The Secret Way of Immortality

Gray-black clouds covered the sky, and rain followed.

After the rain touched the vegetation on the ground, a faint mist rose up, and a faint sizzling sound could be heard.

Animal bones mixed in the soil could be seen turning into gelatinous pus under the scouring of the rain, which was quickly absorbed by the earth.

It was clearly a scene like a fairyland, but there was a strange and inexplicable silence.

Bang... Bang... Bang...

Heavy footsteps came from far and near.

The giant corpse Buddha broke through the clouds and walked towards the northwest under the reflection of the sunlight.

After this period of growth, its body had reached about two thousand five hundred meters, like Buzhou Mountain piercing the sky.

Ren Qing was sitting cross-legged on its head, constantly chanting with his eyes closed.

Unconsciously, several months had passed since the giant corpse Buddha left the dead zone. During this period, he was not in a hurry to cultivate, but focused on stabilizing his realm.

Although he possessed the Ascension to Immortality Dharma that led directly to the Earth Immortal, it did not mean that he could become an immortal and attain enlightenment.

Ren Qing exhaled a long breath, then frowned and looked at the clouds above his head, which were mixed with Yin Qi, and his mouth and nose were filled with an unpleasant stench of decay.

Even though the giant corpse Buddha had traveled countless miles, he could still feel the aftermath of the battle between immortals and Buddhas.

Immortals and Buddhas both possessed the great power to change the world, which mortals could not imagine.

Of course, flora and fauna would not be exterminated by Yin Qi. In a few years, a large number of creatures adapted to acid rain would appear here.

Ren Qing handed over the control of the giant corpse Buddha to the Jailer Hall, and only occasionally checked the situation with his mind. The rest of the time was spent cultivating.

The Jailer Hall did not disappoint. The monks in its body were busy in an orderly manner, either collecting resources or nourishing the mutated organs in various places.

Ren Qing also took advantage of his free time to use the dream technique of the Yang God realm to make earth-shattering changes to the appearance of the giant corpse Buddha.

It was difficult to compare it with the previous body that resembled both a Buddha and a corpse.

The main reason was that Ren Qing realized that this world had a conflict between Taoism and Buddhism, so he brought the giant corpse Buddha closer to the direction of Taoism.

The forms of Taoism and Buddhism were completely different when using mortals as resources.

No matter how extreme Taoism was, it could not compare to the horror of Buddhism devouring everything. The relationship between the two was bound to be endless.

At present, the Jailer Hall could not gain a foothold in this world, so it was necessary to choose the right side.

After the mutation, You Yuan had spread throughout the body along the blood vessels of the giant corpse Buddha, and naturally brought with it an ethereal immortal aura.

The insect eyes on the abdomen of the giant corpse Buddha had been moved to between the ribs due to the problem of vision. With the reflection of the faint light, they emitted a colorful glow.

Under the action of the cancer disease, it was covered with dense light blue scales, mixed with bones, making the whole body look like it was covered with blue armor.

The main brain had three eyes, and its appearance was as solemn and dignified as a statue. The gray-white hair was specially tied up with a hairpin.

It had a bit of the flavor of the Taoist guardian deity "Six Dings and Six Jias".

Ren Qing also turned the secondary heads into Jiaos by the way. The faces were covered with large and small eyeballs, and the snake body, which was originally the neck, swayed slightly.

On weekdays, the Jailer Hall would put the secondary head "Wandering Snake" in mid-air, led by the demon Hundred-Eyed Tiger "Zhang Yi", using the ability of the Hundred-Eyed to monitor the surrounding hundreds of miles.

It was obviously no longer appropriate to call it "Giant Corpse Buddha", so it was finally called "Guardian Corpse", also known as "Forbidden Corpse".

If he wasn't afraid of being too eye-catching, he even planned to add some immortal aura around it.

Ren Qing also specially asked Li Tiangang to transfer a batch of turtle demons, and through dream techniques, let them practice the disaster-avoiding and blessing-knowing aspects of the Turtle Longevity Technique.

After the turtle demons mastered it, the memory of Turtle Longevity was erased, and they were responsible for guarding against disasters, so as to avoid sudden dangers.

