Beng Yu truly deserves credit for being able to lead thirty thousand people to wander deep within the Sunset Mountain Range and bring them all back unscathed.
Upon discovering the anomaly, he imdiately inford Chen Jiuge and even ordered the remains of the Corpse Buddha to be brought over.
If it weren't for the fact that the dried corpses turned into a puddle of thick liquid after the Corpse Buddha was destroyed, Beng Yu would have brought them too.
"Dried corpses, Buddha statues?"
After reading the superstitions in his hand, Chen Jiuge showed a hint of doubt in his eyes. Is there still Buddhism in the Heavenly Gift Realm? Isn't that too far-fetched?
"No, it might not be local cultivators from the Heavenly Gift Realm; there's also the True Realm!"
One cannot underestimate the people of the world. The True Realm is so vast, and it's impossible that only we can establish a foothold in the Heavenly Gift Realm.
Moreover, so cultivators from the True Realm with special abilities and strong cultivation thrive in the Heavenly Gift Realm. Without the suppression of major forces, who knows what these crazy individuals might do!
"But the Corpse Buddha statue, why does it feel so familiar?"
"Wait, could it be that one?!"
Chen Jiuge suddenly recalled a rumor he had heard in the Five Elents Sect.
A long, long ti ago, the Taoist Sect was not the largest sect; Buddhism was number one. At that ti, Buddhas stood everywhere, and you could hardly take a few steps without seeing a bald head. Passing by any Immortal City, you'd see a self-proclaid Buddha.
But during the peak of Buddhism, an anomaly appeared. Born with a Buddha heart, this person was supposed to beco a true Living Buddha, but for so reason, when his cultivation soared to the heavens, he suddenly began massacring cultivators of all kinds!
And any cultivator killed by this Living Buddha would have their soul sealed in their body, their essence blood instantly drained to nourish the sealed soul, turning them into sothing akin to the zombies in post-apocalyptic movies.
However, these zombies born from cultivators were even more terrifying. Although their attack power remained within the realm range, their defense was terrifyingly strong, capable of surpassing several major realms.
Thus, this fallen Living Buddha almost single-handedly slaughtered the entire Buddhist Sect. How this Buddhist rebellion was finally quelled, Chen Jiuge didn't know, as it wasn't recorded in the secret scrolls of the Five Elents Sect.
But this Living Buddha had a title — the Corpse Ghost Buddha!
"It really is a chaotic world where all sorts of nonsense cos to light!"
Chen Jiuge helplessly complained quietly, his vigilance now fully heightened.
Although he didn't know which loose cultivator was using the Corpse Ghost Buddha's abilities, Chen Jiuge didn't believe that soone capable of single-handedly crippling the entire True Realm Buddhism would be easily manipulated.
As for whether the Corpse Ghost Buddha was already dead, that was out of the question. A cultivator who reached the level of the Corpse Ghost Buddha would have plenty of ways to co back to life, even if dead.
"If the Corpse Ghost Buddha were to appear in the Heavenly Gift Realm..."
Thinking of this possibility and the changes it would bring, Chen Jiuge couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
He knew that cultivators in the Heavenly Gift Realm primarily relied on their physical bodies. Their essence blood energy was at least several tis greater than that of True Realm cultivators. How terrifying would the transford corpses be then!
"No, I can't continue to act aimlessly; I must establish new guidelines."
"Expansion must continue. Whether dealing with the Corpse Ghost Buddha or enhancing our own strength, manpower is needed, and it will also indirectly slow down the Corpse Ghost Buddha's rate of converting corpses!"
"The cultivation of Spiritual Beasts must continue, but not all efforts can be focused solely on it."
"Additionally, the newly added residents in the city can no longer be treated with lenient policies. Although they are more loyal, it's too ti-consuming."
"And the Sky Serpent, we must truly make him cooperate with us, not just watch us frolic for fun!"
After confirming the necessary changes, Chen Jiuge imdiately took action.
He drafted various orders, had Yue Hui hand them to Shuibing, and headed towards the Heavenly Snake Cave himself.
The Heavenly Snake Cave remained unchanged, with an expanse of lawn roughly the size of two football fields outside. The knee-high grass concealed nurous little snakes whose spiritual wisdom had not yet awakened.
"Snakes? Could it be that the Sky Serpent also wants to cultivate a clan? But didn't the Spider Queen say that the Sky Serpent's abilities weren't suitable for cultivating a clan?"
Feeling a slight sense of urgency, Chen Jiuge felt anxious: "Indeed, the Sky Serpent doesn't trust us. Fortunately, we received Beng Yu's ssage today; otherwise, once the Sky Serpent forms a clan, it would be troubleso if things turn sour."
Upon entering, there were radiant spirit lamps on both sides of the passageway, emitting bright light.
"Tap, tap, tap"
The Sky Serpent, lounging lazily on the stone bed, yawned and turned, gazing at Chen Jiuge with light golden eyes: "Interesting, you actually ca to find !"
A sudden close-up narrowed the distance, the Sky Serpent showing a faint smirk: "Aren't you afraid of dying?"
Chen Jiuge slightly backed up a little, replying solemnly: "I believe, senior won't do anything to , after all, senior should need us!"
"I suspect it's because your injuries haven't healed?"
The Sky Serpent's light golden eyes slightly narrowed, then chuckled: "You're right, those three from the Ghost Fighting Tribe used so trick, leaving my injuries unhealed."
"When you guys found , I was contemplating where to escape to. After all, the other fierce beasts in the mountain range might not welco as Beast King."
