676 Netherworld Merit Green Lotus (2)
However, before his killing intent could boil, his brewing emotions were interrupted.
Below, an unfamiliar yet familiar strange fluctuation appeared.
Jiang Li suddenly recalled that during the process of him piecing together the territory, there was indeed something that was deeply involved and contributed more than him.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Under the envelopment of the resplendent golden light, a pitch-black chain flew out from the center of the collision.
The chain swayed nimbly in the air, like a dog that had been locked up at home for a long time and was interested in everything.
After playing for a while, it noticed Jiang Li who was standing not far away.
The black chain immediately flew over excitedly and circled around Jiang Li’s body. It was really like a pet that could even act cute.
This chain was naturally the Dragon Imprisoning Lock!
Yes, Nüwa had refined the Five-Colored Divine Stone to nourish the heavens. Even the remaining shards had been given a lot of merit.
The Dragon Imprisoning Lock occupied the most important position in the process of combining the Netherworld. It was reasonable for it to receive half of the merit.
At this moment, a sword tip suddenly appeared above Jiang Li’s head.
The Immortal Slaying Flying Sword also sensed the change in its old friend and came out to greet the Dragon Imprisoning Lock.
When the Immortal Slaying Flying Sword was created, it did not have a hilt. There was only a ring that connected to the Dragon Imprisoning Lock on the hilt.
Speaking of which, these two artifacts could be considered ‘childhood sweethearts’.
Now that its old friend had also developed intelligence, the Immortal Slaying Flying Sword also revealed happy emotions.
These two guys still wanted to fuse together again to test the power of their combination.
It was not until Jiang Li reached out to comfort him that it stopped.
The Immortal Slaying Flying Sword returned to his head. The Dragon Imprisoning Lock still liked to wrap around his waist the most.
Jiang Li had tried many methods to refine this ancient immortal artifact.
Sometimes, he would use spiritual qi to nourish it at all times, wanting it to recover some of its former power.
However, just like dried grapes that could not be restored to their original state even after soaking in water, his actions were almost useless.
Due to its indestructible characteristics and the fact that the methods of the cultivation world could not refine it, this matter had been delayed.
In the future, if he obtained more Netherworld merit, he would continue to condense the green lotus like this.
The high-grade Merit Blessing in the continent of the Nine Provinces should have condensed into a similar Merit Lotus Flower.
He did not know what this Netherworld Green Lotus had to do with the legendary twelfth-grade Merit Golden Lotus.
The initial duration of the [Netherworld Green Lotus] status was increased to 30 years compared to the previous seven days of Merit Blessing.
If not for the fact that the Heavenly Dao of the Nine Provinces was too stingy, it should be that after the merit transformed into a green lotus, it became more corporeal and no longer dissipated easily.
As for the effect, other than overlapping with the high-grade Merit Blessing, this status also directly made him a Merit Yin Official of the Netherworld.
He could also possess a Netherworld territory that spanned 3,000 miles. Although this territory could not be moved after being chosen, the effect was enough to compare to the Ground Control Flag.
The attribute of immunity to the rules of the Netherworld was very easy to understand.
Previously, he had been puzzled as to why the Northern Profound Hall Master, Qiu Shui, could walk freely in the Netherworld as a living person. Moreover, the rules of places like the Back Yin Mountain and Tragic Death City were completely useless to him.
Now, he had finally found the answer. It was the power of virtuous merit of the Netherworld that helped him escape these rules.
Of course, the effect of the first-grade Green Lotus was naturally far inferior to the reincarnation of Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha.
However, this merit status could clearly be improved.
As long as Jiang Li continued to think of a way to combine the other Netherworld fragments, he would be able to continuously obtain a large amount of Netherworld merit.
If he could completely restore the Netherworld by himself, he might be qualified to sit on the throne as the new “King of Hell”.
Apart from these, he also obtained a skill specially used to create Yin Soldiers.
This Yin Soldier Awakening was even more brilliant than Jiang Li’s Demon Awakening Technique back then. The Yin Soldiers he awakened were equivalent to ‘civil servants’ officially conferred by the Netherworld.
Apart from the most basic increase in strength, Yin soldiers also had a special deterrence ability. Even ghosts ten times stronger than Yin Soldiers did not dare to act rashly.
Moreover, even experts did not dare to easily kill a large number of Yin Soldiers.
This was because killing an official “civil servant” would shorten their lifespan.
In ancient times, if one casually killed Yin Soldiers, the price was a hundred years of lifespan for each, and they would suffer at least 18 levels of hell after death.
However, other than the necessary spiritual qi and Yin qi, the Yin Soldiers had to consume the creator’s own Netherworld merit.
The power of virtuous merit was so precious, so who would be willing to use it casually?
It was precisely because of this that Yin Soldiers did not flood the world.
Most of those big shots of the Netherworld would only awaken the dead who had the power of virtuous merit. Because that way, they would not consume their own merit.
As for Jiang Li, after pressing the plus button for five seconds, he was thinking if he should enlighten all the ghosts in Fengdu City.
