After killing the old man, Ning Qi walked towards a stone room. In the stone room, there were two bronze coffins. From the traces on the ground, it could be seen that there were definitely more than two coffins here in the past.
There seemed to be some kind of seal on the coffins. Even with Ning Qi's Celestial Vision, he could only see a trace of black spiritual energy. This should be corpse energy.
Without much hesitation, Ning Qi waved his hand and the lid of one of the coffins flew away. Inside the coffin was a big red coffin. After opening it, there was a green-faced, fanged corpse sleeping inside.
Its face was ferocious and the corpse energy on its body was extremely strong. However, there was a red mark between its eyebrows. The effect of this mark was recorded in the Corpse Cultivation Method. It could make an ownerless bronze-armored corpse fall into a deep sleep. Each mark was effective for ten years. After ten years, a new mark needed to be placed.
This was the Corpse Suppressing Seal.
In addition to being used to suppress the bronze-armored corpse, it had a wide range of uses. It could also restrain some ghosts. For example, if a ghost like Yan Qing was placed with the Corpse Suppressing Seal, it would be sealed in the Rainbow Glaze Cauldron and could not appear.
Ning Qi followed the steps in the Corpse Cultivation Method and bit his ring finger. Drops of blood continuously dripped from the air into the mouth of the bronze-armored corpse. Suddenly, the Corpse Suppressing Seal seemed to lose its effect. The bronze-armored corpse's eyes suddenly opened.
A stream of blood Qi visible to the naked eye kept surging up, almost covering its eyes. Its bright red eyes looked extremely terrifying, but Ning Qi didn't feel it at all. He was still carrying out the refining steps in an orderly manner.
About three days later.
The refining was finally successful.
The Corpse Suppressing Seal on the bronze-armored corpse's forehead was wiped away by Ning Qi. It wore black armor and stood quietly behind Ning Qi. With a thought, Ning Qi could give it orders.
The bronze-armored corpse was extremely strong. It was impervious to fire and water. It was immune to many immortal techniques. When it was on the ground, it could also enter a state of invisibility with the help of the earth energy. All corpse energy would be absorbed. If one's cultivation was not high enough, ordinary cultivators would not be able to break this technique.
Ning Qi opened the attribute panel and saw the bronze-armored corpse column. Behind it, there was also a plus sign.
Originally, he was wondering if he could use the Irrigation Technique to increase the Bronze Armored Corpse's level. In the end, the system simply allowed him to add points directly, which saved him a lot of effort.
After refining the other bronze-armored corpse with the same method, Ning Qi took the two bronze-armored corpses and left for Jin Ling City.
There was one point that was slightly troublesome. When the Bronze Armored Corpse was in the sky, there was no way to conceal itself with the help of the Earth Qi.
Before figuring out the attitude of this world's cultivators towards the Mysterious Corpse Sect, as well as their attitude towards zombies, Ning Qi didn't want to be too ostentatious. Thus, he took the two bronze-armored corpses with him and traveled by land. Compared to riding on a cloud, his speed was two times slower. Occasionally, he could still enjoy the scenery along the way.
One day, Ning Qi hadn't even walked a few dozen miles on the official road when he saw a group of chivalrous men galloping past.
The carriages and pedestrians on the official road all moved to the side to avoid the dust stirred up by the horses' hooves.
"There are so many Physical Body Realm martial artists. Judging by their attire, they should belong to different sects. Their expressions are solemn, and there is a trace of killing intent. They are probably chasing after their enemies."
Ning Qi withdrew his gaze, smiled, and continued on his way.
Half an hour later.
Many people stopped in their tracks, and a trace of fear flashed in their eyes. On this official road, there were many corpses lying in disorder.
Ning Qi recognized these corpses as the group of chivalrous men who had just galloped past. They died with their eyes wide open, and their faces were still filled with resentment, anger, and fear.
"It's over. Could it be that the little witch is nearby?"
A horse stopped beside Ning Qi, and a middle-aged man sat on it. He had a long saber on his back, and with a glance, one could tell that he was also a member of the Jianghu.
However, at this moment, the middle-aged man's face was full of fear, as if he had recognized the identity of the murderer who killed this group of chivalrous men.
"Quickly report this to the authorities!"
"So many people have died, but why are the constables of the Six Doors of Divine Arresters nowhere to be seen!"
"There is actually such a tragic battle in broad daylight. This world is really getting more and more chaotic!"
Ning Qi looked at the middle-aged man and said with a smile, "Uncle, who is the little witch you speak of?"
The middle-aged man looked at Ning Qi and said, "The little witch I speak of is the most outstanding disciple of the Heavenly Chord Sect!"
"Heavenly Chord Sect?
The name of this sect doesn't sound like a Demon Sect. Why did you call her the little witch?
Could it be that she killed all these people? "
Ning Qi's face revealed a hint of curiosity, as if he was ignorant of the world.
The middle-aged man could already confirm that Ning Qi was the kind of young master who sneaked out of his home and wanted to roam the Jianghu, but did not know much about the Jianghu.
He smiled and said, "The Heavenly Chord Sect is a branch of the Dayu Clan's Heavenly Demon Sect. The founder of the Heavenly Chord Sect was once an inner sect disciple of the Heavenly Demon Sect. Do you think the Heavenly Chord Sect is a Demon Sect?"
"The Six Doors of Divine Arresters is handling this matter. Unrelated people, please leave!"
At this moment, hundreds of constables, led by a baihu, galloped over on their horses. When the baihu saw the corpses on the ground, his face became extremely solemn.
"In order to prevent you all from dying in the hands of the witch for no reason, this official road will be closed for a day. You all should return to Mingguang City and stay for the night!"
"What?
Return to Mingguang City? "
"Sir, we have to hurry on with our journey. Why don't you let us go?"
Many people's expressions changed slightly. They were unwilling to return to Mingguang City and stay for the night. It was too much of a waste of time. It was still early, and they had enough time to rush to their next accommodation.
"I am only reminding you. If you die in the hands of the witch, don't blame me for not warning you."
The baihu sneered and said, "If you are willing to continue on with your journey, then continue. If you are unwilling, then turn around and return to Mingguang City."
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other. In the end, only a small group of people mustered up the courage to continue on with their journey. The rest shook their heads and sighed. They turned around and walked in the direction of Mingguang City.
"Little brother, do you still want to continue on with your journey?"
When the middle-aged man saw that Ning Qi intended to continue on, he secretly sneered in his heart. The newborn calf was really not afraid of the tiger.
"Yes, I have no enmity with the little witch. She probably won't do anything to me, right?"
Ning Qi smiled and nodded.
The middle-aged man rolled his eyes and urged his horse to catch up to Ning Qi. "I am the same as you. Since that is the case, why don't we all travel together?"
After Ning Qi and the middle-aged man walked far away, the baihu suspiciously looked at the back of the middle-aged man. His eyes flashed with a hint of contemplation. After a few breaths, he shook his head and ordered his subordinates, "Keep the corpses and send them back to Mingguang City. The rest of you, follow me to chase after the witch!"
"Yes, sir!"
The group of constables immediately obeyed. Apart from a small group of people who were sent back to Mingguang City, the rest followed the baihu who was emitting the aura of the fourth level of the Mortal Body Boundary to chase after the witch.
