The villain is right beside me

Jiang Qi is a disciple of the Sanqing Dao of Qingniuzhou. The sect usually gives the disciples a communication tool, a compass. This tool has a passive effect. Once it detects that two fellow disciples are at a certain distance, the direction will be revealed.

As soon as Jiang Qi came in, he was hunted down by monks from other sects, but fortunately he met a fellow brother from the same sect, but even more unfortunate was that his fellow brother also joined the team chasing him, because the two of them had some personal grudge against each other.

In the air battlefield, even former fellow disciples will become untrustworthy. The friendship between fellow disciples and brothers and relatives are all nonsense in the face of treasures and opportunities!

Relying on the strong wind in front of him, he desperately used up the protective jade talisman, escaped the pursuit, and hid himself.

"If I had known it was so dangerous in there, I shouldn't have come here." Jiang Qi complained extremely, but when he thought that if he could return safely, he would be able to form a Taoist couple with his junior sister, it was worth it.

"Hehe, we can still find ancient elixirs. Now is not the time to take the medicine. Let's find a safe place quickly." Jiang Qi was about to take action, when suddenly, he saw a figure in front of him and quickly took protection.

The figure appeared in front of him in the blink of an eye. Jiang Qi was startled. He then saw clearly that the person in front of him was an old man with tattered clothes and white hair.

"you······"

Jiang Qi was about to say something when the old man suddenly yelled at him and blasted him away.

Jiang Qi felt dizzy for a moment, but soon stood up straight. Looking again, he saw the old man teleporting to the crack in the void, and then he tore the crack open with one hand and jumped in.

"Damn it! It's a ghost!" Jiang Qi was so scared that he teleported across the void.

When he looked down, oh my god! Where is the elixir?

"Grass!"

On the other side of the airspace battlefield, Si Minghai was avoiding the pursuit of four cultivators in the building platform realm. He found a skeleton in a cave, and there was a storage bag next to the skeleton. Although he got a treasure, he was also targeted.

"Die!" A hint of cruelty flashed in the corner of Si Minghai's mouth. In his hand was a flying sword, shining brightly, which slashed over. The sword light condensed into a line, and the sharp murderous aura went straight to the opponent's head!

A head was chopped off.

Instead of paying any attention to the dead body, the others all rushed forward, casting spells with an intimidating momentum.

Si Minghai uttered a spell, and the flying sword he controlled flew back again, emitting many sword lights, which were like spider silk, interweaving into a dense sword web.

The sword net spread out, covering the sky and the earth, and three more heads were killed, with blood spurting out.

“Killing people for treasures, the strong preying on the weak, there is no right or wrong in the world of immortal cultivation.” Si Minghai cleaned up the corpses and took away their storage bags.

If fighting like this continues to happen anywhere, I wonder how many people will be alive in ten years.

Si Minghai suddenly discovered something and quickly hid himself. After a while, a group of people passed over his head.

Si Minghai looked up and saw that there were ten people on the other side. They were all wearing the same black and white robes, so they should be from the same sect.

"Hmm!" Si Minghai found an acquaintance and was extremely surprised: "How is it possible! Why is she there? Is there someone she knows among these people?"

Under the leadership of Chen Kan, he also contacted his fellow disciples, and the two of them moved forward together.

In front of an ancient cave, Chen Kan discovered his fellow disciple Yan Ruyan, and a suitor who he remembered was Junior Sister Yan.

"Senior Brother Chen, you are here too!" Yan Ruyan looked to be in her twenties, with a graceful figure. Although she was wrapped in a loose Taoist robe, she still couldn't hide her slim and graceful figure.

Just as Chen Kan was about to say something, Mu Qing asked first, "She is Yan Ruyan?"

Yan Ruyan looked at the young man in front of her. He was dressed in white and had a tall and slender figure. Although he had a handsome face, his eyes were full of coldness and ruthlessness. He was like a sharp ice sword.

"Who are you?" The man next to her was very unhappy. He also had the cultivation level of the fourth level of platform building.

Mu Qing sent a message to Chen Kan: "Hurry and get rid of him."

Chen Kan was helpless, but his life was in someone else's hands, so he had to take action!

Yan Ruyan and the other person were dumbfounded. Before they could react for a moment, Mu Qing had already seized the opportunity and directly captured the female cultivator.

"Chen Kan! How dare you betray the sect!"

"It is not my wish, Junior Sister Yan, Senior Brother Hu, you can still save your life if you hand over your original soul!"

The man surnamed Hu was furious and had already started fighting with Chen Kan. Yan Ruyan reacted quickly, but just as she threw out her flying sword, it was cut off by Mu Qing's sword, and the sharp blade was immediately against Yan Ruyan's throat.

"My fellow Taoist, we are strangers and I have never offended you. If Chen Kan did something wrong, you can go and settle the score with him." Yan Ruyan's face was as white as jade. There was no panic on her face at this moment, and she remained calm.

"You didn't do anything wrong, and neither did I. What was wrong was that you shouldn't have practiced cultivation and came to this world where the strong prey on the weak. Chen Kan wanted to kill me and take my treasure, and now that he has become my slave, I will also kill you and take my treasure." After Mu Qing said this, he slapped the woman unconscious.

"Asshole! What did you do to Junior Sister Yan!" The man surnamed Hu was furious, but Chen Kan kept pestering him.

Mu Qing summoned several flying swords, all of which were earth-grade magical weapons. They transformed into several black lines covering the sky, and endless sword light dismembered the man surnamed Hu.

Mu Qing laid Yan Ruyan on the ground and used the soul-searching secret technique taught by Lao Wang to connect to her sea of ​​consciousness and find her memories.

