The prosperity of the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world are all for profit.
The two traps set by Lin ran Rere very simple and straightforward.
It could even be said that they were simple and crude. As long as one was a little more careful, one would be able to see through the doubts.
But even if they could see that this was a trap, these people would still pounce on it without hesitation.
There was nothing else!
It was only for one word, profit!
Once one embarked on the path of cultivation, which part of wealth, law, and land was not profit? Which part did not need profit?
Cultivators comprehended the heavenly secrets and seized the heavenly fortune, which was why they had boundless power and endless lifespan.
Every step forward required a large amount of accumulation and effort, as well as many years of planning and preparation.
And these were all accumulated by a large amount of resources, which was what the cultivators needed the most.
Those who could enter the mystic realm to explore were also here for the benefits left behind by their predecessors.
In fact, they were almost exactly the same as a profession among mortals — Tomb Raider!
The only difference between them was that tomb raiders were conducted in secret, while these cultivators who used the excuse of exploring the mystic realm came openly!
They were all here for the benefits. Therefore, Lin Ran’s not-so-brilliant traps will always be effective against them because they had no choice. Even if they knew that this was a trap, they still had to step into it.
Unless they didn’t want those benefits, but was it possible?
…
“Be careful, there is a high possibility that something will appear in this area…”
Lu Tie swallowed back his words as soon as they reached his throat.
Because there was no need to be careful.
“Coffins? And there are a total of ten coffins?!”
Everyone saw the coffins at the end of the cave. There were a total of ten coffins.
In other words, there was a high chance that there were ten zombies inside.
If it was before, they would definitely take a detour and not dare to stay here for even half a second.
This was because zombies were born with boundless strength. Moreover, their bodies were as hard as iron, not inferior to body refining cultivators at all.
There were only five of them. They were not a match for them at all.
But now…
“There are at least three hundred spirit stones, and each one of them is of excellent quality!”
Everyone’s gaze had long since shifted away from the coffins and landed on the spirit stones on the surrounding stone walls.
“Three hundred spirit stones are enough for me to buy all the materials needed to enter the blood refinement realm, and I’ll still be rich!”
Everyone’s eyes were wide open.
Three hundred spirit stones was a huge sum of money even for the disciples of the three great sects, let alone rogue cultivators like them.
In their entire lives, they had never seen so many spirit stones placed before their eyes. In an instant, everyone’s eyes were mesmerized by these spirit stones, completely ignoring the threat posed by the ten coffins.
“It looks like Lu Tie and the others will stop here.”
Outside the mystic realm, White Bone Taoist and the others couldn’t help but shake their heads when they saw this scene.
“Lord White Bone Taoist, there seems to be something different about these coffins? Although our Blood Fiend sect is a fiendish cultivator, we have never been proficient in corpse-rearing techniques, so we don’t recognize this item.”
The Blood Fiend sect leader looked at the coffin in the mirror. Its entire body was pitch-black like ink, and it gave off a faint crystalline feeling.
It was clearly not an ordinary item. He vaguely remembered seeing this item in the sect’s ancient records, but he had felt that it was useless to him at the time, so he hadn’t paid it much attention. Now, he truly couldn’t remember it at all.
“This object is called a corpse-raising coffin. It’s a coffin that corpse-raising demonic cultivators use to cultivate zombies.”
Priest White Bones Taoist only mentioned it slightly and didn’t continue.
After all, they weren’t corpse-raising demonic cultivators. This thing was completely useless to them.
However, there were a few demonic cultivators carrying coffins below. When they heard the words ‘corpse-raising coffin’, their spirits were immediately jolted.
Among them, the slightly older devil cultivator who was carrying two coffins, one big and one small, blurted out in excitement, “Could this be the corpse-raising coffins recorded in master’s will?!”
The surrounding cultivators all looked at them when they heard this.
“Aren’t these the three Zhao Brothers?”
“It is said that these three Zhao brothers were originally mortals. They met a corpse-raising devil cultivator who was on the verge of death in the mountain forest and obtained his inheritance. Only then did they set foot on the path of cultivators.”
“Corpse-raising demonic cultivators, the stronger the corpse they raise, the stronger the feedback they receive from the corpse. They completely rely on their own corpses to raise their cultivation. I heard that the three brothers haven’t made any progress for ten years because they couldn’t raise better zombies.”
“No wonder there are so few corpse-raising demonic cultivators. Isn’t this too much of a restriction?”
…
The far north was only such a large area, and there weren’t many cultivators to begin with.
Thus, most of them were acquaintances.
The three Zhao brothers were also rare corpse-rearing demonic cultivators, so they were quickly recognized.
“Corpse-rearing coffins are made of at least a hundred-year-old thunderbolt-struck locust wood and Yin-gathering stones. If the locust wood doesn’t die after being struck by lightning, it will turn into ghost wood, which can contain a large amount of Yin energy. The Yin-gathering stones can even absorb yin energy, turning the coffins into a place of extreme Yin. It’s the best choice for corpse-rearing!”
The boss of the Zhao family, who had spoken earlier, was now looking at the ten coffins in the mirror with an infatuated expression.
When the surrounding cultivators heard this, they were all moved.
“Whether it’s the hundred-year-old thunderstruck locust tree or the Yin gathering stone, these are all good things!”
“As expected of the Demon Ancestor. Just a few coffins thrown on the ground are worth quite a lot!”
“Extreme Yin objects. Doesn’t that mean that we ghost breeders can also use extreme Yin cultivation techniques?”
For a moment, many people who felt that the corpse-raising coffins were useful to them or were confident in their own strength began to become restless, wanting to test their own abilities.
At this moment, Lu Tie and the others seemed to be ready to take action.
“Most of these coffins contain zombies. have any of us learned the orthodox methods of Taoism?”
The orthodox immortal cultivators did not necessarily belong to Taoism. Only in the extremely distant immemorial era, when they came out of the Purple Cloud Taoist Palace and established their orthodoxy, could those sects that spread their branches or those who received the legacies of these sects be considered to be Taoists.
The members of the Taoist sect were far better at dealing with evil and filth than ordinary cultivators, which was why Lu Tie had asked this question.
“I’ve learned a bit of the heaven and earth purification spell of the Taoist sect. I’ll cast a spell to suppress these zombies to prevent them from rising up. You guys take this opportunity to take the spirit stones as soon as possible.”
Lu Tie had just asked casually, but he didn’t expect that there would really be such a thing. He was instantly overjoyed.
“Sister, don’t worry. As long as you take the spirit stones, I’ll leave a big one for you!”
Lu Tie didn’t even call her a fellow Taoist anymore.
“Okay.”
The female cultivator dressed as a Taoist nun nodded and came to the front of the ten coffins. The rest of the people hurriedly went to take the spirit stones on the stone walls.
However, they only stretched out their hands, and didn’t even take the spirit stones down.
The ten corpse-raising coffins let out roars in unison, and at the same time, they were still trembling non-stop.
Everyone’s expression immediately changed. weren’t these zombies a little too savage?
They had just moved, and they were already going to raise their corpses?
It was as if they were waiting for them!
Lu Tie immediately shouted, “Hurry up!”
“Raise your corpses!!”
