Chapter 184 A Dream

It seemed that no matter what the origins or reputations of the world's remarkable individuals, the heavens would always reserve a place for them.

Hu Ma was somewhat surprised to see the old farmer again, but he didn't overthink it.

After all, he had only met him briefly once before they went their separate ways. As his own skills grew and his knowledge expanded, he often thought of this strange man who, although not of the orthodox schools, possessed astonishing abilities. However, the other man might not even recognize him.

Moreover, in the moment that his mind wandered, he saw Shao Daozi striding forward, reaching the pool of blood in an instant.

Only five people were closer to the pool of blood than he was.

Anyone who could rank in the top five in front of the blood pool was no simple character. In theory, it could even be understood as the five most murderous people in the world.

Regardless of their backgrounds or experiences, the fact that they could sit here indicated that they must have had a shocking story behind them, and their murderous aura was real. No one dared to underestimate them.

When Shao Daozi arrived in front of them, he paused slightly.

Just as Hu Ma and the others were wondering if the five men's murderous aura was too strong, even causing Shao Daozi to feel apprehensive, they saw that Shao Daozi didn't even look at the five men. His gaze was fixed on the pool of blood, and he sneered:

"You kept calling me over?"

"What arrogance. Since this general is already here, you should come and see me!"

"..."

After saying these words, he suddenly reached out his hand, his five fingers clenched as if to pull something towards him.

"Fuck..."

Watching this scene, Hu Ma and Er Guo Tou, and even Miss Red Wine, couldn't help but be shocked.

They had originally thought that General Ren Tu was on a different level from the others, but he was intimidated by the five people in front of the pool of blood, and needed to stop and treat them seriously, which would be a loss of face.

Now they understood that General Ren Tu had never taken these five people seriously. He only had eyes for the pool of blood. He could feel the pool of blood calling to him, so he came straight here, but he was too lazy to walk any further towards it.

He not only didn't take the five men seriously, but he didn't even take the pool of blood seriously.

He didn't want to go to the pool of blood himself, but instead wanted the pool of blood to come to him!

And, the pool of blood actually sensed his intention.

As he clenched his fist in the void, dozens of feet of blood water suddenly surged in the pool of blood, tumbling and rolling, carrying an indescribable force.

In an instant, it had already collapsed the white jade platform set up by the Wu Chang Li family next to it, and also crushed the exquisite courtyard created by the Yang realm's purple Qi.

Not only was the entire pool of blood approaching Shao Daozi, but even the five figures sitting on the pool of blood, including the evil minion old farmer, were swept into the pool of blood. The huge pool of water approached Shao Daozi as if it had come to life.

What was this about the stronger the murderous aura, the closer one was to the pool of blood?

With just this one move, the difference in strength was immediately apparent.

Hu Ma and the others were shocked, and their hearts were in their throats, their eyes filled with anticipation.

With this momentum, wouldn't Shao Daozi be able to easily seize the authority of the pool of blood and suppress the God-Given King?

Perhaps, he might even be able to make the pool of blood submit and completely grasp this authority in his hands?

"Impossible!"

But at the same time, one person in the distance was suddenly frightened.

The Li family's head sat in the distance, watching Shao Daozi come with cold eyes, wanting to see how capable he was. But he suddenly saw him raise his hand and ignore the Li family's arrangements next to the pool of blood, directly summoning it. Suddenly, cold sweat covered his entire body.

Summoning the pool of blood and taking it as his own was originally what the Wu Chang Li family had dreamed of achieving.

But after twenty years and three generations of effort, they were still far from achieving it. Suddenly, they saw a stranger appear and immediately reach a realm they had never dared to imagine. How could he not be shocked?

In addition to being shocked and suspicious, he simply didn't believe it.

In this world, those with heavy murderous aura had already been found by the Li family and recorded in their books. It was impossible for one to appear out of thin air.

