The Demonic Cultivator In Zombie World novel Chapter 148

Upon hearing White Water's words, the cultivators present all began to scheme quietly.

Compared to the imminent war between the Hundred Refinement Sect and the Heaven Burning Sect, the bounty from Feather Transformation Heaven Palace was far more enticing.

Possessing the corpses of three Nascent Soul cultivators, what more could they worry about? They could even disregard the Hundred Refinement Sect and the Heaven Burning Sect, striding boldly across the entire Mystic Azure Star!

Moreover, the Nascent Soul ancestors of the Heaven Burning Sect and the Hundred Refinement Sect, upon learning of this bounty, would likely slow their war efforts to focus entirely on capturing Shang Tianjue and Shang Xingchen.

Chu Xuan harbored some thoughts on this matter as well. But they were just thoughts. He did not believe that Shang Tianjue and Shang Xingchen, who had resurrected, would be easy to kill.

If they could emerge from underground ruins and survive across five centuries, it indicated they certainly had powerful backing. Excessive greed might well lead to fatal consequences.

Rather than the bounty from Feather Transformation Heaven Palace, Chu Xuan found White Water's identity more intriguing. If this bounty was directly issued by Feather Transformation Heaven Palace to the Nascent Soul ancestors of various sects across Mystic Azure Star, how could a Golden Core cultivator like him be aware of it?

However, Chu Xuan only pondered these thoughts. The twelve Golden Cores present were each exceptional and of unknown background. His greatest reliance was his body refined through thirty layers, making him capable of defeating any one of them in single combat, but at the cost of exposing some of his secrets and possibly sustaining injuries.

Chu Xuan never engaged in acts that were more trouble than they were worth.

The trading continued.

When it was Chu Xuan's turn, he produced a small bottle. "Qi-Binding Dust. Once inhaled, it prevents the target from using their internal Spiritual Qi and from absorbing Spiritual Qi from the environment. Effective against Golden Core cultivators. Six thousand small spiritual stones per bottle. If anyone has a Thunder attribute serpent demon core from the Foundation Establishment stage, I am willing to purchase it at a high price."

This Qi-Binding Dust was a poison he had acquired from the "Venom Scripture." After much consideration, it was the only item he felt safe to trade. The other poisons he possessed were too potent; trading them might bring unnecessary trouble upon himself.

As for magical tools, elixirs, and talismans, most were suited only for Foundation Establishment cultivators and were not worthy of offering here.

Chu Xuan already had the antidote for the Qi-Binding Dust, which was why he dared to offer it in the trade.

"I'll take it," Black Chess's eyes sparkled as he spoke, "I happen to have three demon cores that meet your requirements. We can discuss the trade in private later."

Chu Xuan nodded slightly.

None of the other offerings caught his eye. He only found the Golden Core mid-grade spiritual sense secret technique appealing, but he had already condensed the Soul Core, granting him immense spiritual strength. Even a lower-grade Golden Core technique like the "Soul Piercing Needle" could be immensely powerful in his hands.

As for magic treasures and elixirs, they were even less appealing. His physical body was now comparable to a mid-grade magic treasure. Unless someone offered a superior-grade magic treasure, he was not even interested in looking.

Stolen from its rightful author, this tale is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

Regarding elixirs, only those with special properties could be of some use to him. He disregarded elixirs that enhanced the Golden Core stage.

With an abundance of Yin Evil Qi and blood honey, he had no need for such cultivation-boosting elixirs.

Instead, he was interested in elixirs that could help his corpse puppet or ghost breakthrough bottlenecks.

Hu, since merging with his spirit root and consuming the corpses of Golden Core cultivators, had rapidly ascended to the level of a ninth-grade corpse general.

Unfortunately, he seemed to be at a bottleneck, unable to condense a corpse core and advance to the rank of corpse commander.

Suddenly, another person spoke, "I have information on the Nether Dao Sect that might be useful in finding Shang Tianjue and Shang Xingchen."

At this statement, the eyebrows of the Golden Core cultivators present all raised, though none immediately spoke up to buy the information.

Chu Xuan glanced at the speaker, whose codename was Deep Sea.

"I'm somewhat interested; let's hear it," said Jian Yitong with a few strange laughs.

"I am also interested, name your price," Sky Stone added.

Deep Sea held up five fingers, "This information has some value, but not a lot—three thousand small spiritual stones should suffice."
