Cultivating Immortality from the Book of Life and Death

Chapter 485 Yin Congyi. (Second update!)

Seeing this, Zheng Que frowned and immediately realized that the fourth character that had appeared in his mind was almost complete, but right now, the number of strokes in the fourth character suddenly began to decrease.

The unfamiliar boy's figure, who seemed to be coming back to life, was vying for his fourth fragment!

Moreover, the fragments inside this "strange" place seem to have originally belonged to these phantoms who were sitting in the five seats. Once one fragment returns, the other party will not only "come back to life," but he will also find it difficult to obtain the remaining fragments.

In a flash, Zheng Que immediately dispelled the illusion he had cast on Yin Congyi, and at the same time, he fully activated his "Law" and used it on the unfamiliar young cultivator.

The next moment, the unfamiliar young cultivator's eyes had just cleared, and a withered yellow bamboo stick appeared in his hand.

On the bamboo stick, there is a line of words written in a flamboyant style: "Wanting to cross the Yellow River, the ice blocks the river; wanting to climb Mount Taihang, the snow covers the mountain."

The moment the unfamiliar young cultivator saw the inscription, his body stiffened abruptly, all his movements freezing in place, as if he had fallen into an illusion.

But soon, Zheng Que realized something was wrong.

The amount of true essence he consumed when using "Law" on this unfamiliar young cultivator was enormous, even exceeding the total amount he used on Liao Zhanbo and the other three.

Feeling his true essence surging out like a burst dam, Zheng Que knew that if this continued, it wouldn't be long before all his true essence was exhausted!

At the same time, Yin Congyi had already rushed to the figure that looked exactly like him.

The moment he stepped off the armchair, the fragments on his body disappeared. Originally, he would have lost all his memories of the "strange" things, but now, with the blessing of the [Sacrifice of Life and Death Technique], he had not forgotten his purpose. He immediately punched the head of the figure in front of him that looked like a twin.

boom!
The figure that looked exactly like Yin Congyi had its head smashed in an instant.

Blood-red and snow-white spray shot from the roof beams, then burst forth like fireworks.

The figure that looked exactly like Yin Congyi immediately began to dissipate. As it disappeared, a faint aura drifted out, first heading towards Liao Zhanbo's direction.

But soon, this aura was attracted by the [Sacrifice of Life and Death Technique] on Yin Congyi's body, and immediately changed direction, turning towards Yin Congyi.

The [Sacrifice of Essence and Prosperity Technique] involves burning the caster's primordial spirit, lifespan, yang energy, and even fundamental essence to achieve a rapid increase in strength within a short period of time.

At this moment, the figure that looked exactly like Yin Congyi was originally formed from Yin Congyi's foundational essence.

In other words, after Yin Congyi successfully performed his magic, he was pre-selected as one of the sacrificial offerings.

Therefore, after it was shattered, it would naturally be drawn to Yin Congyi's [Sacrifice to the Origin of Life and Death Technique].

Of course, if Liao Zhanbo were in a conscious state now, he could use the technique of enslaving ghost servants to seize this part of Yin Congyi's resources.

The problem is that Liao Zhanbo is currently trapped in an illusion and has no idea about the situation in reality, so how can he control the two figures beside him?

At this moment, Yin Congyi seized the opportunity and quickly took out a pill from his storage bag at his waist.

It was the Foundation Establishment Pill that I had taken out before!

Now that he has used the [Sacrifice of Vital Energy and Prosperity Technique], not only has his vital energy been depleted, but his lifespan is also about to be exhausted. In this situation, the only way to survive is to immediately build a foundation and enter the Foundation Establishment stage!
Of course, he has not yet obtained the complete "Laws", so it is impossible for him to build a Heavenly Dao Foundation.

However, he had just regained his foundation, the Earth-grade Dao Foundation, and there were no problems with it.

Just as Yin Congyi was about to swallow the Foundation Establishment Pill, Zheng Que immediately turned his head, his gaze sharp as lightning, and looked at him. This Yin Congyi had just lost his own fragment, but now, after shattering the figure beside Liao Zhanbo that looked just like him, he had, under the effect of the [Sacrifice of Essence and Withering Technique], seized another fragment!

As expected of a descendant of the Duke of Dingguo's family, the other party's luck and judgment are indeed outstanding.

We must not allow the opponent to establish their foundation!
Although Yin Congyi has already used the [Sacrifice to the Origin and Wither] technique, he will be able to recover from the state of the [Sacrifice to the Origin and Wither] once he successfully establishes his foundation.

At that time, Zheng Que will not only have to suppress Liao Zhanbo, Song Jiaoyin, Yan Dong, and that unfamiliar young cultivator, but will also have to add Yin Congyi, an enemy with an unknown number of trump cards.

Thinking of this, Zheng Que immediately opened the Soul Nourishing Bag. A streak of blood-red light escaped from the bag and quickly transformed into a figure with a brightly colored dress, beautiful features, and a chilling aura. It was Xue Shuangzi.

Xue Shuangzi's aura was slightly weak at the moment, obviously she had not fully recovered from the side effects of the [Spirit Descent Technique], but as an "evil spirit" at the eighth level of [Scissors Prison], this weakness was insignificant.

She stopped beside Zheng Que, glanced around, and her gaze quickly locked onto Yin Congyi.

At this moment, in this main hall, Liao Zhanbo, Song Jiaoyin, and Yan Dong were all shrouded in yin energy and their bodies were filled with black smoke, making them look more like ghosts than living people. As a ghost, Xue Shuangzi had no interest in them whatsoever.

In contrast, Yin Congyi is now brimming with yang energy, like a beacon in the darkness, and is the only living person in the area besides Zheng Que.

"Don't let him build his foundation!" Zheng Li immediately ordered.

Upon hearing this, Xue Shuangzi revealed a delighted smile and, without the slightest hesitation, charged directly at Yin Congyi.

boom! !

The next moment, just as Yin Congyi put the Foundation Establishment Pill to his lips, his body was pushed backward by a tremendous force and crashed heavily into the wall next to him.

"Wow!"

Yin Congyi felt his blood surging in his chest, a sweet taste in his throat, and immediately spat out a mouthful of purplish-black blood, his face turning deathly pale.

His true cultivation level was only at the peak of the ninth level of Qi Refining, but at this moment, with the blessing of the [Sacrifice Yuan Withering and Flourishing Technique], his aura had entered the Foundation Establishment stage.

Even so, facing this "evil spirit" at the eighth level of the [Scissors Prison], even though it is currently in a weakened state, it is still no match for it!

Having landed a successful blow, Xue Shuangzi showed no sign of giving the survivors a chance to breathe, and with a flash, she charged forward again.

Upon seeing this scene, Yin Congyi did not hesitate and immediately turned to look at Yan Dong and Song Jiaoyin, who were still sitting in the armchair.

I have just fallen into a vivid and unfathomable illusion, and now I see that Yan Dong and Song Jiaoyin are probably in the same situation.

If one-on-one isn't enough, then it'll be three against one!

In a flash, Yin Congyi reached into his storage pouch at his waist and immediately took out two jade talismans. They were radiant with light and exuded pure spiritual energy, making them distinct from ordinary talismans.

This is a [Dispelling Illusion Talisman] specially made by the talisman master served by the Duke of Dingguo's mansion.

Illusions below the Core Formation stage can all be broken!