In his shock and anger, he immediately raised his sleeve. He saw that his sleeve was bulging, and a green-headed little ghost quickly emerged, holding a book in his hand and handing it to him.

The Li family's great master raised his hand and opened the book, his eyes cold and quickly scanning the book. He immediately landed on a name and shouted angrily:

"Guo Jiangsheng, born in Sanlidian, Jiaoshi Prefecture, Anzhou, how dare you deceive the pool of blood?"

As this name was shouted out, even Shao Daozi, who was already standing in the pool of blood and waving his hand, couldn't help but tremble.

At this time, he didn't even know who he was, only thinking that he was General Ren Tu Bai Qi.

But the Wu Chang Li family had the ability to recognize people and call out their names.

In an instant, they saw through his true identity and even his fate and karma. Naturally, they realized that this person could not possibly have such a murderous aura. From this, they could easily determine that the monstrous murderous aura on this person was definitely fake.

The Li family wanted to use their true skills to fight and see if there was an opportunity to glimpse the possibility of truly refining the pool of blood. Who knew that the other party was actually just taking advantage of a trick? How could they not be angry?

They were deceiving the darkness, which might allow them to replace the God-Given King, but they would definitely not be able to bear the weight of the pool of blood.

"Deceiving gods and ghosts, the crime deserves to be punished!"

Seeing that they had seen through the truth, anger rose in his heart. Suddenly, he raised his sleeve and wrote a few words quickly with his finger.

At this moment, he only felt the Netherworld shaking violently all around him. Suddenly, countless iron chains extended from the surrounding mist, one after another, all缠绕towards Shao Daozi.

Behind each iron chain, a little ghost could be vaguely seen, trying to pull Shao Daozi's soul out of his body.

Seeing this scene, Er Guo Tou secretly thought that things were not good.

For those in the Jianghu schools, the Li family's abilities had almost reached an unsolvable level.

People in the schools didn't dare to let others know their real names and birthdates casually, otherwise, the other party might cast spells on them. But the Li family's ability was that whether you said it or not, the result was the same.

They could observe the name upon meeting, and cast spells upon observing the name.

No matter if you used a fake name, changed your appearance, or even cast a spell to make yourself forget where you came from, they could see it at a glance.

At this time, Shao Daozi's identity in this world was unknown even to himself, but the Li family shouted it out as soon as they opened their mouths.

"It's your turn."

At the same time, Miss Red Wine's face changed, and she said to Hu Ma: "Shao Daozi has murderous aura but not enough Daoism. He can't withstand the Li family's spells!"

"So, you brought me down here to be a meat shield?"

Hu Ma understood in his heart that with the current momentum, Shao Daozi's murderous aura was on a different level from the others. It was simply easy to seize the God-Given King's authority.

But the murderous aura was real, but the identity was fake. The Li family's great master could severely injure Shao Daozi with a casual spell.

But it was different with him here. He was indeed very good at being a meat shield.

As he took a step, he exerted his strength.

With a loud bang, the world shook violently. The Yin realm was originally an intangible place, but under his feet, a deep pit seemed to appear. Everything around him flew towards him uncontrollably, including the iron chains that were缠绕towards Shao Daozi.

The power of the Ten Incense Sticks lay in this, distorting the four directions with one's own fate, forcing those spells to come to oneself first.

Hu Ma could use this trick in the Yang realm, let alone in the Yin realm.

The iron chains缠绕his arms uncontrollably. The little ghosts behind the iron chains were pulling with all their might, but Hu Ma stood still, smiling and looking forward: "Li Da Xian Sheng, are you in a hurry?"

As long as he was willing, then any spells that the Li family cast in this pool of blood would fall on him first.

With him blocking, Shao Daozi could take the opportunity to take advantage of the situation and subdue this pool of blood.

"Is this the method that your Zhen Sui Hu family came up with to break the law?" At this time, the Li family's great master's face was also cold. He didn't even bother with politeness and shouted sternly: "I respect your Hu family and what you do. I kindly let you in to fight."

