Chapter 500 – The Young Man’s Journey

Closer together, Xu Qi’an could even see a hint of ecstasy in the black bean-like eyes of the Seven Extremities Compass.

It feels like a dude villain seeing a stunning beauty ……… Xu Qi Anxin spat out a sentence with an odd expression, and then, he found that the seven absolute compulsion was gone.

It disappeared abruptly, like an invisible force erasing it out of thin air.

This is the corpse of the Heavenly Compass Elder, used the “unknowable” characteristic? No, it is still in the ……… next moment, Xu Qi’an rejected his own speculation, in his line of sight, saw a faint shadow, around behind him.

Why does it feel like it’s hunting?

Xu Qi’an suddenly felt the urge to protect the back of his neck and charge forward.

Such an impulsive feeling welled up, and then a sharp pain shot through the back of his neck, and the flesh felt as if it had been cut hard by something.

It dawned on him that the urge to protect the back of his neck that had just arisen was his residual, early warning of the crisis.

At the back of his neck, the scarlet-colored Seven Extinction Compass, using the sharp ends of its knuckles, easily cut through Xu Qi’an’s flesh, crimson blood flowing.

It stabbed one of its knobby limbs, deep into Xu Qi’an’s vertebrae, seemingly linking to this host’s nervous system.

Xu Qi’an’s eyes instantly turned crimson, a low roar emanating uncontrollably from his throat, his face displaying a kind of insanity that could only come from pain to the extreme.

“There are seven schools of Southern Border Compulsion, but regardless of the school, the Companions will cultivate an instinctive parasite.”

Supervisor Zheng raised his hand and pressed downward, an invisible force descended from the heavens, making Xu Qi’an unable to move, only able to bear the inhuman pain alive.

“The native compulsion and the host are in a symbiotic relationship, living and dying with the same life, a normal Compassionist is implanted with the native compulsion from the time they are just born, and at the latest at the age of ten years old they are implanted with the native compulsion.

“The implanted instinctive parasites are in the same juvenile age as they are, so that both sides can be strengthened by growing together, and the backlash of the parasites can be mitigated.”

That’s right, the implantation of the native parasites will suffer a backlash, because the essence of this technique is the “unification of human parasites”, which is contrary to the norm of life.

Therefore, in order to increase the success rate, a compounder is usually decided on the path of cultivation at a young age.

Xu Qi’an was an adult male, and the Seven Extinction Compass was also a mature compulsion, so the backlash was extremely great.

The second knuckle stabbed into the flesh and blood, connecting to the nerves, and Xu Qi’an trembled, the muscles in his cheeks quivering, his mouth quivering, and his body trembling with pain.

Third root Fourth root Fifth root …….. Each of the knuckles stabbed into the flesh and blood, pausing for half a quarter of an hour to give the human and the parasite enough time to cushion each other.

Xu Qi’an only felt that every part of his body was aching, his cells felt like they were being torn apart, and the pain was no less than digesting the blood elixir left behind by Wei Yuan.

If the digestive blood elixir is a forceful catalyst for the cells, forcing them to evolve.

Accommodating the seven destructive compulsions, then, is a destruction of cells, of the genetic chain.

He should have died of genetic collapse during the process of accommodating the Seven Extinction Compulsion, but the Third Grade Martial Artist’s transcendent mortal physique allowed him to resist this backlash.

When the sixth segmented limb pierced into the flesh and blood, connecting the nerves, the scarlet-colored Seven Extinction Compass contracted the six segmented limbs, and its body embedded itself into the flesh and blood little by little, clinging to the vertebrae and hiding itself.

Seeing this, the Supervisor was popping out a thin sheep’s intestine thread, which seemed to be given life, automatically sewing up the wound, and also tied a bow in a very spiritual way.

“How does it feel?”

The supervisor was asking with a smirk.

Xu Qi’an didn’t reply as he closed his eyes and sensed seven abilities that originated from instinct and were imprinted in his genes.

The first is called the Heavenly Compass, which recognizes the time of the day, knows the location, moves the stars and peers into the heavens.

Most members of the Heavenly Compassion tribe hovered at the level of “knowing the time of day and the location of the land”, doing things like fixing the yellow calendar and setting the festivals, and making outstanding contributions to the farming business of the Compassion tribe.

