The Secret Way of Immortality

Huang Gou'er's eyes were slightly red, obviously starting to be affected, until Ren Qing used a spell to envelop him and he returned to normal.

After he regained consciousness, he slapped his cheeks hard.

He didn't know what evil he had been possessed by, to actually want to become an immortal, after all, even a capable person like Shopkeeper Ren had no chance of cultivating.

Ren Qing didn't pay attention to what Huang Gou'er was thinking at all, and couldn't help but frown.

Daoist Tianxu should still be some distance away, but his aura had already begun to spread, even affecting ancient cultivators below the Ghost Envoy realm.

Ren Qing felt it was somewhat like the Heavenly Dao, easily driving others to madness.

To be precise, it should be similar to a Turbid Immortal. If the Three Dao Ancestors were to descend, even True Immortals and Buddhas would probably be reduced to ashes.

Could it be that the form of a Turbid Immortal is closer to chaotic and disordered strange objects, while a Weird Immortal is closer to the cultivator himself, which is why there is such a huge difference between the two.

Ren Qing waited patiently, while recklessly discussing Gu worms with Li Yaoyang.

Li Yaoyang勉强算是找到了克制天道虫的办法，牵扯到病种，但具体还要通过多次的实验。(Li Yaoyang barely managed to find a way to restrain the Heavenly Dao worms, involving disease strains, but the specifics still need to be verified through multiple experiments.)

He has already arranged tasks in Dream City, with thousands of Prison Warden Hall cultivators trying repeatedly day and night, it shouldn't be long before he can figure out the general direction.

Finally, Ren Qing will perfect it, and it can be done in about ten days.

Li Yaoyang swallowed and couldn't help but ask softly: "Brother Ren, have you found any clues about the Immortal position related to Gu worms?"

"It's coming…"

"What's coming?"

Heavy footsteps approached from far away, mixed with the heart-wrenching wails of the people, as if a human tragedy was unfolding outside the teahouse.

Li Yaoyang quickly straightened up and subconsciously put the most important jars of Gu worms back into his storage bag, then looked up at the door.

A sedan chair was swaying towards the Minghe Teahouse.

The sedan chair had obviously been enlarged, and it would have been more than enough to stuff thousands of pounds of items into it, but it still seemed incredibly crowded.

From the gap in the curtain, one could see the fat and bloated flesh being squeezed out.

The sedan chair was carried by a dozen fanatical-looking Daoist boys, their shoulder bones already collapsed, and blood flowed down their arms.

But even so, the Daoist boys stepped forward as if they didn't feel any pain.

"Immortals are alive!!"

"Please accept me as a disciple, I am willing to become a stubborn stone for the Immortal to step on."

"Immortal, I have abandoned my wife and children, severing my emotions and desires will definitely allow me to become an immortal."

Hundreds of people surrounded the sedan chair, all kowtowing to the ground, even the old men with white hair and beards did the same.

Ren Qing had only seen such a scene in Cishi's Heaven Above Heaven.

However, the Great Compassionate Maitreya Bodhisattva's methods were far more terrifying than Daoist Tianxu's, completely controlling their souls.

The Heavenly Demon Tribulation had already enveloped the teahouse, and Daoist Tianxu couldn't avoid it, of course, so the aura he emitted was immediately isolated.

The Daoist boys put the sedan chair at the entrance of the Minghe Teahouse, and then belatedly realized what had happened.

They cried and wept while clutching their injured shoulders, then crawled away from the sedan chair where Daoist Tianxu was, as if they had seen a demon.

The people came back to their senses and fled the market in a panic, only daring to watch and discuss the teahouse from the streets and alleys in the distance.

The people in the hall were suspicious and uncertain. They were also affected by Daoist Tianxu, but after all, there were souls far beyond the ordinary here.

"Cultivation, cultivation…"

"Could it be that the old Daoist Tianxu has cultivated himself away?"

