Austin had a go at the head of a corpse general, unleashing his spiritual sense at it. As he had
expected, he soon found a flash of spiritual sense that was exactly like the one left by the Altar Owner
of the Ghost Sect.
Without hesitation, Austin erased the flash of spiritual sense as the Altar Owner had instructed him to.
The flash disappeared without leaving any trace.
Austin then extracted one flash of his spiritual sense and using a special tactic that was sure to
succeed, pushed it towards the corpse general. Sure enough, it penetrated into the head of the corpse
general, whose spiritual sense Austin had just erased.
Austin was suddenly overcome by the amazing feeling that the corpse general and he had been
connected inseparably since forever. It was probably because of the flash of his spiritual sense, but
what really surprised him was that they could understand each other just through their minds.
It felt like he was in complete control of the corpse general. Whatever telepathic order he gave, the
corpse general would do as told, without thinking twice.
"Walk to the entrance of the cave," Austin ordered the corpse general in his mind.
It was to no one's surprise that the corpse general strode towards the cave's entrance as soon as it
received the order from Austin's mind.
"Go back to where you were."
Austin's second order also went straight through to the corpse general's mind.
On receiving it, the corpse general turned around and went back to its original position.
'It is unbelievable that I can control the corpse general! That's so lucky!'
Austin was surprised and overjoyed.
In the same way, Austin erased the Altar Owner's spiritual sense off the mind of the nine other corpse
generals and filled their minds with his own spiritual sense.
Austin was finally completely in charge of the ten corpse generals.
Austin issued an order with his mind, and soon, the ten corpse generals lined up inside the cave
according to Austin's command.
"I have already controlled the ten corpse generals, but it will be weird to be followed by them all the
time. I don't really want to draw people's attention, especially those who are trying to hurt me. What am
I going to do? Is there anything I can do to change the situation?"
It suddenly occurred to Austin that it was really a problem to be solved, and the only person from whom
he could seek answers was the Altar Owner. So he did exactly that, asking the Altar Owner how to
solve this problem.
"Since you have controlled the ten corpse generals, you are more powerful than before. Of course,
there is no need for me to cheat you now. I will tell you everything about the corpse generals.
You can keep them in a corpse nourishing bag when there is no need for them to show up.
This is what a corpse nourishing bag is," Altar Owner said to Austin, pointing to a small bag tucked into
his belt.
On hearing the Altar Owner's answer, Austin began looking for the bag, and soon enough, found a
small black one. The moment he saw it, he quickly grabbed it and turned it around to check if it was
what the Altar Owner was alluding to. Soon, he realized that the corpse nourishing bag was quite
similar to the Space Ring in function. Both of them had extensive and integrated spaces within to keep
things inside, while they themselves were small in size.
Austin faced the ten corpse generals, opened the corpse nourishing bag, and gave an order with his
mind. The ten corpse generals were transformed into a ray of light and absorbed into the corpse
nourishing bag.
Austin was satisfied because now, he could use the bag to keep the corpse generals concealed and
not worry about being spotted by anyone else.
"What about the other lower dry corpses? How can I control them?"
Austin asked the Altar Owner, eager to know more about the corpses.
"You can control them with a simple corpse flag. It's quite easy."
Austin hurriedly began searching the Altar Owner for a corpse flag. In no time, he found a small black
flag, the exact corpse flag he was looking for.
"That's great! Since you have told me everything I want to know, you are now useless to me. I will give
you a quick death," Austin said, grabbing the Altar Owner's neck tightly and gave it a quick twist.
The Altar Owner had known that Austin would not keep him alive and he didn't have the chance to say
anything else. The moment his neck snapped, he fell to the ground, dead.
"Violet, let's get out of here. I feel uncomfortable here," Austin said and walked out of the cave.
Several hours later, Austin and Violet finally got out of Ghost Valley.
As for the several hundred dry corpses at lower strength, Austin had neither the intention nor the
interest to deal with them. As far as he was concerned, he already had the ten corpse generals and
they were powerful enough to help him beat his rivals.
The gnome stayed close to Austin, having become attached after spending some time with him.
"Master, what are you going to do next? I'm afraid that people from Flaming Sun Valley and Blood Wolf
Team are still searching for you."
Violet asked, as they arrived at the gates of Ghost Valley.
"Imperial capital city! Our next destination is imperial capital city. Let's go!"
Austin answered without hesitation, having already decided to go to imperial capital city.
"Violet, during our trip to imperial capital city, I'm going to cultivate the Wind-commanding Skill. You'd
better stay in the Illusion Bead so that I can focus on my cultivation."
"Alright, master. I want to better my cultivation too. There is enough powerful crystal left to support my
cultivation for a period of time," Violet said before going into the Illusion Bead for her cultivation.
Meanwhile, Austin used his bodily movement skill to speed up his journey, and sought to fully
understand the Wind-commanding Skill along the way. It was unsurprising that Austin was advancing
towards wild places that no one else dared go, and that was so that he could be alone, away from
crowds.
The gnome was small enough that it was now squatting on Austin's shoulders.
Austin was at level three of the Wind-commanding Skill: Using the wind.
After rushing ahead for a couple of days, Austin immersed himself in an appreciation of the Wind-
commanding Skill.
As he advanced, Austin could feel the change in vital energy in both his legs as well as the change of
the wind between his body and the space around him. Every time he sped up, he felt an inexplicable
circulation of energy. He had no idea about it, but he expected to find a reasonable rule and benefit
greatly from it.
