This is how immortals are cultivated

The pollution of the treacherous way has many layers.

It seemed like he couldn't even enter the Soul Induction Realm, and most of the pollution and curses caused by the evil ways of the Soul Induction Realm were spiritual.

First, it pollutes the mind, so when ordinary people encounter ghosts, they will go crazy even if they don’t die.

When one reaches the spiritual secret realm, pollution can affect matter through strange spiritual power.

For example, Chang Yinzi can make corpses turn into zombies, and the spiritual secrets of the blood and flesh path encountered before can cause the body of a living being to deform.

When it comes to true disaster, it is still material and spiritual pollution. This kind of pollution has become solidified, and even... it distorts the rules of reality to a certain extent.

And the next level up... above the true disaster. That would be the true pollution of the environmental laws. From the perspective of curse, it could be called a meme.

The old woman's mental distortion was shattered by Li Qingming's punch, and his punch, with undiminished force, landed directly on the old woman's face.

This punch was enough to shatter a rock, and the old woman's face was instantly shattered. The outer layer of her body was like a shell, and when the outer layer of the shell was broken, the contents inside were revealed.

They were black and sticky, like tentacles of a group of swimming snakes, but the skin was more resilient than that of a real snake.

At this time, the tentacles extended from the old woman's half-broken head and pulled towards Li Qingming.

Li Qingming was agile and dodged left and right. If there was one thing he couldn't avoid, he would grab it with his palm.

With a force of his wrist, the tentacle was torn off.

"I was wondering what it was, it turned out to be a tree ghost."

Except for humans, all things in the universe have life but no nature, but the strange way has endowed some creatures with strange spirituality. These are the spirits, ghosts, and gods.

To be precise, such things are called "spirits", while the so-called ghosts and gods are some conceptualized things that have been transformed into weird things, and they basically reveal the mysteries of the spirit world.

Li Qingming understood the other party's origin, and the tentacles he had just crushed were actually vines.

This tree spirit is indeed one of the most powerful spirit monsters.

This house is its territory, or in other words, the place where the house is located is where its roots are entrenched.

As the vines whipped by the tree spirit were all broken or smashed by Li Qingming, Wu Yuanshuo on the side was also helping. When he froze the vines with his palm power, the ground began to tremble slightly.

This tree spirit is getting serious.

Its strength is indeed higher than that of Li Qingming and Wu Yuanshuo.

Just as it seemed as if something huge was surging under the ground, someone stomped his foot on the ground.

When the ground trembles, vibration waves of equal amplitude caused by the force are transmitted into the ground, and without anyone noticing, they calm down the surging and overturning roots underground.

The tree spirit could not detect any signs of inspiration, because what suppressed it was not magic, but pure power and extreme numerical values.

Chapter 82 It’s Not Over Yet

Using a single point to penetrate the entire surface, a technique known as "penetrating force" among the many martial arts powers, had already been used when escorting Jin Bailu and attacking the high pole spirit secret. This technique would be extremely useful if encountering a large monster enemy.

The pure force was transmitted to the underground without destroying the ground. There were changes in hardness and softness in the force. In an instant, the dense roots of the tree spirit underground were broken into pieces.

A shrill shriek emanated from underground; the tree spirit hadn't died immediately. Plants possessed life but no sex, so achieving enlightenment was inherently more difficult than for ordinary animals. However, once they achieved enlightenment, their power was far greater than that of other spirits and creatures.

Although purely physical attacks can seriously injure the tree spirit, it cannot be killed directly because it has a certain degree of immortality.

However, the monster was indeed severely damaged, and could only face the joint battle between Li Qingming and Wu Yuanshuo in the form of an old woman.

The trembling ground calmed down. Although the monster in front of him had no words in its howls of pain, one could still capture the meaning of pain in them.

Li Qingming naturally knew who was helping him, and he became even more ruthless when facing the tree spirit.

The state of bone strengthening is not just a slow and steady process of promoting Qi and blood to strengthen the bones and muscles. Through actual combat, using external forces to help strengthen the bones and muscles, the efficiency of bone strengthening will be faster.

