Chapter 543: Corpse Carrying Skill
Chapter 543: Corpse Carrying Skill
The people outside were taking action, and Tian Lin, who had entered the corpse pit, was not idle either.
The thick corpse gas filled the entire space below the corpse well, blocking his spiritual sense from exploring.
But this did not pose any problem for Tian Lin. He circulated his true energy and activated the formation disk in his hand.
In just a moment, the originally dead corpse energy all rushed towards the formation plate in Tian Lin's hand.
The array disk has the effect of attracting corpse qi, but it does not have the ability to store corpse qi. Fortunately, Tian Lin can absorb corpse qi. When the array disk attracts corpse qi, he absorbs all the rich corpse qi into his body.
A large amount of corpse qi turned into spiritual energy and was absorbed by Tian Lin's dantian.
He tried his best to use his magical powers to transform the spiritual energy into true energy - but unfortunately he was not able to convert the spiritual energy into true energy fast enough, which somewhat delayed the speed of absorbing the corpse energy.
Even so, the corpse qi that had accumulated in the corpse well for who knows how many years was quickly absorbed by him.
Without the obstruction of corpse gas below the corpse well, Tian Lin's consciousness was no longer affected.
What came into view were four black coffins.
Tian Lin walked forward and simply surrounded the four black coffins with a few battle flags.
There are 108 flags in this formation, which are actually used for "enclosing land".
But nowadays, 'enclosing land' is obviously not possible, so it might as well be used to guard against sudden resurrection.
Even if a dozen flags cannot form a complete formation, ordinary drought demons are enough to deal with them.
After raising the flag, Tian Lin opened the first black coffin.
He had been prepared to be attacked by a large amount of corpse gas, but after opening the black coffin, Tian Lin was stunned by the corpse gas coming out of the black coffin.
It’s not that there is less corpse qi, but that the corpse qi is obviously much less than imagined.
Tian Lin didn't even need to use the corpse gathering formation to control the corpse energy into his own body.
Soon, a mummy emerged from the black coffin. The mummy had a dark green face and fangs in its mouth.
But Tian Lin could tell at a glance that the mummy had not been dead for very long.
"A disciple of the Xiangxi Sect?"
Looking at the clothes on the mummy, Tian Lin was stunned at first, and then his mind moved.
As a disciple of the Daoist sect, although he had studied funeral science, after becoming a true disciple, he rarely studied funeral science.
Tian Lin had previously practiced the magical power "Sealing Earth Art", but although Sealing Earth Art could bury and suppress mummies, it was impossible for him to suppress Hanba with his current cultivation.
On the contrary, the "Corpse Carrying Skill" has the nature of making the most of a small effort, and it is a skill practiced by corpse drivers.
Tian Lin also had some knowledge of the corpse-carrying skill. He had learned some from Old Man Ran when he was at the mass grave.
Tian Lin acted on his thought and pulled the Xiangxi Sect disciple in the black coffin upwards.
As soon as his hands touched the Xiangxi Sect disciple, a large amount of corpse qi flowed into Tian Lin's body along the Xiangxi Sect disciple's body.
As Tian Lin carried the Xiangxi Sect disciple on his back, the Xiangxi Sect disciple finally opened his eyes suddenly.
It is obvious that this disciple of Xiangxi Sect has faked his death.
However, this Xiangxi Sect disciple is only a walking zombie so far, and his killing power is not that terrifying.
What's more, Tian Lin had already arranged the formation in advance, so he was not afraid of him rebelling.
"Although the Corpse Carrying Skill is not a great magical power, it is a skill that all disciples of the Xiangxi Sect must learn, so I think it has its merits. However, it is easy to get started with this magical power, but it is extremely difficult to master it.
The difficulty lies not in the requirement of comprehension and talent, but in the ability to withstand corpse qi. Although I am not a disciple of Xiangxi Sect, my ability to withstand corpse qi is stronger than that of Xiangxi Sect disciples. "
At this time, the mummy on Tian Lin's back struggled hard, but his hands were broken by Tian Lin, and his legs were locked at the waist on Tian Lin's back.
A large amount of corpse Qi flowed into Tian Lin's body from the dried corpses, but these corpses were nothing more than transformed into spiritual Qi and flowed into Tian Lin's body. What's more, as the number of corpses in Tian Lin's body increased and the strength of the Xiangxi Sect disciples weakened on his back, his understanding of the corpse-carrying skill gradually strengthened.
The reason why Corpse Carrying Skill is a must-learn skill for disciples of Xiangxi Sect, but is not encouraged by disciples of Daodao Sect to practice, is because Corpse Carrying Skill uses one's life in exchange for the improvement and understanding of the skill.
The disciples of Xiangxi Sect themselves also need corpse qi to practice, so that’s all.
But for the disciples of the Taoist Sect, the more corpse qi invades their bodies, the more it will hinder their practice.
Therefore, although the Corpse Carrying Skill is famous, many people are afraid of its disadvantages and therefore do not practice it.
Before this, Tian Lin had never thought of becoming a corpse driver. Besides, the corpse-carrying skill was not a five-element skill and would not help his cultivation.
Therefore, he had never thought about practicing this technique until now——
About a quarter of an hour later, the corpse on Tian Lin's back stopped struggling.
And there was no longer any corpse qi that could be squeezed out of the corpse on his back.
After making sure that the body on his back was completely dead, Tian Lin let go of the corpse's hands and feet and threw it to the ground.
The zombies, which originally had green faces and fangs, were now soft as a puddle of mud, worse than ordinary corpses.
However, Tian Lin knew clearly that this was a place where corpses were kept, and it was also a supernatural place.
If this muddy corpse is not dealt with, it will probably evolve into a zombie again in no time.
If the Xiangxi Sect had such a place to keep corpses, they would naturally be willing to leave the muddy corpse here, but Tian Lin did not have such an idea.
He waved his hand, and the inner energy fell on the corpse, directly turning it into mud.
He still felt that it was not enough, and worried that the evil would resurface, so he directly shot out a fireball, completely turning the mud into powder.
Only then did Tian Lin walk towards the second black coffin.
Just as she reached out to touch the second black coffin, the sound of a night watchman was heard above the corpse well.
"Sure enough, according to Zhou Ting's plan, even with the corpse gathering formation, it is impossible to absorb all the corpse qi quickly."
According to the plan, Tian Lin should leave here now.
But before this, Tian Lin observed that the main source of danger at night came from those soldiers.
But today the old village chief must have taken Zhou Ting and others to the pond again, and those soldiers must be fighting with the new drought demon again.
Therefore, the danger at this time of night seems to be not as great as before.
More importantly, he had removed the door panels and sealed the wellhead.
In theory, the door plate on the wellhead is like a door to the underground corpse-keeping place. If the soldiers and evil spirits want to come in, they can only do so with the permission of the door god.
Although he thought so in his mind, Tian Lin did not dare to be sure that his guess was correct.
However, in order to remove all the mummies, time must be utilized both day and night.
Necessary risks are taken not only for the sake of others, but also for one's own survival.
Tian Lin no longer hesitated and decisively opened the second black coffin.
In the black coffin, a dried corpse wearing the clothes of the Wendao Sect appeared.
"So, the so-called official status can be used to 'revive' the evil spirits in the village. And those white bodies are killed and placed directly in the corpse well to be raised?"
The corpse in the coffin was not young and looked like it had just become a zombie not long ago.
On the waist of her dress, there was a badge that said she was an outer disciple of the Wendao Sect. In fact, Tian Lin recognized her identity without even looking at the badge.
