My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 390: Temporary Ending
Jiang Xinghuo held the Demon-Subduing Sword in his hand, closed his eyes, and drew the map of Fengdu Palace on yellow paper according to the extra memories in his mind.

However, he only drew the approximate location of Fengdu Palace. If one wanted to find its exact location, he would have to return to the real world and look for a map for careful comparison.

Jiang Xinghuo put the map into his magic bag and put the matter aside for the time being. It's not that he was not interested in the Fengdu Palace, but the key point was that there was no point in getting anxious now.

The information given in the game prompts was very clear. Even if he found the exact location of Fengdu Palace, he must collect three keys in order to enter.

The Demon-Subduing Sword is just one of them.

No one knows where the two keys are. They might be hidden in some corner.

Jiang Xinghuo smacked his lips, looked at the Demon-Subduing Sword in his hand, thought for a moment, and then threw the thing into the storage space.

Finally, Jiang Xinghuo walked into the mechanical cabin. He heard mechanical sounds in his ears, and then his eyes fell into darkness.

Immediately afterwards, illusory rays of light flashed in the cabin and began to scan Jiang Xinghuo's body layer by layer from the outside to the inside.

Jiang Xinghuo also heard a buzzing sound in his ears, and his mind gradually fell into a daze. He felt that the strength in his body was slowly dissipating.

Those powers that had long been integrated into the blood genes were also decomposed by an unknown force and then stripped from the genetic sequence in Jiang Xinghuo's body.

At the same time, Jiang Xinghuo's body was also being reconstructed.

He could clearly feel that the power contained in his body had disappeared without a trace, and he was like an ordinary person, feeling as if he had become the person he was before entering the game.

I don’t know how much time had passed, but Jiang Xinghuo suddenly felt his mind clear up and he woke up immediately, as if nothing had happened.

Jiang Xinghuo opened his eyes, walked out of the mechanical cabin, stretched out his right hand, and wanted to summon the Kitchen God Fire, but there was no response.

Lei Fa, still no response.

There was thunder in the sky and sea on the ground, but still no reaction.

The art of walking?
The devil disintegrated Dafa?

Five ghost techniques?
Five rampant soldiers?

Limb splicing method?

Turbid Immortal Technique?
Jiang Xinghuo sucked his teeth and looked back at the mechanical cabin, thinking that this thing was powerful enough to remove 70% of the power in his body and seal the remaining 30%.

That's right, it's a seal.

Jiang Xinghuo could clearly feel the Kitchen God Fire, Thunder Ancestor's Treasure Scroll, Heavenly Thunder and Earth Sea, Heavenly Demon Disintegration Technique, Limb Reassembly Dharma, Fragments of the Law of Disaster, Fragments of the Law of Cause and Effect, Five Ghost Techniques, Peach Blossom Thunder Tattoo, Divine Movement Technique...

These things are still in my body, but they are currently in a dormant state.

Even the fourteen main meridian acupoints that had been opened were sealed again, and the ability to communicate with the creatures that were suppressed in the body was lost.

To use the professional terminology in the game, my current situation is that my account has been washed.

And it was washed very cleanly, without even a hair left.

Come alone, leave alone.

Now I am just an ordinary person.

I guess Zhang Dalong was waiting for this opportunity, wanting to use his evil magic to take over my body when I become an ordinary person.

That way, he would be able to break free from the seal that Fengdu had placed on him.

According to the memory in his mind, Zhang Dalong's identity is the same as Fengdu, both are researchers in the Yegui Village Laboratory.

When the last civilization was destroyed, Zhang Dalong escaped by chance and hid in the underworld and fell into a deep sleep. However, he was discovered when Fengdu conquered the underworld.

For some unknown reason, the two men started a fierce battle.

Fengdu sealed the power in his body at the cost of breaking his sword, and imprisoned him in the Half-Ghost Village, making it impossible for him to leave this place forever.

As for the Huangquan Village, it is just a projection of the Half-Ghost Village, and all the creatures in the village are clay dolls made by Zhang Dalong.

The red and white collision that he had seen earlier was also orchestrated by Zhang Dalong, who wanted to lure himself to the Wild Ghost Village laboratory.

However, man proposes, God disposes. Zhang Dalong still underestimated Jiang Xinghuo's strength, so all his plans failed and he ended up dying.

