Drunk Immortal Gourd

The remnant soul is actually the broken soul of a high-level monk. After the death of ordinary people, it is just a stream of unconscious energy, which will soon disappear due to some external interference; after the death of a low-level monk, the soul has a certain memory, and can only be regarded as a conscious energy, and because of the low-level The monk's soul is too fragile and can only be maintained for a short time.

Unless it is due to some special reasons, some consciousness energy does not dissipate by chance and becomes stronger and stronger, and eventually becomes a ghost cultivator. As the ghost cultivator's strength improves, he will gradually restore some memories of his life, and slowly condense them into shape to regenerate his body. However, such bodies are generally relatively fragile, at least much worse than those of monks of the same level.

As for high-level monks, because the soul itself is relatively powerful, if they can maintain their appearance after death, they can also retain most of their memories during life. If the opportunity is right, they may be able to be reborn. The remnant soul in this jade Buddha has been preserved for who knows how many years, but it still maintains its original appearance. His previous cultivation level must have been quite high.

"Young man Qingyang, I wonder what you call me, senior?" Qingyang cupped his hands and said. No matter what happens to this one-horned old man now, his past cultivation must have been higher than Qingyang's, so he deserves to be called a senior.

"How to call me? Are you asking for my name?" The one-horned old man murmured, and then he looked like he was thinking. After a long time, he said: "I can't remember clearly. There seems to be someone in my memory. He once called me the One-Horned Ghost King."

"One-horned Ghost King? Are you a ghost cultivator?" Qingyang asked in surprise.

The old man who called himself the One-Horned Ghost King said blankly: "It seems so."

Those who can leave residual souls are not necessarily high-level monks. If high-level ghost cultivators have their bodies broken up and their souls shattered, they may end up like this. This one-horned old man should not be a ghost cultivator like Zhenren Netherworld, but a ghost cultivator who was trained by real ghosts.

Qingyang doesn't know much about ghost cultivators, but he also knows that those who can become ghost kings must have at least the Golden Core Nascent Soul stage or above. Such a cultivation level is already considered the top level in Jiuzhou Continent and can pose a great threat to him. Young Master was beaten like this.

After this period of understanding, Qingyang knew that there were very few ghost cultivators in Jiuzhou Continent, and he had never heard of a high-level ghost cultivator anywhere. The ghost cultivators that occasionally appear are either from the outside world like Zhenren Netherworld, or they are low-level ghost cultivators that have not been around for a long time. They act completely on instinct, are bloodthirsty and cruel, and can easily be killed by the righteous monks of the Immortal Sect. . Therefore, this one-horned ghost king should not be from the Kyushu continent.

It seems that Master Netherworld is right. Jiuzhou Continent is indeed just a small place. The outside world is very vast. When your cultivation level is higher, you must go out and explore and see what the outside world of cultivating immortals is like and the ultimate level of cultivating immortals. Exactly how.

But that’s all for the future, and I still don’t know if I can get to that point. Qingyang turned around and asked, “Why is Senior hiding in this Jade Buddha?”

The one-horned ghost king thought for a while and said: "I can't remember the details of the situation. I only remember that I seemed to have been injured by someone and almost completely dissipated. Only a ray of remnant soul escaped, and then I met a statue. The jade Buddha made of soul-nourishing jade hid inside and fell into a deep sleep, and could only wake up once in a while when it sensed the ghostly energy."

"What is Yinming ghost energy?" Qingyang asked doubtfully.

The one-horned ghost king paused for a moment and said: "Yinming ghost energy is a general term for the true energy of all ghost monks, such as the common zombie corpse energy, ghost ghost energy, the ghost energy of ghost monks, as well as the crypt and yin energy. The yin energy produced by the pulse can allow ghost cultivators to improve their cultivation..."

After listening to the one-horned ghost king's explanation, Qingyang finally understood that ghost monks are different from ordinary immortal cultivators. Ordinary immortal cultivators absorb spiritual energy from the outside world, refine it into true energy in their bodies, and store it. The ghost monks absorb the Yin Qi in the underground caves and Yin veins, and what they cultivate are ghost Qi and underworld Qi. These things are all called Yin Ming ghost Qi.

The One-Horned Ghost King is a ghost cultivator and is sensitive to the ghost energy, so he wakes up every time he senses the ghost energy. The previous owner of the Jade Buddha was not aware of this and regarded the One-Horned Ghost King's awakening as a manifestation of a divine Buddha. Eventually, it was said that the Jade Buddha was very efficacious.

The One-Horned Ghost King woke up today, and it seems that he must have sensed the ghost energy of Yin Ming. As for the source of ghost energy, it is very simple. It must have come from the real person Netherworld. Qingyang watched Master Netherworld fight Helan Feng at close range, and was slapped by him in the end. He must have been injured a lot by the ghostly energy of Netherworld, so he could feel it when he picked up the Jade Buddha.

I remember that when we were on the River Island in Kaiyuan Mansion, Hong Mantian once said that if we could refine the remnant soul in the Jade Buddha, wouldn't we have an extra fighting helper? Now that I think about it, that is just to deceive everyone. How can a ghost king level remnant soul be refined by a pulse-opening realm monk? Maybe before you can refine others, you may be devoured by them first.

Ghost monks are different from ordinary monks. Ordinary monks are bound by the rules of the immortal sect. The world of immortality is in order, and most monks will not do anything too outrageous.

The ghost cultivators are different. Many of them have bloodthirsty and cruel instincts. There is no order at all among the ghost cultivators. Because the ghost energy of the underworld is common to each other, it is common to plunder other people's ghost energy for one's own use. It is extremely common to kill and plunder each other.

Of course, just like human monks, ghost monks must have good and bad qualities, but compared with ordinary monks, this chance is much lower, and the possibility of being encountered by them is even lower. Especially the Ghost King, who has been practicing for countless years, is so cunning and cunning that a small cultivator in the Opening Pulse Realm cannot handle him, and he might fall into a trap at some point.

This one-horned ghost king looks ignorant and seems to have lost a lot of memory, but who knows whether all this is true or false? Maybe he was just pretending to be confused to confuse himself. To be cautious, Qingyang felt that he had better withdraw his spiritual thoughts as soon as possible and let the ghost king continue to sleep, lest he accidentally fell into the trap of the other party.

When Qingyang was thinking, the one-horned ghost king showed a trace of hesitation on his face, but he still couldn't open his mouth. At this moment, seeing that Qingyang's spiritual thoughts were about to withdraw, he finally spoke in desperation, saying : "Little friend Qingyang, don't worry, listen to a few words first. I have been sleeping in this jade Buddha for countless years. I have woken up many times before, but no one has ever been able to enter my conscious space. Look, My dear friend, I am also a monk. I wonder if you can do me a favor?"
