The Lord of Void and Real
Chapter 565

Chapter 565: Chapter 561: War General Zhao Feiji Chapter 565: Chapter 561: War General Zhao Feiji “As expected of a Ghost Cultivator, there had to be some tricks in his Storage Ring.” Shen Luo sneered softly, his palm slowly clenched into a fist.

Immediately, the body of water lit up with a water-blue glow and began to shrink bit by bit with Shen Luo's movement, rapidly compressing the poisonous gas stored inside until it became the size of a fist.

Shen Luo went to the window, pushed it open, and threw it outside. Then, with a single hand forming a magic spell, a water dragon shot straight into the sky, grabbing the water ball and flying up to a hundred feet high.

As a “bang” sound echoed, a cloud of green smoke exploded in the air, gradually dispersing with the wind, leaving only the Storage Ring falling from the sky.

Shen Luo's gaze condensed as he flicked his fingers, a water rope extended, wrapping around the ring and pulling it back.

He once again swept his palm, channeling Mana into the Storage Ring and the items hidden within it surfaced on the table one after another.

In comparison to the Red Hands Master, the items hidden in Dan Yangzi's Storage Ring were much more diverse. There were various bottles and jars, about a dozen of them, along with three jade boxes and wooden boxes, over a hundred pieces of Immortal jades and an old book made of leather material.

Shen Luo's gaze swept over all the items. After careful examination and finding no more tampering, he then began checking the items one by one.

The first item he picked up was the old book made of leather. Upon taking a closer look at its cover, he felt a slight chill, as a vague outline of a human face could be seen on the book cover, as if it was made from flayed human skin.

On the face, a few big characters were stitched with red threads: “Hundred Ghosts Infused in Body Dao”.

Out of curiosity, Shen Luo opened the book and skimmed through it. He quickly discovered that it was a manual instructing Ghost Cultivators on how to refine and infuse Killing Ghosts into one's body.

The cultivation level of this method would increase as one absorbs more and more Killing Ghosts. According to the theory mentioned in the book, if one could hold up to a hundred ghosts within their body, they might be able to achieve the Heavenly Tribulation and become Feathered.

Upon successfully overcoming the extremely dangerous Heavenly Tribulation, the cultivators of this path would undergo a complete change and become Ghost Immortals, all the Hundred Ghosts they held in their bodies would ascend along with them and achieve transcendence.

However, the founder of this method never achieved this himself. Instead, he was bitten back by the Killing Ghosts and ended up recording the method in this human skin book on his deathbed.

It seemed like Dan Yangzi only started practicing this method half-way, and there were only a handful of Killing Ghosts within his body.

When Shen Luo checked the bottles and jars, he found that most of them contained healing pills. A few had unique effects and were specifically made for treating Gu Poison of Yin Corpses.

There were also some, which contained Soul Dispersion Pills and Bone Dissolving Powder, all of them were intense poisons.

After the inspection, the only items left unopened were three boxes. Shen Luo noticed a familiar one, picked it up, and opened it first.

Upon opening the lid, Shen Luo frowned. The box didn't contain anything else but Xuanxiao's Double Pupils Ghost Eyes, all four pupils were wide open, staring straight up with remaining blood stains. It was rather intimidating.

Shen Luo closed the box and was about to put it down when he suddenly remembered something. He picked up the “Hundred Ghosts Infused in Body Dao” again, flipped to the back and found an independent section, which he recorded.

After this, he put the human skin book away, and swooshed his hand over his Qiankun Bag. Black smoke gushed out from it, and the figure of the Ghost General followed.

“Greeting, my lord.” The Ghost General bowed.

“No need for such formalities.” Shen Luo glanced at him and said.

After the Ghost General straightened up, he immediately handed over a chunk of White Ice Crystal and said, “My lord, this treasure has been kept by me for a long time. It's time to return it to you.”

Shen Luo glanced at the Ice Crystal, and instantly remembered that it was the Golden Short Awl he had snatched from the hands of the Jing River Dragon King.

He took the Ice Crystal and gently brushed it with his hand. The surrounding ice began to melt immediately, revealing a half-foot-long golden awl, curved and sharp as a dragon's horn.

Shen Luo initially wanted to try refining this object immediately, but when he saw that the Ghost General was standing aside, he suddenly remembered what he intended to do. He then put away the golden short awl, pointed to the jade box on the table, and asked:

“Do you recognize this item?”

Upon hearing this, the Ghost General took a careful look and a trace of surprise flashed across his eyes.

“Dare I ask, Master, are these a pair of Double Pupils Ghost Eyes?” He hesitated to ask.

“Yes, these should be of some use to you, right?” Shen Luo asked.

“Useful, very useful. If I possess these pair of eyes, my cultivation progress will surely be doubled. I can also rely on the abilities of these eyes to help you oversee a hundred ghosts and ensure that you are not fooled by ghostly matters,” the Ghost General quickly replied.

“Good, in that case, I will teach you a melting technique to help you refine these ghost eyes into your own use,” Shen Luo said.

“Thank you for your grace, Master. I will repay you a hundredfold,” the Ghost General thanked again with a fist-palm salute.

Shen Luo thought for a moment and began recounting the passage he had earlier taken from the human skin book to the Ghost General via telepathy, making him nod repeatedly and become excited.

“Alright, remember this melting mantra on your own. Take these ghost eyes and refine them well.” A moment later, Shen Luo said.

“Thank you, Master.”

The Ghost General kowtowed on the ground, lifting his hands, receiving the ghost eyes, but hesitated to get up.

“What's the matter, is there something else?” Shen Luo asked.

“If I may be honest with you, Master. Up until now, I have been wandering as a spirit, having lost much of my past memories. But recently, as my cultivation level increased, I am gradually remembering a few things, including my own name,” the Ghost General confessed from the ground.

“So you want to use your original name?” Shen Luo asked.

“I request your permission, Master,” the Ghost General requested.

“There's no harm in that. Tell me, what is your real name?” Shen Luo asked, with a slight furrow on his forehead.

“My original name is Zhao Feiji. I was a war general in the previous dynasty. After dying in battle, I became a wandering ghost,” the Ghost General said, joining his fists.

“Zhao Feiji, a forceful name indeed. Not bad,” Shen Luo nodded and said with a smile.

“Thank you, Master,” Zhao Feiji thanked him again, holding his fists together.

Shen Luo pondered after putting away Ghost General Zhao Feiji into his Qiankun Bag, appearing somewhat hesitant.

However, after some deliberation, he decided to stick with his initial decision and not give Zhao Feiji the entire “Hundred Ghosts Infused in Body Dao”, waiting to observe for some more time before making a decision.

Afterwards, he opened the remaining two wooden boxes, which respectively contained a bell the size of a walnut and a fox skin talisman.

On the walnut-sized bell, a strange-looking big-eared exotic beast was engraved. There was no sound when shaken, but when Shen Luo infused mana into it and shook it, a series of “ding-dong” noises immediately sounded.

The sound was extremely penetrating and seemed to have the ability to disrupt the divine soul. However, the level of the bell itself wasn't high, just a mid-grade magical tool. Even if it could disturb the divine soul of others, the effect would not be too strong.

As for the fox skin talisman, it was interesting. There was no prohibition on it. After Shen Luo infused mana into it, the surface suddenly lit up, transforming into an attractive female disguise. Wearing it would have the ability to alter one's appearance, which seemed much superior to Xie Yuxin's disguise technique.

The inadequacy was that this fox skin talisman could only take one form and could not be changed at will. Also, its frequent use would cause wear and tear, and once destroyed, it could not be repaired.
