Cultivating Immortality from the Book of Life and Death

Chapter 507, Article Two. (Second update!)

reality.

The main hall of the Yuwen Mansion.

Zheng Que opened his eyes and saw an empty house.

The cracks that Liao Zhanbo had blown open earlier had disappeared, and the hole above had been restored to its original state. Sunlight shone in from the doorway, and the restored lake stones cast long, narrow shadows on the ground.

The rustling of leaves and trees, hidden among the trees, gave the "strange" scene a sense of tranquility.

Zheng Que withdrew his gaze and looked back into the room. Of the original five seats, four had disappeared without a trace, leaving only the armchair he was sitting in.

Standing beside her was Xue Shuangzi, who was tidying her skirt. At this moment, Xue Shuangzi was surrounded by yin energy and there was not a trace of fire in her eyes. She looked like she had completely returned to normal.

Upon seeing this, Zheng Que immediately asked, "How are you feeling now?"

Xue Shuangzi smoothed out the wrinkles on her skirt, her face full of menace, and replied fiercely, "It's alright for now."

"The incense in that incense burner was actually poisonous!"

"If I encounter that cultivator again, I will definitely kill him!"

The incense in the incense burner?
Zheng Que was slightly taken aback, then immediately said, "Tell me everything that just happened."

Xue Shuangzi nodded and quickly recounted in detail how she obtained the incense burner and the Qingyang Lamp.

After listening, Zheng Que frowned and realized that Xue Shuangzi's condition was clearly due to her eating those three black incense sticks.

Those three incense sticks are most likely related to Yin Congyi's master.

Even if Xue Shuangzi were only in the [Scissors Prison] now, she still wouldn't be able to withstand Yan Bingyi's methods, even if she were in the [Iron Tree Prison].

Fortunately, Yan Bingyi no longer had a physical body and was in a very bad state.

Furthermore, having acted on behalf of Yin Congyi this time, they likely won't have the resources to seek revenge in the short term...

While pondering, Zheng Que then asked, "Are those three incense sticks still inside you?"

Xue Shuangzi nodded immediately: "Yes!"

Upon hearing this, Zheng Que's expression immediately turned serious. He had just dragged Xue Shuangzi into the underworld once. If the attack was a normal method, it would have been completely eliminated during the process of him enhancing her cultivation.

However, it wasn't Yan Bingyi who actively used that method on Xue Shuangzi; rather, it was Xue Shuangzi's own greed that led her to stuff everything into her mouth...

Now, Yan Bingyi's three black incense sticks are still inside Xue Shuangzi's body. If Yan Bingyi makes trouble again in the future, Xue Shuangzi will most likely be in trouble again!
After a few moments of thought, Zheng Que asked again, "Can I vomit it out?"

Xue Shuangzi immediately shook her head and said, "I can't spit it out. I've already tried."

As she spoke, in front of Zheng Que, she flicked out a long, sharp-edged armor and slashed it cleanly and decisively down towards her chest.

The long, sharp armor instantly tore through the dress formed from yin energy, and the chest and abdomen beneath it were also ripped open as if made of paper.

Xue Shuangzi grabbed her dissected body with both hands and pulled it to the sides as if taking off an outer garment, revealing her neatly arranged internal organs.

However, these internal organs are located in the opposite position to those of a normal person. Unlike the colorful organs of a living person, they are pure black and show no signs of life or movement, exuding a strong sense of death.

She reached inside, pulled out her stomach, and held it in front of Zheng Que. With a swift motion, she ripped it open, revealing an empty stomach filled with nothing but a wisp of black, gloomy energy. The moment it appeared, the surrounding temperature dropped drastically, and a layer of dark gray frost covered the ground.

Xue Shuangzi pointed to her stomach and said, "Not only can I not vomit up those three incense sticks, but I can't even find any trace of them!"

"But in my perception, those three incense sticks are inside my body."

"I've already checked every part of my body, but I still can't find it." Looking at this gruesome scene, Zheng Que coughed and immediately replied, "Put the internal organs away first."

"Those three incense sticks, if we can't find them, we can't find them."

"However, you will stay by my side for the rest of the time."

“My ‘law’ can restrain the person who attacks you…”

Upon hearing this, Xue Shuangzi nodded. Although Zheng Que's method of saving her was a bit strange, it was indeed effective.

In addition, the great being in the underworld boosted her cultivation twice this time.

According to Lady Mu Xiangu, this was a reward bestowed upon her by that lord because she participated in the mission.

If she performs a few more merits and receives more rewards from that lord, her cultivation will soon break through the [Iron Tree Prison], or even go higher!

At that time, the issue of incense sticks will be no big deal at all!

Thinking of this, Xue Shuangzi readily agreed, "Okay."

After resolving Xue Shuangzi's matter, Zheng Que immediately sat up from the armchair.

The moment his body left the armchair, the seat vanished in an instant, just like the other four seats, disappearing completely as if it had never existed.

Looking around, the spacious main hall was empty and simple, with not a single chair.

Zheng Que stood still, closed his eyes, and wanted to change the order of the fragments again, just like before.

However, he tried for a long time without success.

Seeing this, Zheng Que immediately gave up and began to continue studying the new "law" he had just acquired.

After conducting several tests, he quickly discovered that this newly discovered "law" was neither Song Jiaoyin's alteration of memory and cognition, nor Liao Zhanbo's closure of the five senses.

Furthermore, this new "law" cannot be applied to thin air; it requires a target to be tested.

So Zheng Que immediately called Xue Shuangzi to take the test with him.

The main hall, which had just fallen silent, was suddenly filled with indistinct noises again, mixed with varying breaths.

After testing for a while, Zheng Que put his arm around Xue Shuangzi and pressed her against the corner of the wall. His chest was still heaving, but his expression was very strange.

We've finally figured out all the effects of this new "law"...

This new "rule" can amplify the five senses!

Of course, this "enlargement" does not mean that the range of perception of the five senses has expanded, but rather...

"Um..."

Xue Shuangzi's originally pale face was now flushed red, her expression was dazed and confused, and she unconsciously let out a soft and charming cry.

Yes, this new "law" is pieced together from his original "law".

Therefore, this new "law" cannot be used alone.

Its true effect is that, when his original "law" takes effect, it amplifies the senses of his "companion"...

This is a useless "law"!
It's of no use at all!
