Wet viviparity

Chapter 478 Three times, ask for capable people
After Li Muru, Ling Gu and the others came, Ji Ming postponed the third corpse transformation.

Every day, in addition to teaching Ling Gu her lessons, he discussed Taoism with Li Muru, and took the elixirs given by Leng Cuishan to improve his own Gangfeng breathing method. His life was harmonious and interesting.

During this period, Xiong Konger once looked for him and asked about Zhang Xinmei.

Xiong Kong'er, the demon with the blood of the flying bear, was recommended by Ji Ming to join Li Muru as a spirit companion. He had only said so at the time and did not expect that it would actually come true.

The memory of the old friend Zhang Xinmei has remained deep in Ji Ming's memory.

At that time, Zhang Xinmei said that she went to Mingyu Mountain to look for Gu Huagong, the great master of the Palace of Wrongful Death. However, Ji Ming and others did not see Zhang Xinmei during the process of destroying the Palace of Wrongful Death, and did not know whether she was alive or dead.

Afterwards, Ji Ming did not go looking for this old friend. After all, the world is unpredictable, fortune and misfortune are unpredictable, and he would not spend too much time on others and delay his own practice.

Ji Ming had no answer to Xiong Konger's question. He only said that if he wanted to find Zhang Xinmei, he could only go to the ruins of the Demon Palace at the foot of Mingyu Mountain.

Before going to Mingyu Mountain, he learned from Zhang Xinmei that there were four secret places in the palace. One was the Prajna Bamboo Forest, where there was the Buddhist treasure Wisdom Bamboo, the second was the imitation ghost gate, the third was the water cave for refining magic under the grass pond, and the fourth was a Buddhist hall.

The first three places had been found, but the Buddhist temple was unknown. If Zhang Xinmei was not dead, there should be clues there.

Time flies, and a year passed in a flash. The huge bell rang on time in the mountains and swamps, and Li Muru led Lu Lianxiong and his family away. Ji Ming asked Qianshou'er to escort them all the way, and then followed the guidance of the goddess to the western land.

Outside the palace, Ling Gu was the only one who did not go to the mountains and swamps. She was left behind by Ji Ming and continued to be taught carefully.

Ji Ming was not completely sure about the third corpse transformation. The purpose of leaving Ling Gu behind was to have someone to collect his body in case his alchemy failed. Otherwise, his many treasures would be left here and would be given to future generations.

In the wilderness, Linggu was playing carefree. After practicing, she picked flowers, made rings, and picked berries. She was very happy. Ji Ming did not ruin Linggu's good mood, but only told her not to leave the vicinity of the temple.

Leiwen Mountain and Marsh are not as safe as they seem. Ji Ming only relies on the magic circle set up by his ancestors here, as well as a treasure tower that specifically fights against evil creatures, so he has some quiet time.

In this mountain and swamp, Ji Ming did not dare to explore the alchemy room floating in the void, the corpse of Ruicai that occasionally floated up in the lake, and the ancient bells and drums scattered on the cliffs. It is important for a person to know himself.

Ji Ming and the three corpses repeatedly understood the key points in the third reincarnation, as well as the crucial heavenly calamity.

It is not too difficult to travel in the spirit to Taiyin, reflect on the past, and prevent one's heart from sinking into depravity. However, if a heavenly calamity is added to the mix, it is like entering a dead end, with no idea of ​​the way out.

Can Ji Ming retreat?
You cannot retreat. If you retreat, your Dao heart will be lost. Not to mention the heavenly calamity, even the "Observation of the Past" will be lost in it.

Can you slow down?

You can't delay either. The last corpse transformation requires you to live towards death. If you delay for a moment, the possibility of failure will increase.

When you really face the situation of going there even though you know there is a tiger in the mountain, you will still go there. Only then do you realize how difficult and hard it is. Along the way, I have held so many things in my hands and in my arms.

Even if he had the "Eye of Transformation from Wet Egg" and could do it again, he did not have the confidence that he could perform so brilliantly again.

At this moment, Ji Ming knew very well that he was like a miser. The favors, connections, fame, foundation, etc. in this life were the treasures that he must hold on to even at his death!

What is funny is his reason. His clear reason tells him that he should abandon these things. Only by abandoning these things can the three poisons of greed, anger and ignorance be kept away, and only then can the Dharma image be broken, and only then can he have the foundation of the Tao heart to rise again and become an immortal after going through countless lifetimes.

"I understand."

Ji Ming stretched out his hand behind his head and grabbed out the Zanxin Yinzhu and Yangzhi Baoguang pendant, took off the magic scroll from his head, took out everything from his body, put them all into the relic bottle, then carried the bottle out of the hall and placed it gently outside.

