From the Valkyrie to the Endless

Yan Baohai came to his senses, quickly raised the whip in his hand, and urged the donkey cart to move forward.

With so many people dead at once, the thick bloody smell will definitely attract some unknown creatures.

The convoy had just been going for less than a moment when a deafening roar was heard behind them. The sound was heard for dozens of miles, and strong winds swept through the forest, shaking off countless snow.

Shen Qing moved her ears, turned over, and temporarily suppressed the urge to look back. She had a splitting headache and needed to rest for a while.

Yan Baohai, who was standing aside, felt a little scared. If he walked slower, he might have run into the unknown beast behind him.

…………

…………

When we returned to the village, the wind and snow had gradually subsided and many people were already waiting at the entrance of the village.

Yan Baohai turned around and was about to call Shen Qing, but suddenly found that Shen Qing had disappeared.

After asking the villagers to move their things, Yan Baohai went to the temple.

As expected, Shen Qing was in the temple, lying on a broken stone with his eyes closed.

"Immortal family."

Yan Baohai hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and bowed.

"I want to use the remaining spiritual stones to build a golden body for you. Look..."

"Ah."

At this moment, Shen Qing had no intention of listening to what he said. He just waved his hand impatiently and continued to close his eyes to rest.

After receiving Shen Qing's reply, Yan Baohai was overjoyed and bowed before leaving.

Agreeing to build the golden body means that Shen Qing is willing to continue to protect the Snake Village.

This was great news for the Snake Village. Although they lost the Red Snake, they gained a bigger backer.

As the palace door closed, Shen Qing gradually sank into darkness and fell into the deepest sleep.

Shen Qing slept for most of half a month.

When he opened his eyes again, the pain deep in his soul had eased a lot and was almost unnoticeable.

But this injury has reminded her that she needs certain means to protect her soul, or a method to strengthen her own soul.

The sundial can only affect her body, and has no effect on her soul.

Although the reason is unclear, this is something Shen Qing must pay attention to as his cultivation level improves.

In the future, she will encounter more and more enemies, and their fighting methods will become more and more bizarre. It is not uncommon for them to attack the soul directly without going through the physical body.

At that time, if her soul is shattered, no matter how strong her body is, it will be meaningless.

Shen Qing sat cross-legged quietly on the broken stone, regulating his breathing for a moment, and suddenly realized something was wrong.

A very unfamiliar energy was surrounding her.

Shen Qing raised his finger, and a hazy gray light appeared at his fingertips.

After staring at the energy for a while, Shen Qing suddenly raised his eyebrows and realized its source.

This is the condensation of the power of faith and the power of incense and vows.

It is with this power that the gods have become the controllers of this era.

The more believers there are, the stronger the power is. Compared with other ways of cultivation, becoming a god through burning incense is undoubtedly much easier and more convenient.

Relatively speaking, the composition of this kind of willpower is somewhat complex and extremely unstable.

This unstable factor made Shen Qing have no intention of absorbing it into his body.

After coming to this era, Shen Qing wanted to learn more about the paths of cultivation.

If the situation had not been too critical at the beginning, Shen Qing would not even have planned to practice the Secret Book of Planetary Origin.

Transcending time and space is her unique special power.

Under such convenient circumstances, Shen Qing can try other paths and combine the strengths of all schools.

After all, the Star Source Secret Book is just a Taoist method. There are many methods of the same level as it, and it is not the most powerful way in the world.

Similarly, praying for incense and making vows is naturally not her choice.

However, Shen Qing had no intention of wasting these gathered wishes. Instead, he temporarily sealed them into a meridian, perhaps they would be useful in the future.

After adjusting his own state, Shen Qing pondered for a moment, then stood up and opened the door of the temple.

She planned to go into the mountains to find a new demon beast or spiritual beast to replace the previous red snake to guard the snake village.

She had no plans to stay here for long. A disaster was about to happen in the southern region, and many people would die.

A large number of deaths means epidemics and wars. If the gods in the Southern Region are unwilling to leave and invade the beliefs of other gods, then they will inevitably start a war to compete for the remaining believers.

There are few believers but many gods. Shen Qing can see the future development of the Southern Region even with his butt.

A war of this level will affect billions of lives, and no one knows how many people will die.

As for those reclusive sects, it is naturally impossible for them to stay out of it.

Shen Qing will stay in this era for nearly one hundred and twenty years. No matter how you think about it, the Southern Region is not a suitable place to stay for a long time. The sooner you leave, the sooner you can get out.

As soon as the door of the temple was opened, sunlight shone in.

The snow had stopped for a few days. Under the warm winter sun, the melted water condensed into colorful ice again.

