Chapter 35 Collecting Bronze Corpses Again
"No wonder so many people are willing to take a gamble even if it means losing everything they have. Once a person has broken through to the membrane realm, those who are not too ambitious can just pick a few shops to register, and that will be enough for their whole family to live a life without worries about food and clothing." Walking on the street, Qin Ziling thought that by registering a shop name in the "Hua Yun" powder and rouge shop, he would have an extra five taels of silver in his pocket every month. If he needed to make a profit, he would get extra rewards. He couldn't help but feel emotional.
However, although he felt that the money was easy to make, Qin Ziling had no intention of joining more companies.
If he added a few more companies, he would only earn an extra twenty or thirty taels per month, but at the same time there would be a lot more trivial matters, and it would be quicker and more efficient than hunting on his own.
Moreover, ever since he heard Zuo Le's words that day, he has been thinking about training the membranes all over his body. However, the conditions are not yet ripe and he has not put it into action. Once he puts it into action, you can tell with your toes that the amount of tonic medicines he will need will be many times more than those who only train their hands and feet.
How can a few dozen taels of silver a month be enough?
Besides, Liu Xiaoqiang would need more than one thousand taels of silver to fully recover from his injuries. How could it be enough with just a few dozen taels of silver every month!
The final destination will definitely be hunting.
Just hang up one and do some superficial work, so that you have an excuse to say later on, that will be enough. If you do more, it will be missing the point and the loss will outweigh the gain.
Soon, Qin Ziling returned to the martial arts gym and started practicing martial arts madly.
Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.
As autumn deepens, the weather becomes cooler.
Late at night, in the forest on the east side of Xisheng Mountain.
A giant at least three meters tall, covered in a black cloak, was walking in front, followed by a bearded man about one and a half meters tall, wearing a black nightgown.
Not long after, the giant and the bearded man came to a cliff in the forest.
The cliff is covered with green vines, some of which are thicker than an adult's arms and have dense branches and leaves.
Standing at the foot of the cliff, the giant suddenly stretched out his long arms, grabbed the 1.8-meter-tall bearded man around the waist, stretched out one hand to grab a thick vine, and then, as agile as a monkey, he climbed to a height of 100 meters in a few seconds.
Then the giant pushed aside the vines and green leaves, revealing a cave entrance that was almost as tall as a person.
The giant first put the bearded man into the cave entrance, and then he bent down and entered the cave entrance himself.
About ten meters into the cave, it suddenly becomes spacious and open. It turns out to be a karst cave covering an area of about two to three hundred square meters, with the highest point reaching more than ten meters.
"Luckily, we found such a spacious and secluded place a few days ago. Otherwise, this bronze corpse cannot be seen in the light, and many things would be difficult to do." The bearded man muttered to himself, and then said to the giant covered in a black cloak: "Big Ape, keep an eye on the cave entrance."
The giant said nothing, turned around and walked to the entrance, standing still like a statue.
The big bearded man was Qin Ziling in disguise, and the giant covered by the cloak was naturally the bronze corpse of the Tongbi Lingyuan.
Qin Ziling had two bronze corpses of long-armed apes. He called the first one he subdued "Yuan Da".
Seeing that the ape was guarding the entrance, Qin Ziling gently pinched the little finger of his left hand with the thumb and index finger of his right hand. With a thought, a gust of cold wind suddenly arose in the cave, and then another bronze corpse of a giant ape appeared in front of Qin Ziling.
"From now on, you will be called Yuan Er." Qin Ziling said to himself, then took out the bowl, brush and knife that he had prepared long ago.
First, he burned the knife to disinfect it, then cut his wrist and took out half a bowl of blood. Then, just like last time by the ancient well in the backyard of Chixiao Temple, he used a brush dipped in blood to repeatedly draw the two runes on the chest and back of the bronze corpse, allowing the blood to gradually seep into the bronze corpse along the runes.
At first, the bronze corpse didn't react at all, and Qin Ziling didn't feel anything strange.
However, Qin Ziling already had experience, so he was not in a hurry at all. He continued to paint calmly and slowly.
When the bowl of blood was almost consumed, Qin Ziling suddenly felt a blood connection with the bronze corpse.
"It worked!" Even though he already knew the result, Qin Ziling couldn't help but show great joy on his face.
From now on, he has two subordinates at the Jinli realm.
"It seems that the layers of the skin membrane are different. I don't feel dizzy even after losing so much blood this time. I might as well subdue the four-headed strange birds in one go. Anyway, I have meat and medicinal herbs to nourish myself every day. Even if I lose some blood and energy, I can replenish it soon." After the great joy, Qin Ziling had an idea and moved out the four-headed strange birds with broken wings and continued to bleed and draw talismans.
However, to Qin Ziling's surprise, these four bronze corpses of strange birds were much more difficult to subdue than the bronze corpse of the Tongbi Lingyuan. It took him two large bowls of blood before he could feel the connection between them by blood and flesh.
"Huh!" Qin Ziling put down his brush, feeling dizzy. He sat down on the ground, raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and said to himself with lingering fear: "Good fellow, no wonder this fellow was the most powerful in my memory. He actually needed to consume so much blood . Fortunately, I am taking supplements every day and I am in the membrane realm. I have abundant Qi and blood. Otherwise, I really can't hold on."
After talking to himself with lingering fear for a while, Qin Ziling felt indescribable satisfaction and joy in his heart when he looked at the two three-meter-tall bronze corpses of Tongbi Lingyuan and the four-headed bronze corpse of a strange bird with a wingspan of nearly ten meters and four heads as big as lanterns.
"After my body recovers, I can start to polish and refine the membranes all over my body. Once the membranes all over my body are polished and refined to the level of cowhide, I can take the three bronze corpses deeper into the mountains to hunt ferocious beasts. Unfortunately, refining the soul seal requires reaching the level of distraction, and I can't condense the soul seal now. Otherwise, if I could condense the soul seal and merge it with the soul seal left in the bronze corpse by Li Mo, I could control the bronze corpse over a long distance, and then I could completely hide behind the bronze corpse."
"Haha, a martial artist at the Skin Membrane Realm not only has the spiritual cultivation of the Object Driving Realm, but also has three bronze corpses that he can use as easily as his own arms. Yet he is still not satisfied. I am really greedy!"
As he thought about it, Qin Ziling couldn't help but burst into laughter.
After the laughter stopped, Qin Ziling tried to command the three bronze corpses at the same time in the cave.
Under his command, the three bronze corpses could move forward and backward freely, but the distance could not exceed twenty meters, which was twice as much as last time.
Qin Ziling estimated that this should be related to the growth of his body and soul, so it was not too surprising.
But there was one thing that made Qin Ziling a little depressed.
His brain was unable to control the three bronze corpses for a long time, and after a while, he started to have a splitting headache.
This also means that his greatest fighting power cannot last long!
