I Only Want to Lie Flat But Am Forced to Cultivate Immortality-Chapter 214 - 126: Altar, Fetal Obscurity

Heaven Concealing Skill, a forbidden technique that involves replacement and deception, concealing from heaven and earth.

The lifespan of a person, wealth, poverty, life, and death - all are preordained. Regardless of the myriad manifestations and diverse phenomena in the world, everything is unable to escape the prying eyes of destiny, which then allows those with intent to glimpse into and predict them.

Although destiny cannot be evaded, it can be concealed and obscured.

The Heaven Concealing Skill is precisely such a magical technique.

"The breath of all things gathers upon me, the shape of all things borrows from me. The wind hides in the clouds, the clouds hide the rain, obscuring the heavens and covering the sun, a drop of water transforms into a thousand streams..." Xu Qing plucked a hair from his wolf hair brush as a spellcasting material, reciting the incantation. In the next moment, his origins, past, and future transformed into another form.

At this moment, Xu Qing’s true nature became obscure and inscrutable, an existence that could not be named or divined.

Even if someone well-versed in the principles of divination tries to calculate, they would at most find that there is a tailless yellow weasel named Xu Qing on Yellow Stripe Mountain.

But the Heaven Concealing Skill doesn’t end here; the wolf hair of the yellow hound is merely the first barrier to obscure destiny.

At best, it can only be considered one of the many shapes in the form of all things.

As long as Xu Qing collects more spellcasting materials in the future, he can have more avatars to further conceal himself.

Apart from these functions, it can also buy him more time to cope with the tribulations he will face in the future.

That is to say, as long as he does not reveal abilities beyond what can be detected by destiny, the heavens will merely regard him as one of the countless ordinary beings.

For Xu Qing, a zombie, these benefits are undoubtedly a great boon, like giving an umbrella on a rainy day or charcoal in the snow!

As the Sect Leader of Cat Immortal Hall and the corpse shepherd of the Funeral Shop, Xu Qing inevitably comes into contact with all sorts of people, some of whom might be masters of divination.

If one day, by chance, someone whimsically tries to divine and figures out that he is a dead zombie, it would undoubtedly lead to a series of troublesome events.

Now with this Heaven Concealing Skill, his zombie identity has an additional layer of protection, allowing him to walk boldly on the streets in the future, no longer needing to avoid the divination masters who like to scrutinize passersby from their stalls.

Receiving a reward from the heavens, and such a forbidden technique that disregards levels and can obscure everyone’s view, Xu Qing was indescribably delighted.

Looking at the other two rewards, the first being the upper-grade ground level Yin Pupil Technique, it was an advanced version of the Qi Observation Skill, allowing one to see through illusions and peek into the realms of Nine Netherworld, sensing the patterns of destiny after opening the Yin Pupils.

Xu Qing praised in admiration, as the Yin Pupil complemented the Heaven Concealing Skill well, one used for obscuring and the other for peeking. However, he wondered if someone with the Yin Pupils could see through his Heaven Concealing Skill.

But thinking about the vast gap between heaven and earth levels, he knew that even if someone possessed heavenly Yin Pupils, they wouldn’t be able to see through his origins.

Nearing the ruins, Xuan Yu widened her eyes in astonishment while looking at Xu Qing.

At this moment, Xu Qing’s eyes seemed to have been injected with thick ink, the black and white of his eyeballs instantly turning pitch black like ink. freёnovelkiss-com

As if sensing Xuan Yu’s gaze, Xu Qing suddenly shifted his sight onto her.

Eight vigorous life shadows emerged from the black cat, and Xu Qing saw the true nature of the Nine-Life Profound Cat. Xuan Yu had not lied to him; she had indeed lost one of her lives before.

On the spot, the black cat’s back bristled like needles standing up involuntarily.

Xu Qing’s gaze was unabashed, even ruder than a rascal eyeing virtuous women in the street!

Xuan Yu felt that all her secrets were completely laid bare before him.

"Xu Qing!" The girl’s sharp voice suddenly rang out, calling Xu Qing by his name for the first time.

Xu Qing, who was half-focused on examining Xuan Yu, immediately snapped back to his senses.

The inky color faded, and Xu Qing sighed helplessly at the cat puffed up on the wall.

Forget it, after this matter is settled, I’ll buy her a fish at the pier to cheer her up.

After testing the Yin Pupils, Xu Qing turned his attention to the Medicated Corpse Nurturing Technique.

He had already seen this technique in the memory of the Witch earlier; it was an alternative corpse refining method.

The Medicated Corpse Technique was not of much use to Xu Qing, its only effect might be to increase his experience in corpse nurturing and refining. Aside from ancient sects like Yin Corpse Sect, there probably was no one in the world who knew more about corpses than he did.

"Yin Corpse Sect..."

Xu Qing’s mind stirred. The Yin Corpse Sect was known for collecting, shepherding, refining, and controlling corpses. In such a sect, would the bodies of its disciples and elders be buried and decayed like ordinary people?

If they weren’t buried, but rather cultivated themselves as medicinal corpses like the Witch in front of him, how many corpses would the long-standing Yin Corpse Sect have accumulated over thousands of years?

In terms of preserving corpses, the Yin Corpse Sect was undoubtedly an expert on the inside!

The thought that arose in his mind was quickly suppressed by Xu Qing.

Such ancient sects possess deep foundations, and there might be Golden Armored Corpses or even higher-level corpse soldiers guarding the sect. Although he wasn’t afraid of those zombies, apart from zombies, there were still living cultivators guarding the sect.

If he wanted to dig up their ancestral graves, he would need their permission first!

Fine, it’s better to stay safe and guard his own shop, collecting corpses.

Recalling the dream he had when he first acquired the Dream Creation Skill, Xu Qing instantly became clear-headed again.

A person shouldn’t be too greedy, and the same goes for a zombie.

If a corpse is lost, it can be collected again. But if one is too eager for quick success, they might end up in a miserable state like the Witch before him.
