The Secret Way of Immortality
#426 - Zombie Enlightenment
Bang!
The giant white bone rock was pushed back into its original position, blocking out the darkness.
“Damn it, damn it, a bunch of blockheads, damn them all…”
The cave was shrouded in dim light, the source of which turned out to be fungi growing in the cracks of the rocks, emitting a faint fluorescence.
The cat-man mummy with heads growing on its chest scanned the scavengers with resentment, its whole body swollen and pale.
He was specifically guarding the entrance of the cave, and no matter how angry he was, he didn't dare to attack, so he had to pull out a scavenger's skull and chew on it.
The cat-man mummy's clothing was somewhat similar to that of a yamen runner from Jingzhou, but more dilapidated, covered with traces of dried blood.
Ren Qing mixed into the cart, using Ghost Shadow to silently approach the cat-man mummy.
Information flowed.
【Li Yiliang】
【Age: Nine hundred and eighty-six】
【Lifespan: None】
【Technique: Corpse Refinement Method (White Corpse)】
Ren Qing raised an eyebrow. Judging from Li Yiliang's aura, the latter was equivalent to a Ghost Envoy realm of the Forbidden Prison Law, but even more extreme.
He realized that the Corpse Refinement Method worked entirely on the body, refining the corpse being equivalent to refining the body.
There was not a trace of decay on Li Yiliang's body. His skin and flesh seemed swollen and pale, but in reality, it was difficult for sharp weapons to break through his defense.
Ren Qing left a wisp of Ghost Shadow in the surrounding shadows to determine the entrance and exit.
Predictably, the cave here must be interconnected in all directions, and there might be thousands of various types of zombies living in it.
Moreover, there seemed to be something that zombies feared in the darkness, which was why Li Yiliang was furious about the scavengers returning late.
“Get lost.”
Li Yiliang spat out the bone fragments in his mouth, then waved his hand impatiently, signaling the scavengers to stay away from him.
The scavengers had no intelligence to begin with, so naturally they would not have negative emotions, and pulled the cart towards the depths of the earth in a rigid manner.
Li Yiliang then sat cross-legged next to the white bone boulder, and soon closed his eyes and remained motionless, like a corpse that had just died.
The cart gradually moved away, but the noise it made continued to echo.
The fluorescent fungi in the cave seemed to emit light as soon as they heard any movement, as if warning something.
Ren Qing initially thought he would encounter many intelligent zombies, but he didn't expect that after traveling for two or three hours, there would be no waves.
The cave was no different from the entrance and exit, except that it was more spacious.
Ren Qing noticed traces of cart tracks not far away, indicating that the route of the previous group of scavengers was the same as his.
He couldn't help but yawn, and studied zombies in his spare time.
Compared to the extremely unstable corpse transformation, zombies seemed to be fixed in a certain state, so they were not affected by the forbidden area for the dead.
Ren Qing raised his hand and looked at his shriveled skin. If he could solve the drawbacks of corpse transformation, could he use it to obtain eternal life?
Sigh…
He sighed deeply.
It seems that he must figure out whether zombification can coexist with the Forbidden Prison Law, otherwise all his efforts will be in vain.
As long as the Corpse Refinement Method does not affect the Forbidden Prison Law, if it is useless after mastering it, he will directly peel it off and use it as a jailer.
Ren Qing closed his eyes and meditated, while checking the situation inside the giant corpse Buddha.
The Forbidden Prison Hall's nourishment of the various deformed organs is mediocre, mainly focusing on the development of the intestines and stomach, after all, it is a shelter.
But the world in the stomach is a bit chaotic.
The arrival of the Ice Age caused the temperature to plummet to below zero, and even the light emitted by the Firewood Sun seemed unusually cold.
Even with the remnant souls of reincarnation, the flora and fauna still suffered heavy casualties in adapting to the environment.
The various demon tribes couldn't help but focus their energy on how to store food for a long time, and the frequency of going to Dream City for trade was significantly reduced.
The Heavens even gave up planting food, and Tang Seng simply organized a caravan specifically for exchanging food in Dream City.
After all, the Cishi people are located in the valley, and the fertile fields are on the mountainside. In the howling of the biting cold wind, there is no possibility of survival.
Not to mention corpse transformation, the Ice Age alone is enough to stagnate the development of the world in the stomach just by reducing fertility.
However, the wine sea is full of vitality.
The wine fish thrown into the ocean in those years have reproduced into dozens of species, and there are even several whale species with a body length of seven or eight meters.
Over time, Ren Qing's wine sea in his stomach will have a complex ecology.
The Rebirth Yellow Springs is strengthened by absorbing the life and death of flora and fauna. It is obviously impossible to count on the land, so it can only rely on the wine sea.
Ren Qing invested a large number of remnant souls of reincarnation into it to accelerate the reproduction of fish.
Just as he was distracted by the world in his stomach, the scavengers unknowingly came to the depths of the ground, and the surroundings were finally no longer the same unchanging rocks.
Only to see huge bones revealed in the rocks, and the red stone walls, no matter how you look at it, give people the illusion that they were once flesh and blood.
Ren Qing suspected that this place was once a behemoth.
After breaking free from the shackles of the white bone sand, the behemoth came to the hinterland of the forbidden area for the dead, but died completely after not too long.
The corpse was swallowed by the earth, and eventually merged with the rocks in the ground.
The zombies living here should be the creatures in the behemoth's body, and later gradually formed an alternative civilization.
I wonder if they still have the idea of searching for the “door”?
Ren Qing looked at the top of his head. Although the naked eye could not detect the existence of the Nameless Weird, he knew that the latter was above him.
