From the Carp that Brings Children to the Celestial Officials

Chapter 468 A Little Gambling for Fun (Third Update, Please Vote!)
You Ming gently stretched out one hand, and an invisible force was instantly released along his palm, covering the three thousand miles of the boundary pool in an instant.

At that moment, time seemed to stand still.

Then all the sediment, yin energy, death energy, and decaying leaves instantly dissipated in the white light.

The sound of the churning water gradually faded, and the fishy smell was erased by some inexplicable force. The water changed from black to gray, and then from gray to transparent.

All negative and unclean forces are dissolving, as if the filth had never existed.

At the same time, an extremely pleasant scent wafted out, resembling sandalwood or the fragrance of flowers and trees, but upon closer inspection, it seemed as if there was nothing at all.

In fact, this is not a fragrance in the conventional sense, but rather represents "purity" that is free from dust, odor, and form.

It is like the aura of an immortal, representing the Taoist cultivation, purity, and purity free from disaster and calamity.

"Um...it's over?"

Looking at the clear water in front of him, You Ming was actually a little surprised.

He was just trying it out on a whim, but he never expected the cheat code for "Automatic Incense" to be so amazing.

But thinking about it, it's normal, because you can't use conventional thinking to figure out cheat codes.

It is essentially a form of interference with the rules. Even some seemingly weak cheat codes can produce amazing results if used in the right place.

Take this "automatic incense" feature, for example. This cheat code works on an individual, whether that individual is as big as an ant, as big as a mountain, or even as big as the whole world. It can clean up any object.

In fact, at one point, Youming even wondered what the effect would be if he used this thing on the entire earth.

But he quickly stopped himself from having this wicked thought.

What if, during the identification of this cheat code, all living beings are mistaken for garbage and debris on the earth, and all life is wiped out at once?

Congratulations, you have accomplished the destruction of the world.

From now on, I should stop cultivating. Heaven won't rest until it kills me.

As You Ming was reflecting on this, he didn't notice that the gods and cultivators preparing to clean up the [Boundary Pool] participating in the competition, as well as the spectators watching from the outside, all erupted into a frenzy after a moment of stunned silence.

What the hell is going on? How did the [Boundary Pool] turn from turbid to clear in an instant?

Because all of this happened so fast, even the lords of those great rivers and lakes were somewhat bewildered at this moment.

Even with their strength, it would be difficult to clean up the turbid water for three thousand miles in an instant.

"Quickly find out what happened!"

The divine senses of all the lords of the great rivers and streams instantly covered all directions, locking down the entire [Boundary Pool].

"It's You Ming."

"He just used some kind of supernatural power to cleanse the entire [Boundary Pool] completely."

Ao Jun's voice slowly drifted over.

She had actually been secretly watching You Ming all along, and she witnessed him unleash that divine power.

She simply didn't know the origin of this supernatural power, which was capable of achieving this.

Dispelling turbid air is not a simple matter. Various negative forces are mixed with the water flow, making it very difficult to remove.

In particular, it contains karmic energy.

This is almost like poison to the gods.

"You Ming?"

"It's him again!"

The other examiners each glanced at him; You Ming's performance had been increasingly astonishing from the first round until now.

This third challenge is ridiculously outrageous; it single-handedly purified the entire boundary pool, leaving no way for anyone else to survive. So how is this scored?

Give You Ming full marks? And zero marks to everyone else?
This is ridiculous; it's never been done this way before.

But right now, the others haven't achieved anything, since no one has even started yet.

The examiners exchanged a few thoughts in an instant, but they were troubled.

"Since we are in charge of the assessment, we will naturally judge truthfully. There is no need to hesitate."

"Judgment should be made according to the established rules."

"We are selecting candidates for the Shinto path, not assigning seating arrangements. Why should we consider the feelings of the losers?"

In the end, Ao Jun made the final decision and settled the matter.

She was the lord of the Cangyuan River, holding the highest position among the gods, and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

They were actually worried that Ao Jun would side with Ao Yunhai, even though one was from the East Sea and the other from the South Sea, both were dragons.

It seems that the Ninth Princess of the East Sea is fair and just, much better than many of the dragons with bad tempers.

……

"How...how could this happen?"

Qi Tianjie stared blankly at the clear, transparent lake water that even had a faint, clean fragrance.

Looking at the scores floating in the sky, the Fengshui River God's camp had 30 points in this level, while the other camps had zero points.

He found it all particularly glaring.

In his imagination, being able to clean up a hundred miles of lake water would already be an outstanding achievement.

Could it be... could it be that You Ming used the method that cleaned the lake water just now?

How did he do it?
Qi Tianjie had always harbored resentment towards You Ming for stealing his Great Dao Shadow, because the [Myriad Realms Mirage] was perfectly suited to his cultivation path, and You Ming had forcibly plundered his opportunity.

He had been looking for an opportunity to get back at his opponent, but now it seemed that the gap between him and his opponent was widening.

"To hell with your ancestors."

"What the hell is going on?"

"Could there be something fishy going on?"

Meanwhile, on the outside viewing platform, many of the gods were devastated. Most of them were based on rational analysis and felt that the Invisible Water Demon had the best chance. Some others simply listened to the Kitchen God's analysis and also bet on the Invisible Water Demon to win.

Now, the River God of Fengshui has won the third round again, and they are all going crazy.

At several betting locations, three chubby little ash gods, each with a strip of cloth wrapped around their face, happily began collecting the divine money bags on the table.

Hahaha, the Kitchen God was truly prescient! We're going to be rich!

The Kitchen God, hiding behind the crowd, had his beard twitching up and down, clearly feeling very pleased with himself.

However, he quickly ducked his head and found a secluded place to hide.

Given his previous actions of encouraging everyone to bet on the invisible water demon, if he were exposed, he would definitely get a scolding. It's better to keep quiet and make a fortune.

"I'm not saying anything more, kids. Let's quit while we're ahead. We won't bet anymore."

He put away the three money bags sent by the God of Ashes, counted them, and felt extremely happy.

However, gambling in moderation is harmless; it's best to know when to stop. If you keep betting, you might lose everything you've won, which isn't worth it.
