Cultivating Immortality from the Book of Life and Death

Chapter 21 I am a good ghost.

After entering the house, Zheng Que fastened the bolt behind him and went straight into the inner room. He sat down beside the bed. He first quickly recalled the knowledge that his master had explained in the morning in his mind, then looked up at Qingli who was already hanging on the beam.

The next moment, he used the [Ghost Controlling Technique] to capture Qingli in his palm.

Suddenly, he was the only figure left in the simple house.

Zheng Que did not delay any longer and began to practice immediately.

As the technique was practiced, strands of cold air seeped into his body, his face turned paler and paler, and the spiritual power in his qi sea gradually increased.

After a long time, Zheng Que opened his eyes and saw a dilapidated palace.

The [Book of Life and Death] was spread out on the mottled long table in front of him, constantly absorbing the gurgling black air emanating from between his eyebrows.

Seeing that he had arrived in the underworld, Zheng Que immediately looked at the Book of Life and Death.

"...Zheng Que. Birthplace: Changfu Town, Taiping County, Tuzhou, Dali Dynasty. Life span: sixteen years, seven months, and ten days. Died at the hour of Hai."

There was no change in the record, and he only had four days left to live.

Time is too tight, I need to improve my strength faster...

With his mind made up, Zheng Que immediately spread out his five fingers and used the [Ghost Controlling Technique]...

Whoosh!
A streak of blood quickly escaped, and when it flew to the bottom of the hall, it seemed to suddenly lose all its strength and fell directly to the ground.

The blood turned into a woman in white clothes and black hair, and it was Qingli.

She was now the same as when she first entered here, with her head slightly lowered, her long hair scattered around her cheeks. Through the gaps between her hair, her expression was dull and her eyes were blank. She stood there stupidly, as if she had lost her mind.

After a while, Qingli seemed to regain consciousness little by little. After realizing that she had inexplicably arrived in the underworld, she quickly knelt down with a plop, changing her arrogant attitude in front of Zheng Que and shouting in a trembling voice: "I, I am innocent!"

"I never asked that human cultivator to prepare a hundred living people to moisten my throat!"

"I am a kind-hearted woman. I have been a vegetarian for many years and have never eaten human flesh!"

"I am a good ghost, I only do good deeds..."

Listening to Qingli's sophistry, Zheng Que said nothing and observed the other party carefully.

The sound of kowtows echoed endlessly in the empty hall. Qingli lay on the ground, trembling with fear, while continuing to babble with lies, shifting all the blame onto the human cultivators, and portraying himself as a good ghost who was pure in heart, virtuous, cautious in words and deeds, and spotless...

Zheng Que pondered inwardly, this female criminal has now become intelligent, but when she enters the underworld, she will still be unconscious for a period of time, just like last time.

He didn't know the reason, but this situation made it easier for him to hide his identity and prevent the other party from noticing anything unusual.

In addition, he has now activated the [Spiritual Eye Technique] and is always paying attention to the Yin energy on Qingli's body.

According to Master's explanation today, Qingli's initial cultivation level was the first level of [Tongue-Pulling Prison]. Later, after absorbing the Yin energy of "Sound Calling Ghost", she reached the third level of [Tongue-Pulling Prison].

This time, he and Qingli teamed up to kill Old Lady Zhao, who was at the fourth level of the [Tongue-Pulling Prison]. This was a good opportunity to try and see if Qingli could absorb Old Lady Zhao's Yin energy.
"Unlike the 'Calling Ghost' incident, this time it wasn't me who killed Old Lady Zhao, but Qingli." "If Qingli can absorb Old Lady Zhao's Yin energy, it means that as long as a name is recorded in the [Book of Life and Death], the Yin energy of ghosts will also be swallowed up by the underworld."

"If Qingli doesn't change at all, then I might have to kill all the ghosts myself in the future..."

Thinking of this, Zheng Que discovered that since Qingli appeared in the hall, the Yin energy on her body has been very stable, with no sign of increasing at all.

He frowned immediately, thought carefully, and realized that this time he seemed to have missed a step...

So, Zheng Que took advantage of the moment when Qingli was kneeling on the ground trembling and not daring to look up, and immediately stretched out his hand again, with the palm of his hand with the word "Ling" on it, and instantly pointed it at Qingli.

really!

The next moment, in Zheng Que's sight, the Yin energy on Qingli's body suddenly began to grow rapidly. The originally gloomy hall seemed to be stirred up by a silent storm. The Yin energy that swarmed in from nowhere filled the entire hall and turned into a black mist lake suspended in the air, quickly pouring into Qingli's body.

The woman who was already surrounded by a gloomy aura suddenly had her long hair flying and her skirt fluttering, and her aura surged!

At this time, Qingli obviously noticed something unusual, but since the person in the hall didn't say anything, she didn't dare to make any movement, not even to look up to see the other person's expression. She could only maintain a submissive posture and not move.

"Thank you very much, sir!"

"Your Excellency is perceptive, upright, just, and impartial. You uphold justice and uphold the truth. You are honest and just. You are fair and impartial..."

Qingli was filled with flattery in an instant, and spoke hurriedly. The Yin energy on her body became heavier and heavier, gradually climbing to the fourth level of [Tongue-Pulling Prison].

Looking at this scene, Zheng Que suddenly knew for sure that the last time Qingli entered the underworld, he used the [Ghost Controlling Technique] to issue an attack order to Qingli, which was why Qingli suddenly became wise.

At the moment, it seems that Qingli will not be able to gain any power by simply bringing her into the underworld.

If he wants the other party to inherit the power here, he must first issue an order... To be precise, it is not an order, but the word "Order" on his palm.

After roughly understanding the situation, Zheng Que nodded slightly. In order to maintain his style in the underworld, he said nothing. He waited until the Yin energy in Qingli's body stopped growing, and then he used the [Ghost Controlling Technique] again and took Qingli into his palm.

As the black air between his eyebrows became thinner and thinner, and finally disappeared without a trace, the surrounding scene began to shake like a reflection. In the blink of an eye, Zheng Que had returned to his simple house.

At this moment, the sky outside the window was dark, and the sparse stars cast a pale glow, vaguely outlining the outline of the town.

It was still afternoon when he had just started practicing, but now it was already evening.

Zheng Que withdrew his gaze from the window and loosened his hand. A ray of blood immediately escaped from his palm and turned into a woman in white clothes and black hair.

Qingli's whole body was full of Yin energy and her aura was strong. She had actually reached the fourth level of [Tongue-Pulling Prison]. The temperature in the whole room suddenly dropped because of her appearance, as if falling into an ice cellar. Such momentum was even stronger than that of Old Lady Zhao.

Looking at this scene, Zheng Que knew in his heart that Qingli had absorbed all the negative energy from Old Lady Zhao.

If nothing unexpected happens, he can use this method to continuously kill ghosts and make Qingli stronger and stronger!

I wonder what the disaster will be in four days?
Before that, the stronger Qingli is, the better!
