"Dividing the soul into thoughts is the most important step before entering the ghost fairyland, and it is also a symbol of the Taoist practitioner's true high-level combat power!"
The divine soul light group dispersed and condensed into diamond-shaped divine thoughts that were as bright as crystals. Jiang Li felt that his perception seemed to be divided into many relatively independent parts.
Every thought has complete perception, and is interconnected with other thoughts in a subtle way, sharing all sensations anytime and anywhere, both independent and unified.
This is a very mysterious feeling, as if perception has given birth to countless tentacles, which can be used for a hundred purposes, or even for a thousand purposes.
You can feel more energy and things at the same time. With one thought, thousands of thoughts rotate at the same time, and you can control many magic weapons.
It is no longer like before the soul was divided. When using magic, the power of the soul can only fly out of the body and control a magic weapon, thus turning the body into an isolated and helpless puppet. Once the soul is injured, it is more likely that the soul will fly away and the body will be destroyed. The path of death disappears.
With the differentiation of spiritual thoughts, the ascetics can truly possess ghost-like means.
And at this stage, you are qualified to break through the barrier of life and death and attack the realm of ghosts and immortals.
As long as the soul condenses into the holy fetus, the soul separates, nourishes the holy fetus with the blood of the physical body, and completes the transformation from virtual to real, a strange existence between virtual and real will be formed, which is what the world calls ghosts and immortals.
The deeper the accumulation of spiritual power before becoming a ghost immortal, the stronger and higher the potential of the transformed ghost immortal will be.
Jiang Li practiced the "Tai Qing Yuan Dao - Golden Light Pillar Ground Heaven Technique" and had many adventures, his martial and Qi veins became holy, and his soul and mind power were nourished in many ways. He had already far surpassed those who were in the same situation to seize the Way of the Body.
Incorporating more than twenty of the Wolf God Lord's second thunder tribulation divine thoughts in the golden pages, regardless of the depth, tenacity and strength of the divine soul, as well as the Yang Soul attribute it contains, it is much more powerful than ordinary ghosts and immortals.
"Shen Nian, sacrifice!"
As soon as Jiang Li's thoughts changed, more than three hundred thoughts floating in front of him suddenly merged together and returned to the altar in Jiang Li's mind.
The Sumeru Ring's brilliance flashed, and more than twenty different artifacts flew out, all of which were the magical artifacts that Jiang Li had harvested before.
As soon as a thought came to his mind, more than twenty thoughts immediately flew out and attached themselves to the magic weapon.
The magic weapon's brilliance suddenly flourished, spinning in mid-air like a dragon or a snake, coming and going like lightning, interweaving a complex and gorgeous light and shadow.
And unlike the real qi and the physical body, where there is always a qi pull that cannot be truly severed, once the spiritual mind leaves the body, it is almost impossible to find any connection with the main body.
It is more hidden and difficult to trace.
"The accumulation of spiritual power is too slow to rely solely on one's own cultivation. The Golden Page has the ability to erase all imprints of spiritual thoughts. Stealing other people's spiritual power for your own use is the best way to quickly attack the life-and-death barrier of ghosts and immortals!"
Jiang Li retracted his thoughts, and more than twenty magical weapons fell to the ground. With a wave of his sleeve, they were all involved in the Sumeru Ring.
Beimang's strength has been greatly reduced, but the masters under his command are well preserved. There are many accomplished Taoists, as well as the gods and monsters who have lost their tribe's followers.
There are hundreds of large and small forces in the Western Region, and there are many branches of religion. The two major temples rule everything, unite their faith, and have a unique inheritance of Taoism. The priests in the temple have profound Taoism, and many people have achieved ghosts and immortals.
Both forces are options for Jiang Li to plunder his spiritual thoughts.
Jiang Li lowered his head and pondered. Just when he was thinking about which force would be most appropriate to take action, several hurried footsteps came from outside the hospital.
"Your Majesty, the eunuch sent by the Holy One to serve as a ceremonial officer, along with all the adults from the Royal Hospital and Qintian Prison, have arrived outside the mansion, and General Zhao is receiving them!"
Several guards of the Protectorate Palace stood in the courtyard and respectfully reported.
"Bring them in!"
Jiang Li nodded, waved his sleeves, and the fire in the medicine stove in the corner of the bedroom suddenly ignited, bursting into scorching heat, and the rich aroma of medicine immediately evaporated, filling the entire bedroom.
In Jiang Li's body, the power of the Heavenly Gang's shape-shifting magical power was secretly circulating, and all the majestic energy and blood were gathered together. His muscles and bones were misaligned, his muscles were broken, and his meridians were connected in a chaotic manner. In an instant, he was transformed from a powerful martial saint into a completely exhausted body.
