Cultivating Immortality from the Book of Life and Death

Chapter 52 [Umbrella Girl]. (Third update!)

In the dilapidated hall, Zheng Que sat alone at the top.

Looking at the four words "Not Dispatched" on the [Book of Life and Death], his expression suddenly became very solemn.

This [Evil Shadow Play] had no intention of obeying his orders from the beginning to the end!

After the other party returned to reality last night, he probably ran away directly and didn't even think about looking for him.

You have the guts to do this. I wonder if this [Evil Shadow Play] has seen something?
"There is no Eighteen Levels of Hell..."

"There are no ghost soldiers or generals in the entire hall for me to command."

"These are the flaws of this underworld."

"Last night, this [Evil Shadow Play] appeared to be timid and fearful on the surface, but in fact, it had been secretly observing this underworld?"

"It seems that this kind of ghost with extremely high intelligence and powerful strength is not so easy to fool."

While thinking, Zheng Que shook his head slightly. He had originally wanted to issue an imperial decree to capture more high-level ghosts to serve as his ghost servants.

But in the current situation, if a high-level ghost is really captured, those who are less courageous will find an opportunity to escape as soon as they return to reality, just like [Evil Shadow Play], causing him to lose an imperial edict in vain.

The braver ones...

But don’t let him attack you directly in the underworld!
Exhaling slowly, Zheng Que looked up at the hall in front of him.

Although this temple still maintains its former spaciousness, the broken gaps, mottled patterns, broken floor tiles, and the lame armchair all reveal its decline.

Maybe the scene that the ghost sees here is different from what you see.

But this shaky palace is indeed too dilapidated...

Thinking of this, Zheng Que shook his head slightly and stopped thinking about it. He turned the [Book of Life and Death] back to the first page, and then saw a new name in the last column.

"Type: Evil."

"Species: Umbrella Girl."

"Real name: Ku Lan."

"Native Place: Jiaoguhualin."

"Lifespan in the Yin Hour: One Hundred and Seventy-Nine Years, Three Months, and Five Days."

Umbrella Girl...

This was the second ghost servant he had just captured. Like [Evil Shadow Play], there was no record of the other party's life span, only its life span in the afterlife. It seemed to be a natural-born ghost.

Zheng Cheng immediately opened his palm and released the Umbrella Girl.

A flash of blood escaped and fell to the ground in the hall.

In the real world, this [Umbrella Girl] always held a silk umbrella. No matter which direction you looked from, you could only see her back and her face could not be seen at all. But in this underworld, as soon as the blood light appeared in the hall, her true appearance was revealed.

She was a pale and haggard girl with delicate features. Her eyes were hollow and she looked confused and without intelligence. However, there was a murderous look between her brows and her whole body was filled with unspeakable ferocity and evil, far from being comparable to a "vengeful spirit" like Qingli.

The girl was wearing a black cross-collared straight-hem dress and holding a folded black silk umbrella in her hand. She stood quietly in the hall, like a forgotten ghost.

Zheng Que looked at the [Umbrella Girl] carefully. If it weren't for Qingli's Yin Zhi's help, he would never have been able to catch the [Umbrella Girl].

The mayor's ancestors must have had a high level of cultivation. He didn't know where he got this "Umbrella Girl" from, and he originally wanted to use the "Ghost Controlling Technique" to enslave this "evil spirit".

However, without the power of the Yincha, relying solely on [Ghost Controlling Technique] would be impossible to succeed. Afterwards, perhaps unwilling to accept such a failure, he searched for a way to refine [Umbrella Girl], and finally sealed her in the bronze tripod...

Thinking of this, Zheng Que suddenly became a little confused. He wondered if something unexpected happened to the ancestor of the mayor's family.

Otherwise, why didn't he pass on the skills to his descendants?

After thinking for a while, Zheng Que looked at the [Umbrella Girl] again.

Qingli has not killed any new ghosts in the past two days, so he is unable to improve the cultivation level of this [Umbrella Girl].

In this situation, I can only try to see if I can open his spiritual intelligence...

While thinking, Zheng Que raised his palm and pointed the word "Ling" at the [Umbrella Girl].

The next moment, countless Yin Qi came roaring and turned into a huge funnel, and began to pour madly into the body of the [Umbrella Girl].

[Umbrella Girl]'s originally empty eyes gradually became bright.

Seeing that the Yin energy on the Umbrella Girl was actually starting to increase, Zheng Que was stunned. He had used the Yin energy of ghosts collected by the underworld before to improve Qingli's cultivation. How come there was still Yin energy left now?

Is it because Qingli didn’t absorb all the negative energy here before?

thump!
At this moment, the [Umbrella Girl] suddenly knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice, "Sir!"

"It's so unfair to me!"

"Please, sir, help me!"

"Please, sir, seek justice for my family!"

As she spoke, the [Umbrella Girl] immediately began to kowtow, her tone filled with strong indignation, as if she had really suffered some great injustice.

Zheng Que frowned slightly. If Qingli hadn't been there before, he might have felt a little sympathy for the "Umbrella Girl" looking so aggrieved.

But now... this [Umbrella Girl] is a natural born ghost, what injustice could she have suffered?
Qingli at that time might have suffered some injustice in her life, but how could this [Umbrella Girl], a natural born ghost, be wronged by others?

Thinking this way, Zheng knew his current status and immediately started his job. He immediately asked in a dignified tone: "What grievance have you suffered?"

His voice was like the collision of many waters, shaking the vast hall, and his mighty power spread out in all directions, covering the whole sky and the earth.

Upon hearing this, the [Umbrella Girl] kowtowed ten times in a row, then raised her head. Her haggard face was filled with hostility and murderous intent. She said viciously, "One hundred and seventy-nine years, three months, and five days ago, I simply massacred a human village, and yet three human cultivators came to hunt me down!"

"I rose up in resistance and finally managed to eliminate those three atrocious monks who committed heinous crimes and deserved death!"

"One hundred and seventy-nine years, three months, and four days ago, I saw a female cultivator with an asymmetrical appearance, and out of kindness, I helped her turn her head. But her Taoist partner turned against me and came after me!"

"I fought back again, but only managed to smash the monk's head. Unexpectedly, the monk was ungrateful and, before dying, slapped me, staining my clothes."

"One hundred and seventy-nine years, three months, and three days ago, I saw someone killing someone in the street. He had only intended to kill one person, but I intervened and allowed him to kill everyone on the street, including his wife and children."

"In the end, that person not only didn't thank me, but he actually committed suicide with a knife!"

"Such an ungrateful and ungrateful person should go to hell!"

"One hundred and seventy-nine years, three months, and two days ago, I saw the asymmetry between the two female cultivators again, and I went over to help again..."
