MTL - Cultivating Immortals: I Can Save the Price-Chapter 613 Is there really an extraterrestrial? (two in one)
Chapter 613 Is there really an extraterrestrial? (two in one)
The environment at the junction of the north and the south is very strange, even weird and inexplicable, and even wild animals will try to stay away as much as possible.
bang bang bang...
Heavy footsteps came from far to near, and the huge figure crossed the ridge.
A moment later, the corpse elephant emerged from the mountain, and the strong corpse aura emanating from its body caused the vegetation to wither.
Compared with hundreds of years ago, the signs of decay on the corpse elephant are almost invisible, and there is no feeling that the body and soul are about to collapse.
In addition, a thin layer of iron armor grows on the surface of the skin, which can not only prevent physical blows, but also prevent Yin Qi from leaking out.
"Listen, stop."
The ghoul touched the head of the corpse elephant, and the latter stopped immediately, staring blankly at the junction between the north and the south.
The corpse vein of the underworld spends far more energy on the corpse elephant than usual, and it is completely cultivated as a forbidden corpse, using a lot of resources.
The corpse elephant lived up to expectations. Although it originally had the cultivation base of the Heavenly Delusion Realm, its strength was actually not at the level of the Yang God Realm.
Following the corpse veins, the deceitful fetus method is applied to the flesh and bones of the corpse elephant. Even though the corpse elephant still cannot flexibly use the yin energy, its physical body is enough to crush the heavenly delusion, and it can be regarded as immortal.
The corpse elephant was named by Ren Qing as "Ting Ting".
"This **** place..."
The ghoul couldn't help muttering to himself, even though his internal organs were exhausted, he still had the illusion of a chill down his spine.
In the eyes of others, the underworld is already extremely eerie and terrifying, but compared to the border between the north and the south, it still pales in comparison.
I saw a round of purple-red sun hanging high in the north, exuding distorted and disordered light, like silk threads across the sky.
It was the first time for the ghoul to see the materialized light with the naked eye, and his eyes couldn't help but sink into the purple light, and he couldn't help being dazed for several hours.
The south is the normal sun, and the two suns hanging in the sky are like a pair of eyes.
The earth is also layered. The left side of the ghoul is shrouded in purple light. The vegetation inside is extremely lush, and fruits similar to flesh and blood organs are extended, wriggling from time to time.
The ordinary sun on the right is also full of deformed and terrifying monsters.
Two-headed guinea pig, three-legged toad, multi-eyed rabbit...
When the deformed beast is in the north, it can survive under the protection of purple light, but once it goes to the south, it will gradually lose its vitality and die.
As a result, the north-south junction is full of deformed beasts struggling to survive, and the bones are filled in the soil, nourishing scavenging insects, like a purgatory on earth.
The ghoul saw with his own eyes that wild geese flew into the range of purple light.
Not long after, a palace-shaped organ grew out of the back of the goose's head, just like blood vessels coming out of the body through meridians, and turned into stamens in a short while.
The ghoul has a vague guess. It is said that the south involves the moral god, which makes all things continue to circulate and multiply.
So, for reproduction.
The way creatures use their bodies to conceive offspring is indeed too inefficient.
Poof!
The house behind the goose's head blooms like a dandelion, and several baby birds that are waiting to be fed come out of it and fall to the ground.
In just a few breaths after the baby bird landed, its wings grew rapidly, and it immediately adapted to how to fly in the sky.
The young birds that do not fly are entangled in the branches of vegetation and become natural nutrients.
The corpse elephant shivered uncontrollably, and the crabman parasitic on the spine made a strange hissing sound, reminding him of the danger from the purple sun.
"According to the position given by the immortal, Mrs. Bone should be at the junction of the north and the south."
He carefully confirmed the task information, and then controlled the crabman to squirm, and the tail needle directly plunged into the spine interlayer of the corpse elephant.
The translucent tail of the crabman **** the corpse elephant like a needle, and a gray-black liquid is sucked into the body.
The corpse elephant paced slightly uncomfortably.
Immediately afterwards, the corpse elephant's body shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye, but the crabman remained unchanged until the corpse elephant completely disappeared.
The ghouls have reached the level of the heavenly realm under the inclination of the resources of the underworld.
