Chapter 307: Chapter 65: The Yin God of Seven Emotions, Tailed Ksitigarbha! (Seeking Monthly Votes)

[Detecting current status...]

[Detection complete.]

With the shift of his vision, the play of light and shadow changed, and Xu Shu once again embarked on his journey, activating his unique "future sight."

A faint mottled scent of flowers invaded his nostrils:

[You’re still battling gods and demons, now Yin God·Sorrow has accepted your expression of love, no longer saddened by regaining a husband.]

[The sequence of first consummating the marriage and then proposing may seem utterly perverse, but upon reflection, it seems quite reasonable— after all, who in the world doesn’t do this? It’s perfectly logical.]

[Under the enormous bliss, her tribulation of sorrow greatly diminished and eventually peeled away from your body completely, as she whispered sweetly from behind you, "Husband, I am willing to serve you forever."]

[Now you are faced with two choices, first, you can...]

["Hmph, those not of our kind must have a different heart!" You choose to grab the Narrow Sleeve Guanyin and give her a hit, killing her on the spot. You collect her Erosion Crystal, green, level six.]

[?]

[Who told you to act on your own? Finish reading the options before you choose!]

[You’re wasting treasures! She had already submitted to you, yet you still want to kill her? You are utterly heartless.]

[Friendly reminder— any Yin God with an emotional suffix, irrespective of its current quality, is extremely rare, possessing evolvable and mergeable properties, not to be missed if encountered, such as Yin God·Desire: Black Silk Lady.]

"Ah?"

Xu Shu, having pulled out the Erosion Crystal from his heart, was taken aback.

Darn it, why didn’t you mention such critical information earlier?!

However, Xu Shu wasn’t the least bit panicked; this was the journey, not reality, so there was still room for regret.

What he guessed, the talk of "merging," could it be that Miss Ai could be amalgamated into the Narrow Sleeve Guanyin, turning a hotpot for three into mahjong for four, to enhance the quality of the Record Princess? Or perhaps directly devour her with something of higher quality?

Up to this point, Xu Shu had already used the Record Princess to avert several crises. She was quite handy to wield.

Moreover, the current quality of the Narrow Sleeve Guanyin was "purple tinged with gold," the peak of the Flawless Level, but not yet at the Peak Late Stage.

Considering this, it seemed perfectly reasonable for her to merge with Hei Shan Goddess and Corpse Dog before, and now to consume a green Little Yin God.

Xu Shu had always harbored the thought of evolving the Narrow Sleeve Guanyin to the Epic level. By doing so, not only could he enhance his fighting prowess but also dismantle her to extract the "Curse Seal" when necessary, reaping multiple benefits.

Now knowing that other Yin Gods also have this function, it would be worth a try in due time.

However, the description "emotional suffix" did give rise to further association in Xu Shu’s mind.

Hei Shan represented "Desire," this green Little Yin God was "Sorrow," and combining this with the mention of seven emotions, as a once key-tapping expert who knew a bit of everything, Xu Shu naturally thought that there must be seven such Yin Gods.

"Seven emotions, are they joy, anger, sorrow, pleasure? Add desire, and what else was there?"

Xu Shu stroked his chin, feeling a pity that he couldn’t utilize the "view details" function of the Tai Chu Scroll in the journey, and the lack of detailed descriptions was frustrating, since he only knew a little about so much.

"Well, let’s first go slaughter that bunch of deep-sea freaks."

Xu Shu was always a broad-minded person who didn’t entangle himself in mental struggles. If something was beyond his comprehension, he simply let it go, focusing on his journey instead:

[You stood there and thought hard for a full five minutes. In your life fraught with perils, wherever you went, monsters abounded. You truly are a natural disaster magnet. It’s good to think things over, but don’t keep the Tai Chu Scroll waiting too long, thank you, Master.]

[You swiftly cleaned up the scene, buoyed by the confidence of having just killed a level six Yin God·Sorrow while alive, and began to descend the stairs.]

[You live on the third floor, the shrimp are dining on the first floor, and you know they are no match for you, but there is a more formidable deep-sea octopus monster lurking behind. You choose:?]

[You decide to capture the leader first. You clearly remember where that octopus monster emerged from— the first floor’s kitchen.]

[Upon reaching the second floor, you directly flipped out of the building, sliding down the chimney to land quietly by the kitchen window, lying low like a defeated eel, peering inside.]

[You see the octopus monster—]

The light and shadow before Xu Shu shifted, revealing a bizarre perspective in the dynamic scene.

Before him, Octopus Brother, whom he had fiercely battled on several occasions, was kneeling devoutly in prayer.

It had turned a stove into a makeshift altar, venerating an odd paper-mache figurine of a deity.

This deity was all black, with six arms, two of which held a Zen Staff and a Treasure Bead, and the other four twisted outwards.

The paper deity was rudimentary in every aspect except the face, which was exquisitely crafted. Unlike the usual compassionate expression associated with deities, this one’s expression was one of wrathful indignation, eyes seemingly filled with loathing and abhorrence for this world, brimming with resentment, chilling to the spine at a mere glance.

Additionally, where pork should have been hanging from the ceiling, now dangled bodies of victims from the inn.

Xu Shu’s eyes swept across and noted precisely five bodies, their skins removed, exposing clear and distinct lines of blood vessels and meridians, resembling models from a laboratory.

They also looked not unlike... sausages.

The sight would make a Soul Eater Ghost drool.

"Looks like, a paper-mache deity? This thing gives off an evil vibe~"
