I use deceit to create immortality

Chapter 39: Exchange of Information (please read more)

"Bosom friend! Bosom friend!"

Jin Yiwei took a deep breath and held Jiang Ning's shoulders tightly. Unable to contain the excitement in his heart, he sighed as if he had found an old friend who had been lost for many years:
"We are people who have fallen from the world, so why should we meet before?"

"It turns out that you and I are the same. We both sensed the location of the demonic energy and were forced to be trapped here in order to kill the demons."

"Little brother, the monsters here are extremely vicious, but don't worry, I have found a solution and will definitely take you out."

Jiang Ning was a little dazed by the sudden enthusiasm from the other party.

In the clear pupils of the other party, he seemed to see a fairy tale woven by his brain. He wanted to laugh a little, but he could only hold back his laughter desperately and could not laugh out loud at such a critical moment.

In order to prevent too many loopholes, I have thought about several versions of the story in my mind, and I am worried about which one to tell.

I didn't expect that the other party's "imagination" was so rich, and I didn't need to explain it more.

"My name is Wang Mang, the king of the Wang family, Mang of the rivers and lakes, I wonder what I call my brother?"

"Jiang Ning."

He thought for a while, since he was in this world, the fruit planted by Xiao Xiao was like a spiritual creature born in response to the heaven and earth... except that it did not come from the spiritual energy of the sky, but from the condensed energy of the underworld underground. Done...

Since I have no name or surname, it would be better to use my previous name, which would sound more pleasant to my ears.

"The river flows eastward, bringing peace to the world. What a good name!" Wang Mang praised.

Jiang Ning was almost speechless. It had been so many years since he was born and he had studied culture for so many years. This was the first time he knew that his name could have such a meaningful explanation.

The truth is "refreshing".

However, judging from Wang Mang's age and unpredictable strength, he is fully capable of being his senior brother in every aspect.

But he still used to call himself "I'm here"...

He should be a kind-hearted person, accustomed to the generous spirit of the world, and has never been tainted by worldly fame.

Based on this... I couldn't help but have a good impression of Wang Mang.

Jiang Ning's mind moved, and she suddenly remembered that Wang Mang said that he had found a way out. His eyes lit up, and he quickly bowed and asked:

"Brother Wang, this demon village is very strange. The people inside just died yesterday and came back to life the next day. There is a gloomy atmosphere everywhere. It seems that you can't leave the village rashly... Where did this place come from?"

Wang Mang glanced at Jiang Ning appreciatively, nodded and said:
"Little brother, your intuition and judgment are quite accurate. You really can't go out casually in this village."

"Why?" Jiang Ning's eyes were sharp, and his guess was somewhat confirmed.

Fortunately... I didn't choose to leave the village directly that night, that was the right thing to do.

At that time, he felt that even a Jinyi guard of the third level of Wushen Dao or above would be wanted. Moreover, if the wanted order was not removed for a day, it meant that the other party was still staying in the village. There must be some reason why he could not get out.

With his own strength, he definitely cannot do it casually.

But the specific reason...

Jiang Ning couldn't help but focus for a moment, eager to know the answer.

"There are three reasons."

Wang Mang stepped on the ground and said: "The Array of Cynomorium has been set up here, and the Yin Qi of the earth veins is connected to the surface... To put it bluntly, as long as you step on this soil, the Yang Yuan in your body has been eroded by the earth veins. If you step out at will, you will be affected. The Yin Qi backfires, and then is severely damaged, which may cause a loss of cultivation and make it difficult to improve in life; more serious cases, it may backfire on the consciousness and fall into eternal sleep, or there may be an imbalance of Yin and Yang, causing the skill to go crazy."

No wonder I stepped on this ground with both feet after my [physical body] broke through 450 points, and I felt the Yin Qi gathering into the "Three Yins of the Foot" and conducting it into the body to enhance the practice of the Yin and Yang Wheel and Sea. It turned out to be because of the trick. Formation?
At this moment, Jiang Ning finally understood why he could gather yin energy and improve his cultivation while walking.

It turns out that this village has set up a formation that uses earth veins to gather yin!

However, there must be something wrong with the thought that the corpses here will be resurrected the next day after death.However... the formations related to the earth's veins already rely on the terrain of mountains and swamps. It would be difficult for monks of the fifth level and above to use such magical powers.

But fortunately, this restriction is for orthodox sources like Wang Mang.

What I am practicing is a trick, and what I absorb is Yin Qi. Not only does it not produce any side effects, it actually has the effect of enhancing my practice.

However, since Wang Mang said there are three reasons, there are also two other factors...

Jiang Ning did not interrupt and listened quietly.

"Second, it's because of the old man guarding the village who collects tolls, and the fog in the middle of the night."

"Although there is no fog during the day, the old man guarding the village is as strong as me. Leaving the village entrance rashly will definitely cause a fight. Being entangled will only make himself more dangerous."

"And when midnight comes, the fog is thousands of times more dangerous than the old man guarding the village!"

"You must not enter the fog rashly, otherwise, even if my cultivation level increases by two levels, I will not be able to survive."

Indeed... at night, the fog will surround you, and you won't even have a chance to leave the village!

The only chance is during the day.

But what I didn't expect was that even the old man guarding the village was as powerful as Wang Mang.

The guarantee is also above level three...

Jiang Ning was not surprised by this. The more he understood the strangeness of Annan Town, the more he understood the danger of this place.

At the third level, it is at the level of an elite monster at best.

You know, this is the place where the Princess of the South moved when she fled.

As a country, it is unreasonable to have few powerful bodyguards around you.

Including the factor of fog...Wang Mang has also mentioned it.

Then there is another reason in the end, what exactly is it?

Jiang Ning thought about many possibilities in his mind, but it was difficult to think of other factors, so he had to put on a serious study attitude and continue to listen.

"As for the third reason..."

Wang Mang took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "There are also deceitful ways outside this Annan town."

"Ah?" Jiang Ning couldn't help being surprised.

Wang Mang's face showed a look of contemplation and recollection, and he continued:
"I serve as the Inspection Department at Dali Longcheng on the southern border of Daqian."

"Recently, in the border area, many villages have suffered massacres and bloodthirsty incidents. They were all bitten by demons. However, within a radius of thousands of miles, no demons can be seen or smelled."

"This matter is very strange. It is suspected to be the work of a treacherous monk who can control the demon clan, so the inspection department was dispatched to investigate the matter, but no progress has been made. Several brothers have died recently... I realized that something was wrong. Participate personally in the investigation.”

"As expected, there is a deceitful monk hiding in the border area. His cultivation is unpredictable and he seems to have survived for nearly a thousand years. With his strength, he is no match for him."

"In desperation, I tried my best to escape. Unexpectedly, I only managed to save my life after entering this abandoned village."

"The deceitful monk seems to have set up a maze nearby. Even if he can get out of the village, there is still a hurdle to overcome."

"I'm ashamed to say something..."

"If it weren't for this weird village that intercepted the weird monk, I might not have saved my life!"
