Days passed in a blur, and finally, it was the last day before the competition for inner sect promotion.
Shaan was not idle these days, with constant research, his formation proficiency has already reached level 1 and he can already start laying so elentary formations.
Since he has now joined Yu Yanxie’s camp, he shalessly went to Trade House a couple more tis and even managed to wool out an advanced sword technique explaining the basics of swordsmanship and even got a soul technique called- Death finger!
He had to admit, whether the sword or the soul technique, everything Yu Yanxie took out- all seed unique and classy.
Amidst all this, he didn’t forget the most important thing, on almost all his fingers, he was wearing a space ring.
Each storage ring was filled with mountains and mountains of food ration and various miscellaneous materials to refine and lay so rudintary formations.
This was his foundation to shine in the zombie world, How could he forget it?
"I have to admit, having those bad girls as slaves is wonderful!"
"I don’t even have to do any trivial task, everything ranging from going to the mortal market to buy grains to gathering intelligence on my enemies, these girls did everything. All of them seem to be vying for my favour!"
Shaan chuckled smoothly as he stared at the jade slip painstakingly prepared by Lin Mao, Qin Miner, Su Shane’r and Ji Ruan.
Don’t look at it as a re piece of jade, it contains all the classified information including his potential opponent’s secret techniques, secret trump cards, any hidden weapons or heck even detailed descriptions regarding the enemies latest strength.
How did those girls get such information?— Of course, by the power of money earned from the sales of the zombie crystals, Shaan only knew one logic- As long as you have enough spirit stones, you can buy anything.....and if you still aren’t able to buy the thing you want, it simply ans you haven’t offered enough.
Corruption has existed since ti immorial, you just need to quote the right amount.
"Damn, now the cooldown of the lotus petal has ended, I gotta be careful... I can only safely use its power to hop 3 tis between worlds."
After communication with the treasure inside his consciousness, Shaan disappeared from its cultivation cave.
....
The next second he appeared back to the bottom of the building which was his temporary base.
"Hmmm, finally returned to my backyard."
Breathing the air of his ho ground, Shaan felt confident.
"It’s ti to check my gains!"
In a happy mood, Shaan stepped out to see how big his blood-refining pool had beco.
Looking at the scenery ahead, Shaan was taken aback, in front of him was a big-shallow lake spanning over a large area, the colour of the lake was so deep red.....a testant to the number of zombies that must have dissolved in it.
The number of souls flying around and trying to break free from the formation’s restriction was even exaggerated.
"Just how many brothers and sisters did those corpse puppets drag in this refining lake?"
Shaan was perplexed.
"Doesn’t matter the more the rrier."
"Probably given the concentration of the liquid in this lake, those hard-working corpse puppets must have cleaned the entire South and East Sector of this city. I wonder how far my level can soar?"
"Those guys really deserve a raise."
Shaan sighed with gratitude.
Full of excitent, Shaan imrsed himself in the blood-red liquid and started running his taboo practices.
[The Way To The Underworld]
[The Path To Eternal Damnation]
Techniques which seed to send a shiver down a casual monk’s spine were being recited whole-heartedly by Shaan like so daily prayer.
This ti it took more ti....
Slowly but steadily his body refining and divine consciousness level started surging.
After 1 full hour of effort, Shaan could feel it, his soul power had increased exponentially and his muscles and bones filled with an imasurable level of strength.
"Level 30 Body Refining!"
"Level 30 Divine Consciousness!"
According to the secret data available to him, such stats were already enough to go toe to toe against all the opponents he would face in the inner sect promotion contest.
The big blood-red refining lake had shrunken considerably to the point of almost disappearing.
"No matter what, I can’t be overconfident."
Rembering how he got played by Yu Yanxie, Shaan imdiately cleared his mind.
He must be prepared for the worst situation.
"It’s ti to recall my special weapon."
"I still don’t know what type of competition the promotion contest will be....but since it is secretly arranged, it ans there is always a chance to play tricks."
