The Secret Way of Immortality

Ren Qing directly stated the identity of the nameless one, but the latter showed no reaction, staring at Ren Qing with indifferent eyes.

Before Ren Qing could continue speaking, the corpses revealed indescribable smiles.

The nameless one's expression changed several times in a short period, before finally returning to indifference, as if several souls were overflowing in his mind.

Ren Qing became vigilant. As expected of someone who had comprehended spells three times, the nameless one's mental state was probably completely different from that of a normal person.

He had originally wanted to take the opportunity of contacting the nameless one to test his intentions, but now it seemed that it was difficult for him to understand the thoughts of a madman.

Fortunately, he didn't use the Heavenly Demon Tribulation, otherwise his true nature might have been seen through at close range.

"Nameless… Nameless… Nameless…"

The nameless one's voice grew louder and louder, as if he was recalling something, but it caused the surrounding darkness to become restless.

The black goat was roaring, rushing towards the corpses like a tide.

The black goat's malice was very pure, its instinct was to devour any living being in the world, and finally assimilate everything into itself.

It was hard to imagine what a human tragedy it would be if the Buddha Realm enveloped the world, probably no living being would survive.

The nameless one was still manic a moment ago, but the next moment he returned to calmness.

"So you are relying on the original spell to advance to the Heavenly Gu Realm…"

He said with a sudden realization, his eyes filled with indescribable emotions, a bit of satisfaction, but more of joy.

With a slight thought, the nameless one scattered hundreds of corpses on the periphery, just to attract the attention of the black goat and delay time.

Ren Qing couldn't help but ask: "What is the original spell?"

"What's your name?"

Ren Qing hesitated for a few breaths, then replied: "Four Seas Dragon King."

The nameless one's eyes flickered, and he muttered to himself like a neurotic: "I stayed in Xiangxiang for two hundred years, placing my own Dao lineage in various places, Immortal in the Mirror…"

"Immortal in the Mirror is in a place called Eight Characters Village."

His words were intermittent, obviously he hadn't spoken continuously for a long time, like a toddler learning to speak.

"Karma is truly wonderful."

The nameless one's expression became resentful: "As expected, I can't escape karma, my karma still exists in the world, I can't escape…"

He showed a stiff smile and walked slowly towards the southeast.

Ren Qing followed behind without hesitation. The hexagram on the surface of the tortoise shell remained the same. The ominousness mixed with auspiciousness indicated that the nameless one who had descended by borrowing a corpse posed no threat to him at all.

The nameless one was oblivious to everything around him. Wherever he passed, corpses emerged from the soil, fighting with the attacking black goat.

He belatedly explained: "The Forbidden Jail Method called in Xiangxiang is the original spell, originating from the cataclysm ten thousand years ago."

As he spoke, the nameless one's face became extremely ferocious, and corpses exploded one after another, indicating that his emotions were very unstable.

"Senior Nameless, can you tell me in detail what happened ten thousand years ago?"

Ren Qing intentionally or unintentionally lagged behind half a step, asking seemingly casually, while simultaneously, Corpse Fengdu was ready to go, guarding against the nameless one at any time.

"It's the Heavenly Dao, Heavenly Dao, Heavenly Dao…"

"The Heavenly Dao induced cultivators to comprehend the original spell."

The nameless one let out a piercing laugh, his eyes locked on Ren Qing, and then he said matter-of-factly: "You also practice the original spell. Ren Qing, you saw the Heavenly Dao when you ascended the Immortal Ladder, didn't you? That exquisite, alternative Dao rhythm?"

"He is the beginning of all things, the cornerstone of the great world, all immortals and Buddhas are shaded by him."

"He is the symbol of sin, the source of the collapse of order, causing hundreds of millions of living beings to suffer."

When praising, the nameless one's tone was calm, but when cursing, he became ferocious, as if different personalities were switching in succession.

