Cultivating Immortality from the Book of Life and Death

Chapter 51: Undispatched. (Second update!)

Underground secret room.

Zheng Que and Qingli finished their discussion and without any hesitation, he cut open the wound again, allowing the spiritual blood to flow again from the wound that had already formed a thin scab, and continued to perform the [Ghost Controlling Technique].

At the same time, Qingli's red eyes were fixed on the body of the woman holding the umbrella hidden under the umbrella.

The spiritual blood floated in the air, turning into a blood mist that surrounded the woman holding the umbrella. Under the stimulation of the magic formula, the blood mist floated up and down, gradually transforming into countless fine runes.

The first spiritual blood rune shot out and branded the woman holding the umbrella.

The woman holding the umbrella stood quietly there, blood dripping from the umbrella.

Whoosh!
The next moment, the spiritual blood rune was imprinted on the blood-colored umbrella.

Just like before, the spirit blood rune was about to slide down as soon as it touched the umbrella surface. However, at this moment, the yin energy in Qingli's eyes leaped, and a rune that looked like a fish and an insect emerged, which was exactly the same as the "Yi" character on the token hanging around her waist.

Immediately afterwards, the whole body of the woman holding the umbrella trembled, and the soul-blood rune that was about to slide down instantly sank and remained firmly on the umbrella.

Seeing that this method was effective, Zheng Que became more spirited, and the spells in his hands kept changing. The second spirit blood rune was once again branded towards the woman holding the umbrella.

This spiritual blood rune was also branded on the umbrella of the woman holding the umbrella. The bright red umbrella surface instantly turned black, and the red dress originally worn by the back figure under the umbrella also turned into a black dress in an instant.

Runes danced in Qingli's eyes, and the word "服" was faintly heard.

The changes of the woman holding the umbrella stopped immediately. The black silk umbrella turned into a blood-red umbrella again, and the black color on her skirt quickly faded away, returning to her red dress.

The second soul blood rune imprint was successful!

Zheng Que's hands kept chanting magic spells, and the third, fourth, and fifth runes were successively imprinted on the umbrella.

The already weak Yin energy in the umbrella-holding woman became even thinner, and the speed of her switching methods also slowed down significantly. More and more runes were branded into her body.

Gradually, the blood stopped dripping from the bright red silk umbrella. The blood color disappeared quickly like a dried-up river, revealing the original black color. The crimson dress also lost its blood color and returned to a dark-colored dress.

"Woooooooo..."

A faint sobbing sound came from under the umbrella. The sobbing of the woman holding the umbrella was subtle and resentful, containing an extremely strong sorrow. Zheng Que inexplicably began to soften his heart and wanted to give up enslaving the other party.

But as soon as this thought arose, he immediately woke up. This was an attack on his mind!
Zheng Que's hand gestures immediately increased in speed.

The blood mist transformed from the spiritual blood rolled in the air, like a series of blood beads, turning into runes that rushed into the body of the woman holding the umbrella.

With the branding of the last soul-blood rune, the woman holding the umbrella stopped crying and let out a whine filled with despair and unwillingness. Her figure disappeared in an instant, and the black umbrella fell to the ground without support, supported by the old umbrella handle. It turned half a circle on the spot and then stopped moving.

[Ghost Controlling Technique] was successfully performed!
Zheng Que didn't hesitate and immediately opened his palm and pointed at the black umbrella: "Close!"

The black silk umbrella turned into a streak of blood light and sank into his palm.

Feeling the icy air in his palm, Zheng Que was certain in his heart that he had obtained the second ghost servant!

However, this "evil spirit" is now very weak. He originally planned to use it to test the use of the fourth bag, but in the current situation, compared to a bag, the ghost servant itself is more important.

Thinking of this, Zheng Que glanced at the bronze tripod covered with rust. In this secret room, of all the valuable things, the only one left was this alchemy furnace, which he had not taken away.

Considering that it was already late and it was inconvenient to travel at night, Zheng Cheng immediately said to Qingli, "Qingli, protect me tonight. We will set off for Taiping County early tomorrow morning."

His current cultivation level is only at the second level of Qi training, and it is too risky for him to survive in the wild for a long time.

In comparison, Taiping County, where many monks are in charge, is the best place for him to go now.

Qingli snorted coldly, and the figure hanging on the door frame suddenly turned half a circle and faced him with its back.

Zheng Que walked to the table on the stone platform and sat down cross-legged.

Among the four jade slips just now, he still had [Pure Yang Technique] and [Blood Gang Technique] to practice.

Both of these techniques required the second level of Qi training to learn, and his current level already met the requirements. In addition, he also needed to find time to delve into the basic skills of alchemy, talisman making, and tool casting found in the fourth jade slip...

Thinking of this, Zheng Que immediately decided to solve the problem of [Evil Shadow Play] first, and then practice [Pure Yang Technique] and [Blood Gang Technique]. As for refining pills, making talismans, and casting tools, he did not have the materials now, so he could only think of a way after arriving in Taiping County.

While thinking, he collected his thoughts and began to practice the [Seed of Life Technique].

The spiritual energy wrapped in Yin Qi was continuously absorbed into his body. Zheng Que's face gradually turned pale and his body temperature dropped rapidly. Unknowingly, he opened his eyes and found himself in the underworld.

Black energy rolled out from between his eyebrows and poured into the [Book of Life and Death] in front of him.

Zheng Que didn't waste any time and immediately turned to the third page of the [Book of Life and Death]. Just as he was about to summon [Evil Shadow Play], he saw that the record of [Evil Shadow Play] had changed...

"Category: Evil."

"Species: Evil Shadow Play."

"Real name: None."

"Native Place: Xuetongguan."

"Lifespan in the Yin: Nine hundred and fifty years."

"Yin Duty: Yin Cha (cannot be transferred)."

"Term of office: half a decade."

Zheng Que frowned at the words "Not Deployable." What was going on?

Why can't I dispatch the ghost messenger that I appointed suddenly?
※※※

The mountains and rivers are towering, and hundreds of ghosts roam at night.

Dark green phosphorescent lights flickered in the forest, and the dark energy was swirling, as if a ghost had descended.

Suddenly, many ghosts seemed to sense something and scattered like birds and beasts in an instant, running away as fast as they could.

Amidst the chaos, [Evil Shadow Play] shrank its body to a size of about ten feet, almost clinging to the mountain as it flew at full speed towards the direction of Xuetong Pass.

As soon as the breath of the high-level ghost was leaked a little, the nearby ghosts fled in all directions as if the end of the world had come.

[Evil Shadow Play] ignored the other ghosts and monks along the way and fled for a whole day and night!
Now we are tens of thousands of miles away from that inconspicuous human town.

But it still feels uneasy.

The aura of that existence is really too terrifying!
It felt that even if its cultivation level was raised by several levels, it would still be like a mayfly facing the sky in front of that person, and would have no power to resist at all!

therefore……

"That human cultivator's cultivation is too low. This sinner knows of a rare treasure at Xuetong Pass that can aid his cultivation."

"The criminal slave is not running away. He is going to get medicine for that human cultivator."

"That precious plant will take about five hundred years to mature, so the criminal slave will have to guard it there for five hundred years..."

[Evil Shadow Play] deliberately spoke loudly while flying away quickly.

It repeats these words every few distance.

This is to prevent himself from not escaping far enough and being caught again by that existence, so that he will have a reason to clear his name.

Of course, the best thing would be to escape directly...