The energy and blood settled as he punched, but the power of each punch was actually increasing.

Blood and energy burst out continuously, carrying with them Li Qingming's martial arts will. Although it is far from being called "fist will", it can easily suppress the strange spirit in the tree spirit.

Although the tree spirit had many vines, they could not withstand the destruction from Li Qingming. With the last punch, its entire body was completely shattered.

And when the body of the tree spirit shattered and fragments flew everywhere, Li Qingming quickly grabbed a piece of "fragment" in his hand.

The entire process of this fight can be considered as Fang Suichu tailor-making an equal enemy for the two women. He is not too weak to be challenging, nor too strong to require them to fight for their lives on the line between life and death. However, it can indeed increase the two women's practical experience and strengthen their muscles.

The fragment in Li Qingming's hand was actually a vine. It was cold to the touch and was still wriggling.

This is the 'spiritual material' dropped by the monsters, the result of the spiritual inspiration of the evil way.

Li Qingming threw the vine in his hand to Fang Suichu. Fang Suichu raised his hand and caught it steadily. Then, like a magic trick, the vine disappeared.

Li Qingming returned to the round table and exhaled a long breath. The night was quite chilly, and the breath turned into a stream of white air, which did not disperse.

When she sat back in the chair, fine beads of sweat had already overflowed from her fair forehead, making her fair skin a hint of red.

As for Wu Yuanshuo, although his face was flushed, he did not have the same intense blood and energy as Li Qingming. After all, Li Qingming was the main force in the fight just now.

Fang Suichu touched Yuan Shuo's head.

After such a long time, Fang Suichu has come to realize that it is time for Li Qingming to take the path of martial arts to enter the Tao. As for Wu Yuanshuo, to be honest, he has better talents in comprehension and sexual skills, and is more suitable to be a wizard, that is, the "Qi Refining" route.

After refining the orifices, one can use the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to release skills similar to magical powers.

With this as the foundation, one enters the realm after refining the orifices, and the prospects are obviously different from those of reaching the realm of martial arts enlightenment.

But this is not a problem. I think that when the two women entered the stage of refining the orifice, I would have already reached the next level. With my amazing wisdom, I should have figured out the magic system of refining qi.

As soon as the tree spirit died, the red light that originally filled the courtyard also disappeared.

Fresh air flows in from the outside, stirring up the originally stagnant atmosphere.

Zhuangzi quickly became dilapidated. The red lanterns became extremely mottled, and the red oil paper pasted on them was already torn and bumpy.

The same is true for the table, which has wormholes and is full of signs of decay.

Zhang Jingsheng finally woke up from his dream, looked at the rapidly withering vine fragments on the ground, and then looked at the people who came with him.

There was a look of confusion on his face.

What kind of scene did I just see?

Was the monster really killed by pure fists?

Moreover, this guy knows a little bit about fighting?

Every punch Li Qingming threw just now was packed with ferocious force. Zhang Jingsheng even subconsciously thought that every punch from this heroic woman was enough to kill a cow.

However, Zhang Jingsheng quickly came to his senses.

He stood up from his seat and bowed deeply to the three people in front of him.

His face was filled with embarrassment. The reason was simple: he had previously told the three people of Fang Suichu that he could have a chance of survival. But in the end, not only was the talisman in his arms useless, but in the end, it was still the two women who took action and destroyed the powerful monster.

"I'm sorry I didn't recognize you. Thank you all for your help."

Zhang Jingsheng now recalled the actions of Brother Fang. It was obvious that the other party was looking for the monster just now.

"It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter."

Fang Suichu waved his hand and said with a smile:

"We are destined to be together."

"However, tonight's matter is not yet over. I don't know whether you two should continue to stay here or go ahead."

Fang Suichu stared at Zhang Jingsheng with great interest, or to be more precise, at Zhang Jingsheng's arms. The thing in his arms was very interesting.

I originally thought it was some unique weird thing, but I didn't expect it to be the official seal of the imperial court of this world.

The feudal court of this world can actually be regarded as a Taoist sect. Just like the academy in every state, it is the direct lineage specially trained by the "Academy".

