I can't be a demon.

Chapter 152: Corpse Reincarnation Secret Art Synthesis
The wind and waves of Nujiang River are hard to predict. Sometimes it is as calm as a lake, and suddenly waves pile up.

In addition, the locals are in awe of the Nujiang Dragon King, so there have historically been few fishermen in the mainstream, and only the villages in the tributaries make a living by fishing.

Old Liu was walking between the rock walls, with his peripheral vision gazing at Nujiang Town in the distance.

"I heard that there was a demon causing trouble in Nujiang Town, and the town was closed for more than half a year..."

Old Liu shuddered. For some reason, he always felt that the river water was extremely creepy, as if there was an indescribable giant swimming around.

"Don't come here again in the future. It's weird."

He is not from Nujiang Town, but because the wind and waves nearby are relatively small, he comes here every few days to check if there is any catch in the cage.

"It's all rotten fish and shrimp."

Old Liu tried hard to pull back the nets that caught fish and shrimp, only to find that the fish and shrimp that had fallen out of them looked listless.

Some river fish even had thumb-sized deformed fins growing on their abdomens.

"unlucky."

Old Liu was just about to leave along the shore when he inadvertently noticed that the rope of one of the cage nets was tightened, so he hurried forward and tried to pull it.

"It must be at least a hundred pounds. Could it be the water plants that got caught on the bottom of the river?"

"kindness?"

At this moment.

An arm seemed to be entangled in the cage net. Old Liu looked closely and found that it was a woman.

The woman's skin was swollen and blistered, blood was oozing from her mouth, and her chest was no longer rising and falling.

"I don't know which riverbank he fell from. He died at such a young age."

Old Liu shook his head helplessly and planned to cut the rope. It was said that drowned people could easily turn into water ghosts, so the cage net was no longer useful.

"call."

The woman suddenly opened her eyes, and her long hair was entangled with each other like spider silk.

Old Liu took a few steps back and then noticed a horrifying scene: the woman's skin and flesh twisted and grew as if she were a living thing, and her appearance was moving closer to the monk little by little.

"Monster...monster!!!" Old Liu ran away crawling.

Zhu Yihong coughed a few times and climbed up the rock wall with difficulty with the help of a rope.

"Fortunately he...didn't follow."

Zhu Yihong's hair turned to ashes one by one. She tried her best to endure the loss of control of her body and soul, but she was still gradually becoming more and more blessed.

She lay flat on the shore, took out the token, and tried to contact Li Shun through telepathy with her remaining consciousness.

I thought it would take at least a few quarters of an hour, but just as I got the token from the storage bag, a figure fell from mid-air. It was Shen Lian.

boom.

"It's Chen Guangrui's [assimilation] again. It's even more serious than the townspeople."

Shen Lian raised his eyebrows. With Zhu Yihong's cultivation level at the sixth level of Yuandan, it shouldn't be possible for the well water in the city to cause such serious erosion.

"Did she accidentally enter the Nujiang Dragon Palace and come into contact with Chen Guangrui's body?"

"That's not right. The cave is a small world similar to the snail dojo."

"Zhu Yihong is in the cave, so the Wanhu token should not be able to sense his location."

While Shen Lian was thinking, he took out the [Suppressing Alien Fruit] that had been bred in the alchemy furnace not long ago. After giving it to Zhu Yihong, the assimilation in her body stopped.

【Inhibitory Fruit】

[Nurtured by the alchemy furnace, taking it will suppress the loss of control of the body and soul and increase cultivation. ]

The anti-evil fruit naturally came from the more than 700 Shuxue fruits donated by Wang Baoping. After the magical power of pregnant objects removed the dross, the alchemy furnace produced nearly 500 fruits in total, which was a huge profit.

Shen Lian helped Zhu Yihong absorb the medicinal power, and it took a long time for the latter to regain consciousness.

"Zhu Yihong, are you okay?"

"fine."

Zhu Yihong was terrified and vomited a large amount of undigested fish and shrimp from his stomach. Then he leaned over and hurried away from the turbulent Nujiang River.

