Chapter 33 Perfect Body

The ghost crab incident made Tang Jie much more cautious in his next attack.

Although Xiao San can protect him, Tang Jie has no habit of accepting protection. In his opinion, he must cultivate his ability to survive independently at any time, even in the underworld. Secondly, mistress, just like myself, is not tolerated in the underworld. The difference is that in the eyes of ghosts, they mostly appear as food, while in the eyes of mistresses, they mostly appear as natural enemies.

If food appears, they will all rush to it, and there won't be much of a problem. If natural enemies appear, there is no guarantee that they will scream and run away in all directions.

Therefore, if you want to be safe, it is better to have the mistress less with you - without being burdened by yourself, the mistress can hide herself better.

In short, Tang Jie tried his best to hunt alone when conditions permitted.

On this day, Tang Jie swam out of his body as usual.

He carefully concealed his breath and swam upward.

Today he will try to kill a ghost crab.

Only by doing this can he move freely in the river and truly own his own territory.

After swimming upstream for a while, Tang Jie quickly came to the area close to the water, which was already an area where ghost crabs often appeared. He approached carefully, observing everything in Hanoi.

There has been no movement in the water.

But Tang Jie always waited quietly.

Ghosts have no concept of time. Most of the time, they drift by instinct. They have no time to rest and have no patience to wait. So when it will appear is completely determined by God.

But Tang Jie still waited patiently, knowing that the ghost crab would always come.

After waiting for an unknown amount of time, there was finally movement in the river.

A gray-black streamer surged through the water. It looked like a streamer and an undercurrent, but Tang Jie knew that it was a ghost crab.

He stared at the ghost crab, motionless.

As if sensing Tang Jie's gaze, the ghost crab began to move.

It floats and condenses in the water,

Transformed into mist and stretched out its body, two huge fangs emerged from the darkness and stretched towards Tang Jie.

Tang Jie remained motionless, looking at the ghost crab coldly. Just when the claws were about to arrive, Tang Jie suddenly let out a cold snort.

"snort!"

This cold snort was like a sharp thorn hitting the ghost crab, and the ghost crab immediately rolled out billowing black smoke, which was a sign of its trauma.

Tang Jie Gancai's attack seemed simple, but it was an attack directly aimed at the soul level, called the Shocking Thorn, which he learned from the battle with the Immortal Demon Lord. The Shocking Thorns of the Immortal Demon Lord had some unusual reactions. Tang Jie had a rough understanding of them after seeing them with his Third Eye. After careful consideration and sorting, he finally came up with a Tang version of the Shocking Thorns, which probably had the Immortal Demon Lord. Eighty percent of the power was passed on to the deity.

This frightening thorn is tantamount to the innate ability of restraint for the ghost. Just one blow can severely damage the ghost crab. But the ghost was still rolling, and the ghostly energy was rolling towards Tang Jie. Tang Jie put his hands together and pushed the river water to turn into a black water cover to protect himself and block the black mist in front of him. Just a squeaking sound was heard, but it was the sound of the black water cover being corroded by the mist attack.

Tang Jie ignored it and just launched the frightening stab again, stabbing him one after another. The mist rolled around, people were frightened, and the black water was churning under the river bottom, which was already setting off a big battle.

In the end, it was Tang Jie who had the last laugh. Before his black water shield was completely eroded, he used a shock stab to completely disperse the ghost crab and make it die.

As the ghost crab died, a red light fell out.

Tang Jie was surprised to find that it turned out to be a ghost element.

This ghost crab has existed for a long time, and the life energy in its body has condensed into ghost essence.

This stuff is very beneficial to people and nourishes the energy of the soul, so Tang Jie accepted it without hesitation.

After using the ghost essence, Tang Jie clearly felt that his strength had increased again, and it was estimated that it was roughly equivalent to the level of the ninth level. Even Tang Jie himself couldn't believe such rapid progress. This kind of thing would have been a fantasy before.

But here, in this place of the underworld, practicing the magic of stealing the sky and exchanging the sun with the underworld, and then practicing Li Jing, it actually had an incredible effect.

However, for Tang Jie, the biggest benefit of promotion is that he can finally ignore the threat of ghost crabs and truly come and go freely in this river area, taking the first step to travel to the underworld.

From this day on, Tang Jie would swim in the Yanshui River every day.

On the one hand, he hunts ghosts and improves himself, and on the other hand, he also takes the opportunity to practice the ability to conceal his breath.

To survive in the underworld, concealing your aura is essential. Now it is just relying on the Yanshui River to cover up, but in the future, it will eventually get out of the Yanshui River and enter the depths of the underworld.

It's a pity that although there is a breath concealment technique in Huang Quan Dao Jue, the effect is extremely poor. For ghosts whose cultivation level is lower than one's own, the breath can be concealed at a distance of ten feet. For those with the same cultivation level, the breath can be concealed at a distance of no less than a hundred feet. If Those who are higher than themselves can detect their existence even thousands of feet away. Those with higher existences can’t hide within a thousand miles with the sweep of their spiritual thoughts, even if they don’t have the ability to hide their breath.

If this were not the case, then Wang Jue Mie would not have been so embarrassed in the first place.

Tang Jie is good at disguise but not at concealment. Unfortunately, the method of disguise has no effect on ghosts in the underworld, so Tang Jie has to find a way to improve his concealment ability.

