The Secret Way of Immortality

Just as the Mother Rat's strange object was isolated in the abdominal prison, the surrounding stone walls suddenly vibrated, mixed with angry roars.

Ren Qing could clearly perceive that the movement came from the forbidden area itself.

At the end, the sound of狂风拍打树叶 suddenly rang out, and it seemed to be approaching their location rapidly.

Huang Ziwan swallowed, somewhat confused and bewildered.

Who would have thought that going to An'nan Town to complete a seemingly easy task would actually lead them into a forbidden area, and now their lives were probably in danger.

"Brother Ren... Wo..."

Ren Qing grabbed Huang Ziwan, who was still a little weak, and the black shadow possessed his legs, traversing the tunnel at an extremely fast speed.

The double pupils in his eyes rotated, allowing him to react instantly even when encountering corners.

Huang Ziwan turned his head to look behind him, and a sense of tension couldn't help but arise on his face.

He noticed that what was chasing them was not some ferocious beast, but a wave-like tide of rice husks, and he immediately felt inexplicable.

"Brother Ren, what kind of forbidden area is this?"

Ren Qing didn't reply, and the frequency of his steps increased again.

The rice husks gathered together, then formed a huge face, opening its mouth to bite at the two of them, exuding an imposing aura as if it were real.

"Old Huang, don't be polite with it."

Huang Ziwan nodded, continuously spitting out thick venom from his mouth, corroding a lot of the rice husks, but unfortunately it was useful but not very effective.

Rice husks gathered from all directions, and as long as the tunnel was connected to the kitchen, they would be endless.

The most crucial thing was that the heavy footsteps could be clearly heard from the outside, and the rice husk giant was probably gradually approaching the crack in the corner of the wall.

Ren Qing's heart tightened, and if the forbidden area's consciousness kept chasing after them, it seemed that he could only abandon the Mother Rat's strange object.

But thinking about it, he was a little unwilling.

If he didn't take this opportunity to disrupt the situation, and the forbidden area maintained its current state, let alone defile the Immortal Devouring Method, even leaving safely would be very slim.

He forced himself to calm down, observing the inside of the cave while running.

The environment did change with movement, used to mislead Ren Qing to continue deeper, but the consciousness of the forbidden area seemed a bit rigid.

Ren Qing quickly found the pattern.

The Dragon Snake Spine suddenly lashed out, directly hitting the weak part of the stone wall, and immediately disengaged after one strike, never being greedy.

After the corner, he swung the Dragon Snake Spine again.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Soon, dust began to fall from the top of the cave.

Huang Ziwan held his breath.

He saw that Ren Qing's plan was very risky, but he didn't know much about the forbidden area, so he didn't interfere with the other party's actions.

After Ren Qing felt that the time was ripe, he rushed straight towards the stone wall that seemed like a dead end.

The Dragon Snake Spine turned into a drill, sparks accompanied by harsh sounds, cracks spread in an instant, and the cave collapsed under the weight.

The giant face was pressed under the rubble, and the road was sealed off.

Ren Qing and Huang Ziwan looked disheveled, and the two were trapped in a small space, and they were safe for the time being.

"Uh..."

Huang Ziwan wiped the dirt off his face and asked with a silly smile, "Brother Ren, can you tell me the specifics of the situation?"

Ren Qing narrated the information about the forbidden area in detail, and also emphasized that he had found a clue to escape.

Huang Ziwan didn't have a better way, and then he approved Ren Qing's plan.

In the history of the Prison Warden Hall, there were many prison wardens who left the forbidden area, but because the strange objects contained in the forbidden area were different, the experience could not be used for reference.

After the two discussed, they found that it was unrealistic to find an exit in the constantly changing terrain of the cave, so they could only return to the kitchen first.

Ren Qing already had a vague idea, but putting it into practice required going to the stove, and he could also look for the Immortal Devouring Method.

"Let's stay here for a short time, and wait for the forbidden area to gradually ferment."

Huang Ziwan was about to ask how to stay for a long time, but he saw the strange mouth on Ren Qing's palm open.

Air gushed out from it, and it was also accompanied by a considerable amount of food and water.

Ren Qing estimated that with the resources in the abdominal prison, even with the townspeople, it would be no problem to maintain it for a month or two.

He sat cross-legged and visualized the Eyeless Method, while trying to get the ghost shadow to speed up digestion as much as possible.

Ren Qing's temporary and hasty closed-door cultivation, in addition to the relationship with the forbidden area, was also because the ghost shadow shouldn't take long to undergo another strange transformation.

Huang Ziwan looked at Ren Qing, who was immersed in cultivation, and couldn't help but feel respect in his heart.

He could still calm down in the forbidden area, he was a ruthless person.

He was more than ten years older, and he didn't think he could be so focused, maybe this was the reason why Ren Qing reached the Ghost Envoy Realm in a short time.

Huang Ziwan didn't bother Ren Qing, closed his eyes and rested, while checking whether there was any alienation due to the separation of his soul.

After a long time, he suddenly noticed something strange when he was about to eat some dry food.

The shadows covering the cave began to flow, and the aura became more and more unstable, with a sign of imminent collapse.

Huang Ziwan thought it was the forbidden area that was causing trouble, but then he reacted.

His eyes became complicated, as a prison warden who had experienced a strange transformation, how could he not see that Ren Qing's technique was about to transform.

Not to mention the speed of promotion.

Anyway, Huang Ziwan had been numb from the blows, and what surprised him was that Ren Qing was going to complete the strange transformation in the forbidden area, which was too reckless.

He silently retreated to the corner.

