Chapter 35 Blood Sacrifice and Blood Escape
"Ugh..."
Song Wen, who had just returned to the cave, could no longer control himself. His stomach, which had not eaten for a day, was filled with something that was churning.
Song Wen vomited for half an hour, and he felt that he was about to vomit bile, and the feeling of nausea and vomiting was slightly relieved.
He was so tired that he wanted to fall asleep, but the bloody and corpse-like smell on his body made him feel nauseous.
He had to go out and get two buckets of clean water, wash his body, and clean the vomit in the cave, and then fall asleep.
The next day, Song Wen got up very early.
He first went to the canteen for miscellaneous disciples to have breakfast, and then rushed to the corpse-dissecting cave before the morning hour. If he didn't go earlier today, after dissecting 100 corpses, he might not have to go back to the cave to rest, and could directly start dissecting the corpses the next day.
Fortunately, the corpse-dissecting cave is also at the foot of the mountain, not far from where he lives.
He was the first to arrive at the corpse-dissecting cave today.
After getting the corpse from Yuan Cheng, Song Wen couldn't wait to start dissecting the corpse.
At this time, it took him about half an hour to dissect a corpse. When he finished dissecting 100 corpses, more than six hours had passed.
He was still the last person to leave. When he walked out of the corpse dissecting cave, it was dark, just like the day before.
Song Wen returned to the cave, washed himself briefly, and then went to the cafeteria.
At this time, there were only a few scattered disciples eating in the cafeteria.
Song Wen forcibly suppressed the nausea in his heart and forced himself to eat a lot of food.
He knew that under such high pressure, if the body could not compensate for enough energy, his spirit and body might have problems and collapse.
However, he was a cultivator who practiced magic skills. The strength and endurance of his body were not comparable to ordinary people. There was no problem with his body.
After Song Wen had dinner and returned to the cave, he looked inside his body.
He found that although he had not absorbed the blood and essence from the corpses in the past two days, the rich blood and qi in the corpse-dissolving cave and the blood and essence he swallowed accidentally sometimes also replenished his previously depleted blood and qi.
He had become a young man with vigorous blood and qi again.
That night, Song Wen did not choose to practice, he still slept.
Sleeping can relieve his mental fatigue and discomfort to the greatest extent.
Although the work of dissecting corpses is uncomfortable, there is no fighting and complicated interpersonal relationships, which makes time pass quickly, and a month has passed in a blink of an eye.
Song Wen has gradually adapted to dissecting corpses and has become a qualified corpse dissecter.
He only needs to spend four hours in the corpse-dissecting cave every day, which makes him still the last corpse dissecter to leave.
Song Wen has long resumed his daily practice. With the blood and qi plundered from the corpse-dissecting cave, his "Corpse King Blood Refining" has made great progress, and Song Wen has silently raised his cultivation to the second level of Qi training.
But just now, Song Wen, who had finished his meditation practice, discovered an embarrassing thing.
Because his cultivation speed was too fast, he found that the corpse evil spirit provided by the corpse well in the cave could no longer meet his cultivation needs.
He could steal and devour enough blood and qi for his cultivation when he was dissecting the corpse, but the corpse evil spirit in the corpse well was not endless, but was supplied in a fixed quantity.
Of course, the situation of insufficient corpse evil spirit only occurred to Song Wen. It was impossible for the other disciples in the early stage of Qi training to have insufficient corpse evil spirit in their caves.
"What should I do? Where can I get enough corpse evil spirit?"
Song Wen immediately ended his meditation. At this time, the sky outside was already dawning. It was another sleepless night of cultivation.
Today was the day for the monthly salary. Song Wen planned to take the monthly salary and go to the market not far from the foot of the mountain to see if he could buy evil spirit.
After Song Wen completed the work of dissecting the corpse today, he received this month's monthly salary, a total of 20 low-grade spirit stones and 10 corpse blood pills, but the fasting pills were no longer distributed.
