From the Carp that Brings Children to the Celestial Officials

Chapter 469 Cheating is Fun for a Moment (Fourth Update, Please Vote)

After a brief period of commotion, the scene quieted down again.

The bells rang out, golden light descended, and Ao Yun began to read out the rules for the fourth level:
"The fourth event is called Spirit Taming. Various deities can choose from four types of beasts: mortal, spirit, demon, and ferocious to awaken their spirits."

"The best is the one who can make all beasts intelligent, spiritual, and submissive. If the beasts under one's control are wild and unruly or turn against their master, then it is a failure."

This fourth challenge tests the various candidate factions' ability to enlighten and tame numerous beasts.

For water deities, this is a very important evaluation criterion.

Because they are in charge of the waters, the number of human believers is very small, and most of the incense offerings come from various aquatic creatures.

How to make aquatic creatures more easily develop intelligence and be obedient enough to provide offerings is a very complex subject.

In this competition, there are four types of beasts to choose from, and each type requires a different approach.

For example, "ordinary beasts" refers to the most common wild animals.

These beasts are the most docile, naturally revering the power of the gods, but it is not easy to awaken their intelligence.

The spirit beasts are the easiest to awaken their intelligence because they are born with extraordinary bloodlines. However, to control a spirit beast, you must gain its approval. Many spirit beasts are proud by nature and would rather die than submit. You cannot make them compromise even with violence.

Demonic beasts refer to those that can transform into demons and, in the future, refine their transverse bones to become demon cultivators. They are not as difficult to tame as spirit beasts, nor as difficult to enlighten as wild beasts. However, you can also understand it the other way around: they are more difficult to enlighten than spirit beasts and more difficult to tame than wild beasts.

As for ferocious beasts, most of them are mindless and tyrannical creatures. Their intelligence is not bad, but they are easily out of control and their bloodlines are extremely unstable. They are practically the mentally ill among beasts.

Getting a high score in this level is very difficult unless you have some specific strategies for dealing with all four types of beasts.

As Ao Jun finished reading the rules, bubbles suddenly rose across the entire Bibo Lake, each containing a beast of varying sizes.

"Fellow Daoist You Ming, how about you make the move this round?"

Fairy Taochuan looked at You Ming and said with a charming smile.

She was half-joking, and also testing You Ming.

After all, You Ming's performance in the first three rounds was too strong, so strong that she herself lost the confidence to make a move.

"Okay, I'll do it then."

You Ming actually thought about it seriously. If he could get a high score in this round, then there would be no need to compete in the fifth round.

Because the other factions all scored zero in the third stage, they naturally had one less skill than themselves.

He also felt that it would be best to save some trouble.

The fifth challenge was a battle of magic, which he naturally disliked. Besides, these kids weren't very strong, so there was no sense of accomplishment in winning.

"Fellow Daoist, you're not joking, are you?"

Fairy Taochuan looked at You Ming, trying to determine whether his words were true or false, but seeing You Ming's serious expression, she nodded.

Everyone in their camp now has complete confidence in You Ming, as if everything is within his grasp as long as he takes action.

"Looks like I'll have to use cheat codes for this level too."

You Ming had no psychological burden about using cheat codes; he was just considering which cheat code to use.

Not far from You Ming, Qi Tianjie watched his back.

"I'm sure I can beat you in this round!"

The second and third trials dealt Qi Tianjie a significant blow, but he still decided to participate in the fourth. This was because his illusion magic was not merely a trick of the eye; it could create dreams through illusion, reshape the consciousness of beasts, and allow them to experience countless scenes within the illusion, naturally giving rise to sentience and submitting to him.

He didn't believe that You Ming, a "brute" who only knew how to use magic to bully others, could perform well in the spirit control test.

"It's a pity that the Yellow Millet World can't be used. Ao Jun is watching from the sky. Otherwise, I could send these beasts into the Yellow Millet World and speed up time. The Yellow Millet Dream would be over in no time."

Just as Qi Tianjie was about to use illusion magic to create a dream, a similar thought flashed through You Ming's mind.

However, even without using the "Dream of the Yellow Millet," he still has other methods.

He quickly opened the compass and dialed the cheat code.

In an instant, a thick book, seemingly made of parchment, appeared in his hand.

The book's corners are inlaid with animal teeth, and its four corners are slightly curved, as if they might bite at any moment, giving it a primitive feel.

However, this book was generated using cheat codes, and only he himself could see it.

The Book of Animal Husbandry!
It can disregard the natural growth cycle, allowing livestock to go from gestation to maturity in an instant.

You Ming used this cheat code to deliver the baby for the previous Jiang Shen; it worked very well.

So what are we waiting for? Let's start cheating... oh no, let's start the competition!

You Ming looked up at the bubbles floating in the sky, and inside these bubbles were various types of beasts.

"Let's gather some ordinary beasts first."

With a thought, You Ming instantly flipped through the Book of Animal Husbandry, and beams of light appeared on each page, imprinting the images of the mortal beasts within.

Almost simultaneously, images and names of more than twenty ordinary beasts appeared on those papers.

Marsh deer: It resembles a deer but is smaller, with a bluish-brown body and often wet marks under its hooves.

Stone Badger: Its back has a stone-like pattern, its belly is as white as snow, it likes to live in the belly of mountains, and it can dig burrows in rocks...

These ordinary beasts had no ability to resist Youming and were directly added to the Book of Animal Husbandry.

The moment their images entered the Book of Animal Husbandry, they immediately formed a connection with the book and then automatically recognized Youming as their master.

When Kan Kun's name was first entered into the Book of Animal Husbandry, he was forcibly controlled, let alone these ordinary beasts.

Then, in an instant, You Ming activated the book, and beams of light reversed and fell on these beasts one after another.

All the beasts are growing in size rapidly.

This is the function of the Book of Animal Husbandry, which allows the animals in the book to instantly reach maturity.

After all, this cheat code is commonly used by players who focus on crafting in the game, allowing all their pets to mature instantly, eliminating the need to wait.

However, even when these mortal beasts reach maturity, they cannot develop sentience.

But You Ming wasn't worried at all.

On the surface, a brilliant [Divine Covenant of Fetal Light] rose from the back of his head. This was a divine authority he had fused with using cheat codes. Wherever the light shone, the fertility rate of living beings increased, and they became healthier and stronger.

Behind the scenes, he continued to manipulate the compass, activating the second cheat code.

[Innate Bloodline]!
To uncover the most powerful bloodline hidden within living beings and to express it.
