As Brother Dao stepped into the shop, the system prompt arrived as expected!
โDing dong! The host has completed one follow-up mission, and the system rewards are being distributed.โ
โThe rewards are as followsโฆ
โDing dong! The host has completed one follow-up mission, and the system rewards are being distributed.โ
โThe rewards are as followsโฆ
Two consecutive familiar notification sounds filled Li Yidao with joy, evident from the smile that adorned his face.
However, when he looked at the rewards, there was still a slight sense of disappointment on his face. Even though he had anticipated this possibility, for Li Yidao, such occurrences were somewhat unsettling.
A total of four treasure boxes were awardedโฆ
But there was no skill.
Li Yidao had already anticipated this.
He felt that the system would reward the next skill at a certain milestone, possibly after another system upgrade.
As for the current situation, even if he completed numerous tasks, it was highly unlikely that he would receive a skill.
But treasure boxes were still acceptable!
Without hesitation, he opened two Godโs Treasure Boxes.
2000 years of lifespan!
Combined with his previous lifespan, even though he had spent over a hundred years, it was still quite abundant! Nearly 3000 years of lifespan!
What did 3000 years mean?
During his previous peak, Li Yidao probably had close to three thousand years of lifespan, right?
But this was just the beginning!
What followed would certainly not be so simple!
He believed that with a lifespan of a thousand years per treasure box, his ten thousand years of lifespan were just around the corner!
Taking a deep breath, Li Yidao once again opened two Grim Reaperโs treasure boxes.
Grim Reaperโs talisman!
Grim Reaperโs talisman!
Both of them contained the Grim Reaperโs talisman.
Li Yidao was not unhappy at all.
This was exactly what he needed most.
One Grim Reaperโs talisman equaled a potent attack!
If he were to encounter any danger, using the talisman for an attack would be the way to go!
After all, the more lifespan he had, the higher his attack power!
Once the talismans were used up, he could then use his skills to consume life force for attacks.
In this way, Li Yidaoโs combat power would experience exponential growth!
After receiving the rewards, Li Yidao didnโt hesitate any longer.
He turned around and left! The rewards from the four boxes gave him renewed motivation!
Upon returning, he received two more phone calls.
These were also notifications of the deaths of people he followed.
After all, this matter had become quite a sensation.
The Death Listโฆ This somewhat ambiguous data became the subject of discussion!
The relatives of these streamers who were being followed were naturally aware of this.
Soโฆ The number of people calling Li Yidao increased.
However, whether these people felt gratitude or resentment was not something Li Yidao could control or be familiar with at the moment.
In the following days, for Li Yidao, this matter seemed to have entered an infinite loop.
He moved between hospitals, funeral parlors, and the homes of the deceased, continuing his nightly live streams and following rituals.
This routine persisted for a full three days.
During this time, Li Yidao managed to follow a total of a hundred people.
A hundred people meant that Li Yidao had successfully completed more than 20 funerals.
Although the ratio of completion might appear low, it was, in fact, quite commendable.
The hundred following collectively provided him with more than 3,000 years of lifespan.
Among the twenty-plus individuals whose funerals he conducted, over ten received lifespan packages from the Godโs Treasure Box.
It was more than 20,000!
Additionally, he accumulated over 100 Grim Reaperโs talismans.
However, what disappointed Li Yidao was the discovery that ten of the remaining boxes were empty.
Most of those empty boxes were among those opened later.
Some Godโs Treasure Boxes contained amulets, cleansing talismans, and various symbols.
Regarding the Grim Reaperโs Surprise Box, it produced some curse talismans, but their attack power was quite low, practically useless against Li Yidaoโs current strength.
It seemed more like a playful assortment of effects, such as inducing a day of diarrhea or causing a certain part of the userโs body to ache for a day.
The only thing that truly disappointed Li Yidao was the absence of a single defensive talisman.
He realized that the current stage of the systemโs gift boxes primarily contained talismans, with the occasional inclusion of some exceptional items.
Despite completing numerous tasks, Li Yidao wondered why the system hadnโt been upgraded yet.
No skills were granted, and even the later chests were disappointingly empty.
This realization led to Li Yidaoโs decision to no longer follow others.
Following would only grant him a few additional decades of lifespan, which, to Li Yidao, now boasting over 20,000 years of lifespan, seemed insignificant and devoid of meaning.