Finally overwhelmed Taoist Mu Snake, don't worry about disasters in the underworld, although Taoist Mu Snake has no intention of chasing fame and fortune at all.
The ghoul restrained the Yin energy in his body, and walked quickly towards the destination.
Undead can stay in the range of purple light for a short time, but after a long time, some plant seeds will find ways to get into their bodies and take root and germinate under the action of purple light.
Plant seeds have no intelligence, but purple light makes everything weird.
Hundreds of years ago, the zombie monks took advantage of the strange rules of the north-south border to hide here unscrupulously.
The ghoul searched along the forest, and soon found a hole leading to the ground.
Holding the magic key to get in and out of the world in his stomach, he leaned over to get into the hole, and suddenly a strong yin energy came over his face.
The ghoul couldn't help but nodded slightly. Although the Yin Qi is not as good as the third floor of the underworld, it can be compared with the second floor of the underworld.
In addition to this, there is also a strange smell.
It's a bit like sea water with high salinity, with an extremely fishy smell, even ghouls who have lost their five senses can clearly smell it.
The strange smell emanates from the soil, and it should come from a deeper underground layer. Perhaps the underground river at the junction of the north and the south connects the ocean?
The ghoul continued to walk down, extremely tense.
The underground caves are full of various forks. If you go wrong, you may go to the north by mistake, and finally get lost in the radiation of purple light.
Fortunately, ghouls can find the right direction according to the intensity of Yin Qi.
After traveling for more than ten days, the narrow underground cave suddenly opened up, and densely packed coffins appeared in front of the corpse elephant.
A mouthful of coffins are placed in the cave in the form of a gathering of Yin arrays.
They also deliberately buried the corpses in the cave, thus forming the acquired yin veins, ensuring that the yin energy can always gather here.
The ghoul did not rush to open the coffin, but continued to search in the cave.
He found that there are more than a dozen caves connected to each other, and the number of coffins is more than 30,000, most of which exude the breath of ghosts.
"strangeness."
The ghoul is still a little confused, because no matter what Ren Qing told him, or his induction through the crab people, the number of undead should be far away from 100,000.
He came to the coffin that was closer to the hole, and inserted his nails into the gap in the cover.
As soon as the ghoul exerted force, the coffin was opened smoothly, revealing a strange-looking zombie, which made him gasp.
The flesh and blood on the zombie's body was shriveled, almost covered with skin and bones.
But the head is five times that of a normal person, causing the scalp to appear translucent, and the skull has many irregular protrusions on the surface due to the continuous proliferation of bone.
The ghoul's first reaction was as if the body was supplying nutrients to the head.
But zombies are the same as corpses, their growth and development have stopped, and they don't need to supplement food and water, and they can survive with Yin Qi.
"What the hell."
The ghoul put his palm on the forehead of the zombie, and his spiritual thoughts flooded into his Niwan Palace.
But the souls in Niwan Palace seemed extremely chaotic, crowded together like a mess, and there was a tendency to collapse at any time.
"No wonder the Immortal Venerable said that the undead at the junction of the north and the south may not be able to provide clues, and I am afraid that they are all about to die out of their wits."
The ghoul looked at the zombie with a smile on his face, and died without suffering any pain.
He closed the cover heavily, and checked the other coffins, but the results were the same, all of them were "big-headed corpses".
The ghoul picked some coffins and sent them to the world in the stomach to see if the corpse could find any useful clues, and then came to the end of the cave.
He dug it up in disbelief. Since it was said that there were 100,000 zombies, there was no way the number was wrong, and they might have been buried deeper.
After the ghouls were promoted to the Paradise Realm, their use of the Crabman went to a higher level.
With a slight movement of his mind, the crabman combined into a conical drill bit, pushed hard against the hard rock wall, and began to dig.
Gravel and soil are flying, and the stench in the air is even worse.
The ghoul simply closed its mouth and nose, temporarily giving up its sense of smell.
Theoretically, zombies don’t need the five senses, they don’t rely on sight, hearing, smell, taste, or touch.
But zombies have very few characteristics that belong to living people. If they even lose their five senses, they will probably become more and more like corpses.
This kind of obsession unique to zombie monks is called "death disaster".
The ghoul doesn't know how long he has been digging, he will occasionally release his sense of smell, and the stench he smells will become stronger every time.
He thought about bringing some zombie monks from the world in the stomach.
