I’ll Quit Being a God

If there are hungry wolves in this late night mountain forest...

Some of the villagers shouted angrily.

"Wang Laoliu! Don't scare people, okay? There are so many of us, even if there is a wild beast, do we still dare to follow?"

"That's right! Wang Laoliu, you always tell lies and scare people. How long has it been? Can you stop doing this? Are you annoying me?"

The villagers cursed loudly, trying to embolden themselves through such words.

The little girl in the team subconsciously held the small wooden sign hanging around her neck, feeling the cold touch. She was not afraid because Lord Mountain God's token was still with her.

And she seemed to be able to feel the beast following behind her when she held the mountain god token.

"It's a monkey..."

In the crowd, the little girl suddenly spoke.

She stared blankly at the dark forest behind her, and in a daze, she seemed to see the group of monkeys following them through the heavy trees - she obviously didn't see anything with her eyes, but she had a strong intuition in her heart.

Those who followed them all the way were the monkeys.

And why are these monkeys following her...

The girl looked blankly in the direction of the mountain temple.

In the mountains, it was dark in the direction of the mountain temple. Moreover, they were far away from the mountain temple, and the old temple located deep in the mountains could not be seen from here.

But the girl's sight seemed to penetrate the barrier of the mountains and saw the temple located in the mountain forest and the white wolf clay sculpture on the altar.

Lord Mountain God...

The girl silently clenched the token in her hand and murmured in her heart.

Xiao Ai must offer incense to you every day and worship you for the rest of your life.

Chapter 9 Whirlpool (Part 1)

Among the villagers, the expressions of the adults changed after the little girl murmured in her sleep that she was followed by a monkey.

In this dark and dark forest, even the experienced hunter Wang Laoliu was not sure what was following behind him, but the girl said with certainty that the one following behind was a monkey...

It was still when everyone had just left the mountain temple, and the mountain god seemed to be interested in protecting this little girl.

The village chief paused his crutch silently and decided to go back to talk to the girl's uncle Ai Zizi. He could no longer let Ai Zizi's family bully this girl who had no father or mother.

Thinking of this, the old village chief spoke.

"Okay, let's go."

He glanced at the young men around him and said, "Whether it's a monkey or a tiger, there are so many of us, they won't rush over. Everyone, just stay close and don't be alone."

The village chief spoke, and everyone subconsciously obeyed. They temporarily suppressed their uneasiness and nervousness and continued on their way. Just when walking, everyone got closer, for fear that they would become the one who was alone and then picked up by wild beasts.

As the villagers gradually left the Hanyu Mountains in the darkness, Lu Heng in the mountain temple soon received news from the monkeys.

The group of villagers had gone down the mountain, and no one bullied the little girl.

This news made Lu Heng feel more at ease.

He was really worried that the little girl named Xiao Ai would be ostracized and bullied by the villagers when she returned, so he deliberately said a few words to care for the girl before driving them away.

After all, the reason why this little girl was sacrificed as a virgin was the original wolf demon. Now that Lu Heng has traveled through time, this matter is more or less related to him. If it can be solved perfectly, then it would be best, otherwise his conscience will not be able to bear it.

Now that the matter was resolved perfectly, Lu Heng went underground and entered the state of latent cultivation again.

But now he is different from the original wolf demon. He no longer absorbs the spiritual energy in the earth's veins. The power of thunder that had been absorbed surged through the limbs and bones, so strong that Lu Heng's monster body almost exploded. He digested this power extremely slowly, trying to completely absorb the power of thunder.

But during this digestion process, Lu Heng gradually felt the limit.

Because the surging power of thunder cannot be refined into magic power at all. This power of thunder is completely different from the aura of earth veins. It is as stubborn as an unchanging iron stone. No matter how Lu Heng hammers and refines it, it can never change its nature of thunder and lightning.

Fortunately, Lu Heng gave it a try and found that what the demon power could do, this special power of lightning could also do, and it seemed that it could also be used as magic power.

So Lu Heng, who had no choice, could only continue to digest this thunderous power and store it as a new "demon power".

Gradually, the power in his body was divided into three distinct types. They are the complex demon power that the demon body has cultivated for two hundred years, the incense and vow power accumulated by the mountain people for eighty years, and the power of thunder and evil that surges with evil energy.

Among these three forces, the power of thunder was the smallest, but it gave Lu Heng the strongest and most terrifying feeling, giving him a frightening feeling.

Although the demon body mana that the wolf demon had acquired after two hundred years of cultivation was huge, it actually felt like it was completely outcompeted in front of this ray of thunder.

Lu Heng felt that he might be able to try a new direction of practice.

For example, if you take absorbing thunder from the sky as your main way of practice, you might be able to find a path that is completely different from that of monsters...

Ten days later, Lu Heng emerged from the ground after finally absorbing all the thunder energy in his body.

Now the power of thunder in his body has grown much stronger. Although in terms of quantity, it is still far less than the demonic power of two hundred years, Lu Heng is full of confidence in it.

And in these ten days, he finally repaired his broken body completely, and he could move freely and no longer had to guard this mountain temple.

