Chapter 577: Immortality, Dirty Method
The three-headed blue-eyed king dragon dragged the chariot and passed over the territory of the wild god.
In the blink of an eye, the night is over and dawn is about to break.
The morning light rose from the far horizon and swept across the vast and rugged land in the blink of an eye. The stone pillars standing in the wasteland of God's condemnation were carved into layers of sharp shadows by the morning light.
In the place where the chariot was lowered, Yu Cang had already finished questioning Fa Shi.
Fa Shi told Yu Cang a lot of information about the National Master, which gave him a relatively basic understanding of the current situation in the Great Royal Court.
Of course, Yu Cang didn’t believe all of it...this information could only be used as a reference.
Qi'er could sense Fashi's emotions, but this reincarnated spirit was quite capable. Not only were his emotional changes very subtle, but it was also basically impossible to judge whether he was lying or not based on them.
Therefore, in order to know the real situation in the King's Court, he had to go there in person to see it.
Furthermore, judging from last night's appearance, Salang showed no concern for Fashi's life or death. This guy's status in the Desolate Sect must not be as high as he imagined. In this case, even if he wasn't lying, Yu Cang didn't dare to fully trust the information he provided.
In short, just adapt to circumstances.
On the side, Fashi leaned against the side of the chariot, with sweat on his forehead.
He had been wearing the Absolute Pressure Chain for the entire night... In this state, it was inevitable that he would sweat a little.
But fortunately... I survived.
He told Yu Cang as much information as he could. From beginning to end, Yu Cang's expression did not change much, and he could not see what Yu Cang was thinking.
The emperor's heart is as deep as the abyss.
He thought of this word.
It was hard to imagine that he felt the pressure as if he was facing an emperor in front of a young man like Yu Cang.
He still didn't know what piece of information Yu Cang heard from him that made him decide to let him go temporarily.
At this time, the morning light shone into the place where the chariot was lowered. Fashi could not help but raise his head and look at the ground in the rising sunlight.
"Huh?" Fashi's eyes brightened slightly, "Donor... the area beyond the blessed land is just ahead."
Yu Cang lowered his head as he was told, and sure enough, the dark ground not far away came to an abrupt end, revealing dim yellow sand.
Seeing this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The pressure of traveling through the God-Wounded Wasteland is still too great.
Even though he looks very domineering as he drives his chariot in the sky, he will be exposed if any of the legendary figures comes to him at this moment.
He doesn't have many means to use here. Although Feng's two sword strikes are powerful, they are only two sword strikes after all, and these two sword strikes have no special effects. They are simply powerful, with a wide range, and can cut anything. If he encounters that kind of wild beast that cannot be killed, he will be at a loss.
Fortunately, perhaps because of what Salan did before coming, they did not encounter any threatening wild beasts during the journey in the second half of the night. The few that occasionally appeared could be dealt with by the machine guns on the tanks.
Thinking of this, Yu Cang's mind moved, and the three giant dragons in front of him immediately dived down and dragged the entire chariot to the ground.
call……
After landing, the three giant dragons slowly solidified and turned into stone statues again. The chaotic clouds and mist in the place where the chariot was lowered gradually melted into the air. The black background became transparent, and the three stone statues turned into clouds and mist and drifted away.
Yu Cang jumped from the stone platform to the ground, then turned around and looked back the way he came.
The pitch-black ground stopped not far behind him, and the boundary between yellow and black was very clear on the ground. However, this boundary was not static. The black earth continued to spread above the ground, as if... the yellow sand was being swallowed by the black soil.
A thoughtful look flashed in Yu Cang's eyes.
The desolate land condemned by God is constantly spreading.
This spreading process involves many aspects, and the specific principles are still unknown.
However, after seeing the strange seed in the second layer of the central starry sky vision, he looked at the process of the edge expansion... and suddenly had an intuition.
It seems that this place is constantly absorbing a certain "rhythm" from the surrounding environment, gathering these rhythms into the seeds, and accelerating the gestation of the seeds.
The environment where the specific rhythm is extracted will turn black and become part of the God-condemned wasteland.
But what rhythm is it absorbing?
Starlight appeared in Yu Cang's eyes. He tried to observe the difference in rhythm between the two environments from the perspective of the starry sky, but... he couldn't see it.
The difference in rhythm between the starry sky vision on both sides was so huge that after a moment's observation, he couldn't figure out which rhythm was sucked away.
