Chapter 116 - 96: The Dugu Family Patriarch! Another Copper Corpse! A Great Harvest!

With a loud roar, Lin Chang’sheng’s loft exploded into pieces in an instant, shards of wood flying everywhere!

Hundreds of Qi Swords dissipated.

The middle-aged man shot skyward, hair a tangled mess, looking worse for wear.

A skull appeared at his feet, crystal clear and about three feet across. Dark mist swirled in its eye sockets, unleashing a torrent of evil aura!

The middle-aged man waved his hand, and a gleaming white thigh bone appeared. With a surge of magical power, the bone swelled to over ten zhang long, crashing straight toward Yu Lingfei!

Yu Lingfei flicked her finger, and Sword Qi and magic instantly tangled with the middle-aged man in a fierce clash!

Yu Lingfei’s cultivation was also at the Early Foundation Establishment Stage—same as the middle-aged man—but her magical power was pure and powerful. The middle-aged man was clearly getting outclassed!

"Roar!"

Suddenly, the man waved his hand, summoning a yellowish Copper Corpse!

This Copper Corpse’s head was covered in matted yellow hair, claws and fangs bared, as it threw a punch at Yu Lingfei. Its speed was so fast it screamed through the air!

"Copper Corpse! This guy’s from the Corpse King Sect! He’s being hunted by Yu Lingfei and actually tried to hide in my loft!?"

Lin Chang’sheng stared in shock at the middle-aged man standing atop a skull-shaped spiritual artifact.

Using a skull as a spiritual artifact to step on—now that’s some next-level weird shit.

If the original owner of that skull knew their head would be turned into a spiritual artifact after death, wonder how they’d feel?

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

The Corpse King Sect cultivator summoned his Foundation Establishment Copper Corpse but couldn’t turn the tides; Yu Lingfei threw even stronger spells at him, magic pounding down until the Corpse King Sect cultivator was pushed onto the back foot again!

Just then, a streak of sword light shot over—the companion of Yu Lingfei!

Shhk!

The Corpse King Sect cultivator was never a match for Yu Lingfei. Instantly, the female cultivator from the Yanyue Immortal Sect pierced his left shoulder with Sword Aura, while Yu Lingfei enveloped him with another magical attack!

Rumble!

The earth trembled!

The Corpse King Sect Foundation Establishment cultivator was blasted straight into the ground!

Lin Chang’sheng’s loft vanished on the spot.

The spot where the loft had stood was now a crater two zhang deep and five zhang wide!

The Corpse King Sect middle-aged cultivator lay at the bottom, bones shattered, blood at the corner of his mouth, eyes glassy and dazed, basically done for. His skull spiritual artifact was blown in half, tossed at the bottom of the pit.

At the same time—

The Copper Corpse, out of the middle-aged man’s control, stood stupidly at the pit’s edge. Yu Lingfei’s Foundation Establishment companion swept past with her sword, slicing off an arm and slashing open its chest; its organs were exposed, but no blood trickled out!

"Senior Sister, we finally got rid of him!"

Fu Qingyu looked at the dead Corpse King Sect disciple and let out a sigh of relief.

"Yeah! He really deserved it! He’d stashed over a hundred corpse puppets in his storage bag!"

Yu Lingfei reached out, grabbing the middle-aged man’s storage bag. A touch of divine sense, and her pretty face turned ice-cold, fury in her glare.

These hundred-plus corpse puppets had all been cultivators, turned into walking corpses by this Corpse King Sect bastard.

"Alchemist Zhang Han, sorry about this—we were hunting down a Corpse King Sect Foundation Establishment demon cultivator and trashed your elixir shop. These spirit stones are compensation for the damages and clean-up, if that’s alright with you?"

Yu Lingfei glanced apologetically at Lin Chang’sheng standing at the edge of the pit, beautiful eyes showing a hint of guilt. She flicked out a storage bag, floating it over to him.

"You two are ridding the world of evil—I admire you both!"

"These spirit stones are more than enough to rebuild!"

Lin Chang’sheng sent his divine sense into the bag, discovering three hundred spirit stones inside. He nodded immediately and cupped his fist in thanks.

"Then I’ll leave this to you, Alchemist Zhang. We still have demon cultivators to hunt. We’ll be going now!"

Yu Lingfei nodded toward Lin Chang’sheng, cupping her fist in farewell.

"Farewell!"

Lin Chang’sheng also nodded with a cupped fist.

Yu Lingfei gave a flick of her wrist, casting a Fireball Technique at the Foundation Establishment Copper Corpse; it instantly went up in flames. She and Fu Qingyu then flew off on their swords.

"Damn... a Foundation Establishment Copper Corpse, just burned up like that."

Lin Chang’sheng’s heart ached at the loss, but he couldn’t just ask for it outright—after all, that would look bad since it’s demon cultivator stuff. He could only stare as the Copper Corpse blazed.

Thing is—

Would a broken Foundation Establishment Copper Corpse even merge with his own Copper Corpse?

That’s not something you run into every day.

Yu Lingfei quickly vanished into the clouds. Lin Chang’sheng immediately kicked up a pile of dirt to snuff the flames. Only half of the corpse was burnt—the other half remained. Without hesitation, he stashed it in his storage bag.

"Hell yeah!"

"A Foundation Establishment Copper Corpse! Wonder if the damaged part will merge with mine? And that busted spiritual artifact—does that still work?"

"Plus a Foundation Establishment cultivator corpse! I could refine that one into a Copper Corpse and do some fusing!"

Lin Chang’sheng watched Yu Lingfei fly away, then waved his hand, storing the Foundation Establishment Copper Corpse, the dead middle-aged cultivator, and the broken skull, all into his storage bag.

Feeling very satisfied inside.

This time, getting caught up in Yu Lingfei’s hunt for demon cultivators, he really made a killing!

Lin Chang’sheng hadn’t spent a single spirit stone. The Wang and Jiang families had already dispatched people to bulldoze and rebuild the loft area.

"Time to find a place and see if this fusion will work!"

Half an hour later, Lin Chang’sheng walked out of Celestial Lake Marketplace, sprinting toward the Celestial Spirit Mountain Range. He was off to the cave where he’d secluded himself before, planning to refine the Corpse King Sect Foundation Establishment cultivator’s flesh into a Copper Corpse!

After that, he’d see if three Copper Corpses could be merged into a Level 2 Copper Corpse!

"You guys waiting just for me?"

Suddenly, Lin Chang’sheng narrowed his eyes at the road ahead—three people had appeared ten zhang in front of him.
