My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 233 Mission Completed
"What are you going to do next?"

"Will you dismantle the dragon's body directly? Or will you search its body carefully first?"

Of the two options, Jiang Xinghuo chose the latter.

"You used the Xinghe Zhenshui technique to drain the surrounding river water, leaving a dry area, and then began to search the dragon's corpse."

"After careful inspection and exploration, you found a storage item in the reverse scale area under the dragon's chin."

"The reverse scale is the weakest part of dragon pythons, and it is also the hardest and most hidden part. It is reasonable for the White Water River God to hide the storage bag here."

"Do you want to open the storage bag?"

"You opened the storage bag of the White Water River God and found that there was not much inside, only an ancient stone carving."

"You have obtained the Dragon Raising Technique: Possession."

"This stone carving records the inheritance of the dragon-raising technique, but the content is incomplete."

"The dragon-raising technique of the clan government is an ancient secret method, originally engraved on a complete stone tablet."

"But at dawn, the Forbidden City fell into chaos. In order to prevent the inheritance from falling into the hands of thieves, the chief of the clan affairs office divided the stone tablet into nine parts and gave them to different disciples, scattering them in the secular world."

"This stone carving records the method of possessing a body. It is precisely because of this that the Baishui River God was able to occupy the body of a long-dead dragon and become the ghost of the Baishui River."

"You have triggered the Tathagata's talent."

"You found that this stone carving looked familiar, as if you had seen the same pattern somewhere before. You opened your magic bag and found the stone carving you got from the Baishui River Underground Palace in the living world."

"You discovered that the materials of these two stone carvings are exactly the same, as if they were cut from the same complete stone slab."

"You have discovered the Dragon Raising Technique: Shinto."

"The stone carving in your hand is actually a legacy of the Dragon Raising Technique. It's just that a powerful person used a mythical item to conceal its true identity. Only by finding other Dragon Raising Techniques can we break the restriction from last year."

"The inheritance engraved on this stone carving is the law of Shinto. As long as you tattoo the above on your body and connect with the breath of mountains and rivers, you can become the god of mountains and rivers in the secular world."

Seeing this, Jiang Xinghuo suddenly realized. He never expected that the [Stone Carving of River God's Tattoo] was also one of the inheritances of dragon-raising techniques.

That is to say, I now have two dragon-raising techniques in my hands, but they don't seem to be of much help to me.

Let’s first talk about the dragon-raising technique called “Possession of Other Bodies”. It is about giving up one’s original body and occupying the body of another living being.

Jiang Xinghuo felt that this spell might only come in handy when it was a last resort and there was no way out except death.

Besides, the dragon-raising technique in the "Shinto Chapter" may not seem like a big deal on the surface. As long as you tattoo it on your body, you can become a mountain god or a river god.

But once I use this technique, I'm afraid I will no longer be free and will be subject to many restrictions.

More importantly, the game text had clearly stated that only the direct descendants of the royal family could practice the art of raising dragons.

However, from the perspective of the Baishui River God of the Yin and Yang worlds, this condition does not seem to matter. It should only be a restriction on status rather than a restriction on bloodline.

Just like in the ancient feudal dynasties, yellow cloth and dragon and phoenix embroidery were only available to the royal family.

But if ordinary people are not afraid of death, they can also get a set of dragon robes and wear them at home.

Jiang Xinghuo pondered for a long time, and finally put the two articles on dragon-raising techniques into his magic bag.

The next thing was much simpler. According to the interactive options given by the game, Jiang Xinghuo chose to dismantle the dragon's body. The dragon scales and dragon horns naturally all belonged to him. Jiang Xinghuo had no use for the remaining dragon flesh and blood, so he took it all out and gave it to the martial arts hall owner.

The owner of the martial arts hall did not show any reaction to this. The text message given by the game was that the owner of the martial arts hall was going to take this opportunity to practice martial arts.

If you succeed, you will become a ghost fairy. If you fail, your soul will be scattered.

Jiang Xinghuo couldn't help much, so he took the gourd of the crane boy and rushed to the Dragon City Museum in the underworld.

He wanted to find General Zeng's statue to submit the task and receive the reward. He had exceeded the target and wondered if the reward would be more generous.

"You have arrived at the museum in Dragon City."

"When you push open the door of the museum, the three roads appear in front of you. Which road do you choose to go first?"

There were three roads. Jiang Xinghuo didn't want to cause any trouble for the time being, so he directly chose the middle road leading to the museum building.

"You chose the middle path."

"You walked into the museum building. You walked through the corridors on the left and right last time. Do you want to walk through them again this time? Or do you want to go directly to the exhibition room where the General Zeng's sculpture is stored?"

Jiang Xinghuo thought about it and decided that it would be pointless to walk through it again. Although it was a game, the world on the other side of the phone was real, and there was no such thing as refreshing equipment or props.

Therefore, Jiang Xinghuo chose to go to the exhibition room where the sculpture of General Zeng was placed.

"You have entered the exhibition room."

"The statue of General Zeng is placed in the center of the exhibition room. Do you want to put the gourd into his hand and submit the trial task?"

Jiang Xinghuo chose yes without any hesitation.

"You placed the gourd into the hands of the statue of General Zeng."

"You have been recognized by General Zeng."

"You have obtained the Three-pronged Heaven-supporting Fork."

"The three-pronged sky-supporting fork is one of the magical weapons carried by the red-faced General Zeng. As long as you hold the steel fork in your hand and step on the Dou Gang, you can summon General Zeng to descend to the mortal world, sweep away the evil winds and ghosts, and suppress all the evil demons."

Become!

Seeing the information given in the game text, Jiang Xinghuo's heart moved. He spent so much effort for half a day and finally succeeded in obtaining the magic weapon to summon General Zeng.

With this magic weapon in hand, he no longer has to worry about Gui Yunzi's Seven Evils gathering souls.

No matter how vicious the Seven Evil Souls are, I believe they are no match for General Zeng, because they are the underworld gods that specifically target evil spirits.

"Where are you going next? Will you continue to hang out in the museum? Or will you explore somewhere else?"

Jiang Xinghuo thought about it and felt that things in the underworld were almost done. Now that the goal had been achieved, it would be better to return to the world of the living as soon as possible to deal with the tasks over there.

It won’t be too late to explore the underworld again if you have the chance in the future.

But before leaving, Jiang Xinghuo took another walk around the museum with the mentality of rather going there in vain than missing anything. He only left after making sure that there were no new interactive plots.
