Chapter 239: After all, I suffered from lack of education

Li Jianke (the swordsman with the surname Li) was silent for a while.

Although there is an essential difference between the life source of the Golden Body Realm and the Heavenly Man Realm, Gu Xingzhou has given half of his life to him at this moment. The consumption this time is not so fatal, and he can just go back and recuperate for a while.

Ji Ruo was also shocked by Gu Xingzhou's generosity. He gave half of a good life just like that...

Although Li Jianke can indeed afford this gift, his life belongs to Gu Xingzhou!

He gave it without hesitation...

Now that I think about it, the reason why Gu Xingzhou was so angry just now was mainly to provoke Li Jianke and make Li Jianke fight him, and then he could naturally use the secret method to give half of his life to Li Jianke.

Otherwise, with Li Jianke's pride, he probably wouldn't accept what Gu Xingzhou said.

Gu Xingzhou stood up and stretched his stiff arms and legs, saying, "I'm not used to these old arms and legs. Did you just fight me in this state? Tsk, it feels a bit unfair. Don't say I took advantage of you. Let's call that game a draw."

Li Jianke was silent for a while, then said, "What martial arts? Teach me."

"What do you want?"

"I'll give you my life back."

Gu Xingzhou's eyes widened: "You are not sick, right? Give it back to me, how long can you hold on? Do you really want to die?"

"I have devoted my life to the art of swordsmanship. Apart from the sword in my hand, I have nothing. I do not want to accept favors from others. This favor is too precious. I cannot repay it."

Gu Xingzhou said nonchalantly: "If you can't pay it back, don't pay it back. It's just half a life, it's not a big deal."

"No, I must return it!" Li Jianke was very determined: "Teach me martial arts, and I will return it to you now!"

“I won’t teach you.” Gu Xingzhou pinched his nose, snapped his fingers, and said contemptuously: “You have already used up half of your life. If you turn it back, it will be third-hand, which is worse than second-hand.

I have a germophobia. I am disgusted by things that others have used, and I don’t want things that others don’t want. ”

Li Jianke's face changed: "Can you please not be so disgusting when you talk? Second-hand or third-hand, I find it disgusting too!"

"Hahahaha! Anyway, just bear with it. I'm giving you half of my life!"

Li Jianke: “…”

Now, my life has been given to me. I have accepted it even if I don’t want to. I won’t go back…

Ji Ruo looked at the two middle-aged men sitting on the ground arguing, and he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

At this time, the white cat, which had accumulated some divine power, suddenly poked half of its head out from the ground and looked at Gu Xingzhou with some caution. Seeing that he had suddenly aged so much, it was slightly startled, and then said: "Master, those souls are about to be resurrected. What should we do now?"

Li Jianke was stunned: "With your divine power, I should have killed them, right?"

The white cat said shyly: "My divine power can indeed make their souls fly away, but there are too many of them, and I don't have that much divine power... Because of the invasion of the rules of the underworld, this place has an extremely dense yin energy, which is very beneficial to those ghosts. If it weren't for your sword will constantly hurting them, they would have been resurrected long ago.

Now that your sword power has been worn down a lot, it’s time for them to revive…”

Jianke and Gu Xingzhou frowned. Even though they had already applied for support from above, it was impossible for the support to arrive so quickly.

Even if we get there, Daxia currently has no effective means to deal with souls...

The incense god has some power, but currently there is only one known incense god, the white cat, and his power is limited, so he can't kill many ghosts.

It is too late to give birth to another incense god... Even if it is in time, it seems that only demons can adapt to the rules of the incense god. Where can they find demons that are friendly to humans...

Moreover, not only must it be friendly, but it must also be known and well-liked by most people. This kind of demon—

Um?

It seems to be true!

Li Jianke and Gu Xingzhou looked at the towering tree in the center of Babao Village almost at the same time.

The Shanshenmu perfectly meets all the requirements!

"Ji Ruo, the duties and abilities of the God of Incense and Fire come from the believers' longing and expectations for him, right?"

"It seems so..." Ji Ruo scratched his head: "I'm not sure either, because when Dabai first became the incense god, we didn't have any expectations for him... The only thing we had was that Uncle Chen Mo said he had never met Luo Xi's sister, and he felt it was a bit of a pity."

