Silver Armored Corpse

As the burly man spoke, he pulled out a disc-shaped compass from his Pregnant.

The compass had hundreds of stars, and one blood-red star was particularly eye-catching!

Based on everyone's position, that blood-red star represented Lin Feng's location!

This was clearly a Dao Artifact!

The burly man slung his broadsword over his shoulder, his face full of mockery; in his opinion, the Lin family members were lambs to be slaughtered.

They naively thought that burying their heads in the sand would hide their tracks, unaware that they had been circling in a sheepfold all along.

"Lin Feng, kid, aren't you coming out yet?"

The burly man wanted to break their psychological defenses, but he opened his mouth for a long time without uttering a single word.

He scratched the back of his head, then looked at the younger brother beside him in confusion.

"Ergouzi, what was that saying again?"

The man called Ergouzi was very thin, giving off a feeling of being weak and easily blown away by the wind.

He wore a white tall hat on his head, and his robe was a dark green, elegant style.

Seeing his boss in such a dilemma, he couldn't help but feel a surge of joy, thinking, "My chance to shine has arrived!"

He bent at the waist, lowering himself greatly, his smile appearing very false.

"Boss, this scene can be perfectly described by one phrase!"

"You regret not having studied enough when you need to apply it!"

The burly man mumbled to himself upon hearing this, but the more he thought about it, the more wrong it seemed, and his brows furrowed together.

"Ergouzi, you probably used the wrong phrase!"

"What I meant was, tell the Lin family not to make any unnecessary struggles!"

Seeing his boss getting angry, Ergouzi dared not provoke him and quickly admitted his mistake.

Then, patting his chest, he guaranteed, "It's never too late to mend the fold after the sheep have escaped."

This sentence sounded very awkward in the burly man's ears, but he didn't understand what it meant.

If he said it out loud, wouldn't he be considered a boor? It was better to remain silent!

"After all, true recluses are always taciturn."

"Ergouzi, well done, what a good poem!"

Hearing his boss's unreserved praise, Ergouzi was extremely Divine Qi, looking at his companions behind him, who were full of envy.

He made a gesture, circling his temple, probably meaning: "A brain is a good thing."

......

Outside the Lin family residence, a man's face was distorted in a ferocious grimace; anyone who didn't know would probably think someone had provoked him.

"The cooked duck flew away, and I even have to stay behind to wash the pot!"

In front of him was a group of people in black robes, led by an elderly man.

Their furtive movements clearly showed that this group of people could not stand the light of day.

"This old servant greets master."

"Master, these Lin family members are top-grade Materials! If they can be sold on the black market, we will surely make a huge profit!"

"Especially that Lin Feng, why don't we..."

Before the Elder could finish his sentence, the man in front of him waved his hand, interrupting him.

The coldness in his eyes seemed to materialize, his gnashing teeth reflecting his temper, and then he let out a cold shout.

"An Elder from the Zhao family has fallen, and according to the compensation, we have to shed some Blood."

"Leave that exceptionally talented Lin Feng; as for the others, just kill them all...."

As soon as he finished speaking, the man flicked his sleeves and left! He restrained his anger very well, not letting others see any clues, but his distorted face already explained everything.

The Elder dared not show any slack and quickly accepted the order to show his loyalty!

The vast Lin family was exterminated with a single word, and as for the reasons, he naturally dared not speak too much.

However, the Elder's heart also had some guesses; having lived for so long, if he didn't have some insight, then he would have lived for nothing.

"Old people become shrewd, old things become strange."

"There are always some old monsters whose lifespans are nearing their end, and with ill intentions, they frantically search for evil methods to extend their lives."

"Using human lives for experimentation has become commonplace."

"This Qingfeng City is originally their backup Materials; every year, countless talented men and women perish...."

.......

The scene shifts to the Li family residence.

"Senior, this Junior will never forget your guidance during these past days!"

Li Tan's eyes were sincere, and his posture was perfectly upright; although he had lost his left hand, he didn't miss any of the proper etiquette.

"We are one family, no need for formalities. We all share the Li family's Bloodline; Blood is thicker than water! Even if bones are broken, the sinews are still connected."