There are also lingering wisps of ghost power lingering around the body, forming various dark and negative auras that permeate the internal organs.
Just watching from a distance, there is a sense of twilight and withering.
…
"Why did my father-in-law leave in such a hurry? The king's injury has just stabilized and he will be able to get out of bed in a few days. A banquet will be held for you all to express his apology for the poor hospitality and lack of etiquette in the past few days! "
An hour later, the south gate of Anmang City slowly opened. Zhao Tiehe led hundreds of Anmang cavalry to escort the eunuch and his entourage out of the city. He kept making sincere words to persuade them to stay.
"I appreciate the kindness of King An Mang and General Zhao, but it has been more than two months since we left the capital this time. Your Majesty is still waiting for our return, so we cannot delay!"
"King An Mang was injured for his country, and his serious injury has not yet healed. How dare we trouble the king to hold a banquet in his honor!"
Upon hearing this, the eunuch in charge of ceremony and others quickly waved their hands and declined.
Although they have walked out of Anmangxiong City, everyone has still not recovered from the shock just now.
Before leaving Shengjing, they already knew about Jiang Li's injuries, but they still had some doubts and didn't fully believe it.
Entering Anmang to ask for a meeting with Jiang Li was also for the Holy Spirit to verify whether Jiang Li was deceived after suffering severe injuries.
In addition, Jiang Li had been pretending to be ill for some time, which aggravated everyone's suspicions.
Until an hour ago, they walked into the bedroom and saw King Anmang of Zhou who was still unable to get out of bed and walk.
Qi and blood are withered, lifeless, twilight energy is entangled, and ghost breath is strong!
Even without investigating, Eunuch Si Li and others were already eighty-nine percent convinced.
This withered appearance cannot be faked by pretense.
Afterwards, officials from the Royal Hospital and Qintian Prison checked Jiang Li's pulse one after another and were shocked by the tragic state of Jiang Li's body.
The cruel methods of the ghost clan are simply outrageous.
Not only did it completely destroy Jiang Li's body, it also used an extremely clever but inhumane method to disrupt the entire structure of Jiang Li's body and connect them chaotically, achieving a terrifying balance.
Although his vitality was preserved, his physical body could not be healed by any ordinary means. A slight change would break this balance and make Jiang Li die on the spot.
The Imperial Hospital and Qintian Prison were also helpless in dealing with this situation.
Unless the human immortal takes action, there is no possibility of recovery. Jiang Li will suffer from the torture of his broken body throughout his life. Life is worse than death. He endures all kinds of pain caused by his chaotic body every moment and cannot escape.
Although the Holy One can feel at ease now, there is no need to worry about the possibility of Jiang Li having any different intentions.
But the Great Zhou Dynasty also lost a young military god who was victorious in every battle.
Blessed?
Woe!
Everyone couldn't help but feel a little heavy and regretful when they thought that the generation of young vassal kings who once had high spirits and roamed the wilderness had come to an end.
Looking back on the many doubts and speculations about King An Mang in the past few days, I feel ashamed.
"Since you have decided to leave, it is not convenient for Zhao to stay. But you have also seen the situation in Anmang City and the king!"
Zhao Tiehe clasped his fists and sighed: "Originally, I, An Mang, was prospering under the king's rule, and I had the determination to sweep across Beimang and conquer the Western Regions as a saint, but now the king has suffered heavy losses, and many of the masters have left.
"An Mangkong has 400,000 cavalry, but no generals to lead the army. It is beyond the reach of all the strength to be able to defend Li Province for the Holy Lord. I am afraid that I will not be able to contribute to the Holy Lord in the short term. The King's condition makes it inappropriate to travel long distances!"
Zhao Tiehe spoke sincerely, and his face was full of sadness and worry, which made everyone feel a little sour in their hearts.
The eunuch in charge of the ceremony also quickly comforted: "General Zhao, don't think too much. The Holy One sent us here just to care about the safety of King An Mang. King An Mang's loyalty to the Holy One and the Great Zhou Dynasty is known to everyone in the world. Please rest in peace and recover from King An Mang's illness. Your Majesty will definitely sympathize with the difficulty of leaving the province!"
"So, sir, I would like to inform the Holy One on behalf of my king. As long as the King's injury is stable, he will definitely leave immediately to go to Shengjing to pay homage to the Holy One!"
Zhao Tiehe saluted again.
"General Zhao, please come back, I'll be waiting!"
The eunuch in charge of ceremony returned the greeting, and led a group of officials to pull the reins and gallop toward the Great Wall of the North.
Looking back at the smaller and smaller Anmang Gucheng behind them, and the figures of the Anmang generals who stood outside the city for a long time and refused to leave, many people secretly shook their heads and sighed.
