Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse-Chapter 247 - 140: Wind and Cloud Immortal City, Upgrading the Corpse Eye
Once out of the Far West, the situation in the Divine Fall Mountain Range becomes vastly different. The Spiritual Qi is far more abundant, and the dense forests and long rivers are much more spectacular. With a casual glance, one can see towering, ancient trees with gnarled roots reaching a hundred feet tall, teeming with Spirit Beasts and Demon Beasts, posing significant danger. One can even hear the roars of Tier Two Demon Beasts from the distant woodlands.
After nightfall, flying in the Divine Fall Mountain Range becomes even more perilous, far exceeding the soul memories of Liu Qianling, Yanposhan, and others.
The first danger comes from below. Demon Beasts hunt at night, frequently attacking cultivators flying in the air. The tree demons in the forest would stretch out vines reaching hundreds of feet long to capture anything passing overhead.
Of course,
Flying a bit higher can avoid such dangers.
But this solution is only applicable to Foundation Establishment Cultivators. If it's a Qi Refining Cultivator, flying high would lead to certain death.
Because there are many aerial Demon Beasts as well.
Only now did Wen Jiu understand why the Loose Cultivators of the Far West, despite knowing they were trapped in a corner, did not venture out. Why those Qi Cultivation Perfection Cultivators did not venture out seeking opportunities, instead waiting patiently for the Celestial Extinction Ruins to open.
Such as: Ku Yue, Yan Shanhai, Yanposhan, and others.
If they could venture out to seek opportunities, they wouldn't persistently struggle in the Far West.
If alone, or even in groups heading towards the Central Shen Yun Mountain Range, without a Foundation Establishment leader, many would surely perish on the way to the Central Shen Yun Mountain Range, nearly without exception.
Because in just one day, Wen Jiu had already encountered two attacks, one from an aerial Demon Beast and the other from a tree demon. This was even when the Three Evil Flying Corpses exuded the aura of Foundation Establishment, yet still some demons would attack him.
If it were a Qi Refining Cultivator, it would probably be even more tragic.
Now that he thought about it, it was only natural for Feng Jue to plan to backstab the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks.
Having suffered during Qi Cultivation, after reaching Foundation Establishment, one would naturally choose to stand up, at least have someone standing behind them.
"It seems these demon creatures, tree demons, and the like are all things the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks tacitly allow to exist. Otherwise, how could the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks not resolve such troubles? And these are all Spirit Stones."
"These demon creatures naturally form a thousand-mile barrier, causing those cultivators capable of flying to remain trapped in a corner all their lives."
Wen Jiu couldn't help but lament.
Initially, he had thought about flying for a bit and then finding a place to rest and replenish the corpse energy of the Three Evil Flying Corpses.
But along the way, he couldn't find any place to rest, at least not within a thousand miles out of the Far West.
Reluctantly, Wen Jiu could only use Spirit Stones to replenish his Yin Technique and Yin Spirit Stones to replenish corpse energy, working hand in hand.
However, after passing through that thousand-mile barrier, the world became open and bright, with cultivator's cave mansions and cultivation cities appearing everywhere, and blue stone paths extending in all directions, continuously reaching the horizon.
Unlike the cultivators in the Far West crowded on mountaintops for cultivation, the Central Shen Yun Mountain Range also had mountains and rivers, but they were not tall or numerous.
Most cultivation cities were near Spirit Rivers, or cultivation sects close to Spirit Veins; Foundation Establishment Cultivators were still rare. Along the way, Wen Jiu would use Divine Sense to probe, finding only one Foundation Establishment Cultivator every two or three hundred miles.
Most displayed the aura of old age, yet Qi Cultivation Perfection Cultivators were indeed more numerous than in the Far West.
Wen Jiu tried investigating a larger Cultivation Clan's territory, and although there were no Foundation Establishment Cultivators, there were two Qi Cultivation Perfection Cultivators.
There were even over a hundred in the Late Stage of Qi Cultivation.
Nothing matched the Deadman Peak.
However, their auras weren't particularly strong; clearly, their techniques and cultivation methods were also controlled by the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks. Additionally, with more cultivators and higher cultivation levels in the Divine Fall Mountain Range, competition was even fiercer. Hence, even if an opportunity presented itself, it likely wouldn't fall to these Immortal Families without Foundation Establishment levels.
The journey proceeded without much incident, also because the Qi Refining Cultivators dared only low altitude flying, so the way was quite peaceful.
After casually asking a Qi Cultivation Perfection Cultivator for the direction to Wind and Cloud Immortal City, Wen Jiu headed straight to Wind and Cloud Immortal City.
Its scale was actually quite acceptable.
Having previously witnessed metropolises with a permanent population of twenty to thirty million people in a previous life, Wind and Cloud Immortal City seemed just fine. However, truth be told, the scale of Wind and Cloud Immortal City was indeed the largest city he had seen in this world.
From east to west, it measured at least forty or fifty miles, and from north to south, nearly seventy or eighty miles. The residential houses and ancient towers within were countless, with even more cultivators coming and going.
And once within a ten-mile radius of Wind and Cloud Immortal City, even Foundation Establishment Cultivators couldn't fly above.
However, what amazed Wen Jiu the most was the grand array enveloping Wind and Cloud Immortal City; even though he wasn't a Spirit Array Master, Wen Jiu could discern its extraordinary nature. Compared to the formation of the Ten Thousand Demon Abyss, it was simplicity incarnate.
Tier Three?
Or even higher?
Wen Jiu retracted the Three Evil Flying Corpses and descended, following the wide blue stone paths towards Wind and Cloud Immortal City. As he walked inside, he saw various servants and low-level Qi Cultivation Cultivators soliciting guests by the roadside, promoting their family-run restaurants and inns, along with Spirit Beast Carriages and gentle maids waiting to serve.
With a mere nod, the Spirit Beast Carriage would take you directly to a place of consumption, where you could just focus on spending.
"Senior, would you like to stay at Dao Tong Inn? A Tier One Top-Grade Spirit Gathering Array adds to the ambience, and there's Top-grade Spirit Wine provided, all for only fifty Low-grade Spirit Stones a day!" Soon, a servant approached Wen Jiu.
"No, thanks."
Wen Jiu directly declined.
