Becoming a Saint by Touching Corpses

Chapter 375: Advancement (Part 1)


The flying vessel was about a zhang long, crystal clear, with two rows of slender flames blazing on its sides, looking like its wings.

On the flying vessel stood a man in a black robe, surrounded by a fiery red halo, appearing extraordinarily powerful.

He maneuvered the vessel to land in the courtyard, revealing his original appearance.

He looked to be in his forties, with a burly figure, a broad face, and thick eyebrows.

A pair of eyes filled with malice were like forged iron, constantly emitting a strong sense of oppression.

'Elder Bi?'

Lou Yi instantly recognized the visitor's identity as Elder Bi, Bi Yaoyao's father.

With Elder Bi's appearance, everyone felt a chill in their hearts.

Many disciples bowed and saluted.

Even the campsite elder, also a Foundation Establishment cultivator, and Wang Wenbai's grandfather, Elder Wang, dared not show any carelessness.

"Elder Bi, how come you have time to visit this remote place?" The campsite elder said with a smile.

"I heard someone here was bullying others, and my lifelong interest is in resolving injustice, so I happened to come by to see," Elder Bi said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Elder Wang's expression stiffened.

Somehow, he who just flaunted himself before many disciples.

After seeing Elder Bi, became extremely honest, completely retracting his imposing manner.

Anyone with a clear mind could see his apprehension towards Elder Bi.

Lou Yi glanced at Bi Yaoyao, finding her winking at him proudly, clearly indicating Elder Bi was called by her.

'With Elder Bi here, even if Elder Wang finds out I killed his grandson, I won't be in any immediate danger.'

Thinking this, Lou Yi exhaled a long breath of relief.

"Wang Hongyue, what exactly are you doing?" Elder Bi unceremoniously questioned.

"My grandson died in the True Cave Mansion. With the treasures I gave him, he definitely wouldn't have died at the earlier stages.

And on the last level of the Cave Mansion, only our sect's disciples came out alive, they must know something..." Elder Wang said with a gloomy face.

"Even if you find out, so what?

The situation inside the True Cave Mansion is complex, different from the outside world, without sect laws to bind, everything relies on oneself." Elder Bi stated calmly, "Grudges among the younger generation should be resolved by them.

Your grandson couldn't survive, that's his incompetence!"

Upon hearing this, a trace of anger flashed across Elder Wang's face.

Yet Elder Bi relentlessly continued, "Entering a place like the True Cave Mansion, seeking fortune means stepping over others' corpses. Whoever is afraid of death should not go!

The young have died, now the old come to argue.

Then in the future, others should not strive, and obediently offer resources to the disciples of Sword Sect, Dark Yin Sect, Five Elements Sect from those big sects!"

Hearing the long-absent word 'Five Elements Sect,' Lou Yi couldn't help but feel a jolt in his heart.

It seems the Five Elements Sect is far scarier than he imagined.

In the field, Elder Bi still continued his overwhelming tirade against Elder Wang.

The words were extremely unpleasant, using insults like 'fool' 'stubborn,' causing disciples to wish to hide elsewhere, fearing Elder Wang would remember their faces.

"...I think you're confused, why not quickly retreat?" Finally, Elder Bi began to drive the people away.

Elder Wang's face was extremely unsightly.

Reluctantly, he looked at You Qingyi and the ten or so people that he hadn't questioned, just these few remained.

He had a hunch that the inheritor of Master Han Yue likely hid among these ten or so people!

Once he found the inheritor, even if not the true culprit, they must know who killed his grandson!

But the current situation outweighed strength... If he didn't leave now, Bi Lingyuan would genuinely make a move...

Seeing Elder Bi becoming somewhat impatient, with red light flickering around him.

Elder Wang no longer dared to linger, he left on his Banana Leaves Flying Magical Artifact.

Yet his venomous, snake-like gaze as he left sent chills down everyone's spine.

Many disciples knew that the remaining ten or so who hadn't been questioned by Elder Wang would certainly be targeted later.

Lou Yi and You Qingyi exchanged a glance, seeing the gratitude and worry in each other's eyes.

If it weren't for Bi Yaoyao calling her father, Lou Yi's situation might not have been good.

The Foundation Establishment...

A deep expression flashed in Lou Yi's eyes, he must quickly enhance his strength, by any means elevate it!

"Quickly, get on." Fearing Elder Wang might do something shameless again, Elder Bi decided to personally escort the disciples back to the sect.

Everyone boarded the fiery red vessel, marveling at the spacious interior and the cool temperature inside.

"Qingyi told me she might encounter danger, so I immediately called my father." On the vessel, Bi Yaoyao transmitted to Lou Yi with Spiritual Sense, "Why do I feel this matter is related to you?"

"If it's related to me, would you not save me?" Lou Yi secretly transmitted, conversing with Bi Yaoyao.

"It truly is you, what happened inside the Cave Mansion's last level, tell me."

"Wait until we're back at the sect."

...

Returning to the Corpse-Driving Sect.

Disciple Peak, the familiar cave, Lou Er sat quietly in a corner.

Lou Yi began organizing all the gains from this trip to the True Cave Mansion.

The gains were plentiful and varied, categorized according to his aspects of strength, related to talent, immortal path, and martial arts.

First was talent.

Lou Yi took out a bottle of fragrant milky white liquid, precisely the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, Earth Vein Spirit Marrow, which he discovered in the Spirit Vein.

He looked at the Attribute Panel, noticing the elusive + sign next to the Disguise Talent, imagining pressing a force onto it.

Disguise (Proficient 0/300+1 Earth Vein Spirit Marrow) → Disguise (Mastery 0/2000+1 White Taisui)

In the void, a large stream of cool energy entered his body, making Lou Yi feel itchy all over.

It seemed as though countless tiny bugs crawled over his bones and flesh, conducting special transformation.

Unknown how long it took, the transformation completed.

The description of the Disguise Talent underwent some changes.

Disguise (Passive): The longer one stays in a certain environment, the more easily they integrate into it.

Disguise (Active): Greatly reduces one's sense of presence, making others ignore, and can continuously apply to dynamic situations; can alter the layout of body's muscles, can slightly alter the arrangement of bones, can slightly mimic others' aura.

The changes mainly occurred in two areas.

One was about muscle layout, previously it could slightly alter the arrangement of superficial muscles. Now, the modifiers of slightly and superficial were removed, becoming the ability to alter the body's muscle layout.

Bone arrangement was also added, reflecting progress in both breadth and depth.

The second area was related to aura, able to slightly mimic others' auras?

Lou Yi's heart stirred, beginning to operate the Disguise Talent.

The next moment, his muscles all over began to sink, bulge, lengthen, and shorten like clay...

'Crackling' sounds continued to emit, as his bones automatically adapted to muscle changes to match them.

A tall, thin, handsome man appeared in the cave.

The appearance was not just alike Lou Yi's friend Rong Xuejian, it was almost identical.

Especially the serious, intelligent aura, which was not much different from his friend's.

'It's real enough to pass for the genuine.' Lou Yi thought.

'I wonder if it could deceive Foundation Establishment cultivators?' With Elder Wang's threat looming, Lou Yi dared not be careless.

Finally, he made a judgment.

At long distances, deceiving Foundation Establishment cultivators should not be a problem.

But at close range, Foundation Establishment Divine Sense can be extended, thus there wasn't much confidence.

Nevertheless, his survival ability definitely improved considerably.
