Becoming a Saint by Touching Corpses

A pair of eyes filled with shock secretly observed the battle between Zhao Wushuang’s group and the strange entities within the Blessed Land from several different directions.

“How could such a monster exist in the True Monarch Blessed Land, one that can’t be killed by an ordinary Fifth Layer of the Spirit Platform?”

“The Sixth Layer of the Spirit Platform is indeed terrifying; they can easily kill the strange entities in the Blessed Land with a wave of their hand, without much effort.”

“We must quickly seek out the innate primal energy. If we can’t nurture someone to the Sixth Layer of the Spirit Platform in these few days, then once the inter-world bridge reopens, life and death will not be ours to decide!”

These cultivators who concealed their energy and observed the battle were all drawn by the soaring red light.

They thought some shocking treasure had emerged and were just in time to witness Zhao Wushuang’s group displaying their might, causing them to feel apprehension in their hearts.

Among them were Lou Yi’s friends such as Su Xinghe, Ming Du, Shen Aoqun, Three Corpses Daoist, Ding Shiniang, as well as loose cultivators and lone heroes who had followed Lou Yi into the Blessed Land.

“Should we go over and take a look?” Ding Shiniang glanced at the backs of Zhao Wushuang’s group, somewhat hesitant.

The underground cave Zhao Wushuang’s group was heading to likely held precious items that could enhance their power.

If they could snatch away these treasures, it might bolster their group’s strength, increasing their chances of survival.

“I’ll go with Lin Xuan, see if we have an opportunity. You all wait here, follow the signals on the message charm for further actions.” Su Xinghe said.

At this moment, his cultivation had fully recovered and seemed to vaguely show signs of advancement.

The reason was that he had obtained a wisp of innate primal energy two days ago, fully healing his injuries.

As for Lin Xuan, he was one of the only two in the group fortunate enough to obtain innate primal energy, and his cultivation had reached the Fifth Layer of the Spirit Platform, making him exceptionally powerful.

As for Ming Du Daoist, Shen Aoqun, Three Corpses Daoist, and others, their injuries weren’t fully healed or their cultivation wasn’t high enough, going over would only create chaos.

“Alright, you two be careful.” Ming Du and others advised.

Shen Aoqun and Lin Xuan then hid their aura well, quietly moving towards the cave ahead.

In the dark, damp, winding, and long underground cave, Zhao Wushuang and his group cautiously cleared the way with flying swords and detection spells, without encountering any danger.

Soon, they arrived at the deepest underground space.

There they immediately saw Lou Yi sitting cross-legged on the ground.

His eyes were slightly closed, dressed in somewhat tattered gray short attire, covered in blood, surrounded by an array of demon corpses, having clearly just endured a fierce battle, his condition didn’t seem good.

“Red Hero?”

Zhao Wushuang and his group barely glanced at Lou Yi and were immediately captivated by the vast dark treasure lotuses behind him, their eyes showing delight.

Each lotus was the size of a human head, white spots dancing on the surface of the petals, surrounded by a faint red glow, a delicate scent occasionally wafting, invigorating the spirit.

“Such a treasure, I can feel the incredible energy it’s nurturing!”

“Can this thing be directly consumed?”

“I happen to have brought my alchemy furnace; I’ll refine it all into essence.”

“If that doesn’t work, I’ll just feed it to my spirit pet!”

As for Lou Yi guarding the lotus pond, he became the most direct obstacle to seizing the treasures.

Everyone looked at him with malicious intent.

At this moment, Lou Yi spoke.

“You want to kill me? However, before that, I can destroy the lotuses behind me.”

After saying that, he raised his right arm, palm facing backward, where an enormous, restrained energy was gathering, ready to erupt—just a trace leaking out could easily obliterate heavenly materials and earthly treasures.

“How dare you!”

“Stop it!”

“Do you want to die?”

The cultivators behind Zhao Wushuang rebuked angrily.

“Able to kill a host of demon clan royals and even emperors, Red Hero, you are indeed extraordinary, surprising me.” Zhao Wushuang said coolly, “Under my command, I’m just lacking a personal warrior.

I’ll give you one chance today to pledge allegiance; I can overlook your past mistakes.”

His tone was condescending, as if Lou Yi being his warrior was a huge privilege.

“Red Hero, Zhao Daoist is benevolent, considering how hard cultivation can be, you should grasp this chance, or else centuries of cultivation would go to waste.” Ningshuang Daoist’s voice, clear as a golden oriole, rang out, instilling trust and conviction.

“Is that so?” Lou Yi opened his eyes, his tone not as firm as before.

The Golden Pig Demon and Thousand-legged Insect Demon also entered, but they were bound and had no role to play.

The Golden Pig Demon, seeing Lou Yi’s dire state, felt worried; in such conditions, how could Lou Yi contend with other humans?

Besides, if he truly pledged allegiance, how could it seize any opportunity to escape amid the chaos?

At this moment, it saw Ningshuang Daoist’s jade hands swiftly making complex gestures behind her back.

A thin blue ice wall suddenly stood between Lou Yi and the lotus pond, with the surface of the ice wall engraved with intricate Daoist patterns, hinting at its extraordinary durability.

Simultaneously, a splendid six-layered palace rose swiftly above True Mastery Daoist’s head, with golden bricks paving and jade stones roofing, supported by thirty-six dragon-inlaid green pillars, radiating splendidly, shrouded in purple mist somewhat resembling the legendary Lingxiao Treasure Palace.

Without any unnecessary actions, True Mastery Daoist controlled the six-layered palace, transforming into a dazzling stream of light, fiercely striking towards Lou Yi!

The so-called ’Fifth Layer of the Spirit Platform Condensing True Form’.

The spirit platform resembles actual objects; it’s the cultivator’s strongest magic treasure, for offense and defense alike.