"But I didn't expect you to not learn the good things, but instead learn the tricks of the stage magicians to fool people. With this slippery trick, you want to win the authority of the pool of blood? What a fool's dream!"

He was truly angry.

The Li family, to say nothing else, did indeed bring an attitude of sincere exchange to this battle.

Of course, this had nothing to do with character, but rather that they were using this battle to seek an opportunity to ultimately break their own maternal style that had been shackled early on.

But the transmigrator was taking advantage of loopholes, which made him extremely dissatisfied.

Originally, the Li family was forced to be the first to face Hu Ma because the Trick Zhao family had tricked people. He didn't expect that when it came to gambling, a master from the Trick School would come to disrupt things again. At this point, his dissatisfaction with the Trick Zhao family even exceeded the Jiang Tou Chen family that restrained his own family.

Of course, he didn't know that the Zhao family was still disciplined. When it came to fighting, they had transferred Wu He's sister back.

Although Miss Red Wine was a small official of the Trick School, she represented the transmigrators.

"When I talked with the old lady, I only said that we would each use our own means to break the law of the Blood Floating Butcher, but I didn't say that we couldn't use the skills of the Trick School."

Hu Ma only smiled lightly as he faced the furious Li family's great master.

Fighting was like this. Just like the Red Lantern Niangniang Society and the Green Shirt Master Gang back then, when they got on the stage, they could fight fiercely, they could fight for the brilliance of their术法, they could break the other party's术法, and they could take advantage of loopholes.

In short, since it was determined that the God-Given King was the topic of the gamble, then as long as he could break the authority of the pool of blood on the God-Given King, who could care what means he used?

"You are creating sins out of thin air, wanting to seize the authority of the pool of blood. I'm afraid you won't get your wish!"

In the stern shout, the Li family's great master reacted extremely quickly. Seeing that Hu Ma was standing there like a tall mountain, he immediately abandoned the idea of continuing to cast spells and simply took out a few talismans from his hand and sprinkled them on the God-Given King.

The God-Given King was just a projection here. It was possible that even he himself didn't know that he was in the pool of blood.

But now that the Li family's head sprinkled those few talismans on him, his virtual shadow actually grew bigger and bigger. The blood water of the pool of blood, which had already been churning around, poured into his shadow even more violently.

"Hu!"

At this time, in the Yang realm, inside the Meng Hu Pass, the God-Given King suddenly opened his eyes, his expression quite surprised.

Time passed slowly in the Yin realm. At this time, two days and one night had passed in the Yang realm. It was the dusk of the second day. The God-Given King had too much bloody aura and was in a state of severe fatigue for a long time. Therefore, he did not send troops last night and just had a good night's sleep.

He thought that he would need to sleep for several days to recover, but he didn't expect that after one night, he would feel energetic, as if the bloodiness on his body was heavier and his knife was sharper than usual. He narrowed his eyes.

"So, your Li family has been stealing from yourselves all along, stealing the power of the pool of blood's grievances..."

At this time, in the pool of blood, Hu Ma suddenly understood when he saw the Li family's head's actions.

Earlier, he had seen the truth of the Floating Butcher Army. Where were there any soldiers and horses? They were just dead people. At night, they would follow the God-Given King and kill people with his bloody aura.

But the only question was, where did the God-Given King get so much bloody aura, endlessly, to be able to bring up an entire army of dead people?

Now he understood that it was because the Li family was betting on the God-Given King, helping him eat空饷(draw military pay for nonexistent soldiers).

In the end, the God-Given King was only himself. Even if he created sins and killed people, there wasn't much murderous aura. But the Li family helped him create an army of dead people, and all the killing fell on the God-Given King's head.

The heavier the killing, the higher the authority, firmly helping the God-Given King sit at the closest distance to the pool of blood, even leaving everyone else far behind.

