From the Carp that Brings Children to the Celestial Officials

Chapter 123 Huge Unexplained Gains
There were no aftershocks of the battle, nor any desperate counterattack.

This evil spirit, symbolizing greed, simply vanished peacefully.

Just as You Ming saw from [Flaw Detection], this evil spirit had too many flaws. As long as you find the right way, breaking through it would be a piece of cake.

But at the moment it disappeared, one of the ten blood-red pillars that stood tall in the deepest part of the entire [Suppressing Mountain Dharma Realm] suddenly dimmed.

The blood color on it was fading rapidly, revealing the grayish-white stone pillar itself.

Countless gods and cultivators who were engaged in fierce battle instantly realized that one of the most difficult evil spirits to deal with had been defeated.

That symbolizes greed, one of the ten evil spirits. It should be ranked in the top five, but at this moment it is lifeless, as if all its power has dissipated.

"how is this possible?"

Everyone found it incredible that these ten stone pillars represented the ten desires of all living beings, and were also the source of all evil.

It has become a product that is almost like a rule, and unless it is one of the beings in the heavens who controls the rules, it is absolutely impossible to break these desires.

Of course, Youming, who caused such a great disturbance, was completely unaware of all of this.

At this moment, he was immersed in the enormous profits he had made on this trip.

After the evil spirit named "Manyu" died, a glimmer of light entered his body from the darkness.

In an instant, he felt as if a new aperture had been opened in the depths of his soul, and a faint ray of light arose in his sea of ​​consciousness, carrying a clear and transparent power.

The light shone brightly, yet it merged with his [Radiance Return to Origin] divine power. The slightest shimmer of the light could reflect even the most subtle distracting thoughts, as clear as a mirror or water.

His mind, illuminated by the light, became incredibly resolute, filled with a sense of clarity and completeness.

If he were to check his [Willpower] attribute value, he would find that the value has now become 5 points.

This is almost the limit that human willpower can reach; beyond that, it is a truly inhuman level.

While strengthening one's will may not directly improve one's physical strength, it undoubtedly has a significant impact on all aspects of cultivation.

Firstly, it reduces the risk of qi deviation, resulting in a clear and lucid mind, with all magical power operations under complete control. If translated into the level of a sword cultivator, it would be roughly equivalent to "Sword Heart Clarity."

Secondly, the spells cast will be more powerful, and the spells formed will be less likely to dissipate, which in a sense increases the spell power.

There are also various illusions and inner demons that make it even harder for him to invade his consciousness, so he never hesitates when faced with any choice.

Just as You Ming was still immersed in the wonderful feeling of his enhanced will, his mind suddenly trembled, and a series of Autumn Hunt merit points fell on him like a rain of stars.

Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands... tens of thousands... millions...

A total of 1.23 million merit points poured into his body all at once, which even You Ming found incredible, despite his enhanced willpower.

Although this evil spirit has some strange abilities, in terms of energy expenditure, it is far less than what he would have gained from killing a low-level evil spirit.

At that moment, he felt the same kind of joy he experienced when playing a single-player game and secretly modifying his money or other stats to the maximum.

With so many achievements, he's probably more than qualified to compete for a top ten spot.

Just when You Ming thought it was all over, a faint light flickered on the ground not far away.

As You Ming approached, he discovered it was an irregular fragment, neither metal nor crystal. Its color was neither black nor gold, and its patterns resembled flames and ripples. Within it, countless figures flickered, some worshipping, some weeping, and some indulging in madness, all turning and shifting like shadows of desire.

He found it strange, yet instinctively wanted to grab it. Although he didn't know what it was, a strong thought suddenly flashed through his mind: if he could grasp this fragment, he could fulfill all his desires.

Whether it's making great progress in cultivation or achieving immortality, it can be accomplished with ease.

However, You Ming's willpower was at a high level of five at this moment. He simply held his breath and focused his mind to expel this strange thought.

You Ming thought for a moment, then raised a token, opened the [City God's Realm], took out a wooden box, and directly collected the fragment.

This wooden box is specifically used to seal away some precious items, such as spiritual herbs and materials, to isolate them from the outside and prevent the loss of their medicinal properties.

Youming didn't actually know if the wooden box could contain the fragments; he was just trying it out.

Although the fragment looked dangerous, it was easily put into the wooden box.

Feeling it wasn't safe enough, You Ming added several more layers of sealing and left a note instructing the City God not to tamper with the box.

After all, the City God's Realm is different from that kind of portable space. The location of the City God's Realm is actually fixed and has always remained in Changning County. It's just that You Ming obtained the City God's authority and could open a hole from another place to connect to the distant City God's Realm.

Essentially, he was just remotely transmitting what he had acquired to Changning County.

……

After You Ming resolved everything, multicolored clouds surged from beneath his feet, instantly transforming into a rainbow of light that flew far away in the blink of an eye.

Perhaps because he had dealt with the evil spirit of greed, he continued deeper into the area without encountering any other powerful evil spirits.

He wasn't quite sure how far he had flown.

The Dharma Realm of Zhenshan seemed endless. In the past few days, he estimated that he had flown tens of thousands of miles, but he had not yet reached the end of this place.

"boom."

You Ming suddenly raised his head and looked up at the sky.

In the sky, a cloud covering an area of ​​several acres was suddenly blasted apart by a force, and in the critical moment, streaks of light flew in all directions.

It's obvious that this is a cultivation sect.

However, they must have encountered an irresistible attack from evil spirits, which damaged even the sect's treasures.

"Let's hurry up and go."

"This is the core territory of the [Lord of Anger and Desire], and we are simply no match for them."

As a streak of light swept past You Ming, a soft voice reached his ears.

You Ming could vaguely make out that it was a girl wearing a pale yellow dress.

In the blink of an eye, the group of cultivators fled to distant places.

“Anger…”

Upon hearing these two words, You Ming suddenly had a thought. The evil spirit he had killed before seemed to be called "Manyu". Could there be some connection between them?
He wasn't stupid. If the other party could provide him with such a massive amount of merit points in one go, how could it possibly be some ordinary evil spirit?
