Immortality Starts With Diligence(Xianxia Litrpg)

18. Zombie-refining Technique

Lin Fei learned about the background of the old Taoist from the mouth of the young Taoist.

As it turned out, the old Taoist was a cultivator who unexpectedly acquired the technique of corpse cultivation. He wanted to create powerful iron corpses, so he went to great lengths to kill some Body Refining martial artists, especially those who practiced hard martial arts, to create zombies.

The reason why the old Taoist stayed in this abandoned temple was that it was located in a deserted area not far from Su City. Many travelers would choose to rest here for the night, and the old Taoist would wait for them here and ambush them.

There were five zombies in total, three of which were created by killing martial artists in the temple. This allowed the old Taoist to refine a powerful iron corpse.

"Cultivator..." Lin Fei was surprised to learn that there were cultivators in addition to martial artists. He was amazed by the mysterious abilities of this cultivator.

According to the young Taoist, the old Taoist was only at the second level of Qi Condensation. However, he was able to control five terrifying iron corpses.

Without a martial artist who could use the "Shock" technique like Lin Fei, the Body Refining martial artists would be no match for these iron corpses. This was truly terrifying.

"By the way, where is the Zombie-refining Technique?" Lin Fei asked.

"It's in the old Taoist's arms," replied the young Taoist.

Lin Fei hurriedly went forward to search and found a small object that looked like a turtle shell. It was palm-sized and covered with densely packed words.

Lin Fei was overjoyed. If he could practice this technique, wouldn't he also become a cultivator?

"How do I cultivate the Zombie-refining Technique?" Lin Fei asked.

"This...the old Taoist said that it requires aptitude. The aptitude required for this type of cultivation is one in a million," replied the young Taoist.

"Aptitude?" Lin Fei frowned.

"This precious jade is the item the old Taoist said could identify aptitude for cultivation. If the jade emits light when held in your hand, it means you have the aptitude. If it doesn't emit any light, then you don't have the aptitudes."

Lin Fei held the jade in his hand and waited patiently, but after a long while, the jade didn't emit any light.

It seemed that Lin Fei didn't have any qualifications.

"Do you have the aptitude?" Lin Fei asked the young Taoist.

"I...I have the aptitude, but it's very difficult to cultivate the Zombie-refining Technique. I've just started to feel the Qi, so I'm still a beginner and haven't even reached the first level of Qi Condensation. According to the old Taoist, it takes about three years for me to reach the first level."The young Taoist spoke cautiously.

Lin Fei fell silent and looked at the Zombie-refining Technique written on the turtle shell.

He had a system, perhaps he could try it. So he silently memorized the mantra of the Zombie Technique.

"The Zombie-refining Technique rejects you because you don't have the aptitude for cultivation."

Suddenly, the voice of the system sounded in Lin Fei's mind.

"Uh..." Lin Fei's face froze.

"Rejected...rejected for cultivation..."

It was the first time Lin Fei had encountered such a situation. Even the system said he didn't have the qualifications for cultivation.

It seemed that the Zombie-refining Technique was destined to be out of reach for him.

"Humph, what's the point of being a cultivator? Even if you become one, you'll still be killed by me! Once a martial artist becomes strong, even if it's just acquired or innate, they're very powerful!"

Lin Fei didn't really care about not being able to become a cultivator, but the methods of cultivators were indeed very strange. Sometimes, they were even difficult to defend against.

This young Taoist was a bit troublesome.

"Young Taoist, what do you think I should do with you? If I let you go, who knows if you'll seek revenge for the old Taoist? As a cultivator with various methods, you might hide in the shadows and cause trouble for me. The best way is to eradicate the roots of the problem and eliminate any future troubles. What do you think?"

Lin Fei's words made the little Taoist's soul tremble. The little Taoist was very clever, and he understood what Lin Fei meant.

"I...I have a way to make you completely trust me.

In the Zombie-refining Technique, there is a Heart Pulse Technique. As long as you use it, you can sense me at any time, even if I have malicious intentions, you will know, and I will die with just a thought.

And, although I haven't even reached the first level of Qi Condensation, I can still cultivate. I'm young and have potential. Even the old Taoist said my aptitude is decent.

If I can reach the first level of Qi Condensation or even higher in the future, I can help you a lot.

Yes, martial arts cultivation. Since you are a martial artist, you will need external help and medicine to become acquired or even innate.

If I become a cultivator, I can refine the medicinal pills needed for martial arts cultivation for you."

Lin Fei's eyes lit up.

Medicinal pill! This was good stuff.

Even Body Refining martial artists needed medicinal pills.

However, medicinal pills were too expensive within the Nine Profound Sect and were not something Lin Fei could afford.

But with the little Taoist, especially if he had a decent aptitude, if he became a cultivator in the future, he could refine medicinal pills.

This would be very useful for Lin Fei.

"Heart Pulse Technique?"

Lin Fei carefully examined the Zombie-refining Technique.

Sure enough, there was a secret technique called the Heart Pulse Technique.

Once the heart pulse technique was used, the caster could control the other person's blood. Unless the other person broke through the level of Qi Condensation, they would not be able to undo it.

As for what was above the level of Qi Condensation, there was no record in the Zombie-refining Technique. But it was definitely very difficult to reach that level.

"Okay, little Taoist, offer your blood and I will use the heart pulse technique. After that, I will spare your life."

Lin Fei spoke slowly and made his decision.
