"The five corpse demons haven't been marked with spiritual sense yet. We'll need to control them after we have removed the seal later or else we might have a difficult tif we do it after. Vice Sect Leaders, will each of you mark one corpse demon and be able to control it?" Buck asked, a worried tone was evident in his voice.
It was only right that he should be worried, because it would require a cultivator with a high spiritual sense and proficient skills to be able to mark their spiritual sense on a corpse demon. It wasn't a job for the weak.
Failure in marking a corpse demon was guaranteed if the cultivator had a weak spiritual sense, or they were not skilled enough in controlling their power. Marking and controlling a corpse demon was a very nitty-gritty process and could not be meddled with.
Among the three of them, Buck was the strongest cultivator. He was close to the Imperial Realm, and his spiritual sense power was also the strongest.
However, the two newly appointed Vice Sect Leaders were relatively weak compared to him. They also lacked experience and control. It was like he was an adult surrounded by little kids.
One of them was at the medium stage of Sky Realm, and the other had only reached the premium stage of Sky Realm not long ago.
What was even worse, their cultivation in spiritual sense was also pretty weak.
"Mr. Buck, don't you worry. You can definitely count on me. | have been cultivating the Soul-transforming Skill day and night for the past few months.
My spiritual sense has already improved leaps and bounds. I'm sure | can skillfully control a corpse demon," the tall thin man answered confidently.
"Rest assured Mr. Buck, | won't let you down.
| can handle a corpse demon easily!" added the elder Vice Sect Leader with grey hair.
"Very well, | trust your word. I'll deal with the remaining three corpse demons. With the addition of these five corpse demons, our Ghost Sect's power will definitely increase tenfold!" Buck exclaimed excitedly. He then waved his hand, and a powerful vital energy force gushed out forcing the two heavy stone doors leading to the basement to open with a loud bang. Just as the doors opened, a dark and cold corpse miasma poured out, which was so strong that it could easily suffocate people who were not strong enough to resist it.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBut because of the strong spiritual energy of the three men, they easily deflected the strong miasma as if it was like ordinary air.
They proceeded forward and entered the basement. After a few minutes, the entrance where the three men initially stood on becdeadly silent and calm. The three were apparently already deep into the basement, and no sound cout.
Not long after the three people left, a young man suddenly appeared at the front entrance towards the basement. The man was none other than Austin.
Austin had recently mastered the elementary bodily movement skill of disguise, so he was able to effortlessly sneak into the headquarters of the Ghost Sect without anyone noticing his movements.
Before he arrived at the entrance, he released his spiritual sense to find out what was happening inside, and was able to trace the steps of the three people. He followed them all the way inside, until he cupon the entrance to the basement.
Austin stood there, and contemplated on his next actions for a few seconds. Then he decided to follow suit, and entered the basement directly.
Once he was inside, Austin heard sounds of the wind which cfrom multiple directions. It sounded like thousands of people crying and suffering which was ear-piercing and loud. It was a horrible sound which would make anyone cringe in fear.
Moreover, there was this strong corpse miasma, which carried a stinking smell of rotten fish and corpse. It flowed all over the basement like a sea of clouds, and singe waft would certainly make anyone feel nauseous which would force them to vomit.
On the walls of the basement were piles of unknown substances which glowed like fluorescent light. The light was green and looked gruesome, which made the entire room look like a piece of hell.
Austin started walking for about a few meters inside the room. At first, he walked through a rugged and steep path, which was about 100 meters deep which led to a dark room. There were lots of cubicles as you went along the path. It was gloomy and stifling. He vaguely saw numerous corpses which motionlessly stood in the cubicles, creating a creepy scene.
The corpses were composed of men who were corpse soldiers or corpse generals.
Austin released his spiritual sense in order to inspect them. He found out that all the corpse in the room were sealed in a deep sleep. The dense corpse miasma in the air provided a suitable environment in order to preserve them, providing nourishment to the corpses.
Austin suddenly realized that this place was the corpse storage basement of the Ghost Sect.
He had already walked for about a kilometer, and had already passed by hundreds of cubicles. However, the road seemed longer and to no end. It was like he was walking in a never ending path.
After aimlessly walking in the dark for about 1.5 kilometers, he finally arrived at the end of the basement.