Of course, at ordinary times, the Li family even felt that the God-Given King was out of control and deliberately reduced the bloody aura he borrowed from the pool of blood. But now, in order to win this battle, they had to increase the stakes for him again.

Now it was the same. The Li family's head blessed the God-Given King. Perhaps he would kill a lot again in the Yang realm.

And in the Yin realm's pool of blood, Shao Daozi would probably immediately encounter a strong enemy.

"In the world, each sect has its own strange techniques and methods. Which one is not stealing the power of heaven and earth? Is it only our Li family that is doing this?"

Facing Hu Ma's question, the Li family's head had a cold look. At the same time, he held a vermilion pen and quickly wrote on the book that the little ghost was holding up beside him.

Even if he blessed the God-Given King, he was still worried that he couldn't beat the ghost thing that the Hu family had invited over. At this moment, he was saying tough words, but in fact, he was extremely worried.

In the back-and-forth conversation, Shao Daozi had already entered the pool of blood. The rolling bloody aura directly巻き込む towards his body. Even so, he couldn't suppress the rising murderous aura on his body. It could be seen how heavy his murderous aura was.

And facing his murderous aura, the other figures had already been巻き込むand could not be seen. Only the God-Given King and the evil minion holding the broken knife remained, one with a more and more solid figure,滚滚bloody aura added to his body, forming a confrontation with Shao Daozi.

The other evil minion, however, unexpectedly opened his eyes at this time.

"Having another dream?"

He didn't cultivate the schools, so he didn't know why he had dreams all the time and came here to kill people. But over time, he got used to it.

The first scene he saw when he opened his eyes was Shao Daozi, who was covered in bloody aura. He also felt the other party's strong hostility. There was no special expression on his dark face. He just raised his knife.

"Is that old疙瘩(old fellow)?"

Suddenly seeing his reaction, even the Wu Chang Li family's head was shocked. Then, seeing his actions, he was overjoyed.

When the Li family was choosing someone in the pool of blood to support as a grassroots king in the human world, they had initially chosen from the three people in front of this pool of blood.

However, the guy ranked third was a madman who only knew how to kill. He didn't have any brains, so the Li family felt that he was too easy to lose control, so they filled him into the pool of blood.

And the old疙瘩ranked second had even higher murderous aura than the God-Given King at first, but the Li family found his identity in the human world and found that he didn't understand anything. He even seemed a little痴傻(idiotic). He had no learning or ability, so they had to give up.

Even in the pool of blood, it was difficult to command him.

After choosing and choosing, it was still the God-Given King. His background was good, and he knew how to win people's hearts, so he was finally chosen by the Li family. However, he was too arrogant after all, and now even the Li family was thinking of replacing him.

In the end, when it came to murderous aura, without the Li family's intervention, the old疙瘩was the purest and the most able to attract the pool of blood. Now that he saw him preparing to attack the fake person, he felt surprised and delighted.

"Not good..."

At the same time, Hu Ma's eyebrows suddenly jumped, and he saw the evil minion's actions.

From the first time he saw this person, he had never dared to underestimate him. He didn't dare to underestimate him now either. His heart was slightly凛, and he suddenly opened his mouth and shouted: "Hey, old brother."

"Do you still remember the old friend who gave you the knife in Wutong Town?"

"..."

"Eh?"

As Hu Ma spoke, the evil minion holding the broken knife was stunned for a moment. He turned his head to look at Hu Ma with a somewhat incredulous look: "Why did you come into my dream?"

Before Hu Ma could answer, he seemed to understand something: "Could it be that you also died and came to ask me for a favor?"

It was said that when a person died, the debt was gone, but some people were reluctant to let go of this debt even after they died. They would托梦(appear in a dream) to the person who owed them the debt to ask for it back.

And the one who was托梦was to repay the debt. This was the rule.

The evil minion firmly believed in this principle. After thinking about it, a rare smile appeared on his dull old face, and he said: "You are a good person. You gave me half a knife. I remember it!"

"Tell me, what do you want me to do for you?"