Moving the stars was an ability that Heavenly Compasses only possessed when they were cultivated to a high level.

Xu Qi’an had already seen the ability it manifested – the “unknowable” characteristic.

Back then, the Heavenly Compass Elder had used the move of moving the stars to conceal the Supervisor’s perception, which was the most central ability of the Heavenly Compass Ministry.

As for prying into the heavens, the Celestial Compass Clansmen who had reached a certain level were able to accidentally glimpse a corner of the future, a one-sided, vague glimpse.

It was this ability that allowed the prophets of the Heavenly Compassion Ministry to predict that the Compassion God would eventually awaken and turn the Nine States into a world of only compasses.

Of course, this couldn’t be compared to a First Grade Warlock’s prying into the heavens.

If the Heavenly Compass’s prying into the heavens was described as a photo without cause and effect, then the First Grade Heavenly Fate Master’s prying into the heavens was a future drama.

There is a fundamental difference between the two.

The side effect is that the host’s mood will change according to the surrounding environment, for example, in cloudy and rainy weather, the mood will become extraordinarily depressed. On a sunny day, it will be cheerful and lively ……..

……….

The second is called a force compulsion, which makes the host’s five senses and six senses extra sharp, as well as enhances qi and possesses the ability to heal itself.

The latter two are core competencies.

The force compulsion department’s compulsion master, qi power crowns the world, in the same realm, even if it is a martial artist who sharpened his physique, compared to the competition brawn will also fall behind.

What Force Compassionate Masters were best at was one power, in addition, they also possessed a terrifying self-healing ability.

Below the third rank, any injury can be recovered as long as they are not killed instantly.

However, depending on the extent of the injury, the recovery period will vary.

The side effect is that the amount of food the host eats will skyrocket, and the higher the cultivation level, the more he eats.

………

The third is called love compulsion, which releases a colorless and odorless gas that hypnotizes the surrounding creatures, be they humans, animals or plants.

In addition, a love compulsion can also plant a sub-compulsion in the target’s body, so that the other party cannot leave them for a lifetime. Love Compass masters often use these tactics to control their slaves and even their lovers.

In addition to these, the love compulsion can also make one’s skin smooth and one’s temperament outstanding, molding one’s appearance and body to be extremely attractive to the opposite sex.

It will even target and transform the body so that it is tight or persistent.

The side effect is that the host’s lust will become extraordinarily high, and all day and night will be all that’s on his mind.

………

The fourth type is called poisonous compulsion, this compulsion allows the host to utilize the different environments and conditions around them to create different toxins, which are extremely versatile in their effects.

Sometimes some poisons can have a life-saving effect, depending on the situation, of course.

The side effect is that a certain amount of poison, or arsenic, or poisonous glands of vipers, etc., must be swallowed every day.

……….

The fifth type is called heart compulsion, the core is four words “heart to heart”, heart compulsion master can communicate with the target to hook a certain emotion, and then seize this emotion, to influence each other.

For creatures of a certain level of intelligence, it can only affect them for a moment, but for creatures of lesser intelligence, it can be long-lasting and persistent.

The representative creature of the former is man, and the representative creature of the latter is the beast.

Therefore, the Heart Compass is also known as the “Beast Control Compass” by outsiders, and Compass Masters of the Heart Compass Department often use it to manipulate beasts, insects, snakes, and so on.

The side effect is that the host can’t help but want to talk to and be around animals every day, and many of the Companions in the Heart Compulsion Department often have super-friendships with beasts because of this side effect.

……….

The sixth type is called the Dark Compass, which can conceal its breath and form, and specializes in melting into the shadows and jumping by means of the shadows, such as the Shadow.

Every Dark Compassionist is a terrifying assassin, killing invisibly, and you never know when they’ll be close to you.

It’s worth noting that Wulf specializes in Dark Companions.

The side effect is that the host will subconsciously go into dark, hidden corners whenever he sees them; the host will have to hide himself for at least two hours every day without being discovered by anyone.

………..

The seventh type is called Corpse Compulsion, where the mother compulsion gives birth to a child compulsion that is lodged in a corpse, and the host can manipulate the corpse by influencing the child compulsion through the mother compulsion.

