Formation Core
Four Spirit Severing Realm yin corpses and more sporting shrivelled eyeballs, dented eye sockets and missing flesh, this is just not my day, Mu Yu thought.
As he crept toward where the voice originated, Mu Yu discovered that there was a dark-green light faintly flashing where his luminous pearl’s gleam couldn’t reach. The four Spirit Severing Realm yin corpses stood guard at the dark-green light and ground their teeth.
“Put out that foreign object!” That was the screechy voice again.
The yin corpses charged toward Wood Spirit Sword. Mu Yu’s plan to dig into the ground and run didn’t work as some sort of energy prevented him from doing so.
“I couldn’t hit you lot up on the surface, but you don’t scare me down here!”
Wood Spirit Sword converted into a whip and went wild on the yin corpses. The death qi infesting the sword left black whip marks on the yin corpses, a sign of death qi infiltrating their bodies. Mu Yu performed flowers and a variety of other motions, using attack as a means of defence. They didn’t seem to have any concept of fear, judging from their indifference to their comrades being whipped apart.
“Does their reattachment ability not work down here? They aren’t able to reattach their heads no matter how they try here,” Mu Yu realised. “There’s no end to this!”
Mu Yu was on the back foot. When he sneaked a glance over to the passageway he came via, it was no longer there. Suddenly, he couldn’t swing his whip again. He turned back and brayed, “Crap! Why did a Spirit Severing Realm corpse have to catch it of all yin corpses?!”
Owing to the Spirit Severing Realm corpse’s aura, the others started to grow more aggressive. Cornered, Mu Yu had to draw Shadow Splitter Sword. His slash wiped out a wave. Nevertheless, it only made room for the next wave. Next, a Spirit Severing Realm corpse tried to blast his head with a punch!
“Take this: Super Wood Technique, Ubiquitous Leaves!”
Mu Yu spawned countless branches from Wood Spirit Sword and turned them into a big tree next to him, forcing away the yin corpses with the growing tree. Interestingly, the leaves were green, but the tree trunk was black.
Boom! A Spirit Severing Realm yin corpse rocked the tree and snapped branches with a ram of its fist. The tree branches immediately grew sprouts and mummified the yin corpse.
“You ready to let go yet?!” Mu Yu spawned branches from Wood Spirit Sword and restrained the Spirit Severing Realm yin corpse clutching his whip.
The yin corpses turned their focus to Mu Yu’s tree. Branches grew from the tree to restrain and hang them upside down as they tried to attack it. Two Spirit Severing Realm yin corpses were able to break free thanks to their superior brute strength. Alas, Mu Yu almost instantly chained them again since they lacked the intelligence to strategically assail him.
On its own, Wood Spirit Sword was extremely robust. Once it morphed into plants, unfortunately, it was only as sturdy as the plant it took on the form of. To cover that only weakness, it relied on speed to rapidly grow.
Those suspended in the air struggled fruitlessly. The death qi in them grew more and more prominent until they were incapacitated.
“I reckon I can control these yin corpses.” Mu Yu approached a Primordial Infant Realm former-human yin corpse. The corpse was missing half of its teeth, and it hand five finger holes in its forehead. “Smile?”
The yin corpse lost another tooth when it smiled.
“Raise your head.”
The yin corpse raised its head.
“You found yourself a treasure! Death qi can turn them into your puppets thanks to dark herb!” exclaimed Xiaoshuai.
“What sort of treasure is so disgusting? You’re enough to disgust me,” argued the dragon vine.
“Since I look better than you, you must be gag-inducing ugly.”
“Stop! Let’s talk after we deal with the one controlling them, okay?”
“Why aren’t you lot moving?! Drats! Where did all these trees come from?!”
“If you haven’t noticed, I’m now the boss of the formation. Be a good boy and surrender now!”
“Keke, how can you control it when I, the controller of the formation core, am still alive?!” The green dot of light beamed, but it didn’t work.
“So you’re the one pulling the strings. Basically, you just told me that killing you would give me the admin rights to the formation.” As Mu Yu strolled over, trees grew next to him, catching all of the yin corpses that were too slow.
“Forty-two Spirit Severing Realm cultivators have trespassed in the last few millenniums; however, they became my puppets before they could even set foot in my city. I’m curious how you’re able to control my formation as a Body Severing Realm cultivator.”
“Because we’re handsome! Beat it!” Xiaoshuai asserted.
The green light shone brighter and brighter, revealing the enormous cave that could’ve housed twenty thousand yin corpses easily.
The green light revealed itself to be the size of a human being, dark silhouette resembling a horse. Its hooves gradually transformed to mimic human limbs. He was a man with black hair, a scowl, fangs and a muscular build. He had no skin colour for he was transparent; he was a fiend soul.
“I’m a guru on fiend soul extermination,” answered Mu Yu.
“Coincidentally, I’m also a guru on human extermination.” The fiend soul feared neither Mu Yu nor the trees.
Xiaoshuai climbed onto Mu Yu’s head. “Question: are you a pig fiend? You resemble a pig from head to toe.”
“I will rip your insolent mouth off your face! I am Desert Eagle Fiend King’s left guardian, Xiang Ma.”
“Xiang Ma? No, you don’t resemble a horse. You resemble a pig,” Xiaoshuai sincerely responded, mixing up the “xiang” of “resemble” and “item”.
“Pfft!”
Snubbed, Xiang Ma called two Spirit Severing Realm yin corpses to him. He dove into one of the former human’s bodies, recreating the corpse’s original appearance, and spawned a jet-black axe to his hand.
