Chronicles of Celestial Origins

The man was silent for a while, with a look of horror in his eyes: "At that time, I was lying on a stone bed, with only skin and bones left from the head down, which is what I look like now. There were also long black tubes inserted into my body, from head to head. There are dozens of legs.”

"There is also a stone bed on my left side. Lying on it is a fat woman with a bulging belly. Rather than saying she is a human, it is more vivid to say that she is a sow in human skin."

"There was a part of a black hose on my body connected to her body, and little red bugs kept crawling from her body through the tube into my body."

"There are four or five transparent crystal boxes lined up on my right side, about a foot high. They are full of squirming flesh and blood, beating as regularly as the human heart."

"There is a crystal box connected to a tube in another part of my body, which is also filled with flesh and blood."

"In addition, behind me, there are three crystal boxes with a height of three feet, which contain three naked women. The crystal boxes are filled with an unknown green liquid."

"There is a row of cabinets and a stone table in front. There are many bottles and jars scattered on the stone table. Some bottles and jars are transparent. I can see colorful liquids and powders inside."

"The room was filled with a pungent fishy smell, and the Yin Qi was very strong. The Yin Qi in the room condensed into a substantial black mist."

"There were seven or eight rooms like this in the entire basement. I was so frightened at the time that I didn't check them one by one. I ripped off the thin black tubes from my body and hurriedly escaped."

Tang Ning listened to him describe the weirdness in the basement and imagined the scene. Her hair stood on end. It was quite creepy. No wonder this man's eyes were filled with fear. No one else could have withstood it!

Jiang Yunsheng asked: "Have you met any monks who have experienced the same thing as you in the past two years? Do you think you are any different from them?"

The man said: "I met two Qi Refining monks in Qi State. I could vaguely sense that their situation was the same as mine, because when I got close to them, I had an indescribable feeling of being ready to move."

"The first time was when I first came to Qi State. When I was passing through Lantian County, my heart suddenly moved. There seemed to be something pulling me."

"I followed my feeling and came to a deep mountain. Sure enough, I met a Qi Refining Cultivator. I talked with him about our respective situations and found out that he, like me, usually falls into coma every time the moon is full."

"The second time was near Luo Biyuanfang City. I found another Qi Refining monk based on my intuition. So far, I know that there are many monks like me, and they can sense each other. I don't dare to meet them again. , Afraid of exposing myself, I hurried away every time I felt heart palpitations.”

"The biggest difference between them and me is in appearance. Their appearance has not changed at all, but I..."

Jiang Yunsheng continued: "We once captured an undead essence source host. He confessed that he met a foundation-building host in the mountains of Lantian County. I think that was you. But he said that you gave him a very different feeling. It’s different from other hosts, do you know what’s going on?”

"I don't know, I don't feel that way."

Tangning asked, "Do you know that you have gained powerful self-healing ability?"

"I don't know. Since I became like this, I have been hiding here and there and have never fought with anyone. When I capture "prey", I always select some Qi Refining disciples with low cultivation level and have never been injured."

The three people interrogated him for a long time, and finally Jiang Yunsheng waved his hand and ordered the Shuiyun Sect disciples to suppress him.

"Fellow Daoist Tang, Fellow Daoist Jiang, what do you think?"

Jiang Yuhuan said: "I think all his abnormalities, including the incomplete shape of his body that feels different from other hosts, etc., are all because he had an accident in the process of becoming a corpse insect host. This is why he can remember The reason for the situation at that time.”

"The person behind the scenes was attacked by unknown monks during the process of refining him into a corpse insect host, so that the final step of complete refining was not completed, and he unexpectedly woke up, which made him different from others."

Jiang Yunsheng nodded and said: "Looking at his appearance, I think the people behind the scenes wanted to refine him into a puppet mummy, but an accident caused him to look like a human or a ghost."

Tang Ning said: "Didn't Guizong find two mummies in Luanshi Gang? How are they different from this person?"

Jiang Yunsheng said: "Those two mummies only had Qi refining skills and contained the first generation of undead essence in their bodies. They had no immortality or self-healing functions. When we found them, the undead essence in their bodies had dried up and was dying. We determined that those two mummies were The experiment failed, that’s why it’s still there.”

"The only similarity between them is that the source of undead essence is attached to their bones."

"I think this is the difference between the two refining techniques. If the source of undead essence is hidden in the monk's flesh and blood, the host will have autonomous consciousness. If it is attached to the bones, it will be refined into a puppet mummy."

Jiang Yuhuan said: "There is one more thing that needs attention. Just now this person said that there are four or five transparent crystal boxes containing squirming flesh and blood, and one of them is connected to his body. Does that mean that there is something inside that crystal box? The flesh and blood is his. According to this assumption, at least four or five mummy puppets have been made before him. "

Jiang Yunsheng said: "I don't rule out this possibility. Two fellow Taoists, I will force him back to the sect and hand him over to the Forbidden Secret Department for research and observation. This matter needs to be reported to our sect as soon as possible. As for the next step, I will report it to the sect." Let’s talk about it after getting instructions. Things happened in Wu State, so I can’t make decisions without permission.”