"Chen Mo?" The swordsman was stunned for a moment: "Who is that?"

A dialogue box popped up above Ji Ruo's head: "It's me, I am Chen Mo."

For Chen Mo now, the word "Mo" is still a bit too complicated - when he wrote his name before, Luo Xi helped him write it...

Swordsman: “?”

Gu Xingzhou explained: "Chen Mo is Chen Zai's inner demon. He used to stay in the First Martial Arts School, but was later brought out by Ji Ruo. Now he is Ji Ruo's hair dye."

"???"

What the hell is this hair dye!

Gu Xingzhou coughed dryly and said, "In short, although there were not many people when you worshipped Dabai as the god of incense, they all had their own characteristics.

At present,

Rosie is the younger sister of Baymax's twin, with the same blood and soul.

Chen Mo is the inner demon of Chen Zai, a warrior at the peak of the Heavenly Man Realm, and this inner demon was born under the influence of a fantasy creation.

Then it is you who sincerely worship with a pure heart..."

To be honest, Gu Xingzhou is worthy of being the former Director of the Education Department. He is quite good at summarizing and organizing information.

Gu Xingzhou touched his chin and said, "These conditions are not impossible to replicate... The Mountain God Tree has enabled Daxia to realize the freedom of low-level spiritual medicines, and it is also an 'artificially cultivated' four-star peak plant-type monster. It now has a high reputation in Daxia. Once it successfully becomes the God of Incense, it should have a lot of divine power..."

Li Jianke carefully sensed it, shook his head slightly, and said: "Let's not talk about whether these conditions you summarized are useful or not. Even if they are useful, it's too late.

The swords I just swung out have almost been worn out."

"So fast?!"

Li Jianke stood up and said, "Yeah, I didn't expect that these Netherworld demons are so damn hard to kill... I think your half life is enough for me to chop one or two more of them with my sword."

Having said that, Li Jianke began to adjust his state, intending to burn his life once again.

"Hey, Uncle Li, don't be so anxious!" Ji Ruo held Li Jianke and said, "If it's just those souls, I think I can deal with them. You just take a rest first."

"What can we do?"

"Anyway, just wait and see. Well, I need a little help."

Ji Ruo said, turning around and shouting, "Aunt Jinglan, can you please help me?"

"Hey! Here they come!"

Jinglan jogged over.

Ji Ruo: “?”

Why doesn't she fly?

"Aunt Jinglan, are you injured?"

"No, I was hit by that big eye before and suffered some minor injuries. I just asked the old tree for some fruits and I am healed now."

Ji Ruo asked in confusion: "Then why don't you fly over here?"

Jing Lan glanced at Li Jianke cautiously and said, "I also want to run occasionally..."

A dialogue box popped up above Ji Ruo's head, and Chen Mo said, "I understand this. She must be scared."

“…”

Ji Ruo coughed dryly and said, "Anyway, I need you to help me..."

Ji Ruo stated his needs again.

Jing Lan immediately shook her head like a wave drum: "No, no, I don't dare to fly in your Daxia anymore. I want to go home."

"???"

Ji Ruo didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he had to do this. In Ji Ruo's conception, the invention was still missing a lot of parts... Although it could be made now, it probably wouldn't be very powerful after it was made -

So if you want to wait,

Ji Ruo thought for a moment and said, "How about this, Aunt Jinglan, you take Uncle Gu with you. With him around, you shouldn't be intercepted or attacked by warriors from other places... Oh, and Dabai should go with you, too. Dabai can communicate with the holy statue, so it will be easier for him to retrieve the fragments."

When Bai Mao heard that she was going to act with Gu Xingzhou, her first reaction was to refuse. But before she could say anything, she saw a long string of "please" rolling in Ji Ruo's eyes...

There was no other choice, the white cat gritted its teeth and nodded heavily.

Jing Lan was still hesitant, Li Jianke smiled and said, "Go ahead, you have already been on the white list of our Great Xia, almost all high-level warriors know you, and the air defense system on the border will not intercept you... With Lao Gu accompanying you, you don't have to worry about scaring anyone. Although he has resigned, his identity is still useful."

After hesitating for a moment, Jing Lan glanced at the sword in Li's hand, then she made up her mind and said, "Okay, I'll go!"

