Martial Uncle Four-Eyed explained the Zombies in detail. Yang Yi and Lin Cai also knew some things about Zombies, but they were not as detailed. After hearing Martial Uncle Four-Eyed's words, Yang Yi was also a little shocked.
These zombies were divided into walking corpses, zombies, bronze-armored corpses, silver-armored corpses, golden-armored corpses, and above them were the corpse gods, flying yaksha, and drought demons.
Zombies were the three souls that dispersed after a person died. Because the resentment in the heart attracted the seven spirits, the seven spirits were trapped in the body. Not every corpse would become a zombie. At the beginning, they could only be called walking corpses.
Martial Uncle Four-Eyed used the Corpse Controlling Talisman to guide the seven spirits of the corpse that had yet to disperse, making them walk on their own. They could also be called walking corpses.
Zombies, on the other hand, were corpses that had already gathered a certain amount of Corpse Qi and become extremely powerful. However, they needed to absorb blood to stabilize the Yin and Yang in their bodies. They did not have any consciousness and relied on their instincts to move.
In order to become a Bronze-Armored Corpse, a Corpse Refinement Master had to use his soul power to refine the corpse. In addition, he had to place the corpse in the Yin specter crypt to absorb enough Evil Qi and supplement it with a large number of materials. The refining process was extremely difficult, no different from refining a magic tool, and it would delay his cultivation. Therefore, Corpse Refinement Masters were rarely willing to refine the corpse step by step.
Instead, he used Ksitigarbha's method to choose people with unique destinies and died unjustly. He used a secret method to seal their seven orifices and heavenly spirits so that their divine sense would not scatter and let the earth veins nourish the walking corpses. However, it would take decades or even centuries for them to become bronze-armored corpses, silver-armored soldiers, and golden-armored corpses.
However, this method was only used by those clans that had been cultivating corpses for hundreds of years. Ordinary cultivators did not have the time to do so.
The most important step was to choose the refined corpse. This step was also the most difficult.
This was because the conditions for the formation of the Bronze-Armored Corpse, Silver-Armored Corpse, and Gold-Armored Corpse required that the corpse's fate and eight characters must be the best in the world before they died. They also needed to die unjustly before they died. With this kind of resentment sealing the seven orifices of the heavenly spirit, their divine sense would not be scattered. Then, the time of burial must be the Yin hour, and the Yin house chosen must also be the Nine Evil Spirit Gathering Cave.
In this way, under the tempering of the Nine Yin Evil Qi, the corpses would turn into different Armored Corpses according to their Life Providences. Among them, the Gold-Silver Armored Corpses with Dragon Qi were the strongest, while the Copper-Armored Corpses were the weakest.
The original bodies of the Golden-armored Corpse and the Silver-armored Corpse must be emperors and princes with the fate of the dragon vein. Because of the support of fate, most of these people died a good life. Even if they did not die a good life, they would not be buried in the great evil cave where their descendants would die. Therefore, these corpses were almost as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns.
The Golden-Silver Armored Corpses possessed the knowledge and wisdom of their predecessors. Their bodies were extremely strong, and they could not be compared to sabers and spears. Ordinary ritual implements could not harm them at all. Moreover, they could instinctively absorb the essence of the sun and moon to temper their bodies. They could also escape into the earth. When they cultivated to the extreme, they could become flying yakshas. They would not enter the five elements, but would leave the three realms. They would be no different from immortals. That was the true horror.
The relatively weaker Bronze-Armored Corpses also needed officials with extremely high positions. These people had a certain amount of power behind them. If they were not careful, they would suffer revenge. Even those century-old aristocratic families could not bear it.
Therefore, the path of corpse refinement was most popular during the change of dynasties. Now that the new and old dynasties had been replaced and the dynasties had been destroyed, many officials and descendants of the previous dynasties had been refined into zombies.
Therefore, whether it was painstakingly cultivated or nurtured by the Ksitigarbha Dharmic formulation, it was difficult. However, once it succeeded, its power would be terrifying.
