My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 314: Followers of the Secret-Keeping Immortal (14)

The Great Spiritual Officer gave Jiang Xinghuo some information about the Spiritual Officer, but there was a prerequisite for him to gain benefits from it, and that was he must master the power and authority of the law of disaster.

No wonder the game text says that how much benefit you can get depends entirely on your own luck.

If you don't have the law of disaster, even if you know the news, you won't be able to obtain relevant clues.

Jiang Xinghuo looked at the text message and then at the calendar on the wall. The Mid-Autumn Festival had just passed and there were still more than twenty days until the fifteenth of next month. He could only put this task clue on hold for the time being and wait until September fifteenth.

The matter at the Zhengui Temple was resolved, and there was no related follow-up text. Jiang Xinghuo did not delay any further, but teleported back to Guandong City to count the remaining harvest.

"The Drum of Woe (Excellent Item), an object handed down from ancient times. When struck, the sound will spread ten miles away, and there is a chance that it will attract nearby monsters and demons."

Jiang Xinghuo took a look and found that the function and effect were similar to the Laughing Brazier, both of which were special props used to attract monsters.

"Imitation of Dragon Head Guillotine (consumable item), created by the Taoist Master Shen Ji Bai Lian, a special item forged from an imitation of the Dragon Head Guillotine, which has a fatal effect on dragon-like monsters and demons, regardless of their level of cultivation or status, it can kill them all."

Jiang Xinghuo's eyes lit up, this effect looked very abnormal, it was completely a weapon of causality. As long as it was a dragon-like monster, no matter how high your cultivation was or what your identity was, you could be beheaded with one strike.

But this thing is a disposable prop and it will be gone after use. Jiang Xinghuo wanted to use Tathagata Zang to analyze the forging formula of this dragon-headed guillotine, but he failed.

pity……

Jiang Xinghuo showed a look of regret, but then he thought, such a heaven-defying thing could not be widely circulated in the game, otherwise those dragon-like monsters would have been killed long ago.

Jiang Xinghuo put the Dragon Head Guillotine into his magic bag. He remembered the materials needed to cast the Dharma image, among which was the reverse scale of the Angry River Disaster Dragon. He was worried that he would not be able to deal with a monster of that level, but now he had the Dragon Head Guillotine, he no longer had to worry about that.

Now, as long as we find clues to the whereabouts of the disaster dragon, we can go over and kill it directly.

Jiang Xinghuo put away the things and looked at the remaining things.

"The gavel (common prop), peach wood can scare the soul, willow wood can fight ghosts, and the wake-up wood carved from thunder-struck peach wood can scare the soul and calm ghosts."

"Ghost Beating Whip (Ordinary Item), a whip woven from fine willows in March after the Waking of Insects. It can beat ghosts three inches shorter and can knock away a hundred years of evil spirits."

Jiang Xinghuo looked at the two props and hung them directly on the niche, and the three hundred incense sticks were quickly deposited into the account.

Finally, the only thing left was the invitation from the City Lord’s Mansion.

"Invitation from the City Lord's Mansion (special item), an invitation letter issued by the City Lord of Guandong City. With this invitation, you can enter and leave the City Lord's Mansion at will without any restrictions."

"Do you want to go to the City Lord's Mansion to explore?"

Jiang Xinghuo understood that this invitation was equivalent to the key to unlock a new map. It was probably that the iron-faced justice from the Ghost Hall went to the City Lord's Mansion to attend a banquet, so he took advantage of the opportunity.

Now that I have obtained this item, I might as well go to the City Lord's Mansion and see if I can get anything in return.

"You choose to go to the City Lord's Mansion."

"You have arrived at the City Lord's Mansion."

"You hand the invitation card to the guard. The guard at the door recognizes the card but not the person. After confirming that there is no problem with the invitation card, he will let you into the City Lord's Mansion."

"You walked into the City Lord's Mansion and came to the banquet hall in the backyard. You found that the City Lord was entertaining guests. Do you want to go over and listen?"

"You chose to eavesdrop through the wall, but you didn't dare to get too close. You could only hide under a window a little further away and hear a few words." "The guests that the city lord invited to the banquet today, in addition to the iron-faced justice, there is also an old monk and a man from Guandong who collects pools."

"The Lord of Guandong City invited them here because a mourning hall was recently discovered in Guandong, and he wanted Chi Ren and the old monk to help deal with it."

"During the banquet, the city lord took out the mourning hall and handed it to the pond collector and the old monk. Do you want to break in now and take the mourning hall away before everyone can react?"

Jiang Xinghuo raised his eyebrows, thinking that the game text had set a trap for him again. How could he defeat so many people in the room? He might not only fail to get the items, but also get himself into trouble.

"You didn't choose to act rashly. I have to say that you are a very rational person and you were not blinded by greed."

"But just when you wanted to leave, you accidentally kicked over the flower pot next to you, alarming several people in the room."

Jiang Xinghuo was speechless, thinking that this was a bit old, and that this was how it was played in those TV dramas, but he didn't expect it to happen to him today.

"You didn't have time to think about it. Since you had already alerted the people in the house, you simply rushed in and tried to seize the mourning hall by force. However, you didn't expect to be seriously injured by the old monk."

"Your internal organs have been shattered, and your vitality is gradually draining away from your body. You are dead."

Died again!!

Jiang Xinghuo scratched his head, thinking that it would be better if he stopped here today. He had died so many times that he was a little numb.

However, just when Jiang Xinghuo was about to quit the game, he saw that the game text had new changes.

"You awakened at the shrine in Kanto Castle."

"You found a line of bloody words on your body. It seems that some kind of power is condensed from the blood flowing from your body."

"Tathagata's talent is triggered."

"You have gained insight into the meaning and secrets of this line of characters through your innate ability as Tathagatagarbha."

"You have obtained the distress message from the soul of the secret keeper."

"It was trapped in the funeral shrine and sensed your presence, so it used its last bit of strength to leave clues for help on you."

"Of course, whether you want to take the risk of robbing the mourning hall and releasing the souls imprisoned inside depends entirely on your own wishes."

"The Secret Keepers are a mysterious race in the secular world. They are all believers of the Secret Keeper Immortal, guarding all the secrets of the secular world."

"If you can rescue the soul of the secret keeper, you may be able to gain his recognition and obtain some unknown worldly secrets."

The secret-keeping immortal?

Through his previous gaming experience, Jiang Xinghuo discovered that those whose titles were followed by the suffix "immortal" were almost all powerful figures from ancient times in the secular world.

Most of them exist in the historical settings of the game, and it is rare to see their real bodies, but you can find the miracles and relics they left behind.

For example, the Great Fission Immortal, the Great Fusion Immortal, the Secret Keeper Immortal, the Miraculous Rejuvenator Immortal, the Immortal King of Creating Humans from Earth...

And now there is one more immortal who keeps the secret.