"…"

Ren Qing was just an observer, listening to the nameless one describing the Heavenly Dao, from which he could learn that the one in his mouth should be Yuanshi Tianzun.

It wasn't until more than ten minutes had passed that the nameless one's emotions calmed down.

Ren Qing could feel that the soul aura attached to the corpse by the nameless one was gradually weakening. As a Heavenly Gu Realm cultivator, even if he could control true immortals, he still couldn't control them as easily as his own limbs.

The nameless one talked incessantly, his thoughts becoming illogical.

Blood was flowing from the corpses' facial features, and their heads swelled up several times.

Pfft…

The eyes were directly dropped on the ground under the influence of high pressure, the blood was stained with bone fragments, the color was enchanting and strange.

Figures looked at Ren Qing, and stumbled towards the latter, muttering vaguely: "I want to cut off karma, I want no one in the world to know me…"

But before they could get close, they had already been drained of their strength.

After the figures all fell to the ground, the nameless one also disappeared.

The black goat herd tore the corpses into pieces, ignored Ren Qing who was wearing a skin, and soon re-entered the darkness.

Ren Qing narrowed his eyes. Since the nameless one had descended here, it was very likely that the Black Crow Matriarch controlled by the Corpse Immortal had nested nearby.

He wanted to see what the nameless one was doing.

Ren Qing used the semi-virtualization of the black goat to shuttle up and down within a hundred miles, and finally came to a seemingly ordinary mountain.

If it were other Heavenly Gu Realm cultivators, they might not be able to find the abnormality of the mountain.

But he was different. After all, he controlled Corpse Fengdu, and was extremely sensitive to Yin Qi, even if the mountain had completely isolated the Yin Qi inside.

The Black Crow Matriarch was obviously hiding in the mountain, as well as tens of thousands of Heavenly Dao insect people.

Don't look at the nameless one being completely irrational, but he had always left room for Ren Qing, from which it could be seen that his thinking was still clear.

When Ren Qing checked the Heavenly Dao insect people under the Black Crow Matriarch on the ground, he found that the dead ones were all zombified low-level cannon fodder.

He drilled into the mountain from the cracks in the mountain, and noticed that it had been hollowed out inside.

As soon as Ren Qing stepped into the mountain, what came into view was the Black Crow Matriarch who was thousands of meters tall, and a foul stench came over him.

[Black Crow Matriarch]

[Age: Two thousand seven hundred and forty-five]

[Lifespan: None]

[Technique: Black Crow Crossing, Dead Man's Scripture (Remnant)]

[Black Crow Crossing]

[Created by the Black Crow Matriarch, cultivation requires eating three thousand catties of carrion every day until the body undergoes heteromorphism before it can be completed.]

Ren Qing looked with pity at the Black Crow Matriarch who had become inhuman: "As expected, it's the Dead Man's Scripture, the ending can be imagined."

Unexpectedly, the cave was growing plants containing the Buddha Realm, but they were all fungi that survived by clinging to corpses, with bright and gorgeous appearances.

The Black Crow Matriarch had completely zombified, exuding Yin Qi all over her body.

However, the rich Yin Qi was limited by her to the cave, so it did not leak out, otherwise it would definitely trigger the riot of the Heavenly Demon aura.

I wonder if it was the nameless one's transformation, the Black Crow Matriarch's abdomen was egg-shaped.

The upper body of the Black Crow Matriarch shrank to dozens of meters, covered with dense corpse spots. The woman who was originally a beautiful face has now become an old woman with wrinkled skin.

The lower body, however, swelled to more than a thousand meters, and hundreds of thousands of Heavenly Dao insect people were living in the Black Crow Matriarch's abdomen, establishing a nest.

The Heavenly Dao insect people in the stronghold had formed a flesh and blood factory. Even Ren Qing felt a little scalp numb when he saw it.

Under the semi-transparent skin, countless Heavenly Dao insect people were busy. Their bodies more or less had the characteristics of zombies.

