The Secret Way of Immortality
#172 - Reborn
It's impossible to know how many jailers the three-day Ghost Market could attract.
But looking into the distance, Ren Qing could see jailers arriving one after another.
A large number of jailers poured into the Ghost Market, heading straight for the Great Dream Pavilion, with some guarding the entrance of the Great Dream Forging.
Jailers who can master spells are definitely not fools.
The actions of the Jailer Hall indicated that the upcoming Ksitigarbha Soul Summoning was likely to be a near-death experience, which was why they were asked to prepare in advance.
Fortunately, a significant number of tasks had been released during this period, leaving the jailers with some spare money to selectively enhance their strength.
Some veteran jailers had already acquired skullcap artifacts.
They intentionally or unintentionally spread the news, making artifacts that resist soul attacks the first choice.
After purchasing materials from the Great Dream Pavilion, those jailers also gathered in front of the Great Dream Forging.
Including the reserves, there were at least a hundred people.
Ren Qing stood blankly at the entrance of the Ghost Market until Lu Xiaoyu patted him on the shoulder a few times, bringing him back to his senses.
Lu Xiaoyu greeted him with some bitterness, "Master Ren, it's been several days."
"You…"
Ren Qing turned his head and carefully sized her up.
He noticed a significant difference in Lu Xiaoyu's appearance. Her limbs were severely petrified, and green leaves were growing on her hair.
Ren Qing sighed and said, "It seems you've advanced to the Ghost Envoy Realm."
"Thanks to your…"
Lu Xiaoyu tactfully closed her mouth and continued helplessly, "I was granted official jailer status immediately after being promoted to the Ghost Envoy Realm, but I can't imagine the task I'll face next…"
Ren Qing understood what she meant. The tasks faced by the reserves and the Ghost Envoy Realm were worlds apart, and the possibility of death was naturally higher.
"Having strength is always a good thing."
"That's true."
Lu Xiaoyu nodded, her expression slightly relaxed.
Ren Qing then asked about Huang Ziwan and Lin Cheng.
Lu Xiaoyu had indeed encountered Lin Cheng some time ago. The external manifestations of his alienation had partially disappeared, and his aura was slightly restrained.
Huang Ziwan was probably still in seclusion and should be finished before the Ksitigarbha Soul Summoning.
After saying goodbye, Lu Xiaoyu turned and left the Ghost Market.
She had only come to thank Ren Qing after seeing his figure. In reality, she was still a little short on blood crystals for refining her artifact and had to take on tasks in the meantime.
There were quite a few jailers in the Jailer Hall in situations like Lu Xiaoyu's.
Ren Qing's main body entered the Great Dream Pavilion, while his separated soul came to the Great Dream Forging store.
Before the separated soul could push open the door, he suddenly felt a force acting on the shop, as if he had been divided into dozens of copies.
Ren Qing immediately realized that the Great Dream Master had made it possible for the shop to accommodate several people at the same time in order to better sell artifacts.
The corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
But the refining of artifacts took time. Even though Ren Qing had refined several skullcap artifacts in advance, it was only a drop in the bucket.
Ren Qing could only do his best. He first used the Gemini Nightmares to influence the counters in the store and put all the artifacts on display.
Then, the Ghost Shadow ventured into the Non-Action Dojo.
The Ghost Shadow lay on the ground, observing its surroundings. The area around the Tushita Palace was a mess, but fortunately, the Heavenly Dao Child was nowhere to be found.
Then, it stealthily swam towards the Fire Refining Palace, trying its best to avoid being noticed.
After the Ghost Shadow safely arrived at the Fire Refining Palace, Ren Qing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. At least he could continue to refine artifacts endlessly.
The Foundation Establishment Stage tombstone furnace was revived under the effect of You Yuan.
Ren Qing's separated soul opened the shop, chose to accommodate five people at the same time, and stipulated that they could only purchase one artifact.
These jailers unhesitatingly chose the skullcap artifacts, their expressions overjoyed.
