Cultivation starts from devouring the Dao fruits
Chapter 61: Chapter 61: Slaying Foundation Establishment

The Golden Lion Master's face suddenly changed dramatically, his eyes flashing with terror, and he screamed, "Evil Ghost! You can command evil ghosts! You are a spy from the Yin Ghost Sect!"

After the Yin Ghost Sect infiltrated the Northern Wilderness, they fought the four great sects of the Northern Wilderness to a standstill with the power of just one sect. The terror of the various evil ghosts commanded by the Yin Ghost Sect cultivators had deeply penetrated the hearts of the people.

Many Foundation Establishment cultivators from the four great sects of the Northern Wilderness had died miserably at the hands of the fearsome evil ghosts controlled by the Yin Ghost Sect.

The Golden Lion Master was merely an ordinary first-level Foundation Establishment cultivator, and the sight of the White Ghost Emperor had immediately filled him with ominous forebodings.

The White Ghost Emperor gave a fierce smile and floated toward the Golden Lion Master like a ghost.

The Golden Lion Master clenched his teeth and directly summoned a black coffin, hurling its lid toward the White Ghost Emperor, while revealing an eight-foot-tall bronze corpse inside, its body emitting a fierce aura.

The Golden Lion Master took out a corpse controlling bell and shook it, producing a series of eerie bell sounds.

The bronze corpse inside the coffin abruptly opened its eyes, which flickered with a ferocious light.

"Go!"

The Golden Lion Master pointed at the White Ghost Emperor.

The bronze corpse sprang from the coffin and lunged directly at the White Ghost Emperor.

"Don't destroy it, let me handle it!"

Zhao Yu casually threw a Flying Dagger that pierced through the head of a short-haired cultivator and yelled at the White Ghost Emperor.

The White Ghost Emperor, being a spirit among the kings of a hundred ghosts and strengthened by Zhao Yu with numerous Yin Ghost relics, could easily defeat the bronze corpse. However, Zhao Yu wanted to keep the bronze corpse.

The White Ghost Emperor, grinning ferociously, reached out a claw, grabbed the bronze corpse, and casually flung it toward Zhao Yu.

Clang!

Zhao Yu executed the Lightning Sword Technique, his high-grade magic artifact, the Green Pine Sword, flashing like lightning as it stabbed into the heart of the bronze corpse, yet sparks flew off without harming it in the slightest.

So tough! Legend had it that bronze corpses, with skin and bones of bronze, could only be harmed by spiritual artifacts, akin to body cultivators; indeed, the rumors were true!

The expressionless bronze corpse threw a fierce punch at Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu, with a surge of competitiveness, activated the 60th level of the Vajra Dragon Elephant Art, his muscles bulging as he punched out.

Clang!!

Sparks flew, and Zhao Yu was blown back dozens of steps, his right hand intensely painful, his expression slightly changing, "The bronze corpse is indeed incredibly strong, even stronger than me!"

The expressionless bronze corpse charged straight at Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu no longer contested directly with the bronze corpse but instead used the Phantom Step Technique, unfolding the Lightning Sword Technique and circling around the bronze corpse.

The bronze corpse, with its bronze skin and iron bones, immense strength, and extreme speed, had almost no weaknesses, but its movements were straightforward and easy to predict.

Although Zhao Yu could not defeat the bronze corpse, self-preservation was not an issue.

Meanwhile, the White Ghost Emperor had almost instantly appeared in front of the Golden Lion Master.

"Go!"

The Golden Lion Master took out a low-grade second-order Fire Snake Talisman and activated it immediately. A beam of fiery light dazzled in midair, and a fire snake, about ten feet long and made entirely of flames, lunged at the White Ghost Emperor.

The most effective methods against evil spirits and related entities were Lightning Technique and various evil-repelling spells and divine skills, followed only by flame spells.

The White Ghost Emperor faced the Fire Snake with a ferocious smile, his body swirled with black energy, and his claws were enveloped in layers of dark ghostly Qi as he tore at the Fire Snake.