The biggest difference with Voodoo’s body control is that the former is usually whored out only once, used and discarded.

In the latter case, after the sub-compassion is lodged in the corpse, it will fuse with the corpse as one, and the sub-compassion will become stronger as the mother becomes stronger, and accordingly, the corpse will also become stronger and stronger.

A Corpse Compass Master of the Third Grade could differentiate at least twenty sub-compasses of the Fourth Grade realm, and a number of other realms.

There is another point, if the sub-compassion is lodged in a corpse that has just died, it is analogous to taking over the body, and will retain the dead person’s pre-body abilities and qi, and how much will be preserved will depend on the cultivation level of the composter.

The side effect is that the host develops an extremely strong necrophilia, and necrophiliacs often have indescribable relationships with corpses because of this side effect.

………..

“Very powerful, the Seven Extinction Compulsion is very powerful, unfortunately, it is now in its preliminary awakening, and I can only utilize some of its ability to do the basics. On the contrary, the Heavenly Compassion seems to be developed well, and I can directly perform the ability of Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo. Only, the side effects of the Seven Extinction Compulsion ………”

When Xu Qi’an said this, he suddenly paused, his expression complicated.

The side effects of the other parasites were fine, but the side effects of the love parasites, heart parasites, and corpse parasites were a perfect match, and did not leave anyone alive.

Heart and Corpse Compulsions cause the host to develop strong, hyper-friendship urges towards beasts and corpses, and then, at this juncture, the side effects of Love Compulsions come ………

Xu Qi’an is very worried about his future mental health.

The supervisor was carrying his hands behind his back and smiled:

“In fact, those side effects are the nutrients for the compulsion to grow, if you keep it up day after day, the Seven Extinction Compulsion will slowly grow and expand, and your cultivation will become higher and higher. Even if you are initially awakened, under the fifth rank, you’ll have few opponents.”

Xu Qi’an sighed, “The earth is not worth it.”

At those words, the Supervisor slowly lost his smile, turned around, and let out a light sigh as well.

After a long time, he fished out a conch inscribed with array patterns from his sleeve and threw it over, saying:

“If there’s anything you need help with, you contact him, my second disciple, Sun Xuanji.”

What kind of strange character will Supervisor Zheng s second disciple be ……… Xu Qi an took the conch and silently glanced at Supervisor Zheng.

His eyes seemed to pierce some painful spot deep inside the Supervisor’s heart, and the old Supervisor faintly said:

“Get lost!”

…………

Cabinet, Chief Counselor Wang stamped the notice with the Great Seal of the Chief Counselor of the Cabinet, and then had the mandarins send the notice to the palace.

With that done, the Lord Chief Auxiliary got up, went to the window, pushed it open, and moved his gaze from the courtyard all the way to the azure sky.

Chief Wang looked out wordlessly, only feeling that today’s sky was exceptionally clear.

A new era is upon us!

………..

The country can not be without a king for a day, and more urgent than this sentence to clarify the truth, send the residence of the newspaper to the local government, posting the beginning and end of the scourge of the capital; send notices to notify the people of the capital, to inform the incident.

The longer things drag on like this, the easier it is to make a mess.

The Crown Prince, in order to demonstrate his difference from his father, immediately had the Hanlin Academy draft the notice after the previous night’s deliberations, and then, after the Cabinet’s approval, finally posted the notice on the notice walls of the gates of the capital at dawn today.

After dawn, when they saw that the court had finally given their results, they came together in groups.

“What does the notice say? Read it if you can read.”

“Don’t ask me, I can read some words, but I can’t read them when they’re connected.”

You can’t read something like an article just because you can read, you have to be literate enough to understand it.

The mandarin, standing by the wall of notices, scolded, “Silence!”

The people of this era did not have a high cultural penetration rate, and most of them could not understand the content of the notices, so on the day the notices were released, the official would arrange for a mandarin to recite and explain the content of the notices every half an hour.

After a day, news of anything would have spread throughout the capital, and there would no longer be a need for recitation.

The people had long been accustomed to it, and immediately stopped discussing it to listen to the mandarins’ recitation.

After the official read the notice, most of the people understood it, and the scene was instantly clamorous and noisy.

