Chapter 436 Demon Corpse
Pu Yanlan frowned as she looked at the corpse.
"This is the demon clan... but it doesn't look like one..."

In the broken coffin, there lay a corpse with horns on its head. It was a naked male corpse. The exposed skin was gray-black with irregular patterns on it that looked like scales. The corpse's mouth was wide open with four fangs growing out from the upper and lower parts.

At this time, Lao Ma also saw what was under his buttocks. He was startled and leaned over to poke it with his finger.

"Soft... is it alive?"

Pu Yanlan shook her head slowly.
"No, it's dead. Now it's just a zombie..."

As he was talking, the corpse moved, its eyelids fluttered, and suddenly it opened its eyes. The corpse's eyes were dark and without eyeballs. After blinking a few times, it slowly sat up.

"He..."

The corpse faced towards Lao Ma, grinning, its four fangs opening and closing constantly, and a foul odor wafted from its mouth. Lao Ma took a step back in disgust.
"Why is it sitting up?"

Pu Yanlan said lightly,

"It smelled the life force on you. You are a demon beast with a strong aura. It's not just it... I think the other living corpses in this coffin array will wake up too!"

She was originally a ghost practitioner, so she was not afraid of these evil ghost zombies. She slowly swept her eyes over the countless coffins in the valley and saw that the lids of several coffins had been opened, and the zombies that looked like demons sat up from inside. Pu Yanlan turned her head and looked at where Que Wushuang and the other two were. At this time, Que Wushuang and Que Wu had already opened their eyes, and only the middle-aged man was still sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed to recover.

Pu Yanlan said to Que Wushuang from a distance,

"These should all be the Lord's people, right?"

Que Wushuang stood up, changing his previous weak position in front of Zhao Wuxi and others, with a somewhat proud look on his face.
"Yes, these are my clansmen..."

Pu Yanlan said calmly,
"Their bodies are already dead, but you sealed their souls inside them. And because they are human-demon hybrids, they were human in life, but after death... you must have used some secret method to stimulate the devil in their bodies, turning their corpses into demons!"

However, because the demonic nature in these people's bodies varied in degree, the demonization of their corpses after death was also different. Some only had horns on their heads, some only had fangs, and some were completely black, completely transformed into monsters!
"Roar……"

A monster jumped out of the coffin and roared at Pu Yanlan. Pu Yanlan looked it up and down calmly, then turned to ask Que Wushuang,

"This should be your ancestor from many years ago. The further back in time, the thicker the demon bloodline, and the more his appearance after death resembles a demon?"

Seeing that she could remain calm in the face of such a situation, Que Wushuang could not help but nod in appreciation.

"She is indeed the woman I have my eyes on. Your courage is remarkable!"

Pu Yanlan smiled faintly and asked,
"The ancestors are gone, why don't you let them rest in peace? Instead, you go to great lengths to move them from the mainland to the sea. You must be plotting something big..."

Seeing that she was so sure, Que Wushuang suddenly became interested. He glanced at the middle-aged man who was still meditating on the ground, and at the ancestors who were crawling out of their coffins one by one.

"Then tell me, what do we want to do?"

Pu Yanlan looked at the black, scaly demon corpse with a tail behind it walking towards her step by step. She was not panicked at all and said calmly,

"It's nothing, I just don't want to be a human anymore, I want to be a demon!"

Que Wushuang raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

"You actually guessed it!"

Pu Yanlan smiled slightly and thought to herself,

"What's so hard about this? When they met Que Wu in the forbidden area before, he said that he wanted to restore his devilish nature. If you don't want to be a demon, why restore your devilish nature? If you want to be a human, shouldn't you find ways to remove the devilish nature in your blood?"

Besides, the Juque clan makes elixirs in order to give birth to normal, non-crazy mixed-race children, but they never say that they want to give birth to children without demonic qualities!

Doesn’t this explain the problem!

She and Eleven had already discussed all this secretly, but it was none of their business. The two of them were just chatting. The most important thing was to leave here and regain their freedom. She was not interested in refining pills for the Juque clan for the rest of her life!
Pu Yanlan thought for a moment and glanced at Que Wu.
"So... you acted as a traitor in order to lure Zhao Wuxi and the others here?"

Que Wu's face darkened, he glanced at Que Wushuang, and said in a deep voice,

"My Lord, this woman cannot be kept!"

Que Wushuang's eyes showed interest.
"Right Pillar, such a woman is very intelligent. If she can give birth to a child of my demon clan, she must be extremely smart!" Pu Yanlan thought he was talking nonsense and didn't listen at all. She glanced at the demon corpse that was approaching and pointed at Que Wushuang.
"You should have a way to control them. If it comes again, I will have to do it myself!"

