The fairies I flirted with in the game became real?!

News of the Shi Tang Village River God revealing his presence quickly spread throughout Baizhou City.

In the North Land, the counties have always been bitterly cold, and it’s rare for immortals or remarkable people to visit, not even the Demon Suppression Maguses from the Astronomical Bureau would come here.

It seemed to be a forgotten corner.

Fortunately, the North Land rarely saw the emergence of terrifyingly powerful demons, and although there were occasional lesser spirits causing havoc, they were just minor demons and ghosts that vigilance from the mortals could manage.

Occasionally, some villages knew of demons lurking nearby harming people, but they could only increase their vigilance and avoid traveling alone, hoping that over time the demons would leave on their own.

If the demons truly became formidable and made it impossible for the villagers to live, only then people would grit their teeth and ask for the wandering gods beyond the frontier to come and expel the demons.

But calling upon the terrifying wandering gods from beyond the borders was extremely costly, and unless absolutely necessary, no one dared to go beyond the borders.

However, the news that a River God had revealed himself in Shi Tang Village was undoubtedly a ray of sunlight piercing through the darkness for the North Land villagers who had suffered from the plague of demons.

Everyone who heard this news was ecstatic.

Especially since the village chief of Shi Tang Village had just taken the villagers to the newly built River God temple to pray this afternoon, and by dusk, the River God had gone to Shi Tang Village to eradicate demons… This River God, truly granted wishes as soon as they were made!

The news of the Jade Water River God manifesting to dispel demons spread quickly within Baizhou City.

Not only was the event sensational, but there were also many eyewitnesses.

The closest part of Shi Tang Village to the Jade Water River was also three kilometers away, when the River God came ashore, heading straight for Shi Tang Village, he bulldozed countless vegetable fields, rice paddies, and forests along the way, even boldly crossing the official road.

Such a huge number of eyewitnesses, coupled with the legendary nature of the Shi Tang Village demon banishing tale, caused the news of the River God’s demon suppression act to spread outside Baizhou City with unimaginable speed.

The Jade Water River is an important waterway in the North Land, bustling with riverborne trade and commerce.

The deeds of the Jade Water River God revealing himself thus quickly spread upstream and downstream to other cities with each passing ship.

When Li Muyang once again returned to the game, the moment he opened his character panel, he was stunned.

[Incense and Prayer Power: 17399]

When he had logged off yesterday, the Incense and Prayer Power had only been at 13, very scarce.

But now logging back on, the Incense and Prayer Power had skyrocketed to seventeen thousand?

And even this number was slowly increasing.

Such a vast amount of Incense and Prayer Power baffled Li Muyang for quite a while; he almost thought he was seeing things.

“…What did this system do when it was on standby?”

It had only been a day and a night, how could Incense and Prayer Power have increased so much?

Li Muyang felt puzzled.

He opened the Incense and Prayer Power interface and discovered that the increase in Incense and Prayer Power had also granted him a new skill.

[Heavenly Fire: Consumes 50 points of Incense, summons a fire of divine punishment to chastise demons. Heavenly Fire scorches souls, causing 200% extra damage to demonic beings.]

Not only had the amount of Incense and Prayer Power surged, but he had also gained a new skill.

Li Muyang looked in amazement.

He checked his experience bar and found that it had not increased much.

When he had logged off yesterday, it was at LV4 (91%).

Now upon logging back in, it was only at LV4 (95%).

With the game being on standby for a day and a night, the Experience Points had increased very little.

The only change was the explosion in Incense and Prayer Power… What had happened during that time?

Suddenly, Li Muyang heard many noisy, chaotic voices.

With a thought, he seemed to be transported outside to the River God temple in Baizhou City, standing on the shrine with the perspective of the deity statue, looking down at the kneeling, prostrating villagers.

All these mortals appeared extraordinarily devout and respectful, continuously bowing deeply and offering incense, making wishes and praying to him.

The ceaseless murmur of prayers buzzed in his ears, causing him to furrow his brows.

How had so many devotees gathered outside in just a day and a night, showing such deep devotion to him?

Could it be that the body of the Flood Dragon had once again performed miracles in front of the people and achieved great results?

Li Muyang opened the interface for the divine prayer powers and noticed that as the murmuring outside continued, a special entry had appeared on this prayer power interface.

After clicking into it, a myriad of the mortal devotees’ prayer-filled wishes emerged before his eyes.

Wishes like praying for a grandmother to drop dead suddenly, hoping to pass the senior high school exam next year, or wishing for a son this pregnancy, and so on.

These lines of text formed a dense table, making Li Muyang’s eyes ache.

Fortunately, these wish phrases each had their own categories, neatly organized.

Among them, a certain red entry caught Li Muyang’s attention.

[Evil Spirits]

This was the information refined from the red entries.

With a thought from Li Muyang, all the wishes related to the [Evil Spirits] entry immediately lined up neatly before his eyes.

[Praying for the River God to manifest and destroy the water ghost in our estate’s well…]

[Praying for the River God to manifest and exterminate the skin-shifter demon hiding in our town…]

[Praying for the River God to manifest and kill the yellow-skinned monster in the woods outside our village…]

…

These red entry wishes made Li Muyang slightly stunned.

Whenever he focused on any entry, he could vaguely hear the voice of the mortal who wished it and faintly sense their location as well as the location of the mentioned demons.

The closer these wishing mortals and their demons were to the Jade Water River, the clearer his sensing became.

The farther from the Jade Water River, the more obscure his sensing turned out to be.

One of such wishes was about a water ghost in a well at an estate by the Jade Water River, where the well’s water vein connected with the Jade Water River.

When Li Muyang saw this wish text, through the vague sensing from the river, he even precisely sensed the water ghost lurking in the underground river beneath the well and vaguely saw its hideous form…

“So the divine prayer system also has this wonderful use?”

Li Muyang was greatly surprised and burst into laughter.

The appearance of divine prayer powers had unlocked new skills and derived new Divine Skills for the Flood Dragon.

Right now, the Jade Moon Flood Dragon seemed to have merged with the flowing Jade Water River, subtly enabling him to observe the outside world through the river’s water veins.

Li Muyang paid no mind to those trivial wishes made by mortals.

But the wishes related to demons were very important.

Initially, Li Muyang had been bothered by the fact that the small evil spirits within the Jade Water River were almost depleted, slowing down his leveling speed.

Now that he had mortals from various places pointing the way, he suddenly had a rough understanding of the demons on the shore.

Thinking this, the figure of Li Muyang within the river stirred, and he directly propelled his body, swimming toward an estate named Liang Family Estate.

This mansion was thirty li outside Baizhou City, adjacent to the Jade Water River.

Li Muyang took barely a quarter of an hour to reach the outside of Liang Family Estate, where he followed the river’s sensing directly into the underground river.

When the cold and narrow underground river encapsulated the Flood Dragon, the river seemed to grow even more sinister.

A quarter of an hour later, a heart-wrenching wail of a ghost erupted from the well in Liang Family Estate, which the villagers had sealed with huge stones.

And along with it, the deep, thunderous roar of a dragon…
