The rosacea monk was a little scared when he saw Wang Daoyuan's unkind expression.
Wang Daoyuan took out the Tiger Sword, patted the wine jar again, and said, "After you finish speaking, this jar of wine belongs to you.
Play with me again, and I'll let you taste the taste of this tiger sword."
The rosacea monk was so frightened that he sweated. He no longer dared to play tricks. He swallowed and said: "The group of monks lost five or six companions and more than ten injured, so they retreated due south.
A year later, more than 30 people came here again.
This time, the group of people brought a third-level low-grade magic weapon, which was shaped a bit like a bell.
When the corpses came out, a peak-building monk rang the bell, and all the corpses collapsed to the ground.
Other monks took the opportunity to set fire and burned all the refined corpses.
After solving the problem of refining the corpse, the group began to dig underground to find the place where the refining corpse came out.
Later, it seemed that something was really dug up, and more than ten people went down.
The twenty or so people waiting outside waited for several days, but no one came up.
They sent people down to look for him, but they didn't come back.
A few people outside flew south, and not long after, the dozen or so people who stayed behind also left.
Since then, that group of people has never come back, and the people below have not been able to come up again."
Wang Daoyuan waved his hand, pushed the wine jar towards the rosacea monk, and said, "This jar of wine is yours."
The rosacea monk hugged the wine jar, thanked him repeatedly, and went to an empty table to drink.
Wang Daoyuan thought while eating. The entrance to the secret place where the real Wanshi master was seated was indeed more than 300 miles east of the Baojing Lake oasis.
The place where these Nether Sect monks encountered the second-level corpse refining should be near the entrance to the secret realm.
However, the refined corpses they encountered were definitely not the batch left behind by Master Wan Zhi.
The dignified Jindan Master wants to cultivate corpses. It is difficult to find the corpses of Jindan monks, so he has to use the corpses of Zifu monks.
Unless you encounter the corpse of a foundation-building monk with a special physique and great potential, you will only use corpses below the Zifu level.
However, special physiques are extremely rare. It is difficult to find one among ten thousand monks. It is impossible to have so many.
Moreover, if a monk with a special physique is refined into a corpse, his strength will be quite scary.
I'm afraid that many people will die when the Netherworld Sect monks encounter corpse refining for the first time.
It is not impossible for monsters or human monks to accidentally enter the secret realm, die there, and be corroded by the Yin Qi to become a natural refined corpse.
When the Nether Sect monks came for the second time, they had suppressed the corpse refining, but the corpse refining suddenly showed great power.
It can be seen that these refined corpses are not ownerless things, but are controlled by someone.
Back then, only Qi Yun and Chen Ji were exploring the secret realm. Qi Yun and his body after taking away his soul were all in his own spirit bead space.
Before he deliberately revealed that there was Yin Qi near the Baojing Lake Oasis, the only people who knew about the secret realm were himself and Chen Ji.
The only person who controls these corpses is Chen Ji.
As for the situation where the Nether Sect monks went underground and never came out again.
There are two possibilities. One is that Chen Ji set up a trap such as a formation at the entrance of the secret realm to trap and kill everyone.
He has explored the secret realm twice himself, and it is very easy to ambush at the entrance of the secret realm.
However, the people of Netherworld Sect are not fools. They will not swarm them all in. Even if there is a formation, they will not kill everyone.
The Netherworld Sect sent people to search for the secret realm, so how could they not send formation mages?
From Qi Yun's memory, we learned that Chen Ji did not major in formations.
Therefore, it is unlikely that Chen Ji would use formations to trap and kill the Nether Sect monks.
Another possibility is that there are at least three levels of zombie refining activities below.
Generally, the refined corpse will fall into a deep sleep after the owner dies.
As long as there is no external interference, they will continue to sleep, and the natural zombies will move according to their own habits.
If there were third-level natural corpses inside, Qi Yun and Chen Ji would have died in the secret realm long ago.
None of the Nether Sect monks who went underground could come out alive. They should have been killed only after they all entered the secret realm.
Therefore, even if there is a third-level corpse refining activity in the secret realm, it will definitely not be a natural corpse refining.
