Undead Mage from a Cell
Chapter 763 - 761: Gains from Yalidu City
"Master, please take me with you."
Wang Datong watched from afar as bolts of lightning descended from the sky, magnificent yet harmless. How could he not understand that this was a rare opportunity?
Wang Datong didn't want the Li Family's Daughter to claim all the benefits, so he immediately ran to Gu Xi.
"Master, whatever Miss Li offers, I can offer double. Please, give me a chance."
Upon hearing this, the Li Family's Daughter became anxious and quickly stepped forward, saying, "Wang Datong, what do you mean by that? Can't you see me happy?"
"Miss Li, that's unfair of you to say. In matters like these, isn't it the highest bidder who wins?
Are you saying you want to monopolize the master?
Master, I know you emerged from the Underworld and have nothing good on hand.
But what I have is the unique Living Ghost Corpse Transformation Technique, something the Underworld doesn't have.
I'll offer you the original copy of the Living Ghost Corpse Transformation Technique. Just please grant me half the lightning."
Wang Datong was someone willing to take risks.
He promised to offer it and genuinely handed over his Living Ghost Corpse Transformation Technique.
Before Gu Xi could react, his hands were already holding a black leather-bound book.
Gu Xi opened the book and took a look inside.
What he saw shocked him.
This was clearly a path cobbled together, combining Undead Transformation, Ritual Magic, Dark Magic, Light Magic, Magic Potion Making, and Corpse Bone Research among various different approaches.
It's unclear how Wang Datong managed to stumble onto it.
But somehow, Wang Datong had navigated most of this path. All he needed was a Grass Returning Pill and another Thunder Tribulation for the Living Ghost Corpse Transformation Technique to succeed.
At that point, he could leap from the ranks of the Ghost Immortal to become an Earth Immortal (Level 40).
This was Wang Datong's goal.
After all, he had already reached Level 39 and was stuck at a bottleneck.
Without some other method to stimulate him, he couldn't leap beyond the Ghost Immortal, and would remain so for life.
As an Immortal (a high-level being), while life seemed long, there was actually an upper limit.
Unless a top-tier Immortal Pill was consumed, most Immortals also eventually reached the end of their life.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many Immortals reincarnating and retraining, nor so many Immortal remains left behind.
Wang Datong was betting everything on this one chance to cross this hurdle.
Thus, anything related to the Thunder Tribulation made him very sensitive.
After Gu Xi finished reading the book, he said to Wang Datong, "Step in yourself. After this, follow along. When we stop to rest, you can join us.
Whatever benefits there are, you'll receive them."
"Young Master, this isn't fair. I've been working tirelessly all along, and he just gives you a simple book. Yet, he gets half the benefits." πππ¦β―πΈπ¦ππππ·β―π.πππ
"You can choose not to take it."
Gu Xi said indifferently.
Gu Xi was now accustomed to some situations in this world.
With two strong teams of Undead as protection, even without alliances, Gu Xi wasn't worried about safety.
Gu Xi could afford to act willful, knowing someone would back him up.
Like now, with a simple tug, the Li Family's Daughter, despite some reluctance, didn't oppose Gu Xi.
In the end, Gu Xi's Death Incarnation-Titan bore the burden.
He stood there with the Thousand Thunder Peach Wood Sword, striking left and right at the Li Family's Daughter and Wang Datong.
With each full-force attack, neither of them lost any health.
Gu Xi initially watched with interest but later, finding it dull, turned to handle his own matters.
Through the special mirror on his left wrist, Gu Xi communicated with Luna, discussing affairs in Yalidu City.
The items he just sent back were already taken care of by Luna and her team.
The most crucial of these was the Corpse-Disintegration Immortal Remains Gu Xi sent in.
Through research by Luna and Eve, it was discovered that this could serve as an Earth Vein.
So, it was temporarily buried in Yalidovitar, though not yet activated. This required Gu Xi to come and utilize the Dragon Burial Vein.
However, Luna estimated.
Once the Corpse-Disintegration Immortal Remains were activated, a stronger-than-normal Negative Energy source would emanate from Yalidovitar, spreading towards the Yaliduvi Districts conquered by Gu Xi.
This would influence the generation of Negative Energy within the Yaliduvi Districts.
Considering the current territory size of the two districts, it would take about three years for this stronger and purer Yin Qi to replace Negative Energy, becoming the official energy source for the operation of both districts.
By then, the level of Gu Xi's Death City might not see a significant upgrade, but the quality of its infrastructure and residents would improve.
Of course, this estimate is based on the current state of the two districts.
If, within these three years, Gu Xi conquered the other five sections of Yalidov.
The time for Yin Qi to assimilate Yalidov would be extended.
But as Luna said, it wouldn't exceed ten years at most.
After observing the survival capabilities of players in the real world.
Gu Xi was no longer so impatient.
To Gu Xi, ten years might just be a period of rest.
So after Luna buried the Corpse-Disintegration Immortal Remains in Yalidovitar, Gu Xi didn't rush to activate the Dragon Burial Vein.
In Gu Xi's view, it wasn't yet time to return to Yalidu City.
Oh, they also buried the complete dinosaur skeleton that Gu Xi bought from the Black Market.
In Luna and her team's idea, burying something related to dragons seemed essential in the Dragon Burial Vein.
The level of the dinosaur skeleton was comparable to the Corpse-Disintegration Immortal Remains, and theoretically, the two could fuse into one.
So they simply buried them together.
Now, they're just waiting for Gu Xi to return and handle it.
Additionally, two players who ambushed Gu Xi were killed by the Li Family's Daughter, one by one.
Because Gu Xi initiated the battle, the kills also credited to Gu Xi.
Under the influence of Gu Xi's Talent, Yalidu City gained two new undead: a Level 25 Skeleton Soldier and a Level 27 Ghost. Regardless of their type, they had their own Combat Auras.
Upon hearing this news, Gu Xi felt more confident.
Although still not quite on par with Miss Li and Wang Datong, in case of any incident, Gu Xi could release his own powerful subordinates to aid in battle.
No longer needing to rely solely on the Death Incarnation, who could fight endlessly without causing even a scratch on Miss Li or Wang Datong.
