The Secret Way of Immortality

Ren Qing's gaze first landed on the storyteller's mutated tree.

The storyteller had already completed his first transformation. To be on the safe side, he chose the mutation branch ability "Null Mind" at the time.

[Null Mind]: Those with a null mind are naturally resistant to soul possession and parasitism.

As for the other two mutation branches, they should assist the storyteller and reduce the drawbacks of Ren Qing's parasitism after using his techniques.

Ren Qing scanned the various mutation branches and found that many new buds had appeared on the mutated tree, and of course, some buds had disappeared.

This shows that the mutation branches are not fixed and will change with each completed mutation.

[Rebirth: As the time of parasitism accumulates, the host's body and soul will become more and more like the caster, eventually becoming indistinguishable.]

If Ren Qing chooses the Rebirth mutation, when he parasitizes someone, the host will gradually become a second version of himself.

It's a bit strange to think about, like wearing a similar layer of human skin.

[Birth: After parasitizing a female host, the caster will eventually be born after a thousand days of pregnancy.]

[Foster: When possessing a host, the caster can temporarily parasitize a strange object in the host, giving them some of the caster's cultivation.]

Birth seems to take the initiative, but in reality, it abandons the storyteller's greatest advantage, which is to hide in all things in an invisible form.

Moreover, if the strange object can affect the host, it might be able to create a similar effect.

However, from the mutation branches, it can be seen that the storyteller is even stranger than ordinary techniques, even a bit creepy to Ren Qing.

Ren Qing hesitated for a long time and finally decided on the "Foster" ability for the second mutation.

He bet that after completing the second mutation, the newly appeared mutation ability could cooperate with Foster to enrich the means of his techniques.

Besides, it's also good to enhance the survival ability of the possessed object.

If Ren Qing is seriously injured and possesses someone else to recover, then strengthening the host's strength is very necessary.

He continued to look at the mutated tree and soon noticed that many new buds had appeared at the top, all closely related to the Foster mutation.

[Twins: When possessing a host, the number of strange objects that the Foster mutation can parasitize in the host is increased.]

[Unnoticed: Strange objects will gradually cause body and soul mutation, but the host's subconscious will not suspect that there is a problem with themselves.]

These mutation branch abilities can barely be considered useful, but at the same time, they reveal a strangeness that makes it difficult for him to make a decision.

Ren Qing skipped over the mutation branches one by one, and then locked onto a certain bud.

[Seed Demon: When possessing a host, the parasitic strange object can be controlled to strengthen the host's body, but it will consume the host's lifespan.]

Among the storyteller's mutation branches, there are very few that can affect the host, so he immediately spent fifty years of lifespan to complete the Seed Demon mutation.

The storyteller's drawback is using people as prisons. If Ren Qing uses this technique, he may be trapped in the host's body.

A moment later, the storyteller's strange object had completed its transformation, reaching the third mutation, close to the Ghost Envoy Realm's completion.

Now only the Six Afflictions Art is left.

As for the Immortal in the Mirror, the mutation branches Ren Qing chose were mainly focused on concealment, in order to better exert the effect of the Disaster Relief Art.

The first mutation is called "Luster."

[Luster: The body can be transformed into a colorless and transparent glass body.]

Ren Qing tried to maintain the Luster body. When he was still, it was indeed very difficult to be noticed, and it was impossible to recognize it with the naked eye.

But it was only limited to the still state. Moving would make it more conspicuous, after all, changes in light would affect the Luster.

The Immortal in the Mirror's second mutation is called "Phantom Body."

[Phantom Body: Briefly create a phantom that is similar to the main body.]

The phantom clone formed by the Phantom Body mutation is not just similar, it is a "puppet" with flesh and bones.

However, even the flesh and bones are made of phantoms. Before dissipating, it can be lifelike.

And the phantom is almost exactly the same in terms of eyes and gestures, except that it cannot speak. Even shortly after death, it will twitch like a real corpse.

