Chapter 88: Plane merchants! All of them are thieves!

At level five you can access the power of the realm for the first time.

This is something that is simply unimaginable in other worlds. Even in the Forgotten Kingdom with a highly advanced magical civilization, there is only one kind of person who can enjoy this treatment, and that is the legendary - the God's Favored One.

However, the gods favored people visited the realm of gods, which was equivalent to borrowing the power of others, which could be taken back by gods at any time. But it was different in the weird country, where the laws of the realm visited were all their own power.

Under normal circumstances, professionals can access the first domain law after reaching the legendary level. However, in the weird kingdom, as long as you reach the extraordinary level five, you are qualified to access the power of the law that only the first legendary level can possess.

The first law that Sean is currently visiting is the power of [knowledge]. Although it is a distorted law from the old days, it is powerful enough that even the life form has changed slightly.

This is unimaginable in any world!

In other words, to some extent, all extraordinary beings are potential "God-favored ones" of the Old Ones, because the source of the extraordinary essence they use is the Old Ones who mastered the laws of the world.

"This place is different from all the other worlds!"

"The [Road to Godhood] in the Weird Kingdom is completely open!"

Xiao En has accumulated a lot of extraordinary knowledge during this period of time. After he accessed the power of the [Knowledge] field, the most intuitive feeling in his mind was that he was only at the fifth level of extraordinary knowledge, but he had already touched a trace of the power of the law.

This means that he has already begun laying the groundwork for his future "road to becoming a god".

Xiao En has mastered the knowledge of other worlds. No matter whether it is the Grey Eagle Kingdom, the Forgotten Kingdom, or the Savage Kingdom, where the souls from other worlds come from, no world is completely open to the "Road to Deification".

The gods have set extremely high thresholds for the road to deification. Some worlds have even completely blocked the road to deification for fear that successors would challenge their supreme authority.

Normally, only high-level legends, or even demigods, are qualified to get involved in the laws represented by the Road to Deification.

But in this chaotic and bizarre country, the road to becoming a god has no threshold or barrier at all. As long as you are a transcendent, as long as you have the ability to access the first sequence concept, you are qualified to embark on the road to becoming a god and master a trace of the original power of the law.

"How crazy this is!..." Sean murmured.

There is no threshold at all, that is the highest threshold!

This in itself is an extremely crazy thing, because anyone can take the path to becoming a god, which means no one can expect an easy life.

"The first order of a warrior is the law of courage."

"After completing the path of destiny and changing the laws, you will be promoted to the realm of [Courage]. If you start the deification ceremony, you will become the [God of Courage]!"

"Hold!"

"How many people will compete for the position of [Courage]?"

No wonder all the demigods on the path of death are stuck.

It is the laws of the world that force them to kill each other, but as beings of the same level, and the power of the realm of death, how can it be so easy to kill each other? The demigod lich cannot be killed unless the life box is destroyed. Fighting for a long time is nothing more than destroying the bones that make up the body.

Moreover, in the situation of the Weird Country, killing each other can be said to be the fastest death, and there is a group of Old Ones outside who are eyeing them covetously.

In this case, Xiao En, who is eligible to inherit the estate, is undoubtedly the easiest one to attack.

Inside the Eye Demon's lair.

Xiao En slowly opened his eyes and gave a bitter smile.

He has mastered the power of the [knowledge] sequence, which means that all people on the path of knowledge in the future are his potential competitors.

He would find ways to seize more knowledge and laws from his old family members.

But the question is, do others think so?

I'm afraid someone will target our own people?
"Part of the legacy of the nameless man must be related to the law of death."

"I was promoted with the power of the knowledge sequence, which meant I temporarily avoided competing with them."

When raising pigs, you must first make sure they are well fed.

Xiao En has now changed his promotion track. They are no longer on the same track, so the relationship of potential competitors is naturally dissolved. Unless Xiao En masters the root law of "Death", they will become competitors of each other.

Ms. Hecate's situation is probably not easy either. The paths of death seem to be united, but due to the rules of this world, many demigods of death are probably only physically united but spiritually divided.