Even if the zombification did not spread throughout the body, it also meant that they had become slaves. The Corpse Immortal had the ability to control life and death.

Of course, that was before Ren Qing took action.

Ren Qing's Corpse Fengdu had only reached the "Law Birth Dao" of the Heavenly Gu Realm, but he had a hunch that he could seize control from the Corpse Immortal.

He did not act rashly, and went deep into the nest under the cover of Yin Qi, and soon discovered more strange arrangements by the nameless one.

The center of the nest was originally the palace room of the Black Crow Matriarch. Ren Qing could see that the palace room had lost its vitality, but it was not because of the nameless one.

After the Black Crow Matriarch zombified, the palace room was taken over by the nameless one and built into the style of a blood pool, with blood constantly gushing out.

Ren Qing brushed past the numb Heavenly Dao insect people and stood by the blood pool, watching.

The blood pool was piled with a massive amount of flesh and blood bones, but they were all remnants and fragments, and it was rare to see complete corpses.

Hundreds of Heavenly Dao insect people stood by the blood pool.

They used sharp weapons to cut off the zombified body parts and threw them into the pool, causing the Yin Qi inside to accumulate continuously.

After losing the zombified limbs, the influence of the Corpse Immortal on the Heavenly Dao insect people became weak, causing their consciousness to obviously recover partially.

Their expressions became terrified, as if they had noticed something incredible, and wanted to escape the nest that was like a human hell.

But before they could take a few steps, as the Heavenly Dao insect people breathed, Yin Qi drilled into their bodies from their mouths and noses.

With the help of Yin Qi, buds began to sprout from their wounds, and then a new zombie limb grew out.

The Heavenly Dao insect people became numb again. Even if the nest was not defended, they could not escape this hidden cage.

Ren Qing observed for a moment and found that the Heavenly Dao insect people usually nourished the zombified limbs first.

Until the Yin Qi contained reached the level of the Ghost Envoy Realm, they would cut it again to ensure that the blood pool could continuously gather Yin Qi.

Everything in the nest was cyclical.

Boom boom boom…

The ground vibrated slightly, the Black Crow Matriarch briefly woke up, looked at her unrecognizable body, and let out a wail.

The movement attracted the black goat herd, but with the cover of the mountain, they could not drill into the interior at all, and Yin Qi could shield perception.

Ren Qing didn't know why the nameless one wanted so much flesh and blood, but it was probably related to the Corpse Immortal. Was he planning to let the Corpse Immortal descend on Jing Prefecture?

Rational madmen are always the most terrifying.

They often do many illogical things, but the plan is very clear.

Ren Qing was not in a hurry to destroy the nameless one's flesh and blood factory.

The goals of the two people were likely to be the same, and he might have to help the nameless one, or be used as a pawn.

The nameless one would never realize that Ren Qing was in the Black Crow Matriarch's abdomen, using the Heavenly Demon Tribulation and Corpse Fengdu without leaving any trace.

Ren Qing planned to stay in the nest temporarily, preparing to use the ability of the Corpse Emperor of Fengdu to arrange some dark hands in the flesh and blood, and wait for the skin to advance to the Yin Official Realm, so that he could go to the hinterland.

He glanced at the world in his stomach. Since the flesh body incense immortal was feasible, it was almost time to close the net.

Ren Qing looked up to the west, his eyes seemed to be locked on someone, and his expression couldn't help but become a little interested, and then he closed his eyes.

………

Under the dim moonlight, a man in black was buried in the grass, motionless, his eyes staring at the distance.

His Dao name was "Angran Layman", with abundant body hair, a typical Xichuan person, and a very famous casual cultivator in the Buddhist mustard seed.

The so-called Buddhist mustard seed refers to a mountain range that is shrouded in wind and snow all year round. It is said that immortals and Buddhas once stayed there and left behind Dao lineage.

Casual cultivators have a black market on the periphery, also called Buddhist mustard seed.

