My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 293: Message from the Great Immortal
"You explored the cave but found nothing."

"You were exploring the cave, and by the light of the torch, you saw a resurrection grass growing on the wall, so you picked it."

"You have obtained the Resurrection Herb."

"Resurrection Grass (common material), a medicinal herb that grows in extremely yin places. It has the effect of refreshing the mind and replenishing energy. It is also the main material for refining the Resurrection Pill."

"You stayed in the cave to explore, but you didn't notice there was a puddle under your feet. You stepped on the mud and almost fell to the ground. The torch also fell from your hand and fell into the puddle and went out."

"You continue to explore the cave and see something glowing in the corner at the end of the cave."

"You walked over and found a breath-hiding talisman. The talisman was carved on the mountain wall. It was difficult to detect because it was obscured by the firelight. It was not until the torch went out that the faint light caught your attention."

"The Breath-Concealing Talisman (Excellent Talisman), a talisman developed by a master of folk dharma, can conceal the flow of various breaths in the world."

"Your treasure-hunting eye is just a nascent organ, and your proficiency is still low, so it was concealed by the effect of the breath-concealing talisman."

"You copied the Breath-Concealing Talisman onto paper, analyzed the recipe, and then destroyed the talisman with a punch."

"Without the effect of the Concealing Talisman, your Treasure Hunting Eye has also played a corresponding role."

"You have triggered the talent of treasure-hunting eyes."

"You found a package under the smashed stone. When you took it out, you saw that it indeed contained many broken mural fragments and a letter from the Great Immortal."

"You pieced these mural fragments together and formed two incomplete murals again."

"Look at the first mural fragment. What is painted on it is not information related to Mr. Huang He, but the experience of the treasure-hoarder back then."

"The murals record that the treasure-hiding man was able to survive because of a celestial change. The full moon in the sky became crescent, and the Yellow River was affected by the gravity of the celestial body. The stone door of the underground palace floated up, allowing the treasure-hiding man to enter the underground palace. This is how he was lucky enough to escape the disaster... The rest of the story is incomplete."

"This broken mural only records this information. As for what happened afterwards and how the treasure-hiding man got out of the underground palace, we don't know it now. You need to explore it yourself."

Jiang Xinghuo sighed a few times and said, "You might say there was no gain, but these mural fragments we found recorded a lot of important things."

But if you say there is any big gain, it seems a bit hard to say. It's just a bunch of miscellaneous and broken clues, with no beginning or end, which really makes people feel uncomfortable.

Jiang Xinghuo looked at the other two things helplessly.

"You read the last words left by the Great Immortal and got a glimpse of the reasons from the words between the lines."

"Great Immortal, the monsters and demons of Guandong in the secular world are also recognized as the successor of the mantle by all the immortals outside the pass."

"If ordinary people want to become disciples of Chuma, they need to go through a rigorous training process before they can gradually gain the recognition of the immortals."

"And even if you become a shaman disciple, you can only set up a hall to support a limited number of immortals."

"The Great Immortal is an exception. He was born with a destiny to be an immortal. He has all the orifices open to him. He does not need to practice to open his orifices. He can borrow the power of the immortals without any sequelae."

"It is precisely because of this that the immortals of various races occupy a position in the Great Immortal's hall, and can borrow the power of multiple immortals at the same time." "The Great Immortal had heard that there was an underground palace under the Yellow River, so he wanted to use his own abilities to enter and explore it."

"In the end, I don't know what method it used, but after paying a heavy price, it actually found a way to enter the underground palace."

"However, because it didn't know the specific structure of the underground palace, it was ambushed and seriously injured by the traps inside the underground palace. It wanted to find a place to heal its wounds, but it was contaminated by the radiation under the cemetery. It seemed that there was no way for it to survive."

"Before he died, the Great Immortal buried the things he had obtained, and carved a talisman on the surface of the stone wall to conceal his breath. He also passed the relevant clues to his tribe members. I didn't expect that you would get all the benefits now."

"The Great Immortal has written in his suicide note that after burying everything, he will go to the stone bridge to explore."

"If people don't find its body in the cave later, it means it died over there. Don't go there to explore rashly."

After reading this description, Jiang Xinghuo raised his eyebrows, thinking that this great immortal was just like Ye Feilong, both of them had fallen victim to the radiation under the tiankeng.

I don’t know if this was a trap specially set by Mr. Yellow River or if these two unlucky guys just happened to run into it.

"You look toward another fragment of the mural."

"The murals record that under the guidance of the old man, Master Huang He's cultivation became increasingly profound, and his control over the tidal laws became more and more proficient. He also learned a lot of knowledge related to water control from the old man. Until one day, Master Huang He had an argument with the old man, and not only did he severely injure the old man, he also sealed him in a black coffin... The subsequent records are incomplete."

There is no more information in the game, and all the mural fragments that can be found now have been found by Jiang Xinghuo. However, not only did it fail to solve his doubts, but it also brought more problems.

Jiang Xinghuo scratched his head and thought that it would be great if there was a complete mural. The clues found so far were too fragmentary and it was difficult to form complete and useful information.

"You're back above the sinkhole."

"You are standing at a fork in the road again, facing another choice in life. I wonder what choice you will make this time?"

This time, the game text gives two options. There is no cliff jumping to find an alternative way. It is either left or right, either to explore the hall on the left or to explore the stone bridge on the right.

Jiang Xinghuo pondered for a while. No one had explored the hall on the left, but someone had walked across the stone bridge on the right. Logically speaking, he should choose the stone bridge on the right, which would at least reduce some danger.

However, Jiang Xinghuo still chose the hall on the left. He didn't know where the stone bridge led to. He only had seven days of priority exploration rights. If he was trapped in the game, it would be a waste of time.

Just like taking an exam, don’t always think about doing the big questions. Get the other small scores first. Even if you don’t have time to do the big questions, your scores won’t be too low.

"You choose to take the road on the left. The dusty hall is within reach. You walk to the front of the hall. The heavy stone door is a test for you. It does not have any mechanism or lock. The only feature is that it is thick and heavy enough."

"If you want to enter the hall and explore, you must rely on your own strength to push open this heavy stone door."

"You went forward and tried to push it, but the stone door didn't move at all, as if it had merged with the ground. Perhaps you can try to use some external force to push the stone door."

Typos are corrected after updating. Some of them are really hard to pick out. I read them several times before posting, and there are still some typos.
