Secular world: My destiny has no taboos

Chapter 301 Chapter 300: What kind of species is he?
[You are baptized by pure air, and your health is restored by +1. ]

There is sunshine in Luozhou, but this sun is always hidden in the clouds. The weather is not very hot, and there is even a hint of chill.

However, this kind of weather, which seemed quite good to ordinary people, lasted for three whole years.

These were three years of rule by starving ghosts.

In the two years before that, the sun was high in the sky without a drop of rain. The rivers dried up, the wheat withered, and the ordinary people of Luozhou were on the verge of life and death.

All in all, five years have passed.

The howling wind was blowing, and under my feet was yellow-brown gravel that had turned from the original soil.

Desolate and dilapidated are not enough to describe this place. If ordinary people want to survive in such a place, they can only eat everything they see like hungry ghosts.

"Tread, step, step..."

Suddenly, a figure shrouded in a black robe slowly raised his head.

He glanced at the map in his hand and moved his eyes forward, as if trying to find certain places marked on the map.

"call!"

"The environment in Luozhou has changed so much that there are no reference points in many places that can be used to confirm the specific name of the location."

Lin Beixuan looked forward, his black robe rustling in the wind and floating to the side and back. His tall and slender body was like a sharp sword inserted into the vast land in front of him.

At this moment, it has been half a day since he left Bi County. His speed of movement is not slow. It can even be said that after breaking away from the constraints of the large army, his speed is almost ten times faster than before.

There are also many problems with walking too fast, one of which is that he now doesn't know where he is.

"..."

"Forget it, let's just take it one step at a time. If it doesn't work, I'll contact the Fox Spirit God or the Xun God. They should be able to easily determine where I am."

Lin Beixuan thought about it and continued walking.

As for the Luozhou border guards who are still fighting against the starving ghosts, even the Fox Spirit God is not sure whether they still exist. After all, more than a year has passed since the two met.

If the other party is still alive, he should be hiding in some mountain where he is not easily found by starving ghosts.

But now the mountains in Luozhou are all barren, and the former greenery has all turned into dead trees with twisted and dry branches.

In my eyes, sand grains are jumping in the wind, forming wave-like sand dunes. Around me are patches of weathered Gobi desert. Occasionally, I can see a few sedges stubbornly breaking out of the ground. Their roots are deeply rooted in this extremely barren soil, as if reminding people that there is still life on this land.

We walked for a long time until the sky darkened and only a faint line remained on the distant skyline outlining the mountains, showing a desolate beauty.

Lin Beixuan ignored the impending darkness and stepped firmly on the ground.

As he approached the mountains, he found that the ground was slightly harder than the plains before. The exposed mountains revealed the rugged rocks, which were sculpted by the natural climate.

Lin Beixuan was not idle during the journey. He calmed down and mobilized the power of the other two shrines in his mansion.

Bai Ze Shui Jun!

That’s it! Create descendants!

The sudden explosion between the two shrines caused the power in Lin Beixuan's body to go out of control and almost killed him.

In a rage, Lin Beixuan mobilized the northern horses outside the Great Wall to suppress the two shrines directly, reducing the authority of the two shrines to control power and simply sealing them up. He rarely used the power of the two shrines.

However, this time, because he obtained a lot of materials from Sheshan that could be used as talismans for the shrines of Baize Shuijun and Luoqi Zaoyi, he had to draw out the power of the two again.

"Once the three shrines in my body have been refined, I can start to enter the realm of summoning gods."

"But before that, we must first defeat those two shrines."

Lin Beixuan thought silently, looking into the pair of lifeless eyes at the Beima shrine outside the city gate.

The candles of life were lit with flickering flames, like stars. The fluttering white banners looked like military flags, or like soul banners used to wrap corpses. Two stone beasts stood quietly within the boundaries of the shrine, looking cold and majestic...

His mansion is now divided into three areas.

The Northern Horse outside the pass occupies most of the mansion, and the remaining area is occupied by the other two shrines.

The three areas also intersect at a place where there is a stone bridge. Below is the gurgling Yellow Spring, and above is the blood rain belonging to the Luoqi Zaoyi shrine, which occasionally floats on the stone bridge.

After crossing the stone bridge, in front of you is the North Horse area outside the pass, half hidden in the black fog, with layers of chains colliding and making metallic clanging sounds.

The reason why this stone bridge is located in the middle of the three shrines and can withstand the influence of three forces is that this stone bridge is the source of Lin Beixuan's power, which is the four pillars that he spent a lot of time constructing during the stage of founding his government.

These four beams and eight pillars support the entire Kaifu mansion. They are the source of his power and his foundation.

