Two days later.

After making proper arrangements for the relocation of the grave, Ning Caichen left Lanruo Temple with Nie Xiaoqian's ashes.

Niu Jun saw him off and watched him leave.

Unexpectedly, the moment Ning Caichen stepped out of the Lanruo Temple grounds, a wisp of mythical power descended and merged into Niu Jun's body.

"Is this the power of mythology?"

Niu Jun carefully sensed a strange power within his body, and felt that this mythical power was extremely mysterious, even more mysterious than the power of fortune and merit in the world.

Niu Jun could understand that the power of fortune and merit was the pure condensation of people's wishes.

However, he couldn't quite understand this mythical power.

but.

for sure.

This mythical power is of great benefit to cultivators.

The moment the power of mythology merged into Niu Jun's body, he clearly sensed that the laws of the heavens of this world were slightly closer to him, and even a trace of the power of fortune began to condense.

in other words.

This mythical power can not only help people comprehend the Great Dao, but also gather fortune and increase one's luck.

These two points alone determine the preciousness of this mythical power; it is a divine object used for cultivation, enlightenment, and the refinement of treasures of destiny.

In fact.

The effects of mythical power are definitely not limited to these.

These two points are merely the most direct manifestations of the power of mythology entering the body. In addition to these two effects, the power of mythology has many other mysteries that Niu Jun needs to study slowly.

At least in the analysis and research of the subject, the power of mythology, in addition to assisting in enlightenment and condensing fortune, also has many other effects such as warding off disasters and praying for blessings, transforming the real and the virtual, and making wishes come true. It is a kind of all-powerful force that is more advanced than fortune and merit.

It's no wonder that powerful beings like Guanyin Bodhisattva and the Old Mother of Lishan were involved in the White Snake myth.

"pity!"

"The story of Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian is merely a tale of the strange and supernatural, not a true myth or legend."

"Even with all my involvement, only a wisp of mythical power fell upon me, unlike Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian, whose bodies were almost completely enveloped by dense mythical power."

Niu Jun carefully comprehended the wisp of mythical power within his body, and said with some regret.

of course.

It's a pity, but it's also a pity.

It's impossible for him to go back and interfere in the White Snake myth.

Or rather, before he had figured out the upper limit of combat power in this universe and thoroughly understood the situation of mythology, he certainly wouldn't rashly participate in mythological stories.

Dripping water wears away a stone; accumulated water forms a deep pool.

While ghost and supernatural tales may yield less mythical power, they are safer.

The immortals and powerful beings of this world look down on it.

Niu Jun did not mind.

After all, he was collecting mythical power not to cultivate with it, but to gather materials for his main body to analyze and study. A little more or less wouldn't have a big impact.

"However, now that the story of A Chinese Ghost Story has ended, where will we go next?"

Niu Jun silently calculated in his mind, using the mythical power within his body and the method of divination to predict the place and time most likely to form a high-level tale of the strange and supernatural in the near future.

"With flowers and wine, spring is everlasting; without candles or lamps, the night is naturally bright."

"Within three days, on Dasong East Road, Changshan County?"

Because the level of mythological power is too high, even though Niu Jun is proficient in the art of fate and cause and effect, he can only barely deduce a general time and place, and cannot accurately deduce the birth of ghosts and strange tales.

This was even the result of Niu Jun combining his knowledge of Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio and other folk tales from his previous life, using these stories as the basis for his deduction.

If we simply use the power of mythology as the cause, we cannot deduce any clues at all.

no way.

The level of mythical power is too high, seemingly exceeding the Taiyi level. Without other clues and causal evidence...

Let alone Niu Jun's mere True Immortal-level Dharma Body, even if his true form were to descend, it would certainly be able to be calculated.

Of course, the events in Changshan County three days later were not the only place Niu Jun had deduced that could potentially give rise to ghost stories. Rather, it was the most recent and of the highest caliber among the many results he had deduced.

"In that case."

"Then let's go to Changshan County on Jingdong Road first!"

After obtaining the result, Niu Jun did not hesitate. With a thought, a celestial cloud condensed beneath his feet, lifting him up to the heavens and heading directly towards the direction of the Great Pine God's capital, Jingdong Prefecture.

……

The Great Pine Dynasty has four capitals, thirty-six circuits, and one hundred and eight prefectures.

The four capitals were Kaifeng Prefecture, Henan Prefecture, Yingtian Prefecture, and Daming Prefecture.

Among them, Kaifeng Prefecture was the Eastern Capital, Henan Prefecture was the Western Capital, Yingtian Prefecture was the Southern Capital, and Daming Prefecture was the Northern Capital.

Changshan County was a county under the jurisdiction of Jingdong Circuit, not far from the Huaihai region. At Niu Jun's incredible speed, traveling from Jinhua Prefecture to Changshan County would only take the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.

On his journey, he passed through Kaifeng, the capital of the Daimatsu dynasty.

Kaifeng Prefecture truly lives up to its reputation as the capital of the Great Pine Divine Dynasty. Humanity and fortune intertwine with the dynastic law, encompassing the entire ancient capital. Ordinary demons and monsters would probably tremble with fear before they even get close.

Even for ghost kings and demon kings, it would be extremely difficult to infiltrate Kaifeng Prefecture; they simply could not escape the surveillance mirror of the Imperial Observatory.

The weird thing is.

According to Niu Jun's observation, a demonic aura lingered in Kaifeng Prefecture.

The demonic energy transformed into a golden centipede, which actually clung to the tail of the golden dragon of fortune of the Great Pine Divine Dynasty, like a bloodsucking worm, constantly draining the national fortune of the Great Pine Divine Dynasty.

The moment Niu Jun saw the golden centipede.

A demon immediately came to mind.

May you be saved from all suffering!

In the film and television version of A Chinese Ghost Story, Pudu Cihang is the reincarnation of a thousand-year-old centipede spirit. He practices Buddhism and has profound Taoist cultivation. He also holds the position of Imperial Preceptor, and his fortune is connected to the dynasty.

In order to transform into a dragon, it devoured the entire royal family and all the officials and soldiers.

Unfortunately.

Good will never prevail over evil.

Pudu Cihang was ultimately defeated by Yan Chixia and others, and died.

to be frank.

This is truly bizarre.

The Great Pine Dynasty has been established for over 1,800 years. Its court is filled with great scholars and martial arts masters, as well as the Demon Suppression Division, which is responsible for slaying demons and monsters, the Imperial Observatory, which monitors the world, and the divine deities conferred by the dynasty.

Now, however, a demon has taken over the position of Imperial Advisor, brazenly sitting on the Golden Dragon of National Fortune and drawing upon the nation's destiny.

Niu Jun refused to believe that such a thing could go unnoticed.

However, it turned out that a rogue cultivator like Yan Chixia was needed to slay demons and monsters.

Such a thing.

It's beyond outrageous.

However, considering the various bizarre actions taken by the Ōmatsu dynasty in normal history.

Niu Jun simply ignored all of that.

In his view, the early demise of the Great Pine Dynasty would be a good thing for the people of the world. It would be the greatest tragedy for the human race to continue to occupy the Nine Provinces.

Therefore, even though Niu Jun saw that Pudu Cihang was absorbing the national fortune of the Great Pine Divine Dynasty, he did not meddle in it.

After all, even the royal family of the Great Pine Dynasty didn't care.

He's just a passerby from out of town; he'd be too busy to meddle in other people's business.
