My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 689 Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!

This thought arose in Jiang Xinghuo's heart, and he tentatively stretched out his hand towards the empty mirror. His forearm was completely engulfed by the red light, and then he saw a thick arm appear on the other side of the mirror, like a thousand-year-old tree, and the entire palm almost covered a wall.

Moreover, Jiang Xinghuo felt that his strength had also been greatly improved, but his ability to move was not restricted. It seemed that this was the real way to use the mustard magnifying glass. He could amplify his own strength in this way to attack the enemy.

Afterwards, Jiang Xinghuo tentatively stretched out the Evil Star Bite, and the weapon also enlarged hundreds of times, almost as wide as an iron door panel.

Jiang Xinghuo experimented with it for a while and figured out the general usage of the mustard seed magnifying glass before he put it away with a sense of unfulfilled desire.

"The Token of Bliss (excellent item), a token to enter Bliss Houses in various places in the secular world. With this token, no matter which city you are in, you can call the staff of Bliss House to take you into the house for fun."

Jiang Xinghuo looked at the Bliss Order in his hand, and remembered that when he was exploring the Northwest Mining City, he saved the life of a disciple of King Bliss. In order to thank him for saving his life, the other party also gave him a Bliss Order, saying that it was a symbol of the VIP of the secular Bliss House, and it seemed to be of a higher level than this Bliss Order.

He casually threw the thing into his magic bag, planning to wait until he had the chance to enter Paradise Place in the future.

"The Moonlight Cup (excellent item), one of the eight banquet items left by the Zhenxiu Immortal, can transform the power of the moonlight into clear and delicious wine. After drinking it, the five internal organs are cleared, and it can remove heat and toxins. It can also enhance the drinker's magic power and restore the consumed energy and spirit."

"Snack Box (Excellent Item), one of the eight banquet items left by the Zhenxiu Immortal, can generate five different flavors of snacks out of thin air, a blend of northern and southern flavors, both sweet and salty. After eating, you can restore your consumed physical strength and increase the speed of injury recovery.

"Fruit Bamboo Basket (Excellent Item), one of the eight banquet items left by the Zhenxiu Immortal. It can generate seven fruits with different flavors out of thin air. After taking it, it can purify the mind and eliminate desires, eliminate all poisons, and have a chance to see through the mysteries of various illusions."

The last three items left were all auxiliary props, which were the eight banquet items left by the Zhenxiu Immortal. This rich man really knew how to enjoy life. The things he carried with him were all for satisfying his enjoyment and appetite.

After counting these things, Jiang Xinghuo was about to control the character to leave, but he didn't expect that the game text had not ended yet.

"When you checked the small storage bag, you found some words embroidered on it. After reading it, you realized that this spoiled child was actually the son of King Ji Le. He was doted on since birth and was a true spoiled child."

"It happened to have a good talent for cultivation, possessed impressive strength, and made several close friends, one of which was the Huaiyin Water God. But unexpectedly, it was also deceived by a letter and died under the radioactive pollution released by the Radiation Gu."

Another unlucky guy who was deceived.

Jiang Xinghuo is really curious now. What is the situation in the depths of Huaiyin Water Palace? Is the Huaiyin Water God dead or not?

If the Huaiyin Water God is dead, then who wrote the letter to invite these people? If the Huaiyin Water God is not dead, what is its current state?
A puppet being manipulated by someone?
Or do you serve the Lord of Mountains and Rivers wholeheartedly?
Jiang Xinghuo felt that this matter was debatable, because according to the information he had obtained from the Temple of the Great Immortal, the Huaiyin Water God had already died due to exhaustion of his lifespan.

However, the information left by the King of Longhe also showed that the Huaiyin Water God had already surrendered to the True Lord of Mountains and Rivers, and the entire Huaiyin water vein had become the private property of the True Lord of Mountains and Rivers.

Therefore, the life and death of the Huaiyin Water God has become a mystery.

Before entering the depths of the water palace and seeing the truth, there is no way to know what is going on.

Jiang Xinghuo controlled the character to leave the underwater Longhe Village and continued to move along the Huaiyin water vein into the depths of the water palace.

"You continue on your way..."

