The Secret Way of Immortality

After the demons finished discussing the matters regarding going to the Bottomless Cave, Ren Qing's mind stirred slightly, and he simply posted a notice in the demon market.

He posted some tasks for investigating the environment of Jing Prefecture on it.

Although the City of Non-Action had been closed off, it didn't mean that they had to lose their source of information from the outside world; he could completely let the demons do it for him.

The rewards for the tasks would be blood crystals or immortal crystals.

He didn't plan to establish a separate currency for the demon market; in any case, the main purchasing power came from the Jailers and Daoist temple disciples, and having too many currencies would be troublesome.

Ren Qing patiently closed his eyes and meditated on his techniques, but after spending two days, he still couldn't calm down, and instead became increasingly impatient.

The temptation from the Yang God realm was simply irresistible.

No cultivator could resist the mental imbalance that occurred when approaching the Yang God realm; in fact, most Yin Messenger realm completionists needed more than ten years to regain their composure before attempting to break through the bottleneck again.

Compared to Ren Qing's recklessness, ordinary cultivators only had one chance.

Either they planned for decades like Grand Dream Master, finally achieving enlightenment in one day, or they took risks to seek opportunities like Song Zongwu.

Ren Qing simply stopped cultivating, lay on the bed, and closed his eyes, falling into a dream.

Light snoring soon began.

When he woke up, several days had passed, and both his body and soul were in peak condition; with each breath, he could feel true energy autonomously surging into his pores.

He summoned the information stream.

【Ren Qing】

【Lifespan: Nine Hundred and Fifty-Five Years】

"It's time to advance to the Yang God realm."

Ren Qing looked deeply into the night sky, recalling the process of gradually giving birth to strange objects within his body when he first cultivated the Jailer Law.

Now that he was about to step into the Yang God realm, it also represented complete control over the strange objects.

【Do you want to advance to the branch This World Yin God, which will consume one thousand years of lifespan?】

The Shadowless Yin Demon was named "This World Yin God" after advancing to the Yang God realm, which showed how terrifying the shadows it controlled would be.

He took a deep breath, then threw the wine mine from the Everlasting Shackles into the flesh and blood furnace to digest it, and the still lifespan soared again.

After Ren Qing exhausted the wine mine, his lifespan reached one thousand and twenty-seven years.

He sat cross-legged in the courtyard, signaling Wu Gui to completely devour his sense of existence, and then placed the aura-concealing artifacts around him.

With everything ready, Ren Qing finally confirmed in his heart that he would advance to the Yang God realm.

When the breakthrough process began, the ghost shadow beneath his feet instantly drilled into his body, spreading throughout his flesh, bones, and internal organs.

The Yang God realm was not just a transformation of strange objects; cultivators also needed to transform.

Although the Ancestor mainly referred to body refinement when establishing the realm of the Jailer Law, it must be said that there were commonalities between them.

When body refinement reached the Yang God realm, the contained diseases had already penetrated deep into the bone marrow, and the six-disease law strange objects formed by this were closely related to the body.

And the Yang God realm of the Jailer Law involved the fusion of strange objects and the body.

Ren Qing trembled all over, feeling his body gradually approaching This World Yin God, and the strange objects cowered in the corners in fear.

If one could examine Ren Qing's cells from a microscopic perspective, one would find that his cells had actually developed subtle shadows.

Even with the information stream, the process of advancing to the Yang God realm lasted for several days.

Ren Qing's skin gradually turned black inside and out, and This World Yin God roughly transformed his body, causing the other strange objects to hide tremblingly in the corners.

"Huff..."

When he completely merged into the shadows, it also represented the completion of the Yang God realm.

Ren Qing gradually restrained his aura, and his body slowly returned to normal, but the ghost shadow beneath his feet took on the shape of a dragon.

"Don't make trouble, Ghost Shadow."

The shadows from all directions quickly gathered towards Ren Qing; unexpectedly, without realizing it, the ghost shadow had covered an area of thousands of meters.

