The Demonic Cultivator In Zombie World

With a crisp snap, immense force burst forth, instantly twisting and breaking the burly hand covered in black hair. A pained scream erupted suddenly, drawing the attention of the surrounding cultivators. They then realized that the one who had broken the hand was a formidable and vicious corpse puppet.

"Isn't that Kou Mang the Black Wind Ghost? This guy is notorious for murdering and looting around Lei Family City!"

"I recognize him too, he killed a good friend of mine!"

"If I'm not mistaken, Kou Mang is a sixth-level Golden Core cultivator, and also skilled in physical cultivation. Though not highly advanced in bodily cultivation, his physical strength should surpass most Golden Core cultivators, how could he..."

"Unless that's a sixth-level Corpse Commander!"

The onlookers gasped in shock. A Corpse Commander, and at least a sixth-level one at that!

"Spare me! Please, spare my life!" Kou Mang immediately pleaded for mercy, tears and snot streaming down his face.

Chu Xuan's expression remained unchanged, while another muscular hand of the Hu's swiftly grabbed Kou Mang's head.

The next moment, under Kou Mang's horrified gaze, his head was crushed with a crunch, like a ripe persimmon hitting the ground, splattering everywhere.

The nearby cultivators' faces changed rapidly, each hastily using their Spiritual Qi to shield themselves from the splatter.

Kou Mang, a robber with a notorious reputation, was easily crushed to death. Those cultivators who had been lurking in the crowd, harboring intentions of making a move, suddenly restrained their impulses. It was clear this was a formidable figure not to be trifled with.

After eliminating Kou Mang, who had been the first to strike, the atmosphere significantly improved. Few dared to haggle anymore. Whatever price Chu Xuan quoted, they would grimace but accept.

Chu Xuan felt quite pleased. Doing business should indeed be this way, eliminating the wasteful back-and-forth of bargaining. This way, both the vendor profits and the customers get what they need—a win-win situation!

By noon, Chu Xuan had sold off all the items he no longer needed. The spiritual stones he had expended to set up the Yellow Springs Soul Refining Array were replenished once more.

After selling all his goods, Chu Xuan began to wander around the market. With Hu present, those cultivators harboring malicious intentions dared not speak up. Even the vendors did not dare to overcharge, fearing to provoke Chu Xuan and meet the same fate as Kou Mang.

Consequently, Chu Xuan managed to acquire some valuable bodily cultivation techniques, consciousness secrets, and poison scriptures. This sparked an idea in him.

Blue Star, abundant in Psionic energy and diverse in supernatural creatures, was highly conducive for physical cultivation. If the superhumans there practiced these bodily cultivation methods, perhaps remarkable effects could be achieved.

He had always struggled to find bodily cultivation techniques beyond the fortieth level. Perhaps Blue Star might produce a naturally gifted cultivator who could overcome this hurdle for him.

Chu Xuan believed that with sufficient merit, creating a follow-up method on one's own was merely a matter of having the fortune favor the mind.

If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

However, his merit had not yet reached the level where he could do as he pleased, and it was also sporadically effective.

Currently, his merit seemed abundant but in reality, it only slightly extended his lifespan and increased the success rate of pill concoction and artifact refinement.

As for the consciousness secrets, the same principle applied. Chu Xuan planned to let the people of Soul Star try to combine two or more consciousness secrets to complement each other and form a superior method.

Alternatively, they could modify some powerful but side-effect-laden consciousness secrets for the better. All these were possibilities worth exploring.

…

After three consecutive days, the cultivators at the temporary market came to recognize the man with a plethora of healing pills and life-preserving talismans. 𝐑àℕȪᛒĚʂ

Several robbers like Kou Mang the brigand had tried to attack him but were easily crushed by the Corpse Commander by his side, without even a chance to resist. Many assessed the situation and dared not act rashly.

Initially, only those cultivators who considered themselves weak came to buy his goods.

However, as time passed, many realized that he had an abundance of items for sale. If they didn't buy and others did, wouldn't they be at a significant disadvantage?

Thus, they felt compelled to purchase as well.

Chu Xuan's extensive sale of life-preserving items indirectly intensified the upcoming battles among the cultivators.

By the end of the third day, most cultivators were equipped with a couple of healing pills and several defensive talismans, and their spiritual stones were nearly depleted.

Many speculated that this formidable seller might not return, considering the dynamics of supply and demand. If the demand decreased, or if there was no demand at all, then even if the seller dropped his prices, it likely wouldn't attract buyers.

On the fourth day, Chu Xuan returned to his usual stall, greeted by the same old cultivator with a sycophantic smile, who was already perched on a small stool.

Seeing Chu Xuan reappear, the old man expressed surprise and whispered, "Fellow daoist, why have you come to set up your stall again today? Do you still have pills and talismans to sell? But I'm afraid you might not fetch high prices today."

Chu Xuan smiled, "Why is that?"

The old cultivator explained his logic, "No one's buying anymore, so naturally, you can't sell anything."

Chu Xuan laughed heartily, "What if I bring out even better goods? How would you handle that?"

With that said, he casually spread out his wares. A vast array of pills and talismans, all of superior quality compared to the previous days, covered the stall.

Among them were some nefarious pills that consumed life span to enhance Spiritual Qi and demonic talismans that contained the souls of beasts—clearly superior life-preserving items.

The old cultivator's eyes widened, and he could only utter, "Holy moly... I've learned something... This way of selling is simply unbeatable!"

He looked at Chu Xuan as if seeing a god of wealth.

In no time, a large crowd of cultivators swarmed Chu Xuan's stall once more, their gaze towards him altered.

Why hadn't this man displayed these items during the first three days? Why wait until they had nearly spent all their spiritual stones? That's too wicked!

Chu Xuan beamed, "Come, come, come, I have demonic pills and talismans, all fairly priced, no deception here!"

These items were essentially spoils of war he had collected, making for a business venture with pure profit. No matter how much he sold, it was all gain.

Now, with these items displayed, the order of the market was thoroughly disrupted. There were always people with some spiritual stones left, and naturally, they bought the demonic pills and talismans from his stall. Their purchases forced others to gather funds to buy as well.

Soon, with the Deity Transformation cave about to open, every cultivator was a competitor. The strength of an opponent meant weakness for oneself! Any cultivator with a bit of sense could not sit by and let this happen.

They had to buy—even if it meant swallowing their pride.

However, some grouped together, aiming to show their fangs at Chu Xuan. One of them raised an arm and shouted, "Everyone! We must resist such a dishonest merchant! We cannot let this unscrupulous businessman take our spiritual stones!"

This statement garnered immediate support.

"That's right! We must resist!"

"Unscrupulous merchant, return our spiritual stones!"

"Enough talk, let's band together and take down this cheat!"

Chu Xuan gestured casually. Long and Bao, each standing to one side of Hu, radiated an aura of ferocity only slightly less intense than Hu's. Clearly, they were also Corpse Commanders.

The entire crowd of cultivators fell into a dead silence.