He can use this to limit the power of the three shrines, and how much of it ultimately enters his body is entirely up to him.

If it weren't for the lesson of the last time when his flesh and blood dissolved, Lin Beixuan might have allowed the power of the three shrines to spread freely onto the stone bridge.

But now, without his permission, the power would be locked in the three shrines, which was like adding a lock to himself.

"Other people want to have as much power as possible in their bodies, but for me, I have to suppress and block my own power!"

Lin Beixuan shook his head and smiled bitterly, then opened his hands. Pieces of talisman materials flew in the middle of the stone bridge, and then each flew towards the shrine area to which they belonged.

As these talismans flew into their respective shrine areas, there was a faint vibration in the direction of the Baize Shuijun shrine and the Luoqi Zaoyi shrine, and invisible ripples emerged. With the blessing of the talismans, the power of the two shrines increased again.

"Drip, drip, drip..."

The blood rain falling from the sky was getting heavier and heavier, and gradually began to drift.

The Yellow Spring water, which had been suppressed by Lin Beixuan under the stone bridge and only a small stream remained, began to surge.

"Want to break the rules again?"

Lin Beixuan's eyes were sinister, and his brows were full of ferocity: "Do you really want me to replace you?"

"Trust me, I can do it."

"Hmph!" Standing on the stone bridge, Lin Beixuan raised his eyes slightly and snorted coldly. The ripples approaching him were immediately dispersed. The Yellow Spring under the stone bridge seemed to have its spring eye pinched, and its surging momentum came to an abrupt stop. Most of the blood rain falling from the sky was blown back into the sky by a sudden strong wind.

Looking around, the Beima shrine area outside the pass remained silent, the white flags fluttered lightly, and the sparks on the life candles did not even shake a little.

Judging from the name and the route, the North Horse Shrine outside the Great Wall should be the most unruly and the one who likes to cause trouble. However, in front of Lin Beixuan, it always looks like a good baby from beginning to end.

There is no other reason, it just likes Lin Beixuan too much.

Especially when Lin Beixuan conquered Sheshan and expanded the team to more than 10,000 people, he liked him even more.

The Seven Killing Stars shine brightly on the sun, and no shrine outside the Great Wall of Beima can refuse such a perfect master.

Lin Beixuan pulled his mind away from the mansion and opened his eyes in the outside world.

Now, training the shrine in the mansion is something he does every day.

Especially at this stage when he is about to enter the realm of summoning gods.

"Okay, let's continue on our way!" Lin Beixuan turned his head and said to the infant spirit floating around him.

"Mmmmm~"

The baby spirit tilted its neck, the lanugo on its head had receded, and thick, short black hair gradually grew.

"Are we going to keep wandering like this?" the baby spirit asked in confusion. Not finding anyone meant wandering aimlessly to the baby spirit.

Lin Beixuan shook his head upon hearing this, ignored the infant spirit's question, and looked forward.

At this time, the night had become completely dark, the moonlight was sparse, the whole world was shrouded in darkness, and shadows could be seen everywhere.

Not far ahead, a skinny figure was walking in the faint moonlight.

When the infant spirit saw the person in front of it, its eyes suddenly lit up.

"Hey, there's something up ahead!"

Lin Beixuan raised his eyebrows. The infant spirit said it was a "thing", which meant that the figure in front was not a human!

"Starving ghost, or what?"

Lin Beixuan still walked according to the route he had determined and did not take the initiative to cause trouble for that thing.

Many people died in Luozhou, including countless starving ghosts, ghosts and evil spirits. If he encountered one, he would go forward and kill it. I'm afraid that the number of people who died at his hands along the way was no less than three digits.

In order to save trouble, Lin Beixuan usually waited until the other party came to cause trouble for him, and he was too lazy to waste time to get rid of the other party.

But...the figure didn't seem to think so.

Just as Lin Beixuan was about to enter the mountain gorge ahead, the figure who had been wandering around suddenly walked towards him.

Upon seeing this, the baby spirit showed an excited smile on his face: "It's coming, it's coming, this time I'm going to cut it into eight petals!!"

The baby spirit stuck out its tongue and licked its lips, with uncontrollable joy in its eyes.

Lin Beixuan didn't allow him to take the initiative to cause trouble along the way, which made him feel very frustrated.

Although there were some starving ghosts that pounced on it sporadically during the period, it was just like eating vegetables. There were too few of them and the fun was gone at the very beginning, which made the infant spirit unhappy for a long time.

Now that it's getting dark, there must be more and more starving ghosts. Let's use this half-human, half-ghost creature in front of me as a snack!