With a vast family and business empire, a bit of extra lifespan didnโt matter much. At this moment, Li Yidao was completely full of confidence.
If he were to encounter a crisis like the one a few days ago, he was confident that he could easily eliminate the opponent.
Without much ado, he could simply throw a Grim Reaperโs talisman, and would the opponent withstand an attack that consumed over 20,000 years of lifespan?
The answer was a definite no!
According to Li Yidaoโs encounters with enemies so far, it seemed that there wasnโt one who could endure such an assault.
However, it was too late to say anything.
Just a few days ago, Li Yidao didnโt possess this level of combat strength.
In other words, if it werenโt for the battle a few days ago, he probably wouldnโt have this level of combat strength now!
In any case, people were undoubtedly gradually growing.
Growth inevitably occurred amid adversity, and it was only when facing a real crisis that one would think of making an effortโฆ
The evening glow painted the entire Jiang City in a fiery red haze.
Li Yidao pushed open the small courtyard of the villa.
Seeing the old man sitting weakly in the recliner, his expression relaxed a lot. Today, three days later, the old man woke up, much earlier than the initially estimated time.
According to the old manโs earlier prediction, it would take at least a week, and possibly even a month.
Not only that, Li Yidao noticed Sister Zhou coming out of the room.
However, in the position of her tattoo, there was a special bracelet-like item.
Li Yidao could sense a unique aura from it. Perhaps noticing Li Yidaoโs gaze, the old man took a sip of tea and whispered, โAn item from many years ago. If it werenโt for this chance discovery, I might have forgotten about it. Itโs not very useful, but itโs the most useful for her right now.โ
โThis bracelet can seal the black cat tattoo on her arm for at least a month. During this month, we donโt have to worry about it moving. We have some extra time until I recover, and then we can set off.โ
Li Yidao nodded lightly in response to the old manโs words.
He didnโt say much.
The old man was still reliable.
Li Yidao sat down on a chair next to the old man, poured himself a glass of water, and drank it down.
โHave the people around been dealt with by Unit 36?โ
Li Yidao had been paying attention to the situation here every day for the past few days.
The shady characters around the old manโs villa before were now nowhere to be seen.
So, Li Yidao had to ask.
However, the old man shook his head.
โThey wonโt fear Unit 36. Such a good opportunity, logically, they wouldnโt let me go. After all, everyone needs opportunity.โ
โPreviously, because of Xintingโs intervention, they were badly hit. Even if they wonโt really do anything to me, theyโre undoubtedly dangerousโฆ Thatโs why I didnโt let them leave this yard. It would take them some time to break in, enough time for me to wake up.โ
โButโฆ the other side hasnโt made a move. There must be some reasons for this.
As the old man spoke, his expression became somewhat solemn.
Clearly, he felt that some of the reasons behind this were formidable.
Hearing the old man say this, Li Yidao was also momentarily stunned.
The retreat wasnโt because of the old man or Unit 36, but due to other reasons?
What could that be?
โHas your strength increased a lot these past few days?โ
The old man asked again as Li Yidao was still in a daze.
Hearing the old manโs question, Li Yidao was even more stunned.
How did the old man know about my strength improvement?
Logically speaking, Li Yidaoโs strength was something only he should be aware of.
Others shouldnโt be able to perceive it, especially considering the unique source of his strength.
โNo need to be surprised; I sensed it a long time ago. The more vigorous your life force, the stronger your strength,โ the old man explained.
โYour life force had been steadily growing before, but after the last battle, it surged like a flickering candle. Now, itโs like a bright moon or even a sun. What else could it be if not an increase in strength?โ
A rare smile appeared at the corner of the old manโs mouthโa happy smile, expressing joy at Li Yidaoโs enhanced strength. It was only now that Li Yidao realized it.
Yes!
The increase in his lifespan undoubtedly represented a strengthening of his life force!
For someone like the old man, it was inevitable to observe these changes.
In this case, knowing about his enhanced strength was justifiable.
However, Li Yidao could only smile wryly and nod.
What else could he say?
โWellโฆ now that your strength has increased so much, thereโs something you should settle. You must have felt the assistance of the bronze mirror; itโs a very special treasure. So, find a way to fully utilize it. Go, make another trip to Xian City, resolve this matter completely, and let the bronze mirror break the seal once and for all!โ
โIt will bring certain benefits for the place we are about to go!โ
