Blood Sacrifice To Millions Of Zombies, I Will Be A Demon Cultivator In The Apocalypse

Chapter 98: The Gourd Sword in the Gourd Temple, the Gourd Sword Slays the Gourd Immortal!

At this moment, Zheng Yi was already sweating profusely, but he still suppressed his emotions and his expression became even more relaxed.

The external gourd completely permeated his body.

With his eyes slightly closed, through his inner vision, he could already see that at some unknown time, a fleshy gourd directly enveloped his heart, forming the shape of a gourd-shaped temple.

"The Five Organs Temple Feeding Deity Great Method, also known as the Five Organs Temple Worship Deity Great Method, requires the five organs to refine the five temples to be used for deity worship..."

"But is what I have now a Gourd Temple?"

At the same time, outside the temple of Taishan Fuzhun, which had expanded into a large complex, a huge mound grew on its own, quickly transforming into the shape of an upright gourd ladle.

In the blink of an eye, the gourd ladle grew to a height of four or five zhang, becoming the size of a small house. It was solemn and dignified, surrounded by the fragrance of incense and blue smoke. It turned out to be a gourd temple that no one had ever seen before.

The strange thing was that there were no deities or spirits worshipped in the gourd temple. It was empty, but there was a sword standing on the high altar.

The surface of the sword was blurry, but it exuded an extreme sharpness, a terrifying aura like the Opening Heaven Sword, making people shudder at the sight of it.

It felt as if with just one more glance, the next moment the sword would fly down and cleave oneself in half.

"The Gourd Sword in the Gourd Temple, the Gourd Sword Slays the Gourd Immortal!"

At this moment, as the instigator, Zheng Yi naturally could clearly sense what was happening outside the gathering place. The moment the huge gourd temple rose in front of the temple of Taishan Fuzhun, he sensed it.

Because all of this was originally part of his plan.

As for the other people in the gathering place, the humans of the doomsday world, where had they ever seen such a mysterious scene? They were all stunned by the scene before their eyes.

During these days, after various brainwashing by the temple priest and the continuous instigation by the upper echelons of the gathering place, the majority of the tens of thousands of people in the gathering place had already begun to believe in Taishan Fuzhun and become followers of the temple of Taishan Fuzhun.

Although the environment in the gathering place was not very good, the temple of Taishan Fuzhun was flourishing with incense. From morning till night, there were devout believers serving incense and offering prayers.

Because there were too many people, many couldn't squeeze into the temple and could only form a crowded crowd outside the temple of Taishan Fuzhun. Many people knelt on the ground, murmuring words in their mouths.

And now, they watched as a huge gourd temple rose from the ground in front of the temple of Taishan Fuzhun, growing like a tree in the blink of an eye, becoming a huge temple.

Inside the gourd temple, such a mysterious scene appeared, immediately terrifying everyone, and everyone fell to the ground in fear.

Those who were originally kneeling on the ground lowered their heads into the soil, while those who were standing were so frightened that they all knelt down in a panic.

In an instant, the crowded crowd all knelt down, not a single person dared to stand.

At this moment, the fraudulent temple priest also ran out of the temple because he was in such a hurry that he lost one of his shoes on the ground.

But there was no time to pick it up, so he ran barefoot, limping to the front of the temple of Taishan Fuzhun, just in time to witness this almost miraculous scene.

Although the fraudulent temple priest was shocked in his heart, his instinct as a fraudster played its greatest role. He shouted out loud and immediately knelt down in front, shouting loudly.

"Taishan Fuzhun has manifested, Taishan Fuzhun has manifested, everyone, let's pray together..."

Immediately, he muttered words in his mouth. These were the prayers of Taishan Fuzhun deliberately composed earlier. They seemed simple, but they contained profound mysteries.

More precisely, this was actually a ritual of sacrifice and belief, transforming the spiritual imprint left by Zheng Yi inside the statue of Taishan Fuzhun into the Five Organs Temple Feeding Deity Great Method controlled by Zheng Yi.

Now everyone was frightened and followed the fraudulent temple priest in prayer. Many of those who were originally skeptical and wavering were immediately intimidated.