He looked up to the sky and roared, and the long howl of the wolf spread far in the mountain forest, arousing countless echoes, like a pack of wolves howling.

This interesting echo made Lu Heng laugh.

He was in a very good mood after successfully practicing Qiang for the first time.

He ran directly in the mountain forest, without using the power of the mountain god to shrink into an inch, but ran like an ordinary wild beast.

The two-meter-tall white giant wolf was like a silver lightning, quickly passing through the forest mountain roads and cliffs. All the birds and beasts seen along the way were frightened and fled in all directions, and the quiet forest immediately became lively.

In the end, after Lu Heng disturbed half of Hanyu Mountain, he finally arrived at his destination, the largest river in the mountain.

The river is about three feet wide, passing through Shuisheng Village and Hanyu Mountains, and finally disappears at the other end of Hanyu Mountains. It not only nourishes the villagers of the aquatic village, but is also an important source of drinking water for the wild beasts in the mountains.

When Lu Heng walked to the river, all the beasts that were lying by the river drinking water were so scared that they ran away. Only Lu Heng could be seen on both sides of the huge river.

But he didn't care, and stood confidently by the river, looking down at his reflection in the river. In the reflection of the river, the silver-white giant wolf is majestic and quite heroic, just like a mythical beast in myths and legends. There is no trace of evil spirits at all.

This appearance is quite good, Lu Heng sighed inwardly.

But he didn't come here just to be smug. After standing by the river and looking at it for a while, Lu Heng opened his mouth wide and took a deep breath into the river in front of him.

Then, the mountain god's power was activated, and the river surged instantly. One after another, river fish jumped out of the river and flew involuntarily towards the bloody mouth of the river.

One, two, three...these leaping river fish, no matter their size, instantly disappeared into the white wolf's terrifying mouth, without even the movement of chewing.

After eating a full fifty river fish, Lu Heng was full. After stopping the mountain god's power, the turbulent river finally calmed down.

Under the bright sunshine, Lu Heng was in a good mood after eating and drinking.

As a wolf demon who has practiced for two hundred years, although Lu Heng can go without food for a long time, it will be very troublesome to maintain the demon body if he does not eat.

However, he actually didn't like this kind of eating like swallowing jujubes wholeheartedly.

But there are no restaurants in Hanyu Mountain. Even if he goes down the mountain to Shuisheng Village to find the villagers to offer sacrifices, with his appetite, the sacrifices offered by the villagers may only be enough to fill the gap between his teeth.

Sigh...it's so hard to be a demon. Let's cultivate a human form as soon as possible and go to the human world to have a feast.

Lu Heng sighed inwardly as he turned to leave, but his pace was as slow as an old man walking in the park. It took him a long time to return to the mountain temple.

Start a new practice.

Chapter 10 Whirlpool (Part 2)

By now, Lu Heng's cultivation method was fundamentally different from that of the original wolf demon.

The wolf demon's way of cultivation is to use the power of the mountain god to continuously absorb the aura of the earth's veins and refine it into its own mana, supplemented by the incense and wishes offered by the villagers.

This kind of practice is very slow, and it can easily enter the bottleneck saturation period. Whenever the demon power contained in the demon body reaches the limit, it must stop and wait for the demon body to slowly grow.

The function of the incense and wish power is to accelerate the growth process of this demon body, allowing the wolf demon to enter the next stage of practice faster.

However, Lu Heng didn't like the power of incense, so he always ignored it. He doesn't want to be bound by the Hanyu Mountain, let alone the Laoshizi Mountain God. After he succeeds in his cultivation, he will break free from the shackles of the Hanyu Mountain and go to the outside world.

As for the earth vein spiritual energy, he has not absorbed it for a long time.

Recently, he has been obsessed with the practice of thunder and lightning.

Because he found that there seemed to be no bottleneck period for absorbing thunder and lightning practice.

Every time he absorbs the power of thunder into his body, in the process of slowly absorbing and digesting the power of thunder, the power of thunder will be integrated into his limbs and bones, constantly transforming his demon body, and expanding the capacity of the demon body. limit.

After he has absorbed all the sky thunders, the demon body's capacity has also been increased, and then he can absorb new sky thunders.

Such an almost infinite cycle of practice mode is completely different from the wolf demon's excruciatingly slow practice method.

Since Lu Heng developed such a practice model, he has completely abandoned the traditional practice method of the wolf demon. The demon power in his body has never increased, but the power of thunder has slowly increased.

Maybe one day, the power of thunder in his body will become more and more, completely surpassing the magic power of monsters, and occupying an absolute dominant position.

But at that time, was he still a monster?

What is a monster without demonic power? Thunder monster?

emmmmm...forget it, don't think about it so much, just continue practicing.

Lu Heng, who emerged from the ground, did not go to the river to eat this time. Instead, he looked up at the huge swirling cloud in the sky above his head, his expression twitching.

Unknowingly, the size of this thundercloud has become so scary...

At the beginning, Lu Heng just tried to catch thunder from the sky on a sunny day to see if any thunder would fall. In the end, he really succeeded.

