Cultivating Immortality in a World of Chaos - Chapter 1058

[Chapter 1055 Yin Dog]

On the bookshelf.

Various ancient books, fragments, and picture books were piled together in a mess.

In addition, there is a pile of miscellaneous things on the bottom shelf of the bookshelf.

Including a broken sword, a bloody wooden fish, several unknown minerals, and a scroll depicting an evil spirit, etc.

They were all carefully collected by my predecessor when he was interested in studying strange stories. There is a thrilling story behind each item – although most of them are made up.

Fang Xi didn’t care about all that and directly pulled out three books, which were “Records of Strange Things”, “Records of the Desolate West”, and “Suiyuan Pu”.

Among them, “Records of Strange Things” and “Records of the Desolate West” are both ancient thread-bound books, with pale yellow pages and some traces of water damage and insect bites.

Most of the descriptions are of strange people and events that have been passed down by word of mouth. Moreover, because the author does not seem to have studied writing seriously, the records are very scattered and mixed with many meaningless words and sentences, which makes readers feel sleepy at first glance.

I just flipped through a few pages casually, then felt upset and threw it aside.

The copy of Suiyuanpu looked even worse. It was just a few torn pages, barely bound into a booklet.

The paper is smooth and seems to be made of parchment.

Fang Xi touched it and his expression changed slightly.

The paper is smooth, thick, and crisp. When you touch it with your fingertips, you feel an indescribable pleasure.

It was like caressing the most delicate skin of a 16 or 17-year-old girl…

“It’s made from human skin…”

He said to himself that he knew the origin of the paper. It was human skin paper!

Faintly, as his fingertips rubbed the lines on the parchment, Fang Xi seemed to hear the soft moans of a young girl, and his mind suddenly fell into some kind of pink dream.

The scenery there is so beautiful that it is really not worth telling to outsiders.

Fang Xi was absorbed in it for a moment, then sneered: “A mere illusion of beauty is trying to disturb my mind?”

His eyes were extremely clear. When he looked at “Suiyuanpu” again, he found that although the words on it were still the original words, they seemed to have changed their meaning.

I seem to have stared at it for so long that I have forgotten the original meaning and pronunciation of those words…

I even began to imagine the origin of this fragment of the book.

It seems that a long time ago, there was a monk named “Suiyuan Master”, who was originally a famous chef in the world. Later, he took medicine to become a monk and collected many recipes to compile this “Suiyuan Pu”… But later, Suiyuan Master met with a disaster, and “Suiyuan Pu” was scattered.

These few pages of fragments only record a few recipes for taking secret medicines.

One of them is the secret medicine recipe of the Yinshan monk.

Of course, if we adjust it according to the previous interpretation, it will be a waste of time in the end.

“Take three drops of tears from a fifty-year-old white cow before it dies, mix them with two leaves of the ‘Ghost Face Willow’, add six qian of cinnabar, three qian of pearl powder, and mix them with rootless water… After taking it, you will gain the ‘Yin Yang Eyes’, which allows you to distinguish between yin and yang, and communicate with ghosts and gods… You will be promoted to the ninth rank [Feng Shui Master]…”

“Ninth-rank Feng Shui Master?”

Fang Xi’s mind moved: “Is this the extraordinary system of this world?”

He took a look and found that there was another article at the end, which was a secret medicine that could only be taken by ninth-grade [Feng Shui Masters]. After taking it, one could be promoted to eighth-grade [Feng Shui Masters]…

After that, it was completely incomplete, with only one name for the seventh rank – [Yin Yang Scholar]!
“From the description, this ninth rank [Feng Shui Scholar] is probably of average strength, with at most a pair of spiritual eyes that can read Feng Shui… He doesn’t starve to death by performing arts while traveling around the world.”

Fang Xi curled his lips.

It’s a pity that even for a Feng Shui master, it’s not easy to get promoted. Cows usually die of old age in twenty to thirty years. It’s quite rare to find an old white cow that can live over fifty years old.

What’s more, I had never heard of the ‘Ghost Face Willow’ before.

He flipped through it and found that there were several secret medicines recorded at the back, but they were not used for promotion. Instead, they were talismans for treatment and even for stopping children’s night crying. Most of the materials were very simple, but they required the addition of “extraordinary power” in the end.

Fang Xi estimated that this strange power was the extraordinary power possessed by a ninth-grade Feng Shui Master.

Without the involvement of such “supernatural power”, those other healing secret medicines and talismans would be like the moon in the water and the flower in the mirror.

“Huh?”

When Fang Xi turned to the end, another secret medicine for advancement emerged in his mind.

However, this time the prescription is only of the ninth grade.

“Twenty drops of water ghost blood, one solitary grave flower, three water grasses, four ounces of gypsum…mix with rootless water…after taking it, you can gain the ‘power of disaster’ and be promoted to the ninth rank [Water Controller]…”

“Water ghost, lonely grave flower?”

He murmured.

As for the water ghost, I wonder if the monster that almost killed me counts?
The solitary grave flower is rumored to be an ominous flower, but he has seen a few of them on the mass grave.

This flower is useless and is associated with unclean things, so no one picks it.

If I want, as long as I am careful to avoid that corpse-eating fox, it shouldn’t be a problem.

