My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 580 Cemetery
"The Taoist's avatar, the Immortal Transfiguration (legend). Taoist was a Taoist master from ancient times in the secular world, and was familiar with all the Taoist secrets and inheritances. This Immortal Transfiguration was left behind when he was practicing the Immortal Scriptures. It contains the power of the Eight Phases of the World. However, for some unknown reason, the Eight Phases of Power in this Immortal Transfiguration is now on the verge of being out of control."

"When the power of the Eight Phases gets completely out of control, this immortal body will be torn to pieces by those terrifying forces and disappear into thin air."

"Do you want to try to get closer to this immortal body? Maybe there is a chance to inherit the power of the Eight Phases."

"Of course, you must also be fully prepared mentally, because the closer you get to this immortal body, the more violent the eight-phase power will be. It will be easy to drag you into it and shatter you to pieces."

"So, do you want to get close to this immortal transformation left behind by Daojun?"

Jiang Xinghuo didn't think too much about it. After seeing the game option pop up, he immediately controlled the character to walk over. He had been dying and living again for the past few days, just to find the source of the Eight Phases of Power. Now that he finally found it, how could he let go of this opportunity.

"You chose to get close to the immortal metamorphosis left by Daojun."

"The eight-phase power that permeated the surroundings seemed to have sensed your thoughts, and gathered from all directions like a tide. Even though you have made sufficient preparations, your personal strength still seems so vulnerable under this terrifying power of heaven and earth. Your body turned into flying ash in just an instant and dissipated into the surrounding void."

"However, you discovered that your consciousness did not dissipate with the disappearance of your body. Instead, it floated around in a strange perspective and gradually merged with the eight-phase power until it became indistinguishable from the other. At the same time, you discovered that the immortal body left by Daojun suddenly opened its eyes, slowly raised its right hand, and drew a strange talisman seal on its body. Then you knew nothing."

"You are dead."

"Do you want to trigger the innate ability of the reincarnation doll?"

Jiang Xinghuo looked at the content of the game text, and seemed to have thought of something. He directly activated the talent of the reincarnation puppet and came back to life on the spot.

The reincarnation doll given to him by Lord Samsara really helped him a lot. If he didn't have this reincarnation doll, he would probably still be wandering outside, unable to get close to discover the Taoist's immortal transformation. It would also take much more time, and it would be impossible for him to find the source of power in the Eight Phases World within just a few days.

"You used it, the reincarnation doll."

"The reincarnation puppet has taken effect."

"You regrouped and came back to life on the spot."

"Current number of uses remaining: 1/3."

"You are only a few steps away from Daojun Xiantu. What are you going to do next? Are you going to go to Daojun Xiantu immediately, or are you going to stay where you are and wait and see what happens?"

The game gives two options: go to the side of the immortal transformation and stay where you are.

Jiang Xinghuo made his decision without even thinking about it, immediately controlled the game character, and quickly came to the side of the immortal transformation.

"You came to the side of Daojun's immortal body, and the eight-phase power from all around crushed you again. You tried your best to resist for a short moment. During this moment, you also drew the talisman you saw just now on Daojun's immortal body with blood as ink."

"And at the moment the talisman was completed, your body was once again torn apart by the power of the Eight Phases. However, before you lost consciousness, you discovered that Daojun's immortal transformation was emitting rays of light. All the power of the Eight Phases that permeated the Eight Phases World returned to Daojun's immortal transformation like thousands of rivers returning to the sea."

"You are dead."

"Do you want to activate the talent of the reincarnation doll?"

Jiang Xinghuo used up his last chance of resurrection today and woke up again from the Eight Phase World.

"You have been resurrected."

"Current remaining times: 0/3."

"You opened your eyes again in the Eight Phases World, but it was different from what you saw before. The Eight Phases World is now dead silent. The violent and chaotic Eight Phases Power has long disappeared without a trace. Even the Taoist Immortal Transformation has disappeared. In its place is a Bagua diagram carved from stone."

"Do you want to pick up the Bagua map?"

Jiang Xinghuo couldn't wait to choose yes.

Been busy for so long.

It's finally time to reap the rewards.

