Great Demon Leader: Start By Refining Flying Zombies

Chapter 19: Corpse Storage Bag

As Liang Xiao was amusingly surveying the shops on Spirit Treasure Street,

his storage bag hanging from his waist suddenly started to agitate.

Liang Xiao reached out and pressed down on the restless storage bag, using his spiritual sense to probe inside.

Inside the storage space, there was nothingness, no glimpse of light, and the space was cramped.

Pandora was lying inside in a rather awkward position, her cheeks puffed up, using both hands and feet to pound the walls of the storage bag.

"Pandora, what are you doing?"

Upon hearing Liang Xiao's question, a wave of emotions came through their spiritual connection.

Pandora became even angrier, pounding the storage bag with greater force, even using her wings, causing the bag to stretch tightly.

In order to avoid attracting attention, Liang Xiao stuffed the exotic beauty into the storage bag.

Although she didn't need air and didn't have claustrophobia, it was still uncomfortable after a while.

Liang Xiao sighed. The intelligence of zombies was too high, and sometimes it wasn't a good thing.

But seeing that his low-level storage bag was about to burst, he quickly promised, "Just bear with it a little longer, I'll get you a corpse storage bag as soon as possible, and I'll definitely satisfy you then!"

Pandora's movements slowed down, and through their spiritual connection, she expressed some confusion. She didn't have much knowledge about the cultivation world.

Liang Xiao pinched his other thin storage bag and said impatiently, "It's for your use, I guarantee it will make you comfortable!"

Upon hearing Liang Xiao's promise, the emotions through their spiritual connection finally calmed down.

Pandora folded her wings and curled up in a half-believing, half-doubtful manner, and the storage bag hanging from her waist also quieted down.

Since he had promised Pandora, Liang Xiao was also happy to do it. He quickly found a shop selling finished Law Weapons with Xu Qingfeng.

"Low Grade Law Weapon, Gentle Breeze Sword, made entirely of refined iron with a little bit of blue steel mixed in. The sword is silent and extremely sharp!"

"Shopkeeper, how much does it cost?"

"Three hundred spirit stones, with a discount!"

"Take it!"

...

Just as Liang Xiao stepped into the shop called Hundred Treasures Pavilion, he saw a woman in white armor holding a sword-shaped Law Weapon, familiarizing herself with its feel.

She flicked her finger on the blade, causing it to ring out, and casually formed a few sword flowers, emitting a chilling and elegant aura.

It was obvious that she had a profound foundation in mundane swordsmanship.

However, ordinary martial artists couldn't use Law Weapons and couldn't afford three hundred spirit stones, so she should be a cultivator.

Liang Xiao stared at the flying sword Law Weapon and then touched the storage bag containing Pandora, feeling a sense of regret.

In the future, raising Pandora would require a lot of resources. He didn't know when he would be able to afford his own flying sword.

Perhaps he could use Pandora as a mount and fly on her?

Pandora in the bag and Liang Xiao were in sync with each other. At this moment, she sensed that he was having some crooked thoughts and immediately expressed her dissatisfaction, causing the storage bag to shake again.

Xu Qingfeng calmly glanced at Liang Xiao's storage bag, thinking that there might be a monster inside. But monsters were living creatures and couldn't be stored in a storage bag.

"Shopkeeper, I want to buy something!"

Seeing the white-clad woman who had bought the flying sword leave, Liang Xiao walked up and said to the old shopkeeper.

The old shopkeeper smiled when he saw another customer and put the spirit stones in his hand into the storage bag, welcoming him.

First, Liang Xiao assessed the cultivation level of the other party, and once he had a rough idea, he said, "Fellow Daoist, what kind of Law Weapon would you like to buy at the Hundred Treasures Pavilion?"

"I wonder if the shopkeeper has any corpse bags for sale?"

Liang Xiao observed the other person's expression. Although corpse bags were not even low-level Law Weapons, they were often sought after by cultivators who refined zombies.

Generally speaking, cultivators of this kind naturally aroused the vigilance of others.

Because those who refine corpses and use corpse bags are either practitioners of evil methods or demonic cultivators with inheritances.

