Chapter 845 Spooky Smile
"This is strange…"
Damien was dead but Chen Xiaobei could not help but frown.
*Swoop*
Having to take out his dragon claws from Damien\'s chest, the dragon scales were slowly disappearing at the same time as well. In Chen Xiaobei\'s palm lay a hexagram shaped gem. The size of it was as big as the entire finger nail and it was found from Damien\'s crushed heart.
"How is it possible for someone to stay alive with this thing being kept inside their hearts? No! Damien is not a human! He is a Blood Descendant! The kind of Blood Descendant that possesses the ability to control Dark Power! Maybe this hexagram gem has everything to do with his Dark Power! If that\'s the case, I think I\'m in luck! Once I unveil the secret of Dark Power, I will be able to increase my power by harvesting my enemies\' blood essence! That is going to be so awesome!"
Upon remembering that Damien had increased his combat power through taking in others\' blood essence into his body, Chen Xiaobei was ecstatic. The most important thing was one\'s health would increase alongside with the combat power as well. Feeling excited, Chen Xiaobei kept the hexagram gem aside.
At the same time, there was another matter that kept on bugging Chen Xiaobei. Before Damien was killed, he had a spooky smile on his face. If he was not dead, Chen Xiaobei would have assumed that he was plotting something evil again. Undeniably, Damien was one of the most terrifying opponents that Chen Xiaobei had ever faced. Without anyone knowing it, he managed to come up with a plan to destroy the entire Paradise Island. If Chen Xiaobei did not spend a hundred years of his lifespan to activate the Moonlight Cache, Damien would have been enjoying his fruit of victory. Chen Xiaobei felt very uncomfortable whenever he thought about Damien\'s evil plan.
Ding!
[You have eliminated a seventh generation evil man! You have received 70,000 merit points!]
Ding!
[Your current merit points is 2,640,000. You still need another 360,000 merit point to proceed to the next level! (Charm: 264,000. Luck: 264,000)!]
"Eh? So many merit points?"
The system notification had distracted Chen Xiaobei from thinking about Damien.
"No. 70,000 merit points is actually not a lot! Damien made use of his grandpa\'s death to benefit himself! That is just not right! After that, he plotted a grand scheme to kill hundreds and thousands of people! That is inhumane! And he even dragged all the Blood Descendants down with him! That is selfish! He is actually worse than an animal! 70,000 merit points from him are actually just nice!"
Feeling angry, Chen Xiaobei used another dragon claw to slice off Damien\'s remains into fine pieces.
"Damien is really dead since I have just received my merit points! And his body is completely gone! There are no survivors around me as well! I think there shouldn\'t be any threat for me in the future anymore!"
After thinking through it, Chen Xiaobei managed to not think about Damien\'s spooky smile. After all, how could a dead man plot against him? Instead, Chen Xiaobei was more worried about his lifespan. After the dragon scale on the other hand was gone, he took out his cell phone to contact Yanwang immediately.
Chen Xiaobei: Bro! Come out please!
Yanwang: I\'m here! What happened? Talk to me slowly! Don\'t rush!
Chen Xiaobei: I just activated the Moonlight Cache given by Goddess Zixia and hundred years of lifespan was deducted from me! Can you please help me check how long do I get to live in this world?
Yanwang: Alright! Hold on! Let me check for you right now!
Yanwang: I found your name! You have one year left to live in this world!
Chen Xiaobei: F*ck! What the f*ck?! How did this happen?
Yanwang: Originally, you only got to live 70 years in this world. After going through years of training, your physical body became stronger and stronger! So, your lifespan was increased to 102 years! Some time ago, you spent one year on something! And this time you spent 100 years to activate the Moonlight Cache! That is why you are left with one year of lifespan!
Chen Xiaobei: Last time… I remember now! It was the Bone Burning Pill!
Yanwang: Yes. My Life and Death Book is never wrong.
Chen Xiaobei: Shit. That means I will be dead soon? I think I need to prepare someone for me to be resurrected once I\'m dead! I will ask Bro Yu to help me!
Yanwang: N-n-no! Don\'t even think about resurrection! After the Lunar New Year, resurrection is banned on all three realms! Once you are dead, you have to spend years and years of training in the underworld realm until you can become a deity!
Chen Xiaobei: What? It has been banned? How can that be? Is Primordial Lord of Heaven trying to set me up again?
Yanwang: No! This has nothing to do with the Primordial Lord of Heaven! There are rules in these three realms! And none of us are allowed to break them!
Yanwang: However, saints do possess the power to set and alter this kind of laws. The only saint that can alter this rules will be Hong Jun, the Ancestral Saint!
Chen Xiaobei: Shit! I don\'t think Hong Jun would set me up. But, why would he change the law?
Yanwang: There\'s only one explanation to it! The calamity is near!
Chen Xiaobei: Why can\'t one be resurrected when the calamity is near?
Yanwang: During the calamity, many living beings will depart from this world! If resurrection is allowed, the entire three realms will be left in a chaotic state!
Chen Xiaobei: I see now! Is there anything I can do to solve my current problem?
Yanwang: It\'s actually not a difficult problem to be solved. Look for Nanji Xiangweng and ask for a Saturn Peach from him. Or, you can look for Laotzu and ask him to give you a pill that can increase your lifespan! There are a lot of ways to do it! Don\'t worry!
Chen Xiaobei: Nanji Xianweng is a member of Chanism! I don\'t think I will go and ask for his help. Also, Laotzu will not agree to help me that easy as well. Since the calamity is coming, he will definitely not side with anyone!
Yanwang: You are right! But! Don\'t worry. The Saturn Peach Festival is just around the corner! As long as you can get your hand on one Saturn Peach, you wouldn\'t need to worry about your lifespan anymore!
Chen Xiaobei: Alright! I shall wait and see!
"Well, I won\'t just sit there and watch myself die! I have to keep on training my body! Firstly, this will help me in the upcoming martial arts competition! Secondly, it can increase my lifespan!" said Chen Xiaobei in a determined manner.