The courtyard couldn't withstand the aftermath of the Yang God realm and creaked, turning into ruins, causing nearby residents to move away.

Ren Qing glanced at his own shadow.

He still had to cultivate in seclusion next, but mainly to stabilize his realm; otherwise, the ghost shadow's movements could easily destroy half the city.

The ghost shadow's strength in all aspects had indeed increased a lot; the specific upper limit would only be clear through actual combat.

However, the benefits Ren Qing himself obtained were actually no less than the ghost shadow's.

His physique was more suitable for the Shadowless Ghost, the Divine Power Box Dragon's Roar had also been comprehensively strengthened, and the speed of enlightening pseudo-dragons was extremely fast.

Even his blood had faintly changed...

The information stream surged.

【Ren Qing】

【Lifespan: Eight Hundred and Fifty-Nine Years】

Techniques:

Shadowless Ghost (Human Skin Book, Armored Body Skill, Netherworld Law, Dragon-Snake Spine)

This World Yin God (Subdermal Ghost God, Immortal Bones, Netherworld Immortal Body, Flood Dragon Sheds into Horned Dragon)

【Divine Power: Box Dragon's Roar】

The eight hundred years of lifespan was due to the first time a technique advanced to the Yang God realm, causing Ren Qing's body to transform, thereby naturally increasing his lifespan.

Ren Qing was slightly disappointed that the secondary techniques did not follow suit and reach the Yang God realm, and then a large amount of memory appeared in his mind.

The memory was a hidden move left by some Jailer Law predecessors, solely for the inheritance of techniques.

As for why there was no memory inheritance at a low realm, it was estimated that in those years, those below the Yin Messenger realm were probably classified as "mortals".

He quickly digested the memory, which was precisely the realm division of the Yang God realm.

First was the "Multitude of Yang Immortals".

The Multitude of Yang Immortals needed to advance all secondary techniques to the Yang God realm; the more complex the technique system constructed, the more difficult it would be to break through.

If Ren Qing didn't have the information stream, he could basically be considered to have cut off his future.

After both the main and secondary techniques reached the Yang God realm, one would begin to involve the fusion of strange objects, that is, the mastery of various techniques.

This realm was called "No-Birth Immortal".

No-birth also had the meaning of death, taken from: "No-birth means not first having birth, then saying no-birth, originally not born, hence the name no-birth."

In the Yang God realm, it referred to shared death and shared life, with each strange object becoming one.

At that time, the five main and secondary techniques would all disappear, giving rise to Ren Qing's unique Ascension Law, thereby obtaining the ladder to attain Dao.

So the last realm of the Yang God realm was the "Ascension Ladder".

There were not many descriptions of the Ascension Ladder in the memory, but there were definitely risks that could threaten one's life, so one must be careful.

The end of the Immortal Ladder was the "Heavenly Aberration"; at that time, the strange object would completely merge into the body, and even after death, it could affect the world for thousands of years.

Ren Qing was only at the beginning of the Yang God realm, not even considered a Multitude of Yang Immortals.

The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ said ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥⊥ book ⊥⊥ bar ⊥⊥ first ⊥ hair!

【Some techniques have not reached the Yang God realm and cannot consume lifespan to advance】

He couldn't help but shake his head; the Multitude of Yang Immortals needed a full four secondary techniques to advance to the Yang God realm, and the lifespan required could be imagined.

Every time the lifespan exceeded one thousand years, the efficiency of prolonging life would decrease; it was estimated that above two thousand years, many methods would be useless.

"Dead Man Sutra, Dead Man Sutra..."

Regardless of whether the rumored Dead Man Forbidden Zone was in the far north or not, it would be necessary to go there in the future; otherwise, the Heavenly Aberration realm would be hopeless.

As for the later Earth Immortal, he didn't dare to think too much about it.

Ren Qing looked at the several secondary techniques with some trepidation.

【Do you want to advance the branch Primal Fetal Membrane, which will consume five hundred years of lifespan?】

【Do you want to advance the branch Underworld Wronged Immortal, which will consume five hundred years of lifespan?】

The former was the Human Skin Book, and the latter was the Netherworld Skill.

