Zombie Cultivation Across Worlds

Chapter 2 – Zombies are human, yet not human

Outside Clear River City.

Chu Xuan tore off He Liang's face skin and casually tossed it into the river.

"A makeshift human skin mask is really uncomfortable to wear."

He rummaged through He Liang's storage bag and nodded slightly.

"Eighty small spirit stones, one medium spirit stone, three bottles of Revitalization Pills, one bottle of Spirit Rejuvenation Water, a large barrel of demonic beast blood, plus He Liang's spiritual power. Not bad, not bad. Killing and looting is indeed the fastest way."

Chu Xuan smacked his lips.

Just now, in that abandoned house, he had taken advantage of He Liang's unpreparedness to launch a sneak attack and firmly control him.

First, he interrogated He Liang about the situation of the righteous sect cultivators, then used the Spirit Snatching Technique to drain He Liang's spiritual power.

Finally, he naturally peeled off He Liang's face skin to make a temporary human skin mask and escaped with his life.

"But can I escape forever?"

The cultivation technique I practice requires a large amount of living beings' blood every time I break through a minor realm. The Gu insects I raise also need to consume a large amount of living beings' flesh and blood to improve. If they can't be fed for a long time, they will backfire."

Every time I

Chu Xuan had heard it many times and was indifferent to it.

To him, as long as it was fed, the Blood Steel Wire was no different from a tame cat or dog.

Before long, the Blood Steel Wire returned to Chu Xuan's palm.

It had a cleanliness obsession and had already cleaned itself thoroughly.

Chu Xuan nodded slightly.

The Blood Steel Wire didn't eat just anything.

It preferred human flesh and blood.

Next was demonic beast flesh and blood.

From this, it seemed that zombies could indeed serve as feed for the Gu insect.

In that case, zombie blood should also be usable for cultivation.

Without further ado, Chu Xuan began searching for zombies.

Before long, he found three innocent passersby—no, passing zombies—in the vicinity.

The Blood Steel Wire obediently tied up their hands and feet.

These three zombies were full of energy, constantly howling even when bound by the Blood Steel Wire.

Chu Xuan found a large barrel from his storage bag and slit the throats of the three zombies to drain their blood.

Moments later, the barrel was filled.

The remaining corpses weren't wasted, as the Blood Steel Wire burrowed in for a feast.

Chu Xuan immediately activated the Blood Transformation Technique.

This spell was learned in the first layer of the Blood Transformation Spirit Snatching Technique. It had no offensive power and was purely for refining blood.

At most, it was a lower-grade Qi Refining spell.

The blood before him was continuously absorbed, impurities and filth removed, gradually transforming into pure energy.

After completely removing impurities from a large barrel of zombie blood, only a few thumb-sized blood pearls remained.

These were blood pearls.

Though they were refined from zombie blood, Chu Xuan didn't mind.

Demonic beast blood, Gu insect blood, mortal blood, zombie blood—there was no distinction of high or low, noble or base.

As long as it could make him stronger, it was good.

He swallowed the blood pearls in one gulp and began refining them.

Moments later, he showed a joyful expression.

It really worked!

He could feel his spiritual power growing stronger.

"At this rate, I'll soon master the fifth layer of the Blood Transformation Spirit Snatching Technique."

Chu Xuan's expression was filled with excitement.
