Austin fixed his eyes on the fifteen corpse demons around Jim's remains.
He licked his lips, much like a predator ready to devour its prey.
'These corpse demons are much stronger than those in my bag, ' he thought, eyes sparkling in total joy.
He excitingly jumped up and landed beside Jim's corpse.
The gnome followed and moved to Austin's side.
Since his soul was destroyed, Jim also lost his chance of coming back to life and reincarnation.
But the spiritual sense marks Jim had attached to the corpse demon's spiritual souls were still inside them.
Therefore, they were still loyal to Jim.
They were still on a mission to protect his remains.
Watching Austin and the gnome approaching, they put on a twisted, minister look on their faces.
They released black putrid corpse miasma and dashed towards the two intruders together.
The gnome had already read Austin mind. 'He plans to take these corpse demons and make them work for him.
He doesn't need my help, ' he thought as he watched Austin.
He exerted Space Teleportation and stood aside.
Looking excited, Austin released all his physical strength.
He launched a single punch, which had a force of hundreds of thousands of pounds, toward the corpse demons.
Suddenly, the four corpse demons who had been hit retreated some steps backward and fell on the ground several hundred meters away.
The slate flooring was crushed, and four big holes were drilled on it.
However, the corpse demons instantly stood up from the ground.
As if nothing happened, they darted at Austin for another attack.
'They are strong. That's great, ' Austin remarked.
A gleam shone in his eyes as he was eager to fight such strong enemies.
'Looks like the fifteen corpse demons not only have higher battle force. Their endurance and physical powers are also stronger compared to the five corpse demons I have tamed, ' he thought, nodding his head in recognition.
It would be to Austin's advantage if he could also tame those corpse demons.
After witnessing their real strength, he decided not to waste any more time testing them.
He extracted fifteen flashes of spiritual sense and controlled them to penetrate the fifteen corpse demons' heads. Each ray of spiritual sense was enormously powerful.
Soon after, Austin found spiritual marks which Jim had left in the corpse demons' heads.
He observed those spiritual signs carefully and discovered that Jim had controlled those corpse demons using the Corpse Controlling Spell.
'The Corpse Controlling Spell he cast is the same one I had mastered, ' Austin exclaimed in surprise.
However, to Austin's dismay, Jim's spiritual sense was far stronger than his.
That was why the spiritual signs he had made were more complicated than the signs Austin created.
'I got to master Corpse Controlling Spell from the jade slip, which the Ghost Sect leader owned.
How did Jim learn Ghost Sect's Corpse Controlling Spell?' Austin wondered.
He obviously had no clue as to how Jim got affiliated with the Ghost Sect.
Getting over his curiosity, Austin activated his spiritual sense power and erased the spiritual signs created by Jim.
He then attached his own spiritual sense to the corpses' spiritual souls and left his own marks.
Soon enough, he had the corpse demons under his control.
The fifteen corpse demons stopped attacking Austin and instead stood around him.
Austin and the gnome laid their eyes on Jim's body, which was left unguarded.
"It seems like there are some valuable treasures inside this old man's remains," the gnome noted.
The gnome was apparently well-acquainted with treasures.
He had inherent sensitivity to various kinds of precious natural resources.
His words greatly piqued Austin's interest.
He lightly reached out to Jim's body with his hand containing soft vital energy force.
The next second, the dead man's remains turned into ashes and fell onto the floor.
That moment, Jim, the former master of the castle, had vanished entirely from the world along with all his remains.
Meanwhile, two essential items were among the ashes.
A green seedling, which was covered in grey specks of dust, immediately drew Austin's attention.
