Breakthrough the foundation and activate the corpse king

"Nine Nether Corpse Puppet Grand Formation! Rise!"

Shen Fan bellowed.

The Corpse Puppets, activated by his vital blood, immediately began to move.

The two Corpse Kings, using the Two Poles Formation of the Nine Nether Corpse Puppet Grand Formation, accompanied Shen Fan.

The Thirty-Six Gold-Armored Corpse Puppets formed an outer circle in a Heavenly Dipper Formation.

The Seventy-Two Silver-Armored Corpse Puppets formed an outer circle in an Earthly Fiend Formation.

The one hundred and eight Bronze-Armored Corpse Puppets formed an outermost circle in a Formation combining the Heavenly Dipper and Earthly Fiend.

With Shen Fan at the center, a five-layered encirclement was formed.

Within the Spirit Gathering Array, as the Nine Netherworld Corpse Refining Art circulated,

Surging Spiritual Qi entered the bodies of these Corpse Puppets, then combined with the vital blood, and began to repair the Corpse Puppets' withered Spiritual Veins.

If the Spiritual Veins could be repaired, Shen Fan would completely activate these Corpse Puppets.

As time passed,

This slow process continuously progressed through the ebb and flow of days and nights.

The vital blood in the large cauldron steadily decreased.

The Spirit Stones at the core of the Formation were continuously consumed.

When the Low-Grade Spirit Stones ran out, Shen Fan took out Mid-Grade Spirit Stones.

When the Mid-Grade Spirit Stones ran out, Shen Fan took out his last reserves.

...

...

Three months passed in a flash.

The vital blood in the basin had dried up.

The Spirit Stones on the Formation's core had turned into piles ofwaste rock (waste stones).

And the Bronze-Armored Corpse Puppets, resting on the outermost perimeter, had already lined up, ready for battle.

Each one opened its scarlet eyes, like well-trained soldiers awaiting Shen Fan's inspection.

Just then,

With the rubbing of silver armor, the Seventy-Two Silver-Armored Corpse Puppets were also completely activated.

Compared to the Bronze-Armored Corpse Puppets, the Silver-Armored Corpse Puppets' eyes seemed to hold a hint of confusion about the outside world.

Rumble!

Heavy footsteps followed.

The Thirty-Six Gold-Armored Zombies opened their eyes.

"Uh-huh!"

Their throats, which had beenWaste (Waste) for an unknown number of years, were now reactivated.

The Thirty-Six Gold-Armored Corpse Puppets simultaneously let out a low roar.

They had actually developed their own sentience.

Every single one looked at Shen Fan in the very center with fervent expressions.

And at this moment,

The bodies of the Corpse Kings, positioned on either side of Shen Fan,

Were completely filled with flesh, and their skin was restored to its original state.

Looking at them,

Two burly, mighty zombies surrounded Shen Fan.

At this moment, they were frantically absorbing the vital blood and Spiritual Qi from Shen Fan's body.

Because the stored vital blood had been used up,

And they were just a tiny bit short of activating the two Corpse Kings,

Shen Fan, in desperation, could only feed the Corpse Kings with his own flesh and blood.

And as Shen Fan supplied vital blood and Spiritual Qi to the Corpse Kings,

He himself developed a faint, almost imperceptible connection with the Corpse Kings.

It was a feeling, as if controlling his own limbs and Physical Body.

Or rather, at this moment, the Corpse Kings had already become a part of Shen Fan's body.

Boom!

Just as Shen Fan was exulting,

He completely failed to notice that the vital blood in his body was almost depleted.

And as an unprecedented power erupted from the bodies of the two Corpse Kings,

Shen Fan could no longer support himself, falling to the ground with a crash, completely unconscious.

...

...

And just at this moment,

Dozens of kilometers away from where Shen Fan was in seclusion,

Lin Ye led his group on patrol to this location.

"Senior Brother, what exactly is going on? All of a sudden, the Spiritual Qi in this area has weakened so much?"

"Someone must be attempting a Breakthrough here, but this amount of Spiritual Qi consumption definitely indicates a Foundation Establishment Stage Breakthrough to Golden Core Stage. I wonder if it's someone from our Tianxuan Sect!"

Lin Ye said hesitantly.

"Never mind. If it's one of our own, we'll act as Protector for them to Breakthrough. But if it's someone else, then don't blame us for being impolite!"

"That's right! Our Tianxuan Sect is completely in chaos now. Elder Mo Yu betrayed us, and Lingjian Sect is targeting us everywhere. Our Tianxuan Sect can be said to be riddled with holes!"

Everyone sighed without exception.

