Chapter 40: Corpse Transmutation
The moment Yang He chose to inherit, the Taoist boy's shadow gradually overlapped with his own.

His experience with Gui Fuqiu flashed through his mind, as if the two of them were originally one. The seal in the Niwan Palace flickered faintly.

The pupil ghost opened between the eyebrows.

In addition to the one Yin meridian in the main body, there are four more that are derived.

Compared to exchanging Yin Veins, inheritance does not require time-consuming refining of Yin Veins. Then the Yin Qi in the courtyard surged and gathered towards the wing room.

Meow~~

The black cat pricked up its ears excitedly, greedily sharing the Yin energy.

Yang He frowned slightly upon seeing this, and forcibly suppressed the pupil ghost's throbbing, so as not to make too much noise and attract the attention of the evil ghost monk.

Moreover, without resurrection, the Yin energy content in the main world is too low.

Sunset and moonrise.

Yang He inhaled and exhaled Yin Qi in the side room until the five Yin meridians of Tong Gui were completely stabilized.

As the pupil ghost approaches the nine perfections of the weak ghost stage, it is obvious that it is becoming mysterious, especially the bloodshot veins intertwined in the whites of the eyes.

It seems to have a different kind of Taoist charm.

"Well."

Yang He groaned, and as soon as the pupil ghost's previous breath ended, the power ghost appeared in his body. Not wanting to be outdone, the pupil ghost mobilized the Yin Qi.

He couldn't help but feel a little nervous, fearing that the two ghosts would retaliate and cause him to go insane.

But Yang He quickly gave up the idea. The power ghost showed no discomfort at all and allowed the pupil ghost to establish a dominant position.

"Hehehe, it's good to be afraid."

The ghost hand was trembling, obviously facing the horror of the main world.

Yang He refined it through the grafting method, and the power ghost attached itself to the ribs in the form of cartilage, thus saving the need for internal alchemy to suppress it.

Before he could catch his breath, the corpse-transmigration immortal body followed.

The chill ran down my spine to the top of my head.

Yang He rolled his eyes, and the three yang fires went out at the same time. His body temperature dropped sharply, his organs lost their activity, and corpse spots appeared on his skin.

The pitch-black Yin Fire ignited.

Yang He fell into a trance. He could feel that his body was on the verge of death and his life was gone, but he relied on his corpse-reincarnation body to keep his soul from dispersing.

“Yang fire uses yang energy as fuel, while yin fire uses yang life as fuel.”

"Once it burns out, you will die!"

Yang He opened his mouth wide, and his corpse-transformation body quietly disappeared. The moment the corpse disappeared, the Yin Fire turned back into Yang Fire, and vitality slowly grew.

After a long time, the fear of death yet not being stiff finally faded away.

Yang He regained consciousness and immediately realized the benefits brought by his corpse-transmutation immortal body. Even without using the pupil ghost, the Yin Qi was still being inhaled and exhaled with his breathing.

Over time, the body's resistance to the erosion of Yin energy will continue to increase.

"If I want my corpse-reincarnated immortal body to be complete, I will probably have to continue exploring Qianyuan Mountain."

Yang He exhaled foul air.

He secretly communicated with the powerful ghost, and the ghost hand behind him grabbed the copper coin sword.

The ghost hand can change between real and virtual, and the copper coin sword can also be half real and half virtual, allowing the sword to penetrate solid objects and directly hurt ghosts and monsters.

"As expected of Taiyi Zhenren, the Yin instrument refined by the immortal is indeed extraordinary."

"And the ghost hand seems to be able to affect itself."

The ghost hand pinched Yang He's right arm, and the flesh shriveled and looked eerie. Then it could ignore the quilt and penetrate into the bed.

"Cough cough cough."

Yang He's face turned pale as he loosened his right arm. The blood circulation in his right arm was poor and the surface of the skin was covered with purple bruises. He could not exert any strength for a short time.

"Except for its drawbacks, the power ghost has almost no disadvantages..."

It’s horrifying to think about cutting off the third arm and refining it every hundred days.

"and many more."

