Inside the room, the Netherworld power left behind by Leng Tianpeng after his death was slowly dissipating.
Xia Tianqiong didn't want him to die; only he could tell her what the glimmer of hope was.
Quickly review the memories you just received regarding the "True Spirit Dao Scripture".
"When a person dies, he becomes a ghost; when a ghost dies, he becomes a ghost; when a ghost dies, he becomes a ghost; when a ghost dies, he becomes a ghost; when a ghost dies, he becomes a ghost. The ghost is the source of the Dao. The Dao gives birth to one, and one gives birth to all things. The cycle of life and death is endless... A single point of true spirit pervades the entirety of life and death. The true spirit is indestructible, so there is no need to discuss life and death."
This is a general outline at the beginning of the "True Spirit Dao Scripture," which Xia Tianqiong managed to understand despite some guesswork.
However, the real content that followed was too mysterious, and he himself would find it difficult to understand in a short time.
Fortunately, Xia Tianqiong had Leng Tianpeng's understanding of this Taoist scripture in his memory, so he directly checked this part of the content and quickly gained a general understanding.
The entire text of the "True Spirit Dao Scripture" discusses the concept of "True Spirit" and the corresponding techniques for its application.
When a person dies, they become a ghost; when a ghost dies, it becomes a venomous creature; when a venomous creature dies, it becomes a stagnation creature; and so on, eventually forming a closed loop.
Within this closed loop, there exists something called the "True Spirit," which runs through the entire process, neither born nor dying.
It can be said that it is the origin of life.
When a human dies, their soul dissipates, but the true spirit within does not disappear; instead, it transforms into a strange entity. When a strange entity dies, its consciousness disappears, but the true spirit still does not vanish; instead, it enters the next cycle of reincarnation.
Simply put, the human body is the vessel of the soul, and the soul is the vessel of the true spirit.
The eerie spirit is a vessel of consciousness, consciousness is a vessel of the true spirit, and so on; every link in the chain is a vessel of the true spirit.
The physical body may perish, but the true spirit endures.
The so-called resurrection technique utilizes this characteristic to re-condense the vessel and retain the "true spirit," preventing it from entering the next cycle of reincarnation.
Xia Tianqiong quickly finished reading the contents of the "True Spirit Dao Scripture" and suddenly had an insight.
This scripture seems to be related to the power of reincarnation!
With just a little thought, one can show signs of sudden enlightenment.
But there was no time to think about it. He quickly forced himself to hold back and then began to cast the resurrection spell.
As Xia Tianqiong reached out with his left hand, the Netherworld power that had been dissipating after Leng Tianpeng's death suddenly stopped dissipating and instead gathered together.
As if time had reversed, these nether forces slowly coalesced into a human form.
However, the human form was very ethereal, with only a faint outline.
This process is the process of reshaping the ghost body.
However, because much of the Netherworld power has dissipated, it is now impossible to create a complete ghost body, and additional Netherworld power is needed.
So Xia Tianqiong took out five or six hundred taels of Netherworld Gold and directly used it to create the ghost body.
During the shaping process, his right hand was also busy.
His right hand formed a strange hand seal, then suddenly shot out, piercing directly into the void in front of him.
When he pulled his hand back, it was already clenched into a fist.
It seemed like he had nothing in his hands, but in reality, Leng Tianpeng's "true spirit" had already been captured.
The true spirit is formless and invisible, and cannot be perceived.
If Xia Tianqiong hadn't mastered this secret technique, he wouldn't have been able to retrieve his true spirit.
In a short while, Leng Tianpeng's ghostly body had been completely reconstructed.
Floating in the air, eyes closed, like a corpse.
Xia Tianqiong reached her right hand to the head of the monster, then suddenly thrust it in, placing the true spirit inside, before withdrawing her right hand.
This isn't over yet; one last step is needed.
Using this secret technique comes at a price, and that price is one's lifespan.
Fortunately, Xia Tianqiong doesn't lack this. He has the Life-Gambling Ghost Technique, which can convert Netherworld Gold into lifespan.
So he began transferring a large amount of lifespan into the demonic body.
One tael of Nether Gold can be converted into a year's lifespan. After consuming more than three thousand taels of Nether Gold, Leng Tianpeng, who was floating in the air, suddenly opened his eyes.
This means the resurrection was successful.
Xia Tianqiong looked at Leng Tianpeng with anticipation, "Tell me quickly, what is that glimmer of hope?"
Leng Tianpeng slowly landed on the ground, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes, along with a touch of numbness.
"What glimmer of hope?"
Xia Tianqiong was stunned on the spot, and he also knew that this secret technique had flaws.
After being resurrected, you will lose a lot of memories, only retaining those from the most recent period.
Logically speaking, one should remember what just happened, and should remember what was left unsaid.
"So what do you still remember now?"
Leng Tianpeng thought for a moment and said truthfully, "I have all the memories from when I went to the mortal world to find you until we made a deal just now. I also remember that I was erased by the power of the rules because of some words I said, but I don't remember those words."
Xia Tianqiong sighed deeply. This might be related to the power of the rules. It seems there's no way to find the answer from Leng Tianpeng.
He felt a little disappointed, but then he thought that reviving a cunning general would add another powerful force to his ranks, so it wasn't a complete loss.
“Patriarch Leng, everything in the past is over. Although the Void Clan is gone, your Leng family has been preserved here with me. Why don’t you form a contract with me?”
"I would rather die than be a slave."
Leng Tianpeng shook his head, his expression arrogant, and then said, "Although you have resurrected me, I will not be grateful to you. On the contrary, I think you have done something unnecessary."
As the head of the Void Clan and the Leng family, I still have to save face.
"I know you won't let me go, and I will never make a pact with you. So let me die! That's the best ending."
He spoke these words casually, yet his tone conveyed an unwavering determination.
