Young master, why not become a corpse immortal?

Chapter 465 The next morning, Chang Ming
Lin Jiang and Kong Dong faced each other.

The void was clearly momentarily stunned, then a deep voice rang out again:
"Have you finally gone mad? If you really can't take it anymore, you can give me Tianmian's Daoist essence and let me send you back to your hometown."

Upon hearing this, Lin Jiang merely chuckled, then stretched his hand outwards, and a wisp of thought appeared in his palm.

This thought shifted for a moment in his palm.

Suddenly, a figure appeared in his palm.

The Taoist's eyes were initially filled with confusion, but then quickly became focused.

He looked up at the empty space in front of him, and although he didn't say a word, the atmosphere around him became noticeably heavier.

this moment,
The void before them suddenly trembled violently.

Where did you get this?

Lin Jiang just smiled and didn't say anything. He simply raised his hand and waved it towards the empty space in the distance.

The thought in his hand instantly transformed into an arc of light.

It crossed the stars, traversed the void of darkness, and merged directly into this void.

The speed was so fast that even the hollow that had just awakened its will didn't have time to react before its thoughts were completely absorbed into it.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Jiang clearly saw the void in front of him tremble slightly.

Even the slightest movement of this enormous body would be magnified to its maximum at this moment, to the point that Lin Jiang could clearly see every detail of the void.

In his vision, he could see that this emptiness was beginning to be tinged with color.

It was first dyed red from the inside out, and then turned into a deep purple.

Then, the color of the entire hole turned into a rainbow.

The seven-colored light gradually permeated the entire world, so dazzling that people could hardly open their eyes.

At this moment, a low, furious roar finally erupted from the belatedly empty void:

"How dare you!"

"How am I?"

Lin Jiang finally stopped suppressing his expression and burst into laughter, throwing his head back and laughing heartily.

"Simply returning the true owner of this body to its physical form has angered you so much! How laughable!"

At this moment, Lin Jiang laughed heartily, his mind at ease and his thoughts clear.

Before this, Lin Jiang had no way to deal with this emptiness.

And now,
Death is equally inevitable for everyone.

"I promised you so much, only thinking of letting you return to your hometown, but you not only didn't appreciate it, you even used such means to harm me!"

The voice in the hollow finally turned into a gnashing of teeth and resentment:

"Since you are so determined to die, then I will grant your wish!"

Accompanied by the deep, muffled roar of the void, which had transformed into a stream of seven-colored light, the void suddenly approached Lin Jiang.

An overwhelming sense of oppression washed over him, and as the wave of energy drew ever closer, Lin Jiang showed no fear whatsoever.

Having come this far, it's highly unlikely that I'll be able to return.

but,

Since Lin Jiang has come here, he must have been prepared to die, so why would he be afraid of this?

He opened his arms and let the colorful rainbow light surge across his body and engulf him.

Perhaps because the surging Qi was so fierce, Lin Jiang did not feel any pain for a moment.

He glanced at his own body.

His skin and flesh began to dissipate under a surge of Qi, leaving almost nothing behind.

If this continues, it won't be long before his physical body completely dissipates into it.

I'm afraid even their souls won't be left.

Lin Jiang felt no fear; he was prepared to accept his fate with equanimity.

Can……

For some reason, Lin Jiang suddenly felt a surge of hunger.

His mind went blank for a moment, his thoughts racing, before he suddenly realized:
The most basic method on his path of cultivation was eating and drinking. Now, his physical body was almost collapsing, and every part of his body was telling him that if he did not have the Dao to replenish himself, he would surely die.

This feeling, when expressed in the body, naturally manifests as hunger.

But there seemed to be nothing to eat around here, only this expanse of Qi seemed to never stop, constantly washing over Lin Jiang's body.

Lin Jiang thought about it carefully and realized that if he were to just obediently let the other party wash him clean, he might as well have another bite.

So Lin Jiang opened his mouth directly.

The next moment, the surging Qi flowed directly into Lin Jiang's mouth.

Although it was only a tiny fraction, Lin Jiang actually managed to keep his life afloat.

In the dim light, Lin Jiang seemed to hear a sharp roar coming from beside his ear, as if the hollow thing was saying something to him.