Daoist Blackwater said coldly, pouring the tea on the ground as if to ward off bad luck.

The old monk Wutou sat firmly in the center of the hall. He was the abbot of the Buddhist Heart Temple, and his soul also had the level of the Yang God realm.

"Amitabha, unspeakable, unspeakable."

Crack, crack, crack…

The four pieces of hardwood supporting the sedan chair made unbearable noises, and then broke in two, and a pile of rotten flesh squeezed out from inside.

Huang Gou'er's face was dull, then he rushed into the kitchen and vomited against the slop bucket, almost throwing up his intestines.

The expressions of the others were also a little ugly. Daoist Tianxu's appearance was far beyond expectations.

Daoist Tianxu was entirely made up of rotten flesh, his facial features squeezed together, but the bottom was covered with insect-like limbs.

He muttered vaguely: "The Great Dao is promising, the Great Dao is promising…"

"What evil is this, why not let this old Daoist behead it and display it to the public."

Daoist Blackwater couldn't wait to pull out the long sword from his waist, and pasted several yellow papers full of bloody words on the blade, causing the long sword to glow slightly.

Liao Que quickly stopped Daoist Blackwater and advised: "Daoist Blackwater, why not wait for Daoist Tianxu, he must have gained something."

Daoist Blackwater looked around and found that everyone had a secret desire, so he retracted his long sword.

Although Daoist Tianxu looked strange, he did emit the unique aura of magic, and may have found the correct path of cultivation, maybe he just went astray?

The rotten flesh continued to condense and disperse, supported by insect legs, and drilled into the Minghe Teahouse, landing in the open space in the center of the hall.

Faced with an indescribable mass, everyone looked at each other in dismay.

After they remembered the threat of the insect nest, they forcibly suppressed the urge to escape and stared straight at Daoist Tianxu.

Daoist Tianxu talked to himself, although it was all ordinary content, it at least meant that he still retained his sanity.

Which of the ancient cultivators present was not extremely extreme because of re-cultivating magic, and their state of mind unexpectedly coincided with Daoist Tianxu.

Huang Gou'er was so frightened that he almost fainted, but the ancient cultivators quickly got used to it, indicating that they were no longer normal.

Ren Qing understood the truth of it. Daoist Tianxu should have seized the Gu worm, and his soul was also transformed into a part of the Gu worm.

According to the information flow, he actually belonged to a special kind of Gu worm.

[Human Refining Gu]

[Eating the flesh and blood of the Human Refining Gu will cause the body and soul to mutate uncontrollably, and gradually assimilate into the Human Refining Gu, requiring one catty of human brain every three days to feed.]

The Human Refining Gu obviously has no possibility of promotion, but according to the aura it emits, it has reached the Ghost Envoy realm, and is not far from the Yin Messenger realm.

Unconsciously, the content in Daoist Tianxu's mouth was already different.

"I observe that the statue of the Supreme Lord Lao touches the Heavenly Dao, and cultivation can achieve longevity…"

The ancient cultivators pretended to be on guard, but they couldn't help but have the idea of listening, even Daoist Blackwater stopped talking.

They almost simultaneously drew their weapons. No matter what Daoist Tianxu said, or what he looked like, they couldn't easily let him go.

The latest novels are first published on Liǔ 9 Shūbā!

"Choose the special son and other remains, whose whiskers have no spots and are not yet decayed, of moderate age, if you get it, you should bathe and cleanse it, fumigate it with benzoin, cultivate the deity, and guard the three places…"

The more Ren Qing listened, the weirder he felt. What Daoist Tianxu was saying should be a technique for seizing mortals, which had similarities with the most superficial part of the Heavenly Demon Tribulation.

But it would definitely be unrealistic to use this to seize the Gu worm.

After a passage was finished, a dozen ancient cultivators waited in silence, wanting to hear if Daoist Tianxu had any follow-up.