Ji Ruo smiled and said, "Then please trigger it as soon as possible, Aunt Jinglan. There is no time to delay any longer."

"good!"

The white cat jumped onto Jinglan's back and Jinglan spread his wings. The two demons and Ji Ruo looked at Gu Xingzhou, waiting for him to get on.

Gu Xingzhou was confused: "Wait, no, you are leaving now? Did I agree?"

Ji Ruo spread his hands and said, "Uncle Gu, can you think of any other solution besides this one? Or should we let Uncle Li continue to fight?"

"How can you talk like that?" Gu Xingzhou said unhappily, "I can fight, too!"

Ji Ruo said helplessly: "Uncle Gu, just help me, okay?"

"It's not that I don't want to help you, Ji Ruo." Gu Xingzhou said, "Old man Li is half disabled now, and the reinforcements haven't arrived yet. If Jing Lan and I leave again, what can you do to stop those dead souls from coming back to life?"

Ji Ruo thought for a moment and said, "Indeed, this is a problem, but it is not difficult... Aunt Jinglan, your star tribulation is still there, right?"

Jing Lan was stunned for a moment: "What do you mean it still exists?"

"That's right. When you leave later, lend me Xingjie..." Ji Ruo scratched his head and said, "I just talked to Brother Xingjie and I feel that it should be easy to talk to. If possible, I would like to let it live in our Daxia permanently. Then we can build a power plant for it and find someone to take care of it..."

Gu Xingzhou was shocked: "How come you can talk about anything?"

Although Jing Lan was somewhat tempted, she still shook her head and said, "No, that won't work. I can't break through now. Dabao and Erbao are still waiting for me in the Mountain of Ten Thousand Beasts. If I break through, I won't be able to go back."

The upper limit of the secret realm of Wanshou Mountain is the peak of four stars. Once Jinglan breaks through and becomes a five-star monster, she will not be able to return to Wanshou Mountain.

"You can borrow it from Lao Shu. His star tribulation is also gathering, and he has almost merged with the veins of the Mountain of Ten Thousand Beasts. If he breaks through, the Mountain of Ten Thousand Beasts will also advance. I am not in a hurry."

"Is that so? All right."

Then Jinglan flapped her wings and flew away, taking Gu Xingzhou and the white cat away.

Ji Ruo sat down cross-legged on the spot, and quickly took out the long stick made of the core of the Mountain God Wood that the Mountain God Wood had asked Ji Xiaoxiao to give him, and also took out the pieces of clothes from the dead that he had collected so far.

Li asked curiously, "Ji Ruo, what do you want to do with these things?"

"You'll know in a moment... Oh, by the way, I killed Gu Shaoxuan earlier, and he gave me a book called "The Sutra of Rebirth in Hell". It's a book of martial arts that he learned outside the country. It's said to be related to the underworld. Take it and have a look. The martial arts moves in it should be able to cause damage to those souls."

"oh?"

Li took the Hell and Rebirth Sutra, stroked the cover lightly with his fingers, and was a little surprised: "This is... a book condensed from the will of martial arts..."

"Yes, he was clearly dead at the time, and his body had been sanctified, but he was still able to exist for a period of time as a soul. This book, The Sutra of Rebirth in Hell, was left behind after his soul dissipated."

"Can one still exist as a soul after death?"

Li became interested and began to study it.

Ji Ruo took out the needle and thread and started his invention.

The title of "Great Inventor" for functional purposes is very powerful!

With this title, Ji Ruo even felt that he could even dismantle the Universal Mirror...

…

Outside Babaozhai.

A large number of Netherworld demons began to slowly revive under the supply of dense Yin energy.

After resurrection, they were confused at first, and then ecstatic.

The dense yin energy here is the best breeding ground for them.

"Everyone! Those humans can't stop us! We won't die at all!"

A giant bull-headed monster with most of its body condensed said excitedly.

"Indeed, although my power has decreased a bit, this feeling of being free from any constraints is really wonderful."

The high-level demons are feeling and adapting to their current power.

The Eye Demon had lost most of its soul to Li's sword moves before, but because Li himself had not yet adapted to the rules of the Netherworld, he was unable to harm the Eye Demon's foundation. At this moment, the Eye Demon was slowly recovering under the endless supply of rich and gloomy yin energy.