"You walked over and picked up the Bagua map. The moment you picked it up, it dissolved into your bloodline genes."

"You have obtained the Xiantian Bagua Diagram."

"The Xiantian Bagua Diagram (epic relic), the Xiantian Bagua Diagram formed by Daojun by condensing the power of the eight phases. After being integrated with his own bloodline genes, he can control the power of the eight phases such as heaven and earth, wind and thunder, and has a natural affinity with the innate eight phases."

Jiang Xinghuo blinked and read the game text again. He never thought that Daojun's immortal transformation would become a heritage relic! !

Doesn't that mean that I now have two relics?
Tathagatagarbha and the Xiantian Bagua Diagram!!

He originally thought that this world of eight phases was a method of cultivation, but he didn't expect that the Taoist Master would actually turn it into a relic and pass it on to him.

This way, he could save time on training, and after fusing the relics, he could use the power at will.

Moreover, judging from the description in the game text, although Daojun left behind this immortal transformation, his original body did not die. Otherwise, how could an unconscious immortal transformation tell him about the talisman and curse?

After Jiang Xinghuo integrated the innate Bagua diagram, he began to explore the changes in his body. He stretched out his right hand, and immediately saw an illusory Bagua diagram appear in the palm of his hand. Above each hexagram, a corresponding world was floating.

Heaven, earth, wind, thunder, water, fire, mountains, and lakes.

The eight phases circulate endlessly. They can merge into one in an instant, or they can circulate and alternately evolve.

In addition, Jiang Xinghuo discovered that this inherited relic of the Xiantian Bagua could also enhance his other magic techniques, or in other words, it could be completely integrated into one.

The Thunder Ancestor's Treasure Scroll can correspond to the power of thunder among the eight phases, the Wind Control Record can correspond to the power of wind among the eight phases, the Kitchen God's Fire can correspond to the power of fire among the eight phases, the Dragon-Raising Technique can correspond to the power of heaven and earth respectively, the Heavenly Thunder, Earth and Sea can correspond to the power of thunder and water, and even the power of the marsh can be transformed through other forces.

Jiang Xinghuo could feel that these magic techniques in his body were gradually merging with the innate Bagua, until they became indistinguishable and completely evolved into pure Eight Phases power.

Coincidence?
Or did Daojun do it on purpose? ?
If it was a coincidence, then it was too coincidental. All of his spells could basically correspond to the power of the Eight Phases.

However, according to Taoism, the evolution of the innate Bagua is Tai Chi, Liang Yi, Si Xiang, and finally it becomes Bagua.

No matter how the world changes, it is ultimately unable to escape the constraints of the Eight Phases.

Maybe it's really a coincidence.

Let's take a step back. Even if it's not a coincidence.

Daojun did it on purpose, so it won't do any harm to him, at least not so far.

There is a high probability that it will not happen in the future.

Otherwise, with Daojun's status and cultivation, it would be too easy for him to kill me. Even if he cannot affect the original body on Earth, he can still control the game character as he wants.

While Jiang Xinghuo was thinking about these things, he saw a new text message pop up on the screen.

"After you merged with the Xiantian Bagua, you discovered that the space around you was collapsing, like shattered glass, covered with terrifying spider-web-like cracks."

"The next moment, the Eight Phases World shattered and turned into a piece of cave debris floating in the air. Do you want to go over and pick it up?"

"Dongtian Fragment (rare material), a fragment left after a Dongtian blessed land was shattered. It can be integrated with the space in the real world, or it can be integrated with your magic bag."

"What are you going to choose next?"

"Will you choose to integrate this piece of cave fragment into your Tai Sui race's magic bag? Or will you choose to keep it and use it elsewhere in the future?"

Jiang Xinghuo thought about it and felt that the space in the magic bag was enough for the moment. There was no need to expand the internal space. It would be better to use it in the real world. With the piece of cave fragment in his hand, he should be able to open up a large winter space.

"You chose to keep this piece of the cave."

"What are your options next?"

"You have now cracked the secret of the Eight Phases World and obtained the most precious treasure here. Next, do you plan to stop while you are ahead and explore other places in the ancient building? Or continue to explore other rooms?"

