I have Immortality In The Cultivation World

"Eh?"

Zhou Yi exclaimed in surprise. Once he was sure the Spirit Corpse had seen through him, he revealed himself.

"You’re not the Heavenly Evil One? In this world, only the Golden Corpse Demon Lord can see through my art!"

"Hehehe! I have long heard of the Daoist friend’s name, the first Golden Elixir True Monarch between heaven and earth after the era’s change. Seeing you today, you are indeed extraordinary."

The Golden Corpse admitted his identity directly, his entire body covered in black armor, with only two pupils visible on his face, and his voice emanating directly from within his body.

Zhou Yi recalled the books about the Heavenly Corpse Sect and said slowly.

"It’s rumored that the Heavenly Corpse Sect possesses a secret technique of Divine Sense placement, which allows them to transfer their soul into a corpse and control it from thousands of miles away."

"There might be a few in this world who have heard of the Heavenly Corpse Sect, but probably only you, Daoist friend, know even the cultivation techniques."

The Golden Corpse nodded and said, "I have only recently escaped from my seal and am secretly refining a secret technique, which is inconvenient for meeting with Daoist friend for now. Once my practice is successful, I will pay you a visit!"

Continue your adventure at empire

Zhou Yi mocked on purpose, "The records say the Golden Corpse Demon Lord intimidated the Nine Continents, but seeing you today, it seems that the name does not match the reality; instead, it’s a coward."

This old demon’s schemes were as deep as the sea. Theoretically, provocation should have no effect, but it didn’t hurt to give it a try.

At most, there were Golden Elixir True Monarchs in the world today. Even if a Demon Monarch possessed another body and proved to be a Golden Core again, Zhou Yi was confident he could put up a fight.

"That’s just the records being wrong. I am indeed a coward, careful and cautious in everything I do, taking no risks without being absolutely sure."

The Golden Corpse laughed weirdly and said, "The Demon Path is not the same as the Righteous Path. Those Daoists always need some face, only squeezing out a few Spirit Stones. In a Demon Path sect, one careless moment and your bloodline and soul could be refined away by others!"

"I still remember when I first joined the Heavenly Corpse Sect, I had a Yin Vein in me, prime material for refining into a corpse. My master planned to refine me into a Corpse Demon once I reached Core Formation..."

After not speaking for a thousand years and having no living people around after breaking the seal, the Golden Corpse couldn’t help but talk more.

Heaven and earth turned upside down, the sea turned to mulberry fields.

There weren’t many in this world who could understand the Golden Corpse, let alone had the qualification to listen to him speak!

Zhou Yi circulated his mana, various magical treasures revolving within his sleeves. Hundreds of Spirit Talismans protected his body as he asked curiously,

"I have heard that your master is the renowned Crescent Moon Demon Ancestor, with mana reaching the heavens. How did you manage to escape with your life?"

"Hehehe! Daoist friend seems to understand me so well. Such minor details—are they recorded in the books too?"

The Golden Corpse examined Zhou Yi for a moment, sensing his aura carefully, finding no similarity to anyone he had known in his memories, and answered, "The process had some twists and turns, just relied on being a coward, and I finally survived till now."

"As for my master, after my Divinity Transformation, he was the first flying Yaksha I refined!"

Flying Yakshas are a special type of refined corpse with a natural talent for flying and escaping and extremely formidable strength.

Zhou Yi anticipated this and said, "As always, a loving and affectionate Demon Path sect."

"What qualifications do you have to mock me?"

The Golden Corpse sneered, "You’re alive today, having safely passed through the great calamity of Dharma-ending, isn’t it because you sacrificed the blood and souls of your fellow sect members?"

"Immeasurable Heavenly Honored One!"

Zhou Yi declared his Taoist title, neither denying nor admitting.

"Hypocritical Taoist!"

The Golden Corpse’s eyes flashed with mockery, even more convinced that this True Lord Tang must be the reincarnation of some ancient monstrous being, not necessarily a Divine Transformation Heavenly Monarch, but possibly a self-proclaimed Nascent Soul Daoist.

Zhou Yi spoke coldly, "Demon Monarch, if you have summoned me here today, is there something you wish to say?" n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Before coming to capture the Spirit Corpse, he had used divination techniques, and nothing had been amiss, obviously, the Golden Corpse had employed a secret technique as well.

If divination techniques existed in the world, naturally there were countermeasures developed to conceal fate.

The Golden Corpse did not hide anything and said directly, "I have collected much information on you, Daoist friend, and I cannot guess who reincarnated, so I devised a little plan to bring you here to see for myself."

Zhou Yi asked, "Have you figured it out then?"

"Not yet."

The Golden Corpse laughed weirdly, "After reincarnation and possession, the soul’s essence changes, and it’s difficult to determine one’s foundation without a fight."

"Then let’s have a fight!"

Zhou Yi’s mana surged, and the Light Dividing Sword flew out from his sleeve, turning into hundreds of streaks of sword light.

"I am still puzzled, how have you concluded that I am someone’s reincarnation? Could I not simply be a peerless genius of the human race?"

"Hmph! So-called geniuses must also abide by the laws of heaven and earth and bear the shackles of Spiritual Energy."

The Golden Corpse said, "In today’s world, the Golden Core Realm cannot exist, even with a Heavenly Spiritual Root. And yet, Daoist friend, you defy heaven and are about to condense a Golden Core without relying on it!"

Zhou Yi replied, "It’s not just me; there’s also Daoist friend Xiao."

"Xiao Hong? Merely canceling some new techniques, unable to extend life and achieve immortality, does that even qualify as cultivation?"

The Golden Corpse looked down on these new techniques and said, "According to my investigation, on the day Xiao Hong faced tribulation, you were also present. And then there were rumors of a Kunlun immortal lending a hand, it must have been you who actually acted "

"Worthy of being a Demon Monarch."

Zhou Yi nodded slightly, becoming more wary of the Golden Corpse. This demon was not like others—another ancient demon who had lived until now without any advantage in information.

"So what is your opinion about Kunlun Wonderland?"

"Kunlun..."

Upon hearing this, the Golden Corpse paused for a moment and muttered, "I can hardly believe that there could be unknown places in the Nine Continents. Even the Four Divine Beasts’ sanctuaries are mentioned in the books."

"In this Dharma-ending era, Kunlun appears more frequently. It seems to be independent of Spiritual Energy. Could it really be inhabited by immortals?"

"Then the Demon Monarch had better be careful!"

Zhou Yi raised an eyebrow and said, "As far as I know, the Kunlun Immortal Realm favors the human race. Who knows, one day they might hear about demons throwing the world into chaos and personally come to turn you to dust."