Ren Qing collected all the materials he should have and then continued to put the materials into the tombstone furnace for refining, trying his best to shorten the time.
He quickly devoted his attention entirely to refining, and by the time he came back to his senses, seven or eight hours had passed.
Ren Qing's main body walked out of the Great Dream Pavilion and looked in the direction of the Great Dream Forging, only to find that there were no fewer people at the door, but more.
It was obvious that some jailers, after leaving the shop, turned around and waited outside.
It wasn't that they wanted to resell them. After all, even the boldest wouldn't dare to offend the Great Dream Master, but they felt that one artifact wasn't enough insurance.
Ren Qing rubbed his temples with a headache. At the current rate, even if he didn't rest for three days, it wouldn't be possible for every jailer to have a skullcap artifact.
Unless he could advance to the Golden Core Stage…
He subconsciously summoned the information flow and immediately gasped.
Unknowingly, his lifespan had actually reached seventy-nine years.
Ren Qing pondered for a moment. He realized that according to the lifespan he originally gained from each transaction, it was impossible to reach this level.
This meant that the Great Dream Master had deliberately added some lifespan for him, or perhaps he had given up the commission from the original transaction.
Ren Qing unhesitatingly had the Ghost Shadow return to the abdominal prison, and then began to advance.
The Golden Core Stage of the Heavenly Dao Method was equivalent to the Ghost Envoy Realm of the Jailer Method, and the difficulty shouldn't be high, except for the disadvantages that needed to be eliminated.
But after all, it involved the spiritual roots in Ren Qing's spine, so he had to be more cautious.
The Great Dream Forging was temporarily closed.
The main body took the separated soul away from the Ghost Market, planning to find a secluded place in the Abyss of Hell to avoid attracting the attention of the Yin Messenger Realm.
As for why he didn't go outside, it was mainly because the Jailer Hall was likely to be arranging matters related to the Other Shore Flower, so it was better to stay here.
Ren Qing walked along the way and found that Crane Mountain Town had been moved to the Abyss of Hell, and An'nan Town shouldn't be long either.
As for the location of the village where his mother was, it was still relatively safe.
He couldn't help but feel puzzled.
If Xiangxiang was destroyed, and he really had to take refuge in the Abyss of Hell, how would the problem of food be solved? Ksitigarbha hadn't mastered the Immortal Devouring Method, so it was impossible for plants to grow.
Ren Qing could only hope that the Jailer Hall had a complete solution.
He quickly found a narrow cave that no jailers would pass by. After crawling into it, he blocked the entrance.
[Do you want to advance the Yellow Spring Immortal Bone, which will consume seventy years of lifespan]
Seventy years of lifespan were drawn from Ren Qing's body. Before he felt weak, his spine had already begun to collide restlessly.
The latest novels are first published on Liu Jiu Shu Ba!
The Ghost Shadow rolled around in the abdominal prison. The Heavenly Dao Worm larva was frantically secreting You Yuan to wrap itself and form a chrysalis.
The Golden Core Stage was the key for the Heavenly Dao Worm larva to transform into an adult worm, and it was also known as the Immortal Stage in the Non-Action Daoist Temple.
After the Heavenly Dao Worm larva pupated, in order to ensure its own safety, it would strengthen the body of the cultivator to brew the so-called Immortal Bone.
However, for the cultivators of the Heavenly Dao Method, the Immortal Bone was only the beginning of transforming into a flesh and blood artifact.
But for Ren Qing, it was completely different. After the information flow exempted the cost, the Immortal Bone had some of the power of its literal meaning.
He couldn't help but cough violently, his face turning red.
No matter how Ren Qing suppressed it, the cough continued, even faintly stained with blood, and the itching in his throat intensified.
Cough!!!
Ren Qing felt like he had spat something out. He couldn't help but look at the palm of his hand, only to see a throat bone the size of a fingernail appearing in front of him.
