The Secret Way of Immortality

Ren Qing decided to try out a new divine ability, so he closed his eyes and used Walking Among Mortals.

As a divine ability nurtured by five life-saving techniques, Walking Among Mortals, even in its nascent form, displayed extraordinary qualities.

The moment the effect of the divine ability took hold of Ren Qing's body, his body and soul suddenly disappeared, as if merging into the air.

It wasn't that it was difficult to detect with the naked eye, but that his presence was completely erased.

Ren Qing was like a figure in a mirror world, although he could vaguely detect the other party through the Disaster Elimination Art, he could not perceive their exact existence.

Walking Among Mortals could only be maintained for a short four or five breaths, but Ren Qing felt as if time had stopped, and his thoughts were still racing.

Ren Qing was slightly unaccustomed, as if his body and soul had been erased by the divine ability, it was hard to imagine the figure in the mirror constantly being in a similar state.

Then his five senses returned, and his nose smelled the aura of a large number of living beings within a hundred meters.

There were cultivators in various mutated organs, as well as zombies transporting resources, and even the temporary camp outside was covered by Walking Among Mortals.

This was only because the Facade Art was only at the Ghost Messenger realm. If it broke through to the Nether Official realm, the range of influence of the divine ability would expand hundreds of times.

Ren Qing observed meticulously, and with a thought, he could replace a certain cultivator.

But he didn't do so, he just repeatedly used the divine ability, allowing his body and soul to enter a state of non-existence, to feel the wonder of the divine ability.

And the hundreds of cultivators in the temporary camp were not aware of the abnormality at all, and were still conducting transactions regarding the Rebirth Pill.

Small batches were usually traded by Ghost Messenger realm or Nether Official realm cultivators from various forces, while large batches were personally brought to the temporary camp by Yang God realm cultivators.

Because the Wardens were eager for quick results, the temporary camp was slightly chaotic.

Even though True Person Yu Hua repeatedly stated that they did not need resources refined from flesh and blood, the various forces were still secretly refining the mindless embryos into treasures.

It was just that the targets of the transactions had been changed to some Wardens who didn't discriminate between meat and vegetables.

Before Ren Qing made any rigid regulations, they didn't care where the resources came from, pursuing profit was always the Wardens's aim.

If it developed for a long time, and if it wasn't in a dead man's restricted area, the temporary camp would undoubtedly form a black market where transactions flourished.

Ren Qing forcibly resisted the urge to erase others, and then canceled Walking Among Mortals.

He had roughly figured out how to use the divine ability. When the Disaster Elimination Art advanced to the Yang God realm, Walking Among Mortals would become even more bizarre and unpredictable.

Ren Qing couldn't help but smile. With Walking Among Mortals cooperating with the Stomach World, it should be possible for the Wardens to leave the dead man's restricted area safely...

Crack, crack, crack...

The sound of the tortoise shell cracking rang out again, and his expression suddenly darkened.

Ren Qing used his tongue to press against the roof of his mouth, and found that there were several more cracks on the surface of the tortoise shell, but the previous cracks had healed.

He had only just come into contact with the Tortoise Longevity Art, and could not directly understand the information contained in the shattered shell.

Ren Qing guessed that each crack should represent a hidden disaster, and was undergoing completely different changes as things fermented.

Then he discovered that the hexagram had changed from "auspicious with ominous" to "ominous with auspicious," indicating that the dead man's restricted area was indeed moving towards out-of-control deterioration.

The pattern revealed by the hexagram seal had also changed. Originally it was the corpse of a monk, but now it was a series of suspended corpses.

It seemed that the source of the future great ominous omen was in the mirror world.

Ren Qing let out a long breath, and then communicated with the disease in the mirror world.

He noticed that Old Monk Zongqing had long lost his breath, and at the same time, the degree of corpse transformation of his body had intensified, with flesh and blood collapsing and reshaping at any time.

