Chapter 250: Chapter 248: Tours Army and Demon Court_1
There are many legends about zombies in folklore, but for the Cultivation World, these unconventional cultivators unite their souls and bodies through a unique process to gain immense power.
As a result, they cannot enter the cycle of reincarnation.
The method that David changed into is not really about cultivating as a zombie, but using the essence of a demon clan as a medicinal catalyst to turn his own body into a "zombie-like" state while his body and soul remain separate.
Whether the prohibition placed on David’s soul can still work after the fusion of soul and body into one... can only be determined through actual manipulation.
There are two possibilities: first, the prohibition directly erupts when the soul and body fuse, annihilating David’s soul.
The second is the prohibition’s dissolution, and the soul fuses smoothly with the body.
Owen Bertram guessed it would be the latter because the method of cultivating zombies is a direction of the "Great Path"! Though no historical records of a zombie cultivator ascending exist in the history of the Four Seas and Eight Desolations, the "Great Path" is what it is - the method of cultivating zombies holds a high position in the entire cultivation system.
While the method of soul-prohibition is sinister and ruthless, Owen naturally sided with the Great Path method when faced against it.
David nodded in agreement, placed both hands on the Golden Coffin, and activated it with his spiritual energy. Suddenly, he looked at Owen and said, "I always feel that you asked me to do this because you’re lazy."
Owen glared at him, "I’m the master here, isn’t it ridiculous for me to do the work while you, the servant, watch from the sidelines?"
David smirked: As you can see, embarrassed and angry after being exposed, he twists the logic to justify himself.
Then he felt he played himself: What’s the point of exposing him? It just got me scolded for doing the work.
Using the full power of the Fifth Great Realm to activate the Tire-5 Magic Weapon Golden Coffin, he transformed a fool from the Third Great Boundary from a fake zombie into a real one.
The process was incredibly fast!
Owen Bertram strolled around with his hands behind his back, occasionally looking up at the night sky or kicking a stone with his toes. Though he seemed relaxed, he was restless in his heart.
David’s life or death didn’t matter - this man who dared to collude with the demon clan and hide earthenware jars deserves to die!
But the secret that came to light might cause turbulence in the Wood Dynasty...
Owen already had some guesses in his mind; the only thing left was for David to confirm them. Regardless of whether the specific details needed confirmation, there are influential figures within the Imperial Court secretly colluding with the demon clan!
"Sigh..." Owen sighed softly, feeling a sense of injustice for Adonis Dunn and Abner Lane who had exerted their utmost effort to save the Wood Dynasty and prevent a chaotic catastrophe that would lead to a tragic loss of lives. Yet those high-ranking figures in the court were only concerned about their own interests and completely unscrupulous in their actions!
Before dawn, David took his hands off the Golden Coffin and said to Owen, "It’s done."
Since it was successful, it meant the soul-prohibition had been broken.
David suddenly had an idea, "This is a new way to break the soul-prohibition!" Owen waved his hand: "David only cultivated that special method first, so the transformation into a zombie went smoothly. It may not work for someone else."
But David still felt, "We can study it further following this line of thought."
Owen didn’t disagree, but he was more concerned about David at the moment. He looked at the sky and said to David, "You go back first and control your men; I’ll return after interrogating David."
The military officers would surely search anxiously once they woke up and didn’t see Owen and David.
"Alright." David turned and left.
Owen opened the coffin, and David inside opened his eyes. His eyes had turned the bloody red of a zombie, and many connections between him and the Golden Coffin allowed the coffin to control him completely.
Only those who wielded the Golden Coffin could see this kind of "connection," like invisible threads.
Owen’s first question was a probing one, "Who is the big shot backing you?"
David tried to open his mouth but couldn’t say anything. Although the effect of the soul-prohibition had been suppressed, it seemed to still resist, preventing David from mentioning the name.
Owen saw a murky shade of darkness appear in his blood-red eyes, as the two forces clashed. Eventually, the red overcame the darkness, and David spoke with difficulty, "Lord IIias, General of the Martial Mansion and the Commander of the Tours Army in the Northwest!"
Owen gritted his teeth and couldn’t say a word for a long time.
The Tours Army is the main force of the Wood Dynasty stationed in the Northwest, defending against the Nine Witch Demon Court! The Martial Mansion is similar to an Inner Cabinet for civil officials and a unique agency of the Wood Dynasty. Its position is equivalent to that of the Inner Cabinet scholars in the government! Lord IIias is even the current Emperor’s uncle!
Such an influential figure certainly had the ability to mobilize a top-tier Sixth Great Realm expert and easily collude with the Demon Clan!
"Why did he do this?" Owen felt choked and uneasy as he asked the second question.
"Lord IIias has great ambitions and has always believed that the Emperor is incompetent and lacking in morals. He wants to replace him."
Owen shook his head repeatedly. First Prince Henry and then Lord IIias - when the Wood Dynasty was established, The Great Ancestor Emperor had granted these princes territories, thinking that family members guarding the realm would be more reliable than foreign officials and generals; little did he realize that these power-wielding relatives would conspire to take the throne.
And they stopped at nothing to achieve their goals.
"What is Lord IIias’ specific plan for Casterly County?"
By this time, the zombie cultivation method had completely suppressed the soul-prohibition, and David spoke more fluently, "Several months ago, an envoy from Lord IIias came to me, promising all kinds of benefits and asking me to join his ranks, cooperating with his plans in Casterly County."
"Casterly County is an ancient place called ’Dragon Palace’, where the ancient Dragon Palace Battle took place."
"The human hero Marco and the demon sage Ming Solomon fought here. In the end, the Marco Clan perished, Ming Solomon returned triumphantly, leading the demon clan to prosper for nine thousand years, and the human race lagged behind for exactly nine thousand years!"
"The Nine Witch Demon Court’s ancestor was Ming Solomon. They found Lord IIias and planned to excavate the ancient battlefield of Casterly County to find a lost Demon Clan sacred artifact from Ming Solomon’s battle."
"Lord IIias also verified that during the Marco Clan’s era, all races practiced the method of bloodline refining. Even though many outstanding individuals of the Marco Clan perished, their bodies are still valuable treasure materials, and there might even be some ancient human sacred artifacts!"
"Lord IIias promised that as long as he succeeded, he would share a pot of Sacred Blood with me. I changed my cultivation technique, using the essence of the Demon Clan as a medicinal guide to start anew - and when I switch it to Sacred Blood again, I can easily break through to the Fourth Great Realm and progress unhindered until the Sixth Great Realm!"