As the first five-star monster to be resurrected with the help of the rules of the underworld, the Eye Demon must know more information than other monsters.

"It seems that there is more than one secret realm here..."

The Eye Demon looked thoughtfully at the wandering ghosts below who were low-level demons in their previous lives and were still in a daze after being resurrected.

After thinking about it, the Eye Demon used his innate ability to forcibly open the spiritual intelligence of those low-level demons.

As the vast mental force swept over, the other five-star demons were slightly surprised. They didn't understand why the Eye Demon would go through such a thankless task and waste his own energy to open the spiritual intelligence of those little souls.

Before they could figure it out, the next moment——

"Great Demon, be merciful!"

"Thanks to the Great Demon, we are able to embrace the netherworld... We will not be hungry, we will not be tired, and our life span is no longer limited... This feeling is really great!"

"Big devil bull!"

Countless low-level demons began to praise the Eye Demon.

Worship, admiration, gratitude... The pure faith of the Netherworld demons at this moment, under the influence of certain rules, broke through the boundary between illusion and reality, condensed into a strange force, and gathered towards the Eye Demon.

The Eye Demon listened blankly to the words of gratitude or reverence.

Its soul seemed to be affected in some way, and its spiritual power was constantly changing. It seemed that it had touched some authority that it had not yet controlled...

"The throne of the netherworld..."

A simple yet noble mysterious tablet was slowly condensing in the huge eyes of the Eye Demon.

While the low-level demons were still praising the Eye Demon, the high-level demons couldn't wait to go to Daxia and cause some trouble.

"etc."

The Eye Demon said calmly, "It's not the right time yet. You are not allowed to go."

It was receiving inheritance, and the huge amount of information kept impacting its mind. Fortunately, it was a five-star monster and was extremely strong mentally, so it was not affected much.

"Big Eyeball, are you ordering us around?"

A Netherworld demon who was once a five-star demon beast Feiyuchi said in a sinister voice: "Do you think that you are superior to us because you embraced the Netherworld first?"

The Eye Demon glanced at Fei Yuji indifferently.

The divine power that was still in the process of transformation was released, and a crack actually appeared on the side of the Eye Demon's body. A terrifying beast claw stretched out from it, grabbed Feiyu Chicken and squeezed it hard!

Feiyuchi was unable to resist the divine power, and he let out a scream, and his soul flew away.

The faces of the surrounding demons all changed drastically. As they had become demons of the underworld, they could naturally sense that Feiyu Chi's soul had disappeared.

"Big Eyeball, you——"

"I said, you are not allowed to go." The Eye Demon said calmly: "Also, call me a god!"

As it spoke, the terrifying beast swung its claws, and the Netherworld Demon that had just called it Big Eyeball also stepped into the dust of Feiyuchi.

For a moment, all the demons in the underworld were silent.

The Eye Demon noticed that among the vast amount of information, there was one piece of information related to the true name of the Godhead. With a thought, he sent a message through his mind:

"Those who praise my true name will see eternal life in the underworld!"

The demons were stunned for a moment.

"Big eyes! Big eyes!"

A three-star Shadow Wolf started, and then—

Thousands of demons roared in unison, like mountains and seas roaring.

In the sky, countless huge eyes opened and closed.

"Big eyes?!"

The Eye Demon was stunned. Its name was confirmed, and its divine ability was: big eyes and good eyesight...

Among countless eyes, eyeballs were rolling around, the supreme blank authority was moving away from it, and another not-so-strong authority was controlled by it.

The Eye Demon suddenly remembered the swordsman who chopped him down before, one step at a time, one sword at a time. Although he didn't understand what he said, it felt quite powerful.

If it was a human who called it just now, its divine name would definitely be better, right?

Now...it's too late.

The Eye Demon sighed and accepted the fact helplessly.

He is a god after all, and there is no way to change him, so just use him as he is...

With the continuous inheritance, the Eye Demon understood many things, which were the feedback given to it by the still immature Shinto rules.

When its divine power is fully transformed, it will invade Daxia and plunder believers. Those humans have gone to school, so they should be able to give it a good subordinate divine position...

The Eye Demon was preparing, and Ji Ruo was also preparing.

The night is long, the day is about to break, and the decisive battle is about to begin!
