The Secret Way of Immortality

Everyone hurriedly rushed over upon hearing the sound.

While running, Ren Qing pondered to himself, realizing that to silently assassinate the cultivators inside the cave, he would definitely need to coordinate with spells.

This suddenly reminded him of the Land God; logically speaking, burrowing underground would indeed be difficult to detect.

Moreover, Ren Qing had a feeling that something was off about the Land God.

When everyone arrived at the open space outside the house, they saw that it was covered with pythons, which were moving corpses elsewhere.

Ren Qing's heavy pupils rotated, and he immediately discovered that among the densely packed opossum corpses, one was still twitching slightly.

The living opossum had transformed into a human shape, with only a few gray hairs remaining on its back, and its eyes appeared extremely hollow.

If Ren Qing hadn't seen so much, he would definitely have been frightened.

The appearances of the thousands of rat corpses were identical, and their expressions after death were as if they had been carved from the same mold, making one's hair stand on end.

Jiang Feng glanced at Ren Qing in surprise, as the latter seemed to be reacting even faster than him.

What kind of spell grants such vision?

Jiang Feng couldn't help but bend down to examine the rat-person, noticing that it lacked any intelligence and its vitality was constantly draining away.

"Huang Ziwan, use toxins to stimulate his Niwan Palace and see if he can regain his intelligence."

Ren Qing took the opportunity to grab the rat-person's body, ostensibly to control him, but in reality to summon the information stream.

【???】

【Age: Four Shichen】

【Lifespan: One Hundred and Sixty-Three Breaths】

The rat-person's lifespan was constantly decreasing, and it was about to wither and die.

"Hold him steady."

Huang Ziwan extended his index finger, its nail turning dark green as it pierced into the rat-person's brow, directly penetrating the thick skull.

The rat-person struggled frantically.

If Ren Qing's physique hadn't been significantly improved after advancing to the Ghost Messenger realm, he might not have been able to hold it down.

Huang Ziwan said in a deep voice, "It has no soul."

Jiang Feng explained, "The rat mother's clone will only develop a soul after the main body dies."

Ren Qing muttered to himself, whether the soul has anything to do with the main body is another matter.

Jiang Feng stared at the rat-person and asked in a chilling tone, "Who are you?"

The rat-person's eyes seemed to gain a bit of brilliance, and it only heard it muttering to itself: "Who am I? Who am I? Who am I..."

A large amount of blood poured out of its mouth and nose, and its body trembled constantly, its skin growing wrinkles at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Lifespan: Eighty-five breaths remaining.

Jiang Feng said loudly, "Huang Ziwan!"

Huang Ziwan narrowed his eyes, the color of his index finger deepened, and the toxin injected into the rat-person's head, causing the latter's face to twist.

Seeing that the rat-person's lifespan was about to run out, but no clues had been obtained, Ren Qing couldn't help but ask, "Are you a Jailer?"

"Jailer, Jailer..."

The rat-person's eyes revealed contemplation, and the muttering in its mouth became louder and louder, as if trying to recall some fragmented memories.

Jiang Feng and Huang Ziwan exchanged glances. Although involving the Jailer would be very troublesome, the corresponding reward would be greater.

"Ren Qing, you continue."

Ren Qing hesitated for a moment.

Since the Land God might be related to this matter, he didn't need to deliberately hide it, and he had already informed Song Zongwu in advance.

Ren Qing tentatively asked, "Jailer... Land God?"

The rat-person's eyes widened, the whites of its eyes filled with bloodshot veins.

"Land God... Land God..."

It muttered, blood flowing uncontrollably from its facial features, and its head swelled up, causing cracks to appear in its skull.

"I am not the Land God..."

The rat-person's voice became heavy, but gave Ren Qing a feeling of madness.

"So I am..."

Before he could finish speaking, the rat-person's lifespan was completely exhausted, and it exploded into minced meat, leaving not even a complete skeleton behind.

As the rat-person died, the remaining corpses decayed at a speed visible to the naked eye, leaving only ashes on the ground after a moment.

Jiang Feng asked hesitantly, "Is it really related to the Jailer?"

Huang Ziwan also felt doubtful: "The Land God has no reason to devour strange objects, the risk is too great."

He didn't know much about the Land God, only having come into contact with him in the Disaster Elimination Forbidden Zone, and their relationship was not as close as his relationship with Ren Qing.

It was hard to imagine that unrelated things could be connected.

Jiang Feng didn't recognize the Land God, but having a suspected target was better than having no gains.

The most ⊥new⊥small⊥say⊥in⊥six⊥9⊥⊥book⊥⊥bar⊥⊥first⊥release!

Ren Qing told the two of them the whole story, but concealed the separation of body and soul, only saying that he had accidentally heard it at night.

The two suspected that the Land God was under the control of some spell.

"I saw the Land God in the Secret Pavilion a few days ago, and his condition was indeed a bit abnormal, even his memory had problems."

Jiang Feng responded, "With the Land God's spell cultivation, it is not difficult to sneak attack a half-corpse realm cultivator in the cave."

Huang Ziwan said with a bitter face: "The most important thing is to figure out where the Land God is and what his purpose is."

"I will report to the Jailer Hall, we are not good at finding people, so the Mud Society's mission may be taken over by other Jailers."

Ren Qing rubbed his nose, the Jailer Hall really had a clear division of labor, in contrast, the yamen had high risks and low returns.

"Just in case, Yan Jun, set up a spell."

"Senior Jiang, the spell can only last for about three Shichen."

Yan Jun felt a little heartache, in fact, the pythons transformed from hair could be taken back, but now hundreds of hairs would be wasted.

After the pythons spread throughout the cave, Jiang Feng said, "It's okay, let's leave first."

The group followed the tunnel Ren Qing had come from to the outside world, the other forks having been sealed off.

Under the bright sunshine, Ren Qing felt like he was in another world, it was hard to imagine that the Mud Society's gang members had to stay in the narrow and deep underground all the time.

"I'll return to the Jailer Hall first."

Jiang Feng took out a bone key, drew a door, and then stepped into it.

Yan Jun also bid farewell and left.

Ren Qing looked at Huang Ziwan in a daze: "Old Huang, is the mission over just like that?"

"It's like this for the time being, as for whether we want to follow up, we'll wait for the Nether Crow to inform us."

Huang Ziwan took out some wine and took a sip, looking like he wasn't worried about the possible disasters that might follow, but was instead overjoyed because of the reward.

Ren Qing couldn't help but ask, "What exactly is the reward for the mission?"

Huang Ziwan said with a strange expression: "It seems that Old Song didn't explain it to you clearly, but his character is indeed like that."

"There is a special blood crystal mine in the Jailer Hall, although it is very hard, it is useless, so it is used as currency by the Jailers."

He took out a pigeon egg-sized red gem and shook it.

Ren Qing felt that the blood crystal was like a frozen drop of blood, and he could also smell a fishy smell, it should be condensed from the blood of the Ksitigarbha.

"The Ghost Market is in a few days, if you are interested, you can come and see with me."

Ren Qing's mind moved, it would be good to be able to obtain materials for forging his natal magic weapon.

But what exactly is sold in the Ghost Market?

There are no rumors of natural treasures in this world.

Ren Qing asked Huang Ziwan, the latter smiled strangely and shook his head, without directly answering his question.

【On the extra recommendation spot, love you all.】

【Sanjin has to wait, officials, please continue to support!】

Thanks for the reward from 20180902153324034.
