After being adopted by a tiger demon, I swept through the strange and chaotic world

#368 - The first god-level soul; happy to be a “father”?

Seeing this, Niu Tou was filled with fear and tried hard to control his body. He picked up the steel fork and threw it straight at Li Xiao. Then his soul left his body and he turned and ran away without any hesitation.

However, even so, Niutou's fork is not so easy to resist. If Li Xiao were to judge Niutou's physique based on his own physique, it would probably be around 600,000, or maybe less, but not much different.

Therefore, Li Xiao didn't dare to take the fork head-on. The moment he saw the steel fork slip out of his hand, he used a combo of Transforming into Heaven and Earth and Five Elements Escape.

Li Xiao knew that with the opponent's mental power, this attack would most likely have the effect of searching for the enemy. Only by assimilating with the heaven and earth and making it lose its target could he truly avoid it.

The steel fork flew straight into the distance, and Li Xiao, after sensing the direction of the escape, chased after it.

However, before they had gone far, they heard a scream from the front.

"Niutou! You are so brave! Who allowed you to cross the Naihe Bridge with your soul?"

The moment Li Xiao heard this voice, he fell into a momentary trance.

It seemed that he had heard this voice not long ago, or not long ago, a long time ago...

Li Xiao gritted his teeth and walked forward. The bull-headed man was kneeling in the middle of the bridge with flames burning on his body. A woman was standing not far away.

The woman was wearing a cap and a white veil on her face, so her face could not be seen clearly. She was barefoot in the air and in her left hand she held a long pipe, from which smoke rings slowly floated.

Li Xiao lowered his head thoughtfully, deeply shocked.

[Where is the Meng Po guarding the hometown platform? Now you want me to fight Meng Po? Damn, you don’t even have salt? ]

Li Xiao didn't think that the person who could appear here at this time and was obviously more powerful than Niutou could be anyone else.

At this moment, the voice that Li Xiao felt extremely familiar with sounded again.

"What are you still standing there for? Isn't there a soul missing from your Ten Thousand Souls Banner?"

Hearing this, Li Xiao was still unable to react, but the Bull Head on the ground raised its head with all its might and roared at Meng Po:

"How dare you, old witch?! I will report this to the Emperor!"

"Noisy!"

The ox-headed soul let out a heart-wrenching wail, but turned into green smoke the moment it touched the banner.

In the small world inside the Hundred Ghosts Banner, a soul slowly condensed.

Li Xiao withdrew his gaze, put away the soul-guiding lamp, and then looked at Meng Po vigilantly.

"Heh...you guy, don't you even recognize me?"

As she spoke, Meng Po took off the hat on her head, revealing a pretty face. The only flaw was that there were some fine lines at the corners of her eyes and on her forehead, and her hair had turned white at the roots. She looked like she was in her 50s.

But Li Xiao knew that the other party's actual age was probably more than tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of years old. However, judging from her appearance, she could be described as a middle-aged woman with a charming demeanor...

Bah, bah, bah, Li Xiao was speechless and even began to doubt himself. When did he become interested in old women?

But for some reason, Li Xiao felt that the woman in front of him was somewhat familiar...

"Hey, I'm talking to you, are you deaf?"

"Ah? Oh, um, Senior, are we... acquainted?"

“Senior… Pu… Hahahahaha… Senior, my senior… Li Tianqiong ah Li Tianqiong, no, I have to record it for you.”

Meng Po's face changed, she took out a mirror, pointed it at Li Xiao, and said seriously:

"Say what you just said again."

Li Xiao pulled the corner of his mouth and pouted: "You wish, I'm not stupid."

"Hey, you have a brain now? Come on, tell me, you said the next level and I'll let you pass it straight away, okay?"

Li Xiao heard this and said in a low voice:

"In a sense, we are now in the same boat, and you have to help me."

Meng Po curled her lips, "Who was in the same bed with you two? Don't try to make connections, or else Old Zhang will say that I'm wasting time on young handsome men. Besides, if your little girl hears this, she'll definitely come after me."

"ah?"

Li Xiao felt that his CPU was blown up and he was stunned for a long time.

"You... um you... hiss~ you... you, no, you... you that... you, you you..."

For a moment, Li Xiao just wanted to ask, who am I? Where am I?

