My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 665: Shang Fang Horse-Slaying Sword

"You found the remains of the plant fairy."

"You saw a piece of rotten vine in the corner of the ghost flower boat. Although it has long lost its vitality, this piece of vine still contains some kind of magic that can ensure that it will not be affected by external forces."

"You observed this piece of withered vine through the vision of Tathagatagarbha and discovered the mysteries and secrets hidden in it."

"These are actually the remains of an alien from secular legends."

"It is said that the true form of this plant immortal is a mountain vine. By chance, it gained spiritual wisdom and transformed into a human form in a very short time."

"But later, for unknown reasons, this once famous plant fairy suddenly disappeared without a trace when its reputation was at its peak."

"No one knows where it went, and no one knows whether it is dead or alive. It just disappeared from the world."

"I didn't expect it to die here. What are you going to do now?"

"Will you choose to collect this rotten vine? Or will you leave it alone and let it rot here?"

"You chose to pick up this rotten, withered vine."

"But the moment you touched the withered vine, you suddenly felt a strange stream of information entering your mind. It turned out to be the last lingering thought of the plant immortal before his death."

"It hopes that whoever finds this withered vine can take it back to the Jiulao Immortal Cave behind Qingcheng Mountain. There is a fountain of youth in that cave. As long as its remains are placed in the fountain, there is hope that it will be resurrected."

"At the same time, you also understand that in this strange information flow, you have glimpsed the reason why this ghost flower ship sank. It turned out that the Huaiyin Dragon King needed a large amount of resentful souls and evil spirits to practice evil magic, so he secretly used means to overturn this ghost flower ship."

"Now, because this ghost flower ship has contained too much evil spirit, it has begun to transform from a dead thing to a living thing, and even has the possibility of turning into a demon."

After Jiang Xinghuo finished reading the description of this game text, he finally understood the cause and effect of the whole thing. He thought to himself that it was this Huaiyin Dragon King again. It was really a case of the top beam being crooked and the bottom beam being crooked.

My father secretly killed so many people in order to practice evil magic, and my son was greedy for beauty and wanted to wipe them out completely. These two people were not good people, and it was not unfair to kill them.

Jiang Xinghuo threw the piece of dry vine into the magic bag. This thing was an unexpected gain, not only because of its own value, but more because of the Nine-Old Immortal Cave.

When you go to explore Sichuan and Shu in the secular world in the future, you can go and take a look. As for what to do with this piece of dead vine, we'll decide when the time comes.

"You continue to explore..."

Jiang Xinghuo controlled the character to continue exploring inside the Ghost Flower Ship, but to his disappointment, he found nothing valuable at all.

He didn't know whether they were all taken away by the Huaiyin Dragon King, or disappeared for other reasons. In short, he didn't find anything.

The only gain was the man-eating mushroom found on the way in.

"Weird..."

Jiang Xinghuo searched again out of disbelief, but still found nothing.

"You have used the Fortune Incense."

"You have activated the Qilin Blessing."

"The power of the Fortune Incense and the Qilin Technique are combined, and your accident triggering rate is temporarily increased."

"You sensed a strong and vague resentment that spread throughout the flower boat without knowing when. Do you want to track down the source of this strong resentment?"

"Tracing in progress, please wait..."

"You came to the depths of the Ghost Flower Ship and found that it was completely embedded in the cave. There was only a broken hole leading to the depths of the cave. The strong resentment came from the cave."

"You stood at the entrance of the cave and looked inside, intending to see what was inside, but unfortunately all you saw was darkness, nothing else."

"Do you want to go in and explore?"

When Jiang Xinghuo saw that there was a follow-up, he naturally couldn't miss it, so he chose yes without thinking too much.

"You walked into the depths of the cave along the entrance. The stove god fire spread rapidly, illuminating the entire cave with unusual brightness."

"You found that the space in this cave is not very big. It is empty and there is nothing there. There is only a corpse that has long been rotten, sitting against the wall at the end of the cave."

"You have discovered the resentful remains of the Water Ghost River God."

"The resentful remains of the Water Ghost River God (legend). The remains of the Water Ghost River God who is still alive after death. His heart is filled with resentment and anger for the betrayal of his best friend. He has been waiting here for someone who can avenge him."

