Chapter 448: On Refining Corpses
fore her death, Qing Ting's entrustment was simple, she only wished for Qin Sang to bury her and her husband on a small island called Mingqin Island. They had first met on Mingqin Island, watching the...Qin Sang didn't lie to the fat man.

Three strands of soul-attracting grass, a total of seven celestial corpse talismans were refined.
Before entering the Yuncang Great Swamp, Qin Sang had already used up five.
One was used on Yu Daiyue, but the refining of the corpse failed. One was used on Liang Yan, and a zombie was successfully created, but it was destroyed by Yu Hua in Wuyagu Valley.
One was given to Tan Jie, keeping his soul intact. The other Qin Sang used herself to save her life.
The other one is used to seal Yu Huazhen's primordial spirit, but Qin Sang has never been sure, so he has been hesitant to refine the corpse. Yu Hua is still being raised in the Corpse Puppet Bag.

The Soul-Drawing Grass is hard to find. Just in case, Qin Sang had to keep one for himself, so over the past three years he'd only refined that one zombie and sold it.
Bao Guan Shi didn't believe Qin Sang's ghost stories and said to himself, "Your corpse refining art is unique. Those refined corpses are powerful. If there are better quality corpses willing to make a move, this shop will definitely give you a satisfactory price. However, although Bao Mou has limited knowledge, after doing this for so many years, I can also guess one or two things. These two types of corpses, the living corpse is obviously stronger than these refined corpses. No, it's not even comparable! The higher the cultivation level, the bigger the gap!"
Qin Sang chuckled, turning his head to glance. The nine zombie corpses were being publicly humiliated and remained clueless.
"My zombie corpses, in the eyes of fellow cultivators, are worth nothing"
The manager shook his head repeatedly, saying, "Friend Daoist, don't tease me. I'm not speaking without reason. My words just now, you must be able to understand..."

Qin Sang made a gesture of eager listening.
"That package of someone just spoke plainly, and hoped that fellow Taoist wouldn't mind."
The official glanced at the corpse.

I just heard from you that these nine corpses are called Sha Corpse.

"A Corpse Puppet possesses formidable strength, surpassing those crafted through other necromantic arts. However, it has two major flaws."
Firstly, corpses cannot be upgraded!
>Other corpse refinement techniques can enhance the realm of corpse refinement through raising corpses or other secret methods. Some ghost cultivators even raise corpses to become lifelong companions, growing alongside the ghost cultivator, with limitless future potential.

"To be frank with you, the last time I saw your corpse puppet, I was so excited that I kept one for my own study. That's when I realized how unique your corpse refinement technique is."

"It seems that the moment it was being refined, the Corpse of Calamity had already taken shape."
"Bao Mo used several corpse refining techniques on it, but it didn't improve its strength at all. Even if it was kept in the inner courtyard for cultivation, there shouldn't be any change."
At first, Bao believed it was due to Earth Sha Qi and tried every means to find Earth Sha Qi, but he still couldn't achieve his goal.
“A cultivator’s strength will definitely increase gradually, while a Corpse Puppet remains stagnant. Soon, it will fall behind its master and become useless. Isn’t that the biggest drawback”
Bǎoguǎn shì's eyes were bright and his expression was very confident as he questioned Qin Sang.
Beneath the black robe, Qin Sang's eyes flickered. Hearing Bao Guan Shi's words, he couldn't help but be surprised.
>
To my surprise, this person is also a master of the Corpse Dao. All his guesses were right.
In "The Heavenly Yin Corpse Scripture," the method for refining a malevolent corpse is indeed as Bao Guan Shi said, limited to the strength of the corpse before its death. Once refined, it reaches its peak and cannot be improved, until it is destroyed.
Just like the reanimated corpses, Qin Sang only learned from Wushang's handwritten notes that there was a secret method to promote reanimated corpses to flying yakshas.

But The Heaven Yin Corpse Sutra excels in the speed at which it cultivates corpses, requiring no lengthy corpse nurturing period.