Also with this, Li Tiangang simply refined the affiliated forces of the Jailer Hall.

The Jailers were the "Soldier Vein", the demons were the "Demon Vein", the Wuwei Taoist Temple was the "Ying Vein", the Heavenly Dao Worms were the "Worm Vein", the Cocoon People were the "Cocoon Vein", and the zombies were the "Corpse Vein".

Ren Qing stretched his waist and moved his muscles and bones on top of the Wandering Snake, and couldn't help but feel worried about Song Zongwu and the Great Dream True Man.

Although it was still early from the agreed date to return to the Longevity Forbidden Zone, he could not contact the two through dream techniques.

The Great Dream True Man should be trapped in seclusion, and I don't know if he has escaped.

As for Song Zongwu, Ren Qing's dream technique had never detected his existence. It stands to reason that the Buddhist technique would not allow him to become a Buddha in a few years.

There was not much Ren Qing could do, so he had to improve his cultivation as soon as possible.

He originally planned to go to the Bottomless Abyss to find a safe place to retreat.

But Ren Qing suddenly thought of something. The Buddha Qi might have already devoured the contemporary Great Compassionate Maitreya Bodhisattva, and the latter would definitely go to the Maitreya Clan.

After all, the mountains of the Heaven of the Heavens still sealed the past Buddhas and monks.

He was afraid that the Great Compassionate Buddha Qi would look for a new generation of Buddha sons to inherit the fruit position. If he returned the same way, wouldn't he just run into the muzzle of the gun?

Ren Qing believed that he was extremely talented and might be targeted by the Great Compassionate Buddha Qi.

Since he couldn't go to the Maitreya Clan and staying in place was not realistic, he drove the Forbidden Corpse to look for a place to stay in the nearby area.

Ren Qing pressed his tongue against the tortoise shell and found that the hexagram had finally turned into an "Auspicious Omen", indicating that he had escaped the influence of the Dead Zone.

The Dead Zone had been destroyed, but the follow-up was bound to continue to ferment.

The Corpse Mirror was probably clear to many forces about its specific role, and it would definitely attract the attention of a large number of monks.

Ren Qing relied on the Turtle Longevity to quietly remove himself.

He looked around and then noticed a deep canyon in the distance, which was shrouded in thick fog due to the temperature difference inside and outside.

It was indeed a good place to retreat.

Ren Qing signaled the Forbidden Corpse to sit cross-legged in the canyon, and the fog covered its body, so even if monks flew over from mid-air, they would not be able to detect it.

He was not idle during the months of traveling. Sharpening the knife would not delay the work of chopping wood. He had already straightened out the direction of future cultivation.

His lifespan had been restored to a thousand years, the newly promoted Ascension Ladder had also stabilized, and he had also figured out the lifespan required for the Heavenly Weird Realm.

【Do you want to advance to the Heavenly Weird Realm? It requires consuming 20,000 years】

20,000 years of lifespan. Relying on Dream City to extend life was definitely unrealistic, unless Ren Qing could pull all the creatures of this world into Dream City.

But if he could really reach such a level, Ren Qing would have already become a "Toe-Leaving Dream Immortal".

Fortunately, he had already understood the secret of immortality. If he wanted to become an immortal and attain enlightenment by borrowing the Dead Man's Sutra, he had at least a 50% chance.

The reason why the Dead Man's Sutra was immortal was mainly because of the Heavenly Dao.

The Ascension to Immortality Dharma comprehended by contacting the Heavenly Dao actually possessed some unique qualities. This had nothing to do with the upper limit of the Ascension to Immortality Dharma.

The Toe-Leaving Art was "Disease originates from dreams, controlling the dreams of the world", and the Dead Man's Sutra was "Not old, not born, not dead, not destroyed."

Unfortunately, directly cultivating the Dead Man's Sutra would not only prevent him from breaking through to the Earth Immortal, but also attract the attention of the Corpse Immortal, just like the Great Compassionate Maitreya Bodhisattva.

