Chapter 120 He is still alive
Yuzhou, Buried Valley of the Gods.

The dark earth is filled with a dead atmosphere, and the sky is covered with a layer of low-hanging dark clouds all year round. Even the scorching sun in summer rarely sets, and the faint green will-o'-the-wisp fire has become the main source of light here.

This is a natural dead zone, the best place for the growth of netherworld spiritual plants.

The Dark God Sect rose to prominence by relying on this special treasure land!

The huge God Burial Valley was in the shape of an inverted pyramid. On the cliffs of the mountain stood bloody old coffins and "street lamps" made from the bones of giant beasts. The buildings of the Hades Sect were hidden inside the mountain walls or deep in the valley.

However, the sudden appearance of soul shadows on the black earth caused considerable panic.

“Soul cultivators, soul cultivators have actually invaded the God Burial Valley!!”

"team leader!"

"Quick, give the signal!"

It is currently the time of world war, and even the disciples who stayed behind in the sect are very nervous. When they see the floating souls, their first reaction is that the soul cultivators are calling!
Therefore, the patrol team did not even think twice and immediately sent out a signal using a warning weapon.

After sending out the signal, they felt something was wrong. A large number of forces from the sect were heading north, so the protective formation of the God Burial Valley was in a half-open state. How could a soul cultivator invade silently?

Although they felt something was wrong, they still didn't dare to approach those wandering souls.

Not only here, early warning signals were raised in the Burial God Valley one after another. People who didn't know the truth actually thought that it was a soul cultivator attacking. Even the protective formation was switched from half-open to fully open in the first moment, and dark divine patterns emerged in the void.

A tall figure broke through the air and the patrol captain immediately stepped forward to report.

"Elder, these soul cultivators..."

The early warning signals have been issued. Now we must insist that he is a soul cultivator, whether he is not.

"Shut up! If I were really a soul cultivator, I wouldn't give you the chance to yell!"

The elder did not continue to reprimand these patrolling disciples. In this special period, panic was understandable. The most important thing now was the origin of these soul shadows.

Such changes have never occurred in the God Burial Valley. The place is filled with a dead atmosphere. Apart from those special spiritual plants, even wild beasts will instinctively stay away from it.

Soul shadow?

It has never appeared since the Mingshen Sect was established here.

"It doesn't have a strong sense of self-awareness. It won't actively attack people who cultivate the [Death Realm] martial spirit, but it will attack ordinary disciples..."

"No, to be precise, we will not actively attack a target that exudes death energy. It has nothing to do with martial intent."

"The attack method is indeed very similar to some of the methods used by soul cultivators, but there are differences in essence. The power is not strong and can only affect fourth-grade warriors at most."

Those illusory soul shadows could not cause any waves in the hands of the Immortal Realm strong men. The elder asked the patrol team to cooperate and made many attempts.

As information from the entire Burial God Valley continued to be gathered, in less than a day, thousands of soul shadows appeared in the area. Some patrolling disciples even witnessed the entire process of the soul shadows appearing out of thin air.

This is beyond their understanding.

If it was because of the special environment of the Valley of the Burial of Gods, it would not have waited until now. If this had happened, there must have been something that they did not understand.

Is it because of the deepening integration of the three realms, or something else?
Will such a change bring threats to the God Burial Valley and the Underworld God Sect?
All of this is unknown, which causes great headaches for the higher-ups of the Dark God Sect who remain behind. They can only send more patrol personnel to collect these special soul shadows with sealing artifacts and conduct in-depth research.

……

At the deepest part of the underground of the Valley of the Buried Gods, an ancient corpse lay in a black coffin without a lid. A huge and complex array of divine patterns was engraved around the black coffin, and above it were suspended fist-sized gems emitting mist.

The death energy materialized into flowing smoke and continuously poured into the body in the coffin that was emitting the light of law. This process had lasted for more than half a year.

At this moment, Wu Songwen, who was at the edge of the God Pattern Formation, groaned in pain, and his eyes suddenly exploded, leaving two horrible blood holes on his face. Even with the recovery ability of a warrior in the God Melting Realm, there was no sign of rebirth at the first time. But he didn't care about these at all.

