[Coordinates: Demon Realm]

Introduction: In the alleys of Wendeng Town in the Demon Realm, a woman holding an oil-paper umbrella appears every rainy day. The families whose doors she knocks on will suddenly die suddenly within a few days. The town guardian, Pang Tong, sets up an altar and sincerely prays to the gods to help eliminate the evil!

[Difficulty: First Realm·★★★]

[Offering: One 80-year-old Cistanche deserticola plant.]

Rating: ★★★★★; The oil-paper umbrella, after a miraculous experience, gained spirituality. After the death of a young girl, it was absorbed and fused with the demonic umbrella, becoming a spirit. The demonic umbrella and the umbrella girl are indestructible, but can be sealed. You used the 'Golden Pearl' to drop treasure and seal the demonic umbrella, completely resolving the disaster brought about by the 'Umbrella Girl' for Wendeng Town. Your contribution is immense.

Reward: 16384 Merits

……

The ninth gate tower.

The fairy light dissipated.

Chu Yuan appears.

He failed to complete the task, was in disgrace, and failed to obtain the sacrifice.

When he turned his head, he suddenly saw that the fairy light that had just been taken over also dissipated, revealing a person.

"what?"

Chu Yuan was surprised.

He saw that the man was holding an oil-paper umbrella in his left hand and an old medicinal plant in his right hand: "Did he actually complete the task?"

Not only complete the task.

Not only get sacrifices.

There is even extra income -

"The umbrella."

Chu Yuan only had time to take a few more glances before the man stuffed the medicine and the old medicine into the leopard skin bag on his waist.

……

"A small profit."

Qi Sheng returned with a look of joy on his face.

This trip has yielded quite a lot——

First, the offerings.

"Eighty-year-old Cistanche deserticola."

Medicine takes ten years to produce and a hundred years to become a treasure.

If it is more than fifty years old, it is called "old medicine".

This old medicine replenishes yang and benefits blood, and is particularly beneficial for the practice of the first, ninth and tenth solar terms.

"It will be more effective if used to make pills."

Unfortunately, the 'Huangya Dan' that Qi Sheng currently possesses, and the 'Liuzhu Baixue Dan' that he will master later, do not require this medicinal ingredient.

Or swallow it directly and refine it.

Or you can find a useful recipe and learn it.

Otherwise, take action.

"I'm not short of money, so there's no need to sell off the old medicine I can use."

"Even if I can't find the recipe, eating it directly will still be beneficial."

Qi Sheng put away the Cistanche deserticola.

Touch the demon umbrella again——

"Ice-cold."

"It turns out that the umbrella girl is the demon umbrella spirit."

Qi Sheng could only sigh at how wonderful the world was. He had just used all his strength against the umbrella girl, but he couldn't hit her or kill her.

Originally thought that this trip would be in vain, who would have thought that there would be a sudden turn of events, and in the end, 'Jinzhu', who tried his best to save the situation, actually took down the demon umbrella with one strike.

This is truly an unexpected surprise.

In fact, in terms of power, this 'demon umbrella' is average.

What abilities do you have?
One is to collect human souls and transform them into ghosts.

The second one is to open the magic umbrella, which can reveal a rain alley, but the rain and ghosts in this rain alley are not that threatening and pose no threat to Qi Sheng.

But it has great potential.

"With a spirit, you can grow."

"It also has the attribute of being indestructible, which makes it a bit difficult to deal with."

Anyway, this is a treasure.

……

80-year-old Cistanche deserticola.

A demonic umbrella that gave birth to a spirit.

Qi Sheng was delighted as he had gained a lot from his trip to the mortal world.

not only that.

He even earned over 10,000 gong this time: "That's equivalent to a month of 'Burning Ghost' missions!"

Qi Sheng is lacking merit.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have lowered himself to come and be a god.

The 'Umbrella Girl Mission' was a good start.

"Since we're here, it's not good to just complete a task and leave."

Qi Sheng continued searching without saying a word.

He noticed someone was paying attention to him, turned his head and recognized the person: "It turned out to be him."

The person is Chu Yuan.

Qi Sheng had seen this first person during his first divine descent. At that time, he could only look up to him, but now they are no longer on the same track.

Qi Sheng nodded slightly to Chu Yuan, said nothing, and continued to look for a suitable mission to summon the spirits.

……

The ninth gate tower.

Not only Chu Yuan paid attention to Qi Sheng, but the defending general Huang Jun had also been paying attention to him since early on.

The more attention I paid, the more shocked I became.

"So crazy?"

"Too fierce!"

"This is the first time I've seen such a crazy immortal master."

Which other immortal master is not lying high in the immortal mountains or sitting in the caves?
Who would take such a risk?

Too rare.

Huang Junchang has seen it all.

……

Qi Sheng was very happy to see the gods descend.

This day.

He descended to the Ninth Heaven Gate seven times, and all the tasks he chose were of difficulty level three or below.

Complete three.

Failed four.

If you don't die once, you can earn 25088 merits in one day.

“Making a killing!”

Qi Sheng was delighted. He said hello to Huang Jun and said goodbye to Feng Qing and Yu Yan.

Immediately, he rode the cloud back to Bijia Peak—

Work hard!

……

The first thing to work on was the 'Ghost Revealing Technique' that Qi Sheng had just obtained from Qiu Yan.

"The 'Burning Ghost' has troubled me for a long time. It's time to solve it once and for all." Qi Sheng has the 'Yang Sheng Fist' which can also fight and kill ghosts.

