Something strange is coming: I have 9000 trillion merits

Chapter 200 Strengthening
Black Palace.

Hong looked at the report from the intelligence department and felt a stomach ache.

He slammed the page on the table and shouted:
"Tell me, what does it mean to only know some legends and myths? Where is the history of the indigenous people in this fertile soil?"

"Your Excellency, all the indigenous people on this continent have died. Their history 1500 years ago is naturally unknown. Only a few scholars have done some research, but there are no very detailed historical events at all."

The head of the intelligence department is quite helpless. He is good at finding secrets from other countries. He can instigate rebellion, espionage, bribery... various methods.

But looking for history... isn't this difficult?

"Damn it! Those idiots have to kill all the natives!" Hong shouted angrily, not knowing who he was calling an idiot.

After all, the founding history of America is a history of indigenous massacres.

Hua Guo, Ministry of Security.

"Minister, here are the specific information about the Sixteen Kingdoms Rebellion 1500 years ago, official history, unofficial history and some folk rumors..."

Cheng Yu looked at the information presented to him and said in a deep voice:
"Hurry up and arrange for people to sort out this information and mark all incidents that are suspected of being strange. Don't let go of any clues!"

"Yes!"

After Cheng Yu finished speaking, he turned his attention to the live broadcast screen again.

The barrage in the live broadcast room has not stopped since Zhang Yongnian revealed that something strange had happened.

"Shadow Man won't believe it, right? I still think it's too ridiculous. Can such a huge thing really be concealed without a trace?"

"I have never heard of the Rebellion of the Sixteen Kingdoms."

"The Rebellion of the Sixteen Kingdoms is just what Zhang Yongnian said. We usually call it the Southern and Northern Dynasties period. At that time, a total of sixteen countries appeared."

"Stop talking, I've already started checking the information. If I can find any clues, I will publish them online!"

"Good man, I hope you can find something, preferably how to make the weirdness disappear! I've had enough of this weird era!"

"Wow, 1500 years ago, I just looked up the history of our country, and there were no people on this land at that time!"

"There are people in our country, but they were occupied by another powerful country, but that powerful country has long since disappeared."

"1500 years ago, China wouldn't be the only country to have something strange happen to it, right? Everyone, please look up the history of your country!"

In the barrage, some of the other netizens outside China were envious of China's long history, some were lamenting the past history of their country, and some were dismissive, thinking that these were all made up by Chinese people, how could a country's history be Could it have existed for so long?
And some countries that still have organizational capabilities have begun to look for what happened in that era in their own history.

…………

Duan Yuan and others followed the evil ghost out of the passage.

The sky is high and the earth is wide.

Perhaps it was the cramped passage or Zhang Yongnian's words that made everyone feel very depressed.

Suddenly they came to the open space again, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Duan Yuan took out the [Weird Compass].

Duan Yuan originally thought that the compass would lead them to meet Zhang Yongnian and get a clue to the next "Guiyi" bead. Unexpectedly, the compass was still pointing in the previous direction.

... Could it be that the compass is not pointing to the Black Pearl?Or is the compass pointing in the wrong direction this time?
Damn the odds!
Duan Yuan cursed secretly and led everyone towards the direction of the compass.

After leaving the passage far away, Duan Yuan asked:
"What do you think about Zhang Yongnian's words?"

"Aba, Aba, Aba, Aba!" Xiaopang said with a leaky mouth.

Chen Moying looked at Xiaopang and said:

"What Little Fatty said should be true. There is no need for Zhang Yongnian to lie to us."

"It must be fake!" Hu Xianyue said without thinking, "This Yongnian is trying to mess up our Taoist minds!"

"Mo Ying, what do you think?" Duan Yuan cast his eyes on Chen Moying.

"I think he only told part of the truth." Chen Moying said with certainty, "History is definitely not as simple as he said."

Xiaopang and Hu Xianyue pricked up their ears when they heard this.

"Remember that hall full of murals? There were many murals there, and I noticed a detail. In some of them, sixteen people lined up in a row, kneeling toward the sky."

"Could these 16 people exactly correspond to those 16 countries? But in Zhang Yongnian's statement, these [-] people and [-] countries were completely ignored.

Zhang Yongnian only talked about the three clans and the method of body temple among the people, and it seemed that he was deliberately avoiding those sixteen people.

Does this mean that those sixteen people are actually very crucial? "

Duan Yuan heard Chen Moying's statement from the side and couldn't help but nodded.