"Haha, I succeeded, I succeeded!"

Wu Songwen tried every possible way to get a glimpse of the bones, muscles, and flesh of the ancient corpse, and then compare it with his own to improve his body-refining techniques.

After all, the height of the ancient corpse is there, and compared to the warriors who don’t know where the road ahead is, it is understandable to move closer to the ancient corpse.

The continuous infusion of death energy did not dilute the vitality within the ancient corpse in the slightest. Wu Songwen had not really thought about what he could do with this mysterious ancient corpse. He just wanted to "smuggle" under the cover of the death energy and the large formation outside.

During this period, several soul shadows actually emerged from the thick deathly aura. Although they were destroyed by the power of the ancient corpse's body in the first time, they still scared him.

However, after confirming that this was not a change caused by his research on the ancient corpse, Wu Songwen stopped asking about it. He focused all his energy on this powerful body, which could not leave any trace even if he used a top-grade magic weapon.

The result was exactly as Wu Songwen had expected, and the "smuggling" was successful. Although it was only for a moment, the feedback force from the ancient corpse caused his eyes to explode and his will to be shaken, but his gains in this moment were also huge.

It’s so beautiful, as brilliant as the stars!

At the same time, Xiao Wanghai, who was stationed at Fortress No. 10 of the Yanshan Defense Line to prevent a surprise attack from the Hell Soul Realm, showed a look of surprise on his face after receiving feedback from his second body.

Finally some progress!

"He is indeed alive!"

The heart of that body would beat slightly once every three to five days, and the blood in the body was flowing slowly. This was a body without a soul, but it was truly alive!
Calling it a "corpse" may not be so accurate.

Such a perfect body was like a road to heaven for him, and he never gave up the idea of ​​"occupying the magpie's nest".

Xiao Wanghai glanced at the "An Initial Explanation of Taoist Ghost Ways" on the table. This was the latest book written by Jiang Yi before he went to Yungu Cave. It can allow warriors below the Immortal Realm to transform into ghost cultivators when they lose their physical bodies but their souls are still together, and there is a high chance that they can continue to survive.

The so-called ghost cultivation is said to be a cultivation system similar to the soul cultivation in the Hell Soul Realm, but with essential differences.

The soul shadows that appeared in the Valley of the Buried Gods were somewhat similar to the "ghosts" mentioned in the book, and the characteristics of the Valley of the Buried Gods were indeed consistent with what was said in the book.

There wasn't any before, so he thought Jiang Yi was talking nonsense, but now...

Is it the Chongming Realm that is changing?
Xiao Wanghai did not delve into these matters. When he studied the inheritance written by Jiang Yi, he only focused on the soul part. He did not have much time left. Even Le Sheng, who was at the peak of the Three Yuan Realm, had died in battle, let alone him, a warrior in the middle stage of the Three Yuan Realm.

With the results of this "peek", he has already found a way to break through the current bottleneck.

But this is far from enough. Perhaps he can learn from Jiang Yi's method.

After such a long time, even if they were slow, they understood why Jiang Yi was so passionate about preaching.

Merits of heaven and earth!

His strength is far from enough to take over the ancient corpse's body. Even if he can successfully break through this time and enter the late stage of Sanyuan Realm, or even reach the peak of Sanyuan Realm, it will not be enough!

As for the road above Sanyuan, it is not that easy. He doesn't think he can live to that time, or he doesn't think Chongming Realm can last until that time.

As long as he can sort out a technique that makes it easier for the Immortal Realm to break through the bottleneck, it will have an immediate effect on the improvement of the combat power of the Chongming Realm, and he will definitely be able to obtain far more merits from heaven and earth than Jiang Yi.

The reason why he has been able to hold the mysterious ancient corpse is because of his ability. The ten great sects are all staring at him. How could Xiao Wanghai, who has figured it out, keep it to himself? He will share every research result with all the sects.

"By then..."

As long as he can possess that body, he will be invincible in the three realms!
