The process of 'transporting' corpses to the oil refinery for sale was not as simple as Han Dong imagined.
Although Zhang Xiliang was considered a small boss in the local area, he still used conventional methods to transport corpses. After all, once he was discovered by the Ministry of Justice, he would be labeled as a human trafficker.
He would be demoted to a locksmith or refined corpse oil.
The so-called conventional method was a type of [Body Transportation].
Due to the physical characteristics of zombies, they did not need to maintain the integrity of their organs, blood vessels, and so on like humans. They only needed a unique heart to function normally.
Therefore, they could disassemble the corpses they wanted to transport into small pieces, swallow them, and bring them to the oil refinery.
Stuffing other people's bodies into one's own body would cause the body to swell. Therefore, they also needed a cloak to cover their whole body.
However, since Han Dong was here, the transportation process was much more convenient.
After swallowing all the disassembled corpses, he directly approached the oil refinery's alley using the void method. Not far ahead was the back door of the branch where Zhang Xiliang worked.
Just getting close to the oil refinery made his whole body feel sticky.
He even felt that if he stood still for a long time, his body would completely solidify in place like a wax statue.
"What a difficult working environment. It seems that being born in the Hybrid Demon World is quite good."
After Zhang Xiliang stated his purpose of coming, someone immediately received him at the back door. His attitude was quite good.
After all, the other party took half of the corpse oil as a handling fee. Moreover, the fifty-fifty was because of Zhang Xiliang, the local boss. Generally, people who came to deliver goods would give a thirty-seventy split.
After weighing the corpses, they converted them into two small buckets of corpse oil according to the [Standard Oil Extraction Ratio] and handed them to Zhang Xiliang.
Since the corpse oil was in his hands, he did not stay any longer.
"Mr. Han, do we go back directly or?"
"Let's go back first. I suddenly remembered something."
"Something?"
When they returned to the old house.
Han Dong stared at Zhang Xiliang's body from top to bottom.
Compared to ordinary zombies, he had an additional ability to gather toxins and control them. In other words, he had a plague control ability.
"You can inhale the toxins in the air and express them in various forms. Is this ability innate?"
"Yes. From the beginning, I could condense my navel through breathing. Later, through learning [Corpse Collection], I slowly applied it to different parts of my body. I could even attach it to weapons."
"[Corpse Collection]? Can you explain it in detail? "
This question made Zhang Xiliang somewhat confused. In his mind, Han Dong should be a mysterious person in the seventh department of the court, the Ministry of Secrets. How could he ask such a basic question? But out of respect, he still answered carefully.
"'Corpse Collection' is a great book created by the emperors of the past dynasties. It doesn't refer to a specific book, but it refers to a book that can guide the cultivation of zombies. It's mainly managed by the Ministry of Personnel.
Any zombie could create a related book. As long as the book passed the review of the Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs, it would be included in Corpse Collection.
Of course, the difficulty of this was extremely high, and it was definitely not something an ordinary zombie could create.
Due to the difference in authors, Corpse Collection was also divided into good and bad, high and low, as well as expensive ones. The one I cultivated was a low-grade Corpse Collection that could be bought directly from the [Market]. It was called Poison Dissolving Heart Sutra.
However, although we can buy them directly, and they are very low-level corpse collections, they are still very expensive for us.
The amount of corpse oil needed to exchange for this book is about 15 small barrels. "
"Oh! Was it a masterpiece? This kind of management method is quite good. "
Hearing this, Han Dong became more interested in the cultivation method of zombies. He also decided to get a high-quality Corpse Collection to practice. After all, his body wasn't his, so it didn't matter how he did it.
Can you let me take a look at your Corpse Collection? "
"Of course."
A simple booklet was handed to Han Dong. The cover was printed with the [Corpse Collection Seal] recognized by the Ministry of Personnel Affairs, along with the title and author of the book.
He finished reading it in a short ten minutes.
In summary, it was a very rough book that could be borrowed. It also mentioned that by cultivating the [Poison Dissolving Heart Sutra], one could reach the level of a black zombie at most. If one wanted to go any higher, they would have to change to a similar [Corpse Collection].
Naturally, this also led to the relevant levels of zombies. They were named according to the changes in their hair, aura, and color at different stages.
The lowest level of zombies was the white zombie that Han Dong was currently a white zombie.
If one wanted to go any higher, all the condensed gas in the white zombie's body would be turned into a high concentration of 'green gas', which meant that one would become a [Green Zombie].
Going one step further, the green gas would be completely purified and compressed, and a black pill would be constructed in the body, which would be a [Black Zombie].
Although it was only a change in color, the difference inside was quite huge.
As long as one could become a green zombie, their freedom would be greatly increased. They could choose to take up some positions in local organizations, and they could also apply to participate in the selection competition of the imperial court.
As for the black zombie, which was a higher level, they could be directly used by the imperial court.
"Come here."
"Oh …"
Just as Zhang Xiliang jumped in front of Han Dong, a hand was placed on his abdomen.
Learning the way Demps used to adjust the magic circuit for Han Dong, Han Dong also began to adjust the [Circuit] in Zhang Xiliang's body, so that the poisonous gas in the body could circulate more efficiently throughout the body.
Although Zhang Xiliang was a little scared, after all, there was a tentacle crawling around in his body.
However, as time passed, he felt that his body was light and unusually smooth.
"Now, hurry up and use the [Poison Dissolving Heart Sutra]."
"Okay …"
Zhang Xiliang followed the usual method of cultivation, and used a type of breathing method to circulate his inner strength.
This time, the feeling was completely different.
The body that was completely opened up allowed the [Heart Sutra] to circulate without hindrance … Suddenly, the [Inner Circulation] mentioned in the [Heart Sutra] was completely completed, and the aura hidden in his dantian was also constantly deepening and turning green.
Even the area five meters around Zhang Xiliang grew poisonous plaque.
When he opened his eyes again, there were strands of green hair floating on the surface of his body, and his eyes were also emitting a green light.
"I … I actually advanced!"
The moment Zhang Xiliang realized this, he immediately stuck his body to the ground.
"Thank you Mr. Han, without your help, I don't know how long it would take for me to reach this stage …"
"It's just a little help, if your performance is good, you might have a chance to become a black zombie."
"I am willing to follow you for life!"
Han Dong stared at this extremely devout green-haired zombie and could not help but laugh self-deprecatingly … This method felt very similar to the Hybrid Demons, who occasionally gave gifts to deepen the absolute worship of their believers.
In fact, Han Dong was just interested in seeing how zombies advanced and the changes during the advancement.
"Not only did the control of poison increase, but the overall body also increased, especially in the [Hardness] aspect.
It seems that the biggest characteristic of the zombies in the [Tomb World] is [Hardness]. No matter what kind of cultivation path they take, the hardness of the body will increase.
What a good attribute … If I can apply it to my ghoul, it will really have a miraculous effect. "