Of course, the Tianshi Sect also has normal corpse raising techniques.
>
The method of refining zombies, just like other sects' corpse refinement techniques, can be gradually improved along with the cultivator. Moreover, it can draw a wisp of Earthly Evil Qi into the body to temper the flesh, still surpassing other corpse refinement techniques.
However, Qin Sang couldn't stay in the Yin Sha land forever. Living alongside a corpse day and night wasn't something he wanted to do, and he had no intention of spending his energy cultivating his own natal corpse. He merely treated the corpse as a tool for fighting and self-defense.
Seeing Qin Sang's contemplation, Bao Guanshi didn't mind and continued speaking.
"Bao Mo was not entirely without gain. I discovered that the dantian of the corpse puppet differed from other corpses in a significant way, suggesting it had been refined through a secret technique by a fellow cultivator."
"The dantian, which is also what Bao said was the second flaw!"
Besides the weaknesses shared with other types of corpses, a Sha corpse also has a dantian, its most vulnerable point!
I am unclear about what secret method you, Dao friend, used to strengthen the dantian of the soul-binding corpse and withstand the impact of the Earthly Evil Qi.
“But the malevolent Qi is clearly not so easily appeased. Once the dantian is destroyed, the malicious Qi surges through the body, causing a chain reaction throughout the entire being. The corpse of the malevolent spirit collapses, with no room for recovery.”
> A soul-shaper’s spirit is extremely low, possessing only the instinct to kill. The battlefield changes rapidly, and if its master is unable to focus on controlling it, an opponent can exploit a weakness and easily destroy the soul-shaper.

If one's cultivation is low, perhaps they can conceal themselves from the other party's eyes.
"The higher the opponent's cultivation, the more discerning their eyes. It wouldn't be surprising if a veteran expert saw through Sha Shi's weaknesses at a glance."
> But the living dead are different!
>
"The master of the corpse hurried away, Bao didn't have time to look closely, and wasn't sure if the corpse could be improved through cultivation or possess other abilities. But Bao could confirm one thing: the corpse was full of spiritual energy, instinctively knew how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and protect its vital points. Even in a duel between masters, it could still play a powerful role!"
The steward spoke in one breath, finishing all the tea and water on the table, smacking his lips with satisfaction. "Fellow Daoist, are there any errors in what Bao has said"
Qin Sang stood up tall and arched his hand, saying, "Bao Guan Shi's eyes are like torches. Just by looking at a mere corpse, he could see so much. My old self's details were almost seen through by Bao Guan Shi. I admire you! However, this old man didn't deceive Bao Guan Shi. Although zombies are strong, the difficulty of refining them is astonishingly high, and the requirements are extremely strict. Even if this old man had the heart, he wouldn't be able to do it. If Bao Guan Shi has nothing else to do, please give me a price estimate, old man. I still need to go back to practice hard and won't continue to bother Bao Guan Shi."
Hearing this, Bao Guan Shi's face couldn't help but fall with disappointment. However, he didn't give up and persisted, "Friend Daoist, don't rush! Just because there are no zombies now doesn't mean there won't be in the future. Allow me to ask Friend Daoist a question: given enough time, is it possible for you to refine a zombie comparable in strength to a high-level cultivator of the False Pill realm"
Qin Sang looked deeply at the Bao Guan Shi, hesitated for a moment, and said: "It's impossible to compare with the fake Dan realm... Corpse in the later stage of foundation building, perhaps there is a chance. However, Daoist friends should not compare other corpses and living corpses. The ability of living corpses is stronger than Bao Guan Shi imagined."
The guardian was overjoyed and eagerly said, "Friend Daoist, how would you sell a living corpse Even if Bao cannot afford it himself, he can help Friend Daoist find a buyer."
Qin Sang's heart moved, and he said meaningfully, "If Bao Guan Shi can really help this old man find a buyer, this old man only needs three things. First, a spiritual object that can assist in forming a golden pill; second, a heavenly and earthly treasure that can repair the foundation; third, a demon pill from within ten years of leaving the body or..."
Qin Sang stopped mid-sentence.
The manager's face turned very ugly.