But the ghoul is currently in the state of the projection of the law, the sky and the earth, and is not afraid of life and death at all, but the zombies who come through the fairy key are not necessarily.
No accident, maybe I will meet Mrs. Bone next.
Even if Mrs. Bone has not yet become a fairy, her strength is not comparable to that of ordinary heaven and delusion.
KaKa…
The sound of the drill bit crushing the rock became sharper. The ghoul took a closer look and found a wall made of white bones in front of him.
The walls are made of compressed bones, and there are almost no traces of bones.
Seeing this, the ghoul took out the storage bag and put the bone meal into the mustard space. Buildings built with bone meal will emit yin energy on their own.
Bones are indeed very common in the underworld, but they will never be flooded.
The ghoul dug through a bone wall more than ten meters thick before reaching the central space. From the stench blowing towards his face, he could tell that the source of the strange smell mixed with soil was inside.
He put away the crabman, and the dust and smoke raised by the bone meal gradually dissipated.
The ghoul's pupils dilated, and he stood there with an incredulous expression. The fear in his eyes made him tremble uncontrollably.
"damn it…"
At this moment, the Crabman opened his mouth and spat out a palm-sized swimming fish from his stomach.
The swimming fish swung its tail, while the bones grew, the flesh and blood swelled, the scales also faded in an instant, and finally turned into a human form.
Ren Qing stretched his arms, his skin was black-gray unique to zombies, his fangs protruded, and his muscles appeared extremely refined.
Half of the skeleton is exposed to the skin, as if wearing a piece of armor.
After the Heavenly Demon Tribulation is promoted to the Earth Immortal, the split soul can choose a fairy body when descending, allowing the clone to temporarily inherit 100% of the power of a spell.
Ren Qing's celestial demon seizing the house this time is to choose the immortal position "Fengdu Corpse Emperor".
The ghoul retreated a few steps, and almost fell to his knees under the pressure of Ren Qing, until the yin energy in the corpse Fengdu subsided, and he felt better.
"Ghoul, if you want to return to the world in your stomach, get out immediately."
Ren Qing is four meters tall and only half a palm away from the top of the cave, so he intentionally shortened his body by half a meter and walked towards the darkness.
The ghoul hurriedly followed Ren Qing, and at the same time released the corpse turtle to guard the entrance and exit.
Ren Qing illuminated the dim space, and what came into view were glass jars, which actually contained fresh brains.
The number of brains should be around 100,000, and the volume is even larger than the zombie heads in the coffin. The overall color is gray and black, and Yin Qi is constantly pouring into the jar to nourish the brains.
Ren Qing touched his nose uncomfortably. The underground smell was indeed unpleasant.
It should be related to the quality of the water in which the brain is soaked. It is likely that high-concentration salt water was added to ensure that the brain will not rot.
The materials that Ren Qing can distinguish are at least the "corpse powder" that helps the absorption of yin energy, and the "sandalwood incense" that stabilizes the spirit.
The liquid in the tank can still be guaranteed to be crystal clear, which shows that the refining steps are cumbersome and all the materials are fully fused.
"They..."
The ghoul hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help interjecting: "Immortal Venerable, are they still alive?"
"kindness."
Ren Qing tapped the glass jar lightly with his fingers, and the brain inside obviously reacted instinctively, and the nerves in the minutiae shrank one after another.
"They're still thinking."
Ren Qing's words were not disturbing, and at the same time, he used the toe-off technique to sense that there were no three souls and seven souls in his brain, just an empty shell.
After hearing this, the ghoul couldn't help but fell into a daze.
It is not difficult to keep the corpse alive, but the organs of the zombie have no normal functions, it is a pool of dead meat, but the brain in the tank is maintained in a state of neither living nor dead.
"Why bother…"
Ren Qing didn't answer the ghoul's question, but cautiously used his soul to drill into his brain, and at the same time checked with the help of the information stream.
【Corpse Brain】
【Taken from the zombie body, it can hold a lot of Yin Qi. 】
The content of the information flow is mediocre, but Ren Qing knows what is absolutely hidden.
The fungus soul was attached to the brain of the corpse, and it was found that because the soul did not exist, the memory had long been lost, and it was just functioning in an inexplicable way.
"Dreaming?"
Although Ren Qing's toe-off technique did not detect the dream, the activity track of the corpse's brain is indeed very similar to that of ordinary people in sleep.
