Cultivating Immortality from the Book of Life and Death

Chapter 342 Using the Mouth. (Second Update!)

This world.

On a small hillside on the outskirts of Taiping County, a banner for summoning souls fluttered in the wind. Shu Yunying and Ku Lan stood on either side of Zheng Que, looking at him in the middle.

Zheng Que was surrounded by a blood mist, which made his figure appear and disappear.

Under Niannu's control, Gao Yinxia acted swiftly with her body, soon stripping Zheng Que of his robes completely. However, after repeated inspections, she found no problems.

Seeing this, Shu Yunying nodded slightly. It seemed that Shu Que's health was fine...

But just as she was about to state her conclusion, Ku Lan quickly said, "Young Master's body, from the outside, seems to be fine."

"But the reality may be different."

"I have a secret technique here that I can teach to Niannu."

"Let Niannu try it out on this evil human female cultivator's body, and we'll know the truth."

As she spoke, Ku Lan stared intently at Zheng Que's naked body, and subconsciously licked her lips. The bright red tip of her tongue contrasted beautifully with her black clothes and black umbrella, creating a uniquely alluring effect.

I wonder what happened to this evil human cultivator just now?
Will this affect my future practice of absorbing yang energy to replenish yin?
Therefore, in order to avoid delaying his chance to become an immortal, it would be best to try it out using that evil human female cultivator's body first...

Upon hearing this, Niannu immediately asked, "What kind of Yin magic?"

Ku Lan immediately said, "This Yin technique is called the [Charming Woman Steals Yang Technique]."

"The key points and methods are..."

Soon, Ku Lan explained the entire "Sexual Ambition: Stealing Yang Technique" in its entirety.

After hearing this, Shu Yunying, who was standing next to her, was immediately puzzled. This seemed to be a Yin technique that involved absorbing Yang energy to replenish Yin energy.

Ok……

Although this Yin technique is bad for Shu Que's body, it can indeed be used to examine the problems inside Shu Que's body in the current situation...

At the same time, Qingli, inside the summoning banner, listened for a long time but felt completely confused, having no idea what this Yin technique Kulan was talking about!
However, seeing Niannu looking at her with a questioning look in her eyes, Qingli immediately pretended to know a lot and replied without thinking, "This technique can indeed check the problems of this human child."

"Go ahead and do your thing."

"With your great-aunt watching over us, there's nothing to worry about!"

Upon hearing this, Niannu immediately felt relieved. The Yin technique that Kulan mentioned was somewhat similar to the one that Lord Zheng Que had asked her to practice before.

But since Lady Qingli said it's alright, then it must be alright!

So Niannu immediately manipulated Gao Yinxia's body and began to undress her.

However, Gao Yinxia's dress and jade pendants, though seemingly light and airy, were not made of ordinary materials upon closer inspection; they were actually a set of specially crafted magical robes.

Niannu tugged at her sash for a long time and tried to unfasten the hidden clasp at her waist, but it wouldn't budge and she couldn't take it off at all.

There is clearly some kind of restriction inside this set of robes, and it cannot be broken without a specific incantation!

Seeing this, Niannu immediately looked at Kulan and said, "No, I can't untie the clothes of this human female cultivator."

Without the slightest hesitation, Kulan replied matter-of-factly, "Then use your mouth!"

With your mouth?

Niannu was slightly taken aback, then said "Oh," and knelt down in front of Zheng Que...

※※※

In the dilapidated palace, Zheng Que stood before a long table, one hand gripping a rickety armchair, the other holding a small piece of wood, carefully comparing it to the other.

The lacquer on the armchair in front of me has peeled off, and the mottled texture makes it look very old. Its style is not complicated for an armchair. The center of the backrest is not inlaid, but is instead carved with densely packed characters that look like insects and birds. These characters seem to have been severely worn over the years and are almost illegible. Judging from the structure, number of characters, and length, they look like some kind of scripture.

The handrails on the two sides are different. The left side is carved with waves and bones, as if it were formed from a river, with some pebbles embedded in the middle, eventually converging into a badly worn skull at the end; the right side is a continuous string of red spider lilies, intertwined and connected, turning into a cluster of incomplete patterns at the end. In the center of the pattern is a black metal block, which, judging from the remaining details, looks like a leaping flame, or something else, but it is now difficult to distinguish.

The chair is made of a heavy, dark wood. If it weren't for the natural wood grain, it would look more like metal, and it feels like ice to the touch.

All four legs are curled feet, and one of them is noticeably shorter, only half the length of the other three.

The gaps were jagged, as if they had been forcibly broken by some brute force.

The marks on the damaged area, in terms of color, material, and texture, are exactly the same as those on broken wood.

Zheng Que picked up the wood chips and tentatively pressed them against the surface.

Click...

The two parts merged instantly, and the broken chair leg seemed to grow longer, fitting perfectly with the broken wood without any gaps, as if they were one.

Zheng Que nodded slightly as he watched this scene.

This piece of wood was indeed the missing part of the broken leg of his crippled armchair.

Unfortunately, this is just a fragment. His armchair is not yet truly complete. After the broken wood is pieced together, the missing leg will still be about the size of a palm short before it is level with the other chair legs.

While pondering, Zheng Que flipped the chair over and sat down again.

However, unlike before, as soon as he sat down in the chair this time, he immediately felt as if an inexplicable power had appeared within him, and his control over the dilapidated palace in front of him had also been greatly strengthened.

Zheng Que had some doubts in his heart. After thinking for a moment, he turned to the second page of the Book of Life and Death.

Looking at Gao Yinxia's name on this page, a thought stirred within me.

The next moment, Gao Yinxia appeared in the hall.

At this moment, Gao Yinxia was still in a daze, her eyes glazed over, just like before.

Immediately afterwards, Zheng Que turned to the first page of the Book of Life and Death and looked at one of the names.

As his thoughts shifted, another figure appeared below the hall.

The figure was dressed as a servant, dressed in very festive clothes, with a silk flower the size of an egg in his hair, and carrying a large red lantern with the character "囍" written on it.

At this moment, the little ghost had its eyes closed and remained motionless, as if it were asleep.

This is a lantern-carrying servant who was originally part of the ghost bride's wedding procession.

However, later, Shujiabao was absorbed by the underworld, and this lantern-carrying servant, along with the other ghosts in the ghost wedding procession, was also sucked into the Tongue-Pulling Hell...

Zheng Que nodded slightly as he summoned the human and the ghost from the Tongue-Pulling Hell.

Now, he can summon any soul in the underworld, whether human or ghost, with just a thought.

and……

In a flash, Zheng Que looked at the ghostly servant, and as his gaze fell upon him, a piece of information immediately surfaced in his mind...

"Species Talent: Lighting the Way with a Lantern".

"Ghostly Skill: [Stealing the Red Phoenix]"

"Yin techniques: None."

"Underworld official position: None".