They have to be both partners and rivals.

The struggle among those who want to become gods is extremely cruel, because in the end only one can be promoted to true god!
"If I ascend with the Law of Death, in the future I will either challenge other demigods of death or look for the Old Ones who possess the Law of Death."

But the Old Ones are completely immune to the same kind of laws because they possess the corresponding conceptual laws.

Using necromancy to kill a Grim Reaper is a joke.

But their strongest power is necromancy.

This is an unsolvable dead end.

The world rules of the weird kingdom have trapped everyone, and the completely open road to becoming a god is forcing them to kill each other, but the problem is that in such a world that is about to be destroyed, if humans start fighting among themselves, I am afraid that the process of destruction will only step on the accelerator and rush all the way.

"Once anyone starts the deification ceremony, they may be besieged by the crowd!"

The deification ceremony requires concentrating the laws of the corresponding concepts on one person, transforming the realm of death into the priesthood of death, and ultimately directly affecting the concept of death in the entire world.

No one dares to act rashly!

"Only the nameless people of the Dark Age can sacrifice themselves and fight to save humanity. Who else is willing to become someone else's sacrifice?"

“How many people spend their entire lives but still fail to embark on the path of destiny.”

"Among the legendary warriors who have finally completed their destiny, is there any one willing to become a stepping stone for others to become gods?"

The last idealists all fell in the most desperate and cruel dark age.

Sean is not an idealist, he cannot sacrifice himself for others.

This deadlock has probably lasted for a long time.

Who would have thought that the strongest path to death for mankind is actually the most inward-looking track of destiny.

There can only be one true god in the weird kingdom. Unable to bear the crazy pollution, the last destiny of mankind had to share the "death", which created many death demigods. But even so, the forced promotion across the paths also caused these people to gradually fall madly, and the successors simply had no ability to re-concentrate the power of the "death" law.

A powerful True God of Death was forcibly divided into more than seventy Demigods of Death.

Finally, the power of the Path of Death continued to divide, resulting in no one being able to condense the laws of the priesthood of Death.

The power of this law is too dispersed.

"If we want a real god of death to appear, there can't be so many demigods of death in the weird kingdom!..."

"But who would be willing to perish?"

The power of the Demigod Lich is very strong, but there is a problem: they themselves are not susceptible to instant death spells, so when a Demigod Lich fights another Demigod Lich, many of the abilities of both will be destroyed, and neither can do anything to the other.

If you are attacked by someone, and you are a human and the other party is a lich, your finger of death will have no effect. If the other party uses the finger of death to attack you, you may die instantly.

This is really a loss.

"No wonder Amon said there are already enough liches in this world!" Sean began to understand what Amon said at that time.

Everyone wants to save their lives and is afraid of being ambushed.

The most life-saving transformation form on the Path of Death is the Lich. The Lich has a Life Box, and the Lich can be resurrected continuously as long as the Life Box is not destroyed. In the end, all the people who survived the Path of Death are Liches.

Lady Hecate is not a lich, probably because she is particularly good at fighting.

Aamon said that if Sean didn't want to become a lich, he had to listen to his arrangements. Sean felt his scalp tingling just thinking that all his future competitors would be liches. This was forcing him to transform into a lich.

It's completely inward-looking!
If this deadlock is not broken, the real world can only barely protect itself forever. Otherwise, it is necessary to promote across fields and find related concepts from the concept of death to see if the corresponding priesthood law can be condensed.

The name of Ms. Hecate contains concepts such as the underworld, hell, ghosts, roads, etc., which should be an attempt.

Since the Dark Ages, the Weird Kingdom has not yet produced a true god who can condense the laws of the world.

Night falls.

Xiao En prepared himself to get through the second night here.

In any case, the internal circulation of the same sequence path will only happen after the Destiny Legend. If you have just been promoted and only grasped a trace of the power of the law, you don't need to think so much. The extraordinary person must first possess the "field" of the corresponding concept before it can be transformed into a "priesthood" of higher authority.

From now on, Xiao En just needs to be careful of the extraordinary people who share the same path as him.

