Xiao Shi nodded instinctively. “You’re Mayor Fang, right? According to our previous agreement, I’ll stay in your town for three days. During these three days, I’ll be in charge of the safety of your town.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Shi himself was surprised. He realized that at some point, he had already fused into this world. There was no sudden and strange feeling.
“Then please.” The old Mayor Fang cupped his hands. He personally brought Xiao Shi into the town.
The entire town was very quiet. Strangely, apart from the mayor, Xiao Shi did not see anyone else in town. All the houses in the town were closed. The rooms were pitch-black. However, Xiao Shi did not find this phenomenon strange at all. Instead, he felt that it was reasonable.
Not long after, he was led by the mayor and arrived in front of two houses.
“Currently, there are only two empty houses in our town. Which one do you want to stay in?” Mayor Fang asked.
“The one on the left.” Xiao Shi blurted out.
Mayor Fang nodded. After settling Xiao Shi in this courtyard, he left. Xiao Shi looked around the courtyard and silently walked to a tree in the courtyard and sat down. His expression was solemn. “After 1 entered this place, it seems that an identity was placed on me. But 1 don’t feel anything strange. I don’t need to adapt to this identity. When the people in this world come into contact with me, I will instinctively bring this identity.”
Xiao Shi felt very strange about this. He had never encountered this situation before. And the strangest thing was when he tried to recall everything related to this identity, he could not remember anything. There was no information about this world in his mind. But when facing the previous Mayor Fang, he could answer it proficiently. There was no unfamiliarity or strange feeling.
This was very strange!
“Could I have been possessed?” Xiao Shi checked his soul vigilantly. There was nothing abnormal about his soul. No soul entered his body. Moreover, he believed that with the strength of his soul, especially the Myriad Treasure Pagoda spirit in his soul, it was impossible for him to be possessed silently. “Or could it be that… my body has already been tampered with? The moment I walked out of the passageway, I was no longer my original body?”
Xiao Shi continued to check his body. There were no abnormalities in his body.
“There’s nothing wrong with my body and soul. However, the strangest thing is that when I come into contact with the people of this world, I will automatically do something that is not my original will. For example, the house that 1 chose to live in just now. Before I could think about it, I had an instinct to make a decision for me. And 1 wouldn’t find such a decision strange.”
Xiao Shi was most worried that a person would suddenly appeared and wanted him to commit suicide. Then, he would feel that it was very reasonable and did it uncontrollably.
He gradually realized that this was a different kind of domination! But he had no way to escape this dominance now. He began to summon the incomplete consciousness in the coffin, wanting to get the incomplete consciousness in the coffin to help.
However, no matter how he called out, the incomplete consciousness in the coffin did not respond.
“What’s going on!?” Xiao Shi’s expression was solemn. He felt that something was wrong. After entering this place, he was actually unable to awaken the incomplete consciousness in the coffin. He hurriedly tried to enter the Myriad Treasure Pagoda. He realized that he could not enter the Myriad Treasure Pagoda either. It was the same for the Heavenly Mystery Palace!
Xiao Shi took out the dream jade again. He could not enter the dream. It was equally ineffective!
“All the ways 1 can communicate with the outside world are useless here.” Xiao Shi took a deep breath. The current situation was worse than he had imagined.
A cold wind suddenly blew in the town. The moment this cold wind appeared, Xiao Shi immediately rushed out of the courtyard. He arrived in front of a house not far from town.
Boom!!
There was a loud bang. A black coffin suddenly exploded from the roof. There was a swish and it stabbed into the ground. With a creaking sound that made one’s teeth ache, the entire coffin lid fell down, revealing a pale corpse with disheveled hair.
The eyes of the corpse suddenly opened. It revealed a pair of grayish-white pupils. The moment he opened his eyes, this corpse had already turned into an afterimage, causing a terrifying sonic boom as it charged towards Xiao Shi.
The moment he saw the coffin fly out, Xiao Shi’s spiritual sense had already spread over. Immediately, he used his spiritual sense to sweep and bombard the corpse that pounced out from all directions. However, when his spiritual sense struck the corpse, it did not cause any damage to the corpse. It was completely ineffective!
“Hmm?” Xiao Shi was shocked. Although his current spiritual sense had only just formed, he was very confident in his own spiritual sense attack. “How can it be ineffective?!”
Xiao Shi raised his hand and grabbed. A long sword appeared in his hand.
Ding!
He held the long sword in front of his chest and blocked the other party’s claw. He felt that the other party’s claw contained an extremely powerful force that sent him flying.
On the way back, Xiao Shi waved the Ancient Soul Sword in his hand and slashed at the corpse. However, there was only a string of sparks. It did not cause any substantial damage to the corpse. It did not even cut through the other party’s surface skin.
“My attacks are ineffective against it?” Xiao Shi’s heart sank. The corpse’s speed was astonishing and it was extremely strong. In a flash, it continued to kill in front of Xiao Shi. Its sharp claws whistled out, causing an explosive sound that tore through the air. It forced Xiao Shi to retreat repeatedly. “Something’s wrong!”
Xiao Shi frowned. The strength of this corpse was almost comparable to the soul awakening stage, but his attacks were ineffective against it, causing him to fall into a passive state.
“Could it be that soul power is ineffective here?” Xiao Shi had a guess. After all, the corpse in front of him did not have any soul power. However, the strength of the corpse was at the Martial Soul Realm. This reminded Xiao Shi of the Martial Soul Realm under Body Tempering. “If that’s the case…”
Xiao Shi’s eyes turned cold. He placed his index finger on his glabella. His body seemed to have ignited into flames. It instantly turned red. His entire body became slender and well-proportioned.
It was… the Red Tiger Form!
Swoosh!
Xiao Shi, who had entered the red tiger form, was astonishingly fast. With a sway of his body, he turned into a blood-colored lightning. Compared to the speed of the corpse, he was even faster. In just a flash, he had already circled from the front of the corpse to its back. His pupils instantly turned silver-white, and the hair on his body also turned silver-white. A silver-white cross mark spread out from his forehead.
He instantly switched to Dongkui Form.
Xiao Shi did not choose to attack with the Ancient Soul Sword. Instead, like the corpse, his hands formed claws and stretched out. His five fingers stabbed into the back of the corpse. Previously, he had been unable to cut through this body with all his strength, but now, it was easily pierced by his five white fingers.
It was pierced through the front.
“Roar!!” The corpse roared. He turned around and attacked Xiao Shi with his claw. However, what hit was a flash of blood at high speed.
Xiao Shi appeared in front of him again. He hugged his head with both hands. “Rise!!” With a low growl, he forcefully pulled the head of this corpse off his neck!
When the corpse lost its head, its entire body immediately froze and stopped moving. Then, Xiao Shi clearly saw an item fell out of the corpse.
“Hmm? This is considered a kill?” Xiao Shi was a little surprised. This time, he was dealing with a corpse. Logically speaking, there shouldn’t be any more items..
