"Now that we have that out of the way, it's finally time for me to get some needed practice!" Clark murmured as he escaped once more into the night.

He did not even have to go out as he just used another pseudo teleport using the switch skill with his Blood Twin.

And for the first time in this new day, our good gamer has visited once more his favorite setting for an adventurous trip. A barren desert.

This has become his usual playground to conduct his odd and myriad experiments with. Alas, it was only unfortunate that he could not use the same spot he went to earlier because it was nighttime at that place.

Clark instead searched for another fresh desert venue that has still a lot of sunlight left in them.

"BLINK!"

"BLINK!" two figures arrived one after the other. One wore an azure robe while the other person donned on a black cultivator's garb.

The former was of course Clark and the latter was his newly converted disciple.

"Tell me your name." Clark said unto the old man before him.

The dead assassin has no more cover on his face and Clark could see clearly enough that he was like them old goats from the Lu Family that he had seen earlier.

The undead killer's countenance was already well assaulted by time and its heartless changes.

"I am Tan Zan, master." the dead assassin answered promptly.

"Tell me, Tan Zan... do you hate me for killing you?" Clark was curious to know the answer to this question.

"It is my honor to be murdered by you, master. This has given me the chance to serve you in death and I will most certainly not fail your expectations from me."

Tan Zan nodded gravely as if these very words were now the mantra for his existence. Reêad latest novels at novelhall.com

It would have been good to hear this kind of pledge at other times but at this moment, the feeling that Clark felt was absolutely far from delight at all. It gave him the chills and creeps instead.

"What's happening here, Nancy? I thought that these people retained at least their humanity in them. How come this old dude seems even happy that I put an end to his miserable life?"

Clark asked the system for guidance.

"Corpse Reincarnation, although powerful, still cannot defy the ancient laws of life and death, host.

This person may appear living as both his mind and body could provide evidence to his continued existence but the same could not be said to his soul.

This summon is nothing but a soulless heap of meat. It could not anymore feel any emotion of love and hate nor could it dream and retain obsessions of the heart. It is nothing but an empty shell.

A faded copy of its true self. Nothing more, nothing less." Nancy responded.

"Hmmm... A bit disappointing."

"And here i thought that this technique was like Edo Tensei wherein the summons could still feel and even give priceless warnings and advice to their foes when they were forced to fight their loved ones."

"Oh well, not even I can change this skill's description. But i wonder how good it would be if i could somehow create new spells and fashion them exactly like i wanted."

"I would be invincible if i had that ability!"

Clark was lost in his thoughts and has not been able to escape from it until the 30th breath. And when he did, Clark only had one order for his first NPC summon.

"Attack me."

But this... This was way way more exciting!

"More. Chase me some more!" Clark commanded with a smile and the gamer in him could not have been more alive than the present.

He looked like a child that had a close friend running at him in a cat and mouse game. If someone was around to see this, they would have no doubt sprouted questions left and right.

'How good would it feel if this was Ning Xi or Tang Xinyue instead?!' Clark muttered but the play never relented.

The game lasted for more than 20 minutes until our good gamer finally had his fill in playing hide and seek with his newest summon.

"That was a great workout, Tan Zan. Thank you." Clark said to his able practice partner.

Although this person was no longer human as he already lacked the most vital component of being one but Clark has not the heart to treat Tan Zan like a cold unfeeling toy. At least, not yet.

"It is my pleasure to be of service, master. Use me as you will. My existence only has meaning because of your will." Tan Zan replied like a trained crazy fanatic for ages.

'It's weird having a masochist follower around. And to think that it will only increase with time.'

'SIGH!'

'But i guess i will get used to this sooner or later.' Clark contemplated in silence because from this point onward, corpse reincarnation will have to be used unto sentient entities that he would kill in the future.

It was just too impractical to use them other else since people that can talk have a lot more uses than having them mute monsters that could only growl and roar for speech.

At least by doing this, Clark would have more strategic uses for his summons.

'But this much must remain a secret for now!' Clark decided. He did not want to get tagged as an evil cultivator this early in the gameplay.

'Do my summons from corpse resurrection also gets revived when obliterated, Nancy?" Clark asked, checking if he has more facts from this skill that he may have mistakenly assumed to be right.

Just like his misconception about his summons' souls earlier.

"Affirmative, host. The creatures that are summoned using the Corpse Resurrection Ability are almost indestructible. The same also applies to the Create Skeleton Skill. And in the event that they do get destroyed, recreating their bodies would only take one second at the most." Nancy replied.

"FUCK ME! This is a broken skill indeed!" Clark's eyes widened in disbelief.

This was too good to be true and so he could not help but entertain doubts about this information. In the end, our bored gamer was forced to ask to assuage his uncertainties.

"Do they have any weakness at all, Nancy?"

"Affirmative, host. If this skill is unbeatable in this world then the system would have already banned the use of such an ability.

It would make your experience extremely easy and the Elder God behind me wouldn't like that at all.

Corpse Resurrection and Create Skeleton can only be unmade by using holy skills and this world has a big organization that specializes in that rare field. The Buddhist Monks and Priests.

This powerful group of cultivators are based centrally in the Holy Continent and prided themselves as the b..." Nancy answered in length but Clark was already deaf to the system's succeeding words.

All he could hear ringing audibly inside his ears was this familiar catchphrase...

"AMITABHA!"

"Sweet!" Clark's excitement bubbled up to the brim. He spent a few precious seconds inside his fantasy world before waking up with a nagging question in his mind.

"Tan Zan." Clark called.

"Command me, master!" Tan Zan complied readily.

"Why does the name of your secret techniques sound so lame?"
