My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 751: Fetal Transformation and the Curse of the Lord of Mount Tai
Jiang Xinghuo merged with the Realm of Life and immediately felt the changes in his body, and the corresponding information flooded into his mind.

"The realm of life, open!"

According to the information in his mind, Jiang Xinghuo made a seal with his right hand and placed it in front of his chest. With a thought, a force immediately spread out from his body.

The dark blue ripples spread out quickly like water waves, covering all the items in the living room.

The next moment, a horrifying scene appeared.

The tables, chairs, benches, and various ornaments on the shelves, which were originally lifeless, suddenly came to life, not only growing facial features, but even limbs and hands.

Except for the strange appearance, he is no different from a living person.

"Mr. Jiang, I will obey your orders!"

"Master, your most loyal servant is at your service!"

"Is this what it feels like to be alive!?"

"Dear master, from now on I will be your most trusted servant!"

Although Jiang Xinghuo was well prepared, he couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling when he saw a room full of strange-looking humanoid creatures.

The Realm of Life is so weird?
Even a broken wooden stool can become a living thing!

But it was not without any gain. The Nuo opera mask sent to him by the old man in Guanzhong also came to life under the influence of the Realm of Life and turned into colorful illusory human figures, standing in the corner wearing Nuo opera masks of various shapes.

When Jiang Xinghuo looked over there, those hazy and illusory human figures immediately bowed.

"Master Yu pays respect to the Lord."

"The God of Grains pays homage to His Majesty!"

"Kitchen God greets the Lord!"

"Feng Bo greets the Lord!"

"The judge greets the Lord!"

"Greetings to the Lord..."

"Greetings to the Lord..."

More than a dozen illusory figures spoke one after another.

These Nuo opera masks were originally just the most common props, and the best ones were of excellent quality, but under the power of the Realm of Life, they have all evolved into new life.

Moreover, these life forms derived from the Realm of Life are absolutely loyal to him and will not do anything against his will. Even if they encounter high-level monsters, these life forms will not betray him.

The most important thing is that Jiang Xinghuo has absolute power over the life and death of these living beings. As long as he thinks about it, they will become dead again.

Jiang Xinghuo had a slight thought in his mind, and those tables, chairs, and benches that had eyes quickly returned to their original appearance. No one could tell that these things were still alive and kicking and shouting not long ago.

Then, he tried another function of the Realm of Life.

The Realm of Life can give new life to dead things, but it can also cause non-living matter to die immediately.

I saw a dark grey ripple spreading out, covering those ordinary tables, chairs and benches. In just a moment, the objects covered by the grey ripples decayed into ashes, as if thousands of years had passed in an instant.

"This realm of life is really terrifying..."

Seeing the scene in front of him, Jiang Xinghuo couldn't help but gasp. No matter how exaggerated the description in the game text was, it couldn't compare to the deep impression he would have after seeing it with his own eyes.

Although this is not a talent that causes harm to living creatures, in some ways it is much more terrifying than that.

Whether in the game or in reality, this ability can be of great use, especially for those dungeons with complex terrain or paradises, where the various traps and ambushes will hardly have any effect on you.

Jiang Xinghuo calmed himself down, and after mastering the abilities of the Realm of Life, he looked at the human figures transformed from the Nuo opera masks.

"From now on, you will stay on guard on the first floor. Unless the enemy arrives, you are not allowed to reveal your presence."

"Follow the Lord's orders!"

More than a dozen Nuo opera gods responded in unison, then transformed into Nuo opera masks again, flew to the wall and hung themselves up.

Jiang Xinghuo then continued to look at the game text. With these dozen Nuo opera gods guarding the store, even if outsiders sneaked in when he was away, these dozen Nuo opera gods would be enough to give them a hard time.

"Taotie corpse (rare material), the corpse left after the death of the Taotie beast in the secular world, which is extremely well preserved. The tendons, bones, flesh, skin and internal organs all have different uses. The skin can be used to make armor, the bones can be used as medicine, the teeth can be used to sharpen weapons, and the internal organs can be used to replace its own organs. It can also be used to transform it into a zombie through the corpse-driving technique."

Jiang Xinghuo threw the Taotie's corpse into the magic bag. The size of this strange beast was beyond his imagination. It was at least ten meters long, and when it stood up, it was as huge as Godzilla.

