He Wanted His Body for a Use
One Brush Saint Hall.
Inside the main hall.
Qin Zhen, the head of the Holy Temple, was present with a group of Holy Temple elders, discussing the matter of the previous bell ringing.
"Has anything been found out?"
Qin Zhen looked at an elder.
The elder, surrounded by numerous documents, paused briefly upon hearing this, then shook his head and said:
"The ancient texts of the sanctuary only record nine or ten bell chimes; nothing has been found to date."
Upon hearing this, all the elders present shook their heads slightly.
Many elders showed expressions of worry on their faces.
"Could this be some kind of bad omen?"
Suddenly, a presence appeared, rushing towards them from a distance.
As soon as he entered, he looked at Qin Zhen and transmitted his voice:
"Master, something terrible has happened!"
Qin Zhen looked over, and was about to speak when he heard the newcomer continue:
"The old master's soul lamp has gone out!"
"What!"
Qin Zhen's expression changed drastically, and he even forgot to use telepathy, saying directly:
"How is that possible!"
"Master, what's wrong?" Everyone looked over.
"It's nothing." Qin Zhen took a deep breath and waved his hand.
"There are some things at home; you guys discuss them first, I'll go take care of them."
After saying that, he quickly left and headed to the place where the soul lamps of the members of the Holy Temple were stored.
When did this happen?!
On the way, Qin Zhen asked a question.
"Just a short while ago."
Qin Zhen moved even faster.
In recent years, One Brush Saint Hall's strength has not been what it used to be, and it can hardly be considered prosperous.
The old patriarch ended the internal strife within the One Brush Saint Hall, which allowed the One Brush Saint Hall to now unite its strength to accomplish its tasks.
But if the old master were to truly perish, it would be adding insult to injury.
After a dozen or so breaths, the two activated a series of protective measures and arrived at the location where the high-level soul lamps were stored.
All the soul lamps had been extinguished and were placed in a certain position.
Qin Zhen's gaze swept across the room and quickly landed on a soul lamp.
The soul lamp was above his soul lamp, and directly below it was marked with a name, which was none other than the old hall master, Jiang Muqing.
And indeed, the light of the soul lamp had ceased to exist.
Qin Zhen's heart sank suddenly.
"Could it be because of the bell?"
He told the old master about the bell, and the master said he would investigate.
But how much time has passed?
Qin Zhen immediately turned around, preparing to go and see where Jiang Muqing was cultivating.
Suddenly, a voice rang out, filled with shock and disbelief:
"Master, look!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Zhen turned around.
The next moment, his expression suddenly changed:
"This, this, this..."
The extinguished soul lamp suddenly began to shine again.
Qin Zhen blinked, checked several times, then turned and asked:
What does this situation mean?
Upon hearing this, the man scratched his head several times.
"It shouldn't be a resurrection. Perhaps it went to some special place and came back, which is why the soul lamp temporarily went out."
He knew very little about this, and even this knowledge came from ancient books he came across by chance.
Qin Zhen glanced at the soul lamp a few more times:
"It seems we can only figure this out when the old master returns."
In the void.
On the way back.
Seeing that Lu Changzhi seemed to have finished his work, Lu Yuan asked:
"So, just now, I came out of his stomach?"
Lu Changzhi nodded and smiled:
"You seem quite surprised, senior?"
Lu Yuan nodded emphatically and said:
"What methods did you use to make me go inside his body and then come out again?"
"Just disguise the storage ring as something delicious," Lu Changzhi said.
"Is it really that simple?" Lu Yuan asked with some skepticism.
"I don't know his exact strength, but his level of cultivation is certainly not bad."
"Indeed, it's not bad." Lu Changzhi nodded, then changed the subject, saying:
"But senior, you don't need to overcomplicate things. If something is beneficial enough to a person, they'll easily overlook any pitfalls it might have, right?"
Lu Yuan gave Lu Changzhi a deep look.
For someone like him who is accustomed to direct confrontation.
Lu Changzhi's methods and tactics in dealing with people are far too cunning.
And, insidious.
If it were him, he would have had a hard time withstanding a punch like that.
Lu Yuan felt a surge of emotion.
At this moment, Lu Changzhi handed over some dried meat.
Lu Yuan looked over, and remembering what Lu Changzhi had just said, he couldn't help but speak up:
"You just said that, and now you're giving me jerky... this..."
Lu Changzhi laughed heartily:
"Don't worry, senior, I don't want anything from you."
Lu Yuan took the dried meat, his gaze turning curiously to Lu Changzhi, and said:
"What did you want from killing that guy just now?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Changzhi's lips curled into a smile, a hint of amusement in his expression:
"I'm after his body."
As soon as he finished speaking, the space fell into an eerie silence.
Lu Yuan swallowed hard, glanced at Lu Changzhi, then pulled his robe tighter around himself.
Lu Changzhi smiled upon seeing this:
"You'll find out later, senior."
In fact, he did indeed want Jiang Muqing's body, but in a very proper way.
When he learned that the visitor was the One Brush Saint Hall, some thoughts began to form in his mind.
It's like having a pillow delivered when you're sleepy. If the One Brush Saint Hall can fulfill my needs, then I won't need to trouble the sect's patriarch.
At that time, I will hand over the fruits of my labor to the One Brush Saint Hall, and the blame will fall on the other.
Just.
However, all of this is based on one of his guesses.
Does the Resurrection System allow you to revive people you just killed?
If this can be achieved, then the possibilities for utilizing this Resurrection System can be further expanded.
There's no need to go through the complicated process of turning the enemy of the enemy into a friend; even a direct enemy can become an ally.
The truth is, it doesn't work.
At least right after killing someone, while the situation is still fresh, there's no way to use the system to revive them.
But,
Just because it doesn't work when it's hot doesn't mean it won't work when it's cold.
After some experimentation, it was found that as long as the burial and tombstone erection procedures were followed, the body could be revived.
Right now, taking advantage of the convenience of self-burial and self-digging, Jiang Muqing, at least in a physical sense...
He hadn't been dead for very long.
"I just don't know if the One Brush Saint Hall can do what I need."
Lu Changzhi glanced into the distance and said softly.
After waiting outside for a while, Lu Changzhi returned to the house.
He skillfully retrieved his External Avatar, then entered the system to view his disciple's information.
The original plan Descent directly at Mu Fan's location.
Lu Changzhi's gaze fell upon Qin Li's information:
"It's been so long, and I haven't heard anything from Qin Li's side. But she has improved her cultivation level again, so it seems that her time traveling around has been very fruitful."
After checking the system, it was found that the lower-level Beast Race who originally boosted cultivation speed and aptitude had now been largely replaced.
Go and see what her situation is like now.
With this thought in mind, Lu Changzhi soft sentence and chose to Descent Qin Li.
