The Soul-Calming Nail is entirely black, with bizarre golden runes that can suppress the intelligence of a Thousand-Year Stiff.
There are a total of one hundred and eight of these dark nails, most of which are hidden within the corpse of the Thousand-Year Stiff.
Stimulated by the Blood River, driven by her instincts, the Soul-Calming Nails dropped out of her body one by one.
As each Soul-Calming Nail was unsealed, the Thousand-Year Stiff gradually regained her self-awareness.
The Thousand-Year Stiff waved at the Soul-Calming Nails, and they lined up, wrapping around her.
Through days and nights of assimilation, the Soul-Calming Nails had become a part of the Thousand-Year Stiff.
The Soul-Calming Nails jingled together, forming a bizarre black giant sword.
The giant sword was two meters long, with golden runes engraved on it.
The Thousand-Year Stiff, satisfied, shrunk the giant sword, turning it into a hairpin, coiled behind her head.
She looked at the surging Blood River, licking her lips; this was the best place for her to restore her strength.
The Thousand-Year Stiff could feel that the blood within the Blood River was very pure, enough to heal her wounds.
"Corpse Speaker, once I fully recover, I will show you the terror of Zombie Immortal Li Jingning."
"Taking advantage of my slumber, during my ascension, you dared to refine me into a puppet without a shred of consciousness."
"Such audacity!!!"
Recalling being treated like a toy by someone like this, Li Jingning felt a towering rage wrapping around her soul.
She wanted nothing more than to grind the Corpse Speaker's bones to dust.
"Is this the tribulation I must endure to ascend to immortality?"
Li Jingning said coldly, a Zombie needs to endure three disasters and nine tribulations to transcend and ascend to immortality.
Being refined into a Corpse Puppet by the Corpse Speaker, her strength had been significantly weakened.
That damned contract continued to bind her soul.
As a Zombie Immortal, Li Jingning naturally had her own ways.
She inserted her fingernail into her forehead, extracting a drop of crimson blood.
With a blood-red flame igniting at Li Jingning's fingertip, the contract between the Corpse Speaker and her was instantly broken.
Backlash followed, compounding Li Jingning's injuries.
"At least the contract is broken; the price is only worsened injuries, still within my bearable range."
"After all, I, Li Jingning, am an immortal existence; given time, I will recover."
Blood Fiend Aura surged into Li Jingning's body, and at this moment, a blood-red whip swung heavily toward her direction.
"How abhorrent, abhorrent, truly abominable."
"You've taken this as a top-grade nutrient?"
"This Blood River took me a great effort to collect; I won't let you defile it!!!"
"It's the medium for summoning the Demon God."
Blood Demon Du Bo was almost driven mad, his eyes widened, veins bulging with blood.
If looks could kill, Li Jingning would be pierced with countless holes by Blood Demon Du Bo's gaze.
Li Jingning tapped her foot on the Blood River, ascending into the sky.
Blood Red Evil Qi lifted Li Jingning, letting her hover in the air.
A hint of a mocking smile appeared at the corner of her mouth: "Turns out it's a Blood Demon, and an incompletely transformed one at that."
"Why provoke me like this?"
"I am a Zombie Immortal!"
Li Jingning was originally a Tier Eight powerhouse, but after being refined into a Corpse Puppet, her strength dropped to Tier Seven.
Given some more time, she was bound to return to Tier Eight.
Zombie Immortal Li Jingning, draped in a blood-colored long dress, wielding the black Soul-Calming Sword, stirred a violent storm in the Blood River.
In rage, Blood Demon unleashed terrifying Blood Magic, causing the Blood River surface to explode, thousands of blood-red giant pythons emerging, their Blood Bowl Big Mouths opening, attacking where the Zombie Immortal stood.
The Zombie Immortal commanded with her mind, her long sword slicing again, causing the python bodies to explode into countless Blood Mist.
"A good chance, die now!"
Seeing this, Blood Demon moved, appearing at the Zombie Immortal's back like a ghost, extending sharp claws to viciously strike her head.
In the end, Blood Demon merely hit the Zombie Immortal's Clone.
The next second, Li Jingning appeared beside Blood Demon, swinging her sharp sword, piercing through Blood Demon's body.
However, Blood Demon turned into thick blood, dissipating into the air.
"It's useless, as long as the Blood River doesn't dry up, I won't die."
"And you, will be exhausted to death by my countless Clones."
Blood Demon's sinister voice emerged from a side, he was full of confidence.
"Is that so?"
Zombie Immortal Li Jingning seemed to doubt Blood Demon's words.
At her peak, the Zombie Immortal could refine an entire Blood River with ease.
"Blood Magic, Blood Red Thorn!"
The river surface exploded fiercely, countless sharp blood-colored thorns emerged, attempting to tightly bind Li Jingning.
"How weak."
The Zombie Immortal vanished instantly, appearing in the air, her hand spreading out.
In the palm, a mouth appeared.
The two mouths sucked fiercely at the Blood River below, large amounts of blood were ingested into the Zombie Immortal's palm like a whale.
Her previously emaciated body plumped up, her crimson lips becoming very alluring.
"Thanks for the treat, I've been gone for so long, time to return to the ancient tomb for a look."