Ren Qing narrowed his eyes, from which it could be seen that the figure in the mirror, after successfully disassembling the Scripture of the Dead, had begun to prepare to re-cultivate the Scripture of the Dead.

He only hoped that the figure in the mirror could successfully master it, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

Ren Qing hesitated for a moment, and then allowed the disease to multiply in Old Monk Zongqing's body, wanting to use this to construct organs that would affect his body.

He attached two kinds of diseases to Old Monk Zongqing's body, namely, the deformed disease and the cancerous disease, which were most suitable for forming mutated organs.

Old Monk Zongqing trembled for no reason, and a bulge protruded from the position of his eyebrows, and soon grew an extremely chaotic eye.

The eye opened, and Ren Qing used it to observe the mirror world.

He saw that the suspended bodies were all undergoing crazy corpse transformations, and could see various patterns drawn on the surface of the corpses, using them to absorb Yin Qi.

However, the corpse transformation should be limited to the bodies forcibly bound in the mirror world, that is, the true bodies of those outside avatars who had died.

What Ren Qing didn't expect was that the number of similar bodies accounted for so much.

Old Monk Zongqing's ribs pierced through his flesh, and he was already transforming into a Purple Zombie in the mirror world, which caused the eye on his forehead to explode, obviously the organ could not withstand the erosion of Yin Qi.

Ren Qing was relieved instead. The figure in the mirror should still have reason, and had not completely fallen into madness because of the Scripture of the Dead.

The other party was obviously experimenting with the disassembly technique of the Scripture of the Dead with corpses.

In this way, Ren Qing was at least half a year away from the figure in the mirror officially re-cultivating the Scripture of the Dead, after all, the latter did not have an information stream, and the cultivation of the technique was very harsh.

Ren Qing guessed that the ominous omen of the Tortoise Longevity Art was likely derived from the suspended zombies.

If the figure in the mirror could not complete his purpose, or fell into the out-of-control state of the technique, it might cause the corpse mirror to collapse.

Once the zombies in the mirror world escaped, the Wardens would find it difficult to resist.

Ren Qing suppressed the fear in his heart, instructed Little San and other alchemists to refine magic weapons to resist Yin Qi, and then continued to retreat.

He was only two thousand two hundred years away from five thousand years of lifespan. At the current rate of prolonging lifespan, he would reach the expected lifespan in at most a month or so.

He would take advantage of this time to complete the finishing work before the giant corpse Buddha left.

For the sake of insurance, Ren Qing also left some Ghost Shadows next to the corpse mirror, so that he could check the information of the corpse mirror with the information stream at any time.

Time passed, and lifespan continued to rise.

In order to stimulate transactions, in addition to the Rebirth Pill, the Wardens also sold some pills to assist in cultivation, as well as various magic weapons.

Even Ren Qing had to admit that when it came to harvesting leeks, the Wardens couldn't hold a candle to them.

Because the Warden Art also had to supply the strange objects in the body, the lifespan of the same realm was indeed much lower than that of ordinary cultivators.

Of course, the advantage of the Warden Art was in combat power.

The three strange transformations of the Ghost Messenger realm, the prototype of the divine ability of the Nether Official realm, and the Immortal Ascension Art of the Yang God realm were not comparable to ordinary techniques.

Nowadays, some of the Wardens also concurrently cultivate external techniques, and use them as secondary techniques to associate after advancing to the Nether Official realm.

This was also the reason why the number of Ghost Messenger realm Wardens had exploded during this period.

Ren Qing's lifespan had reached four thousand seven hundred years, and the rate of increase had slowed down slightly, but the last two hundred years or so would only take a few days.

He felt a faint sense of unease in his heart, which may have come from the warning of the Tortoise Longevity Art.

Fortunately, the hexagram had not changed, and it was still ominous with auspicious, and even the cracks on the surface of the tortoise shell had unknowingly decreased.

While harvesting lifespan, Ren Qing instructed the Wardens to gradually evacuate.

The scale of the temporary camp was constantly shrinking, and only the Taoist disciples remained outside, and the rest of the cultivators had successively returned to the giant corpse Buddha.

