The demon corpse's body was surrounded by runes, its aura surging, and its body began to swell. Long Chen was terrified out of his wits by the sight. When this green-furred parrot taught him, it never told him this would happen.
"Buzz"—
just as Long Chen was about to lure the demonic corpse out of his soul space and let it self-destruct outside, suddenly the Golden Divine Gate inside the chaotic space trembled.
The demon corpse vanished in an instant, and when it reappeared, it was already in the chaotic space. When the demon corpse appeared, the runes around him instantly extinguished, and his aura was suppressed by the laws of the chaotic space, preventing him from self-destructing.
Seeing this, Long Chen let out a long sigh of relief. He arrived at the chaotic space and looked at the corpse. At this moment, countless runes around the corpse had been burned pitch black, and it was clear the corpse was crippled.
Long Chen tossed it directly into the black soil and returned to his soul space. When he looked at the next corpse, he actually didn't dare to make a move.
"No doubt about it, the spell that green-haired one taught you is correct, but this thing has a certain chance of failure. Keep going!" Qiankun Cauldron said.
Hearing this, Long Chen felt much more at ease, no longer doubting the spell, and began to continue casting the Heavenly Soul Blood Curse.
"Buzz!"
"Damn it...
failed again. Long Chen shouted angrily, and his corpse was transferred by the Divine Gate into the chaotic space and thrown back into the black earth.
"Stay calm. You were planning to treat them as fertilizer from the start. Even if you fail at all, you won't lose much, and besides, you've gained some experience for free and still have some profit." Qiankun Cauldron said.
Long Chen took a deep breath and nodded, saying, "Senior, your lesson is right. I was too impatient." After
calming down, Long Chen felt he had been too greedy. Thinking of this, he completely relaxed. Even if he failed completely, his "fertility" would not decrease.
"Buzz"
failed again.
"Buzz"
continues to fail.
Long Chen didn't care about success or failure; he simply used his soul power to control the blood spell runes in different ways. He knew that although the green-furred parrot had taught him this set of spells, it definitely kept some trick.
But there was nothing to complain about. This spell was originally extorted by Long Chen. Did he really expect others to hold nothing back?
"Buzz buzz buzz... After
seven consecutive failures, on the eighth attempt, the runes around the demon corpse trembled continuously. This time, it did not lose control; the runes around it instantly pierced through without stopping.
"Come on, I get it."
Watching the runes flickering all around the demon corpse, Long Chen was overjoyed. He immediately found the trick and directly planted a blood curse on the next demon corpse.
However, this time, he failed again. Still, Long Chen did not lose heart and tried again, and this time he actually succeeded.
Of the twelve demonic corpses, only three were successfully planted with blood curses, then waited for their bodies to gradually awaken under the power of the curse, somewhat like "thawing," gradually making their stiff bodies flexible and allowing stagnant blood and qi to flow slowly, allowing their meridians to run again.
However, this takes some time. According to the Green-Furred Parrot, it usually takes about ten days for the curse seal power to truly activate, and then it will be able to truly control them.
After finishing all this, Long Chen was in a great mood. If he could really control these three demon corpses, wouldn't he be able to walk around the Wind Domain battlefield with confidence?
Now that the three demon corpses were dealt with, the rest would be left to time. Once their blood curse runes fully took effect, they would become Long Chen's most powerful puppets.
After dealing with the demon corpse, Long Chen continued to communicate with the Yaoshi Star Crystal. After the first conversation, he clearly felt it lower its guard against him. When Long Chen's soul connected with it, its power surged into Long Chen's dantian star sea once again.
However, this time, Long Chen didn't dare let it run wild. Although it wouldn't harm Long Chen, it was too rough and could cripple Long Chen if not carefully.
According to the Qiankun Cauldron, this Yaoshi Star Crystal contains the power of a star river. When the star river falls, the star crystal is eternal. To master it, one must first learn to harness its power.
To use its power, one must gain its approval and have the conditions to withstand its power. Now, the first thing Long Chen needs to do is to use the power of the Yaoshi Star Crystal to transform his star sea.
Only then could Long Chen's star sea carry its power, rather than being blown apart by it. This was originally a long and painful process.
But that Yaoshi Star Crystal was foolish and had no guard against Long Chen at all; instead, it helped him in every way, which was far beyond the Qiankun Cauldron's expectations.
When the power of the Yaoshi Star Crystal surged into Long Chen's star sea, it instantly boiled, and at the same time, his meridians throbbed with intense pain.
Previously, the Yaoshi Star Crystal had modified Long Chen's body, forcibly injecting star power into his meridians and flesh. Now, as the star sea swirled, the star power instantly spread throughout his body.
Although it was extremely painful, Long Chen was overjoyed. Previously, to mobilize the power of the stars, he had to go through many procedures and prepare in advance.
But now, Long Chen discovered that the power of the stars could flow freely within his body, just like bloodline power, and could be summoned at will.
The pain was mainly due to his physical body, which couldn't withstand such terrifying star power. But Long Chen knew that as long as he endured this part, it would be fine.
Thinking that the power of the stars could move at will, with the intention to receive and receive at will, then what difficulties could there be in cultivating the secret techniques of the Nine Star Heirs? Just thinking about those terrifying ultimate moves made Long Chen's heart burn with excitement.
However, Long Chen needed to constantly control the power of the Yaoshi Star Crystal, because its power was terrifying and he had to be cautious at all times. Moreover, this guy seemed impatient, always thinking about transforming Long Chen's body in one go.
The power of the stars penetrated Long Chen's flesh through his meridians, but the Yaoshi Star Crystal was not penetrating at all; rather, it violently pierced the power of the stars into Long Chen's body.
Frightened, Long Chen hurriedly stopped him. Not to mention whether he could endure the immense pain—even if he did, his body would be in a semi-crippled state, unable to fight for a long time. The Wind Domain battlefield would immediately open, but that was not acceptable.
Fortunately, Long Chen could stop this transformation at any time. The Yaoshi Star Crystal could only reluctantly retreat. After these small modifications, Long Chen was already drenched in sweat, his eyes spinning from the pain.
"Buzz"
Before Long Chen could even take a pill to recover, the void suddenly trembled, and overwhelming blood energy surged down like a tidal wave. A long, piercing cry from the Qijiao Swallowing Heaven Sparrow echoed in his ears, its voice filled with fierce fighting intent.
