The Ghost's Curse.
Eadric Rong's weapons moved with stunning speed and precision, but they did not contain true energy or pure air.The ghost sneered more deeply, her face growing more sinister in an expression full of contempt. "Just mere sword movements! No pure air at all? Search for death!" Her voice trembled with satisfaction, confident that victory was already in her hands.In the meantime, the ghost was already thinking out of the box, fantasizing about winning the battle."Listen," she said as she glanced at Eadric Rong, who was moving around with what she thought was a non-lethal weapon, "Spirit, a Talisman Master is very powerful. I might be able to increase my spiritual power if I prey on his spirit." The ghost's eyes flashed with evil intent, imagining the power she would gain.PANG!However, the ghost was surprised. Instead of discovering that the weapon slashed by the Talisman Master was broken in her hand, she had to accept the bitter truth.The arrogant ghost could only watch in horror a
Fourth Grade Spirit Master.
"Don't dream! Want to reincarnate?" Eadric Rong shouted, his voice echoing among the great trees of Tanxiang Forest, filled with anger and power.When his eyes caught a faint flash of light that resembled a firefly, darting from the body of the ghost he had just split open, Eadric Rong immediately realized the spirit's intention to flee.Quickly, he let out a sharp curse. "I won't let you!" he muttered in a cold tone, then sprang into action.His right hand moved quickly, throwing out a talisman carved with intricate letters and symbols that seemed to glow in the darkness of the forest.The talisman shot out at an astonishing speed, chasing after the ghostly spirit that was trying to escape.Eadric Rong began to chant the prayers and mantras he had learned from the Taoist teachings, his voice deep and authoritative, seeming to vibrate the surrounding world.His surroundings suddenly changed.The forest, which had once been only dark and silent, now felt eerie, as if it had become a na
Fourth Grade Spirit Master – Part II.
Suddenly, an unexpected shock hit him. Eadric Rong's face instantly changed, his previously calm eyes now wide with astonishment."Fourth Grade Spirit Master? So quickly did I break through after consuming that hungry ghost?" he whispered in a disbelieving tone, but a wide smile immediately spread across his face.Eadric Rong's heart was extremely excited.This was an event that was completely unexpected."It should still take me another two or three months to break through," he said in a voice that was beginning to fill with excitement, "But who would have thought I could do it overnight! How marvelous!"Eadric Rong burst out laughing, the sound of his laughter echoing throughout the Tanxiang Forest.The laughter was not only full of joy but was also filled with spiritual power infused in it, making anyone who heard it inevitably feel trepidation and fear.Eadric Rong was still overwhelmed by an overwhelming sense of joy at his accomplishment that morning. A sense of satisfaction cou
Excitement Hits Lengyang City.
Eadric Rong simply nodded calmly, though in his heart there was a sense of satisfaction that he could not hide.The rays of the morning sun that began to creep up the trees added a warm feeling to his chest, as if even nature was celebrating his achievement. "Then, let's go home, Uncle Yue. I still have many important things to do in the Hall of Fortune Koi."Maybe I'll sell this level four Talisman when we get there," he said in a steady tone, as he stepped onto the train car with many plans in mind.Long story short, Eadric Rong finally arrived at the Koi Hall of Fortune.His quiet steps as he got off the train, sensing a different aura around him.It was as if the wind was carrying the news of his success, and the wise man said that the rumors were very fast circulating—the speed even beating the wind from the North.In no time at all, excitement enveloped Lengyang City.Eadric Rong's name became a byword everywhere, talked about by everyone who passed by the market and even the ve
The Story of Making a Dream.
Duan Jiexin's voice sounded full of menace, his words difficult for ordinary people to understand, but to Eadric Rong, every word carried a deep meaning. Duan Jiexin spoke with an extremely ugly expression, clearly showing how deep his hatred for Eadric Rong ran.Eadric Rong just chuckled, a faint smile forming at the corner of his lips."I don't understand Master Duan's words. Or, do you mean to announce that raising a curious ghost, letting it roam and feast on anything, perhaps even innocent humans, is a noble act?"Eadric Rong then laughed condescendingly, making Duan Jiexin even angrier."Does Master Duan want this secret to be known by everyone in Lengyang City?" he asked in a sharper tone, while his wide sleeves rustled softly as he waved a hand in an indifferent manner.Eadric Rong's words pierced right into Duan Jiexin's heart.Recently, there had been frequent murders with unclear causes in Lengyang City. The city's security forces had been unable to identify who was behind
Clean Clothes Beggar.