Tang Ning and Jiang Yuhuan nodded. They already knew the information they wanted. They had no reason to stop Jiang Yunsheng from forcing him back to Shuiyun Sect. Besides, having a foundation-building monk was not a big deal. Their real target was the helmsman behind them.

……………

The snowy mountains stretch for thousands of miles, and are narrow from north to south, like a giant dragon lurking. The mountains are covered with snow all year round, covering the entire mountain range in silver.

Shuiyun Sect was hidden in this mountain range. Jiang Yunsheng pressed Wang Xuan through the light curtain and entered the sect. After reporting to the Mountain Protection Department, he went to the Forbidden Secrets Department to report to Deacon Wei Tong.

The two came to a cave. Wei Tong waved his hand and handed a talisman inside.

Soon, a ray of light flashed out of the cave and landed in front of the two of them, revealing the figure of a graceful woman: "Senior Brother Wei, master, please come in."

The two of them followed her into the cave and came to a room where a skinny old man with white beard and hair sat cross-legged. It was their immediate superior, Feng Jianxing, the head of the Secret Academy.

"Disciples Wei Tong and Jiang Yunsheng pay homage to Master Feng." The two saluted.

The old man opened his eyes and nodded slightly: "What's the matter?"

"The disciple captured a foundation-building undead essence source host. He said..." Jiang Yunsheng reported the interrogation truthfully: "How to deal with this matter, I leave it to my uncle to decide."

"Do the people in Qian Yizong know about this?" the old man asked.

"The disciple originally didn't want them to know, and was preparing to take the host back, but they didn't agree and insisted on interrogating him on the spot. The disciple had no choice but to find a way to evade it, so he had no choice but to agree."

Feng Jianxing said: "The method of refining such undead creatures is quite novel. The people behind the scenes are of great value to us. If we can master the principles of this method, make improvements, and popularize it within the sect, it will be beneficial to us." There are many benefits to the sect's combat power. Therefore, you should keep an eye on the monks from the Qianyi Sect. I think they have the same purpose, but there is a principle, try not to conflict with them, and put the overall situation first."

Jiang Yunsheng said: "Disciple knows that the movements of the Qianyi Sect monks have always been under our control. However, now the clues have appeared in the territory of Wu State, which does not belong to our jurisdiction. Many things are inconvenient to do. What should we do next? Please tell me. Uncle, please tell me.”

"I will send others to take the undead source host you captured to the Kingdom of Wu to investigate. You don't need to worry about this matter for the time being. You go back and stabilize the monks of Qianyi Sect first."

"Yes, disciple understands."

"Go!"

"Farewell, disciple." Jiang Yunsheng and Wei Tong exited the cave and turned into light.

………………

The wind howled and the rain poured down. In the remote graveyard, a ray of light fell, revealing the figure of a graceful and graceful woman, with a pink face, red lips and white teeth. In fact, she is a beautiful woman, but her expression is cold, like ice that has not melted for thousands of years, which makes people stay away.

The woman came to a tombstone and turned the tombstone. The ground separated to both sides, revealing a wide passage of bluestone steps.

The steps are two to three feet wide on both sides, extending towards the bottomless darkness underground.

The woman walked down, her footsteps echoing in the empty passage, and the cracked ground closed quietly.

It was dark in the passage, and I couldn't see my fingers. After walking up hundreds of stone steps, it suddenly became bright, and the kerosene lamps on both sides were all lit up.

Two tall and thin figures appeared in front of them, standing at the end of the stone wall. They were completely devoid of flesh and blood. The two eyeballs in their sunken eyeballs were spinning around, as if they were about to fall down as soon as they lowered their heads. They turned out to be two mummies.

The woman stepped forward. The mummy on the left was leaning against the stone wall, and the stone wall suddenly separated.

A deep corridor appeared in front of us, with several mummies standing on each side of the corridor.

After passing through the corridor, it suddenly became clear that it was an empty basement space, covering an area of ​​several miles.

It was surrounded by Yin Qi, accompanied by the pungent smell of blood.

The woman had no expression on her face and turned a blind eye. She seemed to have been used to it for a long time. She walked through several rooms and came to the hall in the middle.

I saw a fat woman lying on the stone bed, with dozens of small black tubes inserted into her body.

There are more than a dozen crystal boxes placed on both sides of the stone bed, containing various strange things. There was an unknown black liquid, squirming flesh, blue gas, yellow powder, and several naked corpses.

Each crystal box has two thin black tubes connected to the fat woman on the stone bed.

One of the thin black tubes was densely packed with crimson bugs surging back and forth, while the other one imported the objects in the crystal box into the body of the obese woman on the stone bed.

On the stone bed, the obese woman had been disembowelled, and countless crimson bugs emerged from "it" and crawled into the crystal box along the black thin tubes.

In front of the stone bed, a slender man was bowing his head, concentrating on playing with the red bugs and strange things in the crystal box, kneading them together, and putting them into the belly of the fat woman.
