From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

This space is very peculiar, similar to the magic of Europe that has been lost with the disappearance of the sacred tree: Heaven. However, this Eastern "Heaven" is even more bizarre, as its ruler is a kind of ghost that can even replicate reality, distort the mind, and even create strange ghostly creatures.

That's incredible!

Traveling in such "paradise" is extremely dangerous, and one must cooperate with extraordinary people from the East to increase the chances of leaving.

"Lu Jin, I really can't figure you out." After watching the whole thing, Li Muxuan suddenly realized that he was actually a little unfamiliar with Lu Jin.

Act decisively!

A tough stance!

It's like—

Like a flowing river.

On the contrary, staying in the territory of the Mountain Sect, apart from being a bit more composed, what about him could he compare to Lu Jin?

"Read ten thousand books and travel ten thousand miles...?"

Li Muxuan also knew the answer.

It's a good place for spiritual practice.

But as one walks through life, the growth one can gain is far greater.

“Junior Brother Li, there’s still a lot you don’t understand.” Lu Jin grinned, his maturity masking his liveliness. “This is also part of cultivation.”

"Tch, what kind of cultivation is this? It's just experience." Li Muxuan scoffed, indicating that he could also be so decisive if he went out more in the future.

Upon hearing this, Lu Jin smiled but remained silent.

What is spiritual practice?

It's not just about refining Qi.

Life, work, and even entertainment are all part of spiritual practice.

【Junior Brother Li, staying on the mountain all the time may lead to rapid progress in cultivation, but that cannot be considered complete cultivation. Don't you see that Taoism emphasizes engagement with the world, while Buddhism emphasizes detachment from it?】

but.

Lu Jin knew Li Muxuan's temperament. Although he had become much more composed, he was still the same in nature. Therefore, she did not lecture him. He would definitely not listen, and with his stubborn temper, he might even argue back!

Helpless, they could only communicate with their eyes.

What happened to your eyes?

But one thing is obvious right now.

That is, Li Muxuan couldn't understand it.

"It's nothing, just a little itchy." Lu Jin sighed inwardly, made up an excuse, and then asked Stephen Whitey, "What is the Divine Tree?"

"A crystallization of ancient witchcraft, anyone born under the protection of the divine tree, even if they are an ordinary person, will be transformed into an extraordinary being."

Stephen White dared not hide the truth: "However, the sacred tree and its guardians have been driven out of Europe, supposedly to a little-known island at sea."

Is it related to the sacred tree or the tree of good and evil in Western religious legends?

Although the foreigner didn't know much, it still reminded Lu Jin of the "vampire" incident in Renjia Town. Those "Western zombies" seemed to be created by two priests using the remains of a sacred tree for human transmutation to save their girlfriends...

Animal-like vegetative state!

"The apple tree from the Garden of Eden? Myths and legends originate from reality; they are adaptations of the tree's past deeds." Stephen White paused, realizing that Lu Jin might have encountered some Western magicians and alchemists who came to the Eastern land to study the remains of the sacred tree, and could only tell him the truth.

"I see."

Lu Jin nodded, helped Stephen Whitey up, and asked, "So, what are your thoughts on leaving this space?"

"No."

Stephen White shook his head, but still said, "However, I feel that this place is somewhat similar to the area where Flamel Academy is located... Flamel Academy is a magic academy in England, which ordinary people usually cannot see or find."

really!

The West also has its own concept of "qi" (energy), and can even use it to establish schools and similar institutions!

Lu Jin sighed inwardly, then returned to the present and asked, "What martial arts do you two Westerners know?"

"Cultivation techniques? No, no! What we know is magic, and we don't like the term 'extraordinary person.' Please call us magicians!"

Then Smith corrected him, "I know three kinds of magic: fire, water, and wind. Fire magic is used for attacking, water magic for healing, and wind magic for—"

"Run away?" Li Muxuan interjected with a chuckle.

"Increase the speed!" Smith said in a low voice, somewhat resentful, but knowing the situation, he dared not argue.

"I only know one kind of magic: Chaotic Life."

Stephen White also revealed the core of his magic.

# Chapter 397 The Fusion of Ghostly Life - Unresolvable!

The so-called chaotic life form uses itself as a "vessel" to hold multiple people. It is a form of black magic, one of the taboos of human alchemy, which allows one to merge the lives and abilities of others into oneself, thereby gaining multiple abilities and multiple lives.

If one suffers a fatal wound, one can transfer all the damage to another person fused into one's body and then separate them, thus ensuring one's own safety.

[This is somewhat similar to Brother Jiang's method of avoiding death and prolonging life, but instead of consuming one's own vital energy to prolong life, it involves using someone else's life to die in their place!]

Lu Jin felt a sense of unease towards Stephen Whitey.

"A chaotic life form? Merging with others?" Upon hearing this ability, Zheng Zha shuddered, thinking of the movie "The Thing".

Compared to the monstrous appearance in this horror movie, isn't the ability of Chaotic Life just like a controllable "monster"?

