Chapter 161: Seal of Lands (Part 4)
Lu Shu carried 17 spears on his shoulder as he sized up the twelve terracotta soldiers . Truth to be told, he sensed huge waves of energy from his opponents and it seemed like these stone soldiers possessed power similar to Zhao Haiping, the pinnacle of class C .
If it was like that, with 12 of these terracotta soldiers at the peak of class C standing guard here, even Li Yixiao might not be able to get the upper hand if he came here personally .
Previously, when Li Yixiao was up against thirteen class C, highly skilled Indians, he required the help of two class C’s of the heavenly network for him to finish the job . Even so, the two members of the heavenly network sacrificed their lives in the process .
If Li Yixiao was to face these 12, he would have much trouble . Perhaps, he might not even be able to beat them .
It wasn’t that Lu Shu was exceptionally powerful . It was just that his celestial map was too strange . The corpsedog from the first nebula was the embodiment of one of the seven souls of instinct, joy . It could kill souls in a split second .
If it was another remains, Lu Shu would definitely not have such a big advantage . But it was just that Mt Beimang’s remains were filled with souls and ghosts . . .
Thinking about it now, Lu Shu was rather regretful that he didn’t find out about this special ability of the corpsedog earlier . Or else he would have swept all the skeletons with his corpsedog . Then, he would have much more gold chains, watches, and etcetera in his possession . . .
Lu Shu dared not drag for long as he was worried the remains would dissipate after Li Yixiao managed to obtain the relic which was the spear .
It was clear that these terracotta soldiers were protecting something in the main hall . He would regret it if he did not see what was in there .

What exactly were these twelve terracotta soldiers guarding?!
Lu Shu walked towards the main hall and with his corpsedog in his hand, the terracotta soldiers stood motionless just like real terracotta figures, just that they were missing something in their hands .
"From the terracotta soldiers’ distress, +1+1+1…"
It seemed like the spears here were of a higher level than those stolen from the skeletons previously . They didn’t seem normal and Lu Shu tried aiming his celestial energy at one of them, and soft screeches actually emitted from the spear .
Good stuff! But the heavenly network would never allow him to keep one of these items . But now that Li Yixiao and he were strategic business partners, could he make an exception? It would probably be good to have one of these .
Furthermore, no one knew where and when the first black market would pop up . Lu Shu was actually very confident and optimistic towards the emergence of a black market . No matter how strict the heavenly network’s regulation was, China is a big country and there would definitely be some grey areas .
Lu Shu walked over the plaque inscribed ‘strategic castle’ and went into the main hall, only to find out that it was completely empty apart from a table . And on the table were some ink and paper .
Lu Shu was utterly disappointed by this sight . Shouldn’t there be some glowing object or something of that sort? He walked ahead to see if there were any other mysterious secrets within this main hall .
At the moment, the ghost general Li Yixiao was battling suddenly increased the tempo of the battle .
With a fling of his wrist, nine black dragons emerged from the spear, roaring towards Li Yixiao .
Li Yixiao was in huge shock, his opponent actually used a killer move, sending out nine black dragons . He only had a fierce tiger . . .
At the moment when the ghost general thought Li Yixiao would loosen his grip, Li Yixiao grabbed on to the spear with one hand while his other hand gripped his head and braced himself for impact . . .

The ghost general was confused . Is he still refusing to let go?
He then noticed a problem, this fatty was quite resistant to attacks!
In reality, those who went against Li Yixiao all knew that in terms of offense, he was just an average practitioner within class B . After all, who in class B didn’t have one or two special attacks up their arsenal?
But what they were annoyed at was although this fatty couldn’t do a huge amount of damage, he was extremely damage resistant!
Whatever method used, it wouldn’t be very effective on his body . It was as if the power and might of any move would be reduced on attacking him!
The nine dragons attacked Li Yixiao’s body relentlessly, and although Li Yixiao was crying out, he did not have the slightest intention of loosening his grip on the spear . The ghost general was speechless . How greedy was this guy? Is he not willing to give up something good?
Just what exactly are you?!
The ghost general already sensed that someone had gone past the twelve terracotta soldiers and barged into the main hall . He couldn’t care about Li Yixiao’s constant pestering anymore . He immediately released the spear and turned towards the direction of the main hall .
He couldn’t understand it at all . The twelve terracotta soldiers were extremely powerful, how could anyone go past them? And wasn’t the only person who could barge being held back by him?
Li Yixiao was rather confused as he took control of the spear . Why did the other party release his grip?
But shouldn’t the remains disappear now that he had obtained the relic? Why was it not disappearing?
No, this is not the relic!
Li Yixiao’s expression turned pale from shock . The experiences from the heavenly network weren’t too relevant anymore . But it wasn’t surprising, considering that the number of remains they had experienced was too little .
Nie Ting had warned him that the relic would recognize a new owner and enter his body and with that, the remains would dissipate . Now, Li Yixiao realized that he could have made a mistake and that this spear in his hand wasn’t the relic!
Chase! Li Yixiao wanted to know what was it that caused this ghost general to give up on this spear .
As he approached the main hall, he looked at the terracotta soldiers, "Where are your weapons?!"
The terracotta soldiers stood motionless while Lu Shu’s distress point income increased rapidly . . .
It was at this moment when Li Yixiao got there and the ghost general couldn’t care less, flailing his huge arm, "Kill him!"
The eyes of the terracotta soldiers turned red and he felt that these soldiers looked extremely temperamental… He estimated their abilities… and turned to run immediately!
Damn, Nie Ting had told him that the remains activated in conjunction with the increase in magical energy in the world . Although they had yet to reach class A, any monster within the remain would not be much better than them . After all, the elapsed time had been so short .
But the problem was that the opposition had strength in numbers!
The ghost general did not bother about Li Yixiao and darted into the main hall . As he entered the main hall, he saw Lu Shu opening a yellow dragon box on the table, holding up a small seal inside .
The moment Lu Shu made contact with the seal, it disintegrated into a beam of light which entered Lu Shu’s body, rendering him confused at that moment .
The ghost general was absolutely furious at this sight, "How dare you steal my seal of lands!"
Lu Shu was rather confused . What’s wrong, is this seal so important? Weren’t you with fatty Li, why are you so agitated… speaking of which, where’s your spear?!
At this moment, everything within the remains started to disappear into dust . He was suddenly shocked . Did he just obtain… the relic?! 8)

