Chapter 294: The River God Exterminates Demons
[Flood Dragon’s level has been upgraded]
[LV4→LV5]
[Crossbone has been refined, Flood Dragon has acquired language ability]
Li Muyang was delighted as the upgrade notification appeared in his view.
Another level up.
With the wishes and prayers of those mortal villagers, Li Muyang accurately found the demons lurking on the shore.
He charged forward, devouring three evil creatures in succession, and directly succeeded in leveling up.
By then, the Flood Dragon had grown from a body length of ten meters to twenty meters.@@@@
The body of the Flood Dragon, already more bloated than that of snakes, was gruesomely thick even at ten meters long.
Now that its length had doubled, the Flood Dragon had completely evolved into a massive creature.
Its huge head was comparable to a low thatched cottage in the countryside.
The sharp fangs in its mouth were one meter long.
Ordinary humans could really only fit between the gaps of such a gigantic creature’s teeth.
Li Muyang, feeling the strength of his body, was in high spirits.
"These demons on the shore are stronger than the ones in the water, indeed."
Although Jade Water River was rife with evil creatures, most were stealthy assailants like water monkeys and drenched fish.
In terms of quality, they couldn’t compare to those on land that ravaged and massacred near humans.
Li Muyang squinted his eyes as he scrolled through the red wish entries on his view.
"It looks like I need to spread this belief to even more places."
Although in Baizhou City alone, the number of wishes related to demons was an astounding 39.
But the Flood Dragon, having only refined its crossbone, was still far from regaining the glory of the ancient true dragons.
39 demons were not enough.
Li Muyang needed more demons to hunt.
And when he upgraded to LV5, a quest notification popped up in his view.
[Main Quest Unlocked]
...
Over the course of 24 hours, Li Muyang traveled a long distance within Baizhou City, killing the demons listed in the wish directory one by one.
After killing one demon, he immediately rushed to the next, traveling as he digested.
In 12 hours, he had devoured a total of 13 demons.
Now his Experience Points stood at LV5 (19%).
The demons on the bank indeed provided more Experience Points than those in the water.
If this trend continued, killing all the demons in Baizhou City would be enough to level him up to LV6.
The Jade Water River God’s deeds of relentlessly slaughtering thirteen demons in day and night also spread rapidly, exaggeratingly described by the bystanders.
After all, this was a 20-meter-long Flood Dragon roaming on land, harming not a single mortal but only slaying the rampant demons on the ground.

For this land forgotten by the imperial oversight, it was undoubtedly the only beacon of hope for the mortals.
As more witnesses emerged, praises of the River God’s deeds spread swiftly within Baizhou City.
So much so that by nightfall, despite it being a time of deep night and pervasive danger from demons, many villagers from miles around still knelt outside the River God Temple, devoutly and respectfully waiting in line to enter the temple and pray for blessings and wishes.
When Li Muyang went offline, he saw that the Incense Value in the worship bar had surged to 39,879, and he was extremely satisfied.
"Very good, with this trend, my second and third temples will soon be established,"
Not only had the Incense Value surged, but 17 new red wish entries related to demons had also been added.
As more villagers heard about the River God’s demon-slaying deeds, they rushed to the River God Temple outside Baizhou City to pray and seek the divine manifestation of the River God.
These mortals, who had suffered long under the cruelty of demons, now seized the lifeline like the mad, holding on for dear life.
As long as temples continued to be built up and down the Jade Water River, the mortals living on this land would serve as Li Muyang’s informants, providing him with information on where the demons resided, ensuring he never lacked Experience Points for leveling up.
Even as the required Experience Points for each level-up increased later, he was not worried at all.
The Jade Water River stretched for eight thousand miles, passing through many cities and towns, and was the mother river of the North Land.
The demons rampaging across this vast region would all become fodder necessary for Li Muyang’s leveling up.
Feeling the increasingly favorable situation, Li Muyang closed his eyes in contentment, letting the system forcibly log him off.
"Brother! It’s time to eat!"
The voice of his stepsister timely rang from outside the door, and Li Muyang cheerfully got up to have dinner.