After some searching, Mu Qing actually found some magic techniques that also involved corpse refining, but she didn't practice any of them.

“To refine a corpse, you actually need corpse blood, carve spiritual patterns on the corpse, and irrigate the corpse blood…” Mu Qing drew blood on the spot, drained all the remaining blood from the corpse fragments, and put it in a bottle.

"There is a cave here. It's perfect. Let's practice in it." Mu Qing observed the formation outside the cave and began to solve it step by step.

This is an ancient formation with seven hubs, each of which is composed of hundreds of spiritual patterns.

"Master, what should we do with Yan Ruyan?" Chen Kan looked at Mu Qing with eyes full of awe. It seemed that he truly submitted to him in his heart.

"I have other uses." Mu Qing took a long time to finally open the formation, and directly picked up Yan Ruyan and entered the cave.

The cave is filled with spiritual energy. Although it is not big, there is a pavilion where you can look up at the starry sky.

"Refining corpses is different from refining puppets in that it is more cruel. But if successful, it is equivalent to having more guards." Mu Qing called Chen Kan in, asked him to collect the corpses, and returned his storage bag to him.

After Chen Kan went out, Mu Qing looked at Yan Ruyan beside him, sealed her spiritual power, and then cleaned up the spoils.

"I have all the necessary medicine pills and magic weapons. The air battlefield is too dangerous. I'll stay here first and improve my strength before going out." Mu Qing took out a pill, swallowed it, and began to practice.

After a while, Chen Kan brought in two corpses, both of which were fresh.

Corpse refining requires preserving the corpse qi using secret techniques and refining it with corpse blood. The lowest level are walking corpses and hairy corpses. Advanced corpse refining can combine puppetry and corpse refining to refine an iron corpse.

The Iron Corpse has infinite strength, and has three types: iron skin, copper skin, silver skin, and blood skin. An ordinary Iron Corpse can be comparable to the early stage of the Platform Building Realm. If it can be refined into a Blood Corpse, its power will be equivalent to the Quasi-Sea Realm.

The real difficulty in corpse refining is actually carving spiritual patterns. The more advanced the corpse, the more complex the spiritual patterns required. Only in this way can the corpse be made to unleash its power.

Mu Qing’s focus is not on refining corpses, but on observing the immortal roots of the human body through the means of refining corpses.

But it was Mu Qing's first time to refine a corpse, and he learned it by himself. However, he made a mistake in the first step of refining the corpse. With a bang, the stench of the corpse spread out, and the whole room was filled with the stink.

"Oh my god!" Mu Qing quickly burned the body, but the stench was still there.

At this moment, the unconscious Yan Ruyan's nose twitched, and she opened her eyes. Her face instantly turned bitter. She realized that she was tied up with the spirit-binding rope. Without thinking too much, she said, "I have Huaqing Pills! Crush it!"

Mu Qing took out a pink and white pill from her storage bag and crushed it. A fresh fragrance blew away the stench like the wind, and the air in the entire room was purified.

Yan Ruyan looked at Mu Qing and said calmly, "You are refining corpses. I can teach you."

"Oh, you are willing to teach me, do you want me to go easy on you?" Mu Qing was quite impressed that he could negotiate with me so calmly even in such a disadvantageous situation.

Yan Ruyan said calmly: "No, I hope you can ensure that I will not be hurt."

Mu Qing said: "Hand over your original soul, and I will agree."

Yan Ruyan was also decisive. A wisp of soul floated on her forehead, and her breath suddenly wilted. The original soul cannot be snatched by others, and can only be handed over willingly by the other party, because in this way, the other party's cultivation may even be damaged.

Mu Qing swallowed the original soul, untied her ropes, and asked her: "How to preserve the corpse qi?"

Yan Ruyan, on the other hand, was experienced and was really instructing him: "After a person dies, the vitality in the body will turn into dead energy. If the dead energy accumulates for a long time, it will turn into corpse energy. If you want to preserve the corpse energy, you must condense the dead energy and refine it into a dead energy pill..."

Mu Qing followed her method to refine the corpse, and all the dead energy in the body condensed in the sea of ​​consciousness, turning into an irregular oval-shaped dead energy pill. Why did the dead energy gather in the sea of ​​consciousness? It is said that the criterion for judging a person's death is that the brain stops working, and after the consciousness gradually dissipates, the sea of ​​consciousness still exists, but now the sea of ​​consciousness has become a "dead sea".

Dantian is the place where spiritual energy gathers, and it is also the place where the human body's vital energy is most active. After a person dies, vital energy will turn into dead energy, but dead energy will not stay in Dantian, but will be deposited in every part of the body. Dantian is yang, and sea of ​​consciousness is yin; vital energy belongs to yang, and dead energy belongs to yin. When yang rises, yin falls.

Finally, Mu Qing created the first walking corpse.

There are patterns engraved on the walking corpses. If Mu Qing wants to control the walking corpses, he only needs to connect his spiritual sense with the corpses' sea of ​​consciousness. However, if he wants to control multiple corpses for a long time, various Yin corpse auras will be accumulated on himself.

There is another way to control a refined corpse, which is to refine it into an incarnation. Each refined corpse can be said to exist independently, but can only be controlled by the main body.

Mu Qing wanted to refine an iron corpse, but the iron corpse required metal materials, which he did not have.

"This master was a cultivator in the early stage of building a platform. Although most of the spiritual power will be lost during the refining process, a walking corpse is equivalent to the perfection of the awakening state." Yan Ruyan said, and then she looked surprised: "What are you doing!"

Mu Qing directly dug a big hole in the zombie's dantian!