The Court of Souls?
Author's Comment: I was asked about reading my work on other sites. The answer is simple: Currently I am not active in any other networks than royalroadl.com. Only here, I correct mistakes and errors. If you read it anywhere else and have to pay for it, or have to deal with an annoying amount of advertisement, You Are Being Betrayed. You would do good if you make other people in that network aware of it. This is a free project of mine for the purpose of having fun. And if people try to make money with it you shouldn't bother visiting their website. The only one whom I actually allowed to have my work on his website is Armaell who invested the time to compile them into pdf. (http://armaell-library.net/author/andur) ——————————————————————————————— Reading Order of the Multiverse-Books ——————————————————————————————— What do we talk about tonight? ~“How about a story?”~ Fine by me. Which story? Hopefully a good one. ~“There was once a lonely child in a world filled with myths, gods and demons. Only power counted there and the weak were worse than cattle. A world where survival of the fittest ruled.”~ Was it strong then? ~“No, but the child had a power. One that made him stand between light and darkness. Nothing could escape him, so he was shunned by his people.”~ What did he do? Did he fight his fate? Did he hide his power? What was it? ~“Oh, he fought. He fought a lot. And no thing could escape his power. It was something that everyone had to live with.”~ So he became a hero and changed the world? ~“…”~ Tell me. ~“Nooo, that's not how the story goes. This isn't a story of a noble man, doing good amidst a sea of monsters. This is a story of a demon who was... kinder than the rest.”~ A kind demon? How boring. ~“I think it would be better if I tell the story, so you can judge for yourself.”~ So tell the story!

The Last Journey
A slice of life litrpg story... or is it? It's burning slow, though. Moving on: War comes with a great cost. Lives and time wasted for most part. One could either be run with sword, be poisoned, be bowed, and sometimes meet their end with just a tiny speck of wood. With magic, it becomes even more colorful. From lightning, to worse poison, to hovering rocks, to weird bladed leaves, to whipping roots, and to a lot more odd things easily reasoned with magic. A wonderful creation. But once used to something more than wonder, more than tricks to gather laughs, it becomes worse. War becomes worse. For there is not only blood to be spilled. A particular town almost met the same end. Soldiers geared with swrords and bows came with mounts. Horses burning lush grasses as it cracked boulders and the soil alike with every step. The kind that only war ones could ever do. Even strange wheeled creations that oozed danger were towed, loaded with something meant to destroy. But not once had they acted upon what such devices should've done, nor what an an army is supposed to do. Siege never occurred, as much as a command to war. No. Magic existed so a simple little fire is all the worth the town has. No sword drawn, no arrows nocked, nothing. Just some mana spent and through the ash they march. That was how Nudius saw her end. It came not even as a surprise. She didn't have the moment to fully register what occurred before she found herself in an empty dark space. Life lost, time spent. All from a fire that had not even touched her. But she knew very well that it was magic. Something she wished to have and strived for to have. Yet it seemed that none of it would matter now. Nudius was well aware of what the color around meant, of the odd situation, of the unfeeling state of her being. It was death and that was it. She didn't have to worry or dream further. Although there wasn't what she truly wanted in what death to her is, but at least, Nudius was comforted to what she believed death is. Rest. But little did she know there's something more than that empty space. It wasn't only the promise of rest, but was also more than she could ever hope for. Another chance at life. Another chance to dream. ***Tags are there just in case. You never know! Umm... HI-MI-TSU. Story blurb+: This is slow burn, quite slice of life story about a girl learning magic. All the while as she fatten herself up. So yeah, progression fantasy. But there's Litrpg! Numbers! Magic! Spells! And of course! There's something more. But read on ahead, please. Oh yes. Plot! There is, too. Disclaimer: The cover isn't made by me. Just layered it with a text. I got it from a free website, if I correctly recall. I'll see to it. (Haven't worked on it.)
