Chapter 421: Huangquan Envoy, the Guardian Giant Spirit

Chapter 421: Huangquan Envoy, the Guardian Giant Spirit

"I choose Huangquan Lingshi." Ye Luo said without hesitation, as if he had already thought about the choice of advancement this time.

The judge was quite surprised. "Little girl, don't be so hasty to choose. You must know that every assignment and every bit of power has a price to pay.

Becoming the Lord Wuchang allows you to capture souls and spirits, but you must also obey the king's orders, capture evil spirits, and control the dark spirits.

Becoming a steward of the underworld means you can decide life and death, reward the good and punish the evil, but you also have to judge cases of yin and yang and execute orders impartially.

Becoming a Yellow Springs Envoy is even more incredible. You must know that the Yellow Springs Envoy’s job is to maintain the cycle of life and death. Although you are not under the jurisdiction of the Underworld, even the King of Hell cannot restrict you, but your fate will be bound to the Underworld. Once you become a Yellow Springs Envoy, you will be a Yellow Springs Envoy for life. You need to carry the will of the Underworld and become a part of the cycle of life and death. You cannot escape it even after death. It is unknown whether this fate is good or bad..."

"I've already made up my mind." Ye Luo said without hesitation, "I'll choose Huangquan Envoy."

The judge nodded slightly and said, "Well, if that's the case, I'll give you this job."

After saying this, the judge put away the merit book, took out a bottle of water from his bosom and handed it over.

"This bottle contains the water of the underworld. If an ordinary person drinks it, his life span will be exhausted immediately and he will die.

But as a practitioner of the God of Death, you are listed on the List of Underworld Messengers and have great merits to protect you, which should be able to offset the damage caused by the water of the Yellow Spring.

Drink this water from the underworld, and I will help you ascend to a higher level and cast a spell."

Ye Luo took the Yellow Spring Water without hesitation and drank it all.

There was a flash of white light on her body, and she suddenly became transparent, like a ghost.

A ball of emerald green light surrounded her and slowly rose from under her feet.

The judge hurriedly took out a command flag and waved it towards Ye Luo. Every time he waved it, Ye Luo's color changed.

At first, it still looked like a living person, but the color of its body kept fading, from flesh color to white, from white to gray, from gray to black, and finally to almost transparent.

Xiao Jie and I, Yu Chengxian, were watching from the sidelines with our hearts trembling with fear. This ritual seemed a bit dangerous.

Why does it feel like turning a living person into a dead person?

The judge waved his flag for the last time, and the shadow of a huge stone tablet suddenly appeared behind Ye Luo, and countless white lights of merit surrounded him.

The body that had almost disappeared instantly regained its flesh color. The green light representing the power of Huangquan turned into a vortex-shaped symbol, which flashed at the center of Ye Luo's eyebrows and disappeared completely.

System prompt: After completing the promotion ceremony, you have obtained [Power of the Underworld]...

The judge nodded and said, "Although you have obtained the power of Huangquan Commander and can use it, you still need some training to fully control this power. When you can summon the power of Huangquan, you will truly become Huangquan Commander.

I have understood the situation here, so I will go there."

After saying this, the judge waved his command flag and the gate to the underworld appeared behind him. The judge turned inside and disappeared.

Xiao Jie and I, Yu Chengxian, hurried over.

Xiao Jie asked in a deep voice: "Ye Luo, from what the judge said just now, this Yellow Springs Envoy seems to have some negative costs?"

Ye Luo smiled calmly, "Don't you have to pay a price to accomplish anything in this world? What's different about what I'm doing now?"

Xiao Jie didn't buy it. "What does he mean by becoming a part of the cycle of life and death?"

Ye Luo chuckled, "To be honest, I'm not too sure. Maybe I won't be able to die in the future. Even if I die, the power of Huangquan can bring me back to life, so that I can maintain the operation of the reincarnation itself for life."

I want to become an immortal and said in surprise: "Isn't this a good thing?"

Ye Luo smiled and said, "Yes, it is indeed a good thing."

Xiao Jie thought it was not that simple. "What would happen if you died? Resurrected on the spot?"

"Haha, how could such a good thing happen? I guess I will probably turn into the water of Huangquan and become a part of Huangquan. Huangquan originally represents the existence of death, and if I become a part of death, I will naturally never die."

This is fucking... This is not immortal, it's clearly being decomposed.

According to the background story of this game, normal people can reincarnate and be reborn after death.

Although it is not certain whether players can enjoy this treatment, it seems that there is no such opportunity to become a Huangquan Order Envoy.

Xiao Jie frowned, "Why did you choose this advancement?"

Although the power of Huangquan does sound powerful and impressive, the side effects are too great.

"Of course there is a reason. I will give you a surprise later. But now, let's help Chengxian complete the advancement task first."

