Chapter 87

It was clear to Hu Donghan that even ordinary bones could be refined into zombies. However, in Hu Donghan's view, refining zombies from corpses that had no potential for growth was not as good as not refining them at all!

After all, the strength of the zombies and skeletons refined by Hu Donghan was not limited by his own strength, but rather by the suppression of soul power! If Hu Donghan's soul power could bear it, even if he had a zombie at the Transformation Realm now, he wouldn't have to worry about backlash!

Since he was going to refine a zombie, the best choice would naturally be to do it all at once. If he had to refine a new zombie after not too long, it would be better not to waste the time.

Immediately, Hu Donghan shook his head and said, "Thank you for your guidance, Senior Brother Wang. However, I still want bones suitable for refining zombies."

"Really, there's nothing I can do with you! Since you've made up your mind, I won't waste words." Wang Ruo Long shook his head and said casually, "The corpses of these Corpse Ghost Pythons should still be lying around in the Earth Fire Hall. After you go out, just find a pill refining child or a miscellaneous servant, and have them take you there. Take them all away..."

These words left Hu Donghan speechless. These good corpses for refining zombies, according to Hu Donghan's original thoughts, should at least be properly stored in a good place. He didn't expect that the management would be so casual... Of course, this was good news for Hu Donghan, as he achieved his goal without much effort.

"By the way, Senior Brother Wang, may I ask what strength these Corpse Ghost Pythons originally had?"

The original strength of these corpses was also something Hu Donghan was concerned about. According to the zombie refining methods in the "True Explanation of the Ghost Path," with the assistance of the talismans in the general guidelines, they could be quickly infused into the zombies, allowing the zombies to quickly regain strength close to their original life! If the original strength of these Corpse Ghost Pythons was not weak, Hu Donghan could completely gain some combat strength in a short time.

Wang Ruo Long frowned and thought for a moment, saying, "This... I don't quite remember. However, since they are Corpse Ghost Pythons, the weakest should be at the late Foundation Establishment stage, and most should be at the early or mid Golden Core stage!" After a pause, Wang Ruo Long added, "Why are you asking these things? Anyway, the strength doesn't really matter, does it?"

After saying this, Wang Ruo Long turned to tidy up the surrounding spirit medicines, showing no intention of continuing the conversation.

Seeing this, Hu Donghan directly bowed to Wang Ruo Long and left the Earth Fire Cave.

After leaving the Earth Fire Cave, Hu Donghan found a pill refining child and had the child lead the way. They soon arrived at the miscellaneous storage area inside the Earth Fire Hall—here, all kinds of useless items and garbage that had been processed were piled up. Some were waste slag extracted by the Equipment Department, while others were useless materials discarded by the Alchemy Department.

The pill refining child searched through the pile of miscellaneous items for a moment and then led Hu Donghan over—

What met the eye were corpses enveloped in dense corpse qi. These corpses had a strange head, a long body, and a tail. The head had no mouth, only a large eyeball that moved, and below the eyeball were two large nostrils. A hole was drilled in the center of the head, from which the inner dan had clearly been taken. The entire body was covered with dense scales, and the surface of the scales shimmered with a faint blue fire.

These corpses varied in size, with the larger ones being about twenty meters long and the smaller ones about ten meters long.

Hu Donghan stood in front of one of the corpses, touched it a few times, and then examined it according to the corpse identification techniques in the "True Explanation of the Ghost Path." He finally confirmed that these Corpse Ghost Pythons were indeed very suitable for refining into zombies—

Previously, Wang Ruo Long had said that Corpse Ghost Pythons were very suitable for refining into zombies. However, Hu Donghan had not personally identified them, so he was still unsure. After all, whether Corpse Ghost Pythons were suitable for the zombie refining methods in the "True Explanation of the Ghost Path" was unclear!

After confirming that the Corpse Ghost Pythons were indeed useful, Hu Donghan, of course, would not let such suitable corpses for refining zombies go.

He pointed to the Corpse Ghost Python corpses in front of him and asked, "If I take all these corpses, how many spirit stones will I need?"

The pill refining child bowed and smiled flatteringly, saying, "Senior Uncle Hu is joking. These are just some discarded materials. Even if Senior Uncle Hu doesn't come, they will be cleared away as garbage in no time, and no spirit stones are needed at all..."

Hu Donghan glanced at the pill refining child and, without further ado, wanted to put these corpses into his storage ring and take them away.

However, although Hu Donghan's storage ring had a considerable space, it wasn't large enough to carry all the corpses. He could only carry about twenty of them before it was full.

Seeing Hu Donghan staring at the corpses, the pill refining child reminded him softly, "Senior Uncle Hu, if the storage ring can't hold them, Senior Uncle Hu can go to the Equipment Department and ask for a zombie bag. As long as it's a spirit-level zombie bag, it should be able to hold these corpses without any problem..."

The pill refining child's words reminded Hu Donghan.

Since the evil sect had soul rings specifically for containing ghosts and wandering spirits, there were also zombie bags specifically for containing corpses, and skeleton rings for containing skeletons.

A zombie bag, for example, was made by attaching corpse qi and using special techniques to refine the materials. Such a zombie bag could only be used to contain corpses and not any other items. The refining method had been passed down from an unknown era and was untraceable.

Letting the pill refining child lead the way again, Hu Donghan quickly returned to the Earth Fire Hall and began talking to a refining apprentice representing the Equipment Department, proposing to buy a zombie bag.

The refining apprentice, like the pill refining child, did not dare to be disrespectful to Hu Donghan and directly introduced him to a temporarily idle refining master.

The refining master, seeing that the person buying the zombie bag was from the Earth Fire Hall, took out a low-grade spirit-level zombie bag and gave Hu Donghan a discount, only charging ten high-grade spirit stones—such a grade of zombie bag, if sold outside, might not be available even for twenty high-grade spirit stones.

After obtaining the zombie bag, Hu Donghan's gaze immediately fell on a small banner that the refining master had brought out casually.

"Is this... a ghost banner?" Hu Donghan noticed the strands of yin qi on the small banner and asked.

The refining master nodded and said, "Yes, this is a Thousand Ghost Banner I refined, reaching the high-grade level, capable of containing five thousand yin souls, not much weaker than some slightly inferior top-grade Thousand Ghost Banners!"

"Junior Brother Hu, do you not yet have a suitable ghost banner? If so, you can take this Thousand Ghost Banner for a hundred high-grade spirit stones!"