"Your arrival awakened the resentment of the water ghost and river god remaining in the corpse, and you learned what happened that year from his narration."

"The Shuigui River is located in Jiangnan City. It flows from the same source as the Huaiyin River. The river god who controls the Shuigui River is also a veteran. During the reign of the Lord of the Secular World, he was already ordered to control the Shuigui River. Like the Dragon King who controls the Huaiyin waters, he is a secular god appointed by the Lord of the Secular World himself."

"The origin of this water ghost river god is very ordinary. He is the soul of an innocent person who accidentally drowned. Because he often rescued merchants and travelers who fell into the water, he was named the river god by the court."

"Back then, the Water Ghost River God was invited by his good friend, the Huaiyin Dragon King, to get drunk in a flower boat, hoping that he would do him the honor of coming to the party."

"The Water Ghost River God did not suspect anything and happily came to the appointment. He never expected that the Huaiyin Dragon King would secretly kill him. Fortunately, the Water Ghost River God reacted in time and sank the entire ship into an underwater cave, hoping to escape. However, he still failed in the end and died unwillingly in this cave."

"Before dying, the water ghost river god made a promise and curse. If someone can kill the Huaiyin evil dragon for it, then it will give all the wealth and treasures it holds to the other person."

"Exile, you have come here by accident and discovered the resentful remains of the Water Ghost River God. The remnant of the Water Ghost River God separated his body into three tokens to punish those who betrayed him."

"You have obtained a killing knife forged from the remains of the Water Ghost River God, a neurotoxin made from the liver of the Water Ghost River God, and a bottle of the Blood of the Resentful God made from the blood of the Water Ghost River God mixed with evil spirits."

"The River God's Killing Knife (rare item), a knife of punishment made from the bones of the Water Ghost River God. It is blessed by the Water Ghost River God's strong resentment and is specially used to punish treacherous people. It can kill treacherous people with one strike. However, the target's cultivation cannot exceed that of the Water Ghost River God, otherwise the one-strike kill will not work."

"River God Liver Neurotoxin (Rare Item), a deadly toxin extracted from the liver of the Water Ghost River God. It is also blessed by the River God's resentment and is specifically used to punish those who break their promises. It will take effect as long as it touches the skin. Even if the poisoned person does not die immediately, their vitality will be weakened by more than 50%."

"The Blood of the River God (rare item), the River God of Water Ghost provides you with a little protection in the process of punishing the treacherous. It can give you an absolute advantage when facing those shrimp soldiers and crab generals under the command of the Huaiyin Dragon King. You only need to sprinkle the blood of the River God on those shrimp soldiers and crab generals to stimulate the resentment and evil spirit accumulated in their bodies for many years, so that they will turn against you and help you conquer the Huaiyin Dragon King."

"A new map branch has been opened for you, Water Ghost River."

"A new map branch has been opened for you, Huaiyin Dragon Palace." "When you kill the Huaiyin Dragon King, the remnant of the Water Ghost River God will be automatically triggered, and the other party will guide you to his own Water Ghost River."

"What are your plans next?"

"Should we go to Huaiyin Dragon Palace immediately to seek revenge for the Water Ghost and River God?"

"You chose to go to Huaiyin Dragon Mansion."

"On the way, please wait..."

"You left the ghost flower boat and headed towards the Huaiyin Dragon Palace. Before you got close to the Huaiyin Dragon Palace, you saw many black shadows holding weapons wandering around in the water."

"They are most likely the soldiers and guards under the command of Huaiyin Dragon King. Do you want to try to sprinkle a drop of the blood of the resentful god on them?"

"You took out the bottle of Resentful God's Blood from your backpack, carefully poured out a drop, and mixed it into the river water."

"The blood of the resentful god has reacted."

"You saw those black figures holding weapons swimming underwater, and they began to become murderous, as if they remembered the daily oppression of the Huaiyin Dragon King, and immediately turned around and swam towards the Huaiyin Water Palace."

"A great battle soon broke out in the Huaiyin Water Palace. The sailors who were affected by the blood of the resentful god began to massacre the dragon descendants of the Huaiyin Dragon Palace."

"You also took advantage of the chaos to sneak into the Huaiyin Dragon Palace, and ran into the son of the Huaiyin Dragon King who came out to quell the rebellion. You hid in the dark and acted secretly, and quickly killed all the guards."