If you want to split it, it will be a laborious job, so there is no need to rush.

"The body of the Long-eared Dingguang Immortal (rare material). The Long-eared Dingguang Immortal was one of the 12 disciples of the Martial Lord. He possessed the innate magical power of hearing the wind. He died at the foot of Mount Tai for unknown reasons. His body was obtained by the Queen of Mount Tai. You can use it as a material for refining elixirs, or you can return it to the Wulin Alliance. Perhaps you will get some unexpected rewards."

Tsk, Lord Wu's lineage is really plagued by disasters. Among the thirteen Dao masters, except for the extinct lineage of the Yellow River King, Lord Wu may be the one who suffers the most. Not only has he suffered repeated serious injuries, but his disciples have also been basically killed or injured, and no one knows if there are any alive.

As for how to deal with the body, Jiang Xinghuo has already thought about it. After counting everything here, he will send the body back to the Wulin Alliance and then see how Tiger Head Guardian will deal with it.

"The White Bone Soul Chasing Banner (rare item), a magical instrument formed by the condensation of white bones and resentful souls, obtained by the Goddess of Mount Tai in the underworld. There are five evil spirits hidden in the banner, which can chase souls and take lives thousands of miles away according to the breath left behind. However, a large amount of blood food must be offered every time it is used, otherwise the evil spirits in the banner will hurt the owner."

"Do you want to equip this bone banner?"

Jiang Xinghuo thought about it and chose no.

This prop is not quite to his liking. Maybe it will come in handy in the future, so for now, he'd better put it in the magic bag.

"The secret book of the Fetal Transformation and Hundred Transformation Sutra (legendary prop), the supreme inheritance left by the Transformation Immortal, can transform oneself into a god through hundreds of transformations. As long as the practitioner can obtain a trace of their blood, all the monsters and ghosts in the secular world can be transformed into the appearance of the other party. It is not a simple disguise, but a complete change of one's race from the inside out. However, the duration is limited, unless one can obtain the blessing of the Transformation Immortal's ever-changing laws, in order to control the duration of the fetal transformation at will."

"Moreover, this spell can only be practiced by the Exiles. Practitioners of other races cannot get started. After the Transfiguration Immortal disappeared in the secular world, the Transfiguration Sect also disappeared, and this inheritance also completely disappeared in the secular world. I didn't expect that you would get this secret book today." "Do you want to use this item immediately?"

When Jiang Xinghuo read the description in the text, he thought that this was really not easy. He was really lucky to encounter a skill that only players could learn.

"You chose to use this item."

"Learning, please wait..."

"You have successfully mastered the Hundred Transformations of Fetal Transformation."

"Current number of shapeshifters: 0."

The moment the text appeared in the game, Jiang Xinghuo also felt the change in reality, and a large amount of information emerged in his mind.

It took him more than half an hour to absorb the information and grasp the essence of this technique.

However, although this magic can change one's race at will, it requires the blood of the corresponding race as a medium. Otherwise, it can only simply change the appearance, and the disguise can be easily discovered by specific magic and props.

Jiang Xinghuo summoned the Black and White Impermanence in the acupoint, asked for a drop of their blood, and then performed the method of Fetal Transformation and Change of Shape.

The next moment, Jiang Xinghuo felt the changes in himself. His body began to gradually lengthen, and within just a few seconds, he turned into the appearance of Bai Wuchang.

The clothes on his body turned into white mourning robes, and even the breath he exhaled became extremely cold.

But this change only lasted about half a minute, and then Jiang Xinghuo felt a strong sense of weakness and fell on the sofa next to him.

"The consumption is so huge?"

Jiang Xinghuo quickly took out the medicine gourd and took a big gulp. The cool nectar flowed through his body and the feeling of weakness soon disappeared without a trace.

Finally, only the blessing status left by the Immortal of Judgment remained.

"The blessing of the Judge Immortal (permanent state) allows you to use your intuition to determine the opponent's weaknesses and analyze how to achieve the greatest results at the lowest cost."

"The Judgement Immortal is an outlier in the secular world. His favorite thing is to join in the fun, but he never gets involved in any grudges or disputes. When he sees someone fighting, he can tell who is winning and who is losing, as well as their respective strengths and weaknesses with just a glance."

