Jiang's words came out like a machine gun.
"..."
"The most crucial question is, why are you telling me that only the Demon of Departure can break through this formation? Is it because he is the supreme ruler of fire, and also the most handsome, charming, and domineering of the eight demons?"
"..."
"?"
Jiang Shinian stopped in his tracks. He could vaguely see the dark and invisible flames ahead, a mysterious flame that seemed to not exist in this world.
"who are you?"
"hehe…"
"Hehehe..."
"Gagaga jigaga jigaga jigaga jigaga jigaga..."
From within that unfathomable black stone came a strange and peculiar laugh.
"why are you laughing?"
Jiang Shinian frowned deeply.
Why does that laughter sound so familiar?
As he wondered what was happening, a dark shadow loomed over him, the deep darkness enveloping the entire forest.
"As expected of my favorite child!"
The eerie laughter emanated from the strange black stone, sending chills down one's spine.
[Event triggered, quest begins]
[Task 1]: Kneel down and call him Dad!
[Task Description]: You have encountered a mysterious yet familiar being. To some extent, you, who love friendship, might kneel down and call this being "father."
[Task Reward]: Dark Aura's Pampering!
[Task Two]: Slap the black stone away!
[Task Description]: Sometimes, a beating is a sign of affection, and scolding is a sign of love. Let's slap this nonsense away.
[Task Reward]: Appreciation of righteousness!
[Task 3]: Follow the instructions of the dark energy!
[Task Description]: You, being friendly, have decided to temporarily follow the arrangements of the dark forces.
[Mission Reward]: Rare Item - Ultimate Fire!
Jiang Shinian was immediately startled.
To his surprise, this incident directly led to the system providing him with an answer.
"This black stone is actually an incarnation of black energy!"
Jiang Shinian was filled with doubt and unease.
Both righteous energy and dark energy are part of the world's will. How can they have independent thoughts and consciousness, and even transform into a black stone to come looking for him?
The three options provided by the system actually gave him quite a few hints.
Or rather, the system had already given a warning beforehand.
The doting of the dark energy, the appreciation of the righteous energy, and the fondness of the dark energy, and so on...
The expressions in these words all seem to be explaining the same thing.
Both righteous energy and dark energy have acquired anthropomorphic thinking and consciousness; they are no longer simply heartless things that change according to the laws of the world.
"It's incredible."
Jiang Shinian was dumbfounded, but his reaction was not slow.
"This task doesn't seem to be asking me to choose the first two, so I'll choose the third one."
Jiang Shi Nian silently recited the command, and immediately, a system notification popped up.
Mission 3 has been activated.
"Why don't you speak?"
The black stone had gradually floated out of Jiang Shinian's pocket.
"Want to know who I am?"
Jiang Shinian rolled his eyes inwardly: "The Double Gun Society will provide the answer."
He coughed and said seriously, "Are you black qi?"
"Hahahaha!"
The black stone suddenly emitted a jet-black light, and a burst of black energy erupted out, swirling and coiling around the stone.
"It's a complete mess."
Jiang Shinian looked at the dark shadows at his feet, then looked up at the stone spewing black mist, and couldn't help but complain to himself.
"My child, you are my favorite."
The black stone, shrouded in dark energy, floated before Jiang Shinian's eyes.
"I have so much to tell you, but time is running out. That old man is watching us, and I can't let you take too many risks!"
"Child, remember, once the twelve talismans are back in place and you regain your freedom, remember to come here and take away the Golden Twelve Palaces and the Heavenly Bright Fire!"
"Back then, that damned sorcerer secretly placed the Qian Tian Ming Huo here to protect Ying Quan, causing me to send so many people to return empty-handed. Later, he left this world; it was that old geezer who sent him away."
The black aura seemed to have a lot to say, and it spoke at length: "Remember, child, I will always be watching you. You have done very well recently!"
"When you are resurrected, I will strengthen the power of the twelve talismans for you! But that old bastard will definitely let those little bastards find the relics of the immortal god to fight against you."
"This Fang Yingquan must not fall into their hands..."
The black mist chattered on and on, about to say something more, when suddenly it stopped.
"No, child, I have to go. That old man has become suspicious, and I can't suppress him now."
"Remember, when you are reborn, come here and take Yingquan. The ancient star beasts in the Twelve Golden Palaces will become your powerful allies!"
"Child, I'm leaving now. We'll meet again next time."
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"
“Hehehehe…”
Amidst a burst of maniacal and strange laughter, the black aura and dark light emanating from the black stone were all absorbed and returned to the stone.
Jiang Shi Nian: ......
He suddenly developed a liking for strange, creaking laughter. Could it be that he was influenced by this thing?
"Quickly put away the shadowy figure too, that old thing is coming."
The mysterious vortex around the black stone, resembling a black hole, slowly expanded, its bizarre and twisted transformations impossible to see.
A "pop" sound.
Black Stone's figure had disappeared into the deepest part of that black hole.
"leave here."
Jiang Shinian's eyes darkened slightly.
Then, an endless black shadow rose up from beneath his feet.
The deepest darkness enveloped Jiang Shinian's figure, pulling him into the shadows.
Here, a gentle breeze blows, and the grass and trees sway.
The flickering flames gradually disappeared from view.
Chapter 84 The Twelve Talismans Emerge!
[Event triggered, quest begins]
[Task 1]:
[Task Description]: The New Year is approaching, and all twelve talismans have been created. The tiger is your most crucial talisman. Your friends won't be so unreasonable as to stop you. So let the talisman return to its rightful place!
[Task Reward]: Magic - Have you had a bad day?
"Is the last talisman about to appear in the world?"
Jiang's soul remained quietly within the sculpture.
Looking at the system notification that popped up, it was another new task.
With its gaze fixed on the mission, the dragon sculpture's eyes gleamed with a faint crimson light.
He readily accepted the task.
"A shadowy figure!"
Jiang gave a low shout, and instantly, a dark shadow stretched wildly from outside the hall to the sculpture.
Then, a shadowy soldier stepped forward and respectfully bowed his head to Jiang Shinian.
"Bring Valmont here."
Jiang Shinian's eyes flashed with a bloodthirsty light as he gave the order.
"..."
"Snapped!"
The shadowy ninja tapped the bell that summoned Valmont.
He then respectfully lowered his head and disappeared into the wall beside him.
"click"
Jiang Shinian didn't have to wait long before Valon pushed open the door and walked in.