Upon hearing that Liang Xiao wanted to buy a corpse bag, Xu Qingfeng, who was standing beside him, was slightly surprised and subconsciously glanced at the storage bag that had been moving earlier.

As for the shopkeeper, although he took a quick glance at Liang Xiao's white hair, his expression remained unchanged. He lightly tapped the counter with his fingers, showing a thoughtful look.

"A corpse bag? Not many people want this item. I'll have to go to the storeroom and see if we have one!"

After that, the shopkeeper pounded his lower back and lifted the curtain behind the counter, walking into the back hall.

Liang Xiao felt slightly relieved and looked at Xu Qingfeng with interest, saying, "Fellow Daoist Xu, are you worried that I am a demonic cultivator?"

Xu Qingfeng chuckled twice and clasped his hands, saying, "Fellow Daoist, you're overthinking it. For independent cultivators, everything is for cultivation. There is no distinction between right and wrong. I'm not that narrow-minded!"

Liang Xiao nodded, and Xu Qingfeng's normal attitude, which was no different from an ordinary person, made him slightly relieved.

"Unfortunately, sir, although we still have a corpse bag in the store, it has some special features, so the customer will have to consider it for themselves!"

Soon, the shopkeeper returned with a corpse bag made of black animal skin. Its specifications seemed different from the ordinary corpse bags Liang Xiao had seen in the sect.

"Shopkeeper, what is this?"

Liang Xiao furrowed his brows slightly. He only needed a regular corpse bag.

But the one the shopkeeper brought out was not only larger than the usual corpse bags, but also had a strange texture when held in his hand, indicating that the material of this corpse bag was special.

"What kind of animal skin is this?"

Liang Xiao was puzzled as he touched this special corpse bag. The black animal skin on its surface had natural patterns, and after looking at it for a while, he even felt a slight dizziness.

The shopkeeper also shrugged and said, "Don't look at me, I don't know what kind of monster's skin it is."

"This corpse bag was mortgaged to me by an independent cultivator several years ago. Later, I heard that he died in the mouth of a monster, so I made a loss-making deal again. Sigh!"

"So, if you want it, I'll sell it to you at cost price, fifty spirit stones. I hope to make some profit."

The market price of a corpse bag generally ranged from forty to sixty spirit stones, so fifty spirit stones was not an inflated price.

However, after weighing the special corpse bag in his hand, Liang Xiao raised his suspicions and said, "Shopkeeper, is there something wrong with this thing?"

The shopkeeper grinned and calmly said, "What could be wrong? This corpse bag is of extraordinary quality. The internal space is unusually large. If it weren't a bit old, and if not many people were interested in buying it, I wouldn't be willing to sell it to you at such a low price!"

Liang Xiao remained noncommittal and extended a trace of his spiritual sense into the corpse bag. As expected, he found that the internal space was nearly twice as large as the usual models.

However, after a moment, Liang Xiao discovered a problem. He rolled his eyes and said speechlessly, "Where are the array patterns? Why isn't there a Yin Gathering Array pattern? Shopkeeper, you're really deceiving!"

Although both the corpse bag and the storage bag were spatial Law Weapons, their functions were different.

The former was used for storing corpses and often had Yin Gathering Array patterns engraved inside, which had a beneficial effect on zombies.

The latter was used for storage and had array patterns that isolated the inside from the outside. Even perishable items placed inside the storage bag would be preserved to some extent.

A corpse bag without array patterns was basically like buying a house with drafts everywhere or buying a good car with only the shell.

If a zombie was placed inside, over time, the Yin Qi would likely dissipate, posing a risk of cultivation regression.

Seeing that the other party was not a novice and had clearly seen a proper corpse bag before, the shopkeeper couldn't help but look bitter and said, "If there were array patterns, why would I sell it to you? Just by looking at the internal space, you can tell that this is definitely a corpse bag of the Intermediate Law Weapon level, worth over a thousand spirit stones!"

Liang Xiao shook his head and was about to throw the corpse bag back and go to another store to take a look.

However, through their mental connection, Pandora conveyed a different emotion to him, causing him to change his mind.
