Chapter 291 Corpse Fighting Conference
“Disciple naturally dare not forget!”
Under the control of Liang Yan, Yao An bowed respectfully to Elder Ma, and at the same time reached into his arms with his right hand and pulled a The round pouch was handed into his hand.
"Eight Hundred Spiritual Stones, not bad."
Elder Ma weighed the small bag in his hand, with a happy expression on his face, and continued: "I can't tell you, kid, are still You are very good. I will recommend you first if I have another chance next time.”
"Thank you, Elder Ma, for your cultivation!" Yao An bowed his head again and saluted Elder Ma.
"Okay! I don't need to accept these dead bodies of yours. I believe that with your ability, the dead bodies found should be qualified." Elder Ma waved his hand.
"Disciples don't dare to neglect the sect's mission. I carefully selected these corpses, and they are all the best choices."
"Yes." Elder Ma nodded with satisfaction. Then he said: "According to the rules, you can choose a dead body to keep."
"Yes!"
Yao An first gave Elder Ma a fist, then turned back and looked back and forth among the dead bodies with his dull eyes.
“It’s him!”
Yao An suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed at the corpse of a young man in gray clothes among the corpses. Elder Ma looked along his fingers, with a strange expression on his face.
"This person clearly died not long ago, and is not the century-old corpse that our sect needs. Hehe, it seems that Yao An couldn't find fifty corpses that met the requirements, so he randomly found some to make up the number. He didn't dare to actually hand over the body to the sect, so he had no choice but to keep it himself." Elder Ma thought in his heart.
However, since he accepted Yao An’s favor, he naturally would not expose it in public. He just pretended to be confused and asked:
"Ahem, are you sure you chose him?"
"Disciple is sure!" Yao An nodded.
"Well, take him away."
"Thank you, Elder Ma!"
As soon as Yao An finished speaking, he immediately shook the bell in his hand, Liang Yan moved in response to the sound among the corpses and walked up to Yao An with a very mechanical movement.
Elder Ma didn't say anything when he saw this, but raised his hand and waved, and saw a green talisman fly out of his sleeve, swaying slightly in the air, and immediately emitting an eerie glimmer.
The remaining dead bodies were shrouded in this light, and they raised their heads one after another, staring at the talisman with their eyes motionless.
As Elder Ma performed the secret with one hand, the green talisman changed direction again and flew towards the hole behind the stone platform. The dead bodies underneath seemed to be being held by their necks, looking for the talisman with their heads raised, and walking towards the depths of the cave entrance. It didn't take long for all the dead bodies on the stone platform to disappear into the cave.
"Is this the 'Corpse Attracting Talisman'? I have heard it mentioned by Master before, but this corpse training is an extremely partial sect. There are very few such sects among the five countries. Today is the first time. Yes." Liang Yan thought to himself.
"Okay, if you have nothing to do, you can go back to the cave first." Elder Ma turned around and said.
"Yes, disciple, resign!"
"Wait!"
As soon as Yao An took a few steps back, Elder Ma seemed to have remembered something again, and said: "There are only three days left for the sect. It’s the ‘Corpse Fighting Conference’. By then all the Qi Refining disciples of your generation will "Are you ready to participate?" "Corpse fighting conference?" Liang Yan was shocked when he heard that the Gu technique he had learned temporarily was only an entry-level one, and he could only control Yao An to make some simple responses and responses. Movements, if you want to control him to use his magical powers to fight with others, don't even think about it!
However, the deal is now done, so Liang Yan naturally cannot reveal his secret at this moment, so he can only control Yao An to step forward and answer:
"Disciple, do your best!"
"Hmph!" Elder Ma looked him up and down, and said with some disapproval: "You still only have two lowest-level iron corpses, how can you compete with your peers? Brothers fighting? Forget it, since you are of my blood, I have a bottle of The corpse oil from the bronze corpse can at least increase the power of your iron corpse by 20%. Apply it to the iron corpse. Don’t embarrass me then!”
“Yes!”
Yao An stepped forward and took a vial from Elder Ma's hand. Then he thanked him profusely and left with Liang Yan.
Just as Liang Yan and Yao An said goodbye to Elder Ma, they were in a certain stone room in the tomb of the dead.
The square-faced old man in a purple robe was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, but he didn't look like he was practicing, but seemed to be meditating on something.
At this moment, the door of the stone chamber suddenly opened, and then a short, middle-aged man with ordinary appearance walked in. This person did not say a word after entering the door, but stood silently behind the old man, as if he did not dare to disturb his thinking.
After a while, the old man in purple robe slowly opened his eyes and asked the person behind him:
"Have you found out?"
"Found it out. The middle-aged man nodded and said, "In the past ten days, only Yao An has entered the sect."
"Yao An." The old man in purple robe narrowed his eyes and murmured: "I remember this is a person under Ma Quan."
"What Protector Yu said is true, this person belongs to Ma Quan. "The middle-aged man replied in a low voice again.
"Ma Quan. Hehe, he is a member of Yuwenshou's lineage. The tomb owner is about to be released from prison. Could it be that Yuwenshou also has some ideas?"
After hearing this, the middle-aged man stepped forward. He stepped forward and said, "Dragon Protector Yuwen and you have always been at odds with each other. How about I go check this Yao An and see what they are selling in his gourd?" What kind of medicine is that?"
The old man in purple robe was silent for a moment, and then said: "That's fine! You should go find out the details of this Yao An, and be careful not to let others know. Yu Wenshou and the others are obstructing us in secret, so don’t delve too deeply into it, lest it affect our plans.”
"Don't worry Protector Yu, my subordinates will know how to act appropriately!" the middle-aged man nodded.
Liang Yan followed Yao An, crossing several suspension bridges and finally entering a hole in the mountain wall.
After passing the entrance of the cave, the surroundings suddenly became clear, and I saw a vast underground cave. There were many passages around the cave, which seemed to extend in all directions.
"It seems that we have reached the inner area of the Tomb of the Dead." Liang Yan thought to himself.
Yao An led Liang Yan into one of the passages. Not long after, he stopped in front of a stone chamber door. He reached out and took out a black disciple token and placed it on the stone door. In a gap. There was a silent sound immediately from the door of the stone chamber, and then with a flash of inspiration, the stone door was divided into two halves and slowly opened to both sides.
After Liang Yan and the two walked into the stone chamber, Yao An took off the token with his backhand. As the door of the stone chamber closed again, Liang Yan also took off the yellow talisman on his face and sat down directly in front of the stone table.
“Is that ‘Corpse Fighting Conference’ something that all Qi Refining monks in the sect must participate in?” Liang Yan asked.
“Yes!”
Yao An stood beside him with his hands hanging down, still replying expressionlessly.