"You discovered a lot of bone fragments buried in the mud under the water along the way. They were all from creatures of different races. Even the bones of the exiles cursed by the secular world were buried under the mud."

"And judging from the marks left on these skeletons, they all suffered different levels of torture during their lifetime. Their bones have become extremely fragile. The slightest touch would immediately turn them into powder and merge into the freezing cold river water. They cannot be reused a second time."

"Soon, you arrived at the deepest part of Huaiyin Water Palace. A majestic but mostly collapsed bluestone mansion was located in the darkness ahead, like a giant beast waiting for its prey to come to it."

"You feel a deadly threat. Do you still want to go in and find out what's going on?"

Jiang Xinghuo opened the backpack panel and took a look at the scapegoat and the grave cake. After integrating the power of the radiation insect, these props with resurrection functions returned to normal, and under the stimulation of the radiation insect, they also mutated and became much more adaptable to extreme environments.

Then there was nothing to worry about. The scapegoat and a dozen grave cakes gave him nearly twenty chances of resurrection, which were enough for him to wander around the Huaiyin Water Palace.

"You chose to enter Huaiyin Water Palace."

"But the moment you walked into the Huaiyin Water Palace, a cold mechanical tentacle suddenly stretched out from the darkness, and its sharp mechanical claws instantly tore your chest apart, draining all the blood from your body and replacing it with high-concentration mercury, turning you into a living specimen."

"Do you want to activate the Fall Guy effect?"

"You are activated, straw man."

"You used the scarecrow to escape and appeared outside the threshold of Huaiyin Water Palace. Looking at the scarecrow suspended by steel wires in mid-air, the Silver Mother Fairy living in the acupoint in your body suddenly expressed her desire to come out, as if something urgent happened. Do you want to release the Silver Mother Fairy in the acupoint?"

Jiang Xinghuo did not choose to refuse. Since the Silver Mother Fairy had reacted, it meant that it must have sensed something.

"You released the Silver Mother Fairy. The Silver Mother Fairy is a spirit of the essence of silver and mercury. This water palace is filled with a large amount of mercury, which is a rare tonic for the Silver Mother Fairy."

"The Silver Mother Fairy activated her power and the hall in front of her began to shake. The walls around her also broke apart. Columns of mercury shot out and were swallowed into the body of the Silver Mother Fairy."

"The level of Silver Mother Fairy has been increased by +3."

"The Silver Mother Fairy swallowed up all the mercury around it and retreated into your acupoints to fall asleep. It will take some time for it to digest the nutrients in its body. When it wakes up again, its strength will have a qualitative leap, but before that, you will not be able to use the power of the Silver Mother Fairy." "However, although the Silver Mother Fairy's actions just now absorbed the mercury here and destroyed those strange mechanical tentacles, it also alarmed the creatures wandering in this mansion. They are rushing towards you. What do you plan to do next?"

"Will you choose to wait here for those ominous creatures to arrive? Or will you choose to temporarily avoid the limelight and find a place to hide?"

"Of course, you can also find a way to hide yourself in front of those creatures, and then follow them to see if you can reach the core area of ​​the Water Palace?"

The game gave three options. Jiang Xinghuo took a quick look and immediately made his own choice.

Whether waiting here or finding a place to hide, it is not the wisest choice for him, as it has unavoidable flaws and disadvantages. The best way is the third option, hiding his body and following those things. Perhaps he can safely reach the core of Huaiyin Water Palace without alarming other creatures.

Jiang Xinghuo opened the skill panel, found the Dimension Technique, and clicked to use it.

"You have used the dimensional technique."

"Mysterious spatial magic surges out of your body, distorting the space around you and throwing you into another dimension."

"After a while, you saw a large number of water monsters appear in front of you. When they saw the destroyed hall, they showed uncontrollable fear and anger. They frantically searched around, trying to find the culprit behind the destruction of the hall. However, because you cast the Dimension Technique, they could not see your presence even though you were so close to them. They even passed through your body without noticing anything."

"After searching for a while, these monsters returned empty-handed and had to return to the depths of the water palace trembling with fear. Do you want to follow them in secret?"

Here it comes! Jiang Xinghuo's eyes lit up. The reason why he used the dimensional technique was for this option, which could avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble and save a lot of trouble.

"You chose to follow these monsters."