The final third mutation is "Illusion Reality."

[Illusion Reality: The phantom can use the Immortal in the Mirror, but cannot use mutation abilities.]

In this way, the Phantom Body mutation is very suitable for leaving the battle at a critical moment. Using it in battle can also be unexpected.

Of course, if everyone knows the effect of the Phantom Body mutation and is always on guard against the phantom, then the effect will inevitably be greatly reduced.

He is destined to not be able to show it on weekdays, and it may be a matter of life and death when it is used.

Ren Qing glanced at the information flow of the Disaster Relief Art and other techniques, and couldn't help but have more confidence in Jingzhou, which was about to undergo a drastic change.

In terms of life-saving ability, the other Yang God Realm cultivators combined are not as strong as him.

[Mutation: Hunger Resistance, Thirst Resistance, Kill Resistance, Null Mind, Foster, Seed Demon, Luster, Phantom Body, Illusion Reality]

………

Ren Qing stretched and took advantage of the free time during his retreat to pay attention to the movements of the Forbidden Soldiers Hall. He found that Li Tiangang was gathering manpower.

Even the war platform "Sand Boat" has been dispatched to Wuwei City.

I am afraid that they will go to the strange anomalies around the forbidden town in the near future.

Ren Qing is not worried about the Forbidden Soldiers Hall capsizing, after all, there are many Yin Messenger Realm cultivators in Wuwei City, and Song Zongwu, a Yang God Realm cultivator, is also in charge.

He suddenly had an idea.

Ren Qing thought for a moment, and then wrote a letter to Li Tiangang using a bird-like strange beast.

The main thing was to ask the Forbidden Soldiers Hall not to kill all the demon beasts while dealing with the strange anomalies, and to hand them over to him for disposal afterward.

Anyway, the Eternal Interrogation Prison needs a large number of creatures to fill it.

Since the demon cultivators were taken to the outside world, only the old, young, and some women are left in the various tribes. The resource exploitation formed by the prisoners has become a problem.

The output can only be said to be just enough for the daily consumption of the Demon Market. If a cultivator wants to buy in large quantities, it will be difficult to satisfy them.

Ren Qing is thinking about collecting some demon beasts. Even if they are wild and untamed, throwing them into the Eternal Interrogation Prison to mine for a few months will smooth out their edges.

Moreover, the demon beasts cannot make any waves in the stomach world. To put it bluntly, the demon energy in their bodies is simply a rootless source.

Leaving Jingzhou, they will soon turn into mortals.

Li Tiangang's reply was sent by a bird-like strange beast in half a day. The palm-sized white paper had four words written on it, "Too much trouble."

Ren Qing grinned. Li Tiangang's meaning was considered an agreement.

He put his mind at ease and continued to retreat. His gaze first landed on the mutated tree of Dao Dao Dao, planning to upgrade this Heavenly Dao technique first.

[Do you want to upgrade the Jar World Dojo? It will consume two hundred years of lifespan]

Ren Qing confirmed without hesitation.

Immediately afterward, the stomach world shook. The changes caused by the Jar World Dojo to the Eternal Interrogation Prison were much more intense than those of the Snail Dojo, and the area was expanding rapidly.

The Liquor Lake also became wider, even somewhat like a small inland sea.

Buzz buzz……

The Kunpeng excitedly spewed out a water column and jumped out of the lake. Its body, more than ten meters long, slammed heavily on the lake surface, splashing water.

The ghost ship staggered from the waves, and the bow suddenly became fierce, rushing towards the Kunpeng, which quickly sank to the bottom of the water.

The thatched huts built by the Kunpeng tribe around the Liquor Lake, they saw the lake water spreading and quickly packed their things to evacuate.

Liquor Lake Island is also expanding. For the Dream Market, it solves the problem of limited development and only has advantages and no disadvantages.

Ren Qing estimated that the transformation of the Eternal Interrogation Prison would still take some time, so he simply turned his attention to the Six Afflictions Art mutated tree in his mind and checked the many buds on the branches.

