Young master, why not become a corpse immortal?

Chapter 175 How come you have a scroll?

Lin Jiang gently lifted the edge of the umbrella, and rainwater poured out along the side of the umbrella, falling to the ground.

His gaze passed over the rain- and mist-shrouded courtroom and landed on the painted face.

Lin Jiang's expression turned slightly strange.

This person...

Could it be the stone Buddha from before?
If it is true...

Didn't I take a couple of bites out of this person?
Lin Jiang's expression became somewhat subtle for a moment.

Even something as solid as a rock can be tolerated, and something with hidden poison is also harmless.

But you can't give me this stuff!
I eat with dignity!

Zhou Canjiang keenly noticed the unusual look in Lin Jiang's eyes.

He frowned slightly, wondering why the other person had such an expression.

But Lieutenant General Zhou immediately composed himself, a smile appearing on his face as he looked at Lin Jiang before him:
"Young master, how have you been?"

We are complete strangers.

“Deep within the mine, young master, you have enjoyed a sumptuous feast that I have carefully prepared.”

After saying this, Lieutenant General Zhou gave a cold laugh:
"It's a pity that the young master's cultivation method is very strange. He can swallow all kinds of poisons and eat all kinds of things. He even ate half of the mine, yet he was completely unharmed."

It really is you!
Lin Jiang swayed involuntarily, but he still forced a smile:
"Your method of making this incense is truly amazing; I still remember the taste in my mouth."

That being said, Lin Jiang had lost his appetite at the moment.

General Zhou was far too strong and powerful-looking.

Although the person was covered in heavy makeup, their square face was quite different from that of the strong and powerful square-faced woman. Although the woman had distinct features, her eyes and brows exuded a gentle and heroic spirit. In contrast, this person's eyes were narrow and his eyebrows were drooping, making him look messy and disheveled. His whole face gave off an unsettling sense of strangeness.

It is really……

I don't like people.

Clearing his mind of all the jumbled thoughts, Lin Jiang looked at the man before him again:
"With such a grand gathering today, it's probably not just for reminiscing. Why don't you just tell me what you're after?"

Lieutenant General Zhou also spoke frankly:
“A distinguished person is looking for a certain item you possess. If you are willing to tell the truth, we can each go our separate ways.”

"You want to find treasures on me, huh?" Lin Jiang thought for a moment. "I have plenty of treasures on me. If I really took them out, there would probably be seventeen or eighteen kinds. I wonder which kind of treasure you want to see?"

After saying this, he actually reached into his sleeve and pulled out the beaded old man.

Brother Zhu Zi, who had been watching the show from inside his sleeve, was momentarily stunned when he was suddenly pulled out.

He hesitated for a long time in Lin Jiang's palm before finally saying:
"Nice to meet you."

General Zhou's eyes twitched slightly.

He had certainly seen this bead before.

Back when we were in the cave, this bead took on a lot of responsibility.

But that's clearly not what we're asking now.

General Zhou exhaled a deep breath:
"If possible, I would never want to fight you."

After speaking, he flicked his finger at the six incense sticks inserted in the incense altar. The rising incense smoke condensed into a cloud in the rain and went straight to Lin Jiang's face.

If one is truly influenced by this Dharma, one's thoughts, ideas, and energy flow will also be affected by the six desires associated with these six incense sticks.

The art of disrupting Qi.

In a serious clash between masters, this is always the first step.

Lin Jiang's eyes lit up.

Under the illumination of the magic mirror, the colors of the sky and earth were completely different from before.

A misty haze floated in the fine rain, carrying the Dharma Gate as it rapidly approached him.

The Dharma Gate was approaching Lin Jiang at an alarming speed.

“The method of disrupting Qi.” Liang Huashan’s voice rang in Lin Jiang’s ear: “Normally, this method either uses Qi to counteract or uses sealing methods to isolate it.”

Lin Jiang was indeed unaware of this.

In the past, he seemed to have been subjected to several attacks of chaotic qi, but they were all resolved by the little golden man inside his body.

Faced with the fragrance that wafted over like mountain mist, Lin Jiang thought for a moment.

He still had a newly learned technique that he hadn't used yet.

This involves drawing the cold energy into the abdomen.

He aimed at the six streams of Qi that were drifting towards him and blew them out with a sudden breath.

The instant the cold vapor left his mouth, the curtain of rain changed abruptly. The raindrops instantly condensed into pure white, and the torrential rain transformed into a blizzard, whipped by the wind and rushing towards General Zhou.

Upon seeing this, General Zhou's face instantly stiffened.

What kind of magic is this?
He chose this mountain to set up the altar in order to borrow the wind of Qian (☰) and Xun (☴), while the power of Kan (☵) water was merely an auxiliary force.

Unexpectedly, the other party used the water to melt the snow and turned the opportune moment into their own advantage.

The torrential snow collided violently with General Zhou's six-colored Qi, and the two auras twisted into a vortex in mid-air before bursting into countless streams that scattered in all directions.

But Lin Jiang could clearly see that the two streams of Qi did not actually neutralize or cancel each other out.

Seeing this scene, Lin Jiang couldn't help but have some realizations.

Although the Qi between heaven and earth has mutual generation and restraint, it is ultimately just a step in this natural cycle.

However, when it comes to this method, whoever has the stronger breathing technique will have the greater advantage.

After the two streams of Qi intertwined for a moment, they dispersed again. Lin Jiang's Frost Qi weakened slightly, while Zhou Canjiang's Six Qi were scattered and disoriented.

