Chapter 89

"Indeed, this large creature is the most suitable for refining into a zombie!"

"Now, this Corpse Demon Dragon has just barely recovered its ability to move, and is merely a green-haired zombie; yet its combat strength is absolutely superior to that of an average mid-stage Qi Condensation cultivator! The reason is simply that its massive body, brute strength, and relatively strong scales give it an edge."

"However, even with these advantages, they only last in the early stages. Once it becomes an Iron-Armored Corpse, it will be only slightly more powerful than an average cultivator, and the advantage will not be as significant as it is now."

"After all, the strength of a being is not determined by its physique! If it were, these Corpse Demon Dragons would not be hunted by cultivators."

Hu Donghan squinted his eyes and observed the Corpse Demon Dragon for a while, then made a special finger gesture. Immediately, the tiny soul mark on the Corpse Demon Dragon's forehead flickered, and its entire form vanished into thin air.

At the same time, on the Soul Register within Hu Donghan's divine soul, a pattern identical to the Corpse Demon Dragon appeared below the soul point representing Ya Er.

"The power of this soul mark is indeed unique! After being imprinted with the soul mark, the zombie is connected to the Soul Register through the soul power within the mark! With just a thought and a small expenditure of soul power, I can send the zombie to the Soul Register to carry it!"

"Moreover, when the zombie is stored in the Soul Register, it automatically enters a dormant state and does not consume corpse qi, so there is no need to replenish it. Additionally, placing the zombie directly on the Soul Register, unlike a Corpse Refinement Bag, has no restrictions, and there is no need to worry about the bag being stolen. This is far superior to using a Corpse Refinement Bag to carry zombies!"

"The numerous secret techniques in the *True Explanation of the Ghost Path* are powerful, and this one alone is already very impressive!"

With a slight thought, Hu Donghan consumed a bit of soul power to summon and retract the Corpse Demon Dragon several times before stopping. He then summoned another Corpse Demon Dragon corpse from the Corpse Refinement Bag.

Imprinting the soul mark into the corpse and activating the residual soul power within to restore its mobility was already the limit. The next step was to perform the Corpse Cultivation Technique in the Corpse Bone Pit to continue the cultivation. However, the Corpse Bone Pit was rich in corpse qi, and cultivating just one Corpse Demon Dragon would be a waste of time and resources. According to Hu Donghan's plan, it would be best to cultivate ten Corpse Demon Dragons together.

Soon, Hu Donghan sequentially summoned the nine largest Corpse Demon Dragon corpses, imprinted the soul mark into each, and stored them in the Soul Register.

After controlling the ten corpses, Hu Donghan then took out the remaining nearly a hundred Corpse Demon Dragon corpses and used the control incantation from the Yin Soul Sect's Corpse Refinement Technique to control them simply. He then retracted them back into the Corpse Refinement Bag and stood up, entering the range of the Corpse Bone Pit again.

Approaching the Corpse Bone Pit, Hu Donghan first released the Corpse Demon Dragons controlled by the incantation, placing them in a disordered manner around the pit. Then, he summoned the ten Corpse Demon Dragons with the soul marks, allowing them to enter the pit one by one.

The Corpse Demon Dragons on the periphery, though controlled by the incantation, began to slowly absorb corpse qi, but compared to the ones with the soul marks, the difference was enormous!

As soon as the ten Corpse Demon Dragons were released, they began to absorb the surrounding corpse qi through their large nostrils! In terms of the speed of absorbing corpse qi, they were at least a hundred times faster than the ordinary Corpse Demon Dragons!

"The soul mark contains a trace of soul power! Using this soul power as a foundation, the residual soul power within the zombie is reactivated, giving it the most basic, simple, and instinctive intelligence. This trace of intelligence is one of the main factors in the growth of the zombie! It is precisely because of this small intelligence that the zombie can understand my simple commands, allowing the Corpse Cultivation Technique to be successfully performed!"

"If it were the Corpse Demon Dragons around here, even if I wanted to use the Corpse Cultivation Technique, it would be impossible."

"However, once the Corpse Cultivation Technique is performed, the rate of corpse qi loss here will certainly increase! Having these Corpse Demon Dragons around can confuse the situation and make it difficult for others to understand the real situation."

The main reason Hu Donghan used the control incantation on the surrounding Corpse Demon Dragons was to conceal his intentions!

With a slight thought, Hu Donghan adjusted the positions of the surrounding Corpse Demon Dragons slightly, then sat cross-legged and recited the general principles of the *True Explanation of the Ghost Path* in his mind.

Although the general principles of the *True Explanation of the Ghost Path* were obscure and difficult to understand, Hu Donghan, in his past and present life, had recited them countless times, yet still could not understand any of the sentences. However, through continuous recitation, he was finally able to form one symbol after another in his mind during the recitation process.

All the techniques in the *True Explanation of the Ghost Path*, whether for ghost cultivation, zombie cultivation, skeleton cultivation, or miscellaneous techniques, would have the shadow of these symbols when used.

The more complex the technique, the more symbols were required.

While reciting the general principles in his mind, Hu Donghan made strange sounds with his mouth. As the sounds came from Hu Donghan's mouth, the ten Corpse Demon Dragons seemed to receive some command and began to tremble. As the trembling speed increased, suddenly, a scale on one of the Corpse Demon Dragons opened, beginning to absorb the surrounding corpse qi. As the first scale opened, more and more scales seemed to receive a command and quickly opened...

Unconsciously, a quarter of an hour had passed.

At this moment, all the scales on the ten Corpse Demon Dragons had fully opened, their nostrils had grown at least three times larger, and their eye sockets had expanded significantly, with their eyeballs almost falling out. Their current state was the same—constantly and疯狂地吸收着周围的尸气！

尸气被吸入体内，再从体表散逸出去。Corpse Demon Dragons的体内截留了一部分尸气，迅速将其转化为自身的一部分。

在这种情况下，它们吸收尸气的速度至少是原来的十倍以上！

“尸窍，全开！凝！”

突然，Hu Donghan略显怪异的声音终于停了下来，同时口中一声清喝，那十只Corpse Demon Dragons终于停止了颤动，彻底维持住了这种状态。五道奇异的符文仿佛凭空出现，各自印在了它们的身上。

符文上，青色的火焰来回游走，似乎具有一种独特的力量。这道青色的火焰正是先前的魂力所化！

而每一道符文之间，似乎还有一股奇异的力量将其连接，围绕着Corpse Demon Dragons的身躯移动着。