"In case, I am still at a disadvantage, I would sneakily use the Resentnt Mirror to defeat the enemy."
Even when a lion hunts an injured deer, he goes with full force, likewise, Shaan decides to bring all his hole-cards.
With his single gesture, the dangerous Resentnt Mirror, which was floating in the middle of the formation, slowly fell on his palm, before integrating completely into his body.
Shaan could perceive it, his exclusive weapon, The Resentnt Mirror lay docile beside the lotus petal at the centre of his consciousness.
Because of enough movents, the corpse puppets, feeling a change in the situation, hurriedly rushed back.
The mont they saw their master, their faces brightened with a natural smile.
Looking at those 10 undead figures making shrieking and creaking voices one after another, Shaan was puzzled.
"What?"
"You said you have dragged about 60,000 zombies into the blood refining pool and the entire south and east zone of the city has been cleared of zombies."
Shaan exclaid in appreciation.
"No wonder I could advance so fast."
"Wait, you are saying that during my absence, so strange humans approached my camp?...and you managed to kill the majority of them, only 4 of them escaped?"
"And those 4 ran off in the direction where Sabrina’s team was staying?"
"Not bad!"
Shaan had to admit, he was certainly impressed by the power shown by these corpse puppets.
Even level 3 evolvers were no match against them?
He right away decided to raise the strength of his undead army such that all of them had strength equal to the peak of foundation.
"Good, as a reward, let make you even more domineering."
As for refining the material required, he had them in excess in his spatial rings.
After upgrading the strength of his corpse puppets, Shaan still didn’t feel fully prepared for the competition.
"Wait, why not let’s even carry these corpses with ?"
"Technically, they should be able to enter the space ring as they are non-living things."
Thinking of trying it for experint’s sake, Shaan just randomly waved his hand.
Recalled~
"As expected, my undead army can enter a spatial ring."
"This way I can carry them with , who knows when they will co in handy."
Although there was a grave risk of being discovered carrying demonic things with him and being judged guilty.....Shaan had already co far ahead on this road to even be scared by such little possibilities.
Even if keeping corpse puppets is sothing being heavily loathed in the cultivation world, Shaan didn’t give a damn!
According to him- with his excessive high-end preparations, if he still couldn’t win the first place then it would be a sha on his na as transmigrator!
"No finishing top place might attract too much attention and offend many people with significant backing, I only need to finish top 5 to get a chance to choose my peak."
Shaan imdiately prepared a future roadmap.
After thinking it through, Shaan started walking towards Sabrina’s base camp.
No, it should no longer be called Sabrina’s base camp as she was no longer the leader.
After walking a few ters, he arrived at his destination.
Like always, he was straight away spotted by Alice, who was in an alert state.
Upon seeing his backer, Alice was instantaneously filled with enthusiasm.
Like a delighted chirping bird returning to her nest, she earnestly flocked to Shaan.
"Shaan, you are finally back!"
"We had been waiting for you for the past 4 days, Where the heck had you been?"
Unable to hide her anger, Alice exclaid.
But the next second she earned a deep stare from him.
"Is this the tone with which a subordinate talks to his boss?"
Hearing Shaan’s cold words, Alice took a deep breath before speaking much more politely.
"I am sorry master, I had been yearning for your return that’s why I wasn’t able to control my excitent."
Alice hurriedly apologised.
"That’s better!"
Feeling the sincerity in her voice, Shaan’s mood eased.
A subordinate must rember the relationship.
If you let them act willfully from the start, then how can you build an awe-inspiring image for them?
That’s why Shaan was strict with his slave girls.
"So I heard many things have happened and new people have co here?"
Looking at the extra makeshift tents in the background, Shaan asked knowingly.
"Indeed, let quickly tell you everything!"
Alice directly started telling about all the events that happened during his absence.
From Sabrina sulking with depression to the arrival of Jasmine’s powerful group of 4 people to how they invited them to join their shelter.
From offering them preferential treatnt and giving them the status of commander straightaway, Alice told everything to Shaan.