Ren Qing's main body casts the law of heaven and earth, and suddenly there are more figures beside the ghoul.
A moment later, two suspended heads appeared in front of the ghoul, and the aura of perfection in the Yangshen realm flashed past.
The ghoul quickly recognized the elder "Head in a Jar" of the Jail Hall.
The head in a jar no longer needs to hide in the jar, the head with white hair and beard is floating in the air, but the reflected shadow is slightly different, it is the villain in the bottle.
The current state of the two is not a fusion, but a parasitic relationship.
The reason why the head in the jar was unable to deal with the villain in the bottle was that it had been stuck in a bad situation before, and eventually faced the depletion of life energy.
Just when he died, the little talent in the bottle took the initiative to parasitize in the shadow, making the head in the pot smoothly promoted to the Yang God Realm.
After the head-in-a-pot solved the drawbacks of the technique, his cultivation has progressed by leaps and bounds.
He has the hope of breaking through the Paradoxical Realm, provided that the villain in the bottle will not rebel.
"Hey Hey…"
After seeing the brains in the glass jars, the villain in the bottle let out a strange smile of excitement, and grabbed part of his body towards the jars.
"Ahem."
Ren Qing coughed, and the villain in the bottle immediately became honest, and retracted into the shadow again.
Head in a Jar was about to say something, but was attracted by bottles of corpse brains, so he couldn't help but move closer to him and take a closer look.
"Little man in a bottle, help me see if there is any difference between these brains."
The head in the jar called a few times, but the villain in the bottle didn't dare to come out at all, curled up in the shadow, motionless.
Ren Qing smiled helplessly, turned to the ghoul and said, "Let's go and see Mrs. Bone, I don't know what's going on."
"Huh? Madam Bone is here?"
Ren Qing came to the bone wall on the other side, stroked it lightly with his hand, and the whole wall suddenly disappeared, revealing a deep passage.
The walls of the passage are full of marks left by claws, which were obviously excavated by Mrs. Bone, so the method is relatively rough.
After Ren Qing and the others left, the shadow of the head in the bottle emerged.
The villain in the bottle skipped the corpse brains one by one, and then separated part of the body, and classified each corpse brain in detail.
It can be said that Ren Qing's understanding of the brain is not as familiar as the villain in a bottle.
After all, the food of the villain in the bottle is the evil thoughts inadvertently produced by the human brain. There was a prisoner in prison back then, and the torture he endured every day was acting on his brain.
Ren Qing followed the passage for tens of miles, and at the end was a hastily dug cave.
What came into view were hundreds of meat **** hanging upside down, with endless wailing, and in the center was Mrs. Bone sitting cross-legged.
The appearance of Mrs. Bones is very strange. Under the skin and flesh attached to the skeleton, it can be seen that it is completely filled with thick fat.
"I want to become a fairy...I want to become a fairy..."
Madam Bone murmured unconsciously, reached out and grabbed the meatball and stuffed it into her mouth.
During the process of digesting the meat mass, the fat layer of her body is still accumulating, causing milky white oil to ooze out from the surface of the skin.
"What's this?"
The ghoul pointed at the mass of flesh, and could barely notice its deformed facial features. The internal organs and bones were all distorted, but the brain was still intact.
"people."
Ren Qing should not be too familiar with meat balls. After a long period of reproduction, mortals in Taohuayuan will take on this terrifying appearance.
The north-south junction is actually not far from the Peach Blossom Spring. If the undead want to go there, they can still do it with their physique.
Ren Qing doesn't have much eyeliner in Taohuayuan. Even if he can come to the statue at any time, it doesn't mean he can always keep an eye on Taohuayuan.
He stared at Mrs. Bone, and found that the fairy seat of the giant ghost king had been transferred to the brain, and his body was on the verge of collapse.
Ren Qing suddenly seemed to realize something, and said to the ghoul, "Stay here and watch Mrs. Bone, I will go back as soon as I go."
"Obey, Immortal."
Immediately, Ren Qing's avatar walked into the door leading to the world in the stomach.
The ghoul agreed very quickly, but facing Mrs. Bone alone, it was somewhat hypocritical, especially when the situation was a little strange and inexplicable.
He leaned against the rock wall, and from time to time in the passage came the strange laughter of the villain in the bottle, and the murmur of "I want to become a fairy" by Mrs. Bone.
