335: The "Ghost and God Guidance" can only be practiced after death

“Hey, this cat.”

Mo Yuntao, Director of the Martial Security Bureau laughed, pointed at the Little Black Cat, then bent down to pick up the drugged White Mouse. He flicked it unconscious, then took out a dissection table and began dissecting it on the spot.

“All its fur has fallen out. Under a 2300x microscope, no traces of hair follicles were found.”

“Its muscle fibers are thicker than those of an ordinary White Mouse, and its internal organs are also enhanced to adapt to a stronger body. However, its nervous System has not been strengthened, making its neural responses somewhat slow.”

“This means the red flower contains some special substance that can temporarily increase a creature’s physical capabilities.”

“Perhaps it can be combined with Firefly Bug powder and water from the Netherworld Pool to strengthen the nervous System, resolving the drawback of the nervous System not being synchronously enhanced.”

After a simple test of the red flower, he took out a small shovel and began digging directly into the flowerbed.

After digging three to five meters deep and finding nothing, he took some soil and leaf samples and placed them under the microscope, finally reaching a new conclusion:

“No other living organisms or living microorganisms have been found to exist in the Netherworld yet.”

After speaking, he looked up at the red mist in the sky.

The red mist seemed to sense his gaze and immediately began to fade and etherealize, eventually disappearing.

Yang Dian also gave him a thumbs up:

“Director Mo, that’s professional.”

Mo Yuntao, Director of the Martial Security Bureau waved his hand:

“Oh, I’m used to it.”

“When I went on field training before, I wasn’t prepared enough. Not only did I get food poisoning and had diarrhea for three days and three nights, but I also implicated a young soldier. Since then, I’ve become a bit more cautious.”

‘This isn’t something that can be explained by just ‘cautious’.’

Just as Yang Dian thought this, he saw Mo Yuntao, Director of the Martial Security Bureau put his finger into the pool water that had been scooped into a ladle.

The dark blue pool water turned white at a visible speed, and Mo Yuntao, Director of the Martial Security Bureau frowned and said:

“The pool water’s effect began to decline significantly after only a few minutes of leaving the pool.”

“It is estimated that it will be completely ineffective after 10 minutes of leaving the pool.”

After speaking, he pointed to the steps at their feet, the red flowers along the steps, the Blue Moon hanging over the waterfall, as well as the waterfall, the pool, and the red mist that had disappeared from the sky.

“The pool water’s effect of refining the spirit is probably related to these things, which is to say, the terrain.”

“This is probably some kind of geomancy array.”

“Once the geomancy changes, or if the pool water is taken out of the pool, it will gradually lose its effect.”

“Besides that, this dimensional rift should form its own cycle. The pool water’s effect of tempering the spirit might be related to the creatures that died on the steps. We can try bringing some Mutated Cockroaches here, killing them, and conducting an experiment.”

Upon hearing this, Yang Dian walked over to Old Daoist Qingfeng and nudged the Old Daoist with his elbow:

“Daoist, how come Director Mo seems even more professional than you?”

The Old Daoist squinted at Yang Dian:

“I just don’t want to argue with him, otherwise, how could his amateur skills compare to mine?”

After a stubborn remark, the Old Daoist continued:

“Is there anything else here?”

“If not, let’s leave early. This place feels quite eerie if you stay too long.”

Yang Dian nodded, then leaped onto the waterfall and turned to look at Mo Yuntao, Director of the Martial Security Bureau, who had followed him up:

“Director Mo, the grand geomancy array might be broken.”

Mo Yuntao, Director of the Martial Security Bureau raised an eyebrow:

“Is there something inside this Blue Moon?”

Yang Dian nodded and extended his right hand towards the round moon.

The round moon hanging above the waterfall, though called a moon, was actually a blue sphere less than nine meters in diameter.

It was only called the Blue Moon by everyone because it resembled the moon from a distance.

To avoid damaging the grand geomancy array that Mo Yuntao, Director of the Martial Security Bureau spoke of, Yang Dian didn’t shatter the Blue Moon. Instead, he calculated its center, folded space, then opened a spatial channel and reached his hand into the Blue Moon’s core.

