The Secret Way of Immortality
#169 - The Goat Arrives
The contents of the pill formula were all from Huang Qi's perspective, narrating the events that occurred after the destruction of the Wuwei Taoist Temple, with bewilderment permeating between the lines.
Heavenly Daozi ostensibly regarded the survivors as seeds for the inheritance of the Daoist tradition, but in fact, they were pills for repairing the injuries of the soul.
The Heavenly Dao Insect within their bodies was probably also cruelly extracted.
However, in the end, Heavenly Daozi went mad, and Huang Qi became a fish that slipped through the net.
Nevertheless, Huang Qi still firmly believed in Heavenly Daozi's mad ravings, and for more than thirty years, he worked hard to improve the pill for the Heavenly Devilization of the Soul.
Ren Qing fell into deep thought as he looked at the pill formula.
The pill formula had been heavily revised, and the materials involved had become purely flesh and bones, and of course, the most important thing was the aura of the Heavenly Devil.
All the materials had to be corroded with the aura of the Heavenly Devil before they could be refined.
This pill was called "Transformation into Devil."
Huang Qi thought that the Transformation into Devil Pill could help Heavenly Daozi regain his sanity, but unfortunately, he died in the end due to the alienation of his soul.
Ren Qing couldn't help but feel tempted.
Although the drawbacks of the Transformation into Devil Pill were very serious, there was always a way to circumvent them.
If it could be used to enhance the soul, it would indeed be a way to deal with the Supreme Heavenly Devil, and the required materials were relatively common after the improvement.
Ren Qing put away the pill formula again.
Then, he transferred all the resources of the Douluo Palace into the abdominal prison, as he didn't plan to come here again anyway.
Unknowingly, Ren Qing had almost emptied the Taoist temple, and before he could prepare to leave, another incident occurred outside the Douluo Palace.
Splashes of water flew, and a strange and inexplicable bleating of sheep echoed in the sky above the pond.
Seeing this, Ren Qing couldn't help but sigh, his eyes looked at the position of the window, and the ghost shadow and the divided soul immediately returned to the real world.
The anomaly was caused by Heavenly Daozi, who had transformed into a Black Goat, and he was walking towards the Douluo Palace, the aura he exuded causing the surroundings to distort.
Heavenly Daozi had not been seen for a while, and his body had become more and more inhuman, almost unrecognizable, and it was probably difficult to retain any sanity.
In comparison, the Strange Infant was like a small fight.
Ren Qing took advantage of the gap to leave the Wuwei Dojo.
For a long time to come, he did not intend to enter it again, lest he be inadvertently affected by the Supreme Heavenly Devil.
Ren Qing sat in the Fire Worker Hall to rest for a while, and through the clues explored by some of the ghost shadows, he found that the birth of the Strange Infant was nearing its end.
Many places in the suburbs had been sealed off, the residents might not be able to detect the strangeness, but the yamen's constables were obviously busier.
Not only did they have to patrol the streets, but the entrances and exits leading to the suburbs also had to be strictly guarded.
Ren Qing was about to go and see the area under his jurisdiction when he suddenly noticed a crow stopping outside the window, looking around.
He couldn't help but twitch his lips, and then opened the window.
The crow spat out a piece of paper and turned into meat paste.
Ren Qing looked at the contents of the note, but his expression became more and more solemn.
It was possible that Li Tiangang realized Ren Qing's inaction and specially sent the message to him, briefly describing the stakes involved.
According to Li Tiangang, the weight of each Strange Infant should be exactly the same, but recently it had become lighter and lighter, and it was very likely that a Strange Infant with a more serious aberration would be born.
For the rest of the jailers, this was a big trouble.
But Ren Qing remembered the Transformation into Devil Pill, and felt that he could take some remnants of the Heavenly Devil's soul in the chaos, and then use the Heavenly Devil's bones to repair the Strange Infant's soul.
He hurried to the western suburbs, and the ghost shadow covered himself as he walked.