The relationship is like the division between the inside and outside of the Jin family. The inside is the Daomai, which serves as a stable cornerstone, while the outside is the operating organization that provides resources for the Daomai.

"Don't worry about the dangers of traveling at night. The only truly bizarre creature around here is this one."

After staring for a while, Fang Suichu looked away and looked at Zhang Jingsheng's face:

"There's no need to be afraid of ordinary monsters or wild beasts, as long as you have the talisman in your arms."

After hearing Fang Suichu's words, Zhang Jingsheng hesitated for a moment and asked:

"You said this matter is not yet resolved. I wonder what you mean?"

"Of course it's this wedding banquet. Although the greedy dryad used some magic to decorate this place, the 'wedding banquet' it mentioned is indeed a real event."

Behind Zhuangzi, there is a strange inspiration that comes from the same source as the tree spirit. I think it is the "daughter" who is getting married.

This is great, it can attract a few more monsters.

After hearing Fang Suichu's words, Zhang Jingsheng suddenly realized that he was indeed unlucky tonight and almost got lost in the scene of chaos.

But I was lucky, because when I encountered the monsters, I also met a master along the way.

Although his origins are unclear, he might be from the Taoist lineage nearby.

Chapter 83: Mr. Fang... So Gentle

The way to be an official and what to do when taking office in a local government were all guided by officials from the Ministry of Revenue before Zhang Jingsheng got the official position and was sent to a remote place.

One of them is to establish good relations with local Taoist sects.

Since ancient times, imperial power has never extended to the countryside, and in this world, imperial power has many limitations. After all, the entire human civilization system is built on the basis of supporting the practice of strange ways.

Zhang Jingsheng simply thought that Fang Suichu and his two sisters were practitioners of the nearby Taoist sect.

Since the other party dares to stay here and wait for other monsters to come, he naturally has the corresponding confidence.

Staying here would help you build good relationships with the other party, which would be beneficial.

In Zhang Fu's terrified eyes, which almost made him say, "Let's run away quickly. I can't bear the same situation as before," Zhang Jingsheng replied:

"I want to stay here and see what happens next."

In addition to wanting to establish good relationships with these three practitioners, Zhang Jingsheng was naturally curious.

Unlike the common people who had only heard of the Guidao but had never come into contact with it - most of those who had come into contact with it had died. Zhang Jingsheng was an official after all, and he had a certain understanding of the Guidao.

While there is fear, there is also a rebellious curiosity.

"it is good."

Fang Suichu was not surprised to hear Zhang Jingsheng's answer.

He just nodded, then stood up from the table without saying a word and walked to the back of the yard.

Li Qingming and Wu Yuanshuo naturally followed Fang Suichu tacitly.

Although Zhang Jingsheng was puzzled, he still signaled Zhang Fu to stand up with his eyes, and then followed him.

After passing through several corridors and courtyards, the group finally arrived at the backyard.

Before he even stepped into the backyard, Zhang Jingsheng smelled an extremely strong stench of decay.

What came into view next was a scene so disgusting that the mere sight was enough to shock one's spirit.

In the backyard, there was a layer of "soil" three inches high.

The soil was dark in color, tightly clumping together, with white stones scattered throughout. Greenish-yellow pus was seeping out of the soil.

A fine buzzing sound filled the courtyard.

Countless flies were flying in the backyard.

The emergence of those big-headed flies even has the raised outline of a human face.

Zhang Jingsheng's face turned pale in an instant.

Zhang Fu held onto the door frame and started vomiting.

That black layer was not soil at all, but flesh that had begun to rot and was oozing yellowish corpse fluid, while the white "stones" in between were bone fragments.

At least a hundred corpses were piled up in this not-so-big yard.

These corpses were even deliberately broken into pieces, the flesh turned into minced meat, and the bones crushed into little finger-sized pieces and scattered among them.

"Because it's dark, I didn't plan to play this dungeon."

Zhang Jingsheng heard a voice coming from the mouth of the young man standing in front of the soil of rotten flesh.

"We came across a village. It wasn't very big, with only about 20 or 30 households."