Feeling that they do not truly believe in Taishan Fuzhun, will they be punished by the gods?! So their heads hang lower, prostrating on the ground, afraid to move.

The older people who have already completely converted to believers are even more tearful, with tears streaming down their faces, following the temple's fake priest in bowing on the ground, as if they have seen a glimmer of light in the darkness.

Their faith becomes more devout, and the continuous power of belief, through the transformation of incense, extends towards an unknown place in the beyond.

In the gathering place, Zheng Yi's perception cannot be deceived. The believers seem to be worshiping the Taishan Fuzhun temple and Taishan Fuzhun, but the true beneficiary is Zheng Yi, the guardian of the Taishan Fuzhun statue.

Feeling the sudden strengthening of the power of incense, Zheng Yi can even directly absorb this power of belief if he wishes, using it to complete his Foundation Building on the path of the gods.

However, at that time, he himself would have to embark on the path of the gods, which Zheng Yi would never want.

Nevertheless, Zheng Yi extends his divine sense, clearly investigating the changes in the Taishan Fuzhun temple in the gathering place. The Taishan Fuzhun statue has not been impacted, but more and more power of incense is gathering.

On the contrary, it is the giant stone sword standing in the gourd temple that undergoes slight changes after being impacted by the heavy power of belief.

Zheng Yi senses a trace of sharpness gradually gestating within the giant stone sword in the gourd temple, causing a slight tremor in his heart.

This is the reflection of incense on reality.

The flesh and blood gourd has been refined by Zheng Yi using the secret technique of the Five Organs Temple, incorporating the heart as the core, forming a gourd shrine. Similarly, under the effect of Zheng Yi's spell, it has concretely formed a gourd temple with real stones and sand outside.

Originally, the flesh and blood gourd had already gestated the embryonic form of a flying sword under Zheng Yi's nurturing.

It is one of the Five Poison Slashing Spirit Swords.

Even though the flesh and blood gourd has been re-refined by Zheng Yi, transformed into a heart shrine, the sword qi of that flying sword has not dissipated. On the contrary, it has become more solid and undergone some strange changes.

The technique of worshiping the gods in the Five Organs Temple of the Assimilating Soul Sect requires refining five shrines with the five organs, establishing the five gods, and using them to drive away spirits. It is a superior method compared to the technique of binding ghosts.

However, given Zheng Yi's character, he naturally prioritizes himself, with the five great ghost gods as secondary. Therefore, the five gods of the Five Organs Temple can only serve as auxiliary gods, standing solemnly within the Taishan Fuzhun temple.

They also receive the worship of incense, but as a result, they are suppressed and governed by the true Taishan Fuzhun, which is Zheng Yi. With a single thought, he can establish or revoke their divine positions, depriving them of their divine power and bringing them under his control.

Now it seems that Zheng Yi's plan has succeeded.

But the most crucial factor in all of this is the existence of the golden seed in his mind. It is precisely because it can resolve the negative energy of karma that Zheng Yi can arrange his thoughts in this way. Otherwise, it would be impossible to achieve.

Now that Zheng Yi has made up his mind, after he emerges from seclusion, he will definitely find another temple priest for the gourd temple.

He can find another marketing expert who can promote this gourd temple, following the example of the Taishan Fuzhun temple.

After all, he needs to establish the five ghosts, transform them into five gods, with the five great shrines as auxiliary, and the main temple being the Taishan Fuzhun temple.

It is always better to have more talented individuals who can quickly spread the faith.

Glancing over the various bustling scenes and postures of the believers in the previous Taishan Fuzhun temple and the outside world, Zheng Yi withdraws his divine sense.

He refocuses his gaze on himself, lightly sensing that the location of his heart, within his five organs, has completely changed.

Now, his entire heart has transformed into a foundation, and outside the heart, a gourd-shaped shrine emits a faint flame. The flesh and blood gourd that has been refined has long since become a fire attribute Law Weapon.

Among the five organs, the heart belongs to fire, representing the fire element in the Five Elements. After this gourd shrine was refined into the heart, it naturally became a fire attribute incense Law Weapon.