Angran Layman's eyes were full of fear, and his right hand was only holding a string of eyeballs.

"If it wasn't for the matter coming to a head, who would be willing to come to this ghostly place of Buddhist mustard seed, damn it, dead birds face the sky, immortal for ten thousand years."

Don't look at Angran Layman's appearance as only forty or fifty years old, but he is actually more than five hundred years old, reaching the upper limit of the Yuanying stage (Yin Official Realm) lifespan.

For him, it was indeed aggrieved to die from exhaustion of lifespan.

You must know that Angran Layman had already advanced to the Jindan stage (Ghost Envoy Realm) when he was in his fifties, and reached the Yuanying stage in just over a hundred years. He was considered to be a gifted talent among casual cultivators.

In theory, as long as the inherited Dao lineage was complete, it would not be difficult for him to reach the distraction stage, and he even had the opportunity to attack the Heavenly Gu Realm.

The latest novels are launched on 69shu.com!

But unfortunately, the spells cultivated by Angran Layman were extremely incomplete, and should have originated from a certain Heavenly Dao Law, but the content of the Heavenly Dao insects was removed.

The upper limit of the spell was only Jindan consummation, and he was considered to have forcibly broken through a realm.

Angran Layman had his own arrogance in his youth, and disdained joining various forces.

Moreover, the major and minor forces all had unique spells. Even if Angran Layman joined, he would have to choose to rebuild the foundation of the spell.

With a little carelessness, he would become someone else's cauldron, which was really not worth the loss.

As a result, Angran Layman cultivated hard for five hundred years, and was stuck in the bottleneck of the Yuanying stage, exhausting all his surplus lifespan.

He lost most of his ambition, and even if he wanted to rebuild the foundation, it was too late.

Angran Layman originally thought about finding a mortal town to live in for ten years, leaving a legacy if he had a chance, and dying if he didn't have a chance.

But he didn't expect that the opportunity would come silently.

Angran Layman stared at the mountain forest in a daze, recalling the scene of going to the Heavenly Court in his sleep, where countless immortal guests and geniuses gathered.

"The family's eye-digging method is probably the remnant of the spell of the Heavenly Court Fude Earth Immortal, and it needs to be based on the Heavenly Dao insects. I went wrong from the beginning."

Angran Layman shook his head in annoyance, blaming himself for being blindly confident.

"Now that the eye-digging method has reached the Yuanying stage, it is impossible to make up for the defects. I can only indirectly look for opportunities to break through…"

Thinking of this, Angran Layman's breathing couldn't help but become rapid.

He had no sense of existence among the cultivators in the Heavenly Court. He usually did some odd jobs such as transporting fragments of statues, and because his soul was weak, his soul aura would be exhausted in just half an hour.

But Angran Layman witnessed with his own eyes that all the statues in the Heavenly Court were gradually found, as well as the strange and inexplicable appearance of the three ancestral statues.

"Hehehehehe…"

"Heaven does not kill me either, who would have thought that the immortal god statues actually awakened the consciousness of the Heavenly Court."

When the consciousness of the Heavenly Court was revealed, it was just a single eye, and the aura fluctuated around the Ghost Envoy Realm, but it caused hundreds of immortal god statues present to emit a chilling aura.

Angran Layman only knew that those immortal guests muttered to themselves: "There really is an immortal position in the Heavenly Court".

As for what the immortal position was, he also heard it rumored that it seemed to be an immortal root spirit body that was necessary for becoming an immortal and attaining the Dao.

Immediately afterwards, the cultivators of the Heavenly Court went crazy, and they tried to find the immortal position outside.

According to the Heavenly Court's consciousness, when a Celestial Position returns to the Heavenly Court, the turbid energy within it can be removed, preventing loss of control even if refined.

Celestial Positions are bestowed upon meritorious cultivators, replacing deceased Immortals and Gods, and granting them a place among the Celestial Ranks.