Today, the sky was getting more and more gloomy, just in time to hide his tracks.
The closer Ren Qing got to the farm, the more he felt the atmosphere was as silent as death, and he could only hear the barking of stray dogs.
A few birds occasionally cut through the night sky, or they were eyeliners controlled by the jailers.
Ren Qing swept over with his heavy pupils, and those jailers who were hiding were nowhere to escape, no matter how exquisite the art was.
After all, the Twin Nightmare Demon pupil technique was not just to strengthen the naked eye, but also to view more imperceptible auras from the perspective of the divided soul.
Ren Qing then cast the Immortal in the Mirror, walking in the farm as if no one else was there.
A jailer transformed into a cheetah was lying on a pear tree, but he couldn't see Ren Qing walking slowly past in front of him.
Ren Qing was happy to see this, it was best if everything was safe and sound, anyway, as a guarding jailer, there were blood crystal rewards for taking action or not.
After wandering around, he found a vacant house to live in.
Since it was impossible to predict when the Strange Infant would be born, he didn't have to be vigilant all the time, he could rely on the divided soul and the ghost shadow to patrol.
Ren Qing simply swallowed some eyeballs and closed his eyes to observe the Gluttonous Law.
Now his lifespan had already touched sixty years again, and he was naturally racing against time.
It was best to gather seventy years of lifespan before the next ghost market ended.
The preparations for the early stage of the Ksitigarbha Soul Summoning seemed slow, but once the Jailer Hall launched the plan, it would definitely be as swift as thunder.
The Gluttonous Law caused a unique sound to be emitted from the stomach, but it was covered by the ghost shadow covering the whole body.
For Ren Qing, it was just changing places to cultivate, in fact, there was not much difference between the Fire Worker Hall and the suburban farm.
Even the Fire Worker Hall was noisier.
But for the jailers lurking nearby, waiting for the birth of an unknown strange creature was undoubtedly an extremely煎熬thing.
The Jailer Hall's Ksitigarbha Soul Summoning, except for some probationary members, all the jailers were inevitably involved.
It was just that the division of labor was slightly different.
It was said that the Jailer Hall transferred the Lycoris radiata to the Rotten Mud Society's cave, where it was taken care of by more than a dozen jailers, and the time for watering the remnant souls was accurate to a few breaths.
Zhang Qiu was in the shadows of the eaves.
He kept spitting out scarlet red, using the ability of the Snake Shedding Method to sense the aura, so as to distinguish whether the Strange Infant was born.
Because the Strange Infant could affect the surroundings, what the naked eye saw was not real, so each area had jailers with similar art abilities.
As long as Zhang Qiu issued a reminder, the nearby jailers would immediately take action.
With their cooperation, the previous Strange Infant parasitisms had been safely passed, and only one person was accidentally injured by his companion.
But Zhang Qiu clearly felt that although the strength of the Strange Infant was gradually decreasing, it had become difficult to detect its aura, and it was becoming more and more difficult to deal with.
Li Tiangang had also sent a message with a crow not long ago, warning to be careful of the Strange Infant that was about to appear.
Thinking of this, Zhang Qiu's face showed a strong look of fear.
Even though the Jailer Hall had been emphasizing that the Strange Infant was some kind of existence affected by a strange object, discerning people could see that something was wrong.
He clearly remembered that the people were still talking and laughing in the previous moment, but just within a hundred meters of the Strange Infant's birth, they turned into half-human, half-sheep monsters in the blink of an eye.
What made the jailers feel the most fear was that the alienation brought by the Strange Infant was not only aimed at the body, but even the soul would be alienated.
So in the face of such a situation, it was inevitable that everyone was in danger.
Zhang Qiu had already controlled the situation very well, but he was still uneasy.
When his attention was focused on distinguishing the aura, he suddenly felt a faint mist enveloped the surroundings.
Not long after, figures gathered together.