The external gourd temple continuously receives the offerings and incense beliefs of numerous believers, ultimately transforming and arriving at the location of Zheng Yi's heart, becoming nourishment for him to cultivate and raise fire attribute spiritual gods.

Those who consume qi become divine and live long.

The so-called divine spirits have no roots or origins, no parents or ancestors. They consume qi to sustain their lives.

For ordinary mortals, this is difficult to imagine, but for cultivators in the Immortal Domain, it is not that extraordinary.

The study of the power of incense and worship has been passed down through the generations. The divine spirits born from incense are no different from powerful ghosts in the eyes of cultivators; they are all a type of spirit body.

However, the divine spirits born from incense consume the qi of incense and are rooted in faith. This is completely different from the ghosts that need to devour the souls of the living. They become even more elusive and ethereal.

The foundation of the Assimilating Soul Sect's worshiping technique is built upon this.

Originally, Zheng Yi planned to use the Five Elements Sword Embryo for Foundation Building. However, now that he has obtained the ancient cultivation technique, the Blood Lotus Scripture, he has a better choice. He plans to use the Blood Lotus Scripture for Foundation Building. The five flesh gourds that nurture the Five Poison Beheading Spirit Sword have consumed a lot of resources and cannot be wasted.

At this moment, he obtained the Temple Feeding Technique, one of the three fundamental secret techniques of the Assimilating Soul Sect, which gave him another option.

By transforming the five blood embryo ghost infants into five gods, and the Five Elements Sword Embryo into the Law Weapon of the Five Elements Incense, using the five organs as the foundation, they can receive the worship of incense and condense the power of incense, thus giving birth to a unique divine ability for exorcism.

Of course, this process takes a considerable amount of time. After all, the temple has just been established, and the number of believers is very limited. The power of incense from worship is still quite weak and needs time to accumulate.

...

"Next, it's time for the blood embryo ghost infants!"

After obtaining these five blood embryo ghost infants from the Qi family, Zheng Yi brought them to the Doomsday World. It was because of this that he established the initial power base. Among all the resources cultivated by Zheng Yi, they have been nurtured for the longest time.

Originally, according to the Qi family's preparations, it would take at least three years for these five blood embryo ghost infants to mature. However, in the Doomsday World, there is an abundance of zombie flesh, which greatly accelerates the growth of the blood embryo ghost infants.

Moreover, these blood embryo ghost infants have absorbed too much zombie flesh, infecting them with the bloodline of zombies, making them even more eerie and terrifying. Each one is chubby and seems to possess higher intelligence.

Perhaps they are approaching maturity, showing great activity.

Not only can they influence others with their spirits, but they can also lure humans with their voices, making listeners unconsciously want to release these blood embryo ghost infants.

This situation has occurred several times, so this place has been designated as a forbidden zone. Even the transportation of zombie flesh is done through automated tracks, with the carriers keeping their distance.

It can be said that in the past half year, besides Zheng Yi, no one else has dared to set foot here.

Crack!

The gate opened, and in the silent underground space, a burst of baby crying suddenly resounded. The sound contained the innocence of a baby and was extremely heartbreaking, making listeners feel sad and unconsciously walk towards it.

This is the Soul-Captivating Demon Sound, a natural ability of these ghosts.

However, this temptation had no effect on Zheng Yi's ears. His cultivation has become more advanced, and he is invincible in the Qi Refining stage. He is also not far from reaching the Foundation Building stage.

Both his spiritual energy and his own Dao heart and cultivation are as stable as Mount Tai. He is much stronger than before, so the crying of the blood embryo ghost infants has no effect on his expression.

He calmly walked forward without any change in his face.

Dealing with the Assimilating Soul Sect and ghosts, Zheng Yi is an expert. Even though the blood embryo ghost infants are forbidden creatures with extraordinary potential, Zheng Yi can handle them. These small blood embryo ghost infants cannot shake his determination.

This space was carefully constructed by Zheng Yi, and the array formation has been reinforced multiple times. It is powered by zombie crystal cores and is still functioning.

The pile of zombie flesh on the core of the formation is transformed into streams of red energy under the operation of the array, flowing continuously towards the five blood embryo ghost infants, like five flowing rivers of blood.