Madam White Bone and other cultivators were skeptical of the Heavenly Court's consciousness, finding it hard to believe that ascension to Immortality and the Dao was so easily attainable.

Celestial Positions transcend the realm of the Celestial Abnormality, and even if they were to strive for one, it would be a near-death experience. Who knows if the Heavenly Court's consciousness would fulfill its promises?

However, Madam White Bone keenly noticed that a flash of ecstasy crossed the faces of some cultivators, and after the Heavenly Court's consciousness disappeared, they couldn't wait to leave.

Madam White Bone realized that they possessed techniques to discern the truth of words.

Such techniques are common among rogue cultivators, saving them a lot of trouble once mastered, otherwise they would be unknowingly tricked to death.

Upon hearing this, Madam White Bone immediately informed the remaining cultivators of her views.

Confined to the Underworld, she was actually the most suitable person to be in charge, after all, external interests were completely irrelevant to Madam White Bone.

Madam White Bone mainly considered striving for the possibility of ascension to Immortality for the Elephant Master.

At that time, she could use the Elephant Master to escape her confinement, and even catch up with the tail end of ascension to Immortality and the Dao.

Of course, this was on the premise that the Heavenly Court's consciousness was telling the truth, but Madam White Bone couldn't afford to miss the opportunity before her due to excessive caution.

The current situation also revealed extraordinary signs everywhere.

The Heavenly Court had only recently appeared, yet Immortals and Buddhas frequently showed their faces, even the Supreme Heavenly Devil and the Dipankara Buddha had become frequent targets of inquiry for various forces.

Who would dare say that the upheaval in this world had nothing to do with the Heavenly Court?

They were secretly searching for clues about the Celestial Positions, and a stagnant pool suddenly stirred up waves, but the various forces all harbored their own ulterior motives.

Little did they know that the Heavenly Court's consciousness was impersonated by Ren Qing's Mycelium Soul, and the Podaliri Technique made the illusion difficult to detect, especially since they had already been thoroughly understood.

The aura of the Celestial Position emitted by the Immortal God statues was actually simulated by Ren Qing using the Power of Incense.

Unexpectedly, after the Physical Body Incense Immortal merged with the Immortal Duty, it indeed possessed the characteristics of a Celestial Position.

If cultivators used the perfected Divine Possession Technique to receive the Power of Incense, their bodies and souls would gradually be assimilated into the appearance of the Physical Body Incense Immortal.

Ren Qing was completely engaging in a confidence trick.

He wanted to obtain Celestial Positions to set up a restricted area, but he didn't want to pay the price of Celestial Positions, so he simply let the cultivators enjoy the "fake Celestial Positions" in his stomach world.

As for whether they could be promoted to Earth Immortals, it didn't really matter.

Because after Ren Qing collected enough Celestial Positions to launch the Immortal Conferred War, he would naturally summon them in the identity of the Heavenly Court's consciousness.

………

"It's here…"

Hermit Angran came back to his senses, the main character he had been waiting for so long finally arrived.

He tried to lower his breathing as much as possible, staring unblinkingly at the mountain road, a huge figure was walking towards his location.

The sound of bells jingling rang out.

Hermit Angran's heart tightened, and he quickly pierced his ears with steel needles, causing him to lose his hearing, so as not to be affected by the demon's bells.

It was a bizarre and inexplicable beast, its body resembling a fox, with as many as nine tails, but its face seemed to have been torn off, its features exposed directly to the air.

The fox had a string of bells made of human heads hanging on its chest.

The dried brain kernels rattled inside the skulls, making a crisp sound.

Hermit Angran had lived in a village in the Mustard Seed Foothills since he was a child, and knew that there was a fox demon in the mountains that liked to lure passing men into copulation.

He had once gone into the mountains to search for the fox demon, but the Mustard Seed Foothills were too vast.