Could the path to the door in the Nameless Weird's body be the same as the one in the forbidden area for the dead?
He resisted the idea of opening the door. He came to the forbidden area for the dead not to explore ***. Once he obtained the Dead Man Sutra, he would leave immediately.
Just as Ren Qing was in a daze, the scavengers had arrived at their destination.
It was a huge karst cave, filled with disgusting stench, which even Ren Qing's almost decorative nose could smell.
Immediately afterwards, Ren Qing noticed a large number of footprints on the ground, it was obvious that the zombies had formed a certain scale.
The scavengers' speed slowed down slightly, as if stepping into this place made them extremely uneasy, far from being comparable to facing Li Yiliang.
Seeing this, Ren Qing directly flipped out of the cart and chose to follow in the dark.
He was confident that even the Heavenly Weird realm would not notice his figure protected by various spells, as long as they didn't get close.
It's a pity that the Disaster Elimination Law has not reached the Yang God realm. According to the foundation Ren Qing wants to lay, he needs at least five main and secondary spells.
He decided that if he encountered an unmanageable crisis, he would simply find two barely suitable spells and promote the Disaster Elimination Law first.
The ⊥ Newest ⊥ Small ⊥ Say ⊥ Is ⊥ At ⊥ Six ⊥ 9 ⊥⊥ Book ⊥⊥ Bar ⊥⊥ First ⊥ Send!
Ren Qing carefully followed the scavengers and continued on for most of an hour.
Although it was still desolate, at least he could find some skeletons in the corners, as well as traces of rodent activity.
A moment later, Ren Qing finally saw a tent similar to a yurt in the distance.
The outside of the tent was full of coffins of all sizes, as many as dozens or hundreds, and the source of the corpse odor was emitted from them.
A fat zombie stood in the open space, holding a bronze bell in his hand, but no sound could be heard when he shook it.
The zombie's appearance was similar to that of Li Yiliang, but more swollen, and even his pores would occasionally ooze water.
He stared greedily at the corpses of the three cocoon people, constantly making strange laughter, accompanied by neurotic self-talk.
“Good luck is unstoppable, it's the first time I've seen such complete cocoon people, I think the chances of transforming into a purple zombie will be higher.”
The fat zombie opened the three coffins and placed the cocoon people in them.
Then he took out a hairless talisman brush from his arms, spat a mouthful of black blood on it, and drew runes on the surface of the coffin.
Seeing this, Ren Qing moved closer and closer, and soon came to the fat zombie's side.
He observed the details of the runes, which were somewhat similar to moon patterns, but the structure was undoubtedly simpler, and the purpose was to help the corpse gather yin energy.
Ren Qing glanced at the fat zombie, who was wearing a tattered Taoist robe, with a rusty copper coin sword on his waist, and only the bell magic weapon was relatively complete, but it still couldn't catch his eye.
He thought that the zombie controlling the scavengers would be at least in the Yin Messenger realm.
【Zhu Dashuang】
【Age: Eight hundred and thirty-three】
【Lifespan: None】
【Technique: Corpse Refinement Method (White Corpse)】
After Zhu Dashuang, the fat zombie, settled the cocoon people, he found that there was no coffin to place the scavengers, and his face couldn't help showing some disgust.
He reached out and peeled off the skin of a scavenger, swallowed it whole, and its flesh and bones immediately dissolved into mud.
Ren Qing watched Zhu Dashuang's actions, and the latter's cultivation base had a slight increase.
However, looking at the way the other party felt pain, it was obvious that he lacked coffins to do so.
“By the way, do you have any books recording the Corpse Refinement Method?”
Ren Qing was already standing in front of Zhu Dashuang, but he was not noticed until he spoke, which shows the horror of the Disaster Elimination Law.
“You are…”
Zhu Dashuang opened his mouth wide. Anyone who suddenly saw a shriveled and withered figure in their field of vision would be frightened enough.
“Forget it, I'll do it myself.”
Ren Qing reached out and patted Zhu Dashuang's stiff shoulder, and said in a strange tone: “You should have fatty liver, right?”
Oily liver disease surged into Zhu Dashuang's body, and then under the linkage of the diseased tree, his consciousness was directly pulled to Dream City in the world in his stomach.
Before long, Ren Qing easily obtained Zhu Dashuang's memory.
The soul of the white zombie is only slightly stronger than that of a mortal. For Ren Qing, it is basically undefended and takes no effort at all.
First of all, Zhu Dashuang is just an ordinary corpse raiser, who also belongs to the yamen.
Of course, from the pictures Ren Qing saw in Zhu Dashuang's memory, the so-called yamen is very bloated and deformed.
It's more like a sect with questionable purpose.
Because corpse raisers have to graze pseudo-zombies, they usually operate in the more peripheral areas and rarely contact others on weekdays.
It seems that in Zhu Dashuang's consciousness, the law of life is to raise corpses, until a purple zombie is born among the pseudo-zombies, and then bring it to the yamen for processing.
Zhu Dashuang has a total of one hundred and three pseudo-zombies, which is indeed a lot, but the chance of being promoted to a half-corpse realm purple zombie is less than one in a hundred.
Ren Qing sealed Zhu Dashuang in the depths of the world in his stomach, then changed into the same costume and transformed himself into a corpse raiser.
With the Disaster Elimination Law, no one can identify the truth, and Zhu Dashuang doesn't know many zombies, they are few and far between.
As for the Corpse Refinement Method, he doesn't even need to search in Zhu Dashuang's memory, there is a copy in the tent.
Ren Qing read the contents of the Corpse Refinement Method, his eyes swept over the coffins, isn't this the material for testing the compatibility of the Forbidden Prison Law?