Compared to before, the blood embryo ghost infants have already undergone significant changes. Previously, they were thin and shriveled, with wrinkles covering their skin, and a small tail behind their buttocks.

But now, one by one, they are chubby and fat, with round faces and big ears, looking like delicate jade carvings. This is the transformation of zombie flesh and blood.

However, their eyes reveal a strange black light, without any white, their mouths wide open, crying incessantly.

Although they are crying, the expressions on these babies' faces suddenly become twisted and ferocious when they see Zheng Yi. Sharp teeth grow along their mouths, exposed to the outside, immediately appearing extremely fierce. No one can see them as ordinary human babies.

These are living ghost creatures, fierce ghost demon babies, not cute human babies.

When Zheng Yi approaches them, several demon babies turn their heads at the same time, staring at him, their crying suddenly stops. In the depths of their hollow eye sockets, a greedy and ferocious gaze is released.

Although they have not fully been born, they already possess considerable intelligence. They know that the person in front of them has brought them here and is controlling their freedom, so they harbor great resentment towards Zheng Yi.

Their sharp teeth are exposed. These five ghost babies undergo a drastic transformation, their skin turning iron blue, muscles protruding, and they suddenly roar at Zheng Yi.

The sharp sound carries the power to stir souls, like a storm attacking.

A calm underground space trembles, the expressions on the faces of the five blood fetus ghost babies are extremely twisted, struggling desperately, each one wanting to break out of the blood eggshell that envelops them.

Roar!

A deep roar causes the space to tremble, ghostly energy surges, as if turning this underground space into a vibrating ghostly realm.

Zheng Yi stands calmly nearby, looking at these enraged blood fetus ghost babies. His gaze from beginning to end is like that of someone looking at lifeless objects, without any change in expression.

He knows in his heart that these blood fetus ghost babies are actually the descendants of the Qi family. Initially, the main branch of the Qi family had the unrealistic idea of using the power of their bloodline to control these ghost babies.

Once successfully refined, the main branch of the Qi family would have gained five terrifying Foundation Building Stage combat powers.

After Zheng Yi dealt with the main branch of the Qi family, although he obtained these five blood fetus ghost babies, it was actually a big problem to truly control them.

He is completely an outsider, with no relationship to the Qi family, naturally there is no such thing as bloodline influence and suppression.

So Zheng Yi's original idea was to first cultivate these five ghost babies with zombie flesh and blood, and then refine them into the Five Poison Slashing Spirit Sword, turning them into five sword embryos.

And these five ghost babies naturally became the spirits within the five sword embryos.

From beginning to end, Zheng Yi never intended to let these five blood fetus ghost babies live. Using them as sword refining materials was the best choice.

Although doing so would damage the potential of the five blood fetus ghost babies and feel a bit wasteful, without the influence of the Qi family bloodline, it would be extremely difficult to freely manipulate and suppress these blood fetus ghost babies.

And Zheng Yi would not waste his energy to benefit others, so he maximized his short-term benefits.

He acts decisively, without dragging things out, swiftly obtaining the power in front of him is the most realistic approach, focusing on securing a victory.

After all, these blood fetus ghost babies are all extremely fierce ghost creatures. Even the main branch of the Qi family, relying solely on the power of their bloodline, can suppress them temporarily. But once the ghost babies become powerful, releasing their resentment, they will still suffer backlash.

"I'm conducting an experiment today, I only need one. Since you're so eager to come out, then it's you. Come out!"

Zheng Yi has already made up his mind. These blood fetus ghost babies have extraordinary potential, and he now has a better choice, so he naturally won't exhaust all his resources and choose to refine them into spiritual weapons.

Instead, using the Five Organs Temple Sacrificial Refinement Technique, he will precisely refine these five ghost creatures into Five Divine Demon Babies, residing in the Gourd Temple, filling the five organs, and transforming into Five Spirit Ascensions, subject to his control, becoming a technique to drive away spirits.

Rip!

The void trembles, instantly tearing a hole in the shell of the largest and most ferocious blood fetus ghost baby.