As soon as he stepped out of the temple gate, Shen Qing saw a human-shaped stone sculpture standing in the center of the Snake Village.

The stone sculpture is exactly what she looks like now, with a big snake under her feet.

A sacrificial ceremony was being held in the village, and it was extremely lively.

When Shen Qing saw the stone sculpture, some vague memories came to her mind, as if Yan Baohai had come to see her before she fell asleep.

A sacrifice was being held in front of the stone sculpture. Through these pious calls, Shen Qing could even sense their thoughts.

For a moment, Shen Qing felt a little bit awkward. Looking at a bunch of kids who knew nothing, kneeling in front of the stone sculptures, following their family elders and praying devoutly, it made people feel a little uncomfortable.

After thinking about it, Shen Qing retreated, turned into a stream of light, and ran directly into the forest.

The more you are connected to the people in Snake Village, the harder it will be to get away. It is better to have less dealings with them.

The powerful monsters usually have obvious auras, and they have each carved out their own territories, so they are not difficult to find.

Soon, Shen Qing dug out a huge silver-armored lizard from the snow. It was very powerful and had reached the peak of the Condensation Stage.

But for Shen Qing today, he is no match at all.

The silver-armored lizard had just jumped up when Shen Qing pressed it to the ground from a distance, and it struggled and could not move.

Shen Qing tried to communicate with it, but no matter how hard he tried, the lizard continued to resist and struggle, full of murderous intent.

In the end, Shen Qing could only imitate what he did to the red snake and skinned it.

Shen Qing did not make any move against the demon beasts and spiritual beasts at the Manifestation Realm and below, and did not even look at them.

Firstly, their intelligence is too low and communication is impossible. Secondly, with such strength, it is difficult to protect the Snake Village.

Fighting all the way from the south to the north of the mountains, Shen Qing killed four demon beasts in the Condensation Realm, but not a single one was willing to cooperate with him, and they would rather die than surrender.

In the end, Shen Qing returned empty-handed, having only accumulated the flesh, blood, scales and other materials of several monsters.

After returning to the village, Shen Qing gave the flesh and blood of the monster to some of the villagers in Snake Village, and received many thanks from them again.

In the eyes of most children, the Red Snake just kept them alive and did not treat them as human beings.

Shen Qing filled their stomachs and treated them as human beings. The difference between them was immeasurable.

The fire of faith burned even more fiercely.

After resting for half a day, Shen Qing took out the skeletons of the monsters, and then referred to some of the spiritual patterns he had studied before, and temporarily set up a protective magic circle for the Snake Village.

After doing all this, Shen Qing returned to Haoyin City alone again, sold all the demon pills and scales he had, and obtained more than two hundred medium-grade spirit stones.

After getting these spirit stones, Shen Qing couldn't wait to start searching for his target on the street.

The biggest difference between this era and later generations is that there are more systematic and standardized ways of practicing.

Weapon casting, alchemy, cultivation, spiritual formations and talismans, these all have something that is lacking in later generations.

Integrity.

It is not shameful to follow the old path of your predecessors. At least someone has already walked this path for you, so you won't stumble when walking on it.

It is certainly commendable to innovate, but the prerequisite is to have the ability to do so. If you accidentally go astray, you will only waste your time.

Among these things, what Shen Qing was most interested in was the spiritual formation.

The spirit pattern is the basis for constructing all the laws between the heaven and the earth, and it is the ultimate truth that the talented people from all walks of life have comprehended from the heaven and the earth.

At the same time, this is the most powerful way spoken by a Taoist ancestor, so it naturally has certain reference significance.

Shen Qing doesn't mind learning more and having another trump card. For her, there are only benefits and no disadvantages.

Anyway, she has plenty of time in this life, which is just right for enriching herself.

Without much hesitation, Shen Qing quickly chose his first development direction.

Spiritual array master.

After learning the spirit formation, you will be able to learn weapon casting without a teacher, and learning talismans will also be even easier.

In this case, there is little room for hesitation.

After determining the next route, Shen Qing arrived at the City Lord's Mansion of Haoyin City first.

She had to get the free accommodation first.

By practicing in this kind of spiritual environment, even if his talent is poor, Shen Qing has an absolute chance of entering the Gangsha realm within ten years.

However, Haoyin City may not be able to survive for another ten years.

The location of the City Lord's Mansion was quite easy to find. In just a short while, Shen Qing arrived in front of the City Lord's Mansion.

The City Lord's Mansion is over three hundred feet long and wide, with a square in front of the gate.

In the center of the square stood a jade sculpture, sparkling with glazed light, and it was a woman.

Perhaps it was because of the contact with the power of faith, the moment Shen Qing saw the jade carving, he vaguely felt the power of this deity.