After fumbling around twice by feel, an apple-sized sphere was grasped in his palm.

He withdrew his right hand, shook off the blue viscous liquid, and then opened his hand to reveal a jet-black stone bead with several concentric circles carved on its surface, appearing in Yang Dian’s palm.

As soon as the stone bead left the Blue Moon, Yang Dian felt the surrounding temperature rapidly rise.

Although it still felt a bit cold, this coldness had already risen to a level acceptable to ordinary people.

“Is there really a grand geomancy array?”

He muttered, his gaze falling upon the stone bead in his palm. Looking at the concentric circles on the stone bead, Yang Dian subconsciously blinked, and a thought suddenly arose in his mind.

‘Why does this thing look like an eyeball?’

As soon as the thought emerged, the concentric circles on the stone bead in his palm also closed slightly.

Before he could be surprised, Yang Dian felt his mind swell, and countless pieces of information appeared out of nowhere in his mind.

““Guishen Yin”…”

Old Daoist Qingfeng and Mo Yuntao, Director of the Martial Security Bureau, hearing the three words that came from Yang Dian’s mouth, looked at the black stone bead that had turned into stone powder and scattered from his palm, and couldn’t help but exchange glances.

“He got another benefit?”

Mo Yuntao, Director of the Martial Security Bureau showed a matter-of-fact expression upon hearing this:

“Is it not normal for him to get benefits? If you, Old Daoist, had the ability, you would go to an Alien Planet, chop off a star core fragment, and then smash the entire star core. Then you would definitely not be without benefits.”

Old Daoist Qingfeng sneered:

“If I had that ability, would I still be bickering with you here? I would have gone to Cultivate immortality long ago.”

After a sneer, he looked at Yang Dian, who had closed his eyes as if in a state of unconsciousness, and the black cat in front of Yang Dian, who was looking at the two of them with a wary expression.

“The cat is a good cat, and the person is also a good person.”

“I just don’t know what he got this time. I hope it’s not something like the Divine Dao Inheritance that can’t be casually passed on.”

“Hard to say.” Mo Yuntao, Director of the Martial Security Bureau shook his head:

“He just said the three words “Guishen Yin”. Maybe it’s some Cultivation Technique for sacrificing to ghosts and gods, or for Cultivating oneself into a ghost and god.”

“It’s good that this kind of Cultivation Technique stays with him, at least we don’t have to worry about it leaking out…”

…While the two chatted, Yang Dian also began to quickly sort through the information he had obtained from the black stone bead, or rather, the eyeball.

‘“Guishen Yin”, an Alien Planet Cultivation Technique.’

‘When a person dies, their Dao dissipates, but if their obsession remains and a remnant soul persists, they can become a ghost.’

‘Ghosts, when worshipped by people, become gods.’

‘Ghosts and gods devour people, devour evil thoughts, devour incense offerings.’

‘“Guishen Yin” is a Cultivation Technique that guides people to Cultivate into ghosts and gods.’

‘And ghosts and gods are merely the lowest tier of existence among the ‘ghosts and gods’ of the other world.’

‘Humans die and become ghosts, ghosts die and become ‘jian’, ‘jian’ die and become ‘xi’, ‘xi’ die and become ‘yi’, ‘yi’ die and become ‘wei’, ‘wei’ die and become formless.’

‘From the formless, the form arises, which is transcendence.’

‘So, the Alien Planet Cultivation method is a Cultivation method that can only truly begin after one dies?’

‘Using people’s thoughts to forge a golden body, and once the golden body is strong enough, dying again. If one doesn’t completely die through, they evolve to the next stage, then forge another golden body, then die again…’

‘Each time one dies, a segment of information left in the world decreases.’

‘Until the last death, becoming formless and intangible, even the concept of existence disappears, then one can rely on a single indestructible true spirit to reshape their form from nothingness, becoming that omnipresent, all-pervading, omnipotent transcendent state?’
