The Secret Way of Immortality

Ren Qing used the Dao-birth Dao to pull the ghost shadow into the Non-Action Dao Field.

The Fire Refining Palace was quite far from the Non-Action Hall, requiring at least half an hour to reach.

Soon after, the ghost shadow appeared beside the separated soul.

Having separated from the main body, it seemed unnatural, circling the separated soul like a cat or dog.

Ren Qing controlled the ghost shadow to stop in place.

The separated soul successfully merged into the ghost shadow, mainly because the latter showed no resistance.

Under Ren Qing's control, the ghost shadow came to the edge of the lotus leaf. After a long period of cultivation in the water, it did not show any resistance.

However, the ghost shadow still instinctively feared the aura emitted by the Heavenly Dao worm.

Ren Qing comforted the ghost shadow for a while, and then the ghost shadow slowly flowed into the pond, swimming towards the Non-Action Hall.

He was a little nervous at first, fearing that the ghost shadow would be lost in the Non-Action Dao Field, and it would take a lot of time to nurture it again.

But unexpectedly, the Heavenly Dao worm larva were not very interested in the ghost shadow.

Even if a few maggots occasionally came over, they would turn around and leave after a while.

Ren Qing told the ghost shadow to speed up as much as possible, after all, the Heavenly Dao worm had intelligence, and if it noticed something unusual, it was likely to be all in vain.

The ghost shadow gradually went deeper into the pond.

Everything went smoothly along the way, but as the Non-Action Hall got closer and closer, Ren Qing's heart suddenly rose to his throat.

He thought to himself that things were bad, and vaguely felt a premonition of danger.

A shadow on the water surface went from deep to shallow, emitting a terrifying aura like a tangible substance. The giant maggot had clearly set its sights on the ghost shadow.

The ghost shadow had only just been born, and had never seen such a scene. It desperately swam towards its destination.

The giant maggot's mouth covered the water surface, and the invisible pressure made people feel suffocated. The nearby Heavenly Dao worm larva all dodged.

Ren Qing realized that sometimes size was not directly proportional to flexibility. Despite its hundred-meter body, its speed was even faster than the smaller Heavenly Dao worm larva.

From the giant maggot revealing its shadow to leaping out of the water, it took no more than five breaths.

Bang!!!

The chrysanthemum-shaped mouth opened and closed, and the waves swept across the pond.

Ren Qing's main body's face was pale. Although the damage to the ghost shadow was not enough to injure him, it still had some impact.

"Fortunately, I left a backup plan..."

Most of the ghost shadow's body was swallowed by the giant maggot, but a remnant escaped from the teeth with the separated soul.

It just so happened to use the assistance brought by the waves to reach the Non-Action Hall.

However, when it climbed onto the lotus leaf, only a fist-sized ball remained.

Ren Qing brought the ghost shadow back to the outside world.

In order to recover from its injuries, the ghost shadow turned into a shadow and began to absorb blood again.

Ren Qing ignored it and continued to focus his attention on the Non-Action Dao Field. In front of the separated soul was the magnificent Non-Action Hall.

The Non-Action Hall towered into the clouds, and its exterior was actually more like a mountain peak, covered with caves of varying sizes.

These caves were the places where the core disciples cultivated.

Ren Qing was not in a hurry to climb the mountain peak. After all, there were hundreds of caves, and searching them one by one would be too time-consuming.

He carefully pondered the location of the caves in the mountain, similar to the acupoints around the body.

It made sense for the Non-Action Daoist Temple to arrange the caves in this way.

After all, the difference between each Heavenly Dao technique mainly lies in the different parts of the body into which the Heavenly Dao egg is integrated, which corresponds to the acupoints.

Ren Qing's eyes locked on the Heavenly Pivot acupoint near the waist, located near the human navel, which was the location of the Underworld Skill's Heavenly Dao egg.

The separated body then climbed the mountain.

Passing by the Gushing Spring acupoint cave at the foot of the mountain, he noticed that the Non-Action Hall was a bit too desolate.