As a result, Daoist Tianxu roared: "Cultivating the seizing technique can reshape the Heavenly Dao!"

"Do you believe me?!"

He couldn't help but look around, and many ancient cultivators had already gotten up and walked over slowly, obviously treating Daoist Tianxu as if he had gone mad.

"Why don't you believe me?!"

Daoist Blackwater was the first to draw his long sword, and the Gu worms in his mouth wriggled.

He said in a mocking tone: "What nonsense are you talking about, the seizing technique must be true, but it can't rebuild the Great Dao at all, just seize the soul directly."

Even if they pretended to be famous and upright, they were just a bunch of lunatics at heart.

These ancient cultivators, who may have once been land immortals, held swords and knives like common people in the market, and slashed hard at Daoist Tianxu.

Daoist Tianxu was still chanting why don't you believe me, and the outermost layer of rotten flesh gradually separated from the skeleton, revealing a vague human figure.

The teahouse hall was full of minced meat, and the ancient cultivators turned into evil ghosts with ferocious faces.

However, Daoist Tianxu began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye after being injured to a certain extent, and the flesh and blood seemed to be endless.

Ren Qing and the others watched as the ancient cultivators exhausted their means, but could not capture his soul.

"Li Yaoyang, is there any relationship between his transformation into a Gu worm and the seizing technique he dictated?"

"It's hard to say, that seizing technique is not even a Prison Warden technique, it's more like an abstract of ancient scriptures."

Ren Qing watched the ancient cultivators stop because they couldn't do anything to Daoist Tianxu, and walked forward with Li Yaoyang on their own.

The ghost shadow pierced into Daoist Tianxu's body, and Li Yaoyang also released the crab-man Gu worm to parasitize him.

Daoist Tianxu was still laughing wildly not long ago, but now he could only gasp in front of Ren Qing and the others, and pain had destroyed his sanity.

The ancient cultivators talked a lot, and didn't notice the nearby Ren Qing at all. Such a scene was indeed bizarre and inexplicable.

Ren Qing studied Daoist Tianxu as if no one else was there, and came to a conclusion after a while.

Daoist Tianxu did seize the Gu worm, but he was gradually taken over by the Gu worm, and his body and soul were more like parasites in the Gu worm's body.

The Gu worm was also protected by the Immortal position, and it was difficult to eliminate it by conventional means in Jing Prefecture.

Ren Qing did not kill Daoist Tianxu, and let the ancient cultivators carry the latter away from the teahouse. Huang Gou'er then walked out of the kitchen exhausted.

Daoist Tianxu was wrapped in a black cloth and then hung in the Three Dragon Temple, showing that they still wanted to figure out whether becoming an immortal was true or false.

The situation in the other towns was similar.

But many ancient cultivators went mad because of this, becoming crazy and babbling about that seizing technique all day long.

The Gu worm-transformed cultivators hanging everywhere made the situation even more confusing.

The mastermind behind the scenes seemed to want to convey some kind of information through the Gu worm-transformed cultivators, but it seemed that the restrictions were too great to be expressed specifically.

The ancient cultivators, led by Daoist Blackwater, completely turned to the Gu refining technique.

They raised Gu worms in batches and looked for ways to refine Gu worms, even at the expense of teaching the Gu refining technique to outsiders.

The Gu refining technique spread, creating thousands of insect warriors.

There were always insect warriors who accidentally promoted their own Gu worms, and it seemed that the Gu refining technique was still developing rapidly even without Ren Qing's guidance.

However, because the methods were too crude, forcibly transplanting Gu worms would inevitably be rejected.

Finally, the ancient cultivators found a clever way to use Daoist Tianxu's flesh and blood to increase the body's compatibility with the Gu worms.

As the days of lifespan depletion approached, Jing Prefecture became more and more crazy, and the wilderness was full of people catching Gu worms.

'Lifespan is near, thirty-two days'

I lost the draft, suddenly lost hundreds of words, sorry for being late.
