Weird cultivation of immortality starts with possessing a mysterious book

On the tallest tower of the Taoist temple, Gu Xing met the scholar-looking dean and Qingyue with a cold expression.

Then he told them in detail what happened tonight.

"We have just solved the locust plague, and this 'friend' comes again. Could it be Yu Ruyun again?"

Gu Pingsheng immediately frowned and spoke in a bad tone.

He was extremely disgusted with Yu Ruyun. Whatever happened, he immediately thought of Yu Ruyun.

"Who knows?" Younu shrugged.

"Anyway, I've told you the story. It's up to you to decide whether to run away or not. I'm going to sleep."

"Wait……"

Before Gu Xing finished speaking, she slipped away, and he felt like crying without tears.

"At least take me away!"

He now deeply suspected that the purpose of Younu bringing him here was that she was too lazy to tell these things and let him come.

Just when Gu Xing felt a little embarrassed, Qingyue suddenly spoke.

"this is for you."

As she spoke, she handed over a jade pendant with dark spots that resembled insect wings.

"what is this?"

Gu Xing took it. He was not too wary of Qingyue, probably because he was too impressed by her naive appearance.

"I see that you are about to build a foundation. These are the wings of the Human-Faced Locust King, which can be used as the main material for building a foundation."

"The Locust King with a Human Face?"

Gu Xing's hand suddenly trembled and he almost dropped the thing to the ground.

The previous locust plague in Yucheng was composed of human-faced locusts, and the king of human-faced locusts was the king of human-faced locusts.

"This thing should have at least death level, right? Can I use it?"

Death-level weirdness probably requires a battle to cross the realm to deal with, and he is only in a small period of Qi training.

"It's okay. I've taken care of it. With your current foundation, you should be fine."

Qingyue said this, and Gu Xing put it away without hesitation.

His current foundation building is indeed missing one main material, and with the wings of this human-faced locust king, he can also start preparing for advancement.

Although he is only in the middle stage of Qi training, as long as there is enough gray mist, he can advance in the next moment.

And coincidentally, after several days of night patrol, there was quite a lot of gray-white fog on the mysterious book.

"If you have nothing to do, go back first." Qingyue said to him.

Gu Xing naturally would not refuse, and then he looked at Qingyue.

give me?

Without him having to say anything, Qingyue understood what he meant.

With just a wave of his hand, Gu Xing felt like the world was spinning and he felt like vomiting.

After a few breaths, the scene in front of him stopped, and he returned to his door.

Is this the means by which God comes?

The ability of this hand to transform people made Gu Xing jealous, thinking that he would have to learn it sooner or later.

But now, you still have to improve your cultivation level first.

……

"The city lord has issued an order to impose a curfew starting tonight!"

On the street, someone was riding a horse galloping.

When everyone heard this, they all panicked and ran towards their homes.

This is not because the people are very obedient, but because curfews often mean accidents in this world.

The last curfew was due to the arrival of the locust plague.

For a moment, the lights went out, and the huge Yucheng quickly fell into darkness.

But at this time, a young man on the street was a little worried, wondering whether he should violate the curfew.

He is Danyi, the youngest disciple of Xuanyi Guan.

At this time, in front, someone suddenly walked around, wearing armor, who was obviously the city guard.

Once he gritted his teeth, he finally chose to return to the Taoist temple.

Although it is difficult to disobey the teacher's orders, your own life is more important.

It’s better to go and deliver the oral message tomorrow!

……

Taoist temple.

The dean urgently summoned important figures in the Taoist temple and told them about the appearance of the "friend".

Hearing this, everyone was frightened and had different expressions.

"Dean, we have to run!"

The old ghost, the dean of the outer courtyard, said this with a serious face.

"How to run away? Are you abandoning the people?"

Bai Yutang has never dealt with him, but his rebuttal at this time was not out of personal feelings.

"So what do you want to do? Can you deal with 'friends'?"

The old ghost stood up and shouted at him.

At this time, the old ghost had deep fear on his face, and then he told a very secret thing.

"Once upon a time, I encountered a 'friend'."

"What?" Everyone was surprised.

"Quiet!" Gu Ping slapped the table out of fear, then motioned to the old ghost, "Say."

"That was three hundred and twenty-one years ago. I remember that time clearly. At that time, I was only in the Foundation Establishment realm."

"I was in Night City at that time."

"Ye City? Nothing big happened in Night City?" Someone interrupted.

"No, Night City was actually destroyed at that time. It was just that the current situation was turbulent and the borders of the Great Zhou Dynasty were unstable, so this matter was covered up."

"To be honest, looking back now, I don't know how to describe that scene."

"I only remember that the city lord, who was even more powerful than the dean now and only one step away from becoming a saint, smiled and extended his hand to me, wanting to 'make friends' with me."

"Can you understand that fear?"

"The whole city!"

"No one in the whole city was spared, and they all became 'friends'."

At the end, the old ghost even lost his composure and looked ferocious, really like an old ghost.

"Calm down!"

Gu Pingsheng came to him and held his shoulders.

"How did you escape in the first place?"

The old ghost looked at him and shook his head in despair.

"I didn't escape. I can be said to be dead at the time."

"However, I once accidentally swallowed a void insect. It kept me alive, but it also turned me into the ghost that I am now."

"If I am not careful for a moment, I will be assimilated into the void."

They knew about the problem with the old ghost, but they just didn't know why.

"Then what happened after you were 'friended' in the first place."

"I don't know. I couldn't resist at that time, and I couldn't even run away. It seemed like a force was controlling me to shake hands, and then I lost consciousness."

"And until I woke up, the whole city was deserted."

"I was very scared and ran away. Until now, I have never set foot in the Night City again."

"Is the method announced by Da Zhou to fight against his 'friends' fake?"

someone asked.

After venting the fear in his heart, the old ghost calmed down.

He sat on the chair for a while, covered his face, and then whispered.

"No, that's true."

"However, that method must be effective when the 'friend' first appears. After reaching a certain stage, even the power of the saint cannot destroy it."

"And now, no one can tell what stage the current 'friends' have reached."

"Even, maybe some of us are already 'friends'."

The old ghost's last words immediately caused everyone to fall into a new round of panic. They looked at the people around them warily and silently maintained a sufficient distance.

At this time, the old ghost spoke again.

"However, the scope of the 'Friend''s strangeness is limited, and it will basically not exceed the scope of a city."

"So, let's run away, Dean!"
