Overgod Ascension Chapter 15

Cultivation techniques and the Chants are all virtual, it is not worthwhile to exchange for them.

But Magical Artifacts, blood and the like are different. 

Therefore, in order to exchange physical artifacts and then bring it to Great Zhou, he would inevitably have to pay more.

"It can be seen that... OverG.o.d Palace is still in a spiritual stage, the process of material transformation, the Initial Level stage... there is a long way to go..."

Wu Ming took a look at his own state:

[Reincarnator Serial Number GS-69]

[Name : Wu Ming]

[Cultivation Base : Mortal Body Realm 5th Layer True Qi]

[Equipment : None]

[t.i.tle : OverG.o.d Apostle]

"It's really almost a whiteboard, ah..."

Wu Ming sighed and immediately exclaimed : "OverG.o.d Palace, paying 100 Minor Merits for an enlightenment for "Spirit Turtle Qi Cultivation Merit" !"

[Ding ! It is detected that Reincarnator owns "Spirit Turtle Qi Cultivation Merit" heart law which meets the requirements ! Consuming 100 Minor Merits, enlightenment begins !]

A white beam of light fell and enveloped Wu Ming.

Almost in an instant, he found that his 750 Minor Merits was deducted by 100, leaving only 650.

Of course, the pain was instantaneous, like a slap in the face, and then Wu Ming's consciousness was shocked, as if he came to the ancient Barbarian Desolate Era.

On the banks of the river, there are plants and trees so straight that it touched the sky, covering the sun and moon, everything around seemed so tall ! It seems like a country of giants !

In the middle of the river, an armor-like, sh.e.l.l-shaped hill suddenly vibrated, making a whistling sound like a dragon !

Hong long ! Hong long !

In the rollings of rocks, a large amount of moss fell, revealing an unique turtle sh.e.l.l texture. Four incomparably large, with scales, there were webs between its toes and tortoise's legs protruding at the ends. The whole hill suddenly stood up and turned into a wild Divine Beast !

"This.... There is a winding pattern of snakes, water and fire in harmony. The sun and moon in balance. This is the ancient Black Tortoise, ah !

Wu Ming's heart was extremely shocked and this scene deeply imprinted in his heart.

The next moment, he returned to the OverG.o.d Palace s.p.a.ce, making him understand what he just saw, it was but a phantom, an illusion !

But with just a glance, it was enough to keep the ancient and desolate aura from immemorial times in mind.

"Although the tortoise is long-lived, there is still a time when the snakes rises in the fog and ends in dust..."

Wu Ming muttered, only to feel a sorrowful surging, filling him with feeling of life's shortness, giving birth to the sensation of earthly dreams and the pursuit of detachment !

In such a mood of artistic conception, the internal qi in his body changed unconsciously. The original qi route turned, becoming profound with sense of authenticity.

Nothing is static, nothing is natural, ignorance and spirit are true!

于无而静，自然而定，无知有灵，乃为真定！

At this point, the Spirit Turtle Qi Cultivation Merit has not only been introduced, it also bought a state of mystery.

[Spirit Turtle Qi Cultivation Merit (Introduction)]

After only G.o.d know how long, Wu Ming looked at the tips that appeared on his personal attributes but his eyes were filled with emotion : "Wu Qing said that the "Spirit Turtle Qi Cultivation Merit" evolved from a Dao Sect secret art. There is a little doorway....The OverG.o.d Palace is fair in its trade !"
(MTL Translator : I think he's talking about the path he can take. It's quite unclear.)

Originally, with his talent, even if he was immersed in the "Spirit Turtle Qi Cultivation Merit", getting started was not a one-off event.

After all, just identifying the relevant acupoints and taking the correct pulses is a matter of caution ! No mistakes are tolerated. Others, even if they are proud sons and daughters of heaven, have to be careful and deliberate in their deductions before daring to practice.

According to him, even if Wu Ming practiced the "Turtle Breathing Technique" which is the same lineage, it would take him at least 100 days to get started.

What is it like now ?