Chen Moying is indeed a master at grasping the key points. There are hundreds of murals in the hall, and she can understand such minute details.

Duan Yuan just felt that Zhang Yongnian's words were half-truth and half-false from the beginning, and he could never completely believe him.

"I share the same view as Mo Ying. This piece of Yongnian told us part of the truth, but also concealed something."

Duan Yuan carefully felt the surroundings, and after finding that no one was following him, he continued:

"It's strange that Zhang Yongnian has the method to strengthen the body temple. He has the method to open and strengthen the body temple, but he doesn't know the necessary conditions to open the body temple!

And...remember the Songfeng Town we passed by before?He filled the place with puppets, so strange, there must be his purpose..."

"Zhang Yongnian and this Yinshan sect are full of weird feelings..." Chen Moying concluded.

"Ha, he's out anyway. Don't worry about Zhang Yongnian anymore and let him die alone in the ghost valley!" Hu Xianyue said happily.

Xiaopang nodded fiercely when he heard this. He had suffered a lot this time, and he never wanted to go back to Ghost Valley again.

"I am very interested in the missing Ghost King sect Feng Changsheng.

We will first follow the compass, and when we reach our destination, we will go to Huaiyang City to meet up with Han Huo and the others, and then go south to meet Feng Changsheng from the Ghost King Sect. "

"Master, you don't really want to help Zhang Yongnian, do you?" Hu Xianyue asked with some confusion, "Since Zhang Yongnian doesn't tell the truth, we don't need to help him. Anyway, I don't know what happened to the strange thing 1500 years ago." Not interested either.

...But the method of strengthening the body temple is a troublesome thing.Why don't we go back and grab the other half now? "

Hearing this, Xiaopang shook his head vigorously. His meaning was obvious.

After hearing Hu Xianyue's words, Duan Yuan just smiled and said as he walked:

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Feng Changsheng and Zhang Yongnian are both from the Yinshan sect. Feng Changsheng may not know what Zhang Yongnian knows..."

"Seconds!" Hu Xianyue's eyes turned into two crescents as she smiled, "At that time, we can take advantage of the conflict between Feng Changsheng and Zhang Yongnian. Maybe we can get the benefits Zhang Yongnian promised from Feng Changsheng, such as the strengthening of the body temple. method, maybe it can still be obtained.”

Duan Yuan: "That's right. You can also compare the words of the two people to deduce the truth... I don't think Feng Changsheng will definitely tell us the truth."

"Hmph!" Hu Xianyue clenched her fists, "That Zhang Yongnian can hide in that ghost valley and be a tortoise, and even make a puppet to hide himself in the dark. I don't believe that this immortal letter can also be a tortoise. turtle!
If Feng Changsheng dares not to tell the truth then, he will be beaten until he tells the truth! "

I must get the Wild Black Pearl!Duan Yuan thought silently in his heart.

Everyone fell silent again and continued walking in the woods.

Only then did Duan Yuan have time to distractedly check the harvest of sealing and wiping his face.

[merit +800]

[Seal: LV5 face-wiping trick. 】

[Available points +1]

[Skill acquired: Possession (Level 1)]

[Possession (Level 1): Leaning over the creature you control.The basic attributes of the bent creature are increased by 30%. The bent creature is destroyed without causing damage to itself.Can be terminated at any time. 】

[Negative effect: The sealing facial trick will cause the skin on the face to erode continuously.Consuming 25 merit points every month can appease the face-wiping ghost so that it will have no negative effects on you. 】

Possession?

Duan Yuan thought about it carefully, and it seemed that this skill could only possess the [Devious Servant] and [Plague Guard] he summoned.Both of these are Duan Yuan's summoned creatures, and they definitely meet the criteria of "controlling creatures". However, the abilities of these two summoned creatures are not very strong, and are far inferior to Duan Yuan's original body.

But Duan Yuan thought about it carefully and found that this skill didn't seem to be offensive, but when he thought about it carefully, it had many uses.

The Servant is very fast and small in size. It can go to places that are far away and inaccessible, and then cancel its skills and change back to its original appearance.

not bad.

This is Duan Yuan’s evaluation of [Possession].

Next...

This is the method of strengthening the noumenon temple.

Duan Yuan opened the booklet.

The booklet is very thin and the paper is yellowed.

Duan Yuan opened the booklet and found that a lot of paper had been torn off at the front of the booklet and a lot more at the back, leaving only about 20 pages.

After reading the content carefully, Duan Yuan began to run the strengthening method according to the content in the album.