"Because you activated the power of dimensional magic and were in another dimension, you followed these monsters and ghosts without attracting any attention. You had a smooth journey and successfully arrived at the core hall of Huaiyin Water Palace - Water God Palace."

"The Water God Palace is the palace of the Huaiyin Water God, symbolizing the supreme authority of the entire Huaiyin water vein. But now in your eyes, it is gloomy and gloomy. Not only does it not have the slightest divine aura, but it is filled with a strange and weird atmosphere."

"You walked into the Water God Palace and saw the creature sitting on the throne. It turned out to be a rotting corpse wearing a dragon robe. There was a lingering smell of corpse gas around it, and in some places you could even see white bones."

"You have triggered the Tathagata's talent."

"You have discovered the Huaiyin Water God."

"The figure sitting high on the throne in the main hall is the deity of the 800-li Huaiyin River, the Huaiyin Water God of ancient times."

"But this body is not the Dharma body of the Huaiyin Water God. In your Tathagata's vision, this body is the offspring of the Lord of the Secular World, the remains of the Dragon River King after his death."

"The Huaiyin Water God somehow abandoned his old body and took over the body of the Dragon River King, using it to survive in this world."

"Unfortunately, as the descendant of the Lord of the Secular World, the Dragon River King has been blessed and protected by the Golden Law. Even his body after death cannot be desecrated. So although the Huaiyin Water God is alive now, he is having a hard time and cannot move freely. He can only stay in this hall like a puppet."

"Moreover, every time it uses the power of the Water God, the body of the Dragon River King will rot a little bit, until the day when the body is completely rotten, the Huaiyin Water God will completely disappear into thin air."

"It is precisely because of this that the Huaiyin Water God wants to rely on the power of outsiders to obtain the things that King Longhe left behind in the ancestral hall, hoping to use that thing to repair King Longhe's body, gain the ability to move freely, and at the same time, master the power to resist the Mountain and River Sacrifice Master."

"At the beginning, Longhe King sought out Shanhejishi Zhenjun for revenge. With the help of the Radiation Gu, which had not yet been fully perfected, he wanted to drag Shanhejishi Zhenjun to death together. Although he did not get what he wanted in the end, the terrifying radiation of the Radiation Gu also caused great harm to Shanhejishi Zhenjun, who had to leave the Huaiyin water vein to find a place to heal his wounds."

"What are you going to do now?"

"Although the Huaiyin Water God cannot move freely now and has considerable restrictions on the use of his authority, if he finds you sneaking in here, he will surely attack and kill you without hesitation. With your Taoism and luck, you are simply unable to compete with him."

"Do you want to choose to leave here?"

"The Golden Armored Zombie only asked you to find out the truth. He didn't force you to kill him."

"So, there is no need for you to take the risk to kill the Huaiyin Water God. Of course, if you can kill the Huaiyin Water God, the incense income and rewards you will get will certainly be considerable."

Jiang Xinghuo looked at the description of the game text, then opened the trick bag and flipped through it.

The Huaiyin Water God now occupies the body of the Longhe King. So can it be understood that if I want to kill the Huaiyin Water God, it is equivalent to wanting to kill the Longhe King?

If this is true, then this might actually be possible, because he has a prop in his hand that happens to be the nemesis of royal relatives like King Longhe.

"King-King Killing Dagger (special item). This dagger is stained with the blood of the Lord of the Secular World. The material itself is not special, but the blood of the Lord of the Secular World has endowed this dagger with the ability to kill the King of the Secular World. It has a 50% chance of causing a critical hit or a fatal effect on the descendants of the Lord of the Secular World or the Dragon Bloodline. The strength of other people injured by this dagger will also be reduced by 30%. Duration: 30 minutes."

This item was found in the Yellow River King City. It has a 50% chance of killing the descendants of the Lord of the World and other Dragon Bloodlines. (Chapter 405)
The so-called Dragon's Bloodline actually refers to the descendants of the emperor, the royal family, and so on. As long as they have the blood of the lord of the secular world in their bodies, even if it has been diluted a lot, they can still be called Dragon's Bloodline.

As the son of the Lord of the Secular World, King Longhe can be said to be a legitimate descendant of the Dragon. This item should be able to play some role.
