Secular world: My destiny has no taboos

Chapter 62: Borrowed Power

“So this is what anger looks like!”

Lin Beixuan looked at the colorful gases floating around him, and gently reached out his hand to touch the green gas floating on the trees next to him. The green gas wrapped around his fingers and disappeared after a while.

"The clear air rises between heaven and earth, and the turbid air sinks, filling the world and nourishing all things." The old beggar's words echoed in Lin Beixuan's ears.

Feeling the infant spirit lying on his shoulder, Lin Beixuan tilted his head slightly and also saw the presence of gas on the infant spirit. It was a light blue-gray gas.

Then, as if he thought of something, Lin Beixuan took out the cloth bag containing the incense ash of the Earth God and placed it in his hand. When he looked carefully, he saw a gray-yellow gas floating faintly on the cloth bag.

"This should be the aura of the Earth God that the old beggar mentioned."

Lin Beixuan calmed his mind, used his thoughts to communicate with this breath, and silently recited the public law.

"Respecting Huangshi Fude Bogong, the Sun surname Kaoyi pays tribute to the body, wears clothes and food, and incense ashes, praying for good weather and good harvests... God of the Earth bless me, guard Huangshi, keep all evil spirits away, and suppress evil spirits with the sword!"

The land god of Huangshi Village was a highly respected old man in the village a hundred years ago. His surname was Sun and his courtesy name was Kaoyi. He was loved by the villagers, but he died in an accident. In order to commemorate him, the villagers built a statue of the land god in his image.

It happened that the Yellow Springs disappeared at that time, and Sun Kaoyi's soul had nowhere to go, so he lived directly in the land temple, eating the incense offerings from the villagers every day. This is how he has his current strength.

The moment Lin Beixuan recited the spell, the energy belonging to Sun Kaoyi was drawn by the energy and flowed into his body along his fingertips.

Lin Beixuan frowned slightly. It was not until now that he understood the key to this local law. In fact, to put it nicely, it was just borrowing force.

A method of using the power of Sun Kaoyi Bogong to fight against evil forces.

“No wonder after the old beggar recited the formula, the gate of the land god’s mansion appeared behind him, and the statue inside was also the other party’s statue. Everything can be explained now!”

"So the gate that I raised behind the Ruan family was actually borrowed by me using the power of the Ghost Hall."

After thinking all this through, Lin Beixuan felt that his mind was clear, and things that he didn't understand before became clear to him.

It turns out that those things that seemed so awesome before were not actually due to one’s own strength.

In other words, if he wanted to formally embark on the path of cultivation, the first step would be to build his own residence.

"Borrowing other people's strength is not as stable as your own strength!"

Looking at the golden sword light emanating from his fingertips, Lin Beixuan shook his head and sighed, and the excitement in his heart gradually subsided.

No wonder the Di Gong Fa can be easily learned after mastering the Qi. It turns out that it is a method of taking shortcuts and cannot lead people to the right path.

Perhaps, eating qi will do the trick.

Lin Beixuan narrowed his eyes slightly, and took the Food and Breath Technique more seriously.

Although this method of eating air consumes turbid air, it is not impossible to nourish one's own Qi by eating this turbid air.

What belongs to you is the most important.

Swallow the foul air of the headless zombies under your feet, and a prompt will appear on the panel.

[You swallowed the turbid qi of the zombies, breaking the evil spirit +0.5. ]

Although it was much less than the reward obtained from the first time of swallowing turbid air, it was at least some rare attribute points such as Breaking Evil, which was barely acceptable.

After removing the sword from his fingertips, Lin Beixuan made some preparations and then quietly sneaked outside the grave again.

Just now, through observing the qi, he saw that in addition to the gray-black gas rising from the dead person's grave, there was also a faint trace of red that looked like a flame.

The ghosts were all covered with grey gas, and the red color was particularly conspicuous among them, so Lin Beixuan noticed it immediately. Leaning against a big tree outside the grave of the dead, Lin Beixuan looked inside with wide eyes.

The red color is so out of place inside. Either there is something more terrifying than zombies and ghosts, or there is a treasure hidden inside.

Even stones and trees have their own aura. There is no reason for a special aura to be born for no reason.

It was because he understood this that Lin Beixuan decided to go to the grave of the dead again. Even if there was really nothing there, he could kill some zombies to level up.

"Ping'an, it's up to you." Lin Beixuan winked at the infant spirit.

"Whether I can gain any benefit from this wave depends on how good my son is at pulling monsters!"

The baby spirit's face fell, and its cute facial features wrinkled. It wanted to refuse, but then it thought of what its mother told it before she died. In the end, it sighed like a little adult and floated towards the grave.

Seeing the infant spirit staggering into the grave of the dead, aiming at a lone zombie and then grabbing its head and beating it like a ghost, the skillful movements made Lin Beixuan smile with relief.

Soon a zombie was lured over. Lin Beixuan repeated the same action as last time, wielding the hatchet and chopping off the zombie's head in an instant.

[You swallowed the turbid air of the zombies, and your body becomes lighter by +0.5. ]

After swallowing a wisp of turbid air into his stomach, Lin Beixuan felt his body become slightly lighter.

make persistent efforts!

This time, Lin Beixuan didn't even need to remind him. The baby spirit just took a look and then obediently floated towards the dead body's grave again.

[You swallowed the turbid air of the zombies, and your body becomes lighter by +0.5. ]

[You swallowed the turbid air of the resentful spirit, strength +0.3. ]

……

After going back and forth dozens of times, the infant spirit finally couldn't bear it anymore and fell directly into Lin Beixuan's arms.

Looking at the baby spirit lying exhausted in his arms, Lin Beixuan smiled and rubbed its head.

"You've worked hard. I'll find something to replenish you later."

Although the distance back and forth was not far, the infant spirit's frequent use of the Ghost Wall had caused considerable damage to itself. It had already tried its best to hold on until now.

Placing the infant spirit and the cloth bag he was carrying on a stone nearby, Lin Beixuan traveled lightly, carrying only a hatchet and the Ghost Hall, and walked towards the cemetery.

After killing dozens of zombies in a row, his personal attributes have reached a very impressive level.

The strength officially broke through 10 points, and it also brought with it lightness +3, breaking evil spirits +4 when not wearing a vicious fate, speed +5... These are all the gains of tonight.

After his strength reached 10 points, Lin Beixuan found that his physical fitness seemed to have reached a new level, roughly estimated to be the strength of two adults.

Not only that, he also felt something extra in his body. It was a stream of energy. This energy spread through his limbs and bones, and finally circulated in the meridians of his right hand.

Nothing could be seen on the surface, but when he tried to use the energy in his right arm, the muscles in his right arm would instantly swell, emitting scorching heat, and the power was several times greater than normal.

“Is this my own energy?”

Lin Beixuan was somewhat confused, but at the same time he was also looking forward to what changes would happen to his other attribute points after they were increased to 10 points.
