Chapter 16: Baiyue Lake

Deng An didn't hesitate any longer, since the other party was open and honest, if he repented, it would be too stingy, so he recited a few short spells according to his words, for ghosts, it is easier to use this kind of talisman, and there is no need to consume his own yin qi or spiritual power.

The feeling when the talisman was implemented was really a little uncomfortable, similar to the feeling when the soul body was separated, but fortunately, Deng An had this experience, and it was easier to endure it. Soon, he felt that a very faint "self" appeared on the talisman.

"Whew", almost a moment later, the talisman burst into flames and turned into ashes, Deng An was taken aback, he didn't know what was going on, but when he saw Meng Ping's calm face, he relieved himself.

With the disappearance of the talisman, the wisp of consciousness that Deng An separated returned to his body, and what was even stranger was that there seemed to be something more in his consciousness. It contained a destructive aura that made him afraid to touch it.

"This is the soul contract?" Deng An whispered to himself.

"Yes, you must have felt it. Without the consent of both parties to the soul contract, the soul contract cannot be unilaterally terminated. Of course, after ten years, even if both parties renege and are willing to renew the contract, it will still disappear automatically. The lifespan of meditation is several times higher than that of a monk, ten years is very short for you, signing the soul contract will not bring much loss, but you can get a lot of benefits, at least in order to improve your strength, I will often provide items to increase your meditation cultivation, saving you time to look around. ”

The reason why Meng Ping signed a soul contract with Deng An, in addition to the fact that he could not be subdued, there was another important reason, when he cultivated Deng An, he used a Yin Spirit Bead and a Black Leaf Grass, both of which were available but not sought. If Deng An is let go like this, or handed over to the sect, he will get nothing, so it is better to retreat and promise to return Deng An a free body. During these ten years, he had time to find other suitable ghosts, Yin Spirit Beads, Black Leaf Grass, and other things, and then cultivate a Yin Meditation Cultivation.

Since experiencing the last battle with Yin Heirong, Meng Ping has not had much expectation for directly capturing the Yin Cultivation Period, at least it is difficult to do it with his current means, if he can save enough spirit stones and go to the sect to change to a high-level ghost cultivation jar, there may still be a chance.

Moreover, the ghosts that become meditative cultivators are often unruly and untamable, and they can't be tamed at all, and how to be the main soul of the soul flag, only the kind of meditative cultivation cultivated from the ghost cultivation jar can easily erase the consciousness and be driven by themselves.

As for why Deng An was not in this case, he was also puzzled, and secretly consulted several division commanders to confirm that there was no problem with several spells to erase the ghost's sanity, so it could only be attributed to Deng An's strong sanity imprint, which was different from other ghosts.

The soul contract has been signed, Deng An no longer resists, and according to Meng Ping's request, he completely relaxes his mind, and allows the other party to activate the soul banner and include him in it.

The space inside the soul banner was much smaller than that of the ghost raising jar, which made Deng An feel slightly uncomfortable, but fortunately, he could come and go freely, as long as he didn't leave too far, because once he was a little far away, there would be a huge attraction that would pull him back into this range.

Out of the soul flag, Deng An transformed into a faint figure and wandered around Meng Ping's cultivation room, which was the first time he walked with "two feet" after becoming a ghost. Since Iwanyin Peak has been shrouded in clouds for many years, even during the day, I don't feel much discomfort.

Meng Ping did not stop Deng An's activities, he had been quietly watching, judging only from his appearance, the ghost in front of him was similar in age when he died, and he seemed to see another self from Deng An, but in the town ghost gate, in order to compete for limited resources, disciples attacked each other and intrigued, and he had to be vigilant and careful everywhere, and had to suppress his vision of a better future in order to deal with the cruelty of the immortal cultivation world.

When Meng Ping cultivated on his own, Deng An also returned to the Soul Banner, although the space in it was small, it contained a strong yin qi, relatively speaking, it was more conducive to the cultivation of meditation. The low-level meditation cultivation has no meridians, and its cultivation method is very different from that of ordinary monks, mainly relying on instinct, but there are also some simple auxiliary mental methods that can speed up the cultivation time. Since this kind of mental method is very rare, Meng Ping really wanted to get a copy for Deng An, but unfortunately he couldn't achieve it.

......

More than 100 miles north of Yanyin Peak, there is a place called Baiyue Lake.

There are 113 small lakes scattered here, and when the fog clears on the surface of the lake on a full moon night, if you stand on the highest mountain in the east next to the lake, you can see the reflection of the full moon. The scene was beautiful and fascinating.

In the early morning, Baiyue Lake was shrouded in a layer of mist, and a young man dressed in the costume of the town ghost gate leaned over to cut the antler velvet of a short-horned deer, and an illusory human figure floated next to him, watching the young man's every move curiously.

"This short-horned deer is a demon beast?"

"Between and no, they are barely a first-level demon beast, they are all evolved from ordinary deer, thanks to the abundance of spiritual energy in this place, if they are changed to other places, even until they die of old age, they will not be able to complete their evolution. If we go some distance further, we will see a real first-level demon beast, which is our destination. ”

"What are these monster materials used for?"