He touched the position of his throat, and it seemed that new bones had grown. Could this be the Yellow Spring Immortal Bone? It shouldn't be…
Before Ren Qing could react, the itching spread downwards from his throat.
Pieces of bone were forcibly squeezed out of the flesh, even the ribs were the same. The Yellow Spring Immortal Bone replaced the old bones.
It could be seen that the rebirth of the Golden Core Stage was indeed a true "bone replacement".
Ren Qing was tormented enough. The most painful part was the skull, but fortunately, the Gemini Nightmares were aimed at the brain and could be protected by the separated soul.
By the time he regained consciousness, more than half an hour had passed.
Ren Qing closed his eyes and felt the wonder of the Yellow Spring Immortal Bone.
First of all, the most important thing about the Yellow Spring Immortal Bone was that it was more adaptable to You Yuan.
This was useless to him.
In the Non-Action Daoist Temple, the Yellow Spring Immortal Bone was naturally called one of the three great Immortal Bones of the Immortal Sect, as the direct line technique of the Netherworld Art.
The remaining two were the Profound Heaven Immortal Bone and the Thick Earth Immortal Bone.
Ren Qing considered that he might come into contact with the Heavenly Dao cultivators of Jingzhou in the future, so he had no intention of refining You Yuan at all.
Moreover, You Yuan was originally a product of the Heavenly Dao Worm.
He mainly valued the fact that the Yellow Spring Immortal Bone could make the Ghost Shadow possession more thorough, deepening it from the original flesh and blood to the bones.
The transformation of the Dragon Snake Spine was more flexible.
Ren Qing tried Ghost Shadow possession, and the external appearance didn't seem to change much.
But he felt that it wasn't the Ghost Shadow merging with himself, but himself merging with the Ghost Shadow, a state that seemed extremely wonderful.
Ren Qing moved around in the cave and found that his body was no longer limited to the human form and could hide in the shadows like the Ghost Shadow.
Even if he couldn't maintain it for a long time at the moment, his ability to save his life had greatly increased.
Ren Qing let the Ghost Shadow leave the bones. As long as the flesh on the surface was still in the original state of Ghost Shadow possession.
The Yellow Spring Immortal Bone probably needed to be explored for a period of time before it could be fully understood.
He then checked his lifespan and found that it had directly increased by a full one hundred and twenty years, with some remaining after completing two Weird Changes.
However, the lifespan required to advance to the Nascent Soul Stage had also become two hundred years, which showed how terrifying the cost that needed to be exempted was.
Ren Qing was not in a hurry to carry out the Weird Change, but left the cave and rushed back to the Ghost Market.
Since the Jailer Hall had set it up for three days, it meant that the Ksitigarbha Soul Summoning could not start in advance, and it was definitely more important to earn lifespan now.
After the Heavenly Dao Worm larva reached the Golden Core Stage, it should be able to control three tombstone furnaces at the same time.
Moreover, the speed of refining artifacts in the Golden Core Stage tombstone furnace would be at least one-third faster, and the efficiency would be greatly increased.
Ren Qing planned to complete the Gemini Nightmares' Weird Change after the demand for artifacts from the jailers decreased, and he thought he would have enough time.
In this way, the Great Dream Forging reopened after a short closure.
The jailers breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this.
In their eyes, even the Weird Infants used as soul-summoning materials were so terrifying, let alone the upcoming Ksitigarbha Soul Summoning.
And the Great Dream Forging was the source of life provided by the Jailer Hall.
Ren Qing didn't know that he had eliminated many troubles for the Jailer Hall. Originally, in Li Tiangang's plan, it would take at least a few days to suppress the rioting jailers.
Now that the jailers didn't cause chaos, how could those large and small gangs show their heads, so the towns in Xiangxiang still maintained their peace.
Therefore, even if Ren Qing's refining methods were slightly strange, they didn't cause any trouble.
Even Song Zongwu and other Yin Messenger Realm experts were aware of the Great Dream Forging.
