After saying that, Tianyan continued, "The curse of the Grim Reaper will cause the host to be filled with resentment. When the Grim Reaper cannot face the rules of life and death and makes a curse on the dead, then the Grim Reaper will be punished."
"The blessing of death is the opposite. Death wanders between life and death. He understands the cycle of life and death. Making a blessing will enhance the power of death."
After hearing those two sentences, Jiang Yuan silently took out a rose left by Ning Yanlan from his storage ring and threw it on the bald man's corpse.
"We'll be reborn into a better family in our next life. We're not wrong; the fault lies with this era!" Jiang Yuan said this solemnly.
Ten days ago, they were still considered successors to socialism, and there was no question of them being mortal enemies.
As the rose petals fell, a halo appeared in the bald man's mind and then entered Jiang Yuan's mind in the blink of an eye.
"Includes the mark of the deceased: three."
"Activating the Mark of the Dead ability—Petrification!"
Jiang Yuan waited a few seconds. The closest pursuers were no more than fifty meters away, but he smiled.
Yes, the Hand of Death succeeded; he gained the bald giant's talent, the petrification ability from earlier.
As for why three marks of the dead were included, it's likely that the bald man's two henchmen were 'moved' and thought he had given them a blessing. In reality, whether or not he received a blessing was irrelevant to Jiang Yuan; he only valued the abilities contained within the marks of the dead.
However, he was still very dedicated, and his blessings came from the bottom of his heart; otherwise, he would not have been able to complete the deal with the Grim Reaper.
"Follow me, I want to see just how many people are eyeing my opportunity!" Jiang Yuan turned back and gave the group a provocative smile before running off again.
He had just found quite a few Holy Spirit Stones on the group, ranging from first to fifth rank, and he collected them without hesitation.
Jiang Yuan, having retrieved the Heavenly Soul Child, sped off, and this unexpected opportunity in the Southern City clearly alarmed countless people.
The defenses of the South City have become ineffective, with tens of thousands of people pouring in from the refugee camps alone. Combined with other forces within the South City, the number has exceeded 50,000, all for that one unique cultivation technique.
Among them were many people Jiang Yuan knew: the South City Camp, the Heaven and Earth Society, the Ji family, and even the hunters who hadn't shown up yet joined the carnival. Everyone's goal was surprisingly the same: the unique cultivation technique, the only technique that could lead to god-level cultivation.
God, that is an untouchable word.
Most people on Earth believe that catastrophes are the work of God, and that as long as one is associated with God, one has a strange sense of security in this world. This sense of security is ethereal, but it is real.
"Look! The Rose Assassin is fleeing towards the warlord of the South City!"
Some exclaimed that the citywide manhunt had been going on for an hour, but no one could keep up with Jiang Yuan's speed.
This one hour also earned Jiang Yuan a new title—the Rose Killer.
The reason this title is accepted by a group of people is simple: the Rose Killer leaves a rose on the body and at the crime scene after each murder.
As a result, when the whole city was chasing Jiang Yuan, everyone agreed on one thing: only a pervert would kill someone and then give them roses. This behavior became an excuse for those people to "uphold justice," as if their actions of hunting down the only person who possessed the unique skill were full of righteousness.
When one person makes a mistake, it's called a mistake. But when ten thousand people make mistakes, right and wrong become meaningless, because no matter how wrong they are, they are all right.
Jiang Yuan was unaware of this title; if he had, he would have found it both laughable and absurd.
The reason he left the roses for the first time was because he really had no other way to make a wish for death, and fresh flowers were the best choice. He really had no other choice. Ning Yanlan had painstakingly left him ninety-nine roses, and he felt heartbroken every time he threw one away!
As for the second time, it was because the Heavenly Eye told him that once the number of the deceased's marks reached a certain amount, the Hand of Death would undergo special changes, which is why Jiang Yuan would throw a few roses out from time to time.
His only talent was petrification, because such talents were extremely rare, so rare that only one in a hundred people possessed one, and most of these talents were useless and worthless.
Because of its rarity, even after killing twenty or thirty people, he still only mastered the petrification talent.
At this moment, Jiang Yuan hesitated in front of a narrow alley he had to pass through.
The Sky Eye's detection told him there was an ambush ahead, but he couldn't stop, because if he did, the frenzied 'wolf pack' behind him would tear him apart.
"Wind Step!" Jiang Yuan stepped forward, intending to cross the alley directly.
"Charge! Kill this guy!"
Suddenly, dozens of people jumped out from both sides of the alley.
"The camp?" Jiang Yuan stopped in his tracks as he looked at the several familiar figures inside.
"Huh, it's you?" One of the people stepped out from the group, looking surprised.
"Captain Zhu, are you planning to steal my cultivation technique?" Jiang Yuan's tone was not friendly, because he had seen too many wicked people since he arrived, and almost everyone he encountered wanted to kill him.
That's right, this group of people were from the camp. Not only were there members of the Gale Squad, but also Fang Rong and Xue Yuanzheng, whom we had met before. However, Li Tiegen, the owner of the camp, was not present.
"Brother Jiang Yuan, you wouldn't happen to be the one who obtained the unique cultivation technique, would you?" Zhu Penghai asked in shock.
Jiang Yuan didn't answer, but looked at the group and said, "If you want to take what's in my hands, then be prepared to pay with your life!"
"So it was you!" Xue Yuanzheng stepped forward and sneered, "I knew from the beginning that you were not just a simple ancient martial artist, but I didn't expect you to have such luck as to be favored by the unique cultivation technique."
"If you want to make a move, then do it!" Jiang Yuan said coldly.
The people in the camp in Nancheng were very familiar with this place, which is why they were able to set up a trap on this road in advance. This is a necessary route, and Jiang Yuan must fight.
"Our Gale Squad is withdrawing!" Zhu Penghai shouted without hesitation.
"Coward!" Xue Yuanzheng sneered.
"Xue Yuanzheng, do you still think it was just a few days ago?" Zhu Penghai deliberately pointed the finger at Xue Yuanzheng.
"What, aren't you a coward?" Xue Yuanzheng retorted, not to be outdone.
"Is that so?" Zhu Penghai took out his weapon and said, "Brothers, let's show Yuan Zheng's team who the cowards really are today!"
"Yeah, this bunch of trash dares to laugh at our Gale Squad. They're really asking for it!" Qian Kai also stood up. He didn't target Jiang Yuan either, but instead started cursing at Xue Yuanzheng and his group.
"Then let's bring it on! Resilience Aura!" Xiang Yeyun demonstrated his stance through his actions.
Jiang Yuan called out to the group, "Thank you!"
"Let's take them down!" Zhu Penghai and Jiang Yuan exchanged a smile, and then the group started fighting with Xue Yuanzheng and his men.
They had been through thick and thin together, and the Gale Squad was very wary of Jiang Yuan's strength; he was an unfathomable master.
"I'll treat you to drinks next time!"
Jiang Yuan was about to leave when a flash of light appeared.
"They told you to leave, but I didn't!"
