Chapter 979: Tu Xingsun

“What kind of person?” Wu Tian immediately asked. Wu Tian wouldn’t specifically seek out reincarnated divinities from the Mythical World,

but if he encountered one, he would naturally try to convert him!

In the Mythical World, when they came to the Immortal Emperor Realm, they were completely annihilated by one person.

This person could not be the Immortal Emperor,

because not even the Immortal Emperor could achieve this; the existence of that person is likely beyond the Immortal Emperor. Facing such an existence,

if the gods aren’t gathered, something unexpected might happen!

“Tu Xingsun.”

The voice of the Investiture of the Gods rang out, and Wu Tian was stunned, Tu Xingsun?

In the Mythical World, Tu Xingsun was one of the twelve immortals of Yu Xu, the senior disciple of Julu Sun, whose wife was Deng Chanyu, the daughter of Cheng Tang’s Great General Duke Deng.

Tu Xingsun was short and skilled, wielding an iron staff, mastering the Art of Earth Escape to dominate the gods.

In critical moments, he could unexpectedly escape through the earth, leaving people amazed.

Skilled in the Art of Earth Escape, he could travel a thousand miles a day. He listened to Shen Gongbao’s persuasion and stole Julu Sun’s Immortal Pill and Immortal Binding Rope, using the rope to defeat heroes worldwide. He was a vanguard general for Shang Tang, later retreating to Xiqi.

Ultimately, he died at Beast Cliff by the hand of Zhang Kui (due to his ability to travel fifteen hundred miles a day, he arrived early at Beast Cliff).

He was canonized as the Earth Mansion Star God in the Investiture of the Gods. Duke Deng surrendered to Xiqi because he couldn’t bear his daughter Deng Chanyu also surrendering. Tu Xingsun, once killed by Qi Sha Star Zhang Kui during the first Zhou campaign against King Zhou, was appointed as the Earth Mansion Star God.

Following the hint from the Investiture of the Gods, Wu Tian looked at a short and small figure in the village, who was twelve or thirteen years old, skinny like a seven or eight-year-old child,

but his eyes were very clear, and in his gaze toward Wu Tian and the others, there was admiration but no envy.

It’s likely this little guy believes that one day the villagers will recognize him.

“What is his name?”

Wu Tian immediately pointed at the little guy and asked the village chief.

“Him? Green Kid, not much of a name.” The village chief hurriedly replied, “Did he do something wrong? Please don’t blame him. He’s a pitiful soul.”

“Pitiful soul?”

Wu Tian noticed that as the village chief said this, the other villagers nodded sympathetically.

This piqued Wu Tian’s curiosity. You’re all poor; why sympathize with him? Is he the poorest of the poor?

“A Taoist from the Human Daoist Sect once said, Green Kid, in this lifetime, cannot cultivate, and will likely be too weak to hold a hoe, a useless person, unable even to farm.” The village chief sighed.

Useless?

Wu Tian chuckled internally,

How could this be?

It seems only Wu Tian knows the potential of this Green Kid.

Faced with Wu Tian’s gaze, Green Kid initially lowered his head with embarrassment, but then felt it was cowardly, immediately raised his head, and stared wide-eyed at Wu Tian.

Wu Tian felt this little guy had some character.

“Dad, why are you looking at him like that? You won’t think he’s a spy from the Human Daoist Sect and want to kill him?” The little one laughed and exclaimed,

scaring Green Kid to quickly lower his head.

Wu Tian picked up the little one, “Don’t joke around. I think he has some potential.”

Potential?

Green Kid immediately raised his head; did this adult think I’m not a useless person?

But do I have potential?

What kind of potential?

“His potential?” The little one stuck his head out, examined Green Kid, and said, “I have a feeling he’s very suited for digging.”

Wu Tian nodded, secretly admiring the little one’s keen intuition.

“So, he’s suited for tomb raiding?” The little one suddenly said,

just as he seemed reliable, his “so” left Wu Tian dumbfounded.

Among the villagers, Green Kid blinked his eyes,

Tomb raiding?

He remembered those two words!

Wu Tian smiled helplessly,

but suddenly felt like the little one made some sense after all.

As long as Green Kid returns to his position with Tu Xingsun’s ability, tomb raiding and such would be no trouble for him.

“Name: Green Kid.”

“Cultivation: None!”

“Loyalty: 75!”

“Suitable for inheritance: Tu Xingsun!”

“Life experience: Born, lost his mother; the second year, lost his father; the third year, his grandfather and grandmother died; the fourth year, the man who adopted him died; the fifth year, the woman who adopted him died; the sixth year…”

Upon seeing Green Kid’s information recorded in the Investiture of the Gods, even Wu Tian was taken aback. This Tu Xingsun must have done plenty of sneaky deeds,

otherwise, how could he be so miserable this lifetime?

Wu Tian inquired again with the Investiture of the Gods, asking if Tu Xingsun could return to his position directly like Daji?

If he could directly return, his strength would be almost the same as his previous life.

But the Investiture of the Gods told Wu Tian, no.

When Wu Tian informed the village chief that he wanted to take Green Kid away,

the village chief froze, and other children who played well with Green Kid showed reluctance, walking to Green Kid,

asking if he really wanted to leave?

Did he want to?

“Do you want to go out and see the world?”

Wu Tian also walked to Green Kid, touched his head, and asked. This Green Kid, with three strands of hair,

plus his small stature, with the Investiture of the Gods, Wu Tian knew he was Tu Xingsun in his past life.

Qin Yuhan and the others speculated, thinking this Green Kid was San Mao in his past life.

“I do, I want to go out.” Green Kid said firmly, “I want to settle the score with the Human Daoist Sect. Before, my mother died giving birth to me, but gave me life using Talisman Water. My father died, but my father, too, drank Talisman Water while farming… I want to ask the Human Daoist Sect, if their deaths are related to them?”

Wu Tian hesitated, not expecting such a hidden truth here?

If the Human Daoist Sect really did this,

their crimes are so immense that their destruction is due.

“If they did it, but you can’t defeat them, do you want to learn skills from me?” Wu Tian smiled,

“Yes.” Green Kid said excitedly,

Other children instantly showed envy; in their view, Wu Tian saved the adults casually; to the children, Wu Tian was an Immortal.

Green Kid could follow an Immortal to learn skills,

Oh my,

What a wonderful thing this is?

The village chief hesitated, “But… but those Taoists said Green Kid was useless, with no future in this life. Even their old Taoist came and said the same.”

“If they’re not blind, then they misjudged.”

Wu Tian sneered,

after saying,

he turned and left.

Qin Yuhan and others followed; seeing this, Green Kid waved to the villagers, reluctantly heading off.

…”How could it be this way?”

At the main peak where the sect master of the Human Daoist Sect resided, the sect master’s roar resounded again; he felt his Dao Seed disappearing partially once more,

he was angry,

summoning the True Disciples.

“Investigate, find out what’s going on.” The sect master ordered coldly,

but none of the True Disciples dared to respond. Previously, during the Bear Tribe incident, when one True Disciple couldn’t find out, he was killed, so now the True Disciples lowered their heads, with no one daring to speak.
