From the Carp that Brings Children to the Celestial Officials

Chapter 227 Find someone to test your skills
You Ming seemed to have grasped something.

Ripples spread across his pupils as he looked up at the sky and earth.

The world that had once seemed so real to him now appeared increasingly abstract.

As all the colors faded, only lines remained; as each line faded further, it became dots.

As countless points disappear, only the most crucial nodes remain, forming a minimalist world.

At that moment, he looked down at the river below him once more.

In his eyes, the entire river was reduced to only three nodes.

With just a slight flick of one of the nodes, he could instantly change the course of the river, causing the entire river to collapse. The river, which had been restrained, would then unleash itself like a wicked dragon freed from its shackles, frantically devouring everything around it.

That was what he was thinking, so he gently extended his hand.

"Wait, what is he going to do!"

The River God is the master of rivers and is most sensitive to changes in the flow of water.

Although You Ming only gently extended his palm, he felt a sense of dread, as if disaster was about to strike.

It seemed that the entire river would collapse completely the moment his palm fell.

The City God frowned as well. He also mobilized the City God's Dharma Realm, knowing that if You Ming tried to destroy the river, he would definitely come to stop him.

Now that the waterways between the two areas have finally been connected, if the river were to collapse, both places would likely be left in ruins.

Fortunately, You Ming's high level of willpower (8 points) allowed him to maintain his rationality even when he was in a state of intense thinking.

He quickly withdrew his hand.

This relieved the River God and the City God.

But at this moment, in You Ming's consciousness, tiny finger marks seemed to appear, these finger marks turning, containing endless mysteries.

"Om."

As You Ming's thoughts raced, he stretched out a finger toward the void in front of him, and in an instant, a fingerprint appeared on his fingertip.

He gently pressed his hand on the void.

To outsiders, he simply extended his finger, but in reality, what You Ming saw at that moment was the node of this space.

"boom."

His finger pressed down lightly, and the empty space seemed to become substantial, like a jelly or a piece of stretchy paper. As You Ming applied gentle force, the entire space actually dented.

As the space caved in, this area seemed to be affected as well.

Even though the City God and the River God were thousands of feet apart, they felt an immense sense of oppression and discomfort, as if the people living within this space were being distorted as the space itself was being stretched.

"What the hell is he doing?!"

The River God was startled. He was truly terrified of this carp. "You've attained enlightenment, fine, but why do you seem to have grasped something extraordinary? My old bones can't withstand your antics."

His voice seemed distorted, sounding somewhat high-pitched, but he couldn't care less at the moment. Water vapor rose from beneath his feet, and he vanished in an instant.

The City God was helpless and quickly retreated a little further away.

You Ming poked at the space, but he quickly withdrew his finger, and the space returned to its original state.

Although he had glimpsed the nodes of space, he dared not act recklessly due to his limited strength. Even if he punctured the space, he would not be able to escape the resulting spatial turbulence.

Any power involving space is beyond the grasp of a cultivator at the middle three realms like him.

However, even though he didn't dare to break through the space, he felt as if he had discovered an interesting toy and decided to try it on other things.

Who to look for?

You Ming raised his head and looked deeper into Yinshan. Perfect timing. The mission was to annihilate three alien gods. Now that the White Bone Mother and the Tiger God were dead, only the Egg-Swallowing Bird Father in the Upside-Down Temple remained.

He was currently in a state of heightened comprehension, and the ability he had grasped was not yet fully formed, so he took the opportunity to practice with that alien god.

"Om."

You Ming stopped driving his Moonscale Chariot and instead, multicolored clouds appeared beneath his feet, instantly transforming into multicolored light as he headed deeper into Yinshan.

In the Yin Mountains, a black wind blows like a banner, and the temple hangs upside down on a precipice.

The temple, shaped like an inverted bell, hangs upside down on the mountaintop. It is as black as ink, and a strange shadow, resembling both a bird and a person, appears in the dark clouds above the dome. It is enormous and blocks out the sun.

At the foot of this mountain, there is a large tribe of several thousand people.

Compared to the two other gods mentioned earlier, the [Egg-Eating Bird Father] was undoubtedly more powerful, and therefore the number of tribes that supported it was also greater.

Legend has it that this god can capture spirits and devour souls, causing all things to turn upside down and the world to fall into chaos.

As soon as You Ming approached the Upside-Down Temple, the enormous dark cloud floating in the void immediately came to life, transforming into an incredibly huge monstrous bird that was about to devour You Ming.

"Break!"

Ripples appeared in Youming's pupils, and he instantly glimpsed several nodes connecting the strange bird's body.

He extended his finger, tapped one of the nodes slightly, and then moved it away as if shifting a chess piece.

"Boom."

The seemingly enormous strange bird was now collapsing like an avalanche, and a strange cry rang out from its mouth, throwing everyone into a state of confusion.

Unfortunately, You Ming's willpower was at 8 points at the moment, so this mental influence had almost no effect on him.

But the collapsed, strange bird suddenly dispersed, and then roamed and cried out in the ever-changing void around it.

He felt as if he were being hung upside down, with the sky beneath his feet and the earth above him, the spring water flowing backward, and even his consciousness was being violently disturbed.

It is the [Upside-Down Divine Realm].

For any god, their offensive capabilities may be limited, but they are at their most powerful when they are in their respective lairs.

By mobilizing their respective divine domains, they naturally receive the blessing of the power of laws, weakening the strength of outsiders and enhancing their own.

"court death!"

A monster appeared, with a head resembling a bald, hook-nosed man, a body like a bird, but with six wings.

Its six wings flapped, and streams of divine power shot out from the spatial rifts, blasting towards Youming like sharp cones.

It was that egg-swallowing bird father!
But You Ming just watched quietly.

At that moment, his pupils seemed to transform into ripples on the sea. Every attack, every fluctuation of magical power, turned into flowing threads in his eyes, and the threads further faded, turning into nodes.

"It's too messy and unnatural."

Before Youming observed the world, he found that countless natural scenes were harmonious, with very few nodes. If you wanted to change them, you would have to spend more magic power and energy.

However, the divine realm constructed by the [Egg-Eating Bird Father] before him was filled with an unnatural ugliness. Outsiders might not be able to see it, but in You Ming's eyes, it was filled with a chaotic array of nodes.

It's like a poor 3D modeler; the object's topology is a complete mess.

You Ming extended his finger, and the fingerprint reappeared, hitting the largest node precisely.

boom!
The entire inverted divine realm trembled violently.

The entire upside-down temple suddenly collapsed, the laws went out of control, and from its original upside-down state, it instantly crashed down like a mountain collapsing, turning all the scenes in the divine realm into ashes.
