Water elemental became a god, ultimately becoming the master of heaven, earth, mountains, and rivers

Chapter 84 Divine Might and Awe-inspiring Power: A New Transformation in the Divinity of Grassroots!

Chen Shunan's voice was calm, but it was muffled by the wind in the night and could not be heard clearly.

But for some reason, what fell into Jinlin's ears at this moment was like an ancient call, coming from the Yuan and Xiang rivers of the Chu region in the Yunmeng Great Swamp, from that vague and unknowable mysterious past.

That was God's will, God's voice.

Even the water in the tank seemed to come alive, possessing its own will, vibrating slightly and responding.

The golden-scaled fish jerked awake immediately.

An unprecedented fear and awe surged within it, its mind went blank, and it was almost scared out of its wits.

But its body was extremely obedient. The moment the words "turn back" were uttered, a flash of golden light appeared, and the grass carp in the tank was gone, replaced by a golden-scaled catfish with a golden flower on its head.

Chen Shunan stretched out his finger and dipped it into the water.

The golden-scaled catfish immediately swam over, swimming and circling beside Chen Shunan's finger with awe, even as if on a pilgrimage.

The golden-scaled catfish didn't understand what had happened; it only knew that Chen Shunan now seemed to have truly become a supreme god.

It had no courage to resist or refuse Chen Shunan's orders.

"Change back."

Whoosh!
Grass carp are swimming.

"Change back to normal."

Whoosh!
A golden light suddenly appeared.

"Change again."

grass carp.

"Change again!"

goldfish.

Finally, the golden-scaled catfish couldn't transform anymore. After spitting out a string of bubbles, it was exhausted and passed out, its scales wrinkled and disheveled, and its eyes full of weariness.

Chen Shunan then withdrew his finger with satisfaction.

The characteristic of 'being close to aquatic larks' not only enhances its range and perception, but also increases it from the initial ten zhang to more than twenty zhang.

It also carries the majesty of the grass god, which can make the water flow in harmony and all the spirits revere it.

His divine might is awe-inspiring!

Chen Shunan nodded in satisfaction.

"That silver fish can probably no longer hide... Moreover, with such divinity, I can go anywhere in Sakano Tsudo!"

"Although it can't be said to rule over the waters, its ability to breathe underwater has probably made a qualitative leap. It can also activate its divinity underwater. Any kind of spirit fish or treasure fish... once I discover it, it won't be able to escape!"

"When Mr. Chen makes a move, it's never a missed opportunity!"

Digest your desires, become familiar with divinity, and suppress your turbulent emotions.

Chen Shunan sat on a wooden stump and smoked two rolls of Guanzhong cigarettes.

Only then did he swallow a drop of the Five-Ring Water and begin his daily practice.

The five rounds of water melted instantly upon entering his mouth, like drinking sweet dew, transforming into a refreshing sensation that surged into Chen Shunan's mind.

Instantly, the throbbing pain in my temples was relieved.

As he contemplated the Six Scenes Flowing Diagram, a sense of coolness spread, and the void in Chen Shun'an's mind after beheading the thief was rapidly filled and enhanced.

Quality is refined, quantity is expanded.

Chen Shunan's will, or rather his mental strength, was rapidly increasing.

"A drop of water from the Five Wheels can sustain one's practice for about three days."

Chen Shunan silently estimated the water consumption of the five rounds.

Chen Shunan had more than twenty drops on his body, all of which he had painstakingly accumulated bit by bit!
"With these resources, I can sustain my cultivation for two months. Although I lack the Chaos Elixir, it is still more common than the Nourishing Elixir."

You can still buy them at high prices in the county's shops or on the black market, and the old lady also gave me a few.

In other words, Chen Shunan can proceed smoothly for the next two months and enter a stable period of rapid improvement in his strength.

The wishes garnered from pushing the water cart daily are fewer than those from manifesting miracles in public.

But its advantage lies in its stability and security; it progresses step by step, clearly and steadily, though it still takes time.

Furthermore, since he offered Zhao Guangxi's advice on vying for the position of head of the old roadblock, Zhao Dongjia is probably already taking action, and it will take time for the results to unfold.

For Chen Shunan, stability is the most important thing right now.

and so……

"I have never been fond of fighting, but I am fond of resolving conflicts... If I cannot resolve a conflict, then I will die, Zheng Shicheng."

A fierce glint flashed in Chen Shunan's eyes.

