Starting with Taoist priests from Maoshan to cultivate immortality

Lin Xiao stared wide-eyed and said:

"You've actually turned into my likeness. You're quite handsome indeed. To possess the face of a genius like me is the greatest honor of your life."

Yingning, standing to the side, frowned and said:

"So ugly."

Laoshan Mountain on his shoulder nodded in agreement:

"really."

Lin Xiao was instantly petrified.

Jiang Yu stared at Lin Xiao and said:

"Take off your clothes."

Lin Xiao said shyly:

"Then you need to be gentle."

"Gentle, my foot!"

Jiang Yu felt nauseous and punched him hard in the right eye before tearing off his clothes.

"Ah, no!"

Lin Xiao struggled loudly.

Outside the woods, everyone heard strange noises and looked puzzled.

"What are they doing?"

"This voice... something seems off."

Guan Xi and Zhao Teng used their divine senses to investigate, but found that their divine senses could not penetrate that forest.

Their pupils were slightly dilated, indicating that they possessed magical artifacts that could shield them from divine sense.

Soon, under Jiang Yu's stern demeanor, the two changed their clothes.

Jiang Yu said to Ying Ning:

"Use a transformation spell to turn him into my likeness."

Jiang Yu knew that in addition to being able to transform into a human, Ying Ning also possessed the skill of body mimicry.

Yingning smiled and nodded, saying:

"It is possible, but only half an hour."

Jiang Yu nodded:

"That's enough."

Lin Xiao, lying on the ground, shook his head frantically:

"No, I don't want to become someone else."

Jiang Yu said:

"In that case, go and have a match with those two outside."

Upon hearing Jiang Yu's words, Lin Xiao instantly understood what he meant.

It turns out that Jiang Yu was going to impersonate him and compete on his behalf.

That's no problem.

Lin Xiao sprang to his feet in a somersault, but still retorted sharply:

"Then I'll make a sacrifice."

boom!

His left eye was punched hard again, turning it into a big panda eye.

The bald-headed beggar standing nearby clapped his hands and laughed loudly:

"Haha, that's interesting."

"You always have some fresh ideas."

"But don't forget, those two outside are Foundation Establishment stage cultivators. If they scan you with their divine sense, your disguise won't be able to escape."

Jiang Yu frowned and thought:

"Indeed, the Thousand Illusions Mask is only a high-grade magic weapon, and it has its limitations against Foundation Establishment stage cultivators."

The bald-headed beggar said:

"However, your idea is right up my alley, so I'll help you level up."

With a wave of his hand, the bald beggar caused the Thousand Illusions Mask to fall off Jiang Yu's face automatically.

Several pieces of material flew out of the bald beggar's arms.

Jiang Yu took a closer look and realized that these were all precious materials for the Foundation Establishment stage, and were very expensive.

These materials spontaneously broke apart and reformed in the hands of the bald-headed beggar, leaving everyone wide-eyed.

I never expected him to be a master weapon refiner.

Such a skill of telekinesis is something that very few people in Guobei County can achieve.

Soon, the precious materials adhered to the Thousand Illusion Mask, which then shimmered with iridescent light, resembling glass and radiating a seven-colored glow.

Jiang Yu's pupils widened slightly. Could this be a magical artifact?

He gained an even more terrifying understanding of the bald beggar's strength.

In just a few minutes, a high-grade magic weapon can be upgraded to a spiritual weapon.

Such terrifying weapon-forging skills make him absolutely number one in Guobei County.

With a wave of his hand, the bald beggar put the mask back on Jiang Yu's face.

He laughed:

"This is the [Thousand Illusions Glass Mask]. Try it on yourself."

Jiang Yu put it on his face and instantly felt a cool sensation.

Because the Thousand Illusions Mask was a magical artifact made by the Painted Skin Demon, it always had a faint ghostly aura. When Jiang Yu put it on his face, it produced a burning sensation.

Now it's completely gone, and it can change its appearance at will according to its own wishes.

Moreover, it is more refined and can also conceal one's aura.

They can even imitate parts of the opponent's posture and moves.

This is simply a powerful tool for murder, robbery, framing, and sabotage.

Wait, I'm a righteous cultivator, how could I have such strange thoughts?

Jiang Yu realized what was happening and said.

Then the bald-headed beggar looked at Ying Ning beside him:

"And you, little girl, your body mimicry technique is still not up to par."

"There's a slight sense of disharmony in the facial features you conjured up."

"A Qi Refining stage cultivator can't tell, but a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator can easily detect it with a scan of their divine sense."

The bald beggar brought his two fingers together, and a beam of golden light shone into Ying Ning's forehead. Ying Ning closed her eyes.

A profound message appeared in her mind, and her understanding of body simulation techniques reached a new level.

A few minutes later, she opened her eyes and thanked them with a smile:

"Thank you, senior."

"Change!"

She cast the transformation spell on Lin Xiao again.

Sure enough, Lin Xiao's appearance as Jiang Yu became even more refined, almost exactly like him.

Even Jiang Yu himself couldn't find the slightest flaw.

With the help of the bald beggar, their plan could be executed more smoothly.

Lin Xiao's eyes lit up; he hadn't expected this seemingly unremarkable beggar to be such a master.

He looked at the treasures and magic bestowed upon Jiang Yu and Ying Ning by the bald-headed beggar and felt a pang of envy.

He suddenly knelt at the feet of the bald beggar, rubbing his face against him vigorously:

"Master, please grant me this opportunity as well. From now on, you will be my grandfather."

"I will take care of you in your old age and see you off when you die."

Laoshan, perched on his shoulder, glanced at it and said with disdain:

"Humans are shameless; they can't even resist such a small temptation and do such despicable things."

"I won't."

Then, in the next moment, he jumped off Jiang Yu's shoulder and grabbed the bald beggar's other leg:

"Master, please grant me this opportunity. From now on, you will be my ancestor, and our entire clan will worship you."

Faced with a sudden competitor, Laoshan and Lin Xiao, one human and one demon, stared at each other, sparks flying between their eyes.

Their fawning over the bald beggar was even more intense.

Jiang Yu gloated, thinking that if they angered the bald beggar, neither of them would have a good ending.

The bald-headed beggar laughed loudly:

"Very good, I see your piety."

"I, the Beggar Lord, will grant each of you an opportunity."

Jiang Yu's eyes widened. He hadn't expected that the man would actually fall for it. Should he beg again?

Forget it, considering that the bald beggar has already upgraded his magic weapon to a spiritual weapon, it would be too embarrassing to ask for more.

In the end, the bald beggar simply upgraded the jade pendant in Lin Xiao's arms into a permanent prop that could enhance his aura.

Lin Xiao was overjoyed; he could now act even more recklessly.

When the time comes, just by showing this imposing aura, they won't dare to oppose me.

The bald beggar gifted Laoshan a long flute and a musical score, which, when played, could enhance their race's control magic.

Laoshan was overjoyed:

"Thank you very much, sir."

Without saying a word, the bald-headed beggar vanished from the spot in an instant.

His voice came:

"I'm leaving now, beggar. I'm leaving the rest to you. I hope to see you again in the future."

Jiang Yu's lips twitched; they left way too quickly.

He's ready to ask again.

However, the bald beggar's eccentric behavior is quite in line with his personality.

Suddenly, a ray of inspiration descended from the sky and entered Jiang Yu's eyes.