The heroic army that was supposed to be rising has already come to an end before it can truly rise.
After this, Anmang City will gradually fade out of the power whirlpool of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
The magical legend of a generation of young kings has also come to an abrupt end.
"Father-in-law, look over there!"
A Qin Tian Supervisor Si Li suddenly raised his hand and pointed to the west, a little surprised: "The flag of that team seems to be the Iron Thorn Mercenary Alliance of the Western Regions!"
"I heard a long time ago that the establishment of Anmang City had the shadow of the Western Region Mercenary Alliance, and now it seems that it is indeed true!"
"Although there have been few large-scale military campaigns between the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Western Regions in recent years, the two sides are still in a state of hostility. There seems to be something wrong with King Anmang's close contacts with the mercenaries from the Western Regions!"
When everyone heard the sound, they turned around and saw a powerful team consisting of hundreds of men and horses, galloping from the west, rushing toward Anmang City like a wind and a lingering cloud.
The Anmang cavalry and the soldiers guarding the city gate along the way seemed to be very familiar with this team. They only briefly checked and then let them go.
"Anmang City is built on the wasteland and lacks supplies. It is far away from the Great Zhou Dynasty, but close to the Western Regions. It is reasonable for King Anmang to seek help from the mercenaries from the Western Regions!"
The eunuch in charge of Li saw this, but he didn't take it seriously: "After returning to Shengjing, I will report to the Holy Shang the current difficult situation of Anmang City. As long as the Holy Shang relaxes the trade restrictions on Li Province, Jiang Li will definitely reduce its ties with the Western Regions. connect!"
As one of the twelve chief officials of Emperor Jing in the palace, the eunuch in charge of rituals is by no means an ordinary person. He also has his own grasp of Emperor Jing's thoughts and the general trend of the world.
Emperor Jing was indeed afraid of Jiang Li, but he never doubted that Jiang Li would betray the Zhou Dynasty and defect to the Western Regions and Beimang.
Although these two forces are powerful, they have no advantage at all compared to the Great Zhou Dynasty.
What's more, Jiang Li is already a prince. Even if he joins the Western Region and Beimang, he will not be able to obtain higher status and authority.
Naturally, there is no need for more attention and suspicion.
Seeing that the eunuch in charge of ceremonies had made a conclusion, everyone said no more.
After all, no one would believe that Jiang Li would abandon the Great Zhou Dynasty and turn to the countries in the Western Regions.
…
"King An Mang, your body is really ruined by the ghost clan. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have thought those rumors were the mist you deliberately released!"
As soon as the mercenary leader Fu Di arrived at Anmang City, he met Zhao Tiehe standing outside the city. Under his guidance, he walked into the Anmang Protectorate and met the "bedridden" Jiang Li.
Looking at the lifeless and gloomy King Anmang of Zhou Dynasty on the bed, Fu Di was shocked and his eyes were full of regret.
Although his friendship with Jiang Li was deep, it came more from the exchange of interests. Now that Jiang Li's body has been crippled and his potential has been exhausted, he has also lost a potential top business partner.
"Do I look like this just for show?"
Jiang Li coughed twice, and with the support of two Hu Ji maidservants, he slowly leaned on the cushion at the head of the bed and motioned for Fu Di to sit down.
"King An Mang, you are so anxious to summon me here, but do you want to find some heavenly materials, earthly treasures and panacea to repair your body?"
Fu Di couldn't help but look at Jiang Li and thought: "If your injuries are really like the rumors, the meridians and muscles have been disrupted by the ghosts. In addition to practicing Taoism and becoming a ghost and immortal corpse in the future, you will be reincarnated." You can only find a human being to help you rebuild your body!"
"What can you do?"
Jiang Li couldn't help but feel something in his heart when he saw Fu Di looking thoughtful.
"There are no ways, but it's hard to say how much it can help you!"
Fu Di thought for a while and said: "Let's talk about turning to Taoism first. Although Taoism focuses on cultivating spiritual thoughts, if the physical body is damaged or weak, it will also affect the soul. Especially in the process of becoming a ghost and immortal, the physical body and Yang soul cannot do anything. It is more than twice as difficult for the soul to provide sufficient nourishment and feedback as it is for normal people.
"The practice of Taoism is inherently difficult. It tests your will and character. Your body will be destroyed and your state of mind will inevitably be affected. The difficulty of converting to Taoism will increase a lot. But compared to rebuilding your body, practicing Taoism is indeed This is a once and for all move. Once you become a ghost immortal, you will no longer be bound by the physical body and longevity!"
Fu Di looked around subconsciously, and then whispered: "Your current situation is not suitable for practicing Taoism, but it is not impossible to solve it. You should be aware of the two major sects of the Western Region Pantheon and the Sun and Moon Temple.