“Faint king!”

“First, he practiced cultivation for twenty years, and then he was compelled by the Witch God Cult to scourge the Dafeng generals; this kind of dim king is rare in the history of the Dafeng.”

“It’s a pity that more than 80,000 generals were killed by a dim king. What is even more unfortunate is that Wei Gong, such a pillar of the town and country, was lost ……… for nothing.”

“Shame on me, I scolded Duke Wei a while ago, he is the true loyal minister, the true pillar of the town.”

Some people stifled their wrists, others pounded their chests in anger.

An old man carrying a load, old and tearful, wailed as he pounded his chest:

“Wei Gong died unjustly ah, Wei Gong is what kind of character, when the battle of Shanhaiguan he won, I did not expect to die in the end in the hands of the fainting king ah ……..”

“Luckily, Xu Yinluo is there to do justice.”

One of the people, with red eyes and clenched fists, gritted his teeth:

“If we didn’t have Xu Yinluo, not only would over 80,000 generals and Duke Wei have given their lives in vain, even we would have to suffer, and sooner or later, the iron hooves of the Witch God Cult would have stepped on the capital.”

“Yes, fortunately there is Xu Yinluo, as long as Xu Yinluo is around, we still have righteousness in Dafeng.”

“Xu Yinluo can kill a dog official, just as he can kill a dimwitted ruler.”

“I thought from the beginning that Xu Yinluo was right, he wouldn’t commit regicide for no reason, he said it all when he broke into the palace that day, the fainting ruler was immoral, Xu Yinluo fought against it, and you still don’t believe me.”

“Who doesn’t believe anymore, I’ve always believed in Xu Yinluo.”

The people hated the fainting ruler and regretted the 80,000 generals and Wei Yuan, but at the same time, they were heartily glad that Dafeng still had Xu Yinluo, as if he had become the embodiment of justice in the hearts of the people.

And the people who were more conservative in their bones and were skeptical about the reasons for regicide were relieved at this point.

Hsu Yinluo is still Hsu Yinluo and has never changed.

“If you ask me, why don’t we just let Xu Yinluo be the emperor.”

A young man subconsciously said what was on his mind.

The clamor immediately quieted, the people looked at each other, but no one refuted the reprimand, falling into a strange silence.

The contents of the notice quickly circulated in the capital, spreading fast, and the people reacted violently, gnashing their teeth at the mention of the fainting ruler, and exchanging praises at the mention of Xu Qi’an.

Some people even wept bitterly and said outright that Xu Yinluo was sent down from heaven to save Da Bong, and that he was not only Da Bong’s conscience, but also Da Bong’s savior.

Yu Yang Guan killed 300,000 enemy troops by himself, and then killed the dim-witted ruler and thwarted the Witch God Cult’s plot to subvert the Dafeng, so this is a savior.

Of course, there is no lack of regret Wei Yuan, but after Wei Yuan, Dafeng has Xu Qi’an, the people’s spirit has a new support.

May Wei Yuan be followed by Da Feng with Xu Qi An …….. Da Qingyi died without regret.

…………

Inner city, a certain small courtyard.

Mu Nanjian sat on a small horse zipper, listening to Auntie Zhang chattering about the contents of the notice, and when she talked about the fainting ruler, she and Auntie Zhang revealed angry expressions together and loudly lashed out.

When talking about Wei Yuan, she and Aunt Zhang lamented the collapse of this pillar of the township together, and together they lamented the 80,000 generals who had donated their lives to the Witch God Cult’s territory.

She looks like the city bitch who sits in the alley and gossips with the women.

When talking about Xu Yinluo, Auntie Zhang was full of praise, saying: If I were twenty years younger, I would definitely be like other young girls, and not Xu Yinluo.

Mu Nanjian then had a wary look on her face.

“By the way, Lady Mu, has your husband not returned for a long time?”

Auntie Zhang asked.

He used to come back every now and then to be in love with his wife, but some time ago he suddenly disappeared, and she never saw Mu Niangzi’s husband again.

“Oh, he’s busy.”

Mu Nanjia whispered.

Her mood dropped for a moment, not very happy, and she sighed quietly as she put her hand on her cheek and looked out over the flowers that filled the yard.