They were distributed in various mutated organs, and through similar technique auras, and under Ren Qing's instructions, they tried to stimulate the mutated organs.

Everything was being prepared for the evacuation.

Although the various forces did not know that the dead man's restricted area harbored ominous omens, they more or less sensed the impending storm.

They wanted to inquire about news from the mouths of the Taoist disciples, but the latter did not know.

The Yang God realm cultivators also had the idea of leaving the dead man's restricted area with the Fortune Earth Immortal, but they were helpless because their duty was to guard against the abnormalities of the Immortal Gate.

Following a True Immortal of unknown origin might have even worse consequences.

This situation led to a further increase in the transaction volume of the temporary camp, and even Yang God realm cultivators were selling the core techniques of their sects.

After True Person Yu Hua brought the insect men back to the giant corpse Buddha, the right to speak in the temporary camp was transferred to Han Li, but the latter spent most of his time studying the Scripture of the Dead on the surface of the corpse mirror.

Han Li was too lazy to seek benefits, and compared the already copied Scripture of the Dead around the corpse mirror.

Just then.

Drip.

Han Li's pupils dilated, and a drop of corrosive rainwater fell on his forehead.

He quickly looked up, and the dark clouds that had shrouded the dead man's restricted area all year round were gradually raining down fine rain.

The acid rain only lasted for half an hour, but it left the cultivators of the various forces in a daze.

In the past two hundred years, the dead man's restricted area had not even seen rain, let alone mountain winds, and had always been as silent as the underworld.

The sudden rain made them feel a strong sense of dread.

Han Li and other Taoist disciples remained silent and speechless, and the various forces couldn't help but suspect that it was affected by the Fortune Earth Immortal.

As for the truth, the Wardens could guess the answer.

They had all been in contact with the restricted area, so they naturally knew that the restricted area had a special rule, which was that it would autonomously transform after swallowing strange objects.

As long as the restricted area swallowed more and more strange objects, it would become extremely terrifying.

Wasn't the Longevity Restricted Area in the Water Marsh no different from the real world?

Li Tiangang specially checked the casualties of the cultivators, and found that only a few had died in the Stomach World due to the strange objects losing control when breaking through the realm.

The cultivators outside had not disappeared at all.

Ren Qing immediately realized that among the large number of bodies in the mirror world, there should be several that could not withstand the erosion of corpse transformation.

In the bodies in the mirror world, there were bound to be cultivators who had mastered the Warden Art.

When the strange objects merged into the dead man's restricted area, making the restricted area more and more like the real world, it suddenly increased a lot of variables.

Ren Qing looked at the lifespan that was less than a hundred years away, and then communicated with the giant corpse Buddha.

A slight vibration came from the gastrointestinal area, and the giant corpse Buddha sank at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the Taoist disciples also began to evacuate successively.

The various forces were helpless about this. The remaining power of the True Immortal was still vivid in their minds, and besides, the giant corpse Buddha itself was also a Heavenly Aberrant realm puppet.

True Person Yu Hua had hinted at the selected insect men cultivators that if they wanted to follow the Fortune Earth Immortal, they could silently recite the name of the True Immortal in a deserted place.

The left arm of the giant corpse Buddha could transform into various beasts, including pythons.

One python after another drilled out of the ground, swallowed the insect men cultivators into their bellies, and soon brought them back to the intestines and stomach of the giant corpse Buddha.

By the time the Yang God realm cultivators reacted, the town had lost hundreds of insect men cultivators.

As for the rest of the cultivators, they harbored grudges against the Wardens, and even if they knew there was a way to go to the giant corpse Buddha, they ignored it.

The process of the giant corpse Buddha leaving the dead man's restricted area was relatively slow, after all, it needed to resist the shackles of the restricted area, but it shouldn't take too long.

Ren Qing was paying attention to the progress while preparing to advance the Dream Art to the Immortal Ascension Ladder.