"Pfft...Okay, I won't tease you anymore. You don't have to think too much. This is my divine realm. Even the King of Fengdu can't see what happens here. Don't worry. Just don't let your bull head out in the underworld... It's best not to take out the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, otherwise there will be some trouble...

Oh, and also, when you see me later, remember to pretend you’ve never seen me before, so that you don’t get caught…”

After saying all this, Li Xiao only felt ripples around him, but the surrounding scenery did not change much, except that the smell of bitter almonds came again.

Li Xiao then realized belatedly: Meng Po's divine realm was depicted based on the Naihe Bridge!

"Eh? She just said Lao Zhang... Did she mean Zhang Sanfeng? She also called me Li Tianqiong... Could it be that everything she said is true? If it's false, then none of this makes sense... But if it's true... Ugh, it gives me a headache."

Li Xiao now has some belief that he is the Martial God Li Tianqiong from one hundred thousand years ago. If not, the result will be completely opposite: Zhang Sanfeng and Meng Po have joined forces to play a big game of chess, and he is just a chess piece.

If that's the case, then their target should be... Emperor Fengdu!

If that's the case, it can be barely explained.

But if that was the case, even if he was lucky enough to become the King of Fengdu, by that time, his strength would surely have improved by leaps and bounds. How could the other party be sure that he could control himself?

Li Xiao thought a lot, but no matter which direction he chose, there seemed to be something that didn't make sense. At least for him at the moment, facing all this would not change anything.

Even if he planned for the worst, there was nothing he could do now and he could only take things one step at a time.

Li Xiao had a vague feeling that when he became a god, he might be able to solve some of the problems...

Li Xiao opened his eyes again, and a beam of light rose from under his feet.

[Name: Li Xiao]

[Trial content: The fourth of the fifteen trials of the Great Emperor - What a fate (passed)]

[Trial duration: ten minutes]

[Trial Evaluation: Excellent (Top)]

[Trial Rewards: Cursed Demon Puppet; 200,000 Hell Money; 200 Bright Flames]

Li Xiao blinked and fell into deep thought as he looked at the little man floating in the air in front of him who looked like a rag doll.

"Demon puppet... curse... why doesn't this look like a serious thing?"

This little man had all his limbs intact, and although his clothes were full of patches, they were still clean. The only thing that made Li Xiao feel a little weird was that this little man had only one eye, but he was not born with one eye. The other eye had an eye socket but no eyeball.

That's exactly what happened, and it seems quite strange.

Li Xiao didn't understand why, and didn't dare to act rashly, so he simply opened the panel:

[Innate top-grade artifact - Cursed Demon Puppet (unrecognized master): This was originally a doll abandoned by someone in the underworld. After being nourished by Yin Qi for millions of years, it has a spirit of its own, but its intelligence is not yet mature. It is born with the curse of the dead souls and has been in pain since birth. It can be nurtured with the host's essence and blood and incense to alleviate its pain and make it voluntarily recognize its master. It is rumored that if it is nurtured every day, one of them may truly cultivate into an adult...]

Li Xiao frowned tightly. He was not willing to use his blood and essence to nourish such a cursed thing. However, since the panel said so, it should not be harmful. The panel was the least likely to harm him.

Li Xiao tried to squeeze out a drop of blood from his brow and drip it onto the doll, then he used his fingertips to guide a wisp of incense and placed it in front of it.

The incense really went out slowly, and then a golden light appeared on the doll's body, and then Li Xiao's drop of blood sank into the doll's forehead.

Li Xiao looked at it for a long time, but the doll did not make any further movement. Not only that, the familiar golden light did not appear either.

Li Xiao tilted his head and found that he was at the center of Naihe Bridge.

Li Xiao took out a soul-guiding lamp thoughtfully and raised it slowly.

The dark green scenery illuminates a corner of the river.

In the blood-red river, there were countless bronze snakes, iron dogs, and toads...Farther away, Li Xiao saw the ferryman of Wangchuan River. Under the dim light, Li Xiao could vaguely see a smile on his face.

This was not surprising, because Li Xiao clearly saw a woman in red nestling in his arms.

The exposed skin of the woman, such as her hands and feet, was covered with scars, but there was not a single wrinkle on her bright red dress.

As if he had noticed something, the ferryman raised his head, met Li Xiao's gaze, and nodded slightly.

Li Xiao also nodded, without lingering on the other person's gaze for too long, as if he really cherished the present moment. He lowered his head again, resting his chin on the woman's forehead, his lips moving, but no one knew what he was saying.

