Chapter 850: Eighteenth Level (1)
Editor: Atlas Studios
In the vast and boundless hell, time passed quickly.
In the Tongue Extraction Hell, nothing seemed to have changed. However, there was an additional figure sitting cross-legged beside the staircase that connected up and down.
After an unknown period of time, Jiang Li, who was sitting upright in the Tongue Extraction Hell, opened his eyes.
It was pitch-black in front of him.
Something seemed to block his vision.
No, his entire body was covered by a layer of something.
He casually stretched and twisted his body.
His entire body emitted cracking sounds.
On the surface of the clay clone, a layer of gray stone shell cracked and slid down.
That was because too much time had passed.
The thick layer of dust that landed on his body gradually formed a layer of rock because of the power of time. Only then did a layer of stone shell appear on his surface.
The stone shell shattered and shook off piece by piece, revealing the figure of the clay person clone inside.
At this moment, the clone’s aura was restrained like a mortal, but his true cultivation had more than doubled and had already reached the current limit.
He had more than 50% of the main body’s strength and reached nearly 60%.
The other powers came from the status panel. The clone could only borrow them so cultivation alone could not catch up no matter what.
His right hand maintained the posture of taking it out and pressed on another humanoid body wrapped in a stone shell.
The ordinary clay figurine from before could no longer withstand the torture and dissipated. The one in front of him could naturally only be a ghost that already had a physical body.
At that time, after he planned to use the Dream Divine Kingdom to brainwash the Infinite Dao Ghost, he tried and discovered that this matter was indeed feasible.
However, there was still some difficulty and trouble.
This magical spiritual body with the indestructible characteristic seemed to have stopped in this space for too long.
The soul’s reaction to all the stimulation of the outside world was very slow.
Just like a child who learned how to speak, if you taught him how to speak, he would slowly learn.
However, the Infinite Dao Ghost was the stupidest kind. He needed repeated lessons to learn something.
This made Jiang Li’s brainwashing process a little ridiculously slow, making people feel discouraged.
However, due to the indestructible characteristic, once this thing became his enemy, it would be the most troublesome type.
Therefore, no matter what, Jiang Li had to firmly hold it in his hand.
It did not matter if it took longer. In any case, there was no lack of time here. The most important thing was to be safe and stable.
The current Human Emperor could only endure it and enter the longest seclusion in history.
However, in a certain sense, this kind of slowness was considered a good personality.
This was because after staying in hell for countless years, the patience of the Infinite Dao Ghost was extremely good! His mind was extremely calm!
There was no such thing as letting his imagination run wild in his mind.
He could focus on one thing without any distractions and not feel bored at all.
With such a personality, it was extremely advantageous when cultivating cultivation methods.
Jiang Li was slightly envious of this. He used the Infinite Dao Ghost as his target. After spending some time, he successfully comprehended a skill called the [Infinite Dao Heart].
After activating it, one could abandon all distracting thoughts and focus on cultivating, not noticing the changes in time.
It was precisely with the help of the Infinite Dao Heart that Jiang Li could last for such a long time in seclusion.
After that, Jiang Li brainwashed the Indestructible Spirit Body while teaching him cultivation methods and letting him cultivate on his own.
What he taught the Infinite Dao Ghost was a ghost cultivation method called the “Ninth-Grade Ghost Immortal Art”.
The source was also the Nine Nether Wood, but it was slightly inferior. It was a subsidiary cultivation method of the Nine Nether Dao Scripture.
The Spiritual Root of Heaven and Earth, the Nine Nether Wood, had the nature to control puppets to cultivate and provide energy to the mother.
To a large extent, Jiang Li relied on this to establish the current huge Fengdu Ghost City.
This Immortal Art was a cultivation method that simulated the formation of the Nine Nether Earth Fruit for the unlucky spiritual root puppets.
Unfortunately, the Nine Nether Branch did not inherit this cultivation method.
Jiang Li had only comprehended it after fusing with the Nine Nether Wood’s broken root.
In terms of brilliance, it was definitely an immortal-level cultivation method.
Following the Nine Nether Earth Fruit, he could also cultivate powerful Nine Nether spiritual qi, and the capacity of the spiritual qi far exceeded his peers.
He could even seize the cultivation of others, and his cultivation speed was extraordinary.
In terms of cultivation speed, it was comparable to high-grade or even top-grade spiritual roots.
Coupled with his ability to seize cultivation, his progress was even faster.
It was very suitable for the current Infinite Dao Ghost.
However, unlike ordinary cultivation methods, the foundation of this Ninth-Grade Ghost Immortal Art was not a natural spiritual root, but a false spiritual root that grew after consuming the Nine Nether Earth Fruit.
At the same time, he had to implant the will of a cultivator of the Nine Nether Dao Scripture into his soul and use it as the core to cultivate.
Jiang Li had always been generous when facing his own people. He decisively gave out a Nine Nether Earth Fruit and a parallel mind.
There was another benefit to this. No matter how strong he became in the end, he was only a fruit on the tree. As the master, Jiang Li could strip away his strength at any time as long as he was willing.
Only then could he feel slightly at ease with this indestructible ghost.
After the Infinite Dao Ghost could cultivate on its own and did not need help, Jiang Li started his own cultivation.
To his disappointment, the time on his status panel was not affected by the flow of time in the 18th level.
