Cultivating Immortality from the Book of Life and Death

Chapter 460 Yin and Yang Confusion. (Second Update!)

Who is my master?
Zheng Que was taken aback upon hearing this.

Could it be that Song Jiaoyin mistook him for a ghost?

Of course, there's another possibility: Song Jiaoyin can no longer distinguish between ghosts and living people!
At this moment, in his field of vision, Song Jiaoyin in front of him, along with the two subordinates behind her, were all enveloped in a halo of light that was mostly black and mostly white. The black light was so strong that it made the white light feel suffocated, and it was still slowly growing.

Three fair faces were shrouded in a murky shadow, and their beautiful brows were filled with gloom.

Especially Song Jiaoyin, whose bright and beautiful appearance on the snow mountain now exudes a faint chill, and at first glance, she looks like a female ghost walking in broad daylight.

In general, the level of Yin energy emanating from these three female cultivators was even more intense than that of Yan Dong, whom they had encountered in the pharmacy!

After a moment's thought, Zheng Que didn't answer the question. Instead, he transmitted his voice to Xue Shuangzi beside him and said, "You talk to her. First, use ghost language and ask her if you can exchange clues."

Xue Shuangzi nodded and immediately did as she was told. She looked at Song Jiaoyin and said in a cold voice, "Can you exchange clues?"

Upon hearing this, Song Jiaoyin seemed to finally understand the question and immediately replied, "Okay."

"However, I hope that your ghost servants can behave themselves."

"Otherwise, I will not hold back!"

Ok?
Xue Shuangzi's Ghost Servant?

Could Song Jiaoyin be referring to herself?
Zheng Que was stunned for a moment, then immediately confirmed his guess.

This Song Jiaoyin can no longer distinguish between the aura of a living person and a ghost!

To be precise, the other party can no longer understand the words of living people, but can understand the words of ghosts!

Thinking of this, Zheng Que subconsciously raised his left hand.

He was holding the soul-summoning banner in his right hand and seemed to be holding something in his left hand as well, but after making this gesture, he looked down and saw that his left hand was empty, with nothing in it.

Looking around, apart from Song Jiaoyin and the other two in front of him, the only other person on the wide, open street was Xue Shuangzi standing beside him.

There was no other trace of them.

The neatly paved bluestone underfoot was swept clean, with not a single other object on it.

Zheng Que frowned, feeling a strange sensation in his heart, as if he had just lost something.

But upon closer examination, I was completely baffled and had no clue what to do.

At this moment, Song Jiaoyin's voice rang out again: "Without further ado, I have now obtained a fragment of the 'Law' within this 'strange' thing."

"If you want to exchange clues with me, you must offer clues of equal value."

Fragments of "law"...

really!

Zheng Que was not surprised. This Song Jiaoyin was probably one of the first cultivators to enter the "strange" place and had indeed grasped many clues that he did not yet know.

Thinking of this, Zheng Que immediately sent a telepathic message to Xue Shuangzi, describing in detail the origin of this "strange" place, and asked her to try to exchange the information about the market for the fragments of "law" from Song Jiaoyin.

Xue Shuangzi had absolutely no interest in that so-called "law" or the origin of this "strange" place.

But remembering that she was working for that great being in the underworld, she quickly nodded enthusiastically and immediately repeated Zheng Que's instructions to Song Jiaoyin the origin of this "strange" phenomenon verbatim: "This 'strange' phenomenon originated from the imperial court's previous attempt to bring Xue Tong Pass under its jurisdiction... Later... the seal was triggered... and all the living people disappeared without a trace..."

After listening to Xue Shuangzi's explanation, Song Jiaoyin nodded seriously and immediately said, "This should be fragmented information from 'seeing'. You can exchange clues with me."

"The fragment I obtained is 'listening'!"

“For example, the ghost servant beside you is currently communicating with you in ghost language.” “I can hear what it is saying very clearly.”

"However, I don't understand ghost language, so I don't know what you, my ghost servant, are saying."

what! ?

Can Song Jiaoyin hear my telepathic message now?

Zheng Que was immediately startled, but he quickly realized the problem.

Song Jiaoyin could hear his telepathic communication, but she mistook human speech for ghostly language!

On the contrary, Xue Shuangzi, a genuine ghost, could clearly hear what the other party said!
Is Song Jiaoyin going to become a ghost?
Besides these, what other fragments of "seeing" are there?

Fragments of "listening"?

Judging from their names, both of these fragments are related to the five senses!
When they first arrived at this "strange" entrance, the Foundation Establishment Peak rogue cultivator who claimed to have come to Blood Pass to seek an opportunity to form the Core Formation told them about information related to the Five Senses.

Thinking of this, Zheng Que frowned. It seemed that Yin Congyi, besides him, also knew the source of this "strange" phenomenon!
Are the fragments of "seeing" on Yin Congyi's side?
So, did Yan Dong also obtain a fragment?
In a flash, Zheng Li immediately transmitted his voice to Xue Shuangzi again: "Ask her if there are five fragments of 'Law' in this 'strange thing'?"

"What fragments did Yan Dong, the examinee from Yinshan Prefecture in Hengzhou, obtain?"

Without hesitation, Xue Shuangzi immediately repeated the story to Song Jiaoyin, mimicking her words exactly.

Song Jiaoyin frowned slightly as she listened, then raised the ivory fan in her hand, pointed it at Zheng Que from a distance, and said in a cold voice, "The two questions you asked are very important."

"If you absolutely must know, then..."

"I want your ghost servant!"

As she spoke, Song Jiaoyin stared intently at Zheng Que.

Ok?
Zheng Que was taken aback for a moment, then smiled easily.

If Song Jiaoyin were to ask him for Xue Shuangzi's "Rouge Demon" hairpin, he would definitely not agree.

But now the other party wants him... so why refuse?
So Zheng Que immediately sent a telepathic message to Xue Shuangzi: "You can agree to her request, but ask her a few more questions."

"How many people have entered this 'strange' place in total?"

"The other one is, are there any fragments of 'Law' left?"

Xue Shuangzi immediately did as instructed, saying to Song Jiaoyin, "No problem!"

"However, I have two more questions."

"How many people have entered this 'strange' place now?"

"Do the fragments of 'Law' still exist?"

"You answered all of these questions."

"Then, the transaction can proceed!"

Upon hearing this, Song Jiaoyin seemed to think highly of Zheng Que, the ghost servant. Even though Xue Shuangzi asked two more questions, she nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay!"

“There are twelve fragments of ‘Law’ in total.”

"The fragments on Yan Dong's side should be the 'tongue'."