In the room reserved for Talisman Masters, Eadric Rong sat upright on a wooden bench.The room was spacious, the walls adorned with calligraphic poetry and profound Taoist teachings.The dim light of the oil lamps cast soft shadows on the walls. Windows latticed with Xuan paper added to the ancient and mysterious feel. Shadows of patrolling guards could be seen faintly pacing back and forth behind windows and doors.The light of the oil lamp swayed again, creating a play of shadows that added depth to Eadric Rong's face.His sharp eyes flashed as he concentratedly browsed through page after page of an ancient book. He had just bought the book from the Black Market, at a stall owned by Merchant Qiang, who was famous for his collection of rare and valuable items."What a hidden treasure this Lengyang City Black Market is," Eadric Rong whispered, his voice barely audible but full of admiration that welled up from within his heart."No one realizes that this is a copy of a precious spirit
Summer Full Night - Part I.
“Then, pack me ten. Make sure they're still hot, just remove them from the cauldron,” she pleaded, hoping the warmth of the onde-onde would warm her cold, disappointed heart a little.While waiting for the onde-onde to be wrapped, Eadric Rong watched the hustle and bustle around him. Lengyang Market, with all its energy, remained an interesting place.Unexpectedly, a man approached Eadric Rong and said politely, "Young master, may I have a packet of sesame onde-onde? In exchange, I will pay with a painting," said the man who suddenly appeared before him.Eadric Rong frowned, his eyes keenly watching the man's figure.The clothes the man wore looked clean, but were full of regular patches, indicating he was a beggar by profession. On his back, four large sacks hung tightly, ranking high in the Beggar's Society.'A beggar with clean clothes, and carrying four sacks? Interesting!' Eadric Rong thought, feeling that this beggar was not simple.A moment later,"What skill would you trade fo
Summer Full Night - Part II.
The sky had turned dark, shrouded in night shadows that hung heavy over the city.The Temple of the Clouds is a Buddhist shrine, located in the east of Lengyang City.The old building had long been abandoned by the monks. Today, the temple is a resting place for beggars and travelers who don't have enough money to stay at more decent lodgings.The next day, Eadric Rong arrived at the temple with two large wooden bushels full of food that he had bought from the Heavenly Delicacies Restaurant, the most famous restaurant in Lengyang City.The fragrant smell of the food he brought filled the quiet temple air, whetting the appetite of anyone who smelled it.Huang Fu, who had been waiting in front of the temple, stared with a furrowed brow when he saw the amount of food Eadric Rong had brought. "Why so much?" he asked in a reproachful tone.Eadric Rong smiled, he replied with a sincere tone,"This is also for the enjoyment of your traveling companions and friends who live in the Temple of t
Murder.
Eadric Rong was just about to fall asleep when his ears, trained as a high-level martial artist, caught the faint sound of footsteps on the ridge of the Hall of Fortune Koi.His instincts kicked in immediately, confirming that something unusual was happening around the normally quiet pavilion.“Even though my ability to exert true energy is being shut down, all my senses and instincts as a practitioner at the Golden Lotus level remain sharp and alert,” he thought, feeling his heartbeat steady despite the sudden tension.Carefully, Eadric Rong peeked through the window. He slowly opened it, letting in the cool night breeze and the faint, soothing scent of flowers.Under the dim moonlight, he saw a human figure moving with incredible agility, like a swallow flying across the night sky. The figure leapt from building to building with mesmerizing grace, barely making a sound."A hitman?" Eadric Rong hissed softly, his eyes narrowing as he observed more closely. The figure wore a tight, al
Death of the Assassin.
"Who are you? Aren't you dead? How can you be alive again?"The assassin stared with widened eyes, confusion covering his face. He was not a believer in magic or black magic. To him, in this world, true power lay in the ability to master martial arts.There was no room for superstition in his hardened mind, full of combat logic.As the Talisman Master's figure walked slowly toward him, his every step seemed to echo in the silent night.The shadow of his tall body was clearly visible in the pale moonlight, adding to his haunting presence.The assassin quickly took out his dagger. The moonlight reflected off the blade, casting a sharp glow that confirmed his intent to fight."Don't come any closer!" he threatened with an unconcealable tremble in his voice, trying to recover his composure. "I am a fighter of the Golden Peacock Swordsman realm. A single wave of my hand can take your life!"However, although his threat sounded firm, hesitation was evident in his movements. Although he thou
