Cultivating Immortality from the Book of Life and Death

Chapter 468 The Three-Headed Law Demon. (First Update!)

Hearing this, Zheng Que frowned slightly, immediately realizing that his three memory errors stemmed from two reasons: one was due to the missing fragments of Le Jingxuan's memory, another was due to an attack by a "strange" entity, and the last...

As Song Jiaoyin just said, by piecing together the three fragments, one can slightly utilize the power of "Law".

Unsurprisingly, this is the effect of the opponent's incomplete "law"!

Despite already having a guess in his mind, Zheng Que still asked, "What about my ghost servant's memories?"

Song Jiaoyin hesitated, seemingly unwilling to answer, but after glancing at the soul-summoning banner in Zheng Que's hand, she finally replied, "The 'five senses' constantly receiving knowledge from the outside world eventually form a person's memories."

Different memories lead to different perceptions.

"The 'law' I'm piecing together now can change the perception of the target."

"However, my current understanding of 'rules' is not yet complete."

"Therefore, when using it, there is a prerequisite, and the perception of the target cannot be fabricated out of thin air."

“For example, when I used this ‘law’ on you just now, I couldn’t directly change your perception and make you see me as your master.”

"I can only switch my identity with that of the female cultivator I believe to be your master, within your own perception..."

"Furthermore, this change in perception has a time limit."

Change perception...

Zheng Li immediately noted this point. He had just taken Song Jiaoyin as his ghost servant. In essence, it wasn't that his memory was faulty, but rather that his perception of his ghost servant had been altered by the other party's "law"!
Furthermore, the fact that he was able to control the other party using the [Ghost Control Technique] indicates that the effect of that "law" not only alters the cultivator's perception but also affects the cultivator's spells.

However, the other party's "law" is currently incomplete and seems to have significant flaws.

Because his perception had been altered, he mistook the other party for his ghost servant, and as a result, his [Ghost Control Technique] was actually able to be used on it.

Under normal circumstances, his [Ghost Control Technique] cannot forcibly control his real ghost servants, but it can forcibly control this Song Jiaoyin!
This is not actually the power of the [Ghost Control Technique], but rather the power of the opponent's "Law".

The reason the other party is currently under his control is not because he is being suppressed by the [Ghost Control Technique], but because the other party is being controlled by his own "law"!
More importantly, the other party doesn't seem to be able to change his perception back yet; he can only stall for time and wait for the effect of the "law" to disappear on its own...

"Modify perception..."

"This 'law,' when truly put into practice, should be extremely terrifying!"

"But her 'rule' is not yet complete."

"Therefore, it has significant drawbacks and its use is also limited."

"but……"

Thinking of this, Zheng Que frowned, realizing a big problem.

Back when we were at Wanshan Temple, there were three fragments of the “Law”: “Marriage”, “Path”, and “Life and Death”.

He received "marriage"; Chen Zhentao of Xuanyuan Pavilion received "the path of cultivation"; and Meng Yao, the "law demon," received "life and death"...

However, neither he nor Chen Zhentao could use the power of "Law" with only a fragment.

Only Mengyao, despite possessing an incomplete "Law," was still able to freely wield its power...

This Song Jiaoyin is now surrounded by a thick layer of yin energy, the swirling black light almost completely engulfing the white light, making her nearly indistinguishable from a true ghost, and even blurring the lines between living and dead. More importantly, she can also use incomplete "laws"...

Perhaps the idea that piecing together the three fragments allows one to wield the power of "law"... is wrong!

The real reason why the opponent can use the power of "Law" is that the opponent is being eroded by the fragments and is about to become a "Law Demon"!

In addition to Song Jiaoyin, Liao Zhanbo, the rogue cultivator who claimed to have come to Xue Tong Pass to seek the opportunity to form a core, seems to have successfully pieced together four fragments. He may already be a "Law Ghost"!
And Yan Dong.

Yan Dong entered this "strange" place at the same time as Song Jiaoyin, and his situation is probably not much better than Song Jiaoyin's...

If my guess is correct, then there will be at least three "law ghosts" in this "strange" place!
Three-headed "Law Demon"...

This is far more terrifying than the Wanshan Temple from back then!
Thinking of this, Zheng Que quickly asked, "What are Liao Zhanbo's 'law' and Yan Dong's 'law'?"

Song Jiaoyin suddenly exhaled a breath of stale air, and her gaze towards Zheng Que became deep and unfathomable.

Click, click...

The four bloody skulls that had been controlling Song Jiaoyin's two subordinates suddenly detached on their own and fell to the ground, as if they had lost the support of the magic.

The two older female cultivators slowly rose to their feet, their icy gazes fixed on Zheng Que.

Beneath their feet, the four fallen, bloodied skulls rotted rapidly, turning into a pool of foul-smelling blood that seeped into the floor tiles in the blink of an eye.

In Zheng Que's view, Song Jiaoyin and her two subordinates had become noticeably more Yin, and there was hardly any trace of Yang energy left.

A dark aura surrounded them, making their fair faces appear even more sinister.

Zheng Que frowned slightly, and his memories of his true ghost servant suddenly became clear!

The effect of the opponent's "law" has ended!
Right now, his [Ghost Control Technique] can no longer control the other party!

Thinking this, Zheng Li was about to make a move, but the next moment...

Step, step, step...

Dense and chaotic footsteps came from all directions.

A crowd has appeared in this market!

Zheng Que frowned, and without any hesitation, immediately used the [Phantom Escape Technique] to escape into a nearby wine shop that sold spirit wine.

In the blink of an eye, he landed inside the wine shop. Looking back, he saw Song Jiaoyin and the other two standing steadily in place, showing no intention of finding a place to hide.

Moreover, although the footsteps on the street grew louder and closer, there were no other figures in sight.

Zheng Li immediately realized something was wrong. Just as he was about to leave, he saw Song Jiaoyin give him a sinister smile, and then wave her wide sleeve...

boom!
The distillery doors slammed shut in an instant.

Seeing himself locked in this unfamiliar shop, Zheng Que's face darkened. Just as he was about to try to push the door open, gushing blood flowed out from the crack in the tightly closed door first.

A bone-chilling cold descended suddenly, enveloping the entire distillery, as if immersing him entirely in a thousand-year-old icy pool.