"Do you want to integrate this blessing left by the Immortal of Judgment?"

"You have merged and determined the blessing of the immortal."

"You have gained the power of judgment."

As the last game text flashed by, the map of Queen Taishan came to an end.

Jiang Xinghuo controlled the character to wander around, trying to see if he could trigger a new plot, but found nothing. However, in the game's map options, there was an additional option of Tarzan Hell.

If you just want to enter it, you must first activate the limb splicing method.

"Where are you planning to go next?"

"Will you continue to stay near Mount Tai? Or will you leave Mount Tai and go somewhere else?"

"Be careful. The four-faced god pendant on your chest has triggered the talent of fortune-telling. Not only is its angry face facing forward, but it is also shedding two lines of blood and tears. This means that you will face an unprecedented fatal crisis."

When Jiang Xinghuo read the text description, he thought that maybe the Lord of Mount Tai had come back to cause trouble for him, so he should leave here quickly.

But before he could press the corresponding option, a text suddenly popped up and interrupted the original option interaction.

"You have been cursed by the Lord of Mount Tai."

"The curse of the Lord of Mount Tai (special). This curse will not cause any direct harm to you, but it will make your whereabouts known to all the evil spirits of Mount Tai, who will hunt you down without stopping."

"Please note that Mount Tai is the most important of the thousands of sacred mountains in the secular world, second only to Mount Kunlun, the ancestor of all mountains. All mountain gods worship Mount Tai as their king. If you kill the Queen of Mount Tai, it is equivalent to offending all mountain gods in the secular world, including the mountain ghosts in the Hundred Thousand Mountains who will hunt you down."

"My dear..."

Jiang Xinghuo thought that this was a huge mess. Killing the Queen of Mount Tai was equivalent to provoking all the mountain gods in the secular world, which would make things very troublesome in the future.

But I can't say I regret it. Even if this hadn't happened, as an exile, I wouldn't necessarily be welcomed by the mountain gods.

Besides, he didn't believe that the mountain gods would abandon their own territories and travel thousands of miles to hunt him down just to kill him.

The authority and power of the mountain gods are all in the mountains they control. Only in the mountains can they exert their full strength. If they really leave the mountains, it is hard to say who will kill whom at that time.

However, it is better to leave as soon as possible. A wise man never suffers a loss in front of him. There is no need to fight against potential danger.

"You chose to leave the Taishan area immediately."

"But you were still a step too slow, and were blocked on your way down the mountain by a Taishan God. When the Taishan God saw you, he swung the stone hammer in his hand and attacked you without any hesitation."

"Taishan God is the mountain god of Taishan. The stone hammer in his hand is condensed from the earth's energy. He has the ability to control the earth veins of Taishan. At the same time, he has also obtained the blessing of the Lord of Taishan Mansion. His cultivation has increased more than ten times. In this state, Taishan God can fight even against a strong man at the palm level. You are no match for him at all."

"You were severely injured by the God of Taishan."

"You were buried under the dragon vein of Mount Tai by the God of Mount Tai. It knows that you are an exile rejected by the earthly death. Even if it kills you, it will not have any effect on you. So it wants to trap you in the turbid veins of the earth. In this way, you can neither die nor escape, but can only be trapped underground forever and suffer torture."

"But the Taishan God didn't know that this method might work for other people, but for you who mastered the dragon-raising technique, it was like a fish returning to the sea and a tiger returning to the mountains. You activated the power of the dry land dragon boat and drove the dragon boat along the direction of the dragon vein and earth energy flow. In the blink of an eye, you left the territory of Taishan."

"When the Taishan God discovered something was wrong, you had already disappeared without a trace, leaving only the Taishan God's roar lingering in the air."

Jiang Xinghuo heaved a sigh of relief when he found out of danger. He found the Medicine Fairy Gourd and used it to heal the injuries of his game character. He thought that this was really dangerous. If it weren't for the dragon-raising technique and the land dragon boat, it would have taken some effort to escape.

"Where do you choose to go next?"

Jiang Xinghuo opened the map panel and found the option for the Dragon Gate Land. He controlled the character to steer the land dragon boat and rushed directly to the headquarters of the Wulin Alliance.