Gypsum is available in grocery stores, and rootless water is simpler, it is rainwater.

“This otherworldly elixir method is really interesting. Can it be cured simply by mixing it?”

Fang Xi smiled.

At this moment, he seemed to have no better choice…

Becoming a ninth-rank [Water Controller], controlling the ‘Power of Misfortune’, one can immediately achieve transcendence, and then gradually climb until one can activate the realm of laws!
“The gods of this world are not that simple…”

“This kind of cultivation path often requires you to worship gods in the end, and there may be pitfalls in the future…”

“Although I am an incarnation, I don’t want to die in such a confused way…”

Fang Xi complained that he just remembered these contents and had some understanding of the extraordinary ways of this world, and then looked at the pile of debris.

Things like broken swords and wooden fish… are all just mundane items. The predecessor was really badly cheated.

Even the picture scroll depicting the evil spirit was actually ordinary, and the artist’s skills were even somewhat poor…

He picked up a piece of ore.

The ore is pitch black with a hint of purple.

Because it is very heavy, it is also regarded as a kind of strange story and was collected by the predecessor.

When Fang Xi took it in his hand, he felt something different.

Somehow, the piece of ore in my hand seemed to be alive and was still breathing.

A hazy illusion loomed over.

Read the error-free version on 6Ⅹ9Ⅹ bookⅩ bar! 6Ⅹ9 book bar first publishes a novel.

“interesting……”

Fang Xi’s lips curled up slightly.

The extraordinary ways of this world are not only dangerous, but also seem to carry all kinds of madness, like a demon in the heart.

Ordinary mortals will fall into madness if they are not careful.

Of course, it is simply a joke to think that this little emotion can shake the state of mind of a Taoist master.

“However, if you don’t let yourself fall into hallucinations, it seems difficult to see the origin of this object?”

Thinking of this, Fang Xi relaxed a little.

Then, his mind seemed to merge with the ore, and in his vague thoughts, he seemed to see a hound running out of the underworld.

This black dog is almost as tall as a floor, its body is as big as a house, and its eyes are as big as water tanks.

It devoured mortals in big mouthfuls, and was then torn into pieces by a certain ray of light.

A piece of bone was buried in the earth, and after who knows how many years of gestation, it turned into the strange mineral in Fang Xi’s hand.

Fang Xi looked at the other party’s pitch-black hair and ferocious fangs… a piece of information suddenly emerged in his mind: “The ‘Yin Dog’ from the underworld has the ability to travel through the underworld and loves to eat humans the most…”

“The bones of the Yin dog!”

He looked at the ore in his hand and gave it an appropriate name.

Just when Fang Xi wanted to learn more about the function of this thing, there was a sudden noise from the outside world.

His ears twitched, then he smiled slightly and walked out of the room.

“Song San, who beat you like this?”

A man who looked like a scholar was leading the people from the dental clinic into the yard. When he saw Song San lying on the ground, he was shocked.

“Of course it’s me!”

Fang Xi opened the door and walked out. He recognized the scholar as Fang Chengdong, a distant relative of his previous life.

Seeing him, Fang Chengdong was shocked again: “Fang Xi?! You… aren’t you dead?”

“You just died!”

Fang Xi sneered, “I just had a shortness of breath yesterday, and you threw me into a mass grave. We haven’t settled the score yet, so why are you hiring the Liu family’s maid again today? Are you planning to sell my property?”

The Liu family’s wife is from the pawnbroker business. She hangs around in this area, so naturally she knows a lot of people.

Seeing Fang Xi was safe and sound, she immediately smiled and said, “No, no… I was just dragged here by Fang Chengdong… I am so happy to see that Brother Fang is fine today. I will treat you to a drink in the future…”

Although she wanted to get something for nothing, she also knew that the house had an owner. If Fang Xi died, everything would be fine. If she didn’t die, even if she got the house deed, she wouldn’t be able to get through the government! As soon as
the Liu family’s wife retreated, Fang Chengdong’s face turned pale and blue, and he was speechless for a long time.

“Fang Chengdong, I remember that you relied on my family’s guarantee to study in the study of Master Gu in the city, right?”

Fang Xi sneered: “Later, in order to support your living expenses, you borrowed money from my family. I remember every penny. Do you want to calculate it together?”

“No, no…”

Fang Chengdong shook his hands wildly. He didn’t expect that his usually muddle-headed little brother seemed like a different person.

At this time, his forehead was covered with sweat, and he ran away without caring about Song San who was still lying on the ground.

When Song San saw this scene, his face was filled with despair…

Fang Xi was too lazy to care about him and went straight back to the room to start comprehending the ‘Yin Dog Bone’.

There actually is an underworld in this world, which is very consistent with the law of reincarnation that he is most proficient in.

If one comprehends it as soon as possible, perhaps when one is at the seventh, eighth, or even ninth level, one will be able to trigger a trace of the power of the law.

By then, even though the world is so big, you can go everywhere.

Song San wailed for a long time, but seeing that no one paid attention to him, he glanced at Fang Xi’s room with resentment on his face and crawled out.

A figure appeared outside, it was Fang Chengdong!
When he saw Fang Xi didn’t come out, he ran over immediately, carried Song San and left…
