Chapter 156: The Magic Way

Chapter 156: The Magic Way
After seeing off Huang Yunying, who had been asking about his well-being, Cheng Xinzhan finally had time to see what he had brought.

First, there were some herbs and spiritual fruits. For those who practice cultivation, the only thing they would not want is too little, not too much. Moreover, he had never seen many herbs and spiritual fruits from overseas before, so he put them all into the cave stone.

There is also a formation diagram, which has the effects of concealment, concealment, hallucination, and spirit gathering. It is a relatively common formation diagram for Taoist temples. This formation diagram is driven by the power of water and fire, which is suitable for Honglu Island.

Cheng Xinzhan immediately sacrificed the formation diagram and then set it up on Honglu Island. Immediately, the smoke waves on the sea and the fireworks under the island rose up, mixing into a ball of green and yellow mist, surrounding Honglu Island.

This is much better, as it prevents people flying back and forth from seeing the entire Honglu Island.

Then there is a nautical chart, a chart of the Dadu Sea, which is more detailed than the "Maritime Scenery Records". Along with the map, there is also the method of refining the buoys of Huangliu Island.

After Cheng Xinzhan learned it, he looked around and saw numerous talisman lights floating in the air above the sea, connected into long lines of light, which was quite interesting.

Finally, Huang Yunying carefully handed over a mesh cage. He gave many instructions at that time.
"Don't give it to me, this is a gift that Master Xian has carefully selected for you. It is a treasure that Master Xian brought out from the forests of the Southern Wilderness. He has countless poisonous insects on his body, but this one is the most powerful.

"The old immortal said that you were taught by the Blood God, and you are an expert in playing with blood. You are also very good at poison. That's why I picked a nest of poisonous insects for you. They are called "Six-winged Snake Mosquitoes". In the Southern Wilderness, they are also called "Sick Blood Gu". They can suck human blood and spread plague. They are rare offensive treasures!"

Either way, Huang Yunying was the most favored one among Huang Laoxian. It was clearly a poisonous insect that Huang Laoxian had brought from the Southern Wilderness and then forgotten about, but in his mouth it was carefully selected.

Cheng Xinzhan didn't think much of this evil poisonous insect, but he was now in a devil's cave, where many righteous methods could not be used, and the evil methods were a little scarce. It was just the right time to use this poison temporarily while he was overseas.

Along with the cage of the poisonous insect, Cheng Xinzhan was also handed a manual on poison-making, which recorded the origin and making method of the poisonous insect.

This "six-winged snake-bodied mosquito" lives in the streams in the forests of the southern wilderness. When its six wings are folded close to its body, it looks like a small snake. It is green all over and only half an inch long. It can live underwater. Its six wings are transparent and with just a vibration, it can fly out of the water at an extremely fast speed.

The six-winged snake-bodied mosquito hides all its poisonous blood in its stomach, but it is very clean. The streams it lives in are even cleaner because all other fish and insects are eaten by the snake-bodied mosquito. So in the forests of southern Xinjiang, if there is a stream with clear water but no fish, and no birds or insects chirping around, you have to be careful, because you may have come to the nest of the snake-bodied mosquito.

This mosquito has sharp teeth and is good at sucking blood. Before it was refined into a Gu, it only took about ten breaths to suck a wild boar dry. This insect can not only suck blood, but also release poison. When it bites, it releases blood poison, and the prey's whole body of blood will seem to boil, and it will be scalded to death by its own blood.

However, although this creature is powerful, it also has natural enemies. There is a kind of frog in the southern wilderness that specializes in eating mosquitoes, so this creature has never been able to become popular.

In addition, this thing has a great weakness, which is its short lifespan. One might go through so much trouble to refine it, but within ten or eight years, all of them would die, and then it would have to be refined again, which is really troublesome. Therefore, even though there might be no natural enemies at sea, Huang Laoxian never paid attention to this insect, but threw it aside.

However, this thing was just right for Cheng Xinzhan, as he had no intention of staying on the sea for long.

The method of refining this Gu is also simple. First, you use spiritual objects of the three attributes of water, fire and wood to form a secret talisman and feed it to the insects, then lure the insects to attack and kill each other, and all the insects are refined into one Gu.