'laugh……'

The infant spirit pulled out the scissors of sorrow and joy that it was carrying on its back, and floated towards the figure walking towards it.

Looking at this scene, Lin Beixuan just frowned but didn't say anything.

When the figure walked towards him, he had already recognized the other person's identity.

A zombie.

This zombie was similar to the ones he had seen before. Its facial flesh was rotten, but it had a slightly metallic luster. It did not walk as regularly as a normal person, but its speed was astonishingly fast.

"It's still a zombie of a fairly high grade. It should be a zombie that is about to enter the White-haired Howler or Drought Demon stage."

Lin Beixuan stopped and watched the other party rushing towards him.

Just when the walking corpse was only five meters away from Lin Beixuan, the infant spirit had already rushed to the other side, dragging the Scissors of Joy and Sorrow that were bigger than its own body.

The unique resentment on the scissors of sorrow and joy dissipated, and the blades cut through the void. Every time they cut, they could cut off the enemy's obsession along with it.

The infant spirit was full of confidence, and the Scissors of Joy and Sorrow did cut the other person's body.

However, a strange scene happened.

The zombie only paused briefly due to the obstruction of the Scissors of Sadness and Joy, and then took another step and rushed towards Lin Beixuan.

"..."

The baby spirit's eyes gradually widened and it looked at the other party in disbelief.

This was the first time he failed when using the Scissors of Sorrow and Joy. Before that, even the starving ghost gluttons who were equivalent to the Kaifu realm could not remain unscathed by the Scissors of Sorrow and Joy.

But the zombie in front of him only paused for a few seconds.

Just now, his scissors of joy and sorrow seemed to have been cut on a hard stone. Even the other party's obsession was as hard as a stone, making it impossible for him to cut it.

"how come?"

The infant spirit, feeling defeated for the first time, was quite indignant and slashed the zombie with the scissors again.

However, this time the other party didn't even pause, as if nothing had happened.

The zombies rushed until they were only one meter away from Lin Beixuan, and suddenly stopped.

White air was coming out of its mouth and a faint stench of corpse was emanating from its body. Its terrifying big mouth opened, but it did not roar, but instead turned into a clear sound with panting.

"you are human?!"

The infant spirit who was following behind the other person and was about to raise the scissors was at a loss after hearing the voice.

This zombie can actually talk! !
He glanced at Lin Beixuan and saw that Lin Beixuan was also looking up and down at the zombie in front of him with some surprise.

"I am a human." Lin Beixuan said lightly, looking at the zombies in front of him.

"You are a human, you are a human, you are a human..."

The zombies suddenly burst into laughter. There was no malice in their laughter, but it was full of excitement and delight.

After laughing, it suddenly shook its body, covered its head with its hands, and looked very painful. However, it still took a step forward, brushed past Lin Beixuan's body, and stood in front of Lin Beixuan.

"You are a human being, go away, go away... don't go into this mountain..."

"why?"

"It's very dangerous in there, there are zombies everywhere, and there's also a very scary starving ghost. That starving ghost has nine heads, and anyone who looks at it will turn into blood."

The zombie's voice seemed to be a little urgent, as if he had a severe headache.

"You should leave quickly. There are too few people in Luozhou now. Don't go in and die."

Hearing this, Lin Beixuan looked at the zombies blocking his way with a strange look.

A zombie stood in front of him and said there were many zombies in the mountain and it was very dangerous...

Why does it sound so weird?

According to the common sense of the secular world, the cultivation system of spirits and monsters is almost the same as that of humans. Each realm is equal to that of humans and is divided into spirit refining, golden elixir and then the demon gods, which are secular gods.

Although zombies are also classified as monsters, they are not actually based on the monster-like cultivation system, but have their own advancement path.

When a zombie advances to the level of White-haired Howler or Drought Demon, it is equivalent to the Kaifu realm of a human. If it advances further to the level of Evil Disaster or Red Evil, it is equivalent to the Summoning God realm of a human. Finally, it becomes Unchangeable Bones and Flying Yaksha, which are equivalent to secular gods and human immortals.

However, regarding the rumors about the Unchangeable Bones and the Flying Yaksha, Lin Beixuan has been in the secular world for quite some time, but until now, he has seldom heard any news about the former two.

From what I have seen and heard, the more advanced zombies are the White-haired Roar in the zombie pile in Huangshi Village, and Cheng Hao's drought-demon wife.

The so-called human body is a corpse, and the soul is a spirit, which is beyond the three realms and not within the five elements.

But even more advanced zombies like the White-haired Howler and the Hanba are unable to speak or remain rational.

So what species is this one in front of me?