"Alchemy, refining tools, etc., have a lot of uses, but I don't have this ability, and collecting them is mainly used to exchange for spirit stones, such as the antler velvet of this short-horned deer, which is a common alchemy raw material, and one or two can be exchanged for a low-grade spirit stone. For those of us who have no background, spirit stones have a lot to do with cultivation. ”

"The strength of a first-level demon beast is comparable to that of a Qi cultivation period cultivator?"

"That's pretty much it. When dividing the level of demon beasts, the reference is the level of the monks, the strength of the first-level demon beasts corresponds to the qi training period, the second-level demon beasts correspond to the foundation, and so on. ”

"Are there any second-level demon beasts in Baiyue Lake?"

"Of course there is, but it's all in the center. According to a master of the sect, he once encountered a third-level demon beast, and if it wasn't extremely far away at that time, there was no possibility of escaping at all. You don't have to worry about security, we are just operating on the periphery, these demon beasts have a strong sense of territory, and the periphery are all first-level demon beasts. ”

Along the way, Deng An learned a lot about the cultivation realm.

A few days ago, Meng Ping encountered a spirit stone crisis, and his cultivation was basically at a standstill, so he had no choice but to take Deng An to leave Yanyin Peak and come to Baiyue Lake to hunt demon beasts and find elixirs.

Since he was shrouded in fog all around, he didn't have to worry about the problem of yang energy, so Deng An asked Meng Ping to release him and help him hunt demon beasts by the way. The means of attack he has now are still pitiful, and he can only imitate Yin Heirong and attack with a transfiguration form.

Of course, meditation cultivation has a natural skill, that is, ghost fire, and high-level can also condense ghost fire, but this skill needs guidance, and it is difficult to understand it on his own, Deng An really wants to learn this skill, but unfortunately Meng Ping is short of money and can't take him to ask for advice from the main soul possessed by the predecessors of Zhuji. Because if you go to ask for advice, in addition to paying a certain amount of spirit stones to the predecessors of the foundation, you also need to use the things that you like to envelop the main soul.

However, against the short-horned deer, a monster beast that can barely be regarded as a demon beast, Deng An still plays a great role, in addition to causing some damage, his attack can also make the demon beast have negative emotions, Meng Ping can seize the opportunity to make a decisive blow.

"What a coincidence, Senior Brother Meng!"

Deng An and Meng Ping were chatting about speculation, but they were interrupted by a discordant voice.

Interrupting their conversation was a dark-skinned man with an inch-long scar on the corner of his right eye. Deng An is already familiar with this voice, and it belongs to Li Daxiao, who has had a holiday with Meng Ping. Almost every time they met, he always had to taunt Meng Ping a few words.

There were also two people who accompanied Li Daxiao, both of whom were ordinary disciples of the Ghost Suppression Sect.

"Senior Brother Li, Senior Brother Wu, Senior Brother Chen. Although Meng Ping was extremely disgusted with Li Daxiao, there was still a procedure for face, and he greeted the three of them one by one.

Li Daxiao was not very interested in Meng Ping's coping words, his eyes were slightly confused, and he looked at Deng An, who was illusory on the side, with some greed, and asked: "This is the main soul of Senior Brother Meng's soul flag! ”

"Yes, in the future, we will have to rely on Senior Brother Meng to take care of us a lot. The other two echoed, their eyes never leaving Deng An, and the jealousy in them was undisguised.

Deng An watched coldly and ignored Li Daxiao and the others. He had already understood how difficult it was for an ordinary low-level disciple in the Qi cultivation stage to possess a soul flag.

"It's just luck! If you want to talk about strength, I can catch up with my senior brothers, and my own cultivation is the right way. Senior brother, I still have to hunt demon beasts, so I won't bother the three senior brothers. ”

Meng Ping didn't want to entangle with them, so he turned around and walked towards the depths of Baiyue Lake.

Seeing that Meng Ping and Deng An quickly disappeared into the mist, Li Daxiao and the three of them were silent for a long time, and suddenly, the person surnamed Wu said meaningfully: "Senior Brother Li, Meng Ping, this kid is becoming more and more disagreeable, he thinks that he has a soul flag, so he doesn't take us seriously, I heard that the soul flag originally belonged to the senior brother, and then this son made a stumbling block and deceived Elder Yan to reward the soul flag, and Senior Brother Chen and I both feel that you are unfair." ”

"Sooner or later, I'm going to get back what belongs to me. ”

Li Daxiao clenched his fists tightly, and the killing intent in his eyes burst out

......

"That person named Li Daxiao seems to have a bad heart, you have to be careful!"

"What his idea is, how can I not know, besides, he doesn't dare to do anything to me, murdering the same family is a big crime, unless he doesn't want to mess around in the town. ”

"The heart of defense is indispensable. ”

"Well, you're right, I'll pay attention. ”

After long-term contact, Deng An knew that Meng Ping was not bad-hearted, and kindly reminded him, but Meng Ping didn't pay much attention to it, and Deng An couldn't persuade anything too much.

With the deepening of one person and one ghost, Deng An saw fewer and fewer demon beasts, according to Meng Ping, it was the demon beasts that became more and more powerful, resulting in the territory of their respective divisions getting bigger and bigger, and the number of demon beasts naturally decreased, but the danger also increased. They stopped when they came to a mudflat, the deepest area they could reach.