The dark ghostly Qi was ignited by the Fire Snake, instantly giving off copious amounts of black smoke, yet the Fire Snake was also torn to pieces by the White Ghost Emperor directly.

"Zhao Yu, stop! I can tell you who it is that wants to harm you!"

Jin Lion's face paled as he hurriedly produced a palm-sized silver Spiritual Shield. The silver shield shimmered, unfolding a silver barrier in front of him.

With one swoop of his claw, the White Ghost Emperor penetrated the silver barrier, grabbed onto the silver shield, and injected dark ghostly Qi into it, causing the shield to lose its spirituality instantly and fall to the ground.

The next moment, the White Ghost Emperor's claw pierced Jin Lion's heart, extracting it directly, then his mouth split open, and he bit ferociously into Jin Lion's body, activating his soul-devouring ability and swallowing Jin Lion's soul in one gulp.

Jin Lion's body only showed a large hole where his heart had been, but his remnant soul had already been devoured by the White Ghost Emperor.

With Jin Lion dead, the Corpse Controlling Bell in his hand fell to the ground.

The Copper Corpse's gaze dimmed, and it collapsed directly to the ground.

"Ah! The power to devour the Dao Fruit can be activated!"

Zhao Yu's mind moved, and he activated the power to devour the Dao Fruit, as the White Ghost Emperor directly refined and assimilated Jin Lion's soul.

"Magic Talent: Utterly unremarkable (0/100)."

"Ghost Control Talent: Utterly unremarkable (0/100)."

"Formation Talent: Utterly unremarkable (0/100)."

"Artifact Refining Talent: Utterly unremarkable (0/100)."

".….."

Rows of information about the enhancement of various talents appeared immediately.

Zhao Yu internally thought, "Devouring the soul of a cultivator can enhance my soul talent, how terrifying! This ability must only be used against my enemies."

The White Ghost Emperor pounced towards the three fiends of Linshan, opened his mouth, and devoured all three of their souls, which were then refined by Zhao Yu using the power of the Dao Fruit.

"The souls of Qi Refinement Realm cultivators cannot compare to those of Foundation Establishment Cultivators. The soul of a Qi Refining Great Perfection Cultivator is not even one percent as powerful as that of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator."

"By devouring souls with the power of the Dao Fruit, memories can also be obtained! Ning Canghan of the Cang Ling Sect, it turns out he was behind Jin Lion's actions against me. Why would he do this?"

"Langshan Ridge! Nine times out of ten, it was because Bingyun did something that affected Ning Canghan. This is his revenge! He dared not strike Bingyun directly, so he chose me instead."

Through the Human-Ghost Pact Secret Technique communicated to the White Ghost Emperor, Zhao Yu clearly saw in Jin Lion's memories the figure of Ning Canghan and the words Ning had spoken to Jin Lion.

Ning Canghan had promised to help Jin Lion acquire a piece of Second-order Spiritual Land and gain recognition from the Cang Ling Sect to establish a new Foundation Establishment family. It was this promise that led Jin Lion to make a move against Zhao Yu.

Jin Lion had originally planned to have the three fiends of Linshan deal with Zhao Yu. If they could take down Zhao Yu, he would not have to intervene and could easily acquire the Spiritual Land. He also feared Bingyun, the genius of the Cang Ling Sect.

However, the three fiends of Linshan were effortlessly killed by Zhao Yu, and Jin Lion had his cover blown, forcing him to reveal himself before being killed by Zhao Yu.

"Jin Lion's secret technique and cultivation method were mediocre, but the Corpse Cultivation Technique he acquired from an ancient site had some merit. Iron Corpse, Copper Corpse, Silver Corpse, and Gold Corpse correspond to Qi Refinement, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, and Nascent Soul Stages respectively."

"The Corpse Cultivation Technique records how to nurture and advance various corpses. Unfortunately, this secret technique's highest achievement is the Silver Corpse, with no continuation on how to advance a Silver Corpse to a Gold Corpse. Even so, in the northern wastelands, this is considered a top-tier secret technique."

Zhao Yu reviewed the important memories of Jin Lion and discovered more surprises.
