Chapter 1201 - 1201 1200 Floating Corpse Inner Canon

Chapter 1201: Chapter 1200 Floating Corpse Inner Canon Chapter 1201: Chapter 1200 Floating Corpse Inner Canon The reason Han Dong chose “Floating Corpse Internal Classic” from the Corpse Collection was mainly due to the keywords provided on the synopsis page— “Floating in the Sky and Hiding in the Ground,” “Transform Strength into Force.”

After experiencing the Floating Island, Dragon Boat, chains, and Corpse Country, Han Dong had a general understanding of this world.

He could basically confirm that Level III Out of Control corresponded to the Boundary of a Mythic Body.

Therefore, the task of capture was set at the second tier of requirements… Han Dong must be able to escape at critical moments, and everything he was doing now was to reduce the chances of being killed after encountering an Uncontrolled One.

The creator of this “Floating Corpse Internal Classic” was the first-ever Cabinet Grand Academician of Corpse Country.

Throughout his life, he authored a vast number of literary works and national governance programs… but this “Floating Corpse Internal Classic” was his only work that involved cultivation.

The method of its creation did not adhere to the general guidelines of a Corpse Collection but was written according to his own creative style and subjective ideas.

Because Du Zhijing held an extremely high position at that time, almost second only to none, this “Floating Corpse Internal Classic,” which did not conform to the standards of the Ministry of Officials, was also included in the Corpse Collection at his request without any amendments.

However, over the past several hundred years.

Due to the first part of this book, which explained the “Floating Corpse Way” that Du Zhijing realized through an extremely large amount of text.

Also, it used a plethora of abstruse words and contexts for expression, with no illustrations about cultivation to accompany the descriptions, making it frighteningly difficult to read.

Once you skipped the initial explanatory chapters, you could not proceed with subsequent cultivation.

This led to nobody giving up midway and switching to cultivate other Corpse Collections.

The core concept of this book was “Floating Corpse.”

According to the beginning claim, one must understand this concept before proceeding with subsequent cultivation.

Such a book that was three times thicker than ordinary Corpse Collections was meticulously stored in Han Dong’s mind, word for word.

After being imprisoned in the dungeon, Han Dong immersed himself in reading the “Floating Corpse Internal Classic.”

Indeed.

In the beginning, even a top scholar like Han Dong found it very difficult to read.

The thinking of Academician Du was like a wild horse running through the sky, sometimes jumping to a story that had no lead-in or even no connection to the previous text, and yet some details or concepts in these stories were linked to a concept midway through.

However, in his lifetime as a professor, Han Dong had also served as a reviewer for some top-level journals.

Some manuscripts that involved entirely new concepts were equally hard to understand, requiring one to integrate one’s thoughts into the concepts constructed by the contributors in order to fully understand what they wanted to explain.

Slowly.

Han Dong picked out every concept point, story, and the conceptual words given during Du Zhijing’s creative period, and reassembled and read them through a method of connecting the dots.

In this way, he finally entered the “Floating Corpse System” constructed by Academician Du.

“Unbelievable! In a world backdrop similar to the Qing dynasty, there was such a scholar capable of perceiving the universe… The so-called Floating Corpse is a concept that connects oneself with a fluid universe.

It’s similar to the feeling that a Black Vortex Trunk could adapt and accept everything.”

When Han Dong opened his eyes again, it was the tenth day since he had been imprisoned in the dungeon.

There might have been some sleep in-between, but Han Dong had no recollection of it.

During these ten days, Han Dong himself made no progress and still belonged to the category of a White Zombie, but he fully understood the initial content of the “Floating Corpse Internal Classic.”

However.

Just as Han Dong stood up, he suddenly felt an unusual lightness in his zombie body, even having a sensation as if he was about to float on his own.

“What’s going on? I clearly haven’t started entering the cultivation phase yet… Could it be that I’m about to die from not eating for ten days?”

However, Han Dong really found out later, it was not an illusion nor was he about to die of hunger.

Instead, after fusing his thoughts with the Floating Corpse concepts expressed by Academician Du, Han Dong’s zombie body truly underwent some subtle changes.

Despite being confined in a cell, he felt surrounded by a transparent fluid in which he could slowly float.

“Unbelievable! Such a concept product exists in a low-end world like this?”

The Count within him also exclaimed in astonishment.

During the understanding process, Han Dong deliberately tied his consciousness to the Count’s, learning together.

“Looks like my luck is really good… But I must eat something. Although a zombie’s body has little sensation, if I continue like this, I won’t last long before starving to death.”

Trapped in the dungeon, fresh meals were delivered punctually every day—raw, unprocessed food—[Mice].

Due to not eating for ten days.

The mice that were delivered at different times of the day had already swarmed every corner of the cell, and even a few of the earlier arrivals dared to scamper over Han Dong’s body.

Regardless of how filthy and disgusting mice might appear, they were an essential food in every household in the Corpse Country.

As the “Decree of Corpse Transformation” was implemented nationwide,

Agriculture immediately transformed, with almost all crop cultivation switching to animal husbandry… and among them, mouse farmers accounted for over 50%, due to mice’s blood being proven beneficial for zombie absorption, even valued more than cows, sheep, pigs, and horses.

When in Rome, do as the Romans do.

Without any disdain, Han Dong immediately began his corpse feast.

He devoured all the mice here, swelling his body significantly.

The cultivation that followed might unknowingly take a very long time, so a full belly was essential.

Sitting in the lotus position,

He practiced within his skull.

Not knowing how much time had passed, Han Dong, still in his meditative pose, suddenly floated up.

This scene was precisely seen by the dungeon steward who brought the meal, who immediately went upstairs to report to the [Taoist Master]… The Taoist Master had also given specific instructions to keep an eye on Han Dong, as he didn’t want this young man of dubious identity to just die.

In a room filled with the scent of medicinal herbs and “corpse oil.”

The Taoist Master was conducting a special alchemy ritual, using not only ordinary medicinal ingredients but also the skin of different types of zombies, processed with “corpse oil.”

“Master, that White Zombie you told me to keep an eye on showed some abnormalities today.

He didn’t eat at all for the first ten days he was locked up.

All of a sudden, one day, he devoured all the accumulated mice and maintained the lotus position for half a month… Today, he suddenly floated up.”

“Floated up?”

The mysterious Taoist Master looked surprised, suddenly recalling his first meeting with Han Dong at the [Book House].

“[Floating Corpse Internal Classic]… Wasn’t this guy short on money at that time? Maybe he used something as a collateral to buy the book.

Impossible. The book authored by Du Zhijing has not been successfully cultivated by anyone in hundreds of years, let alone in such harsh conditions as a dungeon.”

“Master, don’t you find it odd? So much time has passed, and no one has come looking for this White Zombie…”

“Hmm, let me finish refining this batch of elixirs, and then I’ll go down to have a look.”

The enigmatic look of evil laughter spread across the Taoist Master’s face, as he did not take Han Dong seriously at all, and he had already achieved his own objectives.

The [Green Zombie—Zhang Xiliang], who followed Han Dong, had completed the ‘transformation’ within a month of arriving at his residence.

In the alchemy room, a zombie exuding a green aura and with snakes burrowing in and out of its body stood upright in a corner, with a piece of Yellow Talisman Paper stuck to its forehead.
