In the blink of an eye, a week had passed since Chen Yiming dug out the 10,000-meter-long corpse.
This was the first time that humans had discovered such a huge creature. The entire Daxia Kingdom was in an uproar because of this, and it was even more intense than when Jiangnan province had successfully established a stronghold in the otherworld.
Not only had the capital sent a group of high-ranking officials and a large number of experts and professors to Jiangnan City, but the two martial masters from the north and south almost went over as well. However, in the end, they still placed the defense of the nation first and only sent people over instead of going personally.
The reason for all this was that Chen Yiming had said that the corpse would constantly emit essence energy, creating a better cultivation environment.
Because of this, meetings were held one after another, and the corpse from deep underground was still temporarily placed at the entrance of the space-travel passage.
On the surface, the military martial arts experts were guarding it, but Chen Yiming had also arranged for the spiritual figure to watch over it in secret. He wasn’t guarding against humans spying on them, but against powerful creatures from the otherworld who might try to steal the corpse.
…
In the provincial government office, the head of the office, Zhang Cheng, was holding a document in his hand, but his face was filled with panic. He asked, “How should we reply?”
Wang Ronghui frowned and could not come to a decision even after a long time.
The document was from the capital regarding the disposal of the 10,000-meter-long corpse. The opinions from the capital and the Jiangnan provincial government differed when it came to where to place the corpse.
The proposed location in the document was in the northern plains, and there were many reasons supporting it.
Chen Yiming had mentioned that while the corpse was constantly emitting essence energy, it might also transform the surrounding living creatures into monsters.
This phenomenon could not be explained. It was what he had observed in the mysterious space deep underground. However, could this phenomenon still happen if the corpse was brought back to the blue planet? It could not be verified yet.
As a top official of the Daxia Kingdom, Wang Ronghui’s suggestion was naturally more appropriate from the perspective of the Daxia Kingdom.
After all, Jiangnan province was a large coastal province. Not only were the cities in the province densely populated, but the surrounding provinces were also in a similar situation. This corpse that contained an uncontrollable risk should be placed on the sparsely populated plains.

However, for Jiangnan province, at the same time that they mitigated this unknown risk, they would also lose a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Furthermore, the space-travel passage where the corpse came from was in Jiangnan province, and it had been personally dug out by Chen Yiming from the depths of the otherworld.
If he let go of this opportunity so easily, he could predict that the name “Wang Ronghui” would one day be cursed by all the people in Jiangnan province.
Wang Ronghui thought about it again and said in a low voice, “Technically, since the corpse wasn’t dug up by the Jiangnan provincial government, we don’t have the right to decide how to deal with it.”
Zhang Cheng understood what he meant and nodded. “Alright, I’ll deal with it now.”
…
While everyone was still discussing how to deal with the corpse, Chen Yiming had already left Jiangnan City. He entered the wilderness alone and cultivated as usual.
In reality, the essence energy released by the corpse in the mysterious underground space was all converted into Skill Points at once. After that, it was as if he had entered an enlightened mode, and his interest in the corpse decreased greatly.
Now, he was more concerned about how to use these 17,000 Skill Points.
There were two ways to use his Skill Points. The first was to upgrade the swordsmanship talent of the sword spirit, which was the spiritual figure, to Level 5.
After killing all the ghosts in the mysterious underground space, the requirement for upgrading to the Level-5 swordsmanship talent had decreased by nearly 10,000 points. In other words, he only needed to get another 3,000 Skill Points.
The second was to upgrade the Undying Body talent to Level 3, and the Giant Talent to Level 2.
Both options had their advantages and disadvantages. With a Level-5 swordsmanship talent, he was almost certain that the spiritual figure would undergo a qualitative change and break through to the same level as the treants. However, he still needed to wait and accumulate more Skill Points.
The second plan only required 6,000 Skill Points to increase both of his talents. After the upgrade, he would still have more than 10,000 Skill Points left. For Chen Yiming, the Undying Body talent increased his combat strength at his current level, while the Giant Talent allowed him to obtain the abilities of the giants and achieve a breakthrough in his cultivation level.
As for the Level-2 Giant Talent, it was almost certain that it would not allow him to break through from his current level. It was more likely that he would unlock another ability of the giants.
This made him feel extremely conflicted. He could not decide what to do.
At night, Chen Yiming decided to go home.
As soon as he entered the house, he saw Zhu Song sitting on the sofa in the living room, chatting with Father Chen.
The two of them were quite close in age, and it was as if there was no generation gap between them. Father Chen had a happy expression on his face as they chatted non-stop.
Chen Yiming was surprised.
Logically speaking, Zhu Song should be staying in Jiangnan City at this time to fight for the corpse for the capital on behalf of the northern cities.