"My ghost hand is independent and can it block the evil spirits and solve the problem?"

Yang He hesitated again and again, and the pupil ghost opened in his chest. The Yin energy eroded the blood vessels and meridians connecting to the power ghost until they died.

The pupils of the ghost closed.

The power ghost escaped from control but did not do anything naughty, and then the blood vessels and meridians grew again. "It works!" Yang He could feel that the power ghost was more like an arm, but it was a bit hard on him, and his chest was bruised.

Yang He felt sore all over, and the experiment almost cost him half his life.

He closed his eyes and rested, planning his next move. He didn't know how much time had passed when the black cat suddenly made a slight and rapid cry.

Followed by.

Yang He heard the sound of a rat crawling in the cracks of the courtyard wall.

He did not open his eyes immediately, the pupil ghost stopped absorbing the Yin energy, and the surging Yin energy in the courtyard returned to calm.

squeak squeak.

Yang He's clairvoyance could enhance his five senses, and he could hear the mouse speaking mixed with some human language.

"Strange, there is no abnormality in the Yin Qi, but there is clearly a strange smell nearby."

"I can't find anyone. Is there any monk who has been revived for the second time in Peibai City?"

The mouse gradually crawled away.

Yang He had a stern expression, he understood that the mice were related to the livestock herders, and the other party was obviously looking for him, and it was very likely that the information was revealed by Song Zhi.

"Fortunately, I didn't come into contact with Song Zhi at that time."

"but……"

Yang He looked out the window and saw a full moon hanging high in the sky. The heavy rain had not stopped yet and the water was already half a meter deep.

Ripples spread out.

Just by taking a quick look with his spiritual vision, he could see at least forty or fifty hungry ghosts wandering in the water.

People are complaining that the stench in Peibai City is getting worse and worse. Perhaps it won’t be long before evil ghosts appear in the world.

There was murderous intent in Yang He's eyes, and the joy of his sudden improvement in cultivation was gone.

"Only when the evil ghost monk dies can Peibai City be safe."

[Qianyuan Mountain: 0/1 (4%)]

"Qianyuan Mountain needs to be replenished about half a month."

"I must obtain new worldly items immediately. I don't have time to deal with them. I need to reach the evil ghost stage before the evil ghost monks cause trouble."

Yang He stared towards the direction of the market entrance, and the century-old turbot was still there.

He had heard before that the stomachs and bones of the century-old turbot were difficult to sell, so the various chambers of commerce had temporarily put the auction on hold.

Meow~~

Yang He stroked the black cat's head and took out the copper coin sword for blood refining.

At midnight.

"Haha, I really don't have the strength to threaten you now, but it doesn't matter. It's still easy to cause you some trouble."

"When you have the energy to pay attention to me again, who knows who will be the prey."

Yang He put away the copper coin sword and left the earthen house. At this moment, the city was dead silent. The squeaking of mice could be heard, and people deliberately avoided them.

He walked without stopping and arrived at the gate of the yamen without hesitation.

After confirming that there were no omissions, Yang He entered the main gate. The black cat followed him diligently, and the man and the cat shuttled between the buildings.

Just for a moment.

Yang He was already sitting in the study, with tiger stripes appearing under his eyes.

He sneered as he held the tiger skin in his hand. Bloody words appeared on the fur, but the strokes of the words were obviously becoming sloppy and blurred.

'I am Sun Qi, who are you?'

Yang He did not ask any more questions, but wrote down the missing contents of the inner alchemy.

Captain Sun was probably the one who had taken care of the second ghost genius and was on the verge of death. His remaining consciousness would occasionally become clear. The other party might not be able to recover from his injuries after receiving the inner elixir, but...

But it is enough to distract the evil ghost monks!
"Do you want to try to use your ghost hand to remove the ghost from Old Man Yang's body?"

"No."

Yang He shook his head. According to the situation in Peibai City, the constables had the protection of Captain Sun, and the evil ghost monks did not dare to confront them for the time being.

He walked slowly out of the yamen and headed straight for the market entrance where the fish carcass was.
