last night, zombies emerged from the ground, and he distributed fourteen refined zombies around, both to suppress nearly a hundred black zombies and to protect himself.

When refining the origin of corpse qi, even if Zhang Chu was not at his most vulnerable, he was still in extreme danger.

With fourteen refined corpses guarding him, he could calmly end his attack and protect himself even if a large army came to besiege him.

Zhang Chu did not stay in front of the Yin Gathering Place for long, but instead walked into the morgue.

The crops have been harvested, and it is time to plant the next crop. Otherwise, how can one achieve perfection in the Dharma Condensation Realm within half a year?

More than 200 well-preserved corpses were taken out by Zhang Chu. Afterwards, he reversed his magic power, transformed it into corpse gas, injected it into the corpses, and buried them in the prepared corpse pits.

"It seems that these things have to be left to Hei Yi and the others!"

More than 200 corpses were placed in the corpse pit. It took Zhang Chu a whole morning to sort them out. "Otherwise, why would I recruit my men?"

“I just don’t know if they can do it well!”

After all, the men in black have no magical powers. Even with the suppression of talismans, the corpses that have been injected with corpse qi will still carry corpse poison.

If he is not careful, Hei Yi may be infected with corpse poison and turn into a zombie.

Now, he is still very comfortable using the black clothes. If he were to turn into a zombie, he would still be very sad.

"It is necessary to draw a batch of exorcism talismans!"

If you want Hei Yi and the others to bury the corpse, you have to prepare exorcism talismans for them. When they are infected with the corpse poison, they will wake up and give Zhang Chu time to save them.

After muttering something silently, Zhang Chu walked towards the quiet room.

At this moment, the man in black and the few Taoist priests who were recruiting were already standing at the door of the quiet room waiting.

"Black,"

An old Taoist priest looked at the black clothes in front of him and couldn't help himself. Before, the Taoist master was there, so he couldn't ask. But now he could ask, "What were those things last night?"

"do not know!"

The man in black knew nothing about anything.

No matter how the Taoists asked, they didn't know.

In fact, he really didn't know, but he had some guesses in his mind.

Those figures that broke out of the ground were most likely made by their own Taoist master using human corpses.

In fact, those fourteen guardians were the top masters in the martial arts world who died in the charity cemetery before.

Speculations are just speculations, but there is no way the man in black could say it out loud.

He still has to rely on Zhang Chu to obtain the path to immortality!
Although I have the skills now, what’s the use if I can’t practice them?

Before, he also suspected that the skills Zhang Chu gave him were fake, but weren’t there several old Taoist priests around him?

He produced a short segment and asked them to explain it.

Unexpectedly, I was pestered by those old Taoist priests and they insisted on reading the whole article.

Just this reaction made him understand that what Zhang Chu gave him was a real martial art, a martial art for immortality.

Thinking of this, it was even more impossible for him to take out the entire article. He simply used the Taoist's authority to prohibit private transmission.

Therefore, even though those Taoists were so anxious that they scratched their heads, they could not say much.

This is also the reason why no one showed any intention of leaving after seeing that scene last night.

People become more afraid of death as they get older, especially Taoists who have pursued immortality all their lives. Now that they see the road to immortality right before them, how could they possibly give up?
"Greetings to the Taoist Master,"

While a few people were waiting here silently, they saw Zhang Chu coming over and immediately stepped forward to greet him.

"Come in, everyone!"

Zhang Chu walked forward, pushed open the door of the quiet room, and walked in. The others followed him in.

"Everyone sit down,"

Zhang Chu, who was sitting in the main seat, looked at the Taoists who were still standing there, waved his hand, and motioned them to sit down.

"I am calling you all together today,"

Seeing all the Taoists sitting down, Zhang Chu spoke up, "We are here to enhance our skills!"

The Taoist priests all looked at Zhang Chu in confusion.

"Improving my skills is not for my own sake,"

Zhang Chu started talking about the martial arts that he had talked about with Hei Yi before, but this time he added, "It's for you guys!"

"Most of you are already old. Only after you enter the Xiantian realm can you get a glimpse of the way to immortality!"

"To enter the Xiantian realm, you need to have at least enough skills!"

"As long as you accumulate enough skills, the possibility of entering the innate realm will be much greater!"

After they digested Zhang Chu's words, Zhang Chu also threw out a bait, "If you can find a formula to enhance your power and refine it, the method of immortality may not be impossible to show you first!"

"Like a black suit,"

As he said that, Zhang Chu took Hei Yi as an example, "He just completed some things for me, so I taught him the longevity technique in advance!"

The Taoists immediately turned their eyes to the man in black. After receiving his affirmative answer, they finally understood what the martial arts method was that the man in black had given them.

No wonder Hei Yi didn’t let them read the whole article, it turns out to be the path to immortality!
"Master Dao,"

Under the temptation of the road to immortality, the Taoists stood up and said, "Don't worry, we will do our best!"

"Everyone,"

After hearing this, Zhang Chu shook his head, but he did not forget the hard work of the man in black. "What to do about this matter, of course the man in black will tell you!"

"Yes, Taoist Master!"

After hearing this, the man in black also looked at Zhang Chu with gratitude.

"Go down!"

Zhang Chu waved his hand and closed his eyes to practice.

The Taoists followed the man in black out. They still needed to ask the man in black about the specific matters!