Li Yong casually waved his hand and walked eastward, from the direction, he was probably going to drink tea and enjoy himself.

"An envoy from Heaven Sword Immortal Sect will descend the mountain in these two days; that person and I are quite familiar."

"You must not cause any trouble, lest it affects the process."

Perhaps thinking of something, Li Yong suddenly stopped, and blamed himself, "I'm getting old, even my memory is failing."

"The corpse refining is already prepared!"

"Also, you should change your storage ring!"

"If you have no resources in hand, it's like an eagle unable to spread its wings."

For the first time, Li Tan felt it was so hard to suppress the corners of his mouth: "Another great Opportunity, this Li Yong is truly my fated benefactor."

"Bang!"

While Li Tan was lost in thought, two Corpse Fiend were released!

The first one was Li Zhi!

It was unknown what method Li Yong used to raise his Cultivation to the ninth Rank of Qi Refining! Of course, this did not include Li Zhi's previously hidden Cultivation.

As for what was different from when he was alive, the biggest drawback was the look in his eyes!

The Corpse Fiend's eyes were lifeless, devoid of any emotion; one glance would tell you it was a dead thing.

Its palms had already turned into sharp claws, and its soles were four-sided long hooks! Uneven and of varying lengths.

Presumably, this was to make the Corpse Fiend more adaptable to combat environments, allowing it to adjust and transform in different harsh conditions.

The Corpse Fiend's body was stronger, and its physical body was estimated to have reached the Man Niu Realm.

However, this was quite normal; Corpse Fiend were originally based on Body Refining and were famous for their powerful physical bodies!

When Li Tan looked at the second Corpse Fiend, the word "dumbfounded" could not even describe Li Tan's state of mind at that moment.

This was an extremely beautiful woman, with an ethereal Aura and delicate features.

Most importantly, her eyes actually contained luster! Containing color!

Her body was slender and graceful, forming a stark contrast with Li Zhi; her palms were also like those of a normal person, and her feet were fair and small.

She was practically like a living person, simply lifelike!

Perhaps sensing Li Tan's change, Li Yong stroked his beard contentedly: "Li Tan, this is the Silver Armor Corpse your grandfather refined for you!"

"Silver Armor Corpse corresponds to a Building Foundation Cultivator! It's not something any random cat or dog can challenge."

"At the same time, the Silver Armor Corpse possesses a certain degree of sentience! It only needs to recognize a master, no need to worry about betrayal!"

Li Tan felt nothing special about Li Yong calling him "Li Tan"; he regarded it as worthless.

But Li Yong's later words were deeply etched into his heart!

The phrase "will not betray" made him even more confused!

He couldn't understand and was about to ask, but Li Yong, being understanding, spoke first!

"I naturally know your confusion; your Cultivation and understanding are still far from reaching the Foundation Establishment level."

Crossing levels is inherently absurd; even the best among Qi Refining Cultivators cannot contend with Foundation Establishment!

The Spiritual Qi of both sides already has a qualitative difference; Qi Refining is simply the quantity of Spiritual Qi, while Foundation Establishment is Spiritual Qi liquefaction!

One drop of Spiritual Qi liquid is equivalent to a hundred portions of a Qi Refining Cultivator's Spiritual Qi; merely in terms of storage, the difference is over a hundredfold!

And in terms of techniques for utilizing Spiritual Qi, accumulated combat experience, and a broader vision, Foundation Establishment Cultivators will form an overwhelming advantage!

As well as the absolute suppression of Cultivation! Without a trump card, there is only a dead end!

Li Yong casually explained the reason: "The corpse refining methods you've seen are merely the most inferior methods of the slave Dao!"

"How could more valuable resources easily fall into the hands of Qi Refining Juniors?"

Li Tan pondered, quietly awaiting Li Yong's guidance, without any intention of interrupting.

"Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment are a great hurdle! No school of thought can escape this rule!"

"And corpse refining belongs to the slave Dao! Naturally, it is also included!"

"When a Corpse Fiend's Rank reaches Silver Armor Corpse, it already possesses rudimentary sentience! It's not unexpected for it to break free from that unwritten rule."
