The Secret Way of Immortality
#124 - No matter how strong you are, you have to pay with your life
The Immortal Master let out a mournful cry.
After his brain was pierced by the Dragon-Snake Spine, he fell powerlessly to the ground, his flesh and blood gradually showing signs of collapse.
Ren Qing retrieved the Dragon-Snake Spine, the shattered brain appearing in his palm.
He threw it to Zeng Lin not far away to deal with; only after crushing the brain would the Immortal Master truly die, but it also represented the loss of control of the strange object.
"You…"
Before Zeng Lin could finish speaking, Ren Qing headed towards the dense jungle.
Ren Qing's condition was no better than the Immortal Master's.
Even though the confrontation had only lasted about ten minutes, his mind was already filled with violence and slaughter; even if he wanted to seal the strange object of the Divine Foot Sutra, for some reason his instinct was preventing him.
In such a situation, Ren Qing only wanted to find a place to rest and recuperate.
Just as he was about to leave.
The unconscious Liu Bao woke up; he looked around with a dazed expression, and couldn't help but curse loudly when he saw the mountain god statue in the distance.
"This is the statue that we mountain people have been worshiping for hundreds of years, you people from the yamen…"
Liu Bao suddenly sensed something was wrong; a huge shadow loomed over him from behind, and he was immediately too scared to move.
"Noisy!!!"
Feeling deeply annoyed, Ren Qing stomped down with force.
Only a loud noise was heard, and Liu Bao turned into a pile of minced meat.
Ren Qing's eyes turned red, and he遁入 (dùnrù -遁入 means遁入山林 head into the mountains) the mountain forest, found a shady spot, sat cross-legged on the ground, and began to visualize the Nameless Method, quickly immersing himself in darkness.
His heart, on the contrary, became calm.
The strange object of the Divine Foot Sutra let out an unwilling roar, wanting to continue to influence Ren Qing, but it was forcibly confined within the alien stomach by the prison in his belly.
The alienated features disappeared like flowing water.
Ren Qing's body returned to normal, but there were still traces of lycanthropy, such as the canine teeth in his mouth and the excessively thick body hair, which he had to slowly eliminate.
Zeng Lin and Lei Bin exchanged glances, the two of them preparing to clean up the mess.
They wanted to check on the condition of the Ghost Wolf cultivator, lest the other party go mad and accidentally injure the residents.
At this moment, fine, drizzling rain suddenly fell, enveloping Crane Mountain between the water and the sky.
On the mountain path, a figure wearing a Daoist robe walked slowly.
As the mountain wind blew, it revealed a head with only half a brain left.
"The Dao begets the Dao, the Dao of inaction…"
From the surface, the blind Daoist didn't show much of a sense of oppression at all, like an ordinary person without any cultivation.
Ren Qing had just released a wisp of his soul to be on guard, when he suddenly noticed the blind Daoist, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
An extreme sense of fear surged into his heart, even making him unable to move.
Only then did Ren Qing realize that Xiao Chenzi's cultivation could never be at the Ghost Envoy realm, but at the Yin Official realm above it.
Even if Xiao Chenzi was severely injured for some reason, in the eyes of the Heavy Pupils, he still couldn't see even the slightest flaw.
Moreover, he vaguely had a premonition that even if he transformed into a Ghost Wolf, he would never be his opponent, even without the slightest resistance.
Ren Qing struggled to get up and wanted to get away, but the draining of his lifespan made him weak all over, plus there was bound to be a recovery period after stripping away the strange object.
The facts proved that even with the prison in his belly, it was difficult to control a completely alienated strange object.
Such means could only be used as a trump card, and Ren Qing wasn't even sure if he would completely lose his mind the next time he used it.
Lei Bin frowned, and stopped Zeng Lin with his hand.
Seeing that the blind Daoist looked ordinary, he only thought that he was a reinforcement from the Forbidden Corps Hall, so he got up to greet him.
Just as Zeng Lin reacted and wanted to remind him, the blind Daoist had already arrived at the ridge, and then just waved his hand.
Lei Bin immediately turned into smoke and dust.
After the death of a Forbidden Corpse, a strange object was born, which was a piece of flesh composed of twisted arms, but it was grabbed by the blind Daoist and thrown into the mountains.
He ignored Zeng Lin and walked straight to the altar.
The blind Daoist's goal was the mountain of corpses of the Immortal Master.
The Immortal Master regained some consciousness in a daze, and he said with a hopeful tone: "Master, save me…"
The blind Daoist ignored him, his upper body cracked open, forming a huge mouth, and directly swallowed the Immortal Master.
Then his back bulged, and one could vaguely see a maggot crawling inside, seemingly preparing to break out of his body.
The Immortal Master would never have imagined that he was Xiao Chenzi's food.
The hope for returning to human form was still in his eyes just now, but in the next second, he gradually watched his body fall into the blind Daoist's mouth.
However, even if the blind Daoist swallowed the corpse of the Immortal Master, it was still far from the Egg of the Heavenly Dao, and the bulge subsided again.
The blind Daoist looked around, seemingly wanting to enlighten others, but he was not very satisfied with Zeng Lin and others.
An ominous premonition arose in Ren Qing's heart, and he forcibly stood up with the little strength he had recovered from digesting the eyeballs.
Just as he wanted to run away, he felt like he was being stared at.
Sure enough, the blind Daoist was staring at Ren Qing, it was obvious that he valued Ren Qing's talent for mastering the Dao begets the Dao.
Ren Qing, as a Great Dao Official, was even much higher than the Immortal Master.
The blind Daoist's mutterings echoed throughout the mountains: "The Dao begets the Dao, the Dao of inaction…"
After hearing this, Ren Qing inevitably had the urge to kneel down and worship.