"They believe in their respective gods, gather the power of faith, and each has its own unique inheritance. They also possess many heaven-defying treasures, many of which can strengthen the soul, make up for the origin, and also include treasures that can repair the body!"
"How much do you know?"
Jiang Li was a little surprised. He had just entered the late stage of seizing the body, his mind was divided, and he was about to plunder everywhere.
"I basically don't know that much!"
Fu Di scratched his head in embarrassment, for fear of being looked down upon by Jiang Li: "It's not that I have little knowledge, but the status of the two major temples in the Western Region is too high. Unless you have served as a priest or protector of the two temples, most of the secrets are hidden. It will not be passed on to the outside world, even the kings of Tuyuan and Dashi will not know more than me!"
"There is no difference between this and not saying anything!" Zhao Tiehe said.
"Although I don't know much about the two major temples of the Ten Thousand Gods and the Sun and Moon, there are many sects in the Western Region, and it's not just these two major sects!"
Fu Di curled his lips and said: "And many small religions are also branched from the Pantheon Temple and the Sun and Moon Temple. Although their strength is not as strong as the two major temples, they should not be underestimated.
"I know that a sect called the Jingyuan Sect issued a reward some time ago. If you can complete the task, you can get a treasure collected by the Jingyuan Sect. It is said that this treasure comes from the Sun and Moon Temple. It is a weapon that can enhance A strange object from the origin of the soul!”
"Jingyuan Cult!"
Jiang Li thought carefully and vaguely remembered that he had read records about the Jingyuan Sect in Dazhou's "Jiuzhou Chronicle".
It is said that in the late Middle Ages, this religion was once a great religion in the Western Regions as famous as the Ten Thousand Gods and the Sun and Moon Temples.
However, because of the appearance of a leader who rebelled against the teachings and personally killed the three gods who had been worshiped in the main altar for more than ten thousand years, this led to the defection of believers and the rapid decline of the sect.
Although dozens of generations of sect leaders later reunited their faith and spread their teachings widely, it was still difficult to reverse the decline. To this day, it is still a small and unknown sect in the West.
However, it is really unexpected that such a sect can take out the treasure from the Sun and Moon Temple as a bounty.
"Fu Di, why is the Jingyuan Sect offering a reward? Where is their sect?"
Zhao Tiehe asked urgently: "Such a little teacher dares to blatantly offer a reward for a treasure without fear of being robbed?"
He rubbed his hands, his eyes were filled with fire, and he had the intention of immediately leading troops to seize it after finding out about the Jingyuan Sect Headquarters.
"I advise you not to be impulsive. We in the Western Region have our own rules. If we find you leading troops in, I'm afraid other sects will besiege you without the Jingyuan Sect taking action!"
Fu Di warned seriously: "The sects in the Western Regions are all inextricably linked, and the gods also have their own promises and taboos. The reason why the Jingyuan Sect dares to use the treasures of the Sun and Moon Temple for rewards is because It's because of some contracts between the gods.
"As long as the Sun and Moon Temple does not interfere, other sects and even countries will not be interested in treasures. Once they do, the Sun and Moon Temple will definitely punish you!"
"There is such a thing!" Zhao Tiehe was very surprised.
"Fu Di, what exactly is the reward offered by the Jingyuan Sect?" Jiang Li asked.
"King of Yeshan, Yehaisha!"
Fu Di said this with a puzzled expression: "The Jingyuan Cult is offering a reward for the whereabouts of Ye Haisha. As long as someone can provide the whereabouts of Ye Haisha and help the Jingyuan Cult find this person, they can get the soul treasure! "
"Lord of Yeshan Kingdom!"
Jiang Li narrowed his eyes slightly, flashing a spark that no one noticed, "Fu Di, when did the Jingyuan Sect issue the reward order?"
"About three months ago!" Fu Di thought for a moment.
"As expected!"
Jiang Li remained calm, but nodded secretly in his heart.
Three months ago, it was when Ye Haisha was shot to death in the underground abyss.
The Jingyuan Sect was actually able to notice when Ye Haisha fell. The relationship between the two is absolutely profound.
Could it be that the Jingyuan Sect is also controlled by the reincarnated ghost race aliens?
"It's strange to say that since the Lord of the Yeshan Kingdom left the capital without any warning more than half a year ago, there has been no news and no whereabouts since then. There have long been rumors that he encountered an accident and died long ago. Nowadays, there are undercurrents in the Yeshan Kingdom. Move, many forces are coveting the position of king!"
Fu Di sighed and said, "I sent people to check for traces of Ye Haisha a long time ago. Except that I found that the last place he appeared was at the border of Mangzhou, I couldn't find anything. It's like this person suddenly disappeared!"