If everyone is a god-ascending person, then there is no god-ascending person!
No wonder some people in the real world just lie down and never move up in their entire lives.

sizzle.

There was another strange sound of flying in the air outside. It was definitely the group of flying-headed barbarians without having to look. However, this time they were hovering over the Eye Demon's territory, as if they had discovered traces of the fighting here during the day.

Xiao En suddenly became nervous.

Fortunately, these flying-head barbarians still seemed to be somewhat afraid of the Eye Demon. They circled at a low altitude and finally followed the Horror Ghost to fly away from the area.

They were probably a little scared, wondering if there was a more ruthless one coming.

Ding!
An unknown amount of time had passed before the warning magic that Sean had set up was suddenly triggered. An alarm sounded in his heart, and he immediately stood up, fully armed, and walked to the door cautiously.

somebody is coming!

The other party triggered Sean's warning trap, and he even heard a slight sound of footsteps.

In the weird country, those who come out at night are tough guys. The footsteps outside were getting closer and closer, but the other party did not come in. It seemed to be a little afraid. It stood cautiously outside the cave, about ten meters away.

"Your Excellency inside."

A hoarse and sharp male voice sounded, as if it had a hint of glass friction, and it said to the cave: "I am Balder the Screamer. As you can see, I am a herding night witch."

Night witch?

That strange creature that passed by yesterday?
It hasn't left yet?

Aren't Night Witches nomadic? Why are they still around here?

Xiao En covered his face with a cloak, making himself look more like a strange creature. He slowly walked to the door and said in a cold tone, "What's the matter?"

The Screamer - Balder raised his head, its exposed face was dark blue, just like a ghost, with a mouth full of fine and sharp teeth, and there was residual blood at the corners of his mouth. There were pieces of soul worm meat in the gaps between his teeth, as if he had just eaten.

It seemed to be observing Xiao En in front of it, with a hint of ill intent in its eyes, but it restrained itself because it could not tell how strong Xiao En was.

It leaned forward slightly and said, "I just found that this place seems to have a new owner."

"Come over to say hello."

The Screamer - Balder speaks politely and gentlemanly, but his face is more ferocious than a demon, as if he will choose someone to eat at any time.

As long as they have the strength, strange creatures will become very "polite".

Xiao En had no expression on his face, and his tone was still cold as before: "Then you can leave now."

He found that a strange eyeball suddenly grew in the other person's palm. The eyeball glanced at Xiao En secretly, but it seemed that it still had no gain, so it reluctantly shrank back into the flesh.

However, after this action, the Night Wizard in front of him became more cautious and respectful.

Screamer Balder did not leave, but continued to introduce himself: "As you can see, in addition to being a herding night witch, I am also a walking plane merchant."

"I travel between the material plane, the plane of shadow, and the spirit plane."

"If you need anything, you can come to me."

Plane merchant?

The other party's words aroused Xiao En's interest, and he said calmly: "So what goods do you have?"

The night wizard in front of him saw that Sean was interested, and raised his hand slightly. A strange parchment flew over, and there seemed to be a lot of product information written on it in secret words.

It said respectfully, "The goods are not suitable to be brought out. It is too dangerous."

"This is the inventory list of our Night Witch Chamber of Commerce."

Xiao En didn't reach out to take it. Behind him, three invisible hands stretched out and directly caught the parchment floating in the air.

It's human skin.

Xiao En's pupils shrank slightly. While paying attention to the Night Wizard not far away, he quickly glanced at the secret text above.

The Night Witch seemed to sense the presence of the invisible hand and subconsciously took half a step back.

Everyone is very cautious.

The above list of items is a bit shocking, because the most of the goods are not extraordinary relics and rare equipment, but various blood sacrifice materials, the most important of which is humans. Many creatures here rely on blood sacrifice rituals to get a little gift from the old days, and the final route of promotion is the old days' family.

Most of the species on the list are completely degenerate human subspecies, some of which can be traded in large quantities like cattle and sheep.

"It's an evil merchant from another dimension!" Xiao En narrowed his eyes slightly.