Xiao Jie felt a little uneasy, as Ye Luo's choice seemed to be for some purpose. However, he also knew that no one could change Ye Luo's mind, and the matter was already done. He just didn't know what the surprise would be.

"Okay, let's go to Xuanxu Palace first." Xiao Jie said, cheering up.

The three of them each summoned their mounts and galloped towards Xuanxu Palace.

The three of them were silent along the way. I wanted to ask several times, but Ye Luo changed the subject every time.

Half an hour later, the three of them arrived at the foot of Dongyang Mountain.

Xiao Jie recalled the time when he and Yu Chengxian came together to deliver the magic talisman, as if it happened just yesterday. However, time has changed, people have changed, and now the two of them are no longer the rookies they were back then.

They are all masters, and Xiao Jie's strength has reached the top level of the game.

The state of mind is naturally completely different.

Looking at the beautiful scenery in front of him, Xiao Jie temporarily put aside his doubts and took the two of them straight up the mountain.

After walking along the mountain road for a few minutes, we saw a huge white tiger with drooping eyes and a white forehead, lying on an open space halfway up the mountain, taking a nap.

White Tiger: Level 30. HP 5000.

Xiao Jie had seen this thing once before, and he was able to avoid it thanks to Bai Ze's invisibility technique. But now is different from before, this time Xiao Jie is not afraid anymore.

On the contrary, I am quite interested in it. I don't know what template this thing is. It's only level 30... but it has so much health.

It can be said to be a BOSS, but there is no label.

Although his health is a bit thick and his body size looks very impressive, Xiao Jie is actually not weak.

Even if this thing didn't belong to Xuanxu Palace, he could find a way to blow it up. So what if it was a white tiger? He could still fight it head-on if he transformed himself into a dragon.

But now, it’s better to make friends.

Xiao Jie walked forward, activated the beast language technique, and said in a gentle voice: "Brother Tiger, we have something to do up the mountain. Please make it convenient for us and don't stop us."

The white tiger glanced at the three people, and seemed a little surprised that Xiao Jie could talk to it, but it did not show any hostility. "Awoo, the real person is waiting for you on the mountain, go quickly, don't disturb my sleep."

Then he closed his eyes again and fell into a doze.

This thing turned out to be the gatekeeper of Xuanxu Palace. The three of them bypassed the white tiger and continued climbing the mountain. They soon arrived at the gate of Xuanxu Palace.

Xiao Jie still remembers that when he first came here, there were many players kneeling in front of the gate who came here to learn from the master. However, now they probably found that this was not working, and the people kneeling at the door have disappeared.

No, not everything has disappeared. There is still a person kneeling not far away.

Dongfeng Yelu (Swordsman) Level 29. HP 600.

When Xiao Jie saw the man's name, he still had a vague impression of him. The last time he came, it seemed that there was such a person in the crowd. He even said a few words at that time.

But he was not too sure. After all, so much time had passed. It was impossible that this man had been kneeling for several months.

The man was also a little surprised to see Xiao Jie.

"Hey, isn't this Brother Feng? He comes to Xuanxu Palace again."

What an acquaintance.

Xiao Jie was also a little surprised, "What are you doing?"

"Kneel down, we talked about this last time you came, how come you don't remember it?"

Xiao Jie was speechless, "Of course I remember, it's been several months, why are you still kneeling here?" Xiao Jie thought to himself, it's been such a long time, and he hasn't given up yet.

The man said, "Nonsense! If you want to show your sincerity, you must kneel until the door opens. If you kneel for a few days and then leave, how can you be considered sincere?"

"What about the others?"

"Of course they all left after kneeling for a while. These guys were just joining in the fun. They gave up after kneeling for a few days. But I'm not that stupid. It's not that easy to become a disciple and learn skills. If the door is not opened, I will kneel until the game is shut down. Anyway, there is no big development for my account. I have learned all the martial arts and internal strength that I should learn. There is not much point in learning more. Now all I need is spells, so I will kneel slowly. I plan to kneel for three years first.

Anyway, there are no monsters or dangers here, so who would dare to cause trouble in Xuanxu Palace? I can kneel down as long as I want. I don’t believe that you will accept me as a disciple sooner or later.”

Xiao Jie thought that he really had perseverance, "Okay, then you kneel slowly, we will go in first."

"Hey Brother Feng, if it's convenient, please say a few good words for me. I know you have a lot of face."

Xiao Jie thought to himself that it was not that easy. Even if he really had such a big face, those two real people were willing to do him a favor. How could they give him a favor for free? What good things are you thinking?

The man seemed to have thought of all this, "I won't ask you to do me this favor for nothing. As long as you can say a few good words for me and let Xuanxu Palace accept me, I will give you 100 million when I become rich."

Xiao Jie thought to himself that even dogs wouldn't eat the pie you drew.

