The Secret Way of Immortality
#180 - Ksitigarbha's Brain Tree
Bang!!
The prison guard was reduced to fragmented limbs, his corpse corroded into a pile of filth.
The newly born eerie entity didn't even get a chance to struggle before being absorbed by the active Avici Hell, becoming nourishment for the vast space.
Influenced by the demonic aura, the crowd looked at the Black Goat with horror, instinctively wanting to stay away.
Li Bai turned his head and said in a deep voice, "Jian Ping, what did he say to you before he died?"
The prison guard named Jian Ping shook his head blankly, stumbling backward as he shouted, "I…I…I don't know!"
Jian Ping noticed the prison guards' surprised gazes and couldn't help but touch his cheek.
Only then did he realize that he was covered in black fur, with cow and goat horns sprouting from his head.
Jian Ping panicked and walked towards the edge of the altar, only to follow in the footsteps of the previous guard.
His death was slightly different, his flesh corroding until he became a puddle of pus.
A foul stench filled the air.
The prison guards immediately felt a sense of retreat, unable to resist the urge to leave the altar.
Only Ren Qing knew that it wasn't the Black Goat's doing; most likely, a Pseudo-Soul had infiltrated the crowd, preparing to assassinate them one by one.
Its intelligence was much higher than the Black Goat's.
But thankfully, the altar was guarded by two Yin-Yang Realm cultivators, so the Pseudo-Soul was definitely suppressed, otherwise, they wouldn't be able to handle it.
"What's going on?!"
Li Bai's face was gloomy, witnessing the successive deaths, his expression twisted, and he grabbed the prison guard beside him.
He knew beforehand that the mission was extremely dangerous, but he never imagined it would be so terrifying, with even death being so inexplicable.
Bang!!
Another prison guard turned into filth.
They would reach the Nether Feather Land soon, but at this rate, no one would survive.
Lin Cheng couldn't help but take a few steps back.
His breathing became heavier and heavier, and just as he was gradually approaching the edge of the altar, Ren Qing grabbed him.
Ren Qing said, "If you want to live, calm down."
The prison guards looked at Ren Qing in unison, and the latter continued, "A soul has already been summoned, at least the Expelling Filth Soul is among us."
Everyone's expression turned solemn upon hearing this.
The so-called Expelling Filth Soul, among the Three Souls and Seven Spirits, governs the excretion of filth, which was indeed related to the prison guards' deaths.
If someone else said such alarmist words, they might not believe it, but this was Ren Qing after all.
Li Bai nodded and asked, "What do we do?"
"Do you remember how many of us there are?"
"You mean…"
Ren Qing didn't wait for the others to reply, and the Ghost Shadow covered every corner of the altar, plunging the surroundings into silence.
Only the sound of heartbeats could be heard.
After a long time, a scream suddenly rang out.
The Ghost Shadow then dissipated, and the surroundings regained their brightness.
The prison guards couldn't help but look around, then their eyes locked on Ren Qing's hand, which was holding a beating, pitch-black heart.
But looking at the number of prison guards, there was no decrease at all.
Ren Qing wiped away the wound on his wrist and patted Lin Cheng's shoulder.
Lin Cheng noticed blankly that there was a hole in his chest.
He tried to reach for his heart, but then collapsed powerlessly to the ground, convulsing.
The prison guards were all stunned, because Lin Cheng was not made of souls, but clearly had flesh and blood, so how could he be related?
Ren Qing's pupils rotated, observing the expressions of everyone on the altar, and the Ghost Shadow had already begun to act.
Then he crushed the heart, black water splashed everywhere, and Lin Cheng's body continued to convulse, gradually turning into filth.
Ren Qing's actions were like killing someone for a nonexistent reason.
Li Bai quickly said, "Where is the Expelling Filth Soul? You better have an explanation."
He wanted to mobilize the prison guards to put pressure on Ren Qing, but found that no one paid attention to him, all of them carrying a bit of fear.
Li Bai's face turned livid.
Ren Qing didn't reply, the alien mouth in his palm opened, and Lin Cheng rolled out, it turned out that just now was just a semi-real illusion.
His previous actions were all to interfere with the Pseudo-Soul, after all, as long as there was intelligence, there would inevitably be flaws.
At this moment, a prison guard in the corner of the crowd took half a step back subconsciously, and then chains shot out directly towards him, binding him at lightning speed.
Before the chains could even touch him, the prison guard instantly exploded into rotten mud, but the mud could not leave the altar.
An invisible film blocked the mud.
It could be seen that since some unknown time, the Expelling Filth Soul had taken advantage of the Black Goat's interference to hide in the crowd of prison guards.
The Expelling Filth Soul disappeared again, without even a trace of its aura being detected.
Li Bai signaled the prison guards to attack, and all kinds of spells covered the arena, but they had no effect at all, and the Expelling Filth Soul still did not show itself.
No matter how unwilling he was, he could only turn to Ren Qing for help.
"Ren Qing, do you have any means to force out the Expelling Filth Soul, otherwise we won't be able to defend against it at all."
Ren Qing smiled and pointed to the corner of Li Bai's clothes, saying, "I see some filth here."
"Huh?"
While Li Bai was stunned, Ren Qing used his fingernail to cut his wrist, and as the Ghost Shadow transferred the injury, that bit of filth shattered into dust.
It was a pity that he still failed to catch the Expelling Filth Soul's trail, as if the other party was invisible and intangible.
It seemed that relying on the Ghost Substitute was not realistic.
Most importantly, Pseudo-Souls in Avici Hell could not be killed, which made Ren Qing feel a slight headache.
Li Bai was a little embarrassed.
He wanted to say something, but heard Ren Qing mutter to himself.