With Zheng Shicheng dead, Furong Gao Huo lost its leader, and the Guolu Society could be considered to have achieved its goal.

The rest are just minor squabbles, harmless and insignificant.

Wuqing County will then return to its former peace and tranquility.

……

Sakano Tsuto, black market.

It was the hour of Yin (3-5 AM), and along the banks of the two forks of the river, the dim, flickering wicks of reed lamps illuminated the stalls displaying all sorts of strange and unusual goods.

In a dilapidated prefabricated house, a hunched and furtive figure removed the already crooked door panel and used it as a stall to display goods.

With a flick of his wrist, various bottles and jars of wild herbs appeared on the door panel.

The person had two square plasters pasted on their forehead, and one of the plasters was a waxy yellow color, clearly indicating that they were wearing a human skin mask.

"Hey, do you still have any Yinqian Cui? I haven't had any for two days, I'm craving it so bad..."

A sudden gust of wind swept in.

A tall, burly man, his face completely covered, hurriedly slipped into the dilapidated prefab house.

Upon seeing the newcomer, a glint of greed flashed in Yin Qian Cui's eyes, and he said,
"Of course we have it, top-quality stuff! But the price will be 50% higher!"

"Why has the price gone up again? I just sold two houses; if I sell another one, I'll be homeless!"

"Supplies are scarce, the goods from above are delayed, you're lucky to get any at all... Do you want to buy or not? Don't you have a wife and children?"

"Don't even think about taking advantage of my wife and children! How could I possibly sell my wife and children?! What kind of person would that be?! Fine, I'll give you the deed, but give me the things right now! I need to practice martial arts immediately, I can't hold back any longer!!"

The burly man handed over the house deed with his left hand and grabbed two tin boxes with his right.

With trembling hands, he tore open the packaging, took a cigarette stick, picked out a little bit of hibiscus oil, and was about to burn it on the spot.

pat!

Suddenly, footsteps sounded outside the door. The two of them turned around sharply and looked in the same direction.

Outside, a bright, solitary moon casts a soft, pale light across the sky.

Then two figures appeared, one in front and one behind, like two cold, sharp blades, tearing through the moonlight and slowly walking in.

The former had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes; he was a young man.

The latter looked distressed and had a bitter expression; he was an old man.

The young man said, "Yinqian Cui, your affair has been exposed!"

Yin Qian Cui quickly stood up, mistaking the two for officials, and said with a fawning expression,

"But which two gentlemen are in the county government office? They look unfamiliar. I've already taken care of everything that needed to be taken care of, um... this silver is a token of my respect to them."

"The county government office?"

Upon hearing this, the young man remained expressionless and said,
"I suppose you've misunderstood. We are the Guolu Society. The reason we're spouting so much nonsense... is because you are disloyal and unjust, short-sighted, peddling money and poisoning the people like worms. You must die knowing why!"

not good!

Upon hearing the words "oil lamp," Yin Qian Cui was so frightened that his spirit rose up and he immediately fled for his life.

However, Bai Manlou had already drawn his sword. The sword light was like a wave, dreamlike and illusory, sweeping up fallen leaves and ruffling the curtains, making people feel as if they could see the moonlight pouring into the room, illuminating the dim room.

"What a nice view……"

Yin Qian Cui's consciousness was momentarily dazed.

Then, the boundless sword light descended, brushing against my cheeks, slicing across my arms, and settling on my body...

Slices of meat flew everywhere, and in the blink of an eye, all that remained of Yin Qian Cui was a skeleton.

Throughout the entire ordeal, Yin Qian Cui remained fully conscious, experiencing the excruciating pain of being slowly sliced ​​to death.

The fact that they had seen the most beautiful scenery in the world, like a dream, made their suffering even more intense.

thump!
The headless corpse lay on the ground, blood gushing out, knocking over and soaking the wild herbs on the door panel.

Bai Manlou's gaze fell on the stiff, burly man whose cigarette skewer had rolled to the ground.

The burly man jolted suddenly, his voice sharp.
"I am General Three-Forked, a general under Chief Song of the Xixian Hotpot Gang! I just... I just went astray and was deceived by this bastard..."

Bai Manlou remained silent, his movements mirroring the sword's.

The burly man panicked and ran blindly, crashing into a wall to escape.

Xiao Qingchou sighed, flicked his wrist, and an iron pellet suddenly appeared, piercing through the big man's throat, leaving only a little blood at the throat.

The big man opened his mouth, and blood flowed out as if it were free.