Just after the method was completed, Duan Yuan felt like he was in the body temple.

Duan Yuan's body temple has been strengthened with four beams and eight pillars, and has become increasingly golden, which is very different from the dusty appearance at the beginning.

Just when Duan Yuan observed carefully, the body temple changed.

The wall in the body temple that had remained unchanged changed its color.

Starts from dark red to bright.

It's like a new coat of paint on the old wall paint.

[ Merit - 100. 】

[The body temple has been strengthened successfully. 】

[Strength +1, Constitution +1]

Ok?
So simple?
Duan Yuan continued to use the method of strengthening the body temple.

[ Merit - 500. 】

[The body temple has been strengthened successfully. 】

[Strength +2, Constitution +2]

Come again!

[ Merit - 2500. 】

[The body temple has been strengthened successfully. 】

[Strength +3, Constitution +3]

[ Merit - 12500. 】

[The body temple has been strengthened successfully. 】

[Strength +4, Constitution +4]

Just when Duan Yuan was about to continue strengthening, he received a prompt.

[The number of eight pillars is insufficient and the body temple can no longer be used to strengthen them. 】

Not enough eight pillars?

I have built a total of four eight pillars, and now they have been strengthened four times, which means that the number of times of strengthening is linked to the number of eight pillars...

but……

Duan Yuan thought about which booklet had parts of the front and back torn off, and felt that the strengthening method might not be that simple. Not only did this Yongnian not give him the method to strengthen his agility and spirit, he was probably hiding more...

"I'm afraid we have to find Feng Changsheng to know part of the truth..."

Duan Yuan thought silently, and then stopped thinking about the method of strengthening the body temple, and instead focused on his own attributes.

He added some of the attributes obtained by sealing the face to his physique.

Name: Duan Yuan

Strength: 55.3 (The basic strength of an average adult is 5, the same below.)
Agility: 47.6
Constitution: 31.5
Spirit: 36
Reinforcement: 4 layers (12500)

Duan Yuan found that not only had his strength and physique increased by 10 points, but he also had an additional strengthening attribute, which showed the number of layers he had strengthened and also indicated the merit points spent.

20 attributes.

Without this strengthening method, Duan Yuan would have needed to seal 20 weirdos to get so much, but now he only spent more than 1 points of merit to get it!

It's just too easy and relaxing.

But if this was said about other people, it would not be so easy.

In today's world, there are very few people who can spend [-] points of merit to open a body temple. For them, [-] points of merit is really too much...

Maybe the people who discovered the body temple method did not expect that 1500 years later, a man named Duan Yuan would use the merit bug to gain 9000 trillion merit.

Just when Duan Yuan was overjoyed, the narrator suddenly reminded him in his ear.

[The cooling time of Million Miles of Rivers and Mountains has expired. Do you want to enter? 】

Today is actually the day to enter the Jiangshan Map!
Duan Yuan then remembered that three days had passed since the last time he entered the Jiangshan Map.

In the past three days, so many things had happened that he had forgotten about entering the Jiangshan Map.

Duan Yuan quickly led everyone to rest where they were. He got into the tent, took out the map of mountains and rivers, and meditated silently in his heart.

Enter!

It's black in front of you.

Duan Yuan once again entered the Jiangshan Map.

After finding the right direction, Duan Yuan quickly ran towards Yuntian City.

When he arrived at the gate of Yuntian City, Duan Yuan did the same thing again, using ghost claws to make people think he was a ghost general, and walked into Yuntian City openly.

After entering the city, he asked someone for some information and then walked towards the City God's Temple.

The City God's Temple is located in the center of Yuntian City, and there are an endless stream of monsters, large and small, at the door.

Just when Duan Yuan was thinking about whether to pretend to be the ghost general of Youcheng in front of the Yuntian City City God, he was violently pulled by a force.

"Ouch!"

A male voice sounded.

Duan Yuan turned around and saw that it was Li Huzi who was coming to Yuntian City to investigate with him.

Li Huzi touched his head and felt that his eyes were filled with stars.

He just saw Duan Yuan and wanted to pull him to the side of the alley, but he didn't expect to pull Duan Yuan, causing him to fall heavily.

"Come with me quickly!"

Li Huzi glanced nervously at the monsters all around, and took Duan Yuan to a nearby alley.

Li Huzi led Duan Yuan through the alley skillfully, and whispered to Duan Yuan:
"I thought you escaped by taking a shit! I didn't expect that I misunderstood you."
