Chapter 271 Merger of Immortal City and Ghost City
Chapter 271 The merger of the fairy market and the ghost market
Ren Qing wanted to confirm the situation further, but the thought suddenly disappeared, as if it was just an illusion that had never appeared.
He shook his head and silently put the divided soul into the prison in his belly.
After dividing the soul and killing the three corpses, the perfection of the Zexian method has been reached. From now on, one has to either change the method or find an opportunity for a breakthrough.
He stabilized his mind and polished his soul.
In the next few days, Jingzhou City underwent earth-shaking changes.
The influence of the corpse elephant is still spreading, but at a much slower pace.
The original appearance of Changning Street is completely unrecognizable. The ground and walls are covered with black mycelium, and some unknown vegetation has grown out.
The vegetation exudes a faint evil spirit, making the content of evil spirit in the air higher.
The tall gray-brown trees broke through the soil at a speed visible to the naked eye, forming a sparse forest in the open space in a short time.
The people in the corpse area were not panicked. They all had traces of alienation from the corpse elephants on their bodies, and they had long been accustomed to living in a similar environment.
It's just worse now.
But Ren Qing realized that if there were a few more strange corpse-like elephants in Qingyan Town, the town would probably live up to its existence.
It’s only been a few decades since the strange things came to the waning moon layer. What if it had been a hundred years?
By then, I'm afraid there will only be areas left filled with strange things.
This is just Qingyan Town. If it were replaced by Jingzhou City with a much larger population, it might have been clearly differentiated, just like a monster cave.
Ren Qing felt it was a bit subtle.
He suddenly realized that the strange thing might be some kind of magic weapon refined by Blood Moon, with the intention of changing the environment of the Waning Moon Layer.
After the corpse elephant mutated, a full fifth of the city was covered in mycelium.
Is it possible that Jingzhou will directly turn into a "prehistoric" environment, with monsters running rampant everywhere?
The most outrageous thing is that the monster may have been transformed from a human monk.
At first, Ren Qing thought that Blood Moon's pattern was not big, so there was no point in letting the weird occupy the streets, but now it seems that it is dividing the population.
He was thinking about how to get Wuwei Taoism out.
But within a few days the calm was broken.
Ren Qing had mentioned Fairy City to the Jailer Hall before, but Master Dameng actually took the initiative to find the soul butterfly of Ghost City and wanted to help him merge.
What happened was so sudden that Ren Qing didn't react.
The two Dreamland markets were shaken, and the surrounding area was filled with thick smoke. Some buildings could be seen looming like mirages.
The soul butterfly floats over the ghost market, and the light and shadow transformed by Da Meng are right next to it.
"Zhenren, I thought you would play it safe."
Dameng Zhenren ignored Ren Qing and disappeared immediately.
Ren Qing suddenly had more memories in his mind. After checking, he couldn't help but frown. It seemed that the Jailer Hall was also in trouble.
The problem that can make Dameng Zhen feel anxious is the corpse of a meat-and-potato Taoist.
Since the remnant soul of Tiandaozi disappeared, the body began to rot uncontrollably.
Dameng Zhenren has been secretly trying to delay the decay of the corpse, but even the Yang Shen realm cannot control the Heavenly Creation Realm after death.
The bodies of Taoists who eat meat and wine will undoubtedly affect the water, and once the natural barrier disappears, Xiangxiang will be exposed to Jingzhou.
This is also the reason why Dameng Zhenren took action on the disaster relief restricted area before.
When the disaster elimination restricted area was completely wiped out, Song Zong only found out about it without waiting for the Yin difference.
The theory of the corpse of a Taoist who is a meat-and-wine Taoist can still persist for a hundred years, but we can't take any chances. The rate of decay may gradually accelerate.
No wonder Ren Qing feels that the frequency of transactions in the ghost market has increased instead of decreasing recently. It can be seen that the Jailer's Hall should have issued many corresponding tasks.
Although the various realms of the underworld were not clearly stated, each of them was prepared.
Song Zongwu mainly focused on advancing to the Yangshen realm, and even disappeared without participating in the execution of the jailer. It is said that he went to Shuize for retreat.
Li Tiangang led the guards to explore the Yangshen Realm restricted area between Xiangxiang and Shuize, trying to figure out the core techniques.
Mu Yi and others headed towards the endless forest in the south, but because they left the area covered by Abi Hell, they were unable to obtain supplies at any time, and the progress of the exploration was slow.
The head in the jar is trying its best to study the method of refining the artifact, and it is said that it is close to perfecting the method of nourishing the consciousness of the artifact.
Ren Qing couldn't sit still.
His thought all along was that since he had the golden finger of information flow, he didn't have to think about getting into danger at all.
Even when he came to Jingzhou, Gou's thoughts never stopped.
In addition to paying a little attention to Wuwei Taoist Temple, he planned to stay out of it no matter how the demon cultivator's power developed.
You only need to rely on the dream market to extend your life, and you can reach the Yangshen realm in more than ten years at most. There will be plenty of opportunities to leave Jingzhou by then.
Why bother getting involved?
Even though he encountered a demon cultivator not long ago, Ren Qing only wanted to build a demon market to extend his life without any sense of urgency.
Now he suddenly realized that if he persisted in doing so, he would probably be wiped out, and even Xiangxiang might no longer exist in a few decades.
Ren Qing narrowed his eyes and walked out of the inn, walking towards Changning Street.
Let’s first understand the situation of the corpse elephant. After all, the corpse elephant is probably just a microcosm of the situation in Jingzhou and represents the beginning of drastic changes.
It is still unknown what will happen when the waning moon layer is completely transformed into a prehistoric state.