“Knock, knock, knock!”

The door of the courtyard knocked, Mu Nanjian’s dull face, instantly glowed, but then quickly collapsed, don’t turn your face away, don’t go to open the door.

Auntie Zhang let out a light laugh, thinking that it was her husband who had returned and the young lady was gambling.

Then he went over and opened the door.

The courtyard door opened, and a man with an average appearance but a gentle temperament stood at the entrance of the courtyard, holding a horse.

It’s none other than Madam Mu’s husband.

“I’m leaving the capital, will you come with me.”

Munanjia ignored him.

“So, I’m leaving?”

He took his horse and turned to leave.

“Hey!” She shouted.

“Hmm?”

“I want the best inn.”

“Good.”

“Meat at every meal.”

“Good.”

“To have rouge.”

“Good.”

“No bullying.”

“Good.”

“Well, I’d like to ……..”

…………

Dexin Court.

Huaiqing spread out the rice paper, put up his pen, and wrote: “Mo worry about not having a friend in front of you, and who in the world doesn’t know you.”

It also reads, “I hope you will take care of yourself!”

After writing, she ascended to the attic, climbed up to the top and looked at the distant sky in silence.

………

Shao Yin Palace.

Prosper, clad in a fox-fur cloak, came to the attic overlook and neither spoke nor sat, gazing silently into the distance.

After a long time, she murmured, “Look for the return of the king.”

……….

Stargazer Building.

Li Miaozhen sat angrily at the bedroom table with a puffed up look.

Xu Qi’an didn’t agree to travel with her as a companion, saying that the Heavenly Sect Holy Maiden was too dazzling, like a torch in the darkness, and would easily attract Xu Pingfeng, the great enemy.

This reason left Li Miaozhen speechless.

“What do you think he can do as a wastrel with his meager compulsion cultivation? Preferring to travel the rivers and lakes alone.” Li Miaozhen said angrily.

“That stinky man, I can’t say he’s taken other women with him.” Su Su whispered.

“Where does he get other women, other women don’t stay in the capital.” Li Miaozhen bristled.

“What about that Dafeng First Beauty?” Su Su carefully arched his fire.

Li Miaozhen’s face abruptly stiffened and her pupils dilated!

Seven layers.

At the entrance of a certain secret room, Master Hengyuan stood in the corridor with a grave face, both nervousness and anticipation in his expression.

Chu Yuanzhan stood shoulder to shoulder with him and spoke in a deep voice:

“Secretary Song’s method works?”

Hengyuan shook his head, “I don’t know, but it was always a good try, thanks to Daoist Li’s help in extracting his soul.”

After a pause, he said in a low voice, “The only thing I have to worry about in the capital is him, and if he can regain his life, I will be able to leave the capital and travel the rivers and lakes in pursuit of Lord Xu.”

………

Inside the chamber, a child’s eyes opened.

He stared at the roof in a bit of a daze, wondering why he was suddenly in this strange room.

The child sits up and, subconsciously, makes the instinctive sound, “Kung, hi, fai, fai …….”

His eyes widened in surprise; it wasn’t his voice.

Looking around, he saw the body of a large black dog lying beside the flatbed.

He stared blankly at the black dog’s body, and at one point, tears crossed his cheeks, unable to tell if they were sadness or joy.

The child stood up shakily, toddling like a baby.

He reaped the joy of new life, grew bold, and looked to the other body in the chamber, lying on a flat surface, covered with a white cloth.

The child staggered over and, with a few moments of curiosity, uncovered the white cloth.

Underneath the white cloth was a man in green, with gray temples and a handsome face.

He was breathing shallowly, but could not wake up again.

………..

Outside of the city, average looking man, leading a gaunt little mare, with average looking woman sitting on her back.

Complementary and a match made in heaven.

“Come on, walk the jungle together.” He laughed.

The woman with the mediocre posture gave a reserved “hmmm”.

The man laughed out loud, “Jianghu, here I come!”

The woman with the mediocre features rolled her eyes.

“How about I sing you a song?”

“Don’t.”

She refused arrogantly.

………..

I once dreamed of traveling the world with a sword.

See the world in all its splendor

A young heart is always a little crazy.

Now I’m a family man.

………..
