Donghuang Ziji

Chapter 352: Eighth Rank

[Coroner] As Chu Tai once suspected, the nine figures around the Donghuang Bell were the fragments of the ninth-grade Tao fruit under the Great Sima Ming system during the period of the Nine Songs Gods, involving a large number of death and underworld attributes.

According to the living people who master the [Coroner], they will generally master some rituals and perception methods related to death and souls. At the same time, they will be more sensitive to death and can sense where death occurs. When they reach the peak, they can even sense the time of death when the life span is about to end.

The second is to obtain a certain degree of physical strength improvement, as well as a lot of knowledge related to the organs and structure of the human body. The extraordinary power that can be used directly has the ability to improve resistance to decay, cold and death, and the ability to see ghosts directly.

Finally, as you handle more corpses, you will automatically understand the characteristics and weaknesses of some living creatures.

The Crow Immortal Wu Chaoxi is an alien who has achieved enlightenment, and he is also a ghost immortal who has lost his physical body.

Chu Tai was also somewhat curious about what changes would occur after Wu Chaoxi obtained the power of [Coroner].

Wu Chaoxi, who had no idea of ​​Chu Tai's thoughts, stared at the [Coroner] for a long time and swallowed it without hesitation.

Wisps of yin energy emanated from Wu Chaoxi's body, transforming into an illusory crow that appeared behind him.

Amid the cheers, the crow transformed into a human form and the breath of the underworld gradually strengthened. Chu Tai threw the Dao Fruit fragment in his hand and vaguely felt the changes in Wu Chaoxi.

The magic power he cultivated was combining with that of the [Coroner], and his true Qi was integrated into it, stimulating some of the legal principles contained in the [Coroner].

At the same time, the part of [Coroner] that was suitable for Wu Chaoxi began to become stronger under the stimulation of his magic power, while other aspects gradually declined.

Three rays of light appeared at Chu Tai's fingertips, and the first ray of light showed the rune pattern of [Coroner] in Chu Tai's body.

The second ray of spiritual light contained the pattern of the [Coroner] talisman that Wu Chaoxi had swallowed earlier.

The third one contains the [Coroner] talisman pattern that has absorbed part of Ru Chaoxi's true energy and legal principles and has undergone changes.

The three talismans each have their own characteristics and unique features.

While Chu Tai was observing silently, Feifei beside him also showed a surprised expression.

In Feifei's eyes, the three runes on Chu Tai's palm were the three perfect directions of the talisman.

The lines within the first ray of spiritual light were complete and perfect, and he couldn't tell at all whether the direction had been changed.

The lines within the second spiritual light were incomplete and fragmentary, containing infinite possibilities, but they were also something he could not repair no matter what.

The patterns within the last third ray of spiritual light were incomplete, imperfect, and did not have infinite potential, but they were very suitable for Wu Chaoxi.

"Fellow Daoist Chu, can you let me study these three talismans?"

Feifei hesitated for a long time before putting forward her idea.

Chu Tai thought about it for a moment and handed the talisman to Feifei without hesitation.

After a brief study, Feifei felt that she had gained a lot, but these gains were ultimately separated by a layer, so she couldn't help but make a second request.

"Do you have any suitable Dao Fruit fragments? Can you let me try it?"

"Just wait a moment."

Chu Tai rejected Fei Fei's request and pointed at Wu Chaoxi who was digesting the power of [Coroner] and said, "This is the first time I've tried this, so it's better to be careful. I can still control it with just Fellow Daoist Wu Chaoxi, but with you, it will be hard for me to control it."

Hearing this, Feifei, who was originally a little disappointed, suddenly smiled and turned to look at Wu Chaoxi beside her.

At this moment, Wu Chaoxi's power has changed slightly, and the talisman in his body has basically taken shape. Through the Dao Fruit fragments, Chu Tai roughly knows Wu Chaoxi's version of the [Coroner] power.

The inheritance of knowledge has remained basically unchanged, but the improvement in abilities has changed quite a bit.

First of all, because Wu Chaoxi has no physical body, the enhancement of the physical body is removed. At the same time, as a ghost, Wu Chaoxi himself has the ability to see ghosts, and there is no need to enhance his "vision" and obtain Yin-Yang eyes.