“You’re back! Your subordinate… your colleague has come to look for you several times!” Father Chen greeted Chen Yiming when he entered the house.
“It’s about Yuan Chengwei. The higher-ups haven’t been able to make up their minds, so they had no choice but to send me over.” Zhu Song laughed and explained his motive for visiting.
“I’ve been cultivating outside and just returned,” Chen Yiming replied.
It was not appropriate to talk about Yuan Chengwei at home.
The two of them exchanged a few more pleasantries before Chen Yiming suggested that they go out for a meal.
After Chen Yiming and Zhu Song left the Chen family’s house, Mother Chen asked Chen Yingying curiously, “Didn’t Yuan Chengwei appear on television some time ago? What happened?”
Chen Yingying also had a puzzled expression on her face. Ever since Yuan Chengwei went to the toilet that day, she had not seen him again. Even when the representatives from the Jiangnan Martial Arts Academy left, he had not been with them.
Therefore, she shook her head, indicating that she did not know either.
Father Chen, on the other hand, seemed to have guessed something. He instructed, “Yingying, don’t think too much about it. Your brother found so much miracle blood for you. You should focus on your martial arts.”
Chen Yingying nodded and continued, “Then I’ll go back to my room and apply the miracle blood.”
…
At the East Lake Hotel, “Welcome!”
The long-legged receptionist at the door, who was wearing stockings and black high heels, bowed enthusiastically and extended her hand to invite them in.
Although it was only a scene he saw in passing, Chen Yiming had still caught it from the corner of his eye. The lady had been smiling the entire time, not knowing that she had a wardrobe malfunction.
The two of them asked for a private room and ordered a full table of dishes. Zhu Song also ordered a bottle of expensive white wine.
Soon, the wine and dishes were served.
Zhu Song did not continue the topic with Yuan Chengwei. He first talked about the news brought back by the military investigation team.
The three teams did not find any more traces of the treants, but they found a cave hundreds of kilometers away.
After a simple exploration, they turned back at the first fork in the path and did not dare to go any further.
The exploration team found some marks left behind on the stone wall. They judged that they were probably used as road signs, which meant that intelligent creatures had entered the depths of the cave.
Hearing this, Chen Yiming thought that the treants must all have died.
The ability to split did not mean the ability to recover from injuries.
Since the reconnaissance team could not find any traces of them even after searching for hundreds of kilometers, it was almost certain that other than the pawns left behind on the blue planet, the split-up treants had all gathered around the space-travel passage.
Since he killed almost all the treants at once, unless the treants had a talent similar to his Undying Body, and that talent was at an even higher level,
otherwise, it would be impossible for the treant to recover completely from such a serious blow to both its body and mind.
He was certain that the treant had already died after being ambushed by him and the spiritual figure.
Next, Zhu Song talked about Yuan Chengwei. “That day, you crushed him to death underground. After we dug him out, the other party suddenly turned into a treant and attacked.”
“Was he pretending to be dead? Or did he die in its place?”
Chen Yiming’s interest was piqued.
Zhu Song explained, “After that, they dissected the corpse. There were two types of cells in the body, so he should have died in its place.”
After that, Zhu Song continued to describe the situation of the battle.
Yuan Chengwei, who had turned into a treant, had actually mobilized the power of nature to launch three attacks. If not for the fact that the four-man team from the capital had once been defeated by Rover from the Sam Nation and had experience fighting against martial masters, they might have died in battle.
After Zhu Song finished speaking, he finished the white wine in his glass in one gulp and smiled bitterly. “At that time, we didn’t dare to approach the opponent and only dared to follow from afar. However, for some reason, Yuan Chengwei, who had become a treant, suddenly died.”
Chen Yiming nodded his head.
Of course, he knew the reason. The three huge treants had been ambushed by the giant that had descended from the sky, and their main body had been completely destroyed. It was not strange for their clones to die on the spot.
Next, the two of them chatted as they ate. Not long after, the dishes on the table were finished.
As for the white wine, Chen Yiming didn’t drink it. Zhu Song finished it all by himself.
Before they left, Zhu Song’s face was red. He sighed in his drunken state. “The difference between the half-step master realm and the master realm is like the difference between heaven and earth. In the two battles at the master realm, we were in a sorry state and almost died.”
After sighing, he expressed his hope that Chen Yiming could give them some pointers.
Chen Yiming was taken aback. He had thought that Zhu Song was going to ask about the 10,000-meter-long corpse, but Zhu Song had not even brought up this topic.
Seeing this, Zhu Song thought that Chen Yiming was troubled. After all, strictly speaking, the four of them were under another martial master.