But Lin Jiang's eardrums must have completely rotted away, and his three souls and seven spirits had become extremely unstable under the erosion, so he couldn't hear the sound very clearly.

I could only vaguely sense that the emptiness was questioning me, asking why I hadn't died yet.

Lin Jiang paid no attention to the sound.

He focused intently on absorbing the Qi flow before him.

After his physical body was washed away and destroyed, it was reassembled, condensed together and then separated again. Lin Jiang's consciousness gradually drifted to a very distant place.

Lin Jiang didn't know how much time had passed; he only felt as if he were soaking in a pool of warm water, and his thoughts seemed to become muddled.

But at that very moment, the image of a little guy suddenly appeared in the deepest part of Lin Jiang's consciousness.

The little ginseng seemed to be blinking at him, calling out loudly:
"Lin Jiang! You liar!"

Lin Jiang suddenly opened his eyes.

His thoughts solidified back into his body; his three souls and seven spirits no longer dissipated outwards, and even his physical body began to solidify inwards.

The ginseng was not here, but Lin Jiang's spirit did indeed experience a significant fluctuation under the influence of this Qi.

He needs to...recall.

I thought of those people I knew and had met before.

His grandfather came to mind. The old man had been mentally unstable at first, but Lin Jiang had now restored him to a fairly good mental state. He wondered how he and his grandmother were doing in Cangsong.

That place with its flowing river must be a good place, where you can see flowers and water, and it should be enough for the old couple to live out their retirement.

He thought of his "parents" who were trapped in the town and had no way to get out. Although their memories were incomplete, their feelings were truly genuine.

It's like a silhouette of those two people's lives, left behind in that place.

He thought of Gongxuan, the Taoist priest who led him into the Dao, his life of poverty, and his unwavering obsession with the star-pointing technique.

However, his unwavering determination vanished like smoke in the wind.

His obsession ultimately failed to hold him back.

He thought of Jiang Jinyue, the constable, and the expectations her adoptive mother had placed on her. Judging from her appearance, she would eventually reconcile with Li Guang.

More people came to mind: Zhao Liulang, who managed the entire Daxing but lost his master; Liang Huashan, who was obsessed with painting but got the target wrong; and Boss Guo, who said that everything was business and everything was just buying and selling, but who would give pointers to Gongxuan and squander his fortune to deal with the immortal.

As his thoughts wandered further and further, Lin Jiang's inner palace finally collapsed completely at this moment.

It was surrounded by cracks, and then suddenly burst open while trembling slightly.

It exploded into a surging wave that rippled through his body.

Beneath these crumbling ruins, a new plant begins to grow and spread.

As the first life appeared in the ruins, large swathes of vegetation quickly covered the land.

Clouds appeared in the sky, and a fireball called the sun condensed in the distant heavens.

The sun sank below the mountain peak that had just risen from the ground, while the moon rose behind another mountain peak, and the two began to cycle endlessly, causing thick clouds to pile up in the sky.

The rainwater flowed down from the sky, quickly creating vast expanses of water on the earth.

Lin Jiang's mind also conjured up the image of Yongli and several other cultivators expounding the Dao in the palace high in the clouds. They were explaining, bit by bit, how to construct an inner vision world.

Lin Jiang had only heard many things before, but he did not understand them. Only now did he realize that this knowledge had become his physical instinct, meticulously etched into every part of his flesh and blood.

In the blink of an eye, the Inner Vision Palace transformed into the Inner Vision World.

All of this naturally requires the support of a vast source of Qi.

Lin Jiang's body was completely surrounded by this Qi.

These colorful torrents converged into his body, greedily devoured by the newborn world.

The origin of all things is "food," and even a small world is no exception.

Lin Jiang finally opened his eyes again.

His physical body had been completely reconstructed, and a set of clothes was draped over his body once again.

At this moment, two figures appeared in front of Lin Jiang.

It was very blurry, but you could still vaguely make out that it was Yongli.

The other one was shrouded in black and almost disappeared.

The shadowy figure turned its head and stared at Lin Jiang:

"Coincidence?"

"what?"

"Taking advantage of the small taste of success I gave you in the scam I set up back then, you actually used my skills to create a small world."