Ren Qing decided to change his strategy for cultivating the Dead Man's Sutra. He did not intend to use the Dead Man's Sutra as his main technique, but to use it as a secondary technique.

Try to remove the traces of the Corpse Immortal as much as possible.

Ren Qing explained the situation to Li Tiangang, and then came to the depths of the Intestine Jungle and found a secluded corner to retreat.

The first thing he did was not to master the techniques related to the Dead Man's Sutra, but to use the World in his Stomach to strip out the incomplete Dead Man's Sutra in his body.

As the Corpse Pill disappeared in the Dantian, the inconspicuous corpse transformation receded like a tide.

Ren Qing immediately felt his body temperature rise, the activity of his internal organs was significantly enhanced, and even the strange objects gave birth to restless thoughts.

The Dead Man's Sutra did not need to be promoted with lifespan. Relying on the consumption of lifespan when other techniques were promoted could forcibly promote the progress of cultivation.

Ren Qing gave up the Dead Man's Sutra that was about to reach the completion of the Yin Infernal Realm, but he did not feel the slightest pity.

Letting the Dead Man's Sutra be the main technique had too many hidden risks. The secondary technique was undoubtedly safer and more malleable.

Ren Qing looked at the World in his Stomach. The Dead Man's Sutra had turned into a dead bone land in the northwest corner, constantly emitting a strong Yin Qi.

The dead bone land was just right for the Jailer Hall's zombies to cultivate.

After leaving the Dead Zone, the zombies could only cultivate through the Yin Qi collected before, otherwise the progress of the Corpse Refining Technique would be extremely slow.

For the Corpse Vein, the dead bone land was equivalent to the foundation for the Jailer Hall to gain a foothold.

Ren Qing checked his body and soul, and after confirming that there was no Yin Qi remaining, he took out two Jailer Techniques.

One was the existing Jailer Hall technique, and the other was specially created by him.

【Bone Tooth Technique】

【Created by the White Bone Lady. To practice, you need to crush the teeth in your mouth, grind them into powder with other people's skulls, and then take them. After that, you will grow a tooth every time you eat a human head. You will complete the cultivation after all your teeth are full.】

The Bone Tooth Technique seemed ordinary, but one of the heteromorphic routes called "Bone Vein Person" could turn bone marrow into something similar to plant roots.

The Bone Vein Person was just right to cooperate with the Corpse Bone Technique.

Of course, the most important thing was that the Dead Man's Sutra and the Bone Tooth Technique were similar in nature, so they would not affect the formation of the subsequent "Ascension to Immortality Dharma".

The technique created by Ren Qing, "Dead Blood Sutra", was perfected based on the Seed Demon Sutra and derived from hundreds of fungal souls day and night.

It should not be a big problem to use the Dead Blood Sutra to control the Dead Man's Sutra.

【Dead Blood Sutra】

【Created by Ren Qing. To practice, you need to grind naturally decayed corpses into powder and inject them into the blood vessels throughout your body from the heart until the blood is as thick as a paste. You can only complete the cultivation if you do not die.】

The heteromorphic route of the Dead Blood Person was the ultimate "poison". In a sense, it was also very suitable for Huang Ziwan.

However, Huang Ziwan had already mastered two techniques. If he added another one, he might not be able to reach the Yin Infernal Realm in this life.

The heteromorphic routes of the Dead Blood Sutra were:

"Corpse Poison Person" would turn the blood all over the body into corpse poison, and as the realm increased, the corpse poison would become more and more terrifying.

The blood of the "Chang Corpse Person" could turn others into Chang Corpses, but this kind of Chang Corpse had no intelligence and no potential for cultivation.

The blood of the "Dried Blood Person" was dry, and corpse poison was all over the flesh and bones. They could cultivate by taking corpse poison and recover from injuries by swallowing corpses.

Ren Qing hesitated again and again, and finally chose the Corpse Poison Person because of the compatibility of the Dead Man's Sutra.

After the Corpse Poison Person reached the "Red Land Drought Demon" of the Yang God Realm, the corpse poison would turn into pure fire poison, which was more in line with zombies.

Ren Qing then began to practice the Dead Blood Sutra and no longer asked about external affairs.