There are indeed a lot of good stuff on it, and there are even some extraordinary relics that can only be found in the spirit world. Xiao En looked at the other party and said expressionlessly: "How do you trade?"

Night Witch said: "Living souls, soul stones, rare objects, extraordinary relics, etc. are all fine."

“We have professional appraisers.”

"Just tell me what you need and I'll bring it to you the next time I return to the material plane."

It seems that he might really be a dimensional businessman.

But what merchant would go out without goods? Black market? Robbery? Black robs black?

The goods on the human skin paper use souls and soul stones as currency units. There are dozens of items on the list, but the prices are very expensive. Although Xiao En has some rare objects and relics, he may not be able to exchange them.

The other party didn't come here to make a deal, probably just to test him.

Xiao En doesn't think that Night Witch is a serious plane businessman.

He groaned for a moment and said, "I am very interested in the Dark Ritual Book above."

Sean now has to suppress the spiritual pollution. The things on the list are weirder than each other. They are all relics from the spiritual world, and even the head of a headless horseman is provided. Only one thing looks like a book and can provide more knowledge.

Hearing this, Ye Wu nodded slightly and said respectfully, "Okay."

"I will return to the material plane the day after tomorrow and bring you what you need."

After saying that, it bowed its head, gestured, and turned to walk into the darkness.

sizzle.

Under the dark night, a large group of soul worms swarmed over and followed the night witch. The soul worms that once caused Xiao En a little trouble were like a group of well-behaved cattle and sheep under its hands.

five minutes later.

After walking out of the Eye Demon's territory, the Night Witch stopped and asked in a cold voice, "Is it a human?"

The flesh on its chest began to wriggle, and a hollow human face appeared on its chest. The face thought for a moment, then slowly said, "No."

"He's just pretending to be human."

"I smell the scent of knowledge. It's crazy and hard to deal with!"

Sean tried his best to disguise himself as a strange creature, but in the eyes of the Night Witch, he was more like a monster who wanted to disguise himself as a human.

There was a brief silence, and the Night Wizard nodded slightly.

It picked up a lazy soul worm and put it into its mouth full of sharp teeth, chewing it. Blood and thick juice flowed out. It greedily ate the last bite and slowly disappeared into the night.

This is its working meal.

The night witches who herd souls all serve some very powerful evil creatures. Plane merchant is just one of its identities. It also has many other identities, such as robber.

In the darkness, the hollow human face on the Night Witch's chest asked, "Will we come back?"

Night Witch said calmly: "Of course I will come back."

"But that list of goods is fake. We don't have those goods at all."

The empty face was silent for a moment, then said in a playful tone: "Then you have to find a good helper first."

"The other party might be a wizard."

The Night Wizard nodded slightly and said with a sinister smile: "I know. It is because he is a wizard that I have to find a way to eat him."

The extraordinary people on the wizard path all have very strong family backgrounds.

Normally, the value of a wizard is several times higher than that of other extraordinary people. If you can kill a wizard, you can at least find several extraordinary items. If you can absorb the other party's soul, there are also many beings in the spirit world who will be interested in the wizard's soul.

This is a high-risk, high-reward deal.

Eye Demon Lair.

Xiao En watched the Night Wizard leave vigilantly. He even summoned invisible servants to follow him quietly. Only after he was sure that the target had left did he breathe a sigh of relief.

"We can't stay here any longer!"

Xiao En would never believe the words of an evil demon. The Night Witch and the Ghost Queen were both the most cunning evil spirits. The reason why it did not take action was that it was not sure it could defeat Xiao En.

Of course, Xiao En didn't take action because he was not sure he could kill the other party.

If they don't fight, it's possible that both sides may take a step back, but once they start fighting, it's a fight to the death. These inter-dimensional monsters are very difficult to deal with.

"gone?"

Sean saw the invisible servant returning and decided to leave before dawn.

His trial is almost over, and then he can return to Abyss City to rest.

Xiao En frowned and said, "Its malicious intent is obvious."

“I will definitely come back.”

"Can Abyss City get explosives?"

Thinking of this, Xiao En looked at the invisible servant in front of him, and his eyes became much kinder.
