The Secret Way of Immortality

Although the sound of the copper bell was fleeting, it continued to echo in Ren Qing's ears.

Ren Qing was hesitating whether to join in the fun when he suddenly felt a hurricane arise nearby, the air mixed with a faint, strange odor.

The smell was somewhat similar to body odor, but it was as corrosive as the aura of a demon.

“This should be the aura emitted by the strange anomaly.”

The copper bell sounded again.

Thick clouds gathered, instantly blocking the sunlight.

A piece of fox skin, several hundred meters in size, covered in blood and flesh, flew past, its fur appearing grayish-green, as if it had just been skinned.

The people didn't dare to look up, and the caravan also stopped in time.

Ren Qing narrowed his eyes, able to feel the strange aura emanating from the fox skin, which should be the Fox Immortal Granny that Deng Chuan mentioned.

However, he didn't find any human skin, nor did he see any trace of the Qingqiu cultivators.

The direction the fox skin was heading was clearly Qingqiu Mountain outside the city, and the disaster caused by this taboo should have ended.

But something was wrong, something was really wrong.

Ren Qing didn't hesitate to leave the caravan.

There were various reasons why he left the Wuwei Taoist Temple, and the fact that outer disciples were inexplicably transformed into strange anomalous cultivators was only one aspect.

Another aspect was that Ren Qing wanted to understand the strange anomalous cultivators, so as to determine the situation of Jingzhou's muddy waters, and then consider contacting the Forbidden Prison Hall.

Of course, he also considered the dream market.

The Immortal Market was obviously restricted by the Wuwei Taoist Temple, and would only maintain the status quo in the short term.

If he continued to open up the dream market, then the only target would be the strange anomalous cultivators, but he didn't even understand their cultivation system.

Ren Qing quickly walked towards the southwest.

Deng Chuan inadvertently glanced at the street and, after spotting Ren Qing's back, fell into a brief daze, inexplicably feeling a sense of familiarity.

“What's wrong, boss?”

The deputy Zhao Xiang couldn't help but ask, and the other bodyguards also turned their attention over.

“It's nothing, it's nothing.”

Deng Chuan hesitated for a few breaths, then continued, “Since Fox Immortal Granny's anger has subsided, then we don't need to go to Changning Street, let's find an inn to rest for a while tonight.”

“That's right, we're all tired and the horses are exhausted.”

The bodyguards' expressions brightened, at least they didn't have to risk their lives to escort the goods, and the next journey would be much easier.

They calmed the frightened old horses and slowly traveled through the streets.

The people in the vicinity walked out of their houses in unison, the stalls were re-arranged, and the shouts were endless, making it impossible to see the original desolation.

It was as if, after the copper bell rang, the district had returned from hell to the human world.

Luo Xian could tell that Deng Chuan was in a good mood, even if the death of the employer affected business, it was still better than losing the lives of the bodyguards.

He asked doubtfully, “Boss, how did you see that Fox Immortal Granny had calmed down?”

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell into a brief silence.

Even Deng Chuan didn't realize that at least several thousand people in the entire district had almost simultaneously had the thought that the Fox Immortal's anger had subsided.

They felt a little more doubt in their hearts, but after only a few breaths, they returned to normal.

“No matter what, let's go to the inn first.”

Deng Chuan shook his head, the lively street dispelled the chill on his back, and the slight strangeness in his heart also vanished.

The bodyguards immediately agreed.

They were talking and laughing, showing no signs that they had been in danger less than half an hour ago, or that a companion had even died because of it.

An invisible butterfly followed the cart, obviously Ren Qing had diverted part of his mind to pay attention to the caravan.

Ren Qing wandered through the crowd and soon arrived at the southwest location.

What came into view was a large open space, with a dilapidated Yizhuang (a mortuary) standing in the middle, where those loose cultivators had disappeared.

Ren Qing used his Heavy Pupils to the extreme, but he didn't notice anything unusual in the Yizhuang, it seemed to be just an ordinary building.

He then stepped into the Yizhuang.

The temperature difference between indoors and outdoors was at least thirty degrees, inside were placed a dozen spirit tablets with blurred writing, and five coffins.

Judging from the writing on the spirit tablets, the Yizhuang should have been abandoned by the people for some time, but the body odor was even stronger indoors.

The coffins were empty, but they were sealed tightly with rivets.

Because the streets had regained their vitality, the surrounding sounds became noisy.

Ren Qing deeply looked around, he knew that the matter of the Qingqiu Fox Immortal was not over, and something was bound to happen next.

It could be seen from the Immortal Market in recent days that the district where the Taoist temple disciples were located had almost no rumors at all.

It was as if the various forces had tacitly approved of this matter.

Ren Qing didn't continue to let Wu Gui devour his sense of existence, but instead walked out of the Yizhuang and soon disappeared into the gradually deepening streets.

He found a deserted courtyard and then sat cross-legged in the house to meditate.

Soul Butterfly projections were distributed in the corners like fireflies, trying to find the source of that strange aura, but unfortunately there were no gains.

Ren Qing didn't intend to force it, if he didn't discover anything strange, he would go to the area occupied by the Corpse Elephant according to the original plan.

When he was in a state of cultivation, time was like the yellow sand flowing through his fingertips, and when he opened his eyes, the morning sun had already risen.

Dense dark clouds covered the sky, as if it was about to rain heavily.

The smell of body odor became more and more intense, but the people seemed to have not smelled it.

Ren Qing couldn't help but frown, with his current cultivation level, he hadn't found anything, could it really be as Deng Chuan said.

“The disaster of the strange anomaly has disappeared?”

Boom boom boom……

Autumn thunder sounded.