In a blink of an eye,

More than ten people arrived at Shen Fan's location.

"Eh? The Spiritual Qi here seems to be much denser again!"

The more than ten people suddenly stopped.

Lin Ye looked around and gazed into the distance.

The next moment, he directly fixed his gaze on a mountain peak.

"Spirit Gathering Array?"

The keen Lin Ye immediately noticed that a Spirit Gathering Array had been set up within the mountain.

Subsequently, dozens of people arrived in an instant, reaching the front of this mountain peak.

Looking around, they saw that the mountain was naturally formed, without any caves for entry or exit.

Seeing this, Lin Ye immediately cupped his hands and shouted, "May I ask which Senior is undergoing a Breakthrough here? This place is within the Domain of my Tianxuan Sect. If you are a Senior of my Tianxuan Sect, this Junior Lin Ye will act as Protector for Senior!"

...

Silence!

There was complete silence among the mountains.

"Not speaking?"

Lin Ye frowned, then coldly ordered, "Break open this mountain for me!"

A Disciple hesitated, "Senior Brother, what if it's a Senior from our Tianxuan Sect?"

"It shouldn't be!"

Lin Ye said with certainty.

"If it were a Senior from our Tianxuan Sect, their Breakthrough should be within the safest part of the Sect. Why would they be in this desolate wilderness?"

"That's right!"

Everyone suddenly realized.

Boom!

With more than ten people attacking together,

This low-lying mountain peak, hidden among the mountains, was instantly razed to the ground.

The next moment,

A five-pointed Formation appeared before everyone.

And when Lin Ye saw this Formation, his pupils constricted violently.

"This is..."

What was before his eyes was something Lin Ye was most familiar with.

"Shen Fan!"

Seeing this, Lin Ye immediately recognized that it belonged to Shen Fan.

Back outside the Hanfeng Society, it was this thing that had trapped him.

"So it's Shen Fan undergoing a Breakthrough here!"

Lin Ye sneered, a cruel smile forming on his lips.

"You wouldn't stay properly on Zhan Yue Peak, but instead ran here to Breakthrough. No wonder I haven't seen you for the past few months! So you were hiding here!"

After he finished speaking,

A green lotus sword slowly appeared above Lin Ye's head.

"Kid, in this desolate wilderness, I'm afraid no one can come to save you!"

Lin Ye had finally found an opportunity to kill Shen Fan; how could he miss it?

"Senior Brother, won't we be discovered?"

A Disciple beside him asked worriedly.

"After all, he's a Disciple of Zhan Yue Peak!"

"What's Zhan Yue Peak? Does Tianxuan Sect still have people with special privileges? The place where Zhan Yue Peak sealed the Corpse King has been dug open, and the Corpse King inside is nowhere to be found, whether it ran away or died. Zhan Yue Peak no longer has the qualifications for preferential treatment!"

Lin Ye roared, silencing everyone.

"Break open this tortoise shell with me!"

Lin Ye shouted sternly, and the green lotus sword above his head slowly descended.

It landed on the Five Elements Flag, emitting a booming green sword light.

Streaks of sword light pierced into the Five Elements Flag, causing it to tremble violently.

Within the Formation,

The two Corpse Kings slowly raised their heads.

Having absorbed Shen Fan's Spiritual Qi and vital blood, they had already developed their own sentience.

Vaguely, they sensed that the group of people outside seemed to have ill intentions.

Even the Thirty-Six Gold-Armored Corpse Puppets showed vigilance.

If the Corpse Kings at this moment were equivalent to sixteen or seventeen-year-old children,

Then the Gold-Armored Corpse Puppets were equivalent to five or six-year-old children.

They already had their own perception of the outside world.

The Silver-Armored Zombies were like newborn babies.

The Bronze-Armored Zombies were like mindless machines.

Then, the two Corpse Kings looked down at Shen Fan, who was still unconscious.

They shot up like rockets,

Directly piercing through the Five Elements Flag Grand Formation.

And appeared before Lin Ye.

"It's not Shen Fan?"

When Lin Ye saw the two Corpse Kings, he was completely stunned. He subconsciously stopped, about to apologize.

But immediately after,

The Thirty-Six Gold-Armored Corpse Puppets shot into the sky.

Surrounding these people.

Seeing this scene, Lin Ye's pupils constricted violently: "Corpse Puppets!!!"

Boom!!

The Seventy-Two Silver-Armored Corpse Puppets once again shot into the sky.

Lin Ye was completely numb: "How could the suppressed Gold, Silver, and Bronze Zombie Corpse Puppets be here!"