Cheng Xinzhan counted them and found that there were only twenty-four Gu in the cage sent by Huang Laoxian. All of them were skinny and bony. There must have been thousands of them when they were first brought overseas, but they were forgotten by Huang Laoxian in the past hundred years. A group of Gu worms continued to reproduce, die of old age, and eat each other in this small cage, and only these few were left.

The first step of transforming the insect into a Gu has already been completed by Huang Laoxian, and the second step is to feed it blood to make it recognize its master.

Logically speaking, this Gu has already recognized Huang Laoxian as its master. If it wants to change its master, it must be starved to the brink of death and its blood and essence must be consumed. At this time, the new owner will refine his own blood and essence into a secret talisman and feed it to the Gu, so that the Gu will recognize its master again.

The upper limit of the growth of this insect is also related to the essence and blood of the owner of the insect. The higher the realm of the owner of the insect, or the more refined the blood, the stronger the power and toxicity of the insect.

Now these poisonous insects are so hungry that only skin is left. It is the time to change their owners. Moreover, these poisonous insects devour each other, and those that survived to this day are all the best.

Cheng Xinzhan cut his finger, dripped 24 drops of blood, and formed a blood crystal talisman according to the secret method in the Gu Refining Manual. As soon as he unlocked the insect cage, the sick snakes and mosquitoes inside smelled the scent of blood and hit the insect cage like crazy.

Cheng Xinzhan was amazed that these starving poisonous insects could still be so energetic. He then injected his blood and essence into the insect cage drop by drop. The poisonous insects scrambled for the food frantically. Before Cheng Xinzhan could send all his blood and essence in, six more poisonous insects were torn apart and eaten in the process of fighting for the blood and essence.

Cheng Xinzhan had no choice but to intervene with his magic power and separate them one by one, and then he fed them the essence and blood. He took the extra six drops back into his heart. The book said that it was not necessary to feed too much for the first time, otherwise the Gu worms would be extremely hungry and would easily die from excessive drinking. After feeding three times in ten days, the Gu worms would recognize their master and could be released to fight the enemy.

----

half a month later.

Cheng Xinzhan refined the poisonous insect and pretended that it was almost time for him to heal his wounds, so he left Honglu Island and went to find Huang Yunying. After all, he didn't come to overseas to practice meditation.

He came to Jinshui Island, which was wrapped in a cloud of water vapor and he couldn't see the situation inside, so he shouted outside the island.

"Master Ying is at home, don't ask to see him."

Soon, the water vapor covering the Jinshui Island changed, forming a passage.

Cheng Xinzhan walked in and found that the scenery on Jinshui Island was beautiful and there were many servants. When he walked to the deepest part, he found a golden lake and a palace on the island in the middle of the lake.

Huang Yunying follows Huang Laosan in everything.

Cheng Xinzhan thought so in his mind and finally landed at the gate of the palace.

"Please come in, Bielu."

A voice floated from inside.

Then the door of the palace opened, and Cheng Xinzhan was a little surprised when he looked inside. It was just as magnificent and had the same groups of servants, but overall it did not look as gorgeous as Huang Laoxian's Bugui Tower.

What Huang Yunying was sitting on could hardly be called a couch, it was just a big bed, which was crowded with beautiful girls and boys. At this moment, he turned his hand and produced another exquisite couch and placed it opposite him, and then separated half of the dancers from it, and smiled and called Cheng Xinzhan to come forward and sit down.

Cheng Xinzhan frowned as he approached, and smelled a sultry aroma. He sat on the bed, but raised his hand to stop the women from coming up to him, and looked at Huang Yunying and said,

"Master Ying, I can't say anything about the old immortal. Why are you like this? Are you trying to imitate me? I don't think this is a good idea." The woman on the couch changed her expression and became silent, but Huang Yunying kept smiling.
"Don't be wrong, Lu. I'm not imitating Master Xian. Master Xian's Bugui Tower was built for me. All the beauties in Master Xian's Tower were selected for me."

