Cultivating Immortality from the Book of Life and Death

Chapter 67: The Yin-Exorcising Pill. (Third update!)

Next, Li Lian went on to talk about a lot of basic common sense about ghosts.

Among them, the "vengeful souls" in the [Tongue-Pulling Prison] basically only master one or two ghost skills or Yin techniques.

Ghosts that master more than three ghost skills and Yin magic are very rare, and they are usually not "vengeful spirits", but "sly", "evil", "evil"...

However, apart from the "vengeful spirits", the special ghosts such as "weird", "evil", "evil"... are basically impossible to capture.

Therefore, although there are transactions of ghost servants in the offering market, the prices of high-quality ghost servants and low-quality ghost servants vary greatly, which can be said to be a world of difference.

The most important factor in determining the quality of a ghost servant is the Yin techniques and ghost skills that he possesses.

The second is the degree of domestication...

Under normal circumstances, when the "vengeful soul" has just been refined into a ghost servant, the degree of domestication is very low. At this time, the master can only use magic to make it execute very simple instructions.

Moreover, once the master is in danger or falls into a very weak state, the ghost servant will retaliate without hesitation, eat the master, and regain his freedom!

In contrast, ghost servants with a higher degree of domestication can, to a certain extent, understand more complex instructions from their masters.

When their masters are in danger, ghost servants with a higher degree of taming are safer and will not immediately retaliate...

As for how to improve the degree of domestication, Li Lian did not say. I wonder if he was unwilling to tell him, or if the other party himself did not know?

The last point is the ghost servant’s adaptability to yang energy.

The so-called adaptability means that some ghosts are very powerful and extremely ferocious before being refined into ghost servants, but after being refined into ghost servants, their strength becomes very ordinary and they are no longer as ferocious as before.

This is because the techniques used to refine ghost servants will suppress the ghost servants' yin energy, making it difficult for them to exert their true strength.

This is also the reason why ghost servants are generally unable to defeat lonely ghosts at the same level.

Ghost servants with stronger adaptability can retain more of their original strength.

Generally speaking, ghosts that often appear during the day are more adaptable to Yang energy; while ghosts that only appear at night are less adaptable to Yang energy...

Zheng Cheng carefully wrote down the information Li Lian said. His Qingli and Ku Lan were completely different from the ghost servants the other party had mentioned.

Not to mention the lonely ghosts of the same realm, even if it is a ghost that is one level higher than his ghost servant, Qingli and Kulan can defeat it!
In addition, his two ghost servants now have intelligence, and even if he does not use the [Ghost Controlling Technique], they can execute various complex commands.

Li Lian quickly finished explaining all the information. He didn't mention any so-called ghost servant raising techniques at all, and even the method of breaking through the fourth level of Qi training was as good as nothing...

Zheng Que gradually realized that he seemed to have been cheated of the small half of the spirit stone he had just given!
However, the few pieces of information that the other party accidentally mentioned were indeed useful to him...

At this moment, the two turned into an alley, and the voices around them suddenly became sparse.

Zheng Que had walked past this place yesterday and knew this was Yangjia Lane. It seemed like most of the families in the lane had the surname Yang. At this moment, most people were still asleep, and only sporadic sounds of movement could be heard. Behind the courtyard walls on either side grew several large, lush poplar trees, their crowns intertwined, shrouding the entire lane in a rich, green canopy.

Just a few dozen feet into the alley, there was a low toilet with the door ajar.

Li Lian took the lead and pushed the door open. As soon as he entered, a strong smell of medicine mixed with the turbid breath of a dying person hit him in the face. He couldn't help but frowned slightly, quickened his pace, and walked into the inner room.

The inner room was dim, unlit, with only a hint of natural light filtering through the mulberry paper covering the back window, illuminating the room hazily. In the rough outline, one could make out a gray-haired, haggard old man lying on a bed draped with a half-worn curtain.

The old man had sparse hair and was as shriveled as vegetables exposed to the sun. His ivory robe, which was only half new, was loosely wrapped around his body. His hands were placed outside the patched quilt. Because he was too thin, his palms were cramped like chicken claws, and his nails and skin color had obviously begun to darken.

His whole body was weak, like a candle in the wind. His subtle breathing would turn into long rales every once in a while, as if something was stuck in his throat and he couldn't breathe at any time.

"Huchi... Huchi... Huchi..."

The whole hut was silent, with only the sound of the old man's struggling breathing. No one else was moving. It seemed that he was living alone, waiting to die.

This is Old Getou from Yangjia Lane.

Li Lian walked forward, lifted the tent, and looked at Old Getou inside.

Looking at the ashen-faced old man, Zheng Que, who was walking behind him, said, "He's still got a breath. With luck, he should be able to hold on until the end of our mission tomorrow. If he's unlucky, he might die tonight."

"Just in case, we'd better make two more trips tonight and before handing over tomorrow."

He still doesn't understand how the [Book of Life and Death] can include the names of living people other than himself. Otherwise, as long as he finds a chance to look at the [Book of Life and Death], he will be able to know the other person's time of death.

Just as he was thinking this, Li Lian suddenly made a move, grabbed Old Ge's neck and twisted it hard.

click!
There was a crisp sound of bones breaking, and the old man's head tilted to the side, his eyes wide open, and he died instantly, deader than dead.

Zheng Que was stunned.

Li Lian chuckled and said, "This is convenient. We don't have to make another trip."

"Alright, Fellow Daoist Zheng, you go guard the door. I'm going to use the [Transformation of Yin Technique] to disperse the Yin energy here and ensure that the deceased's soul doesn't turn into a 'grudge spirit' and cause trouble."

Hearing this, Zheng Cheng immediately reacted and asked with a frown, "Brother Li, aren't you afraid of being discovered by the Worship Hall by doing this?"

Upon hearing this, Li Lian'an withdrew his gaze from the old man's body, turned around and glanced at him, shook his head slightly, and said jokingly: "Friend Zheng Daoist, I am also a fellow Taoist. Don't pretend in front of me."

"Fellow Daoist Zheng's spiritual power is so pure. I'm sure he's taken more [Quyin Pills] than I've ever seen. Why is he resorting to this trick on me now?"

"He's just an old man who's about to die. He can no longer be used to refine the [Qu Yin Pill]. He's dead, so he's dead."

"The Gongfengfang only cares about the results and doesn't care about such insignificant processes."

"It is our duty to prevent any accidents from happening in the city."

"And now, Li has prevented an accident!"

Refining [Eliminating Yin Pill]?
Using living people to refine pills? ?

The ingredients for [Quyin Dan] are these mortals in the city?!