It was obviously a sunny and clear sky, but as he used the power of thunder in his body to connect, a group of small thunderclouds slowly gathered in the sky. Although the thundercloud was small in size, it did knock down the thunder and was successfully absorbed by Lu Heng.

Lu Heng, who had a successful experience, did not care about the weather in his practice from then on. No matter it's windy or rainy or the sky is clear, he directly connects the sky and the earth and causes thunder to strike the mountains.

Just like that, unknowingly, as Lu Heng practiced, the thunderclouds gathering over the mountain temple became thicker and larger. By now, it has turned into a huge swirling thundercloud, forever suspended in the sky directly above the mountain temple.

Even if the sun is shining brightly outside and the sky is cloudless, the sky here in the mountain temple is still flashing with lightning and the atmosphere is terrifying, giving people a terrifying feeling that thunder may strike at any time.

And because of the appearance of this thundercloud, the wild beasts in the mountains no longer dare to approach the mountain temple.

In the past, although the wild beasts in the mountains were afraid of the white wolf, they would occasionally pass by the mountain temple. But now, unless Lu Heng summons them, the wild beasts in the mountains will stay far away from the scope of the vortex clouds and are not even willing to get close.

With the mountain temple as the center, the deep mountains with a radius of five miles were so quiet that there was not even a bird or an insect. It was silent day and night, except for the occasional low sound of thunder in the turbulent clouds in the sky.

As the culprit who caused all this, Lu Heng didn't feel uneasy at all.

Anyway, now he is not afraid of lightning strikes. No matter how big the swirling clouds in the sky become, they can't scare him. Looking up at the swirling thunder and lightning clouds in the sky, Lu Heng took a deep breath and connected with the thunder again.

Then--

Boom! ! !

The deafening thunder exploded and spread far across the Hanyu Mountains.

The terrifying scene of huge thunder and lightning piercing the sky and the earth and hitting the mountains can be clearly seen even in the aquatic village far outside the Hanyu Mountains.

In the fields outside Shuisheng Village, the working villagers heard the terrifying thunderous explosion, and they all subconsciously raised their heads and looked in the direction of the mountain temple.

There, there was a huge and terrifying thunder and lightning that just cut through the sky and the earth.

It was clear that the sun was blazing in the sky above the villagers' heads, and not even a cloud could be seen. But in the deep mountains of Hanyu Mountain, there is a huge swirling cloud that is constantly rotating. Lightning flashes in the clouds, and now there is thunder striking down from the sky.

Wang Laoliu wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Is the mountain god angry again... His old man seems to have been angry a lot in the past six months."

Ai Laizi, who was not far away, glared at him and said, "Wang Laoliu, you are talking nonsense again! The village chief has already said that it is not the mountain god who is angry at all. Don't panic! But you, like a crow, talk nonsense every day. If Let the mountain god hear it, and you will be rewarded."

Wang Laoliu, who was standing barefoot in the field, laughed and was not afraid at all, "Even if the mountain god wanted to punish me, the first one to punish would definitely not be me, but you Ai Laizi. When we entered the mountain half a year ago, the mountain god was... I like your little niece very much. And no one in this village knows what kind of person you are, Ai Zizi, hahahaha..."

Wang Laoliu's laughter made Ai Zizi feel embarrassed.

He glared angrily at this guy who was talking nonsense and cursed, "What's wrong with me? Who doesn't know in this aquatic village that it was I, Ai Laizi, who kindly took her in so that she didn't starve to death? I... Huh!" My body is upright and I am not afraid of my shadow being crooked!"

Ai Zizi shouted with a stern look, making Wang Laoliu laugh even more wildly.

"Hahaha...Ai Laizi, you are so shameless, you can even say such shameless words. Are you adopting out of kindness? Are you coveting the family property left by the orphans and widowed mothers! Also! "Now that your little niece is here, would you like to have a good chat with her about where her family's property has gone?" Wang Laoliu smiled and winked behind Ai Laizi.

Hearing this, Ai Zizi was startled, and quickly turned around, and sure enough he saw his niece Xiao Ai appearing on the field ridge from a distance. Seeing the appearance of his niece, Ai Zizi's expression suddenly changed and he became a little panicked.

Staring at Wang Laoliu fiercely, Ai Laizi cursed in a low voice, "Shut up, please, if you keep talking nonsense, I won't be able to spare you!"

After scolding Wang Laoliu, Ai Zizi quickly rubbed his face and tried his best to put on a soft expression on his face. When the girl who came with the kettle and bowl approached, he smiled and said, "Xiao Ai, here we are. .”

"Well," the girl nodded in response, placed the kettle and rice bowl on the ridge of the field, and said, "Dad, aunt asked me to deliver food to you. Also, aunt said that my brother is feeling a little unwell, so I want you to Go back and take a look early."

"Okay, okay, thank you for your hard work, Xiao Ai," Ai Zizi said with a smile, "Go back quickly, the sun is so strong outside, don't get sunburned."

"Well, then I'm going back," the girl said hello to Ai Zizi and Wang Laoliu in the field, "Daddy, Uncle Wang, I'm leaving."

"Okay, okay, let's go back."

"Yes, Xiao Ai, go back quickly, your dad is afraid of you, hahahaha..."