He no longer cared about these things, nor did he think about them anymore. He even no longer cared about his second soul, as if he had forgotten the eye that had transformed from the wet egg.

"Are you ready?" The corpse in the middle of the three corpses, holding the "Taiyin Yupo", shouted.

This jade soul is the key magic weapon for the third corpse transformation, and is also the key to the "Three Corruptions of Intake of Qi" in the Taiyin Body Refining Method. It is only in the hands of these three corpses.

This corpse once said that when he was alive, he had studied the method of "Intake of Qi and Three Corruptions" with Zhong Chengzi, hoping to bring forth something new from the old. His goal was to find a way to modify the irreplaceable nature of Taiyin Yupo in this method so that it could benefit the world.

But these have nothing to do with Ji Ming, he has to face the last step.

"Ok!"

Jimin responded softly.

He didn't even know how he uttered this response, and for a moment he felt as if he was pushing himself off a cliff.

The next second, the Niwan Palace suddenly opened up, and the top of the head seemed to be pierced by the cold light from the moon soul. In an instant, translucent green air gushed out of the seven orifices, and in a trance, the body peeled off like a cicada's molt - this was the sign of "physical dissolution" mentioned in Taiyin Lianxing.

After his spirit calmed down a little, he saw the vast Taiyin realm slowly unfolding beneath him.

The four dimensions are all hung with moonlight made of colored glass, like thousands of pieces of icy silk hanging in the void. The footholds are made of neither gold nor jade. Every step taken will cause six-sided frost flowers to bloom, which will then turn into tiny silver flakes and float away in an instant.

Suddenly, the sound of bells and chimes was heard in the air. Looking in the direction of the sound, I saw twelve cold moons circling in the sky. The entire palace in the center seemed to be made of cold marrow. The icy bells hanging from the eaves were trembling slightly in the strong wind. The sound was like scriptures, and every word echoed in my ears.

In Qunyufang, Kuangshan, and among the ten thousand mu apricot trees.

Baicaozi had been back in Kuangshan for some time. He was not a fool and had already sensed the undercurrent in Taipingshan.

Previously, he had been concentrating on dealing with Lingxuzi, and had finally managed to get him to the point of weakness. Later, the Shangfu appointed Yourongzi as the deputy acting governor of the Shangfu, to assist Master Lizhu in handling the confidential matters concerning the finale of the second duel.

This suddenly increased the threat posed by You Rongzi to Zhang Xiaoyuan to the maximum, forcing him to concentrate on dealing with You Rongzi.

Unfortunately, You Rongzi is not the suppressed Lingxuzi, and he has not done anything wrong. Even though he knows that You Rongzi is not very interested in Master Taiping, sometimes he cannot gamble even if the possibility is one in ten thousand.

In several secret battles, he didn't even see You Rongzi and suffered a great loss at Tianhe Peak. This made him more convinced that You Rongzi was a greater threat than Lingxuzi.

Lingxuzi does not have the support of any peak, but Yourongzi does have the Tianhe Peak as his backing. But just when he was about to take further action, Zhang Xiaoyuan was suddenly exiled to a small branch temple in Chixian Prefecture.

Before Baicaozi could understand the situation clearly, Zhang Xiaoyuan was sent to Taixuan Prefecture, one of the two northern prefectures, and then to Tianshui Prefecture.

Zhang Xiaoyuan was "demoted" repeatedly, which made Baicaozi wake up all of a sudden. He realized that he had been too active in recent years and had unknowingly jumped to the forefront, greatly disturbing the tranquility of the immortals in the Three Peaks and One Prefecture.

The result of his activeness was that after Zhang Xiaoyuan got into trouble, few real people spoke up for him. There were even rumors in the upper mansion that Zhang Xiaoyuan would be expelled from the mountain gate.

At this point, Baicaozi naturally did not dare to stay on the mountain for long. He hastily made arrangements and then returned to the ancestral temple in Kuangshan. He called his trusted companions to discuss the matter together. Finally, after racking his brains, he came up with a plan - to ask for help.

This person must be a person of extraordinary intelligence and a ruthless and evil power. More importantly, he must owe Baicaozi a huge favor in Kuangshan and must do things to repay it.

Kuangshan is a holy land of medicine, and the ten thousand acres of apricot forest are proof of this. There are countless people who owe karma here, so it is not difficult to invite a great man from the world, but the difficulty lies in satisfying Baicaozi's two requirements.

He is extremely intelligent and vicious, and it is for these two reasons that he would help him deal with Yamagami Michiko without any scruples.

If he is a righteous master, we can only serve him even if we invite him. Even if we force him to come up with a vicious plan, it will surely be a half-hearted plan, so he will not be willing to do his best.