Cheng Xinzhan became even more unhappy when he heard this.

"Why is Master Ying so self-degrading? You and I are both in the second realm, and it is the time to fight for the division of Yin. How can we spend our time on pleasure? This is short-sighted. If the Yuanzhu is not formed, how many days can we be happy? How can we know what true happiness and freedom are?"

Huang Yunying smiled bitterly and was about to explain, but then he heard Cheng Xinzhan continue,
"Thinking of my former master, the Blood God Sect, they also worked hard and practiced desperately before conquering West Kunlun. Only then did they succeed in conquering West Kunlun. But after occupying the mountain, many people changed, becoming content with pleasure and scheming against each other. My damn master was one of them. That's why I left the mountain in anger."

Cheng Xinzhan's voice became louder and louder.
"I thought the demon sect on land was like this, but the vast sea might be different. I didn't expect that the old immortal was like this, and Master Ying was like this too. Hey! If that's the case, why don't I leave and go find the real demon?"

Cheng Xinzhan was about to stand up and leave, but Huang Yunying quickly got down from the couch to stop him, and then pushed Cheng Xinzhan back onto the couch. He then ordered the servants to leave, and when there was no one in the hall, he looked at Cheng Xinzhan, and couldn't help laughing.
Now he was really relieved. Yes, he was indeed a real demon, a real demon who was ignorant of worldly affairs and devoted himself to cultivation. In this way, even if the old immortal died in the demonic calamity and he took the position of the master of Huangliu Island, he would dare to use Fengbielu with confidence.

Cheng Xinzhan frowned, "What are you laughing at, Master Ying?"

Huang Yunying then smiled and said,
"My surname is Huang too. When there are outsiders around, I call the old immortal Immortal Master. When there is no one around, I call him foster father. When we are at sea in the future, the Immortal Master will be my dear master. How could I harm the old immortal? As for me, I followed the Immortal Master to flee Baiman Mountain without hesitation and came to the sea after escaping from death. How could I be content with enjoying myself?"

Cheng Xinzhan was puzzled when he heard this, "Why?"

Huang Yunying took a deep look at Cheng Xinzhan and said, "If Bie Lu hadn't suddenly come to my house and said these words today, I wouldn't have told Bie Lu what I'm saying below. Bie Lu just needs to listen to it and don't spread it to others."

However, Cheng Xinzhan swore immediately,
"If I leak what Master Ying said to me today, I will never be able to make a Yuanzhu in this life, and my path to the devil will be bumpy!"

Huang Yunying's expression immediately changed, "My dear brother, there is no need to swear an oath, no need to swear an oath!"

He heard clearly that in this oath, no one mentioned the pseudonym, but only mentioned his own name, which showed his sincerity and earnestness!
"Brother, that's right. There are two reasons. Let me explain in detail. First, the magic skills of Baiman Mountain and I were originally practiced by Xianye. It was also the magic skills that I taught my disciples on Huangliu Island. In addition, there is the demon cultivation magic skills that the Crocodile King passed on to me. But in fact, Xianye also obtained a secret technique before leaving the land."

"Secret technique?"

Cheng Xinzhan echoed.

Huang Yunying smiled and nodded.
"It is a secret technique for collecting and replenishing energy. This secret technique is even more advanced than the magic technique that Immortal Master practiced in the past. Immortal Master found it in an ancient site, but he has been hiding it on land and has not practiced it. One reason is that Emei was keeping a close eye on him at that time, so he did not dare to go out to collect and replenish energy. More importantly, he was afraid that the Green Robe Patriarch would see the clues and snatch the secret technique away.

"Before I defected to the sea, Master Xian called together his trusted disciples and asked if anyone was willing to go with him. I was the only one. I was the youngest disciple at the time, and my realm was the lowest. But I chose to follow Master without hesitation. So Master Xian killed all the other brothers and only took me with him. After we arrived at the sea, he taught me this secret technique."

Cheng Xinzhan nodded and said, "I see."