But for Qi Sheng, the difficulty of this task lies not in killing the ghost, but in finding the burning ghost.

"Once they go into the Flaming Mountain, I won't be able to find them unless they come out on their own initiative."

Even though Qi Sheng has the "Fire Sitting Technique" that makes him immune to fire and can walk freely in the Flaming Mountain, the mountain is too big and it is difficult to find ghosts.

Even if Qi Sheng still had "wise eyes" that could see the air and observe a hundred miles away, how could he see in the smoke and fire of the Flaming Mountain?

If you force yourself to look, you might end up going blind before you find the ghost.

The 'technique of revealing ghosts' can be used to both find and kill ghosts, making it more suitable for dealing with the situation at Flaming Mountain.

This technique needs to be practiced.

【Ghost Revealing Technique: Uninitiated (2899)】（+）

[Ghost Revealing Technique: Beginner (0/150)] (+)

……

[Ghost Revealing Technique: Perfect (2400/2400)]

……

Qi Sheng continued with full force.

With 4650 points of skill, the 'Ghost Revealing Technique' was completed.

"This technique is the ultimate skill—"

"'Ghost Chaser Swift Messenger'!"

Qi Sheng held a bright mirror in his hand, made hand gestures, chanted spells, drew talismans and made seals, and continued to perform rituals and practices.

After the Mingjing ritual was completed, he opened the oil-paper umbrella again, and when he turned it, the ghosts appeared.

"catch!"

"Edict!"

Qi Shengyun method.

The eight innocent families in the umbrella were no longer from Wendeng Town. Those eight families had long been converted by Qi Sheng.

Now in the umbrella are eight evil ghosts that Qi Sheng has just caught in the human world. He caught them and threw them into the mirror.

Magic power nurtures and magic spells are created.

He stopped practicing after an hour.

Repeat this for three days.

Three days later, Qi Sheng held a bright mirror in his right hand and wrote a revealing talisman on it with his left eye. He then formed a Vajra Lion Seal with his left hand and chanted the mantra: "Gods of heaven and earth, all spirits gather together, and the decrees of heaven and earth are in harmony. I command the swift ghost-chasing messengers in all directions to quickly capture the evil ghost and bring it to light."

The curse is cast and the messenger appears.

Three days ago, the eight little ghosts were whimpering and crying. After a walk in the mirror, three days later, they changed into black uniforms, landed in front of Qi Sheng, knelt down and respectfully called him "Master".

"It's done!"

Qi Sheng was delighted.

The ultimate skill of 'The Art of Revealing Ghosts' was formed through sacrifice and refinement into 'The Swift Messenger Chasing Ghosts in All Directions'. He was the best at chasing and catching ghosts, and could help Qi Sheng quickly capture the ghosts in the Flame Mountain.

"However, the little ghost is still a little bit lacking in the beginning."

"It also needs to be fed with mana and Yin objects."

But Qi Sheng's mana is not much——

【Dead Man’s Sutra——】

【Mana: 39 years (333)】

[First level (meditation): Mastery (56/4000)]

[Second Level (Tranquility): Mastery (55/8000)]

[Third Level (Nourishment): Proficiency (23/6000)]

[Fourth Level (Recharge): Proficiency (23/8000)]

……

"Promoting the Dead Man's Book truly requires a lot of effort."

Qi Sheng glanced at the panel and shook his head.

In the past month or so, he only managed to squeeze out some effort and master the fourth level of "The Book of the Dead".

The Book of the Dead is like this:

Each level constitutes a realm.

Four boundaries form one level.

Only after mastering one realm can one enter the next realm of practice.

Only by mastering the essence of the four realms of one level can one enter the next level of practice.

"I want to enter the second level and practice the fifth level of the Dead Man's Sutra. I must master the first four levels first."

It’s not that Qi Sheng doesn’t want to, it’s just that the consumption is too great.

In the past, he was unwilling to work hard on the immortal skills, and he disliked that the "Book of the Dead" could not directly improve his combat power.

But now is different from the past——

"Sitting on Fire", "Restraining the Breath", "Driving Away Objects", "Strange Rocks", "Controlling Birds", "Wisdom Eyes", "Climbing Clouds", and "The Art of Revealing Ghosts".

"As I master more and more spells, my need for mana also increases."

In the past, I could use the magic power of "Spark Technique" and "Golden Bead Technique" to deal with it, but this is not a long-term solution.

If one wants to freely perform these perfect spells, one must ultimately return to the Book of the Dead.

With each level of the "Book of the Dead", the upper limit of mana can only increase by 10 years.

Four floors.

The upper limit is forty years.

"Too little, too little."

Qi Sheng didn't hesitate much and put all his remaining efforts into it.

The first level of "The Book of the Dead" is called "Laying the Foundation".

It is divided into four realms: meditation, tranquility, nourishing essence, and gathering strength. This is the foundation of cultivating immortals and seeking the Tao.

The second level is called "introspection", which is divided into four stages: concentration of mind, induction, insight and inner observation.

Qi Sheng works hard——

[Third level (cultivation): proficiency (23/6000)] (+)

[Third level (Nourishment): Mastery (0/12000)] (+)

……

[Fourth level (Recharge): Proficiency (23/8000)] (+)

[Fourth level (charge): Mastery (0/16000)] (+)

……

one two three four.

Mastery of the four realms.

Then, I was finally qualified to start practicing the second level of Vipassana.

[Fifth level (centering): entry (0/5000)] (+)