Que Wushuang pulled the corner of his mouth, smiled, turned his palm and took out a thin bone flute, but did not put it to his mouth to spit. Instead, he held it up and shook it clockwise. The demon corpse immediately stopped in front of Pu Yanlan. Que Wushuang did not know whether it was intentional or not, but let the demon corpse be only half a foot away from Pu Yanlan. The stench of the demon corpse came to her face. Pu Yanlan frowned, but she did not retreat. She looked the demon corpse up and down, shook her head and said nothing.

Seeing this, Que Wushuang became curious.

"Why are you shaking your head?"

Pu Yanlan said,

"This demon corpse is just a human-demon hybrid. Although you used a secret method to stimulate the demonic nature in it, it is dead after all. The demonic nature cannot keep the body from decaying forever. The best way is to continuously inject demonic energy into it..."

She thought for a while and said,
"But continuously injecting demonic energy can only keep the body from decaying. I think... you guys are going through all this trouble just to create countless zombies, right?"

When she said this, even Que Wu was surprised.

"You also know how to manipulate corpses and control souls?"

Pu Yanlan smiled and said,

"I also read some ancient books when I have nothing to do. After all, as an alchemist, I sometimes want to refine some ghost pills..."

The so-called ghost pills, also called Yin pills and Ming pills, are pills for ghosts and zombies to eat. Practicing ghost arts also requires refining pills.

Que Wushuang nodded after hearing this.
"I didn't expect you to have such a wide range of interests. So, tell me...what exactly do we want to do?"

Pu Yanlan thought for a while and said,
"This forbidden area is full of demonic energy. We have seen three different types of demons outside before. I think this forbidden area is actually where you raise demons. The formations here are all to lock up the demonic energy and prevent it from leaking out..."

He paused again and said,
"Using demonic energy to feed demon corpses does not restore their consciousness when they were alive, but..."

She cast her gaze to the center of the coffin array, to the two coffins that were larger than the others.
"However... the two coffins in the middle are unusual. They are painted with runes that can calm the soul and seal the corpse. I think these two coffins... should have spiritual consciousness... To be precise... they are not dead..."

She turned her head and looked at the two of them.
"You probably have no way to control them, so you use these coffins to form a formation to suppress them..."

After thinking for a while he said,
"These are all members of the Juque clan. They must have used a bloodline suppression method. The people lying in those two coffins should be the true ancestors of your Juque clan!"

So, it should be one person and the other a demon!
At this time, Que Wushuang and Que Wu could not help being shocked. The four of them stared at Pu Yanlan. Que Wu turned to Que Wushuang and said,
"My Lord, now I also feel that this girl can give birth to a child for you!"

Que Wushuang smiled, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
"After all this talk, everyone is awake...why not let everyone come and take a look at the future wife of the clan leader?"

After he said this, Pu Yanlan and Lao Ma looked around again, and found that they were surrounded by zombies without realizing it. A rough count showed that there were at least hundreds or thousands of them. Pu Yanlan still looked indifferent and asked,
"I just can't understand why you brought Zhao Wuxi in?"

Seeing that there was finally something that Pu Yanlan couldn't guess, Que Wushuang smiled triumphantly and said,

"In fact, some of what I told you before is true. The ancestor of my Juque clan was indeed seriously injured. If he is allowed to wake up, he must use the body of his descendants to repair himself. So we have been trying to suppress him. It's just that his body is here, but his soul is wandering in the forbidden area. The swamps and hills in front of you, as well as the three demon owls just now, are actually just clones he created with the help of demonic energy and his soul. He has been thinking of ways to use these clones to collide with the magic circle, but he was injured too badly, and he can't create a clone every moment. Sometimes it takes one or two hundred years, sometimes three or five hundred years, there is always such a time..."

Que Wushuang paused and said,
"But this time he suddenly woke up and created a clone, which is a bit strange..."

After thinking for a while he said,

"That's fine. Zhao Wuxi and the others came in and they are just right for our ancestor's clone to eat... Their bodies are for our ancestor to eat, but we need to collect their souls. Over the years, we have collected the souls of nine high-level cultivators. The only one missing is the last one. Zhao Wuxi and Lu Wubei, anyone can do it!"

Pu Yanlan frowned when she heard this, and after thinking for a while, she said,

"Soul Exchange Technique... You want to use the souls of ten high-level monks to exchange for your ancestor's soul, so that he can be used by you?"

Que Wu raised his eyebrows.
"You even know the art of ghosts?"

Pu Yanlan said lightly,

"Isn't it the same for you? None of you practice the way of ghosts, but don't you also know the soul-calming runes and formations, and the soul-changing technique?"

If you want to use the body of a powerful person to keep all his skills and abilities during his lifetime, but this person refuses to listen to you and may even kill you, then you can imprison this person's body, and then find the souls of ten people, extract only one of the ten souls, and after refining it, replace the three souls and seven spirits of that powerful person with them one by one. After that, the powerful person will listen to you. The prerequisite is that the original owners of these replacement souls must be at a higher level than this powerful person, or at least at the same level!
And since they have targeted Zhao Wuxi and Lu Wubei, that means the demon in this huge coffin is at least a demon king!
