From the Carp that Brings Children to the Celestial Officials

Chapter 287 The Carefree Little Immortal

After some negotiation, You Ming finally emerged from the City God Temple in Donglong Prefecture, Sizhou.

In Lingzhou, the Immortal Path is the dominant force, but in other parts of the Nine Provinces, the Divine Path still reigns supreme.

After Pan Sui Tian Fu fled, You Ming appeared above the city with immense power, directly alarming the nearby gods.

Therefore, the local judge led his divine troops to investigate.

Because You Ming belonged to the same lineage of gods, after explaining the situation, these gods did not make things difficult for him.

It's just that he should restrain his magical power in the future.

After all, for ordinary people, You Ming's power is far too dangerous.

Of course, the reason why the gods of Donglong Prefecture are so easy to talk to may also be related to the strength that You Ming has shown.

Although You Ming is still at the [Dharma Aspect] level, his combat power has subtly surpassed this level. At this level, even the gods of Donglong Prefecture wouldn't dare say they could capture him.

Therefore, with the idea that it's better to avoid trouble, the matter was left unresolved.

After leaving Donglong Prefecture, You Ming used the [Transformation at Will] supernatural power.

The surrounding space surged, and countless scenes were constantly shrinking. The next moment, he seemed to be "spit out" by countless spaces and jumped out directly.

At this moment, he was already standing in the sky above Yuanling Mountain.

Countless formations across the entire Yuanling Mountain were activated simultaneously, countless rays of light rippled, and the Azure Divine Tree within the cave stretched out its branches and leaves, with wisps of spiritual energy gushing outwards.

The mountain spirits left the temple and bowed to the sky.

They knew that the magistrate had returned.

You Ming did not greet the crowd, but went straight to the temple and government office. The moment he sat on the altar, a divine light spread out, instantly enveloping the villages under his jurisdiction and the thousands of miles of Yinshan.

All living beings sensed this in the unseen realm, feeling their bodies relax and their moods inexplicably improve.

32
……

Five years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Once cultivators reach the [Dharma Aspect] level, their lifespan is three thousand years, and time becomes a luxury for them, yet also something they have an exceptionally large amount of time to spare.

Cultivation knows no time; You Ming merely consolidated his drastically increased magical power before time slipped away.

In recent years, the new city has been improving day by day.

The Feng River flows through the city, which has nine gates and eight neighborhoods, with streets and alleys crisscrossing like a chessboard.

The city is peaceful and prosperous, while agriculture and sericulture are well-organized outside the city, presenting a harmonious scene.

What amazes outsiders most is that almost every household here is filled with children, and the sound of children crying can be heard all over the alley.

Moreover, children who grow up here are generally quite robust and have a more upright appearance than those from other places.

Some children born more than ten years ago have now grown into teenagers, each one outstanding. Even though they are not yet of marriageable age, matchmakers have already come knocking on their door.

Most importantly, more than a decade ago, Taoist cultivators began to open schools in various parts of the region.

Some children with good natural aptitude were brought into the mountain gate after they turned eight.

However, most children of average talent, because they also received an education, not only studied scriptures and learned martial arts, but also received nourishment from Youming's innate divine authority [Tai Guang Qi Yin], most of them had extraordinary physiques and could speak eloquently.

Even without cultivation, he is still a promising talent for governing the country and serving in the army. With the people living in peace and harmony, You Ming can concentrate on his cultivation.

Within the grotto, the leaves of the Azure Divine Tree swayed gently, constantly drawing spiritual energy from the void.

As its branches and leaves trembled, spiritual energy rippled outwards, transforming into a sky full of spiritual rain that descended within the cave.

Because the spiritual energy here cannot be dispersed, it will eventually turn into wispy clouds that float high up, making the entire cave look like a small fairyland.

You Ming consumes very little spiritual energy during his cultivation; at most, he absorbs spiritual energy to replenish his own consumption.

After all, he not only has no shortage of mana, but his mana is even a bit too abundant. If he really wants to increase his mana reserves, he can directly use the [Twin Core] to double his mana.

It is precisely because of this that the spiritual energy inside the cave is now extremely abundant.

In order to release this spiritual energy, You Ming even ordered people to find some medicinal herb seeds and opened up a medicinal garden of hundreds of acres in the cave.

Then, from the Creation Pool, they used incense to create some divine people specifically responsible for tending the medicinal herb garden.

Because they were for personal use, these divine beings were highly intelligent and had excellent aptitude. Although they were few in number, each of them possessed the strength of the Profound Light level and was born with the wood attribute, which allowed them to take good care of these medicinal gardens.

"Lulu lulu".

You Ming sat cross-legged on a branch of the Azure Divine Tree, looking up at the sky in front of him. A plant that looked like a dandelion was floating in the air, making cheerful noises.

As soon as these "dandelions" landed, they instantly transformed into figures that resembled humans.

The youngest looked like a boy of fourteen or fifteen, while the oldest were around thirty years old; all of them possessed a pure and untainted spirit.

Their skin was a warm, emerald green, like tender leaves in spring, with a thin, translucent radiance flowing across its surface, appearing and disappearing with each breath.

Her hair was a deep, dark green, like vines, cascading down her back and swaying slightly as she walked, accompanied by a faint scent of grass and trees.

Her ears were slightly pointed, her pupils were light brown, and her nails were slightly long, with a pale blue sheen.

These beings are the new divine people created by You Ming, named the [Zhixi Clan].

They are born with an affinity for wood spirits and medicinal properties, and can take care of the medicinal herb garden within the cave.

There are about three hundred of these Zhixi people. They are slightly more intelligent than humans, but due to their physical structure, they cannot speak like humans and can only utter some simple syllables.

They communicate by transmitting information through their hearts.

Younger members of the Zhixi tribe floated above the nursery, channeling the spiritual energy so that different kinds of medicinal herbs could better absorb it.

Some of the older ones would bury their feet in the soil, and in an instant their bodies would transform into clusters of enormous plants, with countless roots surging beneath the soil, constantly harnessing the earth's energy and nurturing the medicinal properties in this way.

"Jingle Bell."

You Ming is still a bit of a homebody. After the cave was built, he moved his office here and spent most of his time transmitting information outward with his divine sense.

However, just as he was watching the Zhixi people tending the nursery and taking a rare moment of relaxation, he heard a clear bell ringing from outside.

The bell rang softly; though not loud, it was full of penetrating power, which You Ming sensed immediately.

"Ok?"

"It's the City God's messenger."

He waved his hand, and a crack appeared in the cave, from which a visiting card flew in from the outside and landed in his hand.