"The Expelling Filth Soul seems to attach itself to people who are afraid, indirectly killing them by taking advantage of their actions to leave the altar."
Ren Qing nodded silently.
Just when everyone hadn't reacted, his brow opened, and the pupil transformed from the Heavenly Demon Dream Seed, silently using Dream Inception on Li Bai's body.
Ren Qing still didn't apply the Heavenly Demon aura, but that alone was enough.
Li Bai was stunned, as if countless fearful memories flooded his mind, and the image of the man in front of him became more and more distorted.
Black water formed a catfish, forcibly drilling into his body from his mouth and nose.
However, in the eyes of the many prison guards, nothing happened at all, which showed that the Expelling Filth Soul could not be seen with the naked eye at all.
Ren Qing's index finger tapped Li Bai's brow, and the latter closed his eyes and slumped to the ground, soon snoring.
The newest novels are first published on Liǔ.9.Shū.Bā.com!
It would be a little troublesome to expel the Expelling Filth Soul from his body, so he simply had the Ghost Shadow turn into nothingness to directly check every inch of his flesh and blood.
Jiang Feng swallowed.
He watched Ren Qing's shadow cover Li Bai's body, and the latter unconsciously let out painful cries, couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead.
Lin Cheng and others had already seen the Ghost Shadow, so they weren't surprised.
The Ghost Shadow quickly found the Expelling Filth Soul in Li Bai's body, but Ren Qing always felt that there was still a Pseudo-Soul present.
He signaled the Ghost Shadow to briefly swallow the Expelling Filth Soul, while constantly scanning his surroundings, finally landing on Li Tiangang.
Ren Qing patted his head.
Why consider so much? The Pseudo-Soul clearly wanted to escape, in fact, as long as he ensured that Li Tiangang wasn't disturbed, it would be fine.
Ren Qing opened the Heavenly Demon Eye again, but this time it was used on everyone.
Even Li Bai was caught off guard and couldn't resist the power of Dream Inception, let alone Jiang Feng and other prison guards with poor soul defenses.
Dozens of people fell to the ground, and then were pulled into the abdominal prison by the Dragon-Snake Spine.
The Ghost Shadow had also sealed the Expelling Filth Soul, but even with Li Tiangang's suppression, it still seemed a bit reluctant.
Ren Qing sat cross-legged next to Li Tiangang, no longer looking for any Pseudo-Souls, quietly waiting for the altar to go to the Nether Feather Land.
At this time, a drastic change occurred in Avici Hell.
The Corpse Dog Soul suddenly stopped speaking, and there was clearly a lot of movement coming from the prison area, indicating that the prison guards were already trying to attack.
Bang!!
The rope knot cave was knocked open by a huge object, and a ten-meter-tall human-faced dog rushed out, its target being the most populous Sanxiang City.
Before it could go far, more than thirty prison guards tacitly controlled the Corpse Dog Soul, and its mouth was wrapped in countless vines.
Mu Yi was on the back of the Corpse Dog Soul, his spells being used to the extreme.
And the Yin-Yang Realm cultivator sitting in the Corpse Dog Soul was the head in the jar from the Secret Pavilion, he directly chose to grow on its skin and flesh.
The Non-Toxic Soul was no better off, facing two Yin-Yang Realm cultivators, even if its strength had improved, it still seemed extremely embarrassed.
The Water Gourd used waves of water to roll up the Non-Toxic Soul, heading towards the stomach wall.
The Little Man in the Bottle didn't show up, he didn't participate in the Ksitigarbha Soul Summoning at all, he should be maintaining the severely damaged Stomach-within-Stomach.
Ren Qing was slightly worried.
There were only seven or eight prison guards behind the Water Gourd, and Huang Ziwan's figure was not seen.
Just as Ren Qing's gaze was focused on the distance, the black mud on the altar suddenly rolled up, heading towards Li Tiangang.
A narrow human-faced centipede crawled out from it.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time."
The purpose of the Fushi Soul is to decompose its own toxins, and it also represents the essence of energy.
Ren Qing groaned, and wounds suddenly burst open all over his body, dozens of Dragon-Snake Spines drilled out, directly binding the Fushi Soul.
The Fushi Soul struggled frantically, and the Dragon-Snake Spines made cracking sounds.
Even with the suppression of two Yin-Yang Realm cultivators, it still seemed a bit reluctant for Ren Qing to suppress two Pseudo-Souls alone.
But fortunately, the stomach wall was already close at hand.
Song Zongwu carried the altar into the wound of Avici Hell.
It should have been going to the outside world, but the flesh and blood plain came into Ren Qing's eyes, the stench filled the air, and there were figures of various eerie objects.
"Go!"
Song Zongwu threw the altar upwards with force, and then a sharp bird cry sounded.
The Mortise flew over in the blink of an eye, and its size swelled against the wind, its giant claws grabbed the altar and went deep into the flesh and blood plain.
Song Zongwu took a simple run-up and jumped directly onto the altar.
He subdued the Fushi Soul with a few punches, and then found that there were no other prison guards.
Before Ren Qing could open his mouth, he smiled embarrassedly and released dozens of people from the abdominal prison, then canceled Dream Inception and woke them up.
Song Zongwu glanced at Ren Qing.
"It seems I arranged too many people."
"No, no…"
Just as Ren Qing was about to hand the Expelling Filth Soul to Song Zongwu, he couldn't help but gasp.
In the most core position of the flesh and blood plain, was the Brain Tree.
Ren Qing didn't see the Dust Giant, but he found that the originally withered Brain Tree was now completely covered by fungi.
Some looked like fungal parasites.
More than a dozen Child-Giving Matron Temple Priests were under the tree.
The Mortise's direction was also the Brain Tree.
Only 6000 today, I'll rest for a week or two before updating more! The reward list will be sent tomorrow.