Zhang Qiu glanced at the corner of his eye, but saw Xu Shilin appear beside him, his unique art was relatively unique even in the Jailer Hall.
He was not surprised at all, but continued to pay attention to the farm.
"Zhang Qiu, judging from the situation in the other urban areas, a total of twenty-five Strange Infants have been controlled, and it is currently nearing its end."
Zhang Qiu breathed a sigh of relief, the remaining seven or eight Strange Infants should not take a few days, just need to be wary of the situation that Li Tiangang said.
Xu Shilin hesitated and said: "A jailer in the east of the city has had his body alienated and has been imprisoned in the stomach within the stomach."
"Um..."
"Don't tell them, it is easy to cause fear when encircling and suppressing the Strange Infant."
Zhang Qiu's face became more and more solemn.
Fortunately, there were several Yin Cha Realm powerhouses in Sanxiang City, so there would be no deaths, but the alienation was even more terrifying than the Chimei and Liuli.
Stomach within the stomach... In the past few decades, only Ren Qing has been able to walk out of it safely.
"Don't worry, there should be a Ghost Envoy Realm powerhouse who has undergone three Strange Transformations in the western city, but the situation is relatively stable and has not appeared."
"That's good, but don't delay the big event."
Xu Shilin nodded and left, and soon returned to his garrison position.
Zhang Qiu took a deep breath, took out a few copper coins from his arms to calculate a hexagram, and inexplicably felt that the Strange Infant's descent would inevitably be ominous.
Although divination was not an art method, he usually believed in divination, and he couldn't help but feel more and more uncertain.
Zhang Qiu had contacted Li Tiangang with Mingyu a few days ago, wanting to know the jailer who was stationed in the western suburbs, but he did not expect that the other party did not tell him.
Seeing the severe situation gradually fermenting, Zhang Qiu was a little anxious.
Little did he know that not far from where he was under the eaves, Ren Qing was sitting cross-legged on the ground observing the art, yawning in his mouth.
He was extremely confident.
The ghost shadow carried the divided soul around the farm, and once something happened, it would be faster than those vigilant jailers to react.
At this moment, the goats in the entire farm let out strange cries.
The jailers suddenly became nervous, if Zhang Qiu had not issued an order, they might have been unable to help but panic and take action.
The sense of oppression brought by the Strange Infant was too strong, completely unlike ordinary strange objects.
Ren Qing opened his eyes, the ghost shadow instantly returned to the main body, but the divided soul had already floated in the sky above the farm, so as to observe the overall situation.
Zhang Qiu forcibly calmed down.
He didn't want to wait any longer, and let out a unique snake-like tone in his mouth, which immediately spread out.
In fact, this was the ability that Zhang Qiu obtained from a Strange Transformation in the Ghost Envoy Realm, called [Snake Cavity], the sound could spread for several miles, and he could also communicate with snakes through it.
The jailers acted after hearing this.
Various arts led by Xu Shilin were displayed.
The water mist floated into the air, and several bats flew into it and exploded, turning the mist into a strange blood red.
The strong wind howled, and the blood mist slowly condensed.
Zhang Qiu nodded secretly.
Through the fit of the arts between the jailers, he temporarily prepared two sets of arts for offense and defense.
The blood poison mist was always unfavorable in the previous Strange Infant descents.
Moo...
A standing goat walked out of a house north of the farm.
Seeing this, Zhang Qiu quickly used the snake cavity to signal the blood poison mist, and the mist then condensed into water droplets and slammed down, and the goat turned into minced meat.
His expression became stiff, how could the Strange Infant be easily killed.
Moo moo moo...
The bleating of sheep rose and fell.
Dozens of standing goats came to the street, and it could be seen from the blood stains at their joints that they seemed to be affected by the power of the Strange Infant.
The Strange Infant had not yet descended, but it was too late to re-display the blood poison mist.
Cold sweat broke out on Zhang Qiu's forehead.
What made him think about it in horror was that the Strange Infant seemed to be able to predict the future...