He was overjoyed, which showed that after the main technique advanced to the Yang God realm, the drawbacks that the secondary techniques needed to be exempted from had also been reduced accordingly.

If it only needed five hundred years, Ren Qing could rely on the Netherworld Skill to reach the Divine Transformation stage and obtain a large amount of lifespan, which might be enough for the "Multitude of Yang Immortals".

Or should he raise the other main techniques to the Yang God realm?

The Netherworld Skill might not even need to consume lifespan; relying on the Nether-essence provided by the Daoist temple disciples, there would be a chance to break through the bottleneck.

He couldn't help but have many thoughts, which caused the aura of This World Yin God to leak out a little, directly causing countless cracks to appear in the ground bricks.

Seeing hundreds of cultivators driving magical artifacts forward, and even the Yin Messenger realm was alarmed.

Ren Qing pinched the bridge of his nose with a headache.

After all, the span from the Yin Messenger realm to the Yang God realm was too large; even Song Zongwu couldn't immediately control his body and needed a long time to adapt.

He was thinking of leaving the dilapidated courtyard when he suddenly felt a touch in his consciousness.

Ren Qing glanced at the Everlasting Shackles, and when he scanned the dream market, he found several consciousnesses like wandering souls wandering in the demon market.

As long as one got closer, one could hear them constantly muttering "Demon Immortal, save me", which was deeply inexplicable.

"Hu Wen?"

He recognized the headless fox demon, who had probably encountered something in the Bottomless Cave.

"Could it really be a demonized alien aberration?"

Ren Qing reached out and tapped the foreheads of the four demons, and the Lord of Supreme Darkness's ability to enter dreams unfolded, helping them regain consciousness.

Hu Wen belatedly looked around, found himself in the demon market, and his expression became stunned.

Before he could say anything, he felt his consciousness being stripped out of the dream, as if what was about to greet him was boundless hell.

"Demon Immortal, save me!!!"

Hu Wen screamed hoarsely, and demons such as Zhang Yi shouted along with him; it was obvious that their words were filled with despair.

"There is... in the Bottomless Cave..."

They disappeared from the demon market.

The streets were only deserted for a few breaths, and then they returned to being lively.

The shouts were endless, and the cultivators had no intention of paying attention to the survival of a few demons; their main energy was focused on operating the newly opened shops.

Ren Qing hesitated for a few breaths and decided to explore the Bottomless Cave.

As a Yang God realm, his strength was already able to determine the life and death of tens of thousands of people in the City of Non-Action; no matter what, he had to figure out the situation first.

Moreover, the Primordial Transformation had not yet arrived, and Ren Qing was enough to walk sideways in the Residual Moon Layer.

He could only look at the Netherworld Skill when he returned, and it was another matter whether or not to consume lifespan.

He took a deep breath, and while using the technique, he tried his best to control his release and used the ability of the Disaster Elimination Law to erase the aura of the Yang God realm.

Then, in the stunned eyes of many cultivators.

Ren Qing's skin was covered with fine scales; it was the Box Dragon's Roar acting on himself, stimulating his shadowized physique.

He directly turned into a hundred-meter-long black dragon and drilled out of the barrier at the top of the City of Non-Action.

"Such divine power is truly incredible; where did this Yin Messenger realm come from?"

"Doesn't look like a newly advanced Yin Messenger realm..."

Under the discussion of the crowd, they quickly identified the black dragon as Ren Qing, who had the most diverse means, and the shock in their hearts increased instead of decreasing.

Ren Qing was known as the Lord of the Dream Market, and he was famous for his mysterious dream techniques; how could it be related to some kind of dragon transformation technique?

Song Zongwu sat cross-legged on top of the city wall.

He looked at Ren Qing's departing back and muttered to himself, "This is a divine power prototype? Shouldn't it be the Eyeless Law?"

Could it be that Ren Qing's most proficient technique was not the Eyeless Law?

It's really impossible to understand.
