My Ability Pool is Superior-Chapter 135 - 134: The Extraordinary Power of This World

Chapter 135: Chapter 134: The Extraordinary Power of This World

After the door closed, the visibility in the room became very low.

"Please enjoy."

The dark-skinned girl closed her eyes in fear, kneeling at Lv Bai’s feet, her body trembling continuously.

If you observe closely, you can see tears overflowing from the corners of her eyes.

Oh this...

Lv Bai looked at the village girl, then at the door she had locked.

He was contemplating.

Although he hadn’t gained a profound understanding yet, just from this brief encounter, he could conclude that living in this world must not be easy for humans?

Lv Bai squatted down, gently patting the girl’s head.

Just this touch made the girl tremble violently, like a quail.

The girl’s hair was coarse, severely split, and dry, not feeling pleasant to touch.

However, he didn’t mind, and said softly, "You might have misunderstood something, please open your eyes."

The village girl seemed too terrified to react, only trembling without any other response.

Lv Bai, helpless, repeated his words.

Perhaps sensing a change, the girl cautiously opened her eyes.

During this process, her whole body was tense, afraid of seeing any bloody or eerie scene upon opening her eyes.

"You... don’t eat..."

Lv Bai, too lazy to explain, turned sideways and pointed at the miniature stone house by the wall.

"What is this?"

The village girl clearly looked bewildered.

Seeing this, Lv Bai stopped repeating himself, waiting for her to collect her thoughts.

The room fell silent.

About one or two minutes passed.

The girl timidly stared at Lv Bai, her voice as faint as a mosquito.

"God of Wealth Tower."

Luckily, the room was quiet, allowing Lv Bai to hear her clearly.

He immediately asked, "To worship the God of Wealth?"

The girl, speaking, involuntarily glanced at the God of Wealth Tower, seemingly worried about offending something.

She explained in a respectful tone, "No, the God of Wealth Tower is a place to house Household Immortals."

...

After chatting with the girl for a while, Lv Bai managed to gain a certain understanding of this world.

As he guessed, this world does possess extraordinary power.

However, it’s not a place overrun by demons, leaving the people helpless.

There is an order currently in place.

Great Immortal, Great Immortal Huang, White Immortal, Great Immortal Zhang.

This order can be simply termed as the Four Great Sects.

These immortals are not opposed to humans; perhaps mutual aid is a more fitting description.

Household Immortals, or Family Guardian Immortals, are naturally the lowest tier, not even having a formal status.

As the slightly enlightened Four Great Sects, they can only bless the household’s safety, without the privilege of enshrining a statue, only residing in this miniature human residence.

Household Immortals have low mana, with a high degree of animal traits.

So, they generally do not descend altars, speak, or possess family members to make them incense masters.

The family members only need to offer incense at certain times to worship them.

A higher level would be the Altar Immortals.

They could be simply understood as the grassroots organizations, like neighborhood committees.

Even higher levels exist, but unfortunately, those are beyond what Xiaoli, this village girl, could know.

"In that case, what were you doing earlier?"

Lv Bai noticed the blind spot.

If nothing unexpected happens, the villagers must have mistaken him for a highly skilled Wild Immortal.

So, why the fear?

Aren’t humans getting along well with the Four Great Sects?

The previous actions clearly intended to offer Xiaoli as a sacrifice to him?

Knowing that Lv Bai is human, Xiaoli visibly grew bolder.

She spoke softly, "Recently, many people have gone missing in the village, and passing Incense Masters all say things are not peaceful these days."

She shrank her neck, continuing her tale.

"I heard, I heard that Grandma Wang San disappeared; anyway, lately, you mustn’t go out after dark, especially don’t walk the night road."

Lv Bai nodded in understanding.

If the top of the Four Great Sects is those immortals, the human side’s pinnacle is this Grandma Wang San.

The Four Great Sects’ belief and the folk Incense Gate System were led and established by her.

If she suddenly disappeared, naturally there would be turmoil.

As for the Cyan Ridge Forest he passed by this afternoon, it’s always been unsettling; hardly anyone dares to pass through at night.

Since Grandma Wang San’s disappearance, it has become even more dangerous, often causing incidents even during the day.

That’s also why, upon hearing that Lv Bai passed through the Cypress Forest and seeing his extraordinary demeanor, the villagers immediately assumed he was a Wild Immortal.

"By the way, you said you’ve been on the road all day, must be hungry? Let me get you something to eat."

Xiaoli brushed the dust off her knees, stood up, and went to the wood stove to start a fire.

Lv Bai turned around to examine the God of Wealth Tower by the wall.

From beginning to end, there wasn’t any movement from the God of Wealth Tower.

If he could have a chat with the Household Immortals, perhaps he could learn more.

He didn’t have to wait long; Xiaoli brought a bowl of noodles to Lv Bai.

Plain soup and noodles, hard to expect much deliciousness.

But Lv Bai didn’t mind, picking up the slightly moldy chopsticks and started eating.

Seeing Lv Bai not being repulsed, Xiaoli proudly boasted.

"Hehe, you look like a young master from a wealthy family, surely haven’t tasted our craftsmanship."

Lv Bai swallowed the noodles, gently smiling, "Thank you." 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Probably living in the village, she hasn’t met such a handsome man before.

Xiaoli watched him eat in a daze for a while, then got up and said.

"I’ll go make the bed for you; just bear with it for now."

...

Chirp~ Chirp~ Chirp~

Lv Bai laid on a crude wooden bed with his hands resting behind his head.

Outside, the sound of insects chirping was incessant, occasionally accompanied by distant dog barks, carrying the noisy countryside ambiance.

Perhaps after living a modern life for too long, he actually wasn’t very sleepy.

Contemplating what his next steps should be.

Most of the day had gone by, only six Death Fighters had been eliminated.

Undoubtedly, the scope of this round’s Death Fight duel seems much larger than the previous two.

He needed a more convenient way to locate the Death Fighters.

After lying on the bed in a daze, he sat up.

He got off the bed and went to the window.

Due to being near the mountains, the fog arose early.

The pervasive first fog had already enveloped the whole village, making the wooden houses and broken tiles outside the window appear hazy, cloaking everything in a mysterious atmosphere.

He hadn’t woken up in the middle of the night, driven by restlessness, to practice breathing, but had sensed something amiss.

The insect chirping around the house... had diminished.

No, to be precise, it had grown distant.

Nearby insects had ceased chirping.

On the fog-obscured stone road, at some point, a figure suddenly appeared.

The figure had arms noticeably longer than an ordinary person, seemingly naked, standing on the road, looking around.