"Hurry! Go! We can't stay near the Nu River!!!"

Zhu Yihong's face turned pale.

"what happened?"

As soon as Shen Lian finished speaking, the vertical eye between his eyebrows opened, and his spiritual sense swept across the seemingly ordinary surface of the river. Yun Ling's inner elixir emitted a faint light.

A sense of inexplicable astonishment came over me.

Although the spiritual consciousness did not detect anything unusual, Yunling's inner elixir was sending out crazy warnings.

"Shen Lian!"

Shen Lian came back to his senses, frowned, and led Zhu Yihong to retreat a thousand meters until the sense of danger that was always following him disappeared.

"Miss Zhu, what on earth happened to you during this period of time?"

Zhu Yihong was still frightened and his internal energy kept leaking out.

"Big monster, there is a big monster in the water!!!"

"Wang Baoping he..." Zhu Yihong did not ask any more questions. Since Shen Lian had already arrived in Nujiang Town, Wang Baoping was definitely dead.

"At that time, Wang Baoping attacked without warning, and Li Shun was hit by his secret technique. I could only take the opportunity to escape to the Nujiang River and hide..."

Zhu Yihong vaguely remembered that he had planned to use the river water as a cover to contact others.

As a result, as soon as he entered the water, he was targeted by a strange and inexplicable monster, and he could only run around desperately to avoid it for the rest of the time.

"What kind of demon?"

Shen Lian remembered the warning from Yun Ling's inner elixir and immediately sensed something unusual.

"He looks like an old monk, wearing a bright red robe, but... that robe is actually his skin. He can swim freely in the water, and his cultivation must be at least three thousand years."

"Is he also the cause of your loss of control of your body?"

"Yeah, it seems to be assimilating me."

Zhu Yihong's hair stood up, and she repeatedly checked her body and soul. Shen Lian fell silent.

He knew what the demon in the river was. Wang Baoping's offering of the pirated Chen Guangrui to the Queen Mother was definitely not without cause.

It seems that mothers can use this to give birth to something extraordinary.

A descendant.

When Ma Wanhu saw the temple priest who claimed to be Xuan Zang in the dilapidated temple by the river, he should be the demon in robes in the river.

Wang Baoping had previously kept the animal in a dilapidated temple out of fear.

The result was an unexpected escape.

What surprised Shen Lian deeply was that the demon could actually evade the divine sense of the Eight Realms of Divine Wandering, and there was a high probability that he would not be able to find it at all.

"It's a ghost that a mother has children."

Zhu Yihong asked worriedly, "The Nu River stretches for hundreds of miles, and the demon can move freely in the water. It would be very difficult to kill it."

"Then let someone else handle it."

Shen Lian narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "You are the one who reports to the court and says that the source of the townspeople's assimilation of appearance is the demon in the river. Haha, naturally some people will be nervous."

Now that Wang Baoping is dead, he has offended the forces that covet his mother's resources.

Let's just go all out and trick them into coming to Nujiang Town to solve the problem once and for all. And, by the way, help them figure out the truth about the mother and child.

"Also, let everyone in the government office speak with one voice: Wang Baoping died from a demon in the water."

"Huh? Okay."

Zhu Yihong hesitated to speak. According to Shen Lian's personality, shouldn't he just rush in directly?
"You should go back to the government office and recuperate. The coming period will surely be troublesome."

The first thing Shen Lian did after returning to Nujiang Town was to ask Yuan Chaozhong to re-seal the well water to prevent the mother and her children from polluting the water source.

He ordered the townspeople not to approach the Nujiang River and immediately went into seclusion.

The heart beats like a drum.

A light mist covered the backyard of the yamen.

After Shen Lian picked all the elixir fruits, he took back the elixir furnace fruit. After all, judging from the surface, the role of the elixir furnace in nurturing elixir fruits is more comprehensive than any magic weapon.

He only kept a small portion of the anti-aliens fruit and took the rest into the ghost gourd.