The ability of the Plague Lord is to spread diseases, but after being transformed into the secondary technique of the Dark Nightmare Lord, the types of diseases have changed.

From ordinary diseases targeting the body to dream diseases targeting the soul.

Of course, no matter what kind of disease the Plague Lord uses, it is actually formed by techniques, rather than creating germs like the Taisui Sutra.

That's why Ren Qing felt that the Taisui Sutra and the Six Afflictions Art complemented each other, but it was a pity that the Taisui Sutra would cause the body to turn into a corpse and had to be cultivated with the Corpse Sutra.

Ren Qing scanned the various mutations, and his expression became strange.

He found that the mutation branches of the Six Afflictions Art were nearly half less than those of ordinary techniques, and most of the abilities were related to dreams.

[Double Dream: Superimpose multiple nightmare diseases at the same time.]

[Seven Poisons: Use one's own seven spirits to conceive nightmare diseases, and use them to cast spells.]

[Three Poisons: Use one's own three souls to conceive diseases, and use them to cast spells.]

Seven Poisons and Three Poisons allow Ren Qing's three souls and seven spirits to become the medium for casting spells.

But thinking about it, it's better to forget it. If it were a split soul, it would be better. If the main soul is used to conceive diseases, there will be great troubles in the future.

Ren Qing chose the more conventional "Double Dream" for his first mutation.

The second mutation is "Long Dream."

[Long Dream: Increase the duration of nightmares and make it difficult for consciousness to escape. Only external contact can wake it up.]

As for the third mutation, Ren Qing saw a very special mutation branch, possibly influenced by the Eye-less Art and other dream techniques.

[Nightmare: Can absorb the pain emitted by nightmares and use it to strengthen oneself.]

The introduction of the Nightmare mutation is relatively vague, but Ren Qing still decided to use it to complete the mutation.

Ren Qing closed his eyes and felt the Plague Lord, but still couldn't figure out the effect of the Nightmare. Coincidentally, the transformation of the Eternal Interrogation Prison was completed at this time.

After being promoted to the Jar World Dojo, the area of the Eternal Interrogation Prison is equivalent to a swamp, and it has built a complete twenty-four solar terms.

Beginning of Spring, Rain Water, Awakening of Insects, Spring Equinox, Pure Brightness, Grain Rain, Beginning of Summer, Grain Full, Grain in Ear, Summer Solstice, Minor Heat, Major Heat, Beginning of Autumn, Limit of Heat, White Dew, Autumn Equinox, Cold Dew, Frost's Descent, Beginning of Winter, Minor Snow, Major Snow, Winter Solstice, Minor Cold, Major Cold.

The flow of time is also more than three times faster than the outside world.

However, the changes in the rules of the world by the Nascent Soul Stage Dao Dao Dao are only limited to this. If you want to play some骚operations, you have to wait for the Distraction Stage.

Ren Qing glanced at the Eternal Interrogation Prison and then found the Kunpeng and the ghost ship making noise in the Liquor Lake, planning to find a target to try the Nightmare.

The ghost ship is a strange fetus weapon. Although it has a weapon spirit, it has no consciousness.

The Kunpeng instinctively sensed the danger and fled to the bottom of the lake in a panic, but suddenly felt that the surroundings were plunged into endless darkness.

Ren Qing's phantom appeared in front of it and began to frighten it inhumanly.

After the Nightmare mutation absorbed the Kunpeng's fear, it gradually produced a unique Nightmare Demon aura, which finally poured into Ren Qing's Niwan Palace.

Ren Qing was slightly surprised.

He found that the Dream Seed had a bit of transformation after absorbing the Nightmare Demon aura.

The effect of the Nightmare mutation is actually to nourish dream magic weapons, then the Soul Butterfly is also possible, I wonder what will change.

There was a commotion in the city. Li Tiangang had already led the cultivators to the forbidden strange anomalies.