Later, the number of people in the village dwindled, and they basically relied on Hermit Angran to settle in towns, and he also gave up the idea of killing the fox demon.

But Hermit Angran didn't expect that the Heart Moon Fox Immortal, one of the Twenty-Eight Constellations of the Heavenly Court, had similar physical characteristics to the fox demon, the most obvious being the nine long tails.

The Heart Moon Fox Immortal also had a bell-shaped magical artifact, which hung on the statue's waist.

Hermit Angran gritted his teeth, this was one of his few opportunities, if he couldn't seize it, the only option was to exhaust his lifespan.

He flicked a little sandalwood into the open space, and a faint strange smell permeated the air.

Sandalwood has the effect of attracting wild animals, he didn't expect it to be effective against the fox demon, even if it was just a moment's pause.

As a result, the fox demon directly ignored the sandalwood and walked straight to the end of the mountain road.

Hermit Angran's fingernails dug into the flesh of his palm, he couldn't help but want to take action, otherwise he would easily lose track of the fox demon.

He had been waiting like a fool for more than half a month, and only barely encountered this great luck.

Just then, a humpback deer was attracted by the sandalwood and licked the remaining taste on the ground, not noticing the danger that was coming.

Whoosh!

The sound of air being torn rang out, and the fleshy tendrils extending from the fox demon's mouth directly pierced the humpback deer's head, devouring all the brains inside.

The humpback deer twitched all over, but it wasn't pain, but stimulation of the senses.

Hermit Angran swallowed a mouthful of saliva, he saw the humpback deer's lower body swelling, its head welcoming the fox demon, and his scalp tingled a little.

He knew that now was not the time to be stunned, and took an eyeball from the rosary.

Hermit Angran tore off his Taoist robe, revealing his strong muscles, his skin covered with the stimulation of various exotic beasts, and at the position of his shoulder was a lifelike Flood Dragon.

Only the eyes of the Flood Dragon tattoo were slightly empty.

He pressed the eyeball into the Flood Dragon's eye socket, and then flesh and blood gathered towards his shoulder.

"Heavenly Dao Art One, Hearing Worm Dragon."

A several-meter-long Flood Dragon emerged from his skin and flesh, its appearance resembling both a worm and a dragon, but it was one-eyed, and pounced towards the fox demon.

The fox demon was caught off guard and injured by the Hearing Worm Dragon, the fur on its hind legs was stained red.

"Hee hee hee…"

The fox demon made a clear girlish laugh, causing Hermit Angran's hair to stand on end, and he did not hesitate to take off two more eyeballs.

"Heavenly Dao Art Four, Worm Tooth Elephant."

"Heavenly Dao Art Seven, Poisonous Insect Bee."

Hermit Angran summoned two exotic beasts from under his skin, while he himself became skin and bones, with only a little flesh and blood left on his legs.

He wanted to fight the fox demon to the death, but of course not.

Hermit Angran moved around, obtained the fox demon's blood that fell on the branches and leaves, and then quickly sat down on his blank abdomen to transform.

After a while, the tattoo of the Nine-tailed Fox Demon appeared on the surface of his skin.

He used his eyeballs to summon an exotic beast with a worm head and fox body, grabbed its tail, and disappeared into the dense mountain forest in a puff of smoke.

The fox demon let out a roar of anger, but was still firmly entangled.

The most mysterious part of Hermit Angran's eye-gouging technique is that the exotic beasts he carves can inherit the memories of their predecessors within half a day of their formation.

However, because of the loss of flesh and blood, his consciousness was already very blurred.

Hermit Angran fell unconscious without realizing it, and his actions were completely based on the instinct of the exotic beast. He didn't wake up until two days later.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he burst into tears of despair.

In front of Hermit Angran was the head of a fox, at least a thousand meters in size, half-exposed in the mountains of the Mustard Seed Foothills.

Beside Hermit Angran, Ren Qing's light and shadow avatar was looking at the fox's head.
