A passerby in a horror movie

However, Wang Tiezhu was also someone who couldn't keep his mouth shut. After telling his wife and son about it, the news quickly spread.

It just so happened that Ren Weiyong, the head of the Ren family at the time, overheard it.

Ren Weiyong was ill at the time, and despite spending a lot of money on treatment, he could not be cured and did not have much time left to live.

So I've been thinking about how to handle the aftermath, after all, the Ren family's business is so large, it can't be ruined.

Hearing that such a good place existed, and that the burial would benefit his descendants, he naturally wanted to find a way to get his hands on it.

However, Ren Weiyong himself did not understand feng shui, and he could not just find a place to bury the body randomly. He could only ask Wang Tiezhu, a feng shui master, for advice on how to proceed.

Wang Tiezhu naturally refused.

Old Master Ren gave him the money, but Wang Tiezhu refused to accept it. He wasn't short of money himself, so naturally he wouldn't let his descendants' chance to prosper disappear for such a small amount.

Ren Weiyong then threatened Wang Tiezhu with his son, and had one of Wang Tiezhu's son's legs broken.

They even threatened that if Wang Tiezhu didn't hand over the location of the tomb and the method of burial, they would make it impossible for his entire family to survive in Renjia Town.

After Wang Tiezhu's son had his leg broken, the girl he had chosen no longer wanted to marry him. As a result, he became depressed and soon committed suicide by drowning. Wang Tiezhu's wife also went insane as a result, and the family was almost completely destroyed.

Wang Tiezhu was naturally filled with resentment and wanted revenge.

However, the Ren family was a large and powerful family at the time, and he, a mere sorcerer who had only recently broken through to the first level of Qi Refining, was not someone he could deal with. So he devised a plan.

He feigned submission and ceded that auspicious land to Ren Weiyong.

However, instead of entrusting the proper burial ceremony to the Ren family, he disrupted the elaborate arrangements, making it impossible for others to discern the truth on the surface.

Moreover, he specifically instructed the Ren family to exhume and relocate the coffin in 20 years.

The goal was to turn Ren Weiyong into a zombie, thus ensuring the extinction of the Ren family line.

Wang Tiezhu had a stroke of luck in his early years when he found a manual on corpse refining in a tomb.

It contains a description of an evil technique called the Heart-Connecting Puppet, which allows for the control of zombies and the creation of powerful zombies in a short period of time.

Although that place wasn't a good place to raise corpses, Wang Tiezhu would come to the vicinity of that tomb every year to cast spells using his puppets.

It is nourished with one's own blood, as well as various types of blood containing yin energy and corpse oil.

According to his estimate, 20 years would be enough time for Ren Weiyong to turn into a black zombie. Black zombies are not something that ordinary cultivators can deal with, and ordinary people would die as soon as they encounter them, with almost no chance of survival.

Even after Ren Weiyong emerges from his coffin, he will immediately harm his descendants. As long as he absorbs the blood of his descendants, they will quickly evolve into purple zombies.

After killing off all their direct descendants, it wouldn't be difficult for them to evolve into hairy zombies after a year or two of nurturing.

He will then use the Heart-Connecting Puppet to control the hairy zombies, use secret methods to absorb the lifespan of living people, and use this to increase his own lifespan, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

Unfortunately, this feng shui master never imagined that 20 years later, the person who would exhume and rebury Ren Weiyong would be Uncle Jiu.

With Uncle Nine, the chosen one, intervening, Ren Weiyong's corpse had no chance to evolve into a hairy zombie, and was eventually burned in a fire.

With the zombies destroyed, the feng shui master who cast the Heart-Connecting Puppet will naturally suffer a backlash and die.

However, at this moment, the feng shui master is holding on to his last breath, making final arrangements for the plan, while Uncle Nine is completely unaware of it.

Early the next morning, Uncle Nine took Li Haotian to the nearby hills to find a suitable burial site.

Uncle Jiu was basically familiar with the feng shui layout of the area around Renjia Town, so selecting a burial site was quite quick.

In the afternoon, Uncle Jiu took Wencai and Qiusheng to Master Ren's house to discuss the funeral arrangements.

This time, Li Haotian did not go with them because he still needed to learn the art of corpse driving and summoning gods from Master Simu.

"Xiao Tian, ​​corpse driving is not difficult for you. As long as you learn how to control corpses, you can simply refine them into jumping corpses."

Then, using corpse-driving talismans and spells, one can easily control them to perform certain actions.

As he spoke, Master Four Eyes began to demonstrate, casting spells to control his client.

Instantly, the corpses began to move in accordance with the movements of the Four-Eyed Taoist.

Li Haotian also found it somewhat intriguing.

After the demonstration, he began to learn from Master Simu.

Just as Master Simu said, corpse driving is indeed not a particularly difficult spell, it just requires some patience.

After all, transporting corpses is no easy task. If it weren't for the need to make a living, Master Simu wouldn't have taken on such dirty and tiring work.

Li Haotian learned this purely out of interest, and also because he wanted to learn more techniques.

After practicing a few times, Li Haotian quickly grasped the method of driving away the corpses. He clenched his fists and cast the spell on one of the corpses.

Instantly, the corpse became connected to him.

Li Haotian found it very interesting to manipulate the corpse to jump around.

"Alright, you've learned the basic skills of corpse driving. Practice diligently from now on."

Once your cultivation level increases and you reach a higher realm, not only will you be able to leap over corpses, but you can also easily drive away white zombies, black zombies, and even purple zombies. Of course, if it's not necessary, it's best not to engage in corpse refining.

Master Simu said earnestly.

There is also a branch of the Maoshan School that specializes in dealing with corpses.

They also want to create zombies and increase their combat power by controlling them.

However, this lineage is also the most prone to problems, since zombies are not so easy to control. If they accidentally lose control, the first to suffer the backlash will be the person who created the zombie.

Historically, there was an incident in Maoshan where a flying zombie went out of control, causing particularly heavy losses. Many senior figures lost their lives on the spot, and even the Yuanfu Wanning Palace was almost destroyed.

Since then, the lineage of corpse refining has declined, and to this day, few disciples specialize in it; they all treat corpse driving and corpse refining as an extra skill.

Li Haotian naturally understood this principle. He only learned how to refine and transport corpses in order to learn more self-defense skills. He didn't want to deal with corpses unless necessary.

In the following time, Master Simu explained the art of summoning spirits to Li Haotian.

"Originally, your master didn't plan to teach you the art of summoning spirits here, but I didn't expect you to master it so quickly and have such good talent. It's unheard of."

Master Si Mu sighed and looked at Li Haotian with envy.

Given the current cultivation environment, the fact that Li Haotian can still cultivate at such a speed demonstrates just how extraordinary his talent is.

In the past, someone like Li Haotian would have been a precious treasure within the sect and given special attention.

However, given the current environment, he is unsure whether Li Haotian can reach a higher level.

Shaking his head, Master Simu stopped thinking about it. Everyone has their own destiny, and it was up to Li Haotian to go wherever he wanted.

As his senior martial brother, Master Simu was already more than generous in passing on some skills to him.