The entrance of the cave was overgrown with weeds, and white bones were half-buried in the soil. He could even see unknown graves.

However, the scene of the Non-Action Daoist Temple's prosperity appeared in Ren Qing's mind.

Dozens of core disciples sat in front of the cave, and the Heavenly Dao Child stood on the top of the mountain, the sound of debate resounding throughout the Dao Field.

"It's a pity that the Heavenly Dao you cultivate does not belong to the Heavenly Dao of humans."

Ren Qing felt a little regretful, and soon came to the Heavenly Pivot acupoint cave, and could still see that there should have been a river passing through it.

Now only the dry riverbed remains, and some fish bones.

He didn't dare to relax and walked into the cave vigilantly.

A gust of breeze blew. Perhaps because of some kind of formation, the weeds were separated at the entrance. The interior decoration was similar to that of ordinary Taoist temples.

Wooden table, incense burner, futon...

Even if the cave was simple, others could tell at a glance that it was a place for cultivating the Dao.

Ren Qing carefully rummaged through the items in the Heavenly Pivot acupoint cave. They were all scattered things, and there was even a sachet for female embroidery, obviously given by a senior sister or junior sister who was in love.

He pulled out a few pages of yellowed family letters. From the content above, he learned that the monk living in this cave was called Huang Qi.

The contents of the family letters were all about urging his parents to take care of their health and asking how the business of the alchemy shop in Jingzhou City was going.

It can be seen that under the development of the Heavenly Dao Child, the proportion of monks in Jingzhou was definitely higher than that in Xiangxiang.

I'm afraid that before the Heavenly Dao worm attacked, Jingzhou should have been extremely stable, and every mortal wanted to join the Non-Action Daoist Temple.

In a sense, this is the normal world of cultivation...

Therefore, after the Heavenly Dao Child encountered the devastating Heavenly Dao worm disaster, he completely went crazy.

Ren Qing searched carefully and finally found the Underworld Skill under the pillow. Many annotations were written on the pages.

Huang Qi's talent should be slightly worse than the other core disciples, so he tried to make up for it with diligence.

Ren Qing put the Underworld Skill into the abdominal prison, and then continued to search, but did not find any clues about the Heavenly Dao egg.

He didn't feel regretful. There were hundreds of caves in the Non-Action Hall, and he would definitely be able to find the Heavenly Dao egg, so there was no need to rush.

Anyway, it would take some time for the ghost shadow to recover, so he might as well take this opportunity to study the Underworld Skill.

The separated soul returned to the foot of the mountain again, starting from the Gushing Spring acupoint and searching through the caves one by one.

Ren Qing also gradually completed the impression of the Non-Action Daoist Temple in his mind from the information revealed by the small objects in the caves.

In a cultivation sect composed of thousands of monks, there would inevitably be intrigues, but the Heavenly Dao Child tried his best to maintain fairness.

Xiao Chenzi was a disciple of the Heavenly Dao Child and also the senior brother of the Non-Action Dao Field, and also served as the elder of the Secret Collection Pavilion.

Compared with the Non-Action Daoist Temple, the recruitment of the Forbidden Soldiers Hall was simply perfunctory.

Of course, it was also related to the technique itself. After all, the Forbidden Soldiers Hall monks would form a restricted area after death, so it was impossible to blindly pursue quantity.

The monks of the Heavenly Dao technique would only have the Heavenly Dao worm leave their bodies after death, so different cultivation environments were formed.

Ren Qing continued to search through a dozen caves. Although he didn't find the Heavenly Dao egg, he found the empty porcelain bottles that had previously contained the Heavenly Dao egg.

The latest novel is first published on 6|9|shu|ba!

After he had a clear understanding, his speed naturally accelerated a lot.

When Ren Qing arrived at the Blood Sea acupoint cave near the knee, he was about to move inside when he suddenly noticed something was wrong.

Nearby plants were twisted, and the wind was whistling.

Just looking at the appearance of the trees, they were definitely not any kind of mortal species.

The tree trunks were covered with fist-sized holes and covered with black vines. The mountain wind passed through the holes, forming a strange crying sound.