Seeing the remaining Qi surging towards him, the little golden figures within Lin Jiang's body were ready to meet the enemy.

However, immediately, a half-finished scroll emerged from Lin Jiang's sleeve.

With a paintbrush in his hand, Liang Huashan painted an ink river in front of Lin Jiang with just a few strokes.

The rushing Qi flowed directly into the Ink River, transforming into a six-colored boat that drifted downstream and disappeared without a trace.

"Although this person has some skill in the Star Dao, it seems that he has not yet passed his destiny. His resources and abilities are not yet complete. Even with this chaotic Qi method, he has not been able to unify the multiple Qi."

Liang Huashan commented without holding back.

To him, General Zhou's method of disrupting Qi was indeed too clumsy. At this moment, General Zhou had no time to spare for anything else.

Before him, a blizzard, carrying the force of the Kan River, swept towards him, covering most of the cypress-like trees on the mountain peaks with frost.

Even before the Qi reached General Zhou, he could feel a faint pain on his face.

Zhou Canjiang's heart suddenly leaped into his throat.

If one wants to deal with the overwhelming force of the Kan Water, the best approach is to use the "Wood element".

However, since he currently does not possess the corresponding magical artifact, he can only settle for second best and seek the Li Fire position in the Bagua divination method.

Do I have any useful Fire Release techniques?

Several thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant, and then General Zhou suddenly remembered that he still had a bottle in his arms.

That thing...

It seems to correspond to the momentum of fire.

He simply tore open his clothes, took out the jade bottle, and threw it into the air along with the tinderbox, then blew a strong breath on the two objects.

A crimson heatwave exploded out, tangling with the snow tornado.

A fleeting flash of fire flickered in the storm.

After the fleeting storm subsided, snowflakes began to fall softly again.

It looks like this snowstorm will continue for a while.

Only the area around General Zhou's body was covered in water, and was even radiating heat.

Lin Jiang adjusted his breathing and looked at General Zhou in surprise.

What skill did that person just use? Why does it feel so familiar?
Liang Huashan, hidden in Lin Jiang's sleeve, also sighed:
"I have never seen such a flying snow technique before. Young master's skills are truly superb."

"you flatter me."

Lin Jiang looked at General Zhou again and found that the other man was now holding a meat-shaped box with a gloomy expression.

Holding the box in his hand, General Zhou didn't say much, and simply flung it outwards with force.

As the mass of flesh was tossed into the air, yellowish-brown eyes and a gaping mouth suddenly split open from between the folds.

What is this?
He subconsciously met the eyes of the fleshy box in the air.

"Hehehe! Kid, this eunuch said before that you like to swallow things whole. Look at me, do you think I can swallow this?"

Lin Jiang blinked, and suddenly saw that the box in the air had turned into a...

Certain grains that are subject to the cycle of reincarnation
Lin Jiang knew what it was, but he didn't want to know.

However, any normal human being would experience emotional fluctuations upon seeing such things, and Lin Jiang was no exception.

But at that very moment, the box grinned and let out a strange laugh.

Lin Jiang felt as if his emotions had been stirred up.

In an instant, Lin Jiang's ears fell into dead silence.

The sense of smell then disappeared.

The crisp, refreshing scent of snowflakes in the air was gone, and even the sound of falling snow had quietly faded away.

Finally, the snowflakes that had been flying all over the sky with the wind disappeared.

All that remained was pure blackness.

Lin Jiang only realized what was happening in that instant.

Exploitation of the five senses!

This is indeed a troublesome task for a martial artist. Just like the old woman's method of slowing down consciousness, if the five senses are blocked, Lin Jiang would not know where to go for a while.

But he quickly calmed down.

Acting rashly can easily lead to falling into a trap of trickery.

Think of a way.

How can we forcefully break through the influence of this method?

But Lin Jiang didn't know where the effects of this method came from.

If it's about the soul, can I activate the methods in the Great Enlightenment Record myself?
What if it weren't targeting the three souls and seven spirits...?

These thoughts flooded into Lin Jiang's mind, and at that moment, Lin Jiang suddenly remembered something:
The little golden figure in the inner palace once rode the charming maiden left behind by the old woman.

It seems that the little golden men at that time used some means to control the bodies of those beauties.

Can I use this method to control my own body?
Once I thought of it, I had to give it a try!
"Liu Fangyue."

"Boss, I'm here."

really!

Although the five senses are sealed, thoughts still exist, and one can still connect to and see the inner palace.

Lin Jiang's divine sense penetrated directly into the inner palace.

Upon entering the inner palace, one's gaze immediately fell upon several charming women carrying bricks and stones in the distance.

The little figures were suspended at their chests, with strands of golden threads flowing down from their bodies and into the women's limbs and bones, like puppets controlling their bodies.

Lin Jiang glanced at it and understood. He then directly used his Qi and began to imitate the little golden man's method, as the Qi surged into his body.

As this energy flowed through his limbs, the environment around Lin Jiang, which had been like a black mist, gradually became clearer.

He felt...

My sense of touch gradually returned.

The north wind, carrying snowflakes, brushed past my ears, while the embers of sandalwood lingered around my nose.

The dark veil that had been shrouding Lin Jiang dissipated at that moment.

then,

Lin Jiang then saw Zhou Canjiang's big, painted face right in front of him.

The two stared at each other.
