Chapter 1162: The Strongest Heavenly Corpse? (2/2)

“Senior Qu!” He exclaimed, immediately attracting the attention of Qu Yi, Ji Yuanquan, and Ye Wenhan.

All three God domain experts fixed him with puzzled looks.

Nie Tian took a deep breath and said aloud, “Someone is trying to turn this Star Behemoth into a Heavenly Corpse! A one of a kind Heavenly Corpse whose power is hardly matched throughout this starry river, and can cause huge trouble to Ancientspirits and outsider grand monarchs!

“However, now that it has regathered part of its discarnate soul, it has regained a bit of its self-awareness. It has expressed that this isn’t what it wants.”

Qu Yi was astonished. “Can, can you communicate with it?”

“I can’t.” Nie Tian shook his head, pointing at the bone. “But it can.”

“The Heavenly Corpse Sect!” Ji Yuanquan and Ye Wenhan exclaimed at the same time.

Throughout the human and outsider domains, the Heavenly Corpse Sect was the only force that could refine corpses into Heavenly Corpses.

Therefore, as soon as they heard ‘Heavenly Corpse’, the first thought that came to mind was the Heavenly Corpse Sect, which had vanished for ages.

Nie Tian shared the same suspicion.

“Is it really Feng Beiluo that’s behind this?” He thought to himself.

Qu Yi’s expression flickered as well. “Turning a dead Star Behemoth into a Heavenly Corpse? I can’t believe that the Heavenly Corpse Sect is actually so daring. However, I don’t think the current sectmaster of the Heavenly Corpse Sect is strong enough to do such a crazy thing. Unless...”

“Unless what?” Ye Wenhan asked.

Even Qu Yi himself was scared by the thought. “Unless the founder of the Heavenly Corpse Sect is still alive! But he died so long ago. Come to think of it, he actually had this crazy dream of finding a dead Star Behemoth and turning it into a Heavenly Corpse when he was alive.

“However, he was annihilated before he could find one. I doubt that the current sectmaster of the Heavenly Corpse Sect has entered the God domain.”

Hearing this, Nie Tian jumped in. “Are you talking about Feng Beiluo? He has probably entered the God domain by now.”

Qu Yi was taken aback. “What?! Have you met him? And where?”

“Well, I have, and he should be at the God domain now,” Nie Tian answered vaguely.

“If that’s the case, then this makes sense,” Qu Yi said, while pondering the matter. “Then what about those Stone Golems? Do they have something to do with the Heavenly Corpse Sect too?”

“Those dead Stone Golems were also part of the sacrifice,” Nie Tian answered.

Flabbergasted, Ji Yuanquan said, “There were nine Stone Golems. Eight of them are dead... So are you saying that they were also sacrificial offerings that were used to awaken the Star Behemoth? What about the tenth grade Stone Golem grand monarch? Don’t tell me that...”

Nie Tian nodded. “He was also part of the sacrifice. If there are no mishaps, it won’t be long before he’s refined by the Star Behemoth and truly becomes a part of it. So that Stone Golem isn’t the one behind this. It’s someone else.”

“Did it tell you all this?” Qu Yi asked with a stern face.

Nie Tian touched the bone before him and nodded slightly. “The person behind this hasn’t gained full control of this Star Behemoth. That’s why it has a residual soul awareness, and was able to communicate with this bone of mine through their unique bloodline talent.”

“Where is this person?” Qu Yi asked in a grim voice.

“Not here in the Shatter Battlefield,” Nie Tian answered. “But even the Star Behemoth can’t locate that person by just relying on its residual soul awareness. However, that person’s sub-soul is manipulating the Star Behemoth’s reviving soul. I can give it a shot.”

SHEW!

With these words, Nie Tian cast the bone out with great force.

Like a falling star, it shot into the part of the Star Behemoth’s head where evil spirits were swarming.

“Sub-soul?” Qu Yi said with a cold smile. “As long as that person’s sub-soul carries an independent will, I have every reason to believe that I can ferret that person out!”

With these words, he also cast his Void Mirror towards the revealed part of the Star Behemoth’s head that was as large as a continent.

As he did, his soul shadows flew out of it one after another, blending into the sea of evil spirits as if to search for something.
