My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 296 Slaying the Dragon
Jiang Xinghuo looked at the text message on his phone. The first time he saw this name was when he was exploring the map of Coffin Town.

He found a prop material called "Eight Sea Dragon Kings Picture" from the Dirty Meat Immortal at the buffet.

Jiang Xinghuo flipped through the game records again and found text records about the Eight Sea Dragon Kings.

According to the background setting of the game, the Eight Seas Dragon King is a great god in the northwest region of the secular world. Legend has it that he controls the water of the eight seas and nine rivers. He once fought with the Yellow River God for seven days and seven nights, and in the end the two sides were evenly matched.

But...shouldn't it stay in the northwest of the secular world?
How could it appear in the underground palace of the Yellow River God and become a stone statue?

Jiang Xinghuo was just thinking about it when he saw a new text message pop up in the game.

"You have triggered the Tathagata's talent."

"You have gained insight into the secrets behind this statue."

"You will find that these seemingly ordinary statues are actually made by Tiangongye's unique craftsmanship and have the effect of suppressing and sealing away evil spirits."

Seeing this, Jiang Xinghuo finally understood what was going on. It turned out that the Eight Sea Dragon Kings were sealed in the stone statue.

There is no doubt that it was definitely the work of Mr. Yellow River. It is estimated that because of what happened in the past, Mr. Yellow River came to settle the score and sealed the Eight Dragon Kings here.

At this time, the game text changes again.

"You feel that the Eight Sea Dragon Kings are calling you. Do you want to respond to his call?"

Hmm? Jiang Xinghuo looked at the newly popped up text and thought it was interesting. It seemed that the Eight Seas Dragon King was not dead.

Moreover, although the game didn't say what it wanted him to do, Jiang Xinghuo could guess it almost exactly.

I guess it wants me to help it unlock the seal, or do something for it.

This thought flashed through his mind, and Jiang Xinghuo's finger slid across the screen, choosing to respond to the other party.

"You chose to respond to the Eight Sea Dragon Kings. They said they had been suppressed for many years and hoped that you could break the statue to free them."

"If you can rescue it, I will give you a generous reward after it is out of trouble to repay you for saving its life today."

"Will you believe the other party's promise and rescue it from the seal of the stone statue?"

Tsk, how did he say that? The more Jiang Xinghuo looked at it, the more familiar it seemed to him. Yesterday he received a text message saying that as long as he transferred 2000 yuan, he could become the great general who protects the country of the Qin Dynasty and command a million terracotta soldiers.

"You have triggered the talent of the Hundred Flavor Eyes."

"You sensed the malice in the other party. Although it spoke beautifully, its heart was filled with murderous intent and greed."

"If you release it from its seal, it will probably kill you first and then take away the fragment of the law from you."

Oh, now your true intentions are exposed. Not only do you want to get something for free, but you also repay kindness with enmity afterwards. You want to destroy the bridge after crossing it and take away the fragment of the law from you. Don't blame me for being rude.

"You have detected the intention of the Eight Sea Dragon Kings. It has set its sights on the fragment of the Tidal Law on you."

"The Eight Sea Dragon Kings are constantly trying to tempt you to release it from its seal. What do you plan to do next?"

"How about you break the seal, release the Eight Sea Dragon Kings, and gamble on its conscience?"

"Or should you just kill it, and then everything will naturally belong to you?" There are two options, either let it out or kill it.

I believe that anyone with a normal brain knows how to choose. Jiang Xinghuo is not a fool, so he will not choose the first answer.

Although the Eight Sea Dragon Kings have been trapped here for many years and may have suffered serious injuries, they are, after all, monsters from ancient times and he is definitely no match for them.

And even if he didn't die, it would be a huge loss if the fragment of the law was taken away by the other party.

"You saw through the Eight Sea Dragon Kings' plot. At first, it tried to make excuses, but it was obvious that you had made up your mind not to let it go. The Eight Sea Dragon Kings gave up and started to curse at you."

"It curses the most vicious curse in the secular world, cursing you, a lowly person who has been spurned and exiled by the secular world. It will not let you have an easy life. It will make you pay the most painful price in the world."

"You have been cursed by the Eight Sea Dragon Kings."

"When the curse of the Eight Seas Dragon Kings is on you, all dragon species, monsters and demons whose cultivation is not higher than its level will hunt you down endlessly."

"Of course, if you change your mind now and decide to release it, it can also remove the curse on you, and its previous promise will also stand."

Jiang Xinghuo just thought it was farting. As for the curse, it didn't take it seriously at all. At most, it would go to the Forbidden City in Peking for a stroll. It believed that after dying a few times, the curse on its body would be offset.

This is information discovered by a player whose birth point is in Peking. It is said that no matter what kind of curse it is, even if it is cast by the Taoist master, as long as one dies a few times in the Forbidden City, it will disappear without a trace.

Of course, there is a price to pay, that is, every death in the Forbidden City will result in a loss of three to five thousand incense sticks.

"You have triggered the Dragon Identification Technique."

"The Dragon Identification Technique can identify the weaknesses of dragons, monsters and demons, but the opponent's strength is far superior to yours. The incomplete Dragon Identification Technique you have mastered cannot identify the weaknesses of the Eight Sea Dragon Kings."

"However, your Tathagatagarbha has endowed the Dragon Identification Technique with a completely new ability. As the dragon shadows fly, the weaknesses and reverse scales of the Eight Sea Dragon Kings are clearly visible to you."

"You discovered that the fatal weakness of the Eight Sea Dragon Kings is not under the reverse scale, but has been transferred to the top of the head covered with dragon horn scales."

"This is a trick that the Eight Sea Dragon Kings borrowed from the horizontal training method. He used the method of transferring meridian acupoints to transfer his weak point to the hardest part of his body. As for the reverse scale, it is just for show."

After seeing this text, Jiang Xinghuo thought that it was right. If it were someone else, they might have attacked Ni Lin, and maybe accidentally released the other party from the seal.

However, now that I have found its true weakness, the only thing waiting for it is death.

"You stabbed the evil star into the Eight Sea Dragon King's weak spot, and the terrifying power of thunder spread out, ruthlessly destroying the vitality in the Eight Sea Dragon King's body."

"You have killed the Eight Sea Dragon Kings."

"The terrifying and overbearing lightning destroyed all life. Even the body of the Eight Sea Dragon Kings was turned into charcoal, no longer worth reusing."

"You tried to extract incense from such lifeless remains, but you didn't extract anything. Unfortunately, you lost a considerable amount of incense."

"But at the same time, you have also accomplished a feat that is worthy of being recorded in the history of the secular world. Your reputation within the Exile community has been greatly improved."

"You have obtained the clue of Black Emperor City."
