Immortality begins with meditation puppets

Chapter 192 Fellow Daoist, please take off your clothes.

There are countless talented people in the cultivation world.

The cursed spirit master and his students possessed evil markings and were skilled in divination.

When Consort Yao proposed that after the matter was accomplished, she would reward her with fifty spirit stones and three divinations by the Cursed Spirit lineage.

Su Qing said with righteous indignation:
"Since you are all people harmed by evil spirits, it would be fine if I didn't encounter you. But since I have, how can I ignore you? I only hope that my meager strength can help you avoid being harmed by evil spirits."

After he sat down again, Consort Yao recounted her experiences to him in detail.

Yu Suqing originally thought that being a curse spirit master was also a kind of cultivation of various arts.

That's not the case. While the so-called "curse master" is a profession, it is actually a form of curse.

A curse passed down through bloodlines, originating from evil spirits.

When a cursed spirit master is born, they are marked with evil runes. As they grow, they can also draw upon a portion of the power of these evil runes for their own use.

This is why other cultivators dare not offend curse masters, because those who can use the power of evil runes are unpredictable and powerful.

Like Leng Fengxiang, those who utilize the power of evil spirits will ultimately be controlled by them.

When a sorcerer reaches the end of their lifespan, their soul will return to the Western Sea and descend into its depths to serve an evil spirit called the Sea Witch for all eternity.

Although this evil spirit is a bound evil, the evil spirit domain it controls encompasses a large part of the Western Sea. Even the Penglai Immortal Kingdom cannot subdue it. It is also the source of the bloodline curses of all curse spirit masters in the world.

Over the years, many spellcasters have actually accepted this fate.

After all, in the cultivation world, only those Nascent Soul cultivators who have attained enlightenment and nurtured their own natal infant spirit can be reincarnated, unravel the mysteries of the womb, and start anew.

Most cultivators are born without concern for death. After their lifespan ends, their souls are never reborn. Since they cannot choose, they can only endure it. They are content to live a good life.

But Yao Fei was different from other spellcasters.

The evil markings on his body have the ability to suppress other curse masters, and he is also skilled in incantation techniques.

Performing incantations requires paying a price, and while ordinary spellcasters would have to pay with their lives for incantations, for Yao Fei, it might only cost her a few years of her lifespan.

Such a curse master is called the chosen one among curse masters, but in reality, she is an unlucky soul whose soul has long been predetermined by the sea witch.

The sea witch couldn't wait for her to die a natural death, so she used evil runes to extract her lifespan. Ordinary Qi Refining cultivators can live for one to two hundred years, but she only had thirty-odd years left to live.

Even if one breaks through to the Foundation Establishment stage, it will be of no use; on the contrary, it may even accelerate the passing of one's lifespan.

"When the evil marks on my face spread to my forehead, Yao Fei will be summoned to the Western Sea by the sea witch and sink into eternal damnation."

Consort Yao had already resigned herself to her fate, but a few days ago she heard that a fellow Daoist had killed a demon. Out of curiosity, Consort Yao used her incantation to calculate the Daoist's fate.

It was discovered that the fellow Daoist had been possessed by a terrifying demon that had been entrenched in the Yunshan Sect, and should have died an unjust death, but was given a second life.

I suspect that you may have a way to deal with evil spirits, but it seems that you have a prejudice against us spirit mediums. I have asked people to look for you several times, but you have ignored me and never agreed to come.

Therefore, I resorted to this desperate measure, tricking you into giving me the spirit crystals of your puppet, in order to gain entry into your courtyard!

Your approach was wrong. You should have used spirit stones to pave the way earlier. No, you should have told me earlier that your fate was so tragic, how could I have prevented you from entering?

For the sake of several dozen spirit stones, I want to see just how powerful this evil spirit is, daring to bully my dear sister like this!
Once Su Qing made up her mind and learned that the curse of the spirit could only be passed down through bloodlines and would not be transmitted to others through air, bodily fluids, or other means, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

He was able to escape from the evil spirit of Yunshan Sect because he sacrificed the original owner of the body.

This is a method that Consort Yao clearly cannot imitate.

However, the thirty-six highly accomplished Buddhist monks possessed such extraordinary abilities that even their master could not fathom them. Perhaps a trial would yield miraculous results.