Jiang Xinghuo raised his eyes and looked around again. Although the power in his body had dissipated, the horizontal eye between his eyebrows, the Tathagata storehouse in his right eye, the fused organ in his left eye, and the Eight Trigrams Cave Spirit Ears of the Kitchen God were not affected by this power.

It's also good news.

Jiang Xinghuo sighed softly. Although he was a little upset, he was not heartbroken.

You have to know that many of those dissipated skills and spells are not often used, so it doesn’t matter if they are gone.

Those spells that I frequently use are still in my body, I just need to find a way to unlock them.

But at this moment, a force suddenly emerged in Jiang Xinghuo's body.

It was a mysterious breath full of vitality, which permeated his entire body in the blink of an eye and integrated into every gene and soul of Jiang Xinghuo.

"Is this... the power of the Golden Law?"

Jiang Xinghuo adapted to the somewhat strange yet familiar power in his body and soon found out the source of this power.

It is the supreme golden law of the secular world.

It is also called the Origin Dao Mark.

only……

Jiang Xinghuo felt it carefully and found that the completeness of the Golden Law seemed to be much more complete than before.

"You have obtained the broken golden law."

"Law completeness: 1.376%."

Jiang Xinghuo was pleasantly surprised. He did not expect that after this incident, he not only eliminated the hidden danger in his body, but also obtained the fragments of the Golden Law.

And as the golden law dissolved into the genetic bloodline, the dormant forces gradually revived.

The Thunder Ancestor's Treasure Scroll flashed brilliantly between his internal organs, and the main meridians and acupoints on his body also began to sparkle. The sea of ​​thunder and lightning spread out behind him, and countless limbs and decayed bodies were wrapped in the Kitchen God's fire and swept in all directions...

In just a few breaths, the blocked power in Jiang Xinghuo's body had been completely restored.

"It's done!"

Feeling the powerful force contained in his body, Jiang Xinghuo let out a long sigh and finally felt confident.

If those powers were not restored, Jiang Xinghuo would feel somewhat uncomfortable in his heart, mainly because he would not have enough sense of security.

Now he doesn't have to worry about that.

"It's time to leave." Jiang Xinghuo looked up at the mechanical cabin.

He knew in his heart that the reason why he obtained the fragment of the Golden Law was probably because of this mechanical cabin.

I don’t know what the fragments of laws and skills and spells that are stripped from my body will eventually become after being transformed by this machine.

But no matter what, he no longer has any worries, and no longer has to worry about being possessed by those powerful beings from ancient times.

Next, his goal is to explore the secular world, search for as many ownerless laws as possible, and then establish his own beacon.

According to the old men in the ancestral hall, in the era they lived in, only those who set the standard were qualified to be called truly strong.

Moreover, as long as the beacon is not destroyed, people will not really die. Even if they are seriously injured, the worst result is to fall into a deep sleep.

Afterwards, Jiang Xinghuo left the laboratory and came to the outside of the mountain tunnel.

He did not mean to destroy this laboratory. Whether other players can find this place depends on their luck.

Moreover, Jiang Xinghuo himself also thought about it. If he didn't have the item Risui, and only explored here from the perspective of the game text, would he trigger the plot of the Wild Ghost Village like now?

I'm afraid it will be difficult.

Because the perspective of the text is too rigid, it greatly limits the player's exploration, and what they can see is also very limited, and there is a high probability that the plot of the Wild Ghost Village cannot be triggered.

At most, it will advance to the plot of the red and white clash, and then new plot clues will be triggered.

Jiang Xinghuo opened his eyes wide from between his brows, followed the loess road under his feet, left the Wild Ghost Village, and returned to the Half Ghost Village outside.

Zhang Dalong died in the laboratory, and the Half-Ghost Village became a completely deserted village.

Jiang Xinghuo took out the map of the Half-Ghost Village from his body, and according to the markings on the map, he came to the halfway point of a mountain outside the village.

The place marked on the map was a cave. It was pitch black and no sound could be heard.

Jiang Xinghuo took out the oil-sealed lamp from the magic bag, used his magic power to urge the oil-sealed ghost to secrete a large amount of lamp oil, and walked into the dark and lightless Shandong.

At the same time, Jiang Xinghuo was also ready to take action. The peach blossom thunder pattern tattoo appeared on his skin, and he could unleash a powerful thunder attack at any time.

However, to his surprise, there was no danger in the cave, and he did not find anything unusual when he walked all the way to the end of the cave.

But at the end of the cave, we found something that could be called a living creature.