While Ren Qing was walking, the Dream Market gradually merged with the help of Dameng Zhenren, and the fog enveloped the two.
It wasn't dark yet.
The Taoist temple disciples are still busy in the outside world, and the fairy market is relatively deserted.
The shrouded fog did not attract any attention. The coffin master had long been accustomed to sudden movements and was still concentrating on making the coffin.
The coffin master has mastered the art of refining the coffin skillfully, and he can carve the patterns on the surface of the coffin with precise movements.
From time to time, some powder is sprinkled on the coffin to create patterns of blood vessels and meridians.
However, the method of refining the treacherous fetus in the Great Dream's Secret Treasures left him confused, and he was stuck on the difficulty of conceiving the consciousness of the treacherous fetus.
When the coffin master finished carving the pattern, the movement in the fairy market continued.
The coffin elder glanced at the young man not far away. The latter was cutting wood meticulously, and the prototype of the coffin was almost completed.
It didn't take long for the young man to finish making it, just waiting to be refined into a weapon.
"Mr. Coffin, I already know what you said before, but there are still some things I don't understand about the weapon refining method. Can you explain it in detail?"
The coffin elder looked at the young man in front of him, as if he were seeing Ren Qing, who helped him make his coffin, with a momentary expression on his face.
"Han Li, if you want to learn to refine weapons, I will teach you anytime, but..."
The old coffin hesitated to speak, and finally let out a long sigh.
Under normal circumstances, Taoist disciples only spend three or four hours in the Fairy Market every day, but Han Li stayed there for more than ten days.
This does not mean that Han Li has deep cultivation, it only means that his body is in a coma, causing his soul to fall into a deep sleep.
Han Li shook his head, his expression was confused for a moment, but he soon recovered.
"Mr. Coffin, I will leave for a while and come back later to help you make the coffin."
He stood up and walked out of the Dameng Coffin Shop, silently looking at the fairy market that was both real and fake.
Han Li knew that his condition was very bad. He was trapped in the corpse area and could not move. He would die soon.
There is only consciousness in the fairy city, which cannot stop the soul from flying away.
He stood aimlessly on the street and noticed a few vague buildings at the end of Fairy City, which seemed to be buried in the fog.
Han Li subconsciously walked towards the end.
The coffin man also poked his head out of the shop and shouted out quickly when he saw that he was ignoring the danger.
"Han Li, it was transformed by immortal magic, don't touch it easily!"
In Lao Coffin's view, the immortals created the immortal market to establish the Taoist order, but such unpredictable means could lead to serious injuries if they were accidentally affected.
He shouted several times in succession, but Han Li kept walking. The coffin man hurriedly gritted his teeth and ran out of the shop, intending to drag him back.
But just as Coffin Lao approached Han Li, he found that the latter suddenly stood still. The two of them looked at the mirage at the end of the Fairy City with shocked eyes.
The ghost market is gradually revealed.
The stacked dream does not pull the ghost city into the prison of Ren Qing's belly, but allows the dreams to connect with each other to form a real phantom.
The guards had already known this in advance. They looked at the Fairy City and couldn't help but start talking.
Han Li was breathing heavily when he saw this. Even the demon cultivators were not as scary as these "immortals". They were more like a group of demons and ghosts.
The lizard jailer who was more than three meters tall stood at the end of the ghost market, scanning the fairy market unscrupulously, and sneered at Han Li's weakness.
Huang Ziwan asked curiously: "Didn't you say that Ren Qing opened a jailer's hall in Jingzhou, why do you feel that there are no two people?"
"Sir, let me have your own ideas."
The giant lizard replied with a sneer, everyone knew that Huang Ziwan and Ren Qing had a good relationship. If they learned to discuss the owner of the ghost market together, they might be remembered by Ren Qing.
“I always feel like I don’t even have a decent magic weapon, but I really feel like I’m short of resources.”
"Let them see the contraption."
The snake-man jailer deliberately showed off by turning his entire arm into a several-meter-long python, and the snake's eyes filled with fierce energy glowed red.
Huang Ziwan smiled strangely and spit out the long and narrow bone tongue in his mouth, which was obviously imitating Ren Qing's dragon and snake spine, but he didn't know how powerful it was.
Han Li and the two couldn't help but retreat a few meters.
They found that there should be a barrier between the two markets, so that the "immortal" could not enter the fairy market, and the sound was not heard.
However, as the light and shadow flickered, the guards dispersed in panic.
"This is……"
Dameng Zhenren walked slowly out of the ghost market and looked at the simple fairy market.
He did not come in his true form. The effect of overlapping dreams means that only consciousness can communicate with each other.
The coffin elder wanted to take Han Li back to the shop, but the latter stood firmly on the spot, suppressing the fear in his heart and staring at Master Dameng.
Dameng Zhenren asked: "Where did you learn your skills?"
"Teaching from Immortals."
"It's really interesting. Raising a clone of a strange thing can make up for its shortcomings when it reaches the underworld. Bize's human method is close to that of a jailer."
"It's a pity..."
Dameng Zhenren did not continue.
The initial casualty rate of the technique created by Ren Qing will be much lower than that of the prison method, but it is a pity that it must be attached to the mother body of the strange object.
Han Li plucked up the courage and said, "I am the Immortal..."
"It's time for you to wake up."
Dameng Zhenren clicked on Han Li's eyebrows. The latter looked in a daze, and his consciousness had left the fairy city and was about to return to his true body.
"Thank you, immortal."
"I am not an immortal, my name is Dameng."
Coffin Lao looked at the streets that had become empty again and couldn't help but swallow.
The fairy market and ghost market have not yet been fully opened, but it is obvious that there is a lot of background behind it. Is it really related to Yuanshi Tianzun?