It was still early in the morning, and there was still time to go shopping. Song Wen hurried to the cave. The bloody smell on his body was too strong. Going to the market like this would easily attract attention, which was not in line with Song Wen's shrinking and developing habits.
After washing up, Song Wen did not go directly to the market. He went to the sect's Transmission Hall first. He had also reached the second level of Qi training in the "Corpse King Blood Refining Technique". It was time to try to enhance his combat ability.
With Song Wen rushing on the road, he spent nearly half an hour to reach the Transmission Hall halfway up the mountain.
After Song Wen showed his disciple token, he successfully entered the Transmission Hall, but was told that disciples like him who were in the early stages of Qi training could only move around on the first floor of the Transmission Hall.
There were many books in the Transmission Hall, covering everything, and they were arranged in different categories, including cultivation techniques, combat spells, corpse puppet refining techniques, spiritual medicine planting, spiritual material identification...
Of course, the books on the first floor of the Transmission Hall were all some elementary techniques and low-level spiritual medicine and spiritual material books.
Song Wen went directly to the spell area. There were not many spells suitable for disciples in the early stage of Qi training. There were only more than 30 spells in total.
Song Wen took a rough look. As a person who had practiced fireball and shield spells, conventional spells did not have much appeal to him.
However, some magic spells unique to the magic sect attracted his attention.
For example, one of the spells was called "Blood Sacrifice Spell". Once this spell was cast, it could greatly increase the mana of the cultivator for a short period of time, but this spell was at the cost of burning the cultivator's blood essence.
Others who use this spell will suffer from blood deficiency at best, or death on the spot at worst, and it is usually used as a last resort to risk their lives.
However, Song Wen has no such concerns. He has repeatedly devoured the essence and blood of others in the past month, and he has gradually discovered some secrets of his own body devouring essence and blood.
Perhaps it is because his body has been strengthened and the upper limit of his body's capacity to hold essence and blood has been increased, or perhaps it is because his body has gradually adapted to devouring the essence and blood of others, and now he will not feel the discomfort of blood surging when devouring essence and blood.
No matter how much essence and blood he devours, his body can quickly absorb and digest it.
Of course, it is also possible that Song Wen has been more restrained in the past month, and the essence and blood he has devoured has not yet reached the upper limit of his physical strength.
In short, Song Wen now has more than ten times the essence and blood stored in his body than others, and he can perform the "Blood Sacrifice" with ease, without any concerns about the loss of essence and blood.
Even if the essence and blood are depleted, he can swallow the essence and blood to quickly replenish it.
Just when Song Wen was excited, he noticed the price of the "Blood Sacrifice Technique" and finally had to put it down.
The price of the "Blood Sacrifice Technique" was one hundred low-grade spirit stones, which was not something he could afford at the moment.
With his current income, he had to save up a spirit stone for five months to afford it.
Song Wen also saw a "Blood Escape Technique", which was a method of burning one's own blood essence to increase speed. It was priced at 80 spirit stones, which Song Wen could not afford either.
Putting down the "Blood Escape Technique", Song Wen came to the area of corpse puppet refining techniques.
As the main sect that made corpse puppets, the Corpse Demon Sect had more than a dozen corpse puppet spells that could be practiced in the early stage of Qi training.
Perhaps it was to promote the corpse puppet spells, or it could be that the low-level corpse puppet spells were already raging in the vicinity of the Corpse Demon Sect, and most of the corpse puppet refining spells were very cheap, ranging from a few low-grade spirit stones to more than twenty low-grade spirit stones.
There are many types of corpse puppets, including advanced techniques that refine the soul and corpse together, and low-level techniques that only refine the corpse.
Corpse puppets with souls in their bodies are also called living corpses. They are more flexible to control and have stronger strength. If you find suitable Yin attribute spiritual materials, you can continuously improve the level of corpse puppets.
Corpse puppets without souls are called walking corpses. They are very rigid to control and have no growth potential. Due to their low production cost, they are generally used as disposable cannon fodder.