It was a piece of black rock, as big as a millstone, with its surface covered with dense bumps and depressions, beating slightly like a heart.

Looking at the strange creature in front of him, Jiang Xinghuo's right pupil appeared, and he quickly understood the true face of this thing.

"Listen carefully. The ancient secular gods that are circulated in the secular legends are biological instruments left behind after the destruction of the previous civilization."

"It was later discovered by Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva of Shifang Zen Monastery from an ancient ruin, and thus became the guardian beast of Shifang Zen Monastery."

"At dawn, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva and Di Ting descended upon the Forbidden City and engaged in an earth-shattering battle with Pure World Tathagata, one of the thirteen ancient masters of the Way."

"In this battle, part of the body of the divine beast Di Ting was cut off, the six-foot-tall golden body of Ksitigarbha was shattered, and one of the eyes of Pure World Tathagata was gouged out by Ksitigarbha."

A piece of text appeared in Jiang Xinghuo's Tathagata vision, as if the game's plot was being advanced in real time.

"Listen carefully..."

Jiang Xinghuo walked closer and looked carefully at the stones on the ground. Those bumps and depressions were all ears, and their shapes were exactly the same as the ones he found in the rice field.

Moreover, there were indeed many cutting marks on the surface of the stone. Jiang Xinghuo had an idea and took out all the Di Ting fragments.

Oddly enough, the rock ears seemed to be attracted and automatically stuck to the stone, perfectly matching the cutting marks without any deviation.

At this moment, a light breeze blew by, and the ears on the stone immediately trembled slightly, as if listening to some information.

Jiang Xinghuo pondered for a while, took out an ordinary god-binding talisman, and stuck it on the fragment of Di Ting, to see if he could subdue it.

However, the talisman paper burned to ashes the moment it was pasted on. Jiang Xinghuo raised his eyebrows, thinking that the quality of the talisman paper was too low, so he took out another piece of purple talisman paper.

But the result was still no change, it just lasted a little longer, and it took two seconds to burn into ashes.

Jiang Xinghuo felt a little pain in his heart. 500 incense sticks were gone just like that. It would be nonsense to say that he didn't feel anything.

But he didn't have the black talisman paper at the moment, and the game program was down, so he couldn't enter the niche shop to buy it. He could only wait until he left here.

Jiang Xinghuo thought about it again, and simply used the Five Ghosts Moving Technique to forcibly move the Di Ting fragments into the magic bag.

Fortunately, this thing did not resist and was very quiet after entering the trick bag.

After doing all this, Jiang Xinghuo left the Bandui Village and walked down the mountain along the same path he came from.

When he arrived at Huangquan Village, he found that except for the big banyan tree, everything else had disappeared.

Villages, stone bridges, rice fields...

All disappeared like a dream bubble.

At the same time, Jiang Xinghuo also felt that the scene around him was changing rapidly, and everything in front of his eyes was illusory and hazy. When he regained his sight, he had returned to reality.

It was completely dark outside, and bright moonlight shone into the living room through the window.

Jiang Xinghuo stood up from the sofa, stretched his body, then took out his mobile phone from his pocket and took a look. Everything he experienced in the Half-Ghost Village was displayed in the game.

"It's really easier than ever before..."

Jiang Xinghuo opened the refrigerator and took out a can of iced Coke, feeling the exhilarating pleasure brought by the carbonated drink.

Ever since he learned the secret of the law from the old man in the ancestral hall in Taiping Ancient Town, Jiang Xinghuo's heart has been shrouded in a shadow. Although it did not have any impact on him, it was ultimately a knot that could not be untied.

Now, with all the worries resolved, the shackles in Jiang Xinghuo's heart were also broken. The mental relaxation made him become clear-minded, and his spirit and energy had undergone significant changes.

To put it simply, the decadence and turbidity in your body have disappeared, and are replaced by vigorous vitality.

Afterwards, Jiang Xinghuo took out the yellow paper from the magic bag, turned on the computer, found the high-definition map of the country, and began to compare the maps city by city.

soon.

He found the exact city.

Mountain city, Fengdu.

Jiang Xinghuo compared the yellow paper with the map on the computer; the bird's-eye view of the city was almost exactly the same.

"I should have thought of that earlier..."

Jiang Xinghuo pinched the bridge of his nose. In reality, the only city that could be compared to Fengdu and had a long historical heritage was Fengdu County, located downstream of the mountain city.