After the ghost shadow's body expanded to four meters, it returned to calm again, repeating this repeatedly.

Approaching the strange transformation, Ren Qing quickly turned his attention to the Shadowless Ghost's alienated tree in his mind, and saw that the buds on the branches were about to bloom.

He carefully checked it and found that the number of strange transformation branches of the Shadowless Ghost was far less than that of the abdominal prison, and the branches that could be selected that time were like stars.

Ren Qing browsed the strange transformation branches.

[Yin Ghost]

[Do you want to choose the strange transformation branch "Yin Ghost"]

If you choose Yin Ghost, the ghost shadow will give birth to a soul, and while the intelligence is improved, the risk of losing control will naturally increase.

The remaining strange transformation branches are more special.

For example, [Hiding Ghost] which collects the soul into the ghost shadow, or [Shadowless] which allows the ghost shadow to leave the body for a long time, or even [Ghost Possession] which uses the ghost shadow to control other people's bodies.

Ren Qing understood.

Because the ghost shadow underwent a strange transformation by digesting a large number of remnant souls, the branches were all related to the soul.

If he didn't have an alienated tree to choose from, the random strange transformation should be any one of these branches.

If you want to choose from all the strange transformation branches, you can only do it by consuming lifespan.

Ren Qing asked the ghost shadow to hold on for a moment, and then checked the information of each strange transformation branch, preparing to find the most suitable one.

The Shadowless Ghost technique, on the surface, the ghost shadow possession is the key.

However, when Ren Qing's grasp of the Jailer becomes more and more handy, the role of ghost shadow possession will inevitably decline.

So the cooperation with other techniques is the key.

Ren Qing's eyes finally fell on a strange transformation branch called [Ghost Substitute].

The ghost shadow has been maintaining the state of strange transformation for a long time, and it gradually has a tendency to lose control, which made Huang Ziwan frightened.

Seeing this, Ren Qing no longer hesitated.

The strange transformation caused the ghost shadow to undergo an inner and outer transformation, and then it returned to an ordinary shadow, as if nothing had happened.

Huang Ziwan couldn't help but ask, "Brother Ren, what is your strange transformation branch?"

He then realized that he had misspoke, and said with a silly smile, "You don't have to tell me."

"That's okay."

Ren Qing's face was strange, and the ghost shadow quietly merged into Huang Ziwan's shadow, and the other party didn't notice it at all.

Huang Ziwan thought that Ren Qing's strange transformation branch was more useless, and he felt a lot more balanced in his heart, and comforted him gloatingly.

"Don't be too regretful, after the first strange transformation, the next two strange transformations can be slightly intervened..."

Ren Qing gently kicked, and the stone hit Huang Ziwan's shadow directly, and the latter subconsciously touched the position of his cheek.

As the name suggests, Ghost Substitute is a means of using a ghost shadow to replace another person's shadow, and it can also indirectly affect it.

If the shadow is injured, the body is injured.

Huang Ziwan's expression was slightly stiff.

He noticed Ren Qing's small movements, and then looked at the shadow with suspicion, this strange transformation branch had an unspeakable strangeness.

The ghost shadow slowly returned to the main body.

Huang Ziwan touched his chin and said, "It can make others have an extra weakness, but it is not difficult to counter it."

"Raise the light above your head, minimize the area of the shadow as much as possible, and use the technique to block the attack."

"I will pay attention to hiding the ghost shadow."

Ren Qing knew that what Huang Ziwan said was true, as long as the opponent knew the ability of Ghost Substitute, it would be difficult to play a key role.

But he also has the Human Skin Book at the same time.

When transferring his injuries to the ghost shadow, and the ghost shadow becomes the shadow of others, then the Ghost Substitute seems a little terrifying.

Ren Qing's current application is not flexible enough, otherwise he can use the ghost shadow to replace the shadows of at least ten people at the same time.

Maybe when he is promoted to the Yin Messenger Realm, the number of Ghost Substitutes will be even more exaggerated.

It's a pity that the Skin Refiner can only transfer skin and flesh injuries at present, and the two will make rapid progress after being promoted to "Substitute Death Ghost Skin".

Ren Qing hesitated for a moment and suppressed the idea of promoting the Human Skin Book.

Strange transformation is at least an autonomous promotion, and the movement is not big, so it doesn't matter to be in front of Huang Ziwan.

But the breakthrough of the technique to the Ghost Envoy Realm is likely to last for days and nights, and it is indeed a bit exaggerated if he only spends more than ten minutes.

Moreover, Ren Qing doesn't think Ghost Substitute has any effect on the Rice Husk Giant.

This kind of forbidden area consciousness aggregate has no flesh and no soul, unless the core strange object is sealed, it will be immortal.

Huang Ziwan saw Ren Qing thinking secretly, and his expression became proud.

He smiled and showed off: "In fact, the strange transformation depends on chance, just like the branch ability that I, the old brother, obtained for the first time, which can turn venom into living beings."

His skin oozed venom, forming a lifelike toad.

The corners of Ren Qing's mouth twitched, and he inquired intentionally or unintentionally: "By the way, Old Huang, you should still have spare power in the body of that strange object, why don't you try to come out?"

Huang Ziwan blurted out: "Of course I tried, but the exit of the esophagus is relatively closed and I can't climb out, and the others..."

Ren Qing patted Huang Ziwan on the shoulder, with a little pity in his eyes, and then sat cross-legged on the ground to continue visualizing the technique.

The cave returned to calm again, only Huang Ziwan's sighs came from time to time.

Two days passed without knowing it.

Ren Qing estimated that the time was almost up, so they prepared to go to the kitchen to cause trouble.