Austin stopped and released his spiritual sense in order to locate the three person's whereabouts. That was when he found out that the men stopped walking only a few meters away from his current position.
At the end of the basement was a wide and broad platform.
He noticed a dark pond about 20 meters wide in the middle of the platform. It was filled to the brim with a dark and sticky substance which looked like a black colored paste. An extremely thick cloud of corpse miasma hovered above the substance. After carefully observing it, Austin realized that the boiling pond was producing the corpse miasma.
Beside the pond, there laid five coffins made from rare Phoebe sheareri. All of them were shrouded with an intensely thick cloud of corpse miasma.
Austin hid not far from the three men, giving him the perfect spot to feel everything that was happening through his spiritual sense without getting caught.
The three people from the Ghost Sect silently stood close to the coffins.
They were both excited and nervous as they gazed at the coffins, as if they were staring at a mound of rare treasure.
"We can't remove the seal from the corpse demon yet. The best tto perform the unsealing is during midnight.
When midnight strikes, the feminine energy would have reached its highest peak then. It's during that twhen the corpse demon would have attained their strongest fighting capacity, and this is when they are most powerful. It's just like waiting for a fruit to ripen. It tastes best when it is fully mature.
So, right now, we just wait here until midnight. Because something this important is worth waiting for," Buck carefully explained to his companions.
They both nodded in understanding. All three of them went ahead and sat down on the ground crossed legged. They all took a deep breath and calmly closed their eyes in order to meditate.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe cultivation methods of the Ghost Sect were both evil and gruesome. They needed to absorb enough corpse miasma for their cultivation method, and they were in the perfect environment at that moment. It was too good of an opportunity to pass up, so they started to cultivate quietly. It was like hitting two birds with one stone.
Austin heard every word that cout of Buck's mouth, so he decided to stay hidden until midnight just like the three men from the Ghost Sect and see what would happen then.
Austin was pretty sure that the five corpse demons must be kept in the coffins for a reason while waiting for midnight to arrive.
The coffins were sealed by skind of power. It seemed like a strong seal protected the coffins, and would require a lot of power in order to break them. And the Ghost Sect men would only unseal them by midnight.
Austin realized that waiting patiently was the only thing he could do at that moment.
If he had been an ordinary cultivator, he would be crazy and stupid to stay in the basement for that long, since the corpse miasma was so strong and fatal. He wouldn't definitely stand a chance against it if it were the case.
The corpse miasma was like a silent killer, which slowly poisoned the body. If an ordinary cultivator inhaled too much miasma, he might just die. Besides the poison, corpse miasma had a serious effect on one's brain. It could numb the senses, and damage the brain to the point of insanity.
Given the fact that the corpse miasma was so strong and overbearing, any cultivator who was weaker would lose their spiritual souls and would fall unconsciousness.
Ordinary cultivators wouldn't even dare to set foot in such a place. It was like they would be sentencing themselves to death if they even tried going inside.
However, Austin was not an ordinary cultivator. The Golden Sun Scripture that he cultivated could produce masculine light golden vital energy, which could conquer the corpse miasma. He also had another ace up his sleeve, the Scorching Evil Fire within his body. Just a small portion of it was enough to drive away the corpse miasma. It was like having an invisible shield around his body.
Therefore, the corpse miasma couldn't even get close to him.
Not only that, Austin also had the Thunder Elixir and the original thunder power in his body as well. These two were considered to be the most positive and strongest power in the world. The corpse miasma wouldn't even stand a chance.
Having these combined power, Austin felt safe and secured and was not afraid of the poisonous corpse miasma at all. On the contrary, the corpse miasma didn't even dare to approach him. It was as if the corpse miasma was actually afraid of his presence.
He sat in his hiding place and patiently waited for a few hours.
And then suddenly, the three men of the Ghost Sect opened their eyes abruptly.
"The thas come. It is finally midnight," Buck said slowly as he intently gazed at the five corpse coffins. The other two also looked at the coffins, breathing heavily as they did. Excitement was written all over their faces.
At the stime, Austin rose to his feet and stared at the three people from the Ghost Sect in front of him. He watched their every move without even batting an eyelid and released his spiritual sense. 'It's finally show time."