"Oh, okay. I'll see how the situation goes." Xiao Jie said perfunctorily, and knocked on the door with the two of them.

Soon the door opened and two Taoist boys pushed it open and came out.

"who?"

"I am Yin Yue Sui Feng, a junior, and I have come to ask Master Qing Feng for something."

"Ah, you must be the returnees that the real person mentioned. Please come in."

After the battle at Zhenhun Pass, the magic weapon that was rewarded for the mission was damaged, so Xiao Jie asked Qingfeng Zhenren to help repair it. Now is the time to get it back. It's a good opportunity for me to ask about the advancement conditions of the giant spirit while I'm trying to become an immortal.

The Taoist boy led the way while explaining, "Master Qingfeng is not in the palace, please forgive me, but Master Mingyue is here, please follow me."

"Where did Master Qingfeng go?"

"I went to discuss military and national affairs with the governor. I heard that someone from the north is leading troops to attack us."

(I see. That’s right. Long Xing Tian Xia is probably also attending the meeting in Xiao Feng City.)
Soon the three of them arrived at the main hall, where True Man Mingyue was waiting.

When he saw the three of them, he said without further ado, "I already know why you are here. I have already repaired this treasure, so you can take it."

After saying that, he threw a mirror to Xiao Jie.

System prompt: Obtain the item [Yin Yang Soul-Calming Mirror].

[Yin Yang Soul Calming Mirror (Magic Weapon/Eighth Grade)

Magic weapon effect 1: Divine Light of Yin. Suck the ghost of an undead unit into the mirror, causing 20 points of spell damage to it per second for 180 seconds. If the target dies in the mirror, you will immediately recover mana equal to its health. (Cooling time: 30 minutes)

Magical weapon effect 2: Shocking Sun Light. Use it on a biological unit to shock its mind and soul, making it enter a state of shock, unable to perform any actions. Attacking it may interrupt this effect (it can only take effect on units facing you, not on units with their backs facing you), which lasts for 180 seconds. (Cooling time: 30 minutes)

Item Description: A magic weapon left by an ancient immortal. It has two sides, yin and yang, and has different effects when used. It seems to be specially made to restrain ghosts and evil spirits, and has limited effect on living people. 】

Good stuff, a powerful control spell, especially effective against undead units.

Although it is not as good for living people, it is still okay.

Looking at the description of this Yin-capturing divine light, it seems that any undead can be trapped instantly.

180 seconds, 20 points of damage, that is 3600 points of total damage, which can kill non-BOSS units instantly.

The same effect also applies to biological units, but it's not as obvious.

Xiao Jie equipped the Yin-Yang Soul-Calming Mirror with satisfaction.

Unlike the Demon Refining Gourd, this thing can directly improve combat effectiveness.

"If there is nothing else, please leave."

"Ah, Master Mingyue, I do have a favor to ask of you."

"Hmph, go ahead and tell me, but I may not help you." Master Mingyue still had that cold expression on his face.

However, Xiao Jie felt that although Master Mingyue was a little cold, he was actually quite easy to talk to. On the contrary, Master Qingfeng, although he was very polite and gentle, was also too slippery. When it came to matters of interest, he was not so easy to talk to.

"Master Mingyue, my brother wants to subdue demons and monsters, but now his strength growth has reached a bottleneck. He wants to transform into a giant spirit, but he doesn't know the specific method. Can you teach me something?"

Master Mingyue hesitated for a moment, "Giant spirit? Haha, it's for this reason, well, I will explain it to you in detail.

This giant spirit was created by immortals in order to fight against demons and monsters that disrupted events.

108 masters are selected from among mortal warriors, granted with supernatural powers, tempered their bodies and souls, transformed into guardian gods, subduing demons and eliminating monsters, and being invincible.

After ten years of fighting, thirty-six men died, sixty-two retired, and in the end only ten men became gods.

Xiao Jie thought, this thing has retired people?

But Master Mingyue continued,
"It is not difficult to become a guardian giant. You only need to do three things.

First, one must manifest divine light and have the power of incense added to one's body.

Secondly, one must refine the body and transform the flesh and blood into a golden body. Only in this way can one possess divine power and become a living god.

Thirdly, one must maintain a pure yang body, free from the seven emotions and six desires, so as to maintain the divine power from being leaked.

I think you, my brother, are quite qualified. If you really want to become a guardian giant, I will help you.

However, the materials needed to refine the body still need to be collected by you."

So smooth? Xiao Jie was a little surprised and looked at me, "How about it, do you want to come?"

"Ah, Master Mingyue, why do you have to protect your pure yang body? What will happen if it is tainted by the seven emotions and six desires?"

"Immediately lose all your divine powers and return to being a mortal."

"Ah... so that's the case... can you let me think about it carefully?" I said with a struggling tone as if I were going to become an immortal.