As these powers disappeared, Wu Chaoxi's version of [Coroner] had a stronger ability to sense death. The ability to sense whether another person was nearing the end of his life and guess the approximate time of death, which originally required reaching the peak level, became one of the basic abilities.

Secondly, the resistance to decay, cold and the breath of death has also been enhanced to a certain extent. According to Chu Tai's calculations, it is about 30% stronger than the normal version.

"It seems that I have underestimated the method that I deduced with the help of the Donghuang Bell. Its wonderful use is beyond my expectations..."

Chu Tai thought for a while and asked about Wu Chaoxi's condition again.

"There is no problem. On the contrary, I feel that my qualifications and strength have improved to a certain extent. Secondly, I can feel that there is a higher level of power above this talisman."

Wu Chaoxi didn't say everything, but his meaning was very clear. Chu Tai thought for a while and released the authority, allowing Wu Chaoxi to sense the Dao Fruit fragment corresponding to [Paper-making Craftsman].

Compared to the attack methods of [Coroner] which do not involve extraordinary powers, the [Painter] has many more methods.

Although all abilities are based on the ability to endow paper-zha with spirituality, there are actually many theories on how to endow paper-zha with spirituality.

Among the information recorded in [Paper-Zhajiang], the simplest one is to give paper-Zha spirituality through various rituals to drive it to act, and then to nourish its essence through other rituals.

The slightly more troublesome method is to combine the craftsmanship of the craftsmen with the method of nourishing the spirit and nurturing the spirit, and then activate the spirituality after nurturing the charm of paper-making.

Some of the more bizarre ones extract blood containing special powers from the corpses as nutrients to ignite paper-making.

After this part of power was absorbed by Wu Chaoxi, it turned into invisible pieces of paper flying around him. At the same time, Wu Chaoxi's originally faint shadow became clearer, with a lot of dark power precipitated inside.

Feifei sat up straighter. He could already feel that Wu Chaoxi's cultivation had made obvious progress, and it seemed that he was showing some signs of reaching the fifth level.

Wu Chaoxi himself was also aware of this, and he began to continuously integrate his own strength, coordinating with the talisman corresponding to the [Zhacaijiang] in his body, trying to use the legal principles contained therein as an introduction to guide out his own legal intentions.

But all this was obviously unacceptable to Chu Tai, and he cast a spell to prevent Wu Chaoxi from taking further steps.

Wu Chaoxi, who was awakened by the pleasure of increased strength, was furious at first, and then he felt the power in his body and found that his true Qi had been affected by the [Zhacaijiang] talisman several times. While becoming more perfect, it was also contaminated with some foreign Taoist principles and theories. He was so shocked that the Yin energy in his body exploded slightly. He thanked Chu Tai repeatedly and apologized for his recklessness.

Seeing this, Chu Tai consoled him, "Fellow Daoist Wu, you don't need to be like this. This is a new method that I have deduced, so there must be all kinds of imperfections. Fellow Daoist, you were able to help me find a problem this time, so I should thank you instead."

As he spoke, Chu Tai carefully asked Wu Chaoxi about his feelings this time.

"Although the power increase is not great, the purity of the mana has been improved. In addition, this Dao fruit fragment is indeed an exotic item that can infect countless cultivators. Just by simply touching it, I can gain countless knowledge. It gives me the illusion that I can open the door to the fifth rank. In the end, without realizing it, my own origin merged with it, becoming a node for the exotic to influence us."

Speaking of this, Wu Chaoxi expressed his admiration for Chu Tai again.

"I have only touched the Dao Fruit fragments that you have purified and sorted out. You can imagine how terrible the impact you are bearing every moment is. Daoist Chu, you are able to remain normal under these influences, which is really admirable."

Chu Tai smiled when he heard this, but did not continue discussing this topic. Instead, he looked at Fei Fei and asked him if he still wanted to try to absorb the talismans derived from the fruit fragments.

Feifei nodded repeatedly after hearing that, and then touched her head, a little embarrassedly said: "Just as you guessed at the beginning, Fellow Daoist Chu, I have made very slow progress over the years. I originally thought that after coming to see you this time, I would find a place to practice well, accumulate virtue and do good deeds, and try to ascend to the Heavenly Palace with a sixth-grade body. Now that I have the opportunity to go further, I naturally have to try it."