Li Xiao only felt a sharp pain in his heart and just stared blankly until a childish call from the side pulled him back.

"Uh... Dad, Dad?"

"Hmm...Hmm? What the hell? No...No, who are you calling?"

Li Xiao took a step back and looked at the doll that was gradually approaching him in horror.

"You, Dad, need a hug."

"ah?"

Li Xiao seemed to be lost in thought. He had previously used his blood essence and incense to nourish the baby. According to the introduction on the panel, this could temporarily free it from the torture of the curse... and then the other party regarded him as its father?

Is this reasonable?

Li Xiao looked at the doll floating towards him and subconsciously reached out to take it.

The doll was only the size of his forearm, and it hugged Li Xiao's arm after it was in his hand.

At the same time, the panel prompt appears:

[Spirit +10000]

Li Xiao's panel spirit has now reached 296834, and it is only less than 5,000 away from breaking through the 300,000 mark.

A spiritual breakthrough of 300,000 means truly entering the god-level.

Li Xiao guessed that his physical body should have surpassed that of an ordinary God General, but he didn't know what level a God King was at...

However, considering that the Bull Head's physical body was so much stronger than his own, he was not considered a God King. Li Xiao guessed that he should be far behind.

But it is not ruled out that the bull head's spirit is not strong enough...

"Alas, what a pity, the soul-guiding lamp cannot recognize its master and does not add spirit. Otherwise, I would have been able to break through now..."

"Dad, what did you say?"

"Ah? You..."

Li Xiao's face was full of black lines, and he still couldn't accept the fact that he was going to be a "father".

"Why don't you... stop calling me dad and call me... Master?"

"Ah? Master...what is it? Daddy...don't you want me anymore?"

A human-like mist appeared in the doll's one eye.

Although no tears flowed, Li Xiao guessed that it was because the other party had no tear glands, otherwise he would probably really cry.

"Tsk... OK, OK, OK, you can yell at me whatever you want. But first, tell me what abilities you have? Um... that is, what can you do?"

"What... Dad, I know how to fight. I used to watch other people fight and I learned a lot from them. Look!"

As it spoke, the "doll" let go of Li Xiao's hand, floated in the air, waved its arms and legs, and started performing some stunts.

Li Xiao looked at the opponent's movements in amazement. Although there was no spiritual power accompanying his movements, his punches and kicks were quite realistic.

Li Xiao suddenly took out his magic pupil thoughtfully and compared it with the empty eye sockets of the doll...

"Dad! My eyes! How do you have my eyes!"

The "baby" ran over in surprise, hugged Li Xiao's hand, and stared at the magic pupil in Li Xiao's hand, leaving only one big eye full of desire.

In addition to the desire, there is also a hint of confusion.

Li Xiao was afraid that the other party would misunderstand, so he quickly handed the magic pupil to him and said:

"I looted this from a bad guy after I killed him."

Li Xiao was not lying, this Demon Eye was what he obtained after killing Zhu Chixin.

And this demon pupil is obviously the eye that the cursed demon puppet lost.

Now that the other party has completely recognized him as his master, the recognition information on the panel cannot be false. Li Xiao will certainly not be shy. Anyway, he doesn't really need this magic pupil now.

The "doll" carefully stuffed its eyeball back in. It was a little uncomfortable at first and flew around in pain. Li Xiao carefully caught it and used a trace of spiritual power to help it put its eyeball back in place. Only then did it stop struggling.

“Ouch… Daddy, it still hurts. It feels so strange…”

Li Xiao couldn't bear it, so he gently stroked its head and comforted it:

"It's okay, it will be fine in a while..."

Li Xiao was not sure either, but it shouldn't be that troublesome to put glasses on a doll, and it should be fine once the doll gets used to it.

Li Xiao finally managed to calm the "baby" down after much persuasion. The baby then lay on Li Xiao's forearm and pressed its face against Li Xiao's robe.

Li Xiao's robe was extremely soft, perhaps this would make him feel better.

Li Xiao didn't care too much, but out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the ferryman on the boat looking at the river reluctantly.

The woman in red was now walking into the Forgotten River under the watchful eyes of the ferryman, looking back every few steps...

Li Xiao's eyes were deeply hurt. He didn't dare to look anymore and walked quickly towards the other end of the Naihe Bridge...