If the main body cannot do this, it will eventually fall on the clone.

At the Temple of God, Tang Jie took action again, but this time he summoned Xi Canhen.

When it comes to being invisible, there are really few people in the world who are better than him. Although he practiced the concealment method of Xiyue Sect, he was better than Lan in the early Qing Dynasty. He created his own secret technique of Shen Zang and was the best in the world in concealment.

But when Tang Jie put forward his request, even Xi Canhen frowned.

He said: "It's not that the disciple is unwilling to hand over what he has learned. In fact, what the master wants is a method to hide the vitality, and what he wants is a method that can be practiced by low-level monks. The secret technique of the secret that the disciple practices is based on the magic method. The main purpose is to cover up fluctuations, but it does not suppress the breath of living things. Due to the insight method of human monks, most of them do not pay attention to this. After all, birds, beasts, insects and fish are all living creatures, and observing the enemy's vitality will undoubtedly lead to trouble."

Tang Jie said: "It doesn't matter. You hand over the method and I will study it slowly. Maybe I can come up with some improvement methods."

"If that's the case, then of course it's the best." For Xi Canhen, it would be great if the hidden secret technique could go further. Without any further hesitation, he revealed the hidden secrets of the gods.

After acquiring the secret technique of Shen Zang, Tang Jie discovered that Xi Canhen was right. Although his concealment method was powerful, it was of no use in detecting the enemy's vitality. Fortunately, it was not completely useless. After all, the method of concealment was supposed to be Reduce your sense of existence as much as possible. Vitality is also one of them. If it is too strong, it will inevitably be noticed by others. The hidden secret technique does not completely cover up the vitality, but only reduces one's own vitality to the level of a worm or a fish. In this way, one can naturally deceive people. It is unnecessary to lower one's vitality further, which is just a waste of mana.

But in the underworld, everything is a ghost, and any life is like a candle. Once it appears, it will be discovered, but it must be completely blocked.

Fortunately, the hidden methods of Shenzang Secret Technique and Huang Quan Dao Technique each have their own secrets. If a method is found, it can also be used to incorporate everything.

At that moment, Tang Jie ordered to collect all the scriptures related to vitality from the seven sects, and then used the wisdom path to complete a brand new secret technique that can conceal vitality in seven days. However, this technique has nothing to do with the secret technique of Shen Zang. It needs to be practiced alone. Tang Jie named it the Secret Art of Tongming Netherworld, which means that if you master this technique, you can travel in the underworld without hindrance. The tone is a bit loud, but it is still much better than before. As long as you don't encounter a ghost of the Hades Emperor level, you will be safe.

Tang Jie gave this technique to Xi Canhen as a reward for handing over the divine treasure. After Xi Canhen got it, he felt depressed for a while, thinking to himself, what is the use of this technique? Reducing one's vitality to almost nothing, what else can this kind of thing do besides deceiving ghosts? But I didn’t expect that it was actually used to deceive ghosts.

Putting aside Xi Canhen's depression, just after Tang Jie completed the new technique, I naturally received it and started practicing it every day from now on.

In fact, the Secret Technique of Connecting the Netherworld doesn't really completely reduce the vitality to nothing, but it only greatly increases the concealment ability, making it easy for external objects to detect it. The more powerful the existence, the more likely it is to detect the vitality hidden in it. Therefore, the only thing Tang Jie can do is to improve himself as much as possible. The higher his cultivation level, the less likely he is to be discovered.

In order to improve himself, Tang Jie must go out of Yanshui River to hunt more valuable prey.

This has become an endless loop that cannot be solved. We can only move forward step by step. Even Tang Jie has no choice.

Since taking control of the waters of the Yan River, Tang Jie has never stopped thinking about going out of the river area and exploring distant places.

However, as he travels farther and farther, Xiaosan's protection for him will become lower and lower, and the possibility of him encountering powerful ghosts will become higher and higher, and the danger will increase. That's why Tang Jie must be prepared.

He kept practicing hard.

Now his cultivation level has reached the level equivalent to the ninth rank, and he is about to reach enlightenment.

Back then, when he was refining his body, his level of magic cultivation almost ended here. Since then, his magic ability has not improved any more, and the only thing that has increased is the strength of flesh and blood.

But now everything is different.

Tang Jie clearly felt that his physical body was growing, and so was his magic power.

Yes, the limitations of the highest enlightenment in Dharma practice are now a thing of the past for him.

This is because the reason why the Dharma practice at that time stayed in the state of enlightenment and could not break through was entirely because after the three withering periods, the physical body withered and reshaped the spiritual body.

Those who refine the body mainly focus on the physical body. It is completely meaningless to cultivate the physical body after the physical body withers and reshapes the spiritual body. Therefore, we choose not to enter the three withers and strengthen ourselves.

But the death of Tang Jie himself gave Tang Jie a new opportunity.

The dead physical body is equivalent to the annihilation of the original body, and the resurrected deity in the heart is equivalent to the rebirth of the spiritual body. The great magic of stealing the sky and changing the sun is equivalent to replacing the role of the three dry periods, allowing Tang Jie to complete the transformation from life to death, and then from death to life.

Tang Jie had unintentionally accomplished a huge difficulty that physical cultivation could never overcome.

After cultivating to this point, a truly perfect body will be born!
