Chapter 9: Upgrading (Collect)
γTianxiu Point: 1 (5%)γ
β¦β¦
Inside the hamlet.
Zhong Shenxiu occupied a quiet room by himself, looking at the Tianxiu system.
"I've finally made up a little bit."
He looked at his various skills and fell into a deep groan: "Ordinary martial arts and qin, chess, calligraphy and painting can be lost, I actually have two choices of weather skills and Xuanyin Imperial Soul Ginseng Chapter, and I can almost get started with the first weather skills, in order to save my life, let's improve the Xuanyin Imperial Soul Remnant Chapter first......"
That thing in the body has always been Zhong Shenxiu's confidant.
After all, there are only more than ten days left before the next full moon.
And the Blood Moon Wheel, I don't know when, will hang in the sky and kill him.
Zhong Shenxiu made up his mind and used the only bit of Tianxiu on the Xuanyin Imperial Soul Remnant.
A message suddenly appeared in the Tianxiu system:
[Do you consume 1 Tianxiu point to improve the Xuanyin Imperial Soul Remnant Chapter?] γ
"Yes!"
[Xuanyin Imperial Soul Remnant Chapter Upgrade! ] γ
[Xuanyin Imperial Soul Remnant: First Floor]
β¦β¦
"Lingtai square inch, enlighten Xuanguang, the door of Xuanyin, see the ghosts and gods......"
Suddenly, a special feeling appeared in Zhong Shenxiu's heart, which made him suddenly have a lot of understanding about this Dao technique.
He was originally a martial artist, he had not studied Taoism, and he knew little about some Taoist terms.
If it is said that Su Daozhi before is still possible to practice this Dao technique, if he is replaced, the chance will be pitifully small.
But with the help of Tianxiu, Zhong Shenxiu's comprehension of the Xuanyin Imperial Soul Remnant Chapter surpassed Su Daozhi in an instant, and he understood many subtleties of this Dao technique.
"Sure enough...... This is just a method of enslaving ghosts, and generally speaking, when you practice to the first level, you can slightly drive the possessed yin ghosts and release them to harm people...... Pity...... The taboo of this Dao technique is to control the soul that is too strong beyond oneself, and there is even the possibility of being dominated by anti-customers......"
Zhong Shenxiu's face suddenly became very ugly.
The more he comprehended the Dao technique, the more he felt that Su Daozhi could still survive, which was a great luck.
At this time, after the Xuanyin Imperial Soul Remnant Chapter was introduced, his ability to 'see ghosts and gods' suddenly increased tenfold, and he wanted to take a good look at the 'thing' in his body.
Zhong Shen Xiuyi guards the mourning platform, visualizing an inch of Xuanguang, emitting from the mourning platform, penetrating the whole body.
Suddenly, his whole body shook, and all his senses and senses fell into darkness.
β¦β¦
"Your Excellency!"
A voice came into Zhong Shenxiu's ears.
He opened his eyes and found himself in the middle of a hall of splendor.
On the ceiling, a silver chandelier stood full of candles, covered with a thick layer of melted wax.
Beside him, an old man in a tuxedo, gray hair, and the appearance of a butler was bowing and saluting: "Your Excellency, the sacrifice has been prepared, and the sacrifice can begin." β
"Let's go!"
Zhong Shenxiu moved, and seemed to tidy up his collar.
He wore a black woolen gown with two rows of gold buttons hanging down from the collar and an elaborate coat of arms carved on the surface.
'I'...... Can't move......
'No...... It wasn't so much me as I entered the body of this count, and in the posture of a spectator, gazed at his impressive experience? β
Zhong Shenxiu had a slight understanding in his heart.
Although that thing possessed him, in a way, it was also a part of him, and naturally shared some memories.
Look at this...... Su Dao won the jackpot and summoned the ghost of a certain Earl of Hasting? β
Zhong Shenxiu couldn't control this body, so he could only watch him walk through the long stone road, walk out of the castle, and see the knights waiting solemnly in the square in front of him.
These knights wore armor like tin cans, but they moved freely, and it was clear that each of them was an elite.
Even, even Zhong Shenxiu thought to himself, if he was surrounded, he would not be able to get benefits.
The Earl of Hastings took the lead and walked to the Black Mountain, near the Grand Canyon.
The knights were lined up on either side, like the most loyal guards, but they did not approach the crevices of the canyon.
Zhong Shenxiu took the housekeeper and came to the edge of the crack step by step.
The surrounding scenery is similar to later, but it is also different.
The biggest anomaly was a huge altar built on the edge of the crack.
Zhong Shenxiu didn't see this building when he was on patrol, and it was obviously in ruins, and even the wreckage had been cleaned up.
At this time, the altar is still the same, but the casting style is wonderful.
Twisted, asymmetrical, bloody, crazy......
Zhong Shenxiu seemed to see a black altar, and the stones on it were like wriggling flesh, surrounded by mysterious symbols.
In a trance, I forgot everything I saw.
In other words, he only knew that it was a 'conceptual' altar, but he could not describe its specific structure, nor could he rebuild it himself.
"Your Excellency, Earl."
On the altar, a black-robed man was already waiting.
His whole body was shrouded in black robes, and his voice was low and hoarse, with a damp and slippery feeling that gave me goosebumps at the sight of it.
"Consecrate the spirit and flesh to the true God...... Will God bless me, and the entire Felix family, so that we will rule this land for generations to come? β
Zhong Shenxiu heard 'himself' ask like this.
Although I use a foreign language, I just understand the meaning.
"Huh...... Your Excellency, what do you think God is? β
The black-clothed priest raised his head, showing an old face like withered tree bark, his eyes were scarlet, and he actually had vertical pupils, staring at the earl like a snake: "The lord I serve is not a false god, but a real god!" An incomprehensible, indescribable, unimaginable existence, for such an existence, what is it for believers who are not even ants, and some garbage-like sacrifices? β
The Count was not angry, or knew about it, and asked calmly, "So...... What are we holding ceremonies for? β
"Naturally, I want to get His attention!"
"It's a pity that we are just ignorant and humble things, this kind of possibility is not one in ten thousand, but the true God does not answer the prayer, but the divine power can have its own ...... to respond."
The black-robed man replied slowly.
"Is that kind of great being, even if it doesn't pay attention, its own power will feed back to the ritual on its own?"
The Count seemed to have made up his mind: "I will believe in Him, a great being from the Infinite Chaos...... I hope He will bless me and the kingdom I have built so that it will last forever......"
Zhong Shenxiu raised his spirits and knew that the earl was about to start the sacrifice.
But in the next moment, an unprecedented feeling of horror suddenly surged over him, and he knew that if he continued to 'watch', it would inevitably bring great danger.
β¦β¦
"Whirring ......"
Zhong Shenxiu's whole body was shocked, he woke up, looked at his chest, and had a complicated expression: "The first Earl of Hesting?" β