The third-level corpse-refining corpse cannot fly and is not as agile as the monks, but it can keep all the more than a dozen late-stage foundation-building monks behind, which shows that there is more than one third-level corpse-refining corpse in the secret realm.
Since there are more than one third-level corpse refiners, there are no activities of Zifu monks or third-level monsters in the Baojing Lake area.
However, Chen Ji did not release it, but slaughtered the monks in Baojing Lake Oasis to obtain the materials for corpse refining.
The most likely possibility is that he cannot freely control the third-level zombies and is afraid that they will turn against his master if he releases them.
It can be seen from this that Chen Ji's cultivation level should only be at the peak of foundation building, but he has not opened up the Zifu.
Now Wang Daoyuan was completely relieved. Although he might not be able to defeat Chen Ji at the peak of foundation building, at least he would not be killed easily.
As for the third-level corpse refining below, Chen Ji couldn't control it very well. After releasing it, he still couldn't decide who to attack.
As long as you don't take the initiative to enter the secret realm, you don't have to worry about these third-level corpse refiners.
Even if Chen Ji dares to release the third-level refined corpse with all his strength, the worst he can do is sacrifice his flying kite to escape. What can the flightless refined corpse do to me?
There is no need to worry about Chen Ji's cultivation. He has not been able to open the Zi Mansion for so many years. Can he suddenly open the Zi Mansion now?
What we should consider now is how to lure Chen Ji out. After all, we can't just waste time here.
After thinking everything through, Wang Daoyuan quickly settled the food and drinks.
At this time, Wang Daoyuan suddenly noticed a slight fluctuation of consciousness, which came down from the third floor and reached the shopkeeper's ears.
This was a divine sound transmission, and he also judged that the person who sent the divine sound transmission had a slightly weaker spiritual consciousness than himself.
However, his weakness is very limited, and this person should be a peak foundation-building monk.
Although Wang Daoyuan's spiritual consciousness is strong, it is not strong enough to directly intercept the sound transmission of his spiritual consciousness.
Jinghu Inn has three floors. The lobby on the first floor has scattered seats, private rooms on the second floor, and the third floor does not accept guests.
If he wanted to inquire about the news, it would be best to sit in the lobby on the first floor.
Wang Daoyuan called out the check, and the shopkeeper came forward in person.
The shopkeeper was at the fifth level of Foundation Establishment. He came to the table and said with a smile: "Are you satisfied with the food and wine in this shop?"
Wang Daoyuan didn't speak, just nodded.
The shopkeeper continued: "These wines and dishes are worth a thousand spiritual stones in total."
Wang Daoyuan smiled and said: "Your master is really interesting. When I first arrived here, a fellow Taoist gave me a thousand spiritual stones, and your master insisted on taking these spiritual stones back.
That's all, it's just a thousand spiritual stones. Killing anyone casually would cost more than just this few spiritual stones.
Since your master wants it, then take it."
After that, he took out ten middle-grade spiritual stones from his storage bag, handed them to the shopkeeper, stood up and walked out of the inn.
In a room on the third floor, there are two monks, one with long beard and one with short beard.
The short-bearded monk smiled and said: "This man is really sharp, he can even detect the fluctuations of the sound transmission of his spiritual consciousness.
If his spiritual consciousness cultivation level were higher, he might be able to directly intercept the content of the spiritual consciousness transmission.
What do you think of this person?"
The old man with a long beard replied: "This man's spiritual power has a very strong cold air, and he also asked about the corpse refining more than ten years ago, so maybe he was going there as well.
This person is not a fussy person, and his actions can be considered aboveboard. He is an excellent partner to work with.
If he continues to stay here, we will try to win over him."
The short-bearded monk nodded and said, "We still need to test it out, maybe this person is in the same group as the previous group of people.
If so, we are seeking the skin of a tiger.
Moreover, his popularity really doesn't seem like that of a casual cultivator. Coupled with his superb methods, he might be the direct descendant of a certain big force.
The risks of cooperating with such people are not small.
His strength is indeed not weak, but if he is buried underground, we will wait to be hunted down by the forces behind him."