"By the time Huaiyin Dragon reacted, there was no one around him. He was the only one left."

"It realized that something was wrong, but it was too late. The last thing it saw was a flash of sword light, and then it knew nothing because its head had moved."

"You have killed the Huaiyin Dragon Prince."

"You have brought out the power of the Dragon Slaying Sword. With just one strike, you have killed the Huaiyin Dragon Prince, whose cultivation level far exceeds yours."

"However, for some reason, the incense power on Prince Huaiyin Dragon was also devoured by the Dragon Slaying Sword, leaving you with less than one-tenth of the power."

"You have obtained, Incense +700."

When Jiang Xinghuo saw the text prompt, he couldn't help but feel distressed.

There are 700 incense sticks which is less than one tenth of the total. So the original number of incense sticks on it must be close to 10000 points, right?
I didn’t expect this dragon-slaying sword to be a gold-eating beast!!!

But no matter what, killing the Huaiyin Dragon Son first would be considered as breaking one of the arms of the Huaiyin Dragon King, and Luo Cainu's mission would also be completed.

"You killed the son of the Huaiyin Dragon King. Then, a roar was heard from the depths of the water palace, and a terrifying aura filled the entire water palace."

"The Huaiyin Dragon King sensed that his son had been killed, and he rushed out in a rage, wanting to see who was so bold as to touch his son!!"

"What are you going to do now?"

"The power of the Huaiyin Dragon King is far beyond your ability to resist, so do you plan to face its wrath head-on, or choose to leave here first to avoid it?"

Jiang Xinghuo thought, since he was already here, how could he just leave like that? He had to test the waters first to see what the other party was like.

However, the game text also said that he was no match for the Dragon King, and a head-on confrontation would result in certain death, so he had to think of other ways.

Jiang Xinghuo opened the magic bag, searched inside, and finally took out the bottle of River God Liver Neurotoxin. He also found a few puppets and clicked to use them.

"You placed the River God's Liver Neurotoxin on these puppets, and then manipulated them to attack the Huaiyin Dragon King."

"The Huaiyin Dragon King was mad as hell and swung his claws to tear the puppets to pieces, not realizing that they had been contaminated by the River God's poison."

"By the time it reacted, the river god's poison had already penetrated into its lungs and muscles, but the Huaiyin Dragon King was a dragon after all, and had been blessed by the Golden Law. His cultivation was also unmatched by ordinary monsters, and he was able to suppress the invasion of the river god's poison."

"You took this opportunity to stab the Huaiyin Dragon King with the Killing Knife, but you were blocked by the fragments of the scales on his body. You didn't hurt the Huaiyin Dragon King at all, and you almost had your heart ripped out by his claws."

"Back then, the Water Ghost River God and the Huaiyin Dragon King were equally skilled, with little difference. But times have changed, and the Huaiyin Dragon King's skills are no longer what they were back then. The Killing Blade can no longer cause any effective damage to him."

The killing knife is useless?
Jiang Xinghuo felt a chill in his heart, it seemed that he was going to die!

As soon as this thought flashed through my mind, a death reminder message popped up.

"Your head was smacked into your chest by the Huaiyin Dragon King."

"You are dead."

Jiang Xinghuo was not discouraged, but he was not in a hurry to revive. Instead, he read the text again from beginning to end and captured several key clues.

According to the game text, the Huaiyin Dragon King is a secular god appointed by the Lord of the secular world and has been blessed by the Golden Law, which means that he should be considered an official.

If it's an official...

Jiang Xinghuo silently opened the magic bag and took something out of it.

"The incomplete Shangfang Zhanma Sword (rare item), which was bestowed by the Lord of the Secular World, can kill all monsters and demons. This Shangfang Zhanma Sword once killed a high-ranking official. Later, because the sword was incomplete, the Lord of the Secular World gave it to his descendants. Officials below the fourth rank can be killed with one sword. Officials above the fourth rank need to be activated by the Golden Law to have a chance to kill them."

OK, old loach!!

You'd better be an official of the fourth rank or above, otherwise you will be in big trouble today!

"You have used a scapegoat."

"You came back to life in the Huaiyin Dragon Mansion."

"Do you want to use the Shangfang Zhanma Sword in your hand to attack the Huaiyin Dragon King?"