The blind Daoist instantly appeared in front of Ren Qing, his pale arm suspended in mid-air, preparing to stroke the top of his head to grant him longevity.
Ren Qing couldn't help but curse a few times in his heart.
How much of the blind Daoist's consciousness was left, it seemed that he was close to collapse.
Now he still had the leisure to accept disciples and impart the Dao, shouldn't he leave immediately? The Forbidden Corps Hall was definitely rushing here.
Wait.
Ren Qing suddenly realized the most crucial point, why didn't the strange object form a forbidden area after the cultivator died, could it be…
If the Forbidden Corps had arrived in advance, if he wanted them to take action to save him, he probably needed to show that the alienation had not affected his soul.
Ren Qing's eyes narrowed, the Dragon-Snake Spine drilled out of his palm and quickly extended, the target was the bulge on the blind Daoist's back.
Such an attack would naturally not work.
But it attracted the blind Daoist's attention, just as he continued to approach Ren Qing, a huge halo enveloped Crane Mountain.
Everything in Crane Mountain Town seemed to be frozen in place, forming a page full of scenery.
The page turned, the town disappeared, along with the entire Crane Mountain, leaving only the flat ground at the bottom of the mountain.
One could even see half a earthworm still wriggling in it.
The blind Daoist stood there dumbfounded.
The latest novels are available on 69书吧 (liushu ba) first!
Li Tiangang appeared not far away, holding a page pulled from his head in his hand, with a full view of Crane Mountain on it.
"I didn't expect it to be a Heavenly Dao Worm, the thing recorded in the legends and classics…"
After Li Tiangang pondered for a moment, he opened his mouth with a flat expression and said hello.
"Does this fellow Daoist have any consciousness?"
The blind Daoist seemed to feel the threat brought by Li Tiangang, he teleported dozens of meters away, and swung his arm fiercely towards him.
Li Tiangang still didn't dodge or evade, muttering like a neurotic, and constantly recording in his palm.
And in the mid-air behind him, a figure fell like a meteor.
This person had six eyes and four arms.
Song Zongwu no longer had to worry about whether there were mortals nearby, and his aura was directly pulled to the extreme, with bursts of whistling sounds breaking through the air.
"Right eye three, swiftness."
"Left eye two, strength."
"Left eye one, agility."
Song Zongwu's leg muscles swelled, leaving a deep pit in place, and appeared in front of Li Tiangang to block the attack.
Then he punched!
Bang!!!
The fist hit the blind Daoist's face hard, and then the four arms turned into afterimages, only a dense collision sound could be heard.
Song Zongwu beat the blind Daoist flying up and down, the ground was like the surface of the moon, full of craters of different sizes.
However, even if the blind Daoist's body was broken, as long as the Egg of the Heavenly Dao was not damaged, it could recover at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Li Tiangang muttered to himself: "According to records, the last time the Heavenly Dao Worm invaded Xiangxiang should have been 150 years ago, this thing is much more evil than those Eastern ghosts."
He suddenly reacted: "Song Zongwu, take him to the Forbidden Corps Hall…"
"Okay."
Song Zongwu agreed verbally, but his fists still didn't stop, probably because he was holding back a breath in his heart after seeing Ren Qing's miserable state.
Li Tiangang took out another page and spread it out in front of him.
Suddenly, a door with a hundred meters in diameter enveloped the surroundings, and then directly devoured the blind Daoist, this was the entrance to Avici Hell.
When the blind Daoist arrived at the Forbidden Corps Hall, there would naturally be榫 (sǔn - a tenon) to deal with it, and it was likely to be temporarily detained in the Land of Nether Feathers.
Song Zongwu retracted the six-eyed judgment technique, his face looking a little gloomy.
"Li Tiangang, what do you think of Ren Qing's situation?"
Li Tiangang nodded slightly and said: "The alienation is very serious, that werewolf appearance, the strange object has almost occupied the body and soul."
"According to common sense, such serious strangeness is impossible to return to human form, but it seems that Ren Qing can break away."
Song Zongwu's face looked a little better, at least Ren Qing was not hopeless.
Li Tiangang continued: "But some loose cultivators pursue power and will indeed try to alienate, thus exhausting their potential."
"If the Land Lord hadn't wanted to use that seed devil scripture's herb to alleviate the alienation, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been scattered and died."
Song Zongwu understood what Li Tiangang meant, and couldn't help but sigh.
Alienation is like a double-edged sword, although it can gain strength far beyond the same realm, it will gradually fall into a bottomless abyss.
If it is passively alienated towards the direction of strange objects like Lin Cheng, it is okay, after all, the state of mind still resists alienation.
What is most feared is actively abandoning the human body and moving closer to the direction of strange objects.
Therefore, the Forbidden Corps Hall is deeply taboo about this point of alienation.
Li Tiangang suddenly remembered something and asked with a strange tone: "By the way, did you let him master the Gluttony Method?"
The means to control strange objects, the only known is the alienation route of the Gluttony Method's sub-stomach possessor, which represents the potential like Ksitigarbha.
"No."
Song Zongwu shook his head and said.
He was now a little suspicious of life, the original teaching of the Gluttony Method was to give Ren Qing a few more points of survival ability.
Who could have imagined that Ren Qing would come up with a way to confine strange objects.
Li Tiangang waved his hand and said: "Then temporarily detain Ren Qing in the Stomach within a Stomach, and observe for a period of time before making a decision."
He reopened the page, and Crane Mountain Town returned to its original position.
"Stomach within a Stomach…"
Song Zongwu's eyes were deep, and he grabbed the dazed Ren Qing and knocked him unconscious.
