Transcendent Dawn

"You... have changed a lot."

Li Shitou was silent for a long time, and finally spoke.

From Xu Changqing, he felt a terrible threat, which reminded him of the scene when he met the corpse Jie Xian.

Even if he is already at the fourth level of Shinto—【Luo Feng】! But there is still a long distance from the fifth-level [Prince Yan Luo].

For many mortals, becoming a god is impossible. Even if it is to cross the fourth to fifth order of the natural moat, it is very difficult.

'Sure enough... I lost my grandfather...I lost a lot...'

Li Shitou felt a little regretful, but also a little envious.

To say that watching the friends who grew up together in the village, and even seeing my face when I was a child, far surpassed me, it is impossible not to be jealous.

However, he is now a yin god, has grown a lot, and can control his emotions well.

"What's going on in the village...?"

Xu Changqing looked at his childhood friend, not knowing what to say for a while, so he asked casually.

"Everyone is fine...me too."

Li Shitou thought for a while, and said calmly: "I discovered the ruins of my predecessor [Luo Feng] in the underworld, and it is now at the fourth level..."

"That's good……"

Xu Changqing knew in his heart that ordinary practitioners, as long as they have the method and work hard enough, there is still hope to reach the fourth level.

But the leap from the fourth level to the fifth level is like a gate of hell, which stumps countless monks.

Even if there is a method, the success rate is pitifully low.

For example, the owner of the ruins that Li Shitou benefited from was once [Luo Feng], but he failed to attack [Prince Yan Luo], and he did not succeed until his death.

"Here, I have a fifth-level [Prince Yama] method..."

Xu Changqing was silent again, and finally spoke.

"[Prince Yama]?"

Li Shitou's eyes lit up.

If [Luo Feng] is just a stronger local snake in the underworld, then [Prince Yan Luo] is the real giant prince!

There is even the possibility of becoming [Yin Tianzi] and in charge of the underworld in this world, which can be seen from the job title.

The so-called 'Prince' was originally a reserve of the 'Son of Heaven'! With the legal system of inheritance!

"What do you want? A weird thing? I have accumulated a lot..."

Li Shitou asked.

"No..." Xu Changqing shook his head: "I just need you to swear an oath, and take the Hades as witness."

As a Yin god, the binding force of this oath is very strong.

"What oath, let me recognize you as master?" Li Shitou's voice was a little stiff.

"No! I want you to protect the village forever and ever!"

Xu Changqing said coldly: "This request...isn't that high?"

"It's really not high, but even if I don't have an oath, I will...forget it!" Li Shitou pondered for a while, raised his right hand, and raised three fingers: "I, Li Shitou, please bear witness..."

'People... are sure to change, and the Yin God doesn't have a physical body, especially so...'

Xu Changqing looked at this scene and thought to himself.

He was keenly aware that Li Shitou's temperament had changed, but it was abnormal to remain unchanged.

After Li Shitou finished his oath, he gave all the information about [Prince Yan Luo] he got from his grandfather.

Looking at the scene where Li Shitou disappeared into the ground, he couldn't help but sigh: "Things are different..."

"hehe……"

Sulu smiled without saying a word.

"It's true... I'm hypocritical." Xu Changqing laughed dumbly: "Even I have changed, so why talk about others? It's useless to stay here, let's go..."

...

Lingzhou, outside the state city.

After the rain, the sky is sunny and the air is fresh.

There are 'official roads' between the state city of Lingzhou and the major cities, and there are regular patrols by town monsters.

Although it is still disturbed by ghosts and ghosts, it is much safer than rural trails.

Around the official road, there is also a tea shed.

The shopkeeper here is from Zhoucheng. Every day at dawn, he drives an ox cart to open the door for business. He provides tea, snacks and even wine and meat for the passing visitors.

The owner of the tea shed is surnamed 'Wang' and nicknamed Old Wangtou. With his son who is a clerk, he is able to make a living by welcoming and sending off every day.

At this time, a young scholar with a bamboo basket on his back came outside the shop holding an oil-paper umbrella.

"Guest officer."

Old man Wang's son, Xiao Wang, immediately greeted him with a smile on his face: "Do you want to rest for a while? Our thirst-quenching tea is very famous..."

Halfway through his speech, he secretly wondered.

This young scholar's appearance can only be considered average, his green shirt has been washed and washed, it has been washed a little white, but his temperament is not bad, even with his eyesight, he can't see it right.

"Just a bowl of tea and some snacks."

The scholar smiled, put down the basket, and sat in a corner.

The old man Wang is a good person, and he sent a bowl of brown sugar ginger tea for free: "After the rain, it's cold, guest officer, drink a bowl to warm up... Are you here to take the exam?"

"Exactly..."

The scholar nodded, but didn't say much.

Old man Wang knew very well that this must be from a small family, otherwise it would be impossible for him to walk without a guard around him.

But to be able to come out of the state city safely alone, either a bit of luck, or a bit of skill, I dare not neglect.

"Selling cattle and sheep!"

After a while, there was a burst of yelling.

But it was a middle-aged shepherdess who drove a cow and three sheep to the tea shop and peddled them loudly.

"This sheep is not bad...how did you sell it?"

Wang Xiaoer asked a lot.

Meat is also cooked on the tea stand, which needs mutton.

"It's not expensive, it's not expensive..." The woman smiled and quoted an extremely low price, which made Wang Xiaoer tempted immediately, and glanced at his father.

Old man Wang hesitated.

This price is naturally extremely low, but it can't be stolen goods, or plague sheep, right?

He glanced at it carefully, and felt that it didn't look like a sick sheep, so he couldn't help but feel a little moved.

At this moment, the scholar also finished his tea, looked at the middle-aged woman, sneered, and said to Wang Xiaoer: "I don't have anything long, so I will give you a talisman to keep you safe."

After speaking, regardless of Wang Xiaoer's astonishment, he directly took a piece of yellow paper, picked up a brush, and began to draw symbols.

He followed the lead with the pen, and a strange symbol suddenly appeared.

It looks like the word 'counseling', and the strokes on it seem to be constantly distorting and changing.

As soon as the talisman was drawn, the shepherdess screamed, and plumes of black smoke came out of her body.

But the cattle and sheep started to stir up one after another, buzzing in their mouths, which seemed to be a vague 'help'!

"What kind of demon is this...?"

Old man Wang was so frightened that his voice trembled.

"It's not a demon..."

The young scholar shook his head, took out a small black knife from the place where the shepherdess had turned into a puddle of pus, scratched a few times on the cattle and sheep, and peeled off the sheepskin and cowhide.

Soon, several people appeared from inside, real people!

Seeing this scene, the old man Wang and his son suddenly had cold hands and feet and were speechless.
