Flas, fierce ghosts, tiger shadows, and fog ford a terrifying human purgatory.
When everything had cald down, the twisted ghosts began to decompose, fading away as spots.
As the saying goes, with death, debts are cleared; this enduring evil karma had finally receded.
After all, the entire village had been dismbered, and their souls torn apart, with Black Tiger, temporarily holding the position of the Mountain God, restraining them; the ghosts released by it naturally would no longer plague the human world.
The massive shadow of the tiger approached them, lightly touched them, and transford into three streaks of light that entered their bodies.
"Damn, a hidden reward, actually gave us a passive skill," Heavenly Immortal exclaid in surprise.
He had received a passive skill called "For the Tiger," which added one more summoning counter if the summoned entities summoned by "Summoning Skill" exceeded one. This was a qualitative leap for him, directly allowing him to extend his ti from five minutes to ten minutes.
However, he also wondered if the number of summoning instances would have increased without his talent reduction.
The generous reward that Emperor Hao had received was also a passive skill, only it was not summon related. It was called "Tiger’s Glare" and allowed him to see things like ghosts and resentful spirits, which he normally couldn’t see. For soone like him, who primarily played supernatural gas, this was extrely useful.
He had similar skills, only all were active skills, with short duration, high cost, and, because they were obtained from low-level instances, also had a usage limit, unlike these passive skills that were always active.
"Brother, let’s add each other as friends when we get back, and I’ll invite you again next ti if I have another ticket," Heavenly Immortal shalessly said.
"Not quite feasible, did you not see the ID above my head..." Gu Shanhai brought up his talent reasons again.
The two suddenly realized, no wonder he was so formidable; his major talent restrictions made sense.
With great restrictions ca powerful effects.
The fog gradually cleared, yet the fire in the village still burned.
The fire was set by Gu Shanhai as a way to win favor.
He was also curious about what the mountain ghost was back then. With the power of Black Tiger, how could it have been subdued by a group of ordinary people?
Of course, the Black Tiger a thousand years ago was definitely not as powerful; those thousand years of tribulations were a type of enhancent for it.
It was more like a type of ordeal. If it survived, the sky and sea would be wide open, but if it failed, it would vanish.
If Gu Shanhai and his companions had not solved the puzzle but followed the original plan, hacking their way to successfully kill the Black Tiger, the rewards would definitely be good. However, it was more likely that they would be counter-killed.
And even if they succeeded in killing it, they would probably get stuck in the main plot, which was about the truth of the Mountain God’s marriage, not about killing Black Tiger.
There was a fundantal difference between the two.
From the beginning, it was geared toward the type of causal retribution. As long as they didn’t act recklessly, various clues would appear, although their actions were really too fast and under normal circumstances, might not have caused such a large spectacle.
Normally, players would investigate and then experience the Mountain God’s ceremony, gradually deriving the main quest line. There was no need to fight monsters, though fighting also had its rewards.
Therefore, it was impossible to expect a developnt like Gu Shanhai and the others, with the entire village wiped out and such terrifying entities released.
"That’s too bad, bro, you’re not one of those legendary passersby, are you?" Emperor Hao was sowhat puzzled; Gu Shanhai had seed sowhat unconventional along the way and seed to rely solely on brute force, but unexpectedly it turned out he solved puzzles through deduction.
"No," Gu Shanhai answered perfunctorily. "If we’re lucky, maybe we’ll be matched together again next ti."
Matching again, what a coincidence. As the number of players increased, the number of invitation letters required in the middle tiers continued to increase. Soon, it probably wouldn’t be much different from the initial instances.
The capabilities obtained in initial instances, though powerful, had flaws. Unlike the middle-tier regions where, although the difficulty increased, the skills and equipnt obtained could far surpass those from initial instances.
"Well, if there’s nothing else, I’ll log off first, or I’ll hit the ti limit," Emperor Hao said, apparently without any regrets; after all, he was a player and mourning over a single ga would be absurd.
In middle-tier regions, after completing the main quest, players were given a buffer ti ranging from 1 to 30 minutes, for things like harvesting spoils of war or other affairs, which also constituted an impact on that world by "The First Epoch".
Gu Shanhai did not have these restrictions; he was not an official player.
"If there’s a chance, big bro, carry again next ti. I’m logging off too," Heavenly Immortal didn’t linger and left naturally.
Gu Shanhai didn’t take their comnts to heart; they were rely ships passing in the night.
"Now, it’s ti to pay a visit to the Mountain God," Gu Shanhai looked at the disappearing tiger shadow.
He still needed to stay here for a while; at the very least, he needed to find so good plants to cultivate as Spirit Plants, and anwhile... discuss the matter of the mountain ghost.
He had pulled out a decree written with an unknown blood from Qian Fengsheng’s divine position, initially suspecting it was the blood of the mountain ghost.
If possible, it might serve as a gift for Black Tiger.
As long as he ford a positive connection with the other party, he would receive a positive result.
Planting good seeds yields good fruits; Fengtai Village planted evil seeds, and now they were reaping evil fruits.
Thus, in such worlds, one must be cautious in speech and conduct, for once evil is committed, the consequences could indeed be dire.
And the mountain ghost... likely also suffered evil fruits due to so tainted cause.
Sotis, committing evil is not subjective, and there is no such logic as committing unintentional evil without punishnt—what’s done is done.
Even if this world had so value left, Gu Shanhai was almost ready to escape.
Such worlds were indeed too terrifying; the power level might not be high, but carelessness could definitely lead to disaster.
So his so-called planting of a good seed was, in other words, his preparation to exchange sothing with Black Tiger using this object; as for what he could exchange, he didn’t mind, though preferably, special plants.
Currently, he needed a plant that could serve as a ans of attack; his aura, although explosive, was mainly auxiliary. Moreover, he had now obtained five elental blessing bullets that could expand effects. If he had a ans of attack, he could rise to another level.
And he was also thinking, with such a big commotion, would the official organizations of this world co to investigate?
