Chapter 39: A Stable Life

"Woof, woof~"

Wangcai, who was running around in the mountain forest, noticed the raging flames that suddenly rose in the surroundings and barked incessantly.

However, soon these flames were controlled by an invisible force and were forcibly withdrawn one after another. At the same time, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, wearing a suit of battle armor, stood on the top of the mountain holding the Ruyi Golden Cudgel.

The flames in that fire basin made the power of the ghost fire greatly enhanced, so much so that even Lin Feng felt it was not easy to control.

If it were not restrained, the ghost fire filling the sky alone would instantly shroud the surrounding several mountain peaks, and the living things inside would be impossible to escape from the ghost fire alive.

This was just one kind of change. Lin Feng raised his hand, and the hair on the Great Sage Equaling Heaven's body fell off slowly. This was a new ability generated after fusing the power of the paper-burning ghost.

These hairs were essentially the paper money produced by the paper-burning ghost, but now they had become a means for the Great Sage Equaling Heaven.

As these hairs landed, they immediately began to change, turning into clones of the Great Sage Equaling Heaven one after another.

However, the strength of these clones was not strong, and one could faintly see the characteristics of the tattooed evil ghosts on them.

"The paper money of the paper-burning ghost mainly has two functions: the first is to make the power of the ghost fire greater, and the second is to forcibly seal the ghostly power."

"But in my hands, it has combined with the Hundred Ghost Tattoos, turning into my incarnations..."

Lin Feng looked at the incarnations looking around one after another and felt a bit speechless. The most powerful part of the Xi Gui lay in imitating the object it wanted to play.

Now, it had even simulated the ability of the Great Sage Equaling Heaven to pull out hair and turn into incarnations through the combination of various ghostly powers.

The strength of the separated incarnations was about the same as the original tattooed evil ghosts, possessing strength and the unique abilities of various evil ghosts. At the same time, they fused the power of the paper-burning ghost and could gather together to seal ghostly power.

It looked like a Death Talisman with combat ability, but in the final analysis, it was still an extension of the Xi Gui's power.

Finally, there was the fire basin itself. Lin Feng discovered that this thing had merged into his palm at some point.

The fire basin originally possessed the ability to forcibly gather people and things in the surroundings, and now it had turned into a special ability of "Heaven and Earth in the Palm."

The sundries in the surroundings could be directly put into it, and it wouldn't affect the things themselves.

Lin Feng tried a few times and discovered that this ability also had the effect of forcibly trapping ghosts, just with the premise that one couldn't put things inside. Otherwise, if one put a ghost inside, everything would be ruined.

After testing all the abilities, the Xi Gui gradually disappeared, and Lin Feng also had some understanding of his current strength.

He didn't know what the strength of a true "True Person" and "Ultimate Person" was like, but he thought that he was not too far away now.

"Finally, I can live a stable life!"

With such strength as a guarantee, the confidence in Lin Feng's heart had undoubtedly become much stronger.

"Woof, woof~"

Wangcai barked twice not far from Lin Feng, looking like it wanted to approach but didn't dare. The sight of Lin Feng turning into the Great Sage Equaling Heaven just now had scared Wangcai into peeing.

"Haha, let's go, let's go back and boil some blood-nourishing and bone-strengthening herbs for you!"

Lin Feng was amused by its appearance, then directly tidied up the things beside him and hurried down the mountain with them.

Returning to the wooden house of the gravekeeper, Lin Feng took out the dried herbs and mountain treasures to start preparing medicine and boiling them.

Then he produced a large bowl of medicinal juice. This was good stuff.

It was a pity that the taste was bitter and the smell was unpleasant. Wangcai took a look at it and wanted to run.

Unfortunately, it was then grabbed by Lin Feng and forcibly poured into its mouth. To prevent the little guy from spitting it out, Lin Feng immediately used internal energy to comb its meridians and activate its blood and energy.

Soon, Wangcai, who couldn't struggle, accepted its fate. After Lin Feng finished this set of actions, Wangcai became dizzy again.

"Why are you pouring medicine into it?"

Old Quezi on the side found it strange, but only after Lin Feng finished his work did he ask.

"This puppy's physique is too weak, I'm trying to see if I can raise it to be stronger!"

Lin Feng found it hard to say that he was actually conducting an experiment, so he just made up an excuse.

"Sigh, you kid have many ideas, but I have never seen anyone raise a dog like this..."

After saying this, Old Quezi didn't care about these things anymore and continued to lean against the wall of the small courtyard to bask in the sun.

Lin Feng smiled and continued to carry the firewood knife to start making furniture. Now he had made a set of quite good tables and chairs in the house, which were much more comfortable than those broken things before.

Now Lin Feng planned to make a more comfortable wooden bed. The short couch in the house was not only hard on the back but also small.

Relying on his current skills and means, he didn't need any tools; the firewood knife in his hand was already enough.

This was also the reason why Lin Feng liked to obtain all kinds of crafts. Having these crafts by his side could not only be used as a skill to make money and support his family, but also improve his life and make all kinds of things he needed.

Carpentry skills, stonemasonry skills, and the ghost-tattooing skills he obtained. Speaking of which, Lin Feng had already mastered three kinds of skills.

It was just that besides the carpentry ability, he hadn't tried the other two skills. On one hand, it was inconvenient, and on the other hand, he found it troublesome.

Stonemasonry skills included four key steps: mountain opening and stone mining, material selection and shape taking, carving and polishing, and repair and combination.

Each step was much more complicated than carpentry work, and the site requirements were also larger. Lin Feng didn't have the time to do these things for the time being.

And the ghost-tattooing skills included steps such as material collection, ink making, pattern selection, and tattooing. It looked almost the same as ordinary tattooing.

But in reality, every step was quite cumbersome. Collecting various ghost material to make ink was just the first step. In addition, one needed to prepare a special tattoo needle. Only after the materials were prepared could one perform the tattooing.

Tattooing was not something that could be done casually. People whose physique was not strong enough simply couldn't withstand the terrifying erosive power of ghostly materials.

Even people with strong bodies needed to repeat many times to complete the tattoo, gradually completing it and gradually adapting.

Only in this way could a person gradually master part of the ghostly power.

Moreover, the tattooed evil ghosts after tattooing would also gradually devour the blood and energy of the living person as time went on, leading to recovery.

In short, this was not something that could be successful casually.

The reason why Lin Feng was willing to use internal energy to comb Wangcai's meridians and cleanse its marrow was also for this.

After Wangcai was strong enough, he would use it as the first tattoo object, letting this dog gradually possess ghostly power!

If it could be successful on a dog, then there would be no problem on a person.

Lin Feng chopped wood to make the shape of the wooden material he wanted, while silently pondering in his mind how to improve the method of ghost tattooing.

The ghost tattooing method from the Tattoo Sect was still full of risks in his view. If the risks could be reduced, that would be even better.

However, he was, after all, an outsider to the inheritance. The difficulty of wanting to accomplish this kind of thing could be imagined. ===== CHAPTER 40 =====
