From the Carp that Brings Children to the Celestial Officials

Chapter 335: Killed in Seconds

You Ming's upper body crashed heavily to the ground, although the flesh and blood of his upper and lower body continued to writhe, trying to heal his body.

However, the ring seemed to possess some kind of strong resistance, remaining at You Ming's wound and actually making his injury worse.

This [Original Nature Great Divine Power] is the strongest divine power that You Ming has mastered.

Its derived life essence is incredibly powerful, and its physical body can change freely. Although it cannot reach the point of rebirth from a drop of blood, it makes the body completely free of any vital organs, and its flesh and blood can regenerate at any time. Even if it is dismembered into eight pieces, it can quickly recover.

"Swish swish."

You Ming was thinking this when suddenly several more halos appeared in succession.

Horizontal cut, vertical cut, diagonal cut.

A series of halos emerged from the void, flashing by in an instant, yet incredibly sharp.

You Ming's body was immediately dismembered into eight pieces.

His flesh and blood continued to grow, but he ultimately failed to integrate his own will into every inch of his flesh and blood.

As his body was cut into tiny pieces, everything went black before his eyes, and his health bar was instantly emptied.

The next moment, You Ming appeared in the outer cave.

His face was slightly pale, clearly indicating that he had suffered considerable mental strain.

The feeling of death is not pleasant. Although he had just simulated death, the thought of it still made his heart pound.

“The envoy of Taiming…the descendant of the void.”

At the very moment You Ming was killed, he sensed a piece of information.

But that was all; he didn't even see a shadow of his opponent, which meant that his opponent's strength was almost overwhelming.

"Damn, this must be equivalent to a cultivator at the third level, at least in terms of attack power."

You Ming was somewhat frustrated, but at the same time, he had no choice but to accept reality.

The final boss of this dungeon must be an immortal or higher being, so it's perfectly normal for it to contain elite monsters of the third level or higher.

Moreover, the higher the level, the stronger the final drop will be.

Even though he had played all his cards, he was perfectly capable of dealing with his opponent.

But You Ming didn't want to use his trump card so early; he felt this was an opportunity to train himself.

After being killed in the dungeon, he needed to rest for a day or two. You Ming didn't rush to enter the dungeon. After recovering for a while, he appeared in the Yin City Dharma Realm of Yuanling County.

He sat in the main seat and summoned Wu Mo.

"Registrar Wu, are there any sects that refine weapons in Bingzhou or the surrounding prefectures?"

"I have some materials and I'd like to find someone to help me refine some magical artifacts."

You Ming recently acquired a lot of materials, but it would be a waste to leave them lying around. He decided to sell some of the materials he could sell and then refine a few handy magical artifacts.

Just as the Golden Boy God said, how can a cultivator be without magical artifacts?

"The largest weapon-refining sect in Bingzhou should be the Iron Refining Sect, located in the Jinshan area south of Ping'an Prefecture. Then, the more famous weapon-refining sects in Sizhou are Red Wind Valley and Sword Forging Cliff."

"There are also some smaller sects, but their strongest members are only at the Yin God level."

After a moment's thought, Wu Mo spoke.

As the head steward of Yuanling Mountain, he had to be involved in all aspects of affairs. Yuanling Mountain had sold a batch of treasures that You Ming had obtained from the [Autumn Hunt of Zhenshan], so he had dealt with these sects.

“I’m planning to forge a weapon related to space recently. Tell them to have each sect come up with a forging plan, and I’ll provide the materials.”

“You can send one piece of the main ingredient to each of them, and then see which one’s plan is suitable and ask them to help you refine it.” “Even if it’s not suitable, each one will contribute a thousand strands of divine power.”

You Ming spoke slowly to Wu Mo.

This was a last resort. Although Yuanling Mountain was wealthy, its foundation was too shallow. He himself was focused on cultivation and knew nothing about alchemy or weapon crafting. He did not intend to spend too much effort on these areas.

Of course, if you draw some cheat codes, that's another story.

With this in mind, You Ming made a plan. He decided to spend a hundred or even several hundred years gradually cultivating cultivators in alchemy, weapon crafting, and other professions.

Otherwise, it would be a real shame if he couldn't convert all those resources into high-value-added products.

"Yes."

Wu Mo nodded and was about to go down to do his business when You Ming stopped him.

"Wu Mo, you've been following me for over ten years now."

You Ming looked at Wu Mo, adopting a casual, conversational manner.

"It has been fifteen years and three months since I came to Yuanling Mountain."

Wu Mo maintained a respectful demeanor.

"Among all the auxiliary gods of Yuanling Mountain, I have the highest opinion of you. You are highly learned, intelligent, and meticulous in your work. The many miscellaneous affairs of Yuanling Mountain are handled in an orderly manner by you."

You Ming continued.

Wu Mo lowered his head slightly and did not speak.

“Although your main path is the divine path, relying too much on the system is ultimately a major limitation. I have told you before that if possible, you should try to cultivate a secondary path.”

"Whether it's the path of immortals, the path of ghosts, or the path of demons and beasts, there are always advantages and no disadvantages."

You Ming spoke earnestly, because the power of Shinto officials comes from the system. Once they are cut off from the Shinto, they are no different from wandering ghosts.

Wu Mo was about to speak when You Ming raised his hand to stop him.

“I know that your aptitude for cultivation is not high, or even inferior. Walking the path of immortality will be very difficult, while walking the path of ghosts is not in line with your personality.”

Cultivation requires aptitude. You Ming himself started as a lowly carp, so he naturally knows the hardships involved.

You're not qualified. Unless you cheat, no matter how hard you try, it's useless.

"You should swallow these things now."

You Ming raised his hand and waved, and eight beams of light fell down. These beams hovered in front of Wu Mo and looked like semi-transparent beads the size of fists.

Wu Mo didn't speak or ask any questions out of curiosity. He simply opened his mouth and swallowed all the pearls.

You Ming nodded in satisfaction. What he admired most about Wu Mo was that he knew what to ask and what not to ask, and he was decisive and didn't drag things out.

"These are treasures I obtained by chance that can improve your aptitude and give you some spatial talent. Go back and find some related cultivation methods."

You Ming gave Wu Mo the [Devouring Realm Essence], which grants a person a slight affinity for space.

Although the improvement in qualifications was limited, it was enough for Wu Mo.

After all, gods have long lifespans, and as long as they have the aptitude, they can spend time cultivating slowly.

These [Devouring Realm Essence] are all drops from the Collapsed Void Giant Realm. As long as the dungeon is not cleared, these monsters will keep appearing, so Youming will naturally not be stingy with this resource.

"Thank you, sir!"

Wu Mo's usually calm face finally showed a hint of excitement, and he knelt heavily on the ground.
