Cultivating Immortality from the Book of Life and Death

Chapter 102: Delaying Time... (First Update! Please Subscribe!)

As soon as he finished speaking, Zheng Que suddenly felt that the force that was sealing his mouth disappeared, and he could speak normally!
For a moment, he was covered in cold sweat, he was just a little bit short of time!
This Xiao Yiyang didn't help him delay at all!
Just as he was thinking, a familiar voice suddenly came into his ears: "Friend Li, please help me delay time!"

"It's a 'weird' thing."

"I've found a way to crack this 'weirdness', but it will take time."

Hearing this, Zheng Que was slightly startled. This was the [Sound Transmission Technique].

And it was Xiao Yiyang's voice.

The other party was indeed lying on the ground pretending to be dead.

And, delaying time?
How to procrastinate?

Zheng Que's mind raced as he took a deep breath and nodded, agreeing to Xiao Yiyang's request.

So, he immediately looked up at the blurry figure on the platform and said loudly, "Master, the man on my left is not dead! He is very willing to serve the family!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the blurry figure on the platform had not yet responded. Xiao Yiyang, who was lying on the ground pretending to be dead, changed his mouth shape, as if he had cursed.

The next moment, Xiao Yiyang jumped up from the ground and ran in the direction he came from.

The ropes tied around his legs had been untied at some point, but the ropes around his arms were still tied tightly around him.

The blurry figure on the platform didn't hesitate. The finger that had been pointing at Zheng Que now pointed at Xiao Yiyang again: "Are you really willing to work for the family?"

Xiao Yiyang didn't say a word in response, and his speed of fleeing towards the exit of the tunnel suddenly increased.

At the same time, Zheng Que used all his strength to shake his qi and blood, and the bleeding rate of the wound on his palm increased further.

The spiritual blood moistened the rope, constantly consuming the Yin energy within it, and the force that bound him became weaker and weaker.

clack clack...

Just as Xiao Yiyang was about to enter the corridor, countless crisscrossing lights suddenly lit up around him.

As light and darkness alternated, a huge formation slowly opened up, covering the entire mountain.

A translucent barrier also rose in front of Xiao Yiyang, completely isolating him from the entrance of the tunnel.

This is the defensive formation of the Shu Family Castle’s living quarters!
Xiao Yiyang stopped immediately. It had been some time since the Shu Family Castle had been in trouble, and the formation in the castle had not been maintained. Under normal circumstances, even if it could still be used, no one would activate it.

However, what he encountered now was a "weirdness"!
This defensive formation has also become a part of this "weirdness".

At this time, perhaps because Xiao Yiyang hadn't spoken, the blurry figure on the platform shouted angrily again: "You're afraid of death!"

"Deserting!"

"Such a cowardly person is a waste of the resources of my Shu Family Fort if he lives."

"Join our family's main banner as soon as possible, and you can contribute your last bit to the family!"

Before he finished speaking, the figure on the platform pointed his finger at Xiao Yiyang and emitted a beam of condensed black energy again.

The black energy swept through the air like lightning, incredibly fast, and in just a moment, it shot to the back of Xiao Yiyang's head. At this critical moment, Xiao Yiyang's energy suddenly surged, from the original fifth level of Qi training to the seventh level.

Whoosh!
The next moment, he moved to the side at the critical moment and narrowly avoided the black air.

But the hat on his head was instantly cut into two halves by the black air and fell to the ground.

Under the bamboo hat, Xiao Yiyang was still wearing a bronze mask, which still covered his face tightly. He took a step back and immediately steadied his body. However, his hands were still tied tightly behind his back with ropes, and he could not find a chance to break free.

At this moment, the blurry figure on the platform seemed to have finally noticed something was wrong. A sinister aura suddenly emanated from its body, like billowing black smoke, instantly filling the belly of the mountain. It roared in anger, "You are an outsider!"

Along with the roar of the blurry figure, smoke rose from the red incense burner behind him, like a volcanic eruption, turning into a torrent of green smoke, rushing straight to the top of the mountain. When the torrent touched the stalactites, it was like the Milky Way being overturned, flowing rapidly to the surroundings.

The smoke billowed like a vast ocean, crisscrossing the entire mountain.

One after another, illusory figures emerged from the smoke.

These figures were of different appearances, including men, women, young and old. Zheng Que looked particularly familiar with some of them. They were Fei Yuanhui, the female cultivator in the goose yellow shirt, and the fat and thin male cultivator who died in the corridor when he came in just now!

All the phantoms still retained their appearance in life, with their bodies intact, but their expressions were hideous and distorted, and there was unspeakable horror in their gloomy expressions.

The shadow was suspended in the air, as if riding the waves. As the smoke spread, it locked onto Xiao Yiyang with bared teeth.

Snapped!
At the same time, Zheng Que finally broke the rope on his hands.

Seeing that the ghosts were all attracted by Xiao Yiyang and did not notice him, Zheng Que immediately cut his wrist again, letting the spiritual blood drip onto the ropes tied around his legs.

The Yin energy in these ropes was thick and seemed as if they were made of fine iron and were difficult to break free. However, after being impacted by the Yang energy in the spiritual blood, they suddenly softened and their originally strong binding force decreased significantly.

Just when everything was going smoothly, Xiao Yiyang, who was being targeted by many ghosts, immediately raised his foot, pointed his toes at Zheng Que, and shouted, "He's an outsider too!"

"He has already untied the ropes on his hands and will untie the bindings on his legs soon!"

???

Zheng Que's scalp suddenly went numb. This Xiao Yiyang is really a piece of shit!
In order to save his own life, he didn't even consider the overall situation.

Zheng Que's mind raced as he slapped the soul-nourishing bag. Two streaks of blood instantly emerged from the bag and landed on his left and right.

The blood light on the left side turned into a figure in white clothes and black hair, with hair tied up high and bloodshot eyes. It was Qingli. The blood light on the right side showed the back of a figure in black clothes and a black umbrella. His hair was messy and there was a red ribbon at the end of his hair, as bright as blood. He looked quiet and elegant. It was Kulan.

As soon as Qingli appeared, the figure on Zheng Que's right who was also tied up stood up immediately, and the ropes that tied him up seemed to have suddenly become ineffective and fell to the ground with a rustling sound.

However, even without the restraints, the figure was still blurry.

He bowed respectfully to Qingli and greeted her, "Master Qingli!"

Looking at this scene, Zheng Que was immediately puzzled. The voice was obviously Nian Nu's, but since Nian Nu could forcibly break free from control, why didn't he move just now?
He thought that the other party would not be able to use his secret skills after being tied up with ropes!

Before he could think any further, the blurry figure on the platform angrily shouted, "Outsider!"

"kill!!!"
