From the Carp that Brings Children to the Celestial Officials

Chapter 183 It's all because of a lack of money

The Golden Boy God's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. Although he was still in the Heavenly Realm, he was communicating with You Ming across endless space and time.

But he could still see the scene there.

The calm, oppressive spatial power and the vast waters behind that plane left him completely numb.

"Where...where did you get this thing?"

He almost swore. Although everyone at the higher levels had a small world, it was still very difficult for Jin Tong, whose strength was only so-so and who relied on the Empress's reputation to bully others, to obtain one.

"Um... That day I performed the ritual to save Qinglian Jun, and she gave me this item as a token of her gratitude. At the time, considering my relatively low strength and the preciousness of this item, I kept it hidden."

There's a reason why You Ming chose to show the Mirror Lake to the Golden Boy God.

Now that the entire Bixia lineage has completely accepted him, and given the God-Lord's personality, he is unlikely to covet his Mirror Lake. Moreover, if he wants to use the Mirror Lake to create a blessed land, he will inevitably be able to keep it from the Golden Boy God-Lord.

Rather than getting caught later, it's better to just show it now.

Furthermore, with his current strength and background, he is almost capable of protecting Mirror Lake in the mortal world. Even if others find out that he possesses a small world, those who are greedy will have to think twice about his abilities.

"I really... I really don't know what to say to you."

The Golden Boy God was filled with envy. This kid was too lucky. Both the Azure Divine Wood and the Mirror Lake Small World were extremely rare items, and the little carp had managed to collect them both.

However, if it is said that Lord Qinglian possesses a small world, Lord Jintong would believe it.

Although this person is at the same level as me and has a less profound background, the other party has been a god for a long time and is skilled in the Way of Illusion. It is enough for them to cultivate a small world in such a long time.

"Alright then, I'll send you a method for constructing a blessed land later, you can play around with it yourself."

The Golden Boy God felt a pang of emotion. Unbeknownst to him, the frail little carp of yesteryear had grown to this size.

Time really flies, it's quite poignant.

You Ming was overjoyed and was about to express his gratitude, but the Golden Boy God had already vanished without a trace.

……

Building a paradise on earth is neither that difficult nor that simple.

Although the Golden Boy God Lord said that with the Azure Extreme Divine Tree and the Mirror Lake Small World, one could easily construct a blessed land, in reality, the various materials, magical treasures, and formations required were still so numerous that they made one's scalp tingle.

For example, it is necessary to cast a celestial compass to record the trajectories of the stars and introduce starlight into the cave to simulate the real starry sky.

There are also Yin-Yang Locking Pillars, which are used to suppress the boundaries of the cave and prevent evil spirits from invading.

It is also necessary to inscribe the earth vein array and adjust the direction of the earth's energy so that the blessed land has all three elements and all four symbols.

Preparing these things alone required a tremendous amount of divine power and time. You Ming was initially overjoyed, thinking that he would soon have his own blessed land.

Upon seeing the dense list of materials and the things that needed to be prepared, he instantly lost his composure.

Although Yuanling Mountain has accumulated a wealth of resources over the years, he vaguely felt that it was still lacking, especially in terms of many magical treasures. These needed to be specially crafted by people, since building a blessed land was a rare thing, and these treasures were almost non-existent on the market.

You Ming sighed. The task ahead is indeed arduous and the road ahead is long.

He urgently needs more incense offerings, and the current twenty-three villages under his jurisdiction are far from meeting his needs.

If I could control the population of the entire Changning County and bestow children upon them for protection, the number of worshippers would immediately increase five or six times, which would probably be enough to feed this merciless gold-devouring beast, the Blessed Land.

After all this, it all comes down to the issue of continuing the family line.

You Ming sighed. Sure enough, the higher the cultivation level, the more extravagant the resources required. He thought he had finally managed to save some money, but it still wasn't enough.

"Wu Mo." You Ming pressed his brow and called out to the outside.

A cloud of mist filled the air, and Wu Mo's figure slowly emerged.

You Ming pointed, and a page of document flew up and landed in front of Wu Mo. It contained a list of hundreds of materials.

"You take your people and purchase the items according to the list."

"...It's best to mine and buy separately, or mix it in with other mining missions in the mountains, to avoid being noticed by those with ulterior motives."

You Ming added a word of advice, knowing that Wu Mo, with his quick wit, would surely understand his intentions.

Wu Mo nodded, and after confirming that there was nothing else, he disappeared from the spot.

You Ming squatted alone in the Yin World Temple, unable to help but worry about the incense offerings for the divine power.

Money, all of this is money.

He now wants to kill that woman from Changning County and monopolize all the incense offerings for the lineage that grants children.

"Looks like I need to speed things up."

You Ming stroked his chin, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

……

"what happened?"

"Has there been no reply from above? You Ming has arbitrarily killed two gods and even threatened us in front of our temple. He is extremely arrogant."

Lady Yuan of Zhaoyun was furious. She had already submitted a petition to the City God, but several days had passed without any reply, which only made her resentment grow stronger.

But no one responded to her.

Her temple is still under construction, and she doesn't even have anyone to serve her.

Granny Green Bell and Fairy Cloud Neck had their divine bodies severed and were still recovering, leaving her as a lone commander.

"No, I can't take this breath."

"I'm going to find my senior brother."

The more I think about it, the angrier I get. Although that kid is a Heavenly Official, he is only an eighth-rank official. Does he think he can bully us Earthly Officials just because of that?

She felt that all the gods in Tai'an Prefecture were cowards, and since they wouldn't take action, she would force them to.

However, just as she was about to go out, she suddenly touched her head and found that it was completely bald, with not a single hair growing on it.

This filled her with intense hatred, but all she could do was find a headscarf and wrap it around her head.

She rode a cloud of darkness beneath her, about to leave the temple, but just as she reached the entrance, several tall, processional deities carrying lanterns gathered around and blocked her way.

"Where has Lady Siyuan gone?"

The leading deity tucked the spirit lamp into his waistband and stepped forward with a chuckle, showing no respect whatsoever.

Although this group of wandering gods looked very similar, the leader appeared exceptionally fierce. If You Ming were here, he would naturally recognize that this was Zhu Xin.

"The City God has issued an order that a meeting to promote the gods to higher levels will be held in the coming days, and no deity may leave the city without a valid reason."

Zhu Xin smiled and cupped his hands in greeting before speaking.
