The undead have descended upon the world? I possess a sword that can cleave the heavens once more!

Back in the living room, the floor was covered with bags of all sizes, with shopping bags of various colors taking up almost half of the living room space.

Wu You called out towards the training room, "Your clothes have arrived."

His voice was soft, and his tone was flat.

A moment later, a naked, golden-eyed cat-eared little girl walked out of the training room.

His steps were unhurried, his bare feet making a very soft pattering sound on the floor. He had casually tossed the oversized white cotton pajamas at the door of the cultivation room.

He walked to the pile of shopping bags and squatted down, his golden vertical pupils scanning each bag as if selecting prey.

Then He began to unpack the clothes and pick out the ones He wanted to wear.

Wu You wasn't in a hurry, letting Him unpack the package while he took out the stack of records and continued to think about how to integrate and optimize basic sword techniques and martial arts swordsmanship.

The manuscript paper was laid out on the coffee table. He sat on the sofa, leaning slightly forward, the pen tip gliding across the paper, the scratching sound particularly clear in the quiet living room.

Previously, when he was on a support mission in Dayun City, Gongsun Baizhan had asked him for advice on swordsmanship, and he had taught him some of the basic sword techniques.

However, the results were not good.

Even with his personal guidance, Gongsun Baizhan was unable to generate anything similar to or the same as the cool energy within his own body.

At that time, Wu You realized that the cold energy in his body was special and not universally applicable.

Therefore, it is necessary to modify the basic sword techniques so that they can be learned by others.

The martial arts of Qi and Blood in this world can be cultivated by everyone—not almost everyone, not just those who meet certain conditions, but everyone.

Whether you are an ordinary person or a person with special abilities, whether you are male or female, fat or thin, healthy or sick, you can cultivate your Qi and blood martial arts.

The amount of talent one possesses only determines the speed of progress.

Thus, Wu You found his direction: to combine the martial arts of this world with the sword techniques produced by the Sword Manual, forming a unique sword path that could be cultivated for a long time in this world.

If we can't get the people of this world to practice the sword techniques of the Sword Manual, then let the sword techniques of the Sword Manual adapt to the people of this world.

He wanted to combine the martial arts of this world with the sword techniques produced by the Sword Codex, integrating the advantages of both to create a completely new sword path that belonged neither to the Sword Codex nor to the martial arts, but that everyone in this world could cultivate.

Just as Wu You was pondering, a mature, husky female voice sounded in his ear: "Are you pioneering a new method of cultivation?"

The voice was very close, so close it felt like someone was speaking right next to his ear.

Wu You looked up and saw that the golden-eyed cat-eared little girl had changed into a black and white maid outfit.

Her skirt was just knee-length, revealing two sections of her fair and tender calves; the white apron on her upper body was tied with a large bow at the back of her waist, and there was a small black tie with lace trim at the neckline.

To be honest, Wu You didn't know why Wang Qi bought maid outfits among the children's clothes, and why the God of Beasts would choose to wear such an outfit.

His gaze lingered on Him for less than half a second before shifting away expressionlessly.

Before Wu You could ask, the golden-eyed cat-eared girl continued, "That's correct."

"You need more anchors to confirm your existence."

"Otherwise, as the divinity within you increases and your understanding of the rules deepens, you will only become a puppet of the rules."

"even--"

"Assimilated by the rules."

"Yes, where we're from, this is called a divine eclipse."

"Even gods cannot escape its corruption."

Wu You's silver eyebrows furrowed slightly: Divine Erosion, an erosion that even gods cannot escape.

It seems that even gods are not omnipotent; they can be killed and face other problems as well.

The words of the golden-eyed, cat-eared little girl piqued Wu You's curiosity, and the starlight that shimmered in his silver eyes froze slightly: "And then?"

Upon hearing this, the little girl with golden eyes and cat ears, dressed in a miniature black and white maid outfit, shook her head: "That's all."

The answer consisted of only two words, with no follow-up.

Wu You frowned again: "I have already done everything you asked."

"Now it's your turn to keep your promise."

The golden-eyed cat-eared little girl looked at Wu You. Her golden vertical pupils shone brightly in the afternoon light, like two pieces of amber ignited by the sun.

He looked at Wu You with his emotionless golden eyes for two seconds, then spoke:

"There are a few things I need to prepare for you to ascend to godhood. I've already made a list. Once you're ready, we can continue."

As He spoke, He waved His little hand, and specks of golden light appeared in the air in front of Wu You, like golden, shimmering dewdrops, gathering, condensing, and arranging in front of him to form a piece of paper with some golden writing.

The paper hovered about a foot in front of Wu You, with a faint golden light flowing around its edges.

Wu You reached out and took it.

Before Wu You could examine it closely, the mature, husky female voice rang out again: "As for the information about divinity—"

"Didn't I just tell you how to balance your divinity?"

After saying that, He turned and walked towards the cultivation room, the bow behind Him swaying slightly with His movements.

Wu You sat on the sofa, holding the list with gold lettering in his hand, his brows furrowed.

Balancing divinity...

Is it the "anchor point" He mentioned? An anchor point that allows one to locate their own existence?

But what is an "anchor point"?

What does this have to do with his desire to integrate sword manuals and martial arts with qi and blood to create a sword path that can be cultivated in this world?

Could it be that his process of creating a new swordsmanship was itself a process of finding an anchor point?

Then, a flash of inspiration struck.

After a sword technique is created, it still needs people to practice it. Could it be that those who practice the sword technique he created are his anchor points?

Wu You couldn't help but think about the other person's identity.

He is the progenitor of all beasts, the sole deity of all beasts, and has many subjects and believers.

In the Corpse Realm, when His power was still complete—He was a supreme god worshipped by countless beings.

Are His people and believers not merely His subordinates or his subjects? Do they serve other purposes?

For example—anchor points?

Thinking about this, Wu You couldn't help but recall a piece of information he had received before: that faith can condense divinity!

His silver eyes narrowed slightly as he looked towards the training room: This information was also obtained from the other party, and it's still unknown whether it's true or false.

If that's true, then many things would make sense.

At this moment, the door to the training room was not completely closed.

Through the half-open door, Wu You could see a small figure dressed in a black and white maid outfit standing sideways in front of the energy concentration controller, seemingly adjusting the energy concentration in the training room.

A moment later, He turned around, and his golden vertical pupils met Wu You's silver eyes through the half-open door.

Then He shifted His gaze, walked to the center of the cultivation chamber, sat down in the area where the energy mist was densest, and closed His eyes. The hem of the maid's skirt spread out beside Him, like a black and white flower slowly blooming in the energy mist.

Wu You also withdrew his gaze and looked again at the stack of manuscript papers covered with writing on the coffee table.

"No matter what, we still need to get the first version of the improved basic martial arts sword technique out first."

"Whether it's for the so-called anchor point or to broaden the paths that ordinary people can take."

The thought flashed through Wu You's mind, and then he turned his gaze to the list with gold lettering in his hand.