Ren Qing narrowed his eyes and his breathing became rapid.

He definitely didn't notice such abnormalities when he went to the Heavenly Pivot acupoint, indicating that it appeared recently, so there was only one possibility...

He turned his head stiffly, and an indescribable monster stood in the distance.

The head, which resembled a cow and a sheep, was looking at Ren Qing with indifferent eyes.

Compared to the last time they met, the Heavenly Dao Child had more deformed features, and an arm covered with black hair grew on his shoulder.

"You are not a disciple of the Non-Action Daoist Temple, how did you enter the Non-Action Hall?"

Ren Qing didn't expect the Heavenly Dao Child's thoughts to be so clear. After hesitating for a few breaths, he didn't choose to let the separated soul leave.

He tentatively opened his mouth and replied, "Master Ancestor, I am an outer disciple of the Non-Action Daoist Temple..."

"Impossible!!!"

The Heavenly Dao Child's expression became ferocious, and he kept moving forward, the surrounding vines wriggling like long snakes.

"You haven't even cultivated the Entry Method, how could you be an outer disciple?!"

He grabbed Ren Qing's neck.

Seeing this, Ren Qing quickly pulled the heavily injured and unhealed ghost shadow into the Non-Action Dao Field.

The ghost shadow and the separated soul were originally from the same source. After merging with each other, the aura emitted could naturally not be distinguished. The Entry Method was revealed in time.

The Heavenly Dao Child's palm retracted when it was only half a finger away from his neck.

He then said in a soothing tone, "Don't run around when you just become an outer disciple. It's not good to accidentally enter the Non-Action Hall."

"Yes, yes, yes..."

Ren Qing took a few steps back, his legs slightly weak.

"What kind of cultivation method did you choose?"

"Back to Master Ancestor, it's the Underworld Skill."

The Heavenly Dao Child's expression was slightly dazed, and then he said, "It's not bad, it's enough with your talent, Huang Qi. You will definitely be one of the core disciples in the future."

"Huang Qi..."

Ren Qing had no choice but to nod and admit it.

After hesitating for a few breaths, he asked, "Master Ancestor, I'm almost ready to cultivate the Underworld Skill, but the Heavenly Dao egg has not yet been settled."

The Heavenly Dao Child raised his eyebrows and said in a sharp tone, "What's going on with Xiao Chenzi? There can be negligence in matters concerning disciples."

"You wait here, I'll be right back."

After the Heavenly Dao Child finished speaking, he disappeared, leaving Ren Qing alone standing in place.

Ren Qing comforted the ghost shadow, feeling that he was really a bit too courageous, but at most the separated soul and the ghost shadow would be lost at the same time.

He waited anxiously, but only half a stick of incense later, the Heavenly Dao Child's figure had already appeared at the foot of the Non-Action Hall.

Ren Qing quickly caught the porcelain bottle thrown by the Heavenly Dao Child, which contained an amber the size of a fingernail, and it could be clearly seen that it was a Heavenly Dao worm larva.

"Thank you, Master Ancestor."

"Huang Qi, spend more energy and strive to reach the inner disciple level as soon as possible."

"Dao-birth Dao, Non-Action Dao..."

The Heavenly Dao Child began to mutter inexplicably again, mixed with nonsense, and his mental state was obviously not very good.

Without waiting for the Heavenly Dao Child to say more, Ren Qing directly withdrew from the Non-Action Dao Field.

He was afraid that the Heavenly Dao Child would suddenly go crazy. Don't look at him being kind and kind now, but he could turn the Secret Collection Pavilion into ruins with a wave of his hand.

Ren Qing breathed a sigh of relief, and then put the Heavenly Dao egg into the abdominal prison.

Once the ghost shadow's injuries recovered, he could try to master the Underworld Skill, but judging from the process of cultivating the Entry Method, it should not be simple.

It would inevitably require slow and steady effort.

Ren Qing happened to take advantage of the free time to accumulate lifespan.

After the ghost shadow entered the Underworld Skill, he would prepare to leave the Stomach-in-Stomach.