Jiang Xinghuo looked at the options on the screen and noticed that the answer given by the game text was to continue exploring other rooms and go to other places in the Yinshan Ancient Tower.

There is no option to leave the Yinshan Ancient Tower.

This meant that he could only wander around in the Yinshan Ancient Tower. Before he found the key mentioned in the game text, he had no way to leave even if he wanted to.

If that’s the case, then there’s nothing more to say, and Jiang Xinghuo chose to continue exploring.

You only have one life left today, so don’t mess around with other places. Let’s explore the sub-map here first.

"You walked out of the room in the Eight Phases World and looked back. You saw that the door was tightly closed and the Eight Diagrams Mirror on it gradually turned to stone and could no longer be opened."

"Please select the room you want to explore next:"

Jiang Xinghuo began to try one by one, but except for the first two doors, when he controlled the character to go to other doors and wanted to push them open to explore, he found that those doors could not be opened to him at all. The seven treasure keys in the magic bag did not work, and external force could not force the door open, as if they were determined to keep him out.

Finally, only the door of the third room from the left could be opened to him.

Jiang Xinghuo narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking, is this intentional? Or is there a limit to the number of times the door can be opened? ?
If he did not choose the two doors outside at first, but chose other doors, would the corresponding rooms be open to him?
And now, with only this last room left, it is hard not to have wild thoughts.

Considering the warnings from Lord Lunhui and the owner of Liuhe Pavilion, it is obvious that the place behind this door is not a tourist attraction.

He even suspected that the cemetery mentioned by Chishiro in his suicide note was behind this door.

But he had no other choice now. He could either enter this door and find out what was inside, or leave here and go back to the first floor and explore the second floor on the other side.

However, according to Jiang Xinghuo's understanding of the game, even if he went to explore the other side, there was a high probability that he would encounter this door.

Instead of wasting time, it is better to go all the way and rush forward.

"You have made up your mind to enter this door, but the Turtle Spirit Seven Treasures Sword on your waist is ready to move, as if to stop you. Do you want to enter?"

Jiang Xinghuo chose yes without hesitation.

Now that you have made up your mind.

Then there is no need to procrastinate any longer.

"You pushed open the dusty door and walked into the room behind it. A dead silence immediately hit you, but everything was dark in front of you. You couldn't see anything. After a while, you felt the darkness gradually dissipate, and it was replaced by a gray world. As far as you can see, there are hundreds of dry and cracked graves. On some of the graves, there are still many broken limbs exposed, as if they are unwilling to be buried in the graves and want to struggle to jump out with all their strength, but in the end they are firmly bound by the soil of the graves."

"In addition, you also found a lot of cold, dark yellow rivers flowing slowly between these scattered graves, as if countless wronged souls and evil ghosts were wailing in them."

"You have triggered the Tathagata's talent."

"You discovered a large amount of grave soil that is more than a thousand years old, and a branch of the Styx under the Sanzu River."

Seeing this, Jiang Xinghuo's eyes suddenly lit up. The soil from a grave over a thousand years old still contained the water of the Styx? ?

Isn't this the material for creating the Six Paths of Reincarnation Dharma Image? ?

It really fits the saying that you can search for something everywhere but never find it, but when you get it, it’s effortless.

Not to mention anything else, just relying on these two things, I would not lose anything even if I died immediately.

"Do you want to collect these two materials?"

Jiang Xinghuo immediately chose yes.

"You have obtained the thousand-year-old grave soil of the underworld."

"You have obtained the water of the River Styx in the underworld."

"Thousand-year-old grave soil (rare material). The grave soil from the underworld has existed for at least two thousand years and contains a very heavy aura of death. A tomb made of this grave soil can directly put a ghost king-level being into a deep sleep."

When Jiang Xinghuo saw the description in the text, he thought that this was a good thing. It could not only be used as a material for casting Dharma images, but also be used to deal with some evil spirits. He had to get more of it, as the space in the magic bag was large enough.

So, Jiang Xinghuo controlled the game character to dig up a lot of grave soil, far exceeding the amount needed to cast the Six Paths of Reincarnation Dharma Image.