How many different martial arts techniques and abilities exist in this horror movie, "A Chinese Ghost Story: Republican Era Version and Under One Person Version"?

"This ability must be a forbidden technique!"

Li Muxuan knew perfectly well that this ability could never be openly displayed, otherwise it would be like the Quanxing demons on their side, hated by everyone.

"That's why I came to China."

Stephen White exclaimed with fervor, "Those guys from the Emerald Society don't understand that the true essence of alchemy lies in exploring the forbidden!"

What we call taboos are simply areas that humanity has not yet explored and knows very little about!

But someone always has to explore, right?

This is also the fundamental reason why Stephen White wanted to obtain the Qin King's Bone-Illuminating Mirror. To further explore the mysteries of the human body, it is necessary to further understand the structure of the human body.

If the Qin King's Bone-Illuminating Mirror could truly clearly reveal the five internal organs, bones, and meridians of the human body, it would definitely be of great help to his human body refinement!

Lu Jin did not comment on Stephen Whitey's dream, but simply asked, "Can your chaotic life form merge with ghosts and monsters?"

"...Never tried it."

Returning to the present, Stephen White realized Lu Jin's idea, "You want me to fuse with a monster and then disguise myself as one of them?"

"similar."

To "make havoc in the Heavenly Palace," one must first ensure that everyone else, except for him, does not fall into a state of "peace" when approaching the center of this ghostly realm.

Otherwise, the only people who could join him in "making trouble in Heaven" would be Hong Guniang, Zhao Xinchuan, Boss Cha, Zhan Lan, and Chu Xuan.

Everyone else became the puppets of the Black Mountain Demon.

how to spell?

In truth, their goal was simply to kill the Black Mountain Demon once and rescue Jiang Liu, Zhang Zhiwei, and the others who were trapped in the "underworld".

Lu Jin's original plan was simple: to cause trouble in the outer and middle city areas to force the Black Mountain Demon to send out troops to deal with it.

This ghost realm appears prosperous and thriving, but the ghosts and monsters in the outer, middle, and inner cities were all created by the Black Mountain Demon using the pure consciousness from the Great Black Mountain Heavenly Palace. Because the Great Black Mountain dissipated nearly a third of its accumulated power, these ghosts and monsters, although possessing intelligence similar to humans, are not particularly strong and do not attack proactively.

therefore.

If something happens in the city, disrupting its order and affecting the flow of energy in the Ghost Realm, the Black Mountain Demon in the inner city, that is, the Heavenly Palace, will inevitably send people out to deal with the troublemakers.

Who should we send?

Without a doubt, it was Si Chong and his group who were granted the title of "Thunder General" by the Black Mountain Demon because their primordial spirits were too "pure".

Since the Black Mountain Demon cannot leave the lotus platform and take action himself, they are the only ones who can handle it.

in this way!

The Heavenly Court must be empty—

Just now, the Red Maiden had already communicated with Lu Jin through the light spot, informing him that each of the "celestial ministers" and "divine generals" in the Heavenly Palace possessed different abilities, but none of them seemed to be good at fighting.

Therefore, as long as those Lei Jiang who have temporarily become "puppets" are brought out, opportunities can be created for Hong Guniang, Zhao Xinchuan, Boss Cha, Chu Xuan, and Zhan Lan.

However, upon learning that Stephen White possessed the ability of chaotic life, she had another thought—if Stephen White could maintain his clear consciousness when approaching the Heavenly Palace by fusing with ghosts, then Sister Hong and the others wouldn't have to take any risks.

Let Stephen Whitey carry out the assassination!

"I?"

Upon hearing Lu Jin's idea, Stephen White was filled with questions.

Are they trying to kill him?

“You must go, or you can forget about getting the antidote for ‘Genesis’.”

Lu Jin shook the bottle containing the yellow liquid in his hand and threatened in a sinister tone, then added, "Moreover, only you here can fuse with ghosts and monsters, giving yourself the aura of ghosts and monsters, thus ensuring that your consciousness will not be blocked when you approach the Heavenly Palace."

"To leave this hellish place, we must assassinate the Black Mountain Demon!"

In these words, Lu Jin concealed two pieces of information: Stephen Whitey and Smith.

Firstly, he was able to communicate in real time with Jiang Liu, Hong Guniang, and others.

Secondly, killing the Black Mountain Demon does not necessarily mean one can leave the Ghost Realm.

The reason is simple.

First, the reason they ended up in this situation is ultimately because these two foreigners and that smiling tiger wanted the celestial meteorite and the Qin King's Bone-Illuminating Mirror.

Secondly, Lu Jin did not consider himself and his group to be in a cooperative relationship with these two foreigners.

Third, now that both of them are infected with "Genesis" and the antidote is in Lu Jin's hands, they have no choice but to obey his orders in order to survive and leave the Ghost Realm.

"In short, the fact that things have come to this point is entirely your fault, and you naturally have to bear most of the responsibility!"