It doesn't matter if it doesn't work; the wooden spirit servants are idle anyway, and striking the wooden fish a few times won't tire them out. "Thank you for your trouble, fellow Daoist. May I ask what kind of Daoist arts or supernatural powers you possess, or what kind of exorcism techniques you have, to exorcise evil and avert disaster for Consort Yao?"

Desperate and grasping at straws, Yao Fei was no longer as composed and calm as she had been when facing the insidious evil markings clinging to her body, unlike when she faced the glaring gaze of Su Qing and her puppets.

Seeing Su Qing nod in agreement, he asked with great joy.

Over the years, she has searched far and wide for ancient books and sought advice from eminent scholars.

There are several methods to drive away evil spirits.

One is the Buddhist practice of incense and Buddhism by virtuous monks who live in seclusion in the secular world, but it is rumored that the source of that Buddhist practice is also evil spirits.

The so-called exorcism is nothing more than replacing the original evil spirits with Buddhist evil spirits, and the suffering may be even greater than before, which is not what she wants.

Secondly, there are Nascent Soul cultivators who have comprehended Dao patterns and use the power of Dao patterns to exorcise evil spirits. However, the path to becoming a Nascent Soul cultivator is not one that Yao Fei can easily traverse.

Thirdly, there are body cultivators above the fourth level who have nurtured metal and fire essence furnaces. They only need to swallow a wisp of their essence to expel the evil runes in their bodies.

However, most of the body cultivation masters are in the Central Plains Martial Kingdom, which is beyond the reach of Consort Yao.

The fourth aspect involves various cultivation arts such as arrays, artifacts, talismans, pills, puppetry, and animal patterns.

The fourth and fifth tiers of the Golden Light Array, the Evil-Slaying Cone, and the Evil-Suppressing Talisman all have the effects of refining, destroying, and suppressing evil spirits.

Fourth and fifth tier Divine Guardian Pills can also ensure the eternal stability of the soul.

If a beast tamer can subdue a fourth-tier enlightened beast, a fifth-tier divine beast Pixiu, or a sixth-tier immortal beast Qilin, they can also devour and kill evil spirits.

If a puppeteer like Su Qing could create a fourth-tier exorcising puppet, he might be able to deal with high-level evil spirits like the Sea Witch.

But he clearly doesn't have that ability.

For a moment, Yao Fei suddenly realized that she seemed to be possessed.

Because if the divination results are disregarded, it seems that Su Qing, an ordinary puppeteer, has no means to deal with the strange curse that has plagued the Cursed Spirit Clan for thousands of years.

Even so, her eyes still shone brightly with hope as she awaited Su Qing's reply.

"Enough with the small talk, time is short and the task is important, let's go inside and take off our clothes first?"

This rich and beautiful girl is said to be covered in evil markings; we should let the high-ranking Buddhist monks take a good look at her.

"Ah, Fellow Daoist Su, are you going to use the Body Cultivation Essence Transfer Technique? Could it be that you have concealed your Body Cultivation level and are actually a third or fourth-level Body Cultivation expert?"

Consort Yao stared in disbelief, as if she had seen a wise savior who had come to her spirit house and unhesitatingly removed her white clothes.

Su Qing would never transfer his vital energy to her; he didn't even have enough vital energy for himself, so how could he bear to give it to someone else?

Since the last battle at Baiyun, he has twice transformed himself into a puppet in the past half month.

He significantly improved his proficiency in both the "Capture the Mountains and Seas" and "Transform the Origin Hand" techniques.

Just as he had expected, as he cultivated both his physical body and spiritual power, his sea of ​​consciousness and spiritual furnace, as well as his qi, blood and magical power, all made breakthroughs, and the effect of refining himself into a puppet became more and more obvious.

After this transformation into a puppet, his physical attributes and spiritual roots were all upgraded to the lower-to-upper grade, giving him aptitude and comprehension comparable to the true disciples of Yunshan.

The power of the Sea-Shrouding Technique has greatly increased, now possessing the power of a second-tier high-grade Dao Pattern, capable of suppressing a mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator for three breaths.

Although the Transformation Hand technique can still only transform into a Profound-level Dao technique, the interval between transformations has been shortened by more than ten days. Now, it only takes about seventy days to find a good person to transform into a Dao technique.