Martial Uncle Four-Eyed had obtained a Bronze-Armored Corpse by chance, so he had used a secret technique to exchange for the way of Corpse Hunting and Corpse Refining of the Liu Family in Xiangxi. He had used a technique to erase the consciousness of the Bronze-Armored Corpse and attached a wisp of his own spirit to it with the Yin Body Changing Technique, refining it into a clone that could be controlled as easily as an arm.
Martial Uncle Four-Eyed used this refined corpse to refine demons and protect him. He also helped people chase corpses to accumulate merit and cultivate with merit.
This was also because Martial Uncle Four-Eyed had a problem with his foundation. Although he had cultivated the Yin Spirit, it was difficult to advance further. He could only cultivate to the Prominent Divine Realm with the power of virtue.
Martial Uncle Four Eyes brought Yang Yi and Lin Cai to the group of undeads.
These undeads used yellow silk scrolls that had been smoked with realgar to cover their seven orifices. They also used nails to nail the nine vital gates of the dead bodies, and there were many red threads tied around them.
"Martial Uncle, I used to see the undeads you brought with you covered with yellow silk scrolls. Why are you using so many things now?”Lin Cai asked curiously.
Four Eyes said seriously," These undeads have been affected by the corpse aura of the Silver-Armored Corpses. They have become zombies. These nails are Dragon Locking Nails. The nine Dark Yin Life Gates that are used to pin these zombies are to prevent them from continuing their corpse transformation."
These red threads are the Three Thousand Red Dust Threads that I refined using a secret technique. I connected these nails together and formed an Inescapable Net Soul Locking Formation on the surface of the corpse. Not only did it lock the corpse's soul essence, but it also locked the corpse aura that was constantly emitting.”
When Si Mu said this, he looked at Ninth Uncle proudly.
Ninth Uncle only snorted. He also intended to let Yang Yi and Lin Cai learn this knowledge, so he did not interrupt.
"Ding! Discovered the Heavenly Net Soul-locking Formation. Do you want to learn it? It requires 2 merit points."
Yang Yi looked at the Inescapable Net Soul-Locking Array and hesitated for a moment before rejecting it. This Inescapable Net Soul-Locking Array required Dragon Locking Nails and 3,000 Red Dust Silk. These were all refined using secret techniques. If Uncle-Master Four-Eyed did not teach him, he would not be able to set up the array even if he knew about it.
He continued to listen to Martial Uncle Four-Eyed's explanation.
Martial Uncle Four-Eyed opened the yellow scroll, revealing the forehead of the corpse. In the middle of the forehead, there was a red tree-like corpse gathering pattern.
"This is a Corpse Controlling Talisman. Your master also knows it, but he doesn't have my profound knowledge. Now, I'll teach you Corpse Controlling Talismans and some techniques to control zombies. However, I promised the Liu family that I wouldn't teach it to others, so you can't easily reveal it in the future.”Four Eyes said solemnly.
Yang Yi and Lin Cai were shocked. Each sect had their own methods to control zombies, but none of them were as exquisite as the Liu family in Xiangxi. Their clan had been able to cultivate since the end of the Ming Dynasty, and it was said that there was a flying yaksha in the clan that was not weaker than any of the large sects.
The secret technique of the Liu family was far superior to other techniques. Most importantly, this secret technique was not taught to outsiders. The reason why Uncle Four-Eyed could learn the complete secretary was that he had not only exchanged a secret technique of Taoism, but also married into the Liu family.
"Martial Uncle, if the secret technique of the Liu family is leaked, will they hunt us down?”Lin Cai hesitated for a moment, but still said it.
"Of course not. Don't you know how to refine the Divine Firmament Heavenly Thunder Talisman? He gave me dozens of Divine Firmament Heavenly Thunder Talismans. The Divine Firmament Heavenly Thunder Talisman is a secret technique of Mount Longhu. Don't spread the refining method to others in the future.”
Ninth Uncle nodded in agreement.
Yang Yi smiled and said," Martial Uncle, I've already refined ten talismans in this period of time. I'll take advantage of the lightning weather to refine more for self-defense in the next few days."”
The four eyes patted Yang Yi." Very good. A person like me who has a hard life finally has a lightning talisman to protect me. In the future, when I encounter those filthy things, I can scare them away."”