When "Yongli" told Lin Jiang that not entirely true story, he did show some goodwill. At least in the Cloud Palace, the sermon was not wrong and contained all the knowledge needed to create a small world.

The other party was clearly completely surprised that Lin Jiang could master this technique and use this attack to internalize his small world.

Although the Qi energy dissipates in most attacks, a large portion of it is still used by Lin Jiang.

All these years of planning were used as a wedding dress and given to Lin Jiang.

Lin Jiang shook his head.

coincidence?

maybe.

But Lin Jiang prefers to call it cause and effect under the continuation of the cause and effect.

Everything in this coffin originated from Eternal Separation, even the golden body created by the alien celestial beings contained many of the mysteries of Eternal Separation.

From the moment Lin Jiang crawled out of the coffin, and from the moment he entered into introspection under Gong Xuan's guidance, his cultivation method had already found its direction.

"You have schemed against my physical body for so many years, but you are ultimately an outsider."

The translucent Yongli spoke slowly, his voice calm and even, as if chatting with an old friend:

"I feel that my skills would rather follow a rightful successor than a foreign thief."

"He has neither heard your sermons nor received your teachings, yet he is the rightful successor to the throne of peace!"

The voice from the shadowy figure was clearly filled with anger:

"Don't think that things will end here. Just as I said before, even if I die, my caravan will find you!"

Yongli stared at the dark figure for a long time before finally shaking his head.

"What do you mean?"

"It's just a pity that my friends and I stumbled before someone as devoid of morality as you."

Yongli said no more, but slowly walked towards the shadowy figure.

"What do you want to do?" the dark figure shouted urgently, but he seemed to be fixed in place, unable to move at all.

Yongli placed his hand on the other person, and the dark shadow immediately began to vanish rapidly.

The next moment, his figure vanished completely, leaving not a trace.

However, Yongli did not leave. He looked around, a smile on his face, and reached out and pinched something in front of him.

He caught a wisp of black energy in his palm.

"I will never make that mistake again."

After crushing the wisp of black energy into dust, Yongli looked at Lin Jiang.

He didn't say anything, but simply cupped his hands in a gesture of respect towards Lin Jiang.

Its body could no longer hold on, turning into specks of starlight and dissipating in the surroundings.

Lin Jiang looked at Yongli and the empty Boundary Sea before him, and let out a long sigh.

It's finally over.

right now,

I need to think about how to get home.

……

"Greetings, everyone."

The sky over the city-state at the ends of the earth suddenly became transparent, and the entire pitch-black sky turned into blue sky and white clouds.

There were no storms on the distant sea surface; all that could be seen was the sun rising from below the horizon.

Standing atop one of the towering pavilions, King Munjo looked up at the sky and couldn't help but sigh inwardly:

"These celestial beings are quite refined, having designed this part of the sky in such a way."

This morning, everything seemed normal, and the sky rose as usual.

The little ginseng on the pillow twitched slightly twice, then suddenly bounced up on the spot.

"I'm awake!"

Little Ginseng shouted loudly, then immediately looked around:

"Lin Jiang! Lin Jiang, where are you! You didn't abandon me?"

She shouted as she got out of bed and ran towards the rooms next to hers.

First, they pushed open the left door, but Lin Jiang wasn't inside. Then they pushed open the right door, but Lin Jiang wasn't inside either.

Little Ginseng's lips pursed immediately, and his eyes quickly filled with tears.

"That bad person! That bad person! They left me behind again..."

"Leave behind what?"

Xiao Shanshen suddenly turned around and found Lin Jiang right behind him, holding two rather strange-looking long strips of pasta.

"Lin Jiang! Where have you been!"

"Me? I went to make breakfast." Lin Jiang scratched his head: "I called you, but you were sleeping soundly, so I just left by myself."

"Really?"

Xiao Shanshen sniffed, feeling that Lin Jiang had a liar smell about him.

Why would I lie to you?

"……That's good!"

The little ginseng jumped directly onto Lin Jiang.

So be it, I might as well lie, as long as they're still by my side.

Lin Jiang also gently patted Xiaoshan Shenshen's head.

He went to Xiaoshanshen's room, his gaze passing through the window and looking straight into the distance.

The sun was shining brightly, and the weather was fine.

Today should be another spring, with beautiful scenery.