As soon as his thought came out, he only heard the dense sound of rain outside, the torrential rain enveloped the entire Jingzhou City.

The chill of late autumn was brought up, and there were still pedestrians on the street.

Then someone blew a Suona horn, along with gongs and drums, and you could also hear the sharp, strange singing of an old woman, as if she was mourning.

Ren Qing opened the window with a slightly surprised expression, only to see a festive wedding sedan passing by along the street, which was really strange in this day and age.

The people were busy with their own affairs, and turned a blind eye to the wedding sedan.

The strong men carrying the sedan were wearing mourning clothes, and the people following were also wearing hemp and filial piety.

Their appearances were very severely alienated, and you could even see the appearance of foxes on their heads, which, according to the current Jingzhou, was a physique that was more in line with the Qingqiu strange anomalous spells.

Similar strange things appeared on adjacent streets at the same time, hundreds of wedding sedans were carried outside, and the sound of gongs and drums was endless.

There were no brides in the sedans at all, but skinned corpses.

The corpses were wearing gorgeous wedding dresses, and you could tell from their figures that they were women, but many places had begun to rot, attracting flies to surround them.

Hundreds of people were playing the Suona horn, the sound echoed in the heavy rain, becoming more and more strange and unbearable.

Ren Qing looked puzzled, where did so many wedding sedans come from, even if the entire Jingzhou was added up, it was estimated that there were not dozens of wedding sedans.

This matter must be related to Qingqiu's strange anomaly, but no traces can be found.

“Wait……”

“Could it not have happened in the remnant moon layer?”

Ren Qing's Heavy Pupils turned without any concealment, he looked in the direction of the blood moon above his head, and his body instantly felt a little weightless.

After a brief gaze in the direction of the blood moon, and being in broad daylight, his body and soul were not pulled into the Gibbous Moon and others, but only experienced slight weightlessness.

Taking advantage of the subtle state, the scene in his eyes underwent earth-shattering changes.

The appearance of the wedding sedan turned into a bloody mess, the curtain was like newly peeled human skin, and it would occasionally wriggle, and even grow hair.

Blood vessels and veins covered the surface, and the skinless corpse that was being carried also came alive.

The corpse, like a bride getting married, was actually holding a bronze mirror, carefully applying rouge and powder to her hideous face.

The wedding sedan was indeed from the Gibbous Moon layer, and must be related to the strange anomalous cultivator.

The destination of all the wedding sedans seemed to be the Yizhuang in the southwest.

Ren Qing took the opportunity to look towards the Yizhuang, but the Yizhuang turned into a huge courtyard, with a flowing crowd inside.

Guests came and went, their appearances were similar to humans and foxes, but their cultivation levels were relatively shallow, and they should be those loose cultivators from before.

They may have come for Qingqiu, or they may have wanted to practice strange anomalous spells.

“What is this, Fox Immortal teaching the Dao?”

Ren Qing's interest grew stronger, since he could be sure that the strange anomaly would not interfere, then it was indeed an opportunity to come into contact with strange anomalous spells.

But is the Gibbous Moon layer so safe for strange anomalous cultivators?

It is full of various strange anomalies.

Within the few breaths that Ren Qing pondered, the things in the Gibbous Moon layer began to disappear.

He either went to the Gibbous Moon layer alone, or practiced strange anomalous spells, the limitation of Heavy Pupils is that they cannot observe across different layers.

“Actually, you can try to be clever……”

After Ren Qing hesitated for a moment, his consciousness came to the prison in his abdomen.

The Immortal Market was relatively deserted because it was closed during the day, only Yuan Si was strolling along the shops with a few newly recruited children.

Ren Qing took a deep breath, and the three dream spells were integrated.

A huge phantom figure was formed outside the Immortal Market, emitting an aura as if it were real, but one dream seed was missing from his forehead.

Dream seeds are different from Soul Butterflies, the former cannot produce projections, and can only maintain the Immortal Market, which invisibly affects dream spells.

Ren Qing had been hesitant before, but now he had made a choice.

He unhesitatingly peeled off the Heavenly Dao Dream Seed, a slight sting was born from his soul, but it disappeared after a moment.

The Immortal Market could not help but shake.

Ren Qing's actions caused the Immortal Market to have a tendency to collapse, cracks spread on the surface of the shops, and the dream became more and more false.

He let out a violent shout: “Transform!”

Light and shadow intertwined, the Immortal Market was re-stabilized, and the cracks all disappeared.

The Heavenly Dao Dream Seed was permanently rooted in the center of Wine Lake Island, which also meant that this dream magic weapon was abandoned by Ren Qing.

Yuan Si was not afraid of the earth-shattering events, and even stood plainly in the middle of the road, waiting quietly.

The children also became fearless when they saw this.

Ren Qing nodded secretly, the children were all Taoist seeds he had collected for the Wuwei Taoist Temple, so he asked Yuan Si to bring them to the prison in his abdomen.

Although it was unrealistic to expand the Wuwei Taoist Temple by this, at least it could solve the urgent need.

His consciousness returned to his body.

Then Ren Qing spread out his palm, and with the blessing of the three dream spells, the new dream seed that needed to be conceived for several months gradually appeared.

This dream seed was relatively pure, without any mixed aura.

Ren Qing reached out and inlaid it on his brow, and after the dream seed tried to be contaminated with that body odor, he finally saw the rich aura that permeated the air.

The dream seed took the initiative to absorb it.

The strange anomalous aura was actually more like demon energy, and the dream seed was named by him……

Demon Anomaly Dream Seed.

There is one more chapter, wait a moment.

The Heavenly Worm Method has already gained some insight, and the next step is to show the strange anomalous spells.