He suddenly lost all his strength, fell to the ground, twitched a few times, and then remained still.

Bai Manlou was somewhat surprised: "Old Xiao, aren't you always compassionate and unwilling to kill indiscriminately?"

Xiao Qingchou said bitterly, "If I don't kill him, then you kill him. He's just someone who's been touched by the lamplight; why subject him to such cruel torture? Just give him a quick death."

The fact that these three generals managed to rise to the position of general of the pot must have been due to their past acts of bullying men and women, disregarding human life, and deceiving their superiors and subordinates.

To be killed in one blow is also a form of mercy.

Bai Manlou chuckled, then used his sword as a brush, dipping it in the blood of the corpse, and wrote several bold, menacing characters on the wall—

The murderer is Bai Manlou, from the Guolu Guild's Punishment Hall...

"Don't write about me," Xiao Qingchou cried out.

Bai Manlou stopped his sword.

Stepping out of the dilapidated shack, one finds large areas of the surrounding stalls empty. Many people have packed up their bedding and goods, jumped into the water, or run into the paths to escape for their lives.

His movements were practiced and he remained calm despite the surprise, as if he had rehearsed it countless times.

Bai Manlou ignored them.

He stood with his sword hanging down, looking up at the sky, when suddenly a thought came to his mind.

"The moonlight is so bright and beautiful tonight, is it trying to add to my charm? The heavens are truly on my side..."

Xiao Qingchou sighed and said, "It's such a pity and a tragedy that the moonlight shines on this filth."

Same scenery, different moods, yet such vastly different comments.

The two left together.

He ran around all night, killing countless people.

Anyone who sets up a scheme to defraud someone of money, or forces debtors to burn through their own pockets, shall be executed!

Anyone who adulterates cigarettes and sells counterfeit goods to deceive others into mistakenly burning lamp oil shall be executed!

Those who collude with shops to hoard and procure tuition fees shall be executed!

Anyone who is involved in any aspect of transportation, sales, receiving kickbacks, or even if they are deceived and inadvertently consume the money they have earned, is an 'innocent' person.

Regardless of right or wrong, or identity, Bai Manlou followed the list in his mind, this "death warrant," and visited each person one by one.

kill! ! !

The killings were so numerous that heads rolled everywhere.

Corpses littered the ground overnight, and the sounds of roosters crowing and dogs barking vanished.

The air was filled with a faint smell of blood.

It must be said that even a powerful outsider can suppress a local strongman.

Shuiwozi also sent Lin Shouzhou and others to the black market to try to capture Yinqian Cui, but they returned empty-handed many times because he got wind of their plans in advance and escaped.

For foreign groups, there are fewer obstacles that restrict their actions, and they don't have to worry about information leaks.

All sorts of people, from the most cult-like to the most sinister, and even outlaws from the martial arts world, are their eyes and ears.

From this night onward, the fame of the Guolu Society will resound throughout Wuqing County and even the entire capital and the martial arts world of the north!
It is so terrifying that it makes people tremble with fear!
Shaking off the blood from his sword, Bai Manlou stepped over the corpse beneath his feet, then suddenly stopped and said...
"I heard that a great hero has emerged from Shuiwozi. He snatched chestnuts from the fire and broke Huang Tao's 'Spider Silk Hundred Refinements Force' with his 'Miaoyin Three Hundred and Fifty' technique, leaving you all empty-handed. I think his name is... He Qiqiang?"

"Absurd! Nonsense!"

For some reason, upon hearing these words, Xiao Qingchou's face flushed red, veins bulged on his forehead, and he immediately became anxious.

"He's just a second-rate nobody, a water carrier, how could he have such skills! There must have been someone else that day, no, perhaps some ghost or spirit was secretly watching! That scoundrel Zhao Guangxi was just creating a false impression, pulling someone out to divert attention..."

Then came some incomprehensible phrases, such as "warfare is based on deception" and "a thief who cuts off his own body," which made Bai Manlou unable to help but laugh.

"Alright, whether it's true or not... I heard that Wanlong Duifang and Shuiwozi are still searching everywhere for us."

Bai Manlou smiled, strode forward, and leaped into the brilliant moonlight.

“In that case, let’s go ahead and do it. The next batch of people to be killed happens to be from Wanlong Mill, and oh, there are a few over at Shuiwozi too. Perfect.”

"It's a pity that Zheng Shicheng has disappeared without a trace, and is protected by that Holy Maiden. Otherwise, how could he have survived to this day?!"