If it was so easy to see, then the people in the association would have reached a conclusion long ago and there would be no need for him to come.
Thinking of this, Yu Cang turned around and asked Fashi:
"Fashi... your 'Blessed Land' has been expanding in all directions. One day it will reach the foot of the Changsheng tent... Aren't you worried?"
"...Immeasurable Immortality." Fashi chanted a Buddhist mantra, "This land...does not extend into the Immortality Tent."
"You are quite confident."
"I simply trust Changsheng." Fashi paused before adding, "Well... we've already left the blessed land. I wonder if you could remove this lock from my hand? You can't possibly ask me to return to the Great King's Court with this..."
Yu Cang nodded and said, "Major General Du, thank you for your help."
really.
In the God's Condemned Wasteland, the Chain of Absolute Suppression was put on Fa Shi mainly because at that time no one could exert their full strength. If Fa Shi wanted to launch a sneak attack at this time, it would be very troublesome.
But now... Du Yanran and Qiu Jindong can use the full power of their respective decks at will. Even Du Yanran may not be able to defeat a level seven magic release, let alone Qiu Jindong.
If Fa Shi returned to the Changsheng Tent with the Chain of Absolute Suppression, anyone with a discerning eye would be able to see that he had been captured by Yu Cang, so there would be no need to talk about him being an undercover agent.
As soon as Du Yanran raised his hand, the absolute pressure lock on Fashi's wrist turned into a streak of light and returned to his fingertips.
Then, Fashi staggered, and his body, which had been tense for a long time, relaxed in an instant. He trembled involuntarily for a while before returning to normal.
Fashi reached out and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve.
"This humble monk...this humble monk thanks the donor."
"No need to thank me, just do what you should do." Yu Cang waved his hand.
After taking a short rest in the God-condemned wasteland, they boarded the military chariot and continued on their journey.
It’s not far from here to the Changsheng Tent.
Qiu Jindong sat in the passenger seat, hugged his arms, closed his eyes and rested, but in fact his mind was highly concentrated, his perception ability spread out, and he was aware of the surrounding situation at all times.
Salang died in the attack, and the Great Royal Court probably won't let it go. It is possible that they will encounter any attacks again on the rest of the journey.
The chariot was driving on the land. Gradually, the yellow sand dissipated a lot, and bits of green began to appear on the loess. As everyone moved forward, they gradually connected into one piece... It seemed that they were about to drive from the "desert" into the "grassland".
This means that we are closer to the Longevity Tent.
Inside the car
The sound of swords humming around Gu Jieshuang had gradually faded away, but she still hadn't woken up, and Tai Chu still maintained her original posture... but he took the time to put his hood back on.
"...Speaking of which," Yu Cang suddenly said, "The Hunter Clan's card-banning science is quite advanced, right?"
Fashi: "...In the Changsheng Tent, there is no such thing as a 'banned card'. Everything is a gift from Changsheng."
Yu Cang remained noncommittal: "You know what I'm talking about."
“…It’s natural.”
"Please introduce yourself. I'm also very curious."
This is true.
It seems that among the hunters, from top to bottom, using banned cards has become a very common practice and will not attract any attention or hostility.
Compared to Changsheng Village, this place is most likely to become the "holy land" for card banners, but the Hunter Clan is a closed-door country and generally does not allow outsiders to come in. Forcing entry will only lead to hunting down by the Great King's Court, and the means used may be even more cruel than those used by the Yan Country Association... Therefore, the Undead Village is more suitable for card banners to roam around.
On the Blue Planet, Yan Country is probably the only country that has an absolute zero tolerance policy towards card bans.
In other places, banned cards are just a form of strength... and because of some of their excellent features, they are even encouraged to develop by the authorities.
Regarding this point... I can only say that it must be in line with Emperor Xing's wishes.
In this regard, although Yan State has a special treatment bureau, it is still inevitably a little behind...
"Among the Hunters, this is called 'the art of immortality', or 'the golden body of immortality'."
Yu Cang narrowed his eyes: "The art of immortality?"
It is true that everything is closely related to longevity.
"Naturally... As the name suggests, this is a power created and passed down by Changsheng. In my youth, I had some superficial understanding of Yan Country. I imagine that the banned cards you have there are no different from Changsheng Technique."