Therefore, he took the initiative to end the topic.
In reality, Chen Yiming had relied on the abilities he had obtained from upgrading his Giant Talent. He naturally knew how to mobilize the corresponding power of nature in a way that was similar to an instinct.
Therefore, it was not possible for him to teach others how to use it.
The main reason was that he did not dare to teach them since he did not actually know it.
When spiritual power came into contact with the power of nature, it was easy to control for those who could do it. Those who could not would at best suffer heavy spiritual damage, and at worst, their spiritual power would be extinguished on the spot.
It could be said to be an extremely risky attempt.
It would be troublesome if there was a problem due to his wrong teaching. Losing four people who were half a step away from the master realm was not a small matter for the Daxia Kingdom.
…
The next day, after another night of consideration, Chen Yiming decided to keep things as they were for the time being to deal with any unforeseen situations flexibly. He wanted to rest comfortably at home for a day.
However, Wang Ronghui called to tell him some bad news. Not long after one of the soldiers in charge of guarding the corpses returned to the blue planet, his entire body suddenly became deformed. He turned into a monster and started a massacre.
Hearing this, Chen Yiming’s expression turned solemn.
“As expected, there’s a reason why the corpse is buried so deep underground.”
Carrying his doubts, he rushed to the scene of the accident.
…
In a large shopping mall in Jiangnan City, the building was badly damaged. The walls were full of holes and broken glass.
At this moment, the surrounding streets had been sealed off by armed soldiers. On the rooftop of the nearby buildings, military martial arts experts were in charge of guarding the area.
In the sky, three helicopters were circling around. Soldiers were speaking through loudspeakers to maintain order in the city.
Chen Yiming walked over and scanned the mall with his spiritual power. There were a total of eight people in two groups, one of which was the four-man team from the capital.
In addition, a monster’s corpse was lying in a pool of blood. Broken limbs could be seen everywhere nearby, and many people had died.
Wang Ronghui was already waiting outside. When he saw Chen Yiming, he quickly walked over and asked the soldiers to clear a path for him.
“Have you dealt with the monster?” Chen Yiming asked in a low voice.
“At the time of the incident, a meeting was being held in the province. The people sent by the two martial masters from the north and south were both present, so they were able to provide timely support to kill the monster,” Wang Ronghui explained as he led the way to the mall.
After that, he added, “Now, all the people who have interacted with the 10,000-meter-long corpse have been arranged to return to the otherworld. At the moment, there hasn’t been anyone else who has shown any abnormalities.”
Chen Yiming nodded and entered the mall with Wang Ronghui.
Two groups of people were surrounding the corpses of the mutant creatures. When they saw Chen Yiming enter, they automatically moved to the side.
From their expressions, it could be seen that the relationship between the two groups wasn’t that good. They seemed to be at odds with each other. However, as soon as Chen Yiming entered, they made way for him respectfully.
Chen Yiming had no interest in the conflict between the two groups. He looked at the deformed monster’s corpse and saw that it had been nailed to the ground by an arrow.
His face had long lost its human characteristics. His facial features either became bigger or smaller, or changed color. In short, he had become extremely ugly.
In addition, its body was covered in thick fur, and it had a long tail covered in barbs. It also emitted a disgusting stench.
“How strong was the monster?” Chen Yiming asked.
The other group of people wanted to answer, but Ling Zhongyun quickly stood up and said,
“The power mastered by the monster is not the same as ours. During the battle, I felt that it was a type of corruption.
This kind of power did not have the defensive ability to protect one’s internal force. It pursued extreme offensive power, and felt extremely invasive.
The other party’s aura is equivalent to the warrior realm, but it neutralized a portion of the materialized spiritual power I released. It’s very dangerous.”
Chen Yiming’s eyelids twitched.
Was he that powerful?
From the aura, it was a little like a ghost from the 10,000-meter-long corpse possessing a human body.
As for the ghosts, he and the spiritual figure had killed countless of them in the mysterious underground space, whether it was with the Sword Aura or his fists.
In short, other than their numbers, there was nothing else that he was worried about when it came to the ghosts.
However, on second thought, while the ghosts might not be able to do anything to him, it was different for others, including the treants who were at a higher level than him.
According to Ling Zhongyun, the deformed monster was clearly much weaker, but it could still injure humans who were half a step away from the master realm.
This way, the supernatural power mastered by the monster was worth paying attention to.
In the blink of an eye, a week had passed since Chen Yiming dug out the 10,000-meter-long corpse.
This was the first time that humans had discovered such a huge creature. The entire Daxia Kingdom was in an uproar because of this, and it was even more intense than when Jiangnan province had successfully established a stronghold in the otherworld.
