Chu Xuan surveyed the Zombie Matriarch from his elevated position and stated coolly, "Your duty is to produce castrated versions of minor zombies. These diminutive creatures neither feed nor move; they are devoid of thought. They shall serve as the soil of this farm, understand?"
The Zombie Matriarch nodded vigorously. Having endured the prior battle, it had completely abandoned any thoughts of resistance. Survival was its only concern now, and it was willing to do whatever was necessary.
Soon, sufficiently nourished, the Zombie Matriarch began to lay eggs at full capacity. One by one, the zombie eggs were carefully placed into pits by the corpse puppets. After four to five days, the eggs would hatch.
The flesh of the lesser zombies would then become a nurturing ground for spiritual plants. Thus, plants like Earth Evil Fruit and Blood Fang Fruit could be mass-produced. The strength of the corpse puppets under Chu Xuan's command would also rapidly advance. Moreover, each time a young zombie was drained of energy by the spiritual plants and died, he would gain a measure of merit.
Chu Xuan stood on the rooftop, looking over the thriving zombie farm, a satisfied smile playing on his lips.
"This is what should be done!"
Soon, he entered the Yin Evil Soul-Snatching Array and sat down to commence the refinement of the Blood Evil Shadows.
The key to crafting the Blood Evil Shadows was a painstaking effort. It required both blood essence and Yin Evil Qi.
Chu Xuan estimated that it might take another year to fully refine three Blood Evil Shadows. Fortunately, he was located on this planet, where time flowed at only one-tenth the rate of Mystic Azure Realm. Although two years had passed here, only just over two months had elapsed in the Mystic Azure Realm.
For a cultivator, a little over two months of cultivation was but the blink of an eye. What did a bit more time matter?
Time passed day by day.
Chu Xuan's daily tasks were simple. By day, he refined the Earth Evil Pills and other such medicines; by night, he worked on the Blood Evil Shadows.
One year later, Chu Xuan was still seated within the Yin Evil Soul-Snatching Array. His shadow stretched long and seemed to contain some bizarre, sinister spirit.
"The third Blood Evil Shadow is also refined. With this, I now have thrice the means to withstand lethal attacks. Often, I can rely on the Blood Evil Shadows to trade injury for injury, life for life."
Chu Xuan revealed a satisfied smile.
At that moment, three roars echoed from not far away. It was Long, Hu, and Bao. Feeling the end of Chu Xuan's cultivation, they immediately rushed over from various locations.
Before long, the trio stood before Chu Xuan. Each of the three distinct corpse puppets now exuded an exceptionally formidable aura.
Long, a bald brute was robust in stature. Skilled in both physical combat and spellcraft, he was equally formidable in either arena, a true dual adept of magic and close combat.
Hu, a towering giant, was even larger than Long. A true behemoth like a tank.
Bao, lean and gaunt, was enveloped in a faint black glow. He resembled a dagger walking through the night, ever ready to harvest the lives of his enemies.

However, the rat tail hanging from his mouth, not yet fully swallowed, somewhat dimmed the sharpness of this nocturnal blade, lending him a slightly foolish air.
"No more junk food," Chu Xuan scolded.
Bao hastily spat out the rat tail and shrank his neck to show he understood.