Shaking the ghost gourd, there are already two to three hundred kilograms of medicinal wine in it, and there are still two hundred anti-alien fruits in the process of decomposing.

"That's right, plus the experience gained from the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, it just makes the progress of the Wanshou Corpse Root reach 10%, an extra 10 points."

Shen Lian currently has 21 points, which is enough to synthesize the secret art of corpse resurrection and to start his fourth profession. He does not need to drink the medicinal wine in a hurry to gain experience.

"let's start."

Shen Lian swallowed the Corpse Demon Fruit in one gulp, and a large amount of related memories flooded into his mind. He could even understand the experience of Mrs. White Bone's cultivation in a disguised way.

[Take Corpse Demon Fruit, Longevity Corpse Demon Experience +0.34%]

Immediately, the three souls and seven spirits in the Niwan Palace became active.

Yunling's inner elixir actively protects the soul. It seems that with just a thought, Shen Lian can immediately abandon his physical body and escape with his soul.

"The Corpse Reincarnation Method can be said to be the most unfriendly secret technique for warriors. Once the physical body is abandoned, even if the Yuan Dan is still there, the foundation will be destroyed."

【The Secret Technique of Corpse Reincarnation (Out-of-Body Experience)】

Shen Lian put aside all distracting thoughts and didn't even have the thought of trying.

[Do you want to consume 10 points to synthesize the Purple Palace Tempering Technique and the Corpse Reincarnation Technique?]

"determine."

Shen Lian's mind became clear, and the contents of the Purple Mansion Weapon Tempering Method flashed through his mind. Then, the secret technique of corpse reincarnation was integrated into it in a mysterious way.

Before he could investigate further, he began to feel the illusion of his soul leaving his body.

"really!"

“I can enter a state of enlightenment.”

Shen Lian looked excited. He felt that his five senses had reached their peak and his mind was extremely active. All the problems he had encountered in his cultivation were easily solved.

He couldn't help but deduce the seven realms of Dao Infant, and observed Yun Ling's inner elixir in great detail with his spiritual sense.

Using the countless martial arts books he had read as reference, he deduced each of the various paths.

Soon, a martial arts path that combined inner alchemy and the demon's internal strength took shape. It utilized the influence of the demon's aura erosion and combined it with the transformation of strength to forcibly break the elixir and become an infant.

"Not enough, still not safe."

Shen Lian tapped the ground with his knuckles and spent half a day coming to a conclusion.

"If the fourth profession can bind the Yunling Inner Pill as the fundamental object, relying on the feedback from the promotion to the third and fourth levels, the grasp will increase by 30%."

“It’s come full circle and I’m back to the fourth profession.”

After hesitating for a few moments, Shen Lian took out the five internal organs monster to observe. The completely different organ structure came into view, and traces of acquired cultivation could be seen.

The occupation panel keeps showing prompts for [Blood Spirit Child], all of which indicate that the conditions are insufficient.

"It's a very complicated method. It looks like it came from a cave."

The secret technique is called [Five Internal Organ Gods]. If practiced normally, one needs to make the internal organs more flexible until one has the intelligence of a baby.

"No wonder Wang Baoping has ordinary strength but has mastered many secret techniques."

"Once you cultivate the five internal organs gods, your heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys will each awaken a demon's magical power. You can communicate with the five internal organs gods and borrow their magical powers in disguise."

“If you communicate with the five internal organs at the same time, you will be able to sense the mother in the dark.”

The evilness of the Five Internal Organs Gods far exceeded the secret techniques that Shen Lian had come into contact with. After the internal organs came to life, it was equivalent to having five more demons with connected lives in the body.

If he is not careful, he will lose control, and Wang Baoping relies on Shuxue Dan to suppress it.

Shen Lian improved the content many times, relying on his keen eye to forcibly deduce the general idea.

If one really wants to practice this weird Five Internal Organs God technique, one will only go astray, but using it to become a [Blood Spirit Child] is not a big problem.

According to the experience of the Taoist priests, the entry of the five internal organs will be enough when the body and soul touch the entry of the five internal organs.