Huang Yunying had kept this secret in his heart for a long time. He was probably too depressed to hold it in. He was very excited at the moment and continued,
"Only when we got to the sea did we realize that this is really a great place to practice the art of collecting and replenishing! Mermaids, snake demons, clam girls and shellfish spirits are all here to be taken at will, hahaha. Although collecting and replenishing these female demons is probably not as nourishing as collecting and replenishing from humans, the advantage here is that there are more of them, and there is no need to worry about being killed by the Taoist priest Bald Donkey who is slaying demons one day!"

Huang Yunying laughed, "After arriving at the sea, my master and I went everywhere to collect essences. Our master's cultivation level was immediately raised from the first level of Yuanzhu to the second level, and I also went from the first level of minor cultivation to the second level. However, at this time, we also realized that kidnapping people everywhere was not a long-term solution. We wanted to find a place to settle down, so we surrendered to the Crocodile King and occupied this Huangliu Island.

"The Dadu Sea is a treasure land. To the south is the Kingdom of Mermaids, to the east is the Snake Cave, and to the west is the Shell Reef. They are all rich in female spirits and female demons. We, the master and the apprentice, don't have to go around robbing them. We just need to negotiate with those small leaders. We will send Lingyu Grass Fruit, and they will send female spirits and female demons. It's a mutual agreement. We don't have to be as rough as before. Hey, we often take the essence of these demons to death without paying attention.

"Besides, we were born on land and had a narrow vision. It was only when we arrived at the sea that we realized that not only the clam girls and shellfish spirits, but also the mermaid boys and snake boys were very pretty. Now that we have collected their primordial yang and true yin, we can later reward these slaves or kill them as blood food, and no one will say a word against it. Haha, this is unthinkable on land."

Huang Yunying spoke very complacently. Cheng Xinzhan had a look of sudden enlightenment on his face, but he was already filled with rage in his heart.

Demonic! Beastly! They all deserve to be killed!

"My dear brother, you are not an outsider now. If you also want to practice the method of collecting and replenishing, I can go to the old immortal to ask for your help and accept you as my disciple. How do you think?"

Cheng Xinzhan shook his head repeatedly, "Master Xian's method of collecting and replenishing energy may be a good one, but it is different from Lu's magic path, which involves killing, fighting, and seizing, so it's better to forget it."

Huang Yunying was even more satisfied after hearing this. He pretended to be regretful and said,

"Then follow my brother. If you change your mind in the future, come back to me. I just said so much, which is the most important reason. Another reason for building a tall building and raising slaves is to confuse the other three leaders."

"Appreciate further details."

"This Big Belly Sea Crocodile King has four leaders under his command, namely, Uncle Black, Aunt Hong, Uncle San, and Uncle Qing. The real form of Uncle Qing is a green python, and Aunt Hong is a rosy bat.

"Uncle Black is the most mysterious. He has followed the Crocodile King for a long time. On weekdays, when the Crocodile King sleeps, it is Uncle Black who manages the sea area. It is said that Uncle Black also came from land, but no one knows whether Uncle Black is a human or a monster.

“So, except for a black man whose background is unknown, all the people here, including our master, the Crocodile King, are demon cultivators. Only our Huangliu Island accepts demons of human origin. Once their strength grows quickly, they will inevitably arouse suspicion. So over the years, our master and disciple pretended to enjoy themselves, but in fact, we were walking on thin ice!”

Huang Yunying sighed. He had been holding these words in for a long time and now he wanted to let them out.

Xian Ye was right. They have been pretending to enjoy themselves over the years and have been giving in to the other three leaders again and again. As a result, they have raised a group of dogs that can only wag their tails. But they have to raise a wolf. If they don't reveal anything now, the wolf will either become a dog or run away.

"Then don't blame Master Xian and Master Ying wrongly."

Cheng Xinzhan said.

Huang Yunying waved his hand.

"Brother, why are you still calling me Master Ying? Just call me Brother. By the way, you came here to listen to my rambling. I don't know what you are here for?"

Cheng Xinzhan smiled bitterly.
"Brother has the art of collecting and replenishing Yin and Yang, so naturally he doesn't worry about practicing. Lu Xinji Yuanzhu wants to ask about the matter of the sea evil spirit. I hope brother can point out a way."