At this moment, Wen Renge snorted disdainfully, "Ha... Using living people as sacrifices to pursue that pitiful, unstable power—such a dirty trick. Only those of you hunters, the so-called 'immortality', would confidently put your names on it."
Since ancient times, soul card masters in Yan Country have always walked on the grand road!
Even the most ancient Flame Emperor, in that primitive and barbaric era six thousand years ago, created the Flame Emperor Black Bird totem by "gathering the essence of heaven and earth" without a trace of blood. Later myths also mostly used this as a benchmark and would not commit the sin of killing.
The True Blood Arsenal of Emperor Wu, which is based on the Emperor's Seal, can be considered a form of evil.
If there really is a method of banning cards that has been passed down... it must not be made public. At least, it is impossible for any myth to use his own name to name it, as if he is afraid that others will not know about it.
In this regard, Wen Ren Ge, as a Yan person, is absolutely qualified to show contempt.
Upon hearing this, Fashi clasped his hands together, his expression showing no sign of fluctuation: "...what Changsheng taught me is naturally not that unbearable."
"Tell me about it," Yu Cang said. "I'm also curious about how this longevity technique avoids 'pseudo-personality disorder'."
No matter how chaotic the hunting tribe is, it is still a country.
If everyone learns to ban cards, then once it gets out of control, it is likely to cause a series of chain reactions... In this case, there will be no order at all, let alone being called a country.
Could it be that the hunters have already been able to control pseudo-personality disorders?
"I don't know what this pseudo-personality disorder is, but there is indeed a risk of going astray during the practice of longevity... This path of cultivation also requires extremely high levels of understanding from the practitioner."
Seeing him beating around the bush, Yu Cang simply asked directly, "Does your immortality technique require humans as materials?"
"Human? You mean human pills, right?... We do need some human pills, but making human pills is the best way to repay our past life debts. In the Changsheng Account, there are many who are vying to become human pills..."
Yu Cang narrowed his eyes slightly.
Human Pill.
As soon as I heard this word... it had a bloody taste.
If my guess is correct, this should refer to the elixir made from living people...How could there be people who are willing to do such a cruel thing?
At this moment, he didn't know whether to say that the Changsheng Sect was cruel or the Hunters were ignorant.
On the side, Wen Ren Ge had already frowned. He snorted coldly, looked away and stopped talking.
"If I use this so-called human pill as a cultivation material, won't the power I gain get out of control?"
"...There is indeed a possibility of becoming possessed, but the probability is extremely low. As long as you practice sincerely, you won't become possessed."
"How did you do that?"
"Well... I don't know what you are talking about." Fashi shook his head repeatedly.
Seeing his confused look, Yu Cang frowned.
Did he really not know? Or was he afraid it would be too bloody for them to handle, and was he going to rip his relationship with him right then and there?
"...Have you ever used Rendan?"
"Of course I haven't used it."
“…”
Fashi answered decisively, but Yu Cang didn't believe it.
This guy must have thought that the Yan people couldn't accept this, so he deliberately didn't mention the details.
But to be honest, just these few words were enough to make him feel nauseous.
Yu Cang thought for a moment, still trying to think of what to say to pry open Fa Shi's mouth. At this moment.
"Nothing surprising... just some temporary solutions."
Tai Hina suddenly spoke.
Yu Cang looked over, his eyes brightening: "Senior... is Jie Shuang's comprehension over?"
"It's none of my business, but she still needs some time to comprehend it."
"I see..."
"I've been inside the Changsheng Tent before," Tai Chu said. "It was filled with smoke and miasma... that's a compliment."
The corner of Fashi's mouth twitched, and he laughed dryly, "Donor, you are joking."
"The so-called immortality technique isn't even a forbidden card technique; it's simply something Changsheng created to facilitate plundering. If Changsheng were still around, every single one of those who practiced the immortality technique would become part of Changsheng's power.
"To put it bluntly, those who practice the art of immortality believe they are using 'human pills' to cultivate, but in reality, they themselves are the immortal's human pills... They actively sacrifice themselves to help the immortal plunder power. This immortal has mastered the card ban trick."
Hearing this, Fashi's eyes widened slightly: "You... who are you? How can you say such things about immortality..."
"Hmph." Tai Chu sneered, but didn't say anything else.
Immortality?
If he was just a card banner with dirty methods, she wouldn't look down on him so much considering his strength.
But, if he wanted to be a card banner and act so high and mighty, and establish some kind of Buddhahood for himself...
Just scum.
