I Examined Corpses in the Heavenly Prison and Became a Martial Arts Legend

After transmigrating into the high-martial world of the Ming dynasty, Chu He becomes the lowest-ranking, ninth-grade jailer in the Celestial Prison.

The vicious head jailer forces him to take poisoned wine to the gravely wounded leader of the Demon Cult, sending him to his death in someone else's place.

Just as Chu He thinks he's about to die, his fingers touch an old man's corpse.

"Ding! System bound! Contact with the remains of a first-rate master detected!"

[Acquired: sixty years of pure cultivation!]

[Acquired: the ancient supreme art, Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms!]

[Acquired: a secret memory revealing where the ledger is hidden that proves the Grand Secretary has embezzled disaster relief funds!]

Chu He is stunned. Other people train until their meridians are shattered, while I can reach the highest level just by touching corpses?!

From then on, the Celestial Prison becomes his private ATM for peerless martial arts.

He touches a Jinyiwei officer who died suddenly: [Acquired the peerless lightness skill, Wave-Traversing Steps!]

He touches a beheaded master swordsman: [Acquired the Nine Swords of Dugu!]

Looking at the court's officials and the martial world's renowned masters, Chu He gazes at them greedily. "Great masters, when are you planning to die?"