The ghoul thought that Ren Qing would return soon, but he didn't expect to wait for several months.
If it weren't for the constant voices from the villain in the bottle, his mood would definitely be affected. Fortunately, Ren Qingshan came late half a year later.
When Ren Qing returned to the cave, he held a seriously alienated townsman from Sishan in his hand.
The townspeople's legs have been replaced by tentacles, their skin is full of pits and grooves, and the exposed spine is more than ten meters long.
During this period, Mrs. Bone has swallowed half of the meat ball in the hole, and the skin is stretched by the new fat, and the whole is like a ball.
Ren Qing took off a meatball and threw it to the ghoul.
The ghoul caught it in a hurry, and followed Ren Qing to the cave where the brain was stored again. The head in the jar seemed to be waiting for a lot.
One hundred thousand corpse brains were divided into two categories and placed neatly on the ground.
After noticing Ren Qing, the head in a jar quickly asked, "Ren Qing, where did these brains come from, and where is the soul inside?"
The ghoul interjected in astonishment: "What soul?"
The head in the jar patiently explained: "Their souls are likely to still exist, and it is because of the activity of the soul that it affects the brain in disguise."
"Look, there are 20,000 brains that are no longer active, indicating that the soul is damaged."
"These days, the brain is either weak or excited, but there are actually rules to follow, if I'm not wrong..."
The head in the jar hesitated to speak, perhaps feeling that his guess was unreliable.
"Senior said."
Ren Qing's expression was extremely calm, obviously already expected.
The head in the jar said hesitantly: "It's a bit like climbing the fairy ladder in the Yangshen realm. When facing the heaven, the soul of the monk will disappear inexplicably, but the body still has a sense."
"The Way of Heaven!"
The ghoul does not practice the Jailer method, and has never experienced climbing the fairy ladder. Now he suddenly realized that the situation is indeed very similar.
The two looked at Ren Qing, who nodded in approval.
"Don't you know if you try it?"
Ren Qing signaled the ghoul to put down the two people who were seriously alienated, and then took out a bottle of foul-smelling liquid.
The head in the jar exclaimed: "Ren Qing, you actually reproduced it?"
"The liquid that stores the brains not only ensures the freshness of the organs, but also exacerbates alienation. Let's see what happens in the end."
Ren Qing soaked the two of them in the water, and to their degree of alienation, they had already lost their intelligence and could be regarded as strange things.
The residents of Sishan town are because of the magic circle, even if their bodies and souls are alienated, their brains still remain the same.
Because of the purple light emitted by the mother of all things, the mortals in Peach Blossom Land have no change in their brains no matter how deformed their bodies are due to reproduction.
Ren Qing suspects that the six gathering places in this world should be similar to all mortals.
Under the stimulation of alienation, mortals show different directions of alienation. In Taohuayuan, the fat layer is thickened, and in Simen Town, the spine is elongated.
Ren Qing and the others stared unblinkingly, and the Taohuayuan people first changed.
When the fat breaks the skin, the fat does not overflow as usual, but gradually dissipates in the form of smoke.
The soul of the Taohuayuan person disappeared immediately, exactly the same as when climbing the fairy ladder.
The smoke and dust has no roots and no source, Ren Qing didn't find any clues, as if it was connected to another world.
In the end, a complete brain is left alone.
Lacking the protection of liquid, the brain shrank immediately, and the traces left by the Taohuayuan people in this world completely disappeared.
In just half a day, the spines of Simen townspeople exceeded twenty meters, and the end of the spines was shrouded in mist. Flesh and bones climbed up the spines into the mist, leaving behind a brain soon.
"It shouldn't be facing the way of heaven..."
Ren Qingyou is concerned about the promotion of the monks in the Jail Hall to the Immortal Ladder, and the space where the Three Dao Patriarchs are kept has remained the same, except for the moral Tianzun with one less head.
But the "world" that the body and soul go to is very likely created by the ancestors of the Three Dao, otherwise how could it be in the way of climbing the fairy ladder.
The undead at the junction of the north and the south probably discovered the law hundreds of years ago. They ascended with the help of the Taohuayuan people, but they were afraid that there would be no life, so they specially preserved their brains.
The zombie in the coffin should be a test subject for Ascension.