Just after an enlightenment, Wu Ming felt that his True Qi was transformed. Not only that, he had a long breath. If there was nothing, if it is intermittent, it is almost an instinct. It was an upper body martial art that is quite familiar with the flow !
仅仅是一次顿悟之后，吴明便感觉自己体内的真气尽数转化，不仅如此，自己呼吸绵长，若有若无，若断若续，几乎成了本能，乃是功夫上身，熟极而流的体现！

"This single step took at least half a year worth of effort !"

Wu Ming was very satisfied and then turned to the exchange, especially the column of witchcraft and dao arts, what a pity !

"Since Wu Qing said that she wants influence the Dao Inst.i.tute to accept me, even though it was brushed down once, I still have some confidence... In this case, other types of secret arts can't be practiced. Otherwise, the aura won't be pure when it's time to test. It's still a trivial matter. But if I'm treated as a spy of other sects, even the Yellow River cannot wash this stain..."

What can be obtained from Great Zhou, will not be asked to the OverG.o.d Palace. That is the general rule set by Wu Ming.

Just like this time, he obtained the "Spirit Turtle Qi Cultivation Merit" from Wu Qing and there's also the Low-Grade Magical Artifact Black Gold Ring which is almost 1000 Minor Merits.

"It is necessary to keep Merit Points, no less than a last resort method. Before the mission or before everything is ready, I cannot spend recklessly !"

Wu Ming flipped through the exchange list.

He had real vision, and those who have written lack of a natural look. Even so, this time, the OverG.o.d Palace had more than enough to satisfy him.
他有着真实视野，那些写了缺的自然看都不看，但即使如此，此时的主神殿满足他也是绰绰有余了。

"With such weapon in hand, what can't be cultivated ?"

The more Wu Ming looked at it, the more confident he was.

Poor literature and wealth, repair the law ! In order to practice magic, wealth is essential to arts, the most important is money !
穷文富武，修法破家！要想修炼法术，财侣法地必不可少，其中最重要的就是财！

Although it cannot be exchanged immediately, Wu Ming read a lot and understood something.

Even with some of the lowest-level magical techniques, the materials needed are ridiculous.

What kind of iron tires, gold essence, silver puddle are easy, however some materials would make people feel a headache.

For example, to use 'Bao Yinshuo' Daoist art, you needed to collect the hair of babies born in the Yin month, the Yin Day, in the Yin hour and the mother must have 7 or 49 baby girls !

There is also the 'Mourning Door Nail', which needs to be buried for more than a century. The iron nails of the locust wooden coffin in the shade are even required for the cause of death, life and even the name characters of the coffin master!

Not to mention the Top Grade cinnabar, the talisman of six years or more and decade-old, century-old elixir.

Anyway, only you can't think of it. There's no such thing as "I don't need this" !

Some of these materials can't be simply bought with money but still, money and power are indispensable !

"It's no wonder that Wu Qing wants to enter the Dao Inst.i.tute. Daoist preaching does not teach about these miscellaneous configurations... It's not something a little Wu Family can provide..."

Wu Ming blinked his eyes : "But... In the OverG.o.d Palace, these materials are already here. As long as you have enough Merit points, you can get as much as you want ! It's so much convenient, it's difficult to plan well... just..."

Wu Ming thought of an aspect of an egg pain.

Since OverG.o.d Palace charges for the item, there is no reason to bring it out.

According to its Merit Points exchange, it is necessary to pay up twice for this traitorous practice. It is unreasonable to not accept the money on both sides !

In other words, most items bought can only be used in the OverG.o.d s.p.a.ce. If you want to take them out to profit the trade difference ? Hehehe... The tax alone would make it a blood vomiting loss !

"Unfortunately... a pity..."

Wu Ming suddently became depressed : "If my Authority can get rid of this exploitative system, then I'm afraid that I can make a fortune by selling goods..."

....
"Suddenly there is a madman who sharpens the knife in the night, and the emperor star is swaying. The sky is overwhelming. From now on, why you have to kill someone ?" In the study, Wu Ming is holding a book and his face, awkward.

On the front page of the ancient book, with black and white characters, the t.i.tle "History of Talks, Volume Seven" is particularly conspicuous.

Ever since he came to Great Zhou, he didn't understand much of its history. Even if the previous host didn't learn anything, there are still a few books laying around in the study.

Wu Ming was cheaper at this time.

"After Great Xia, there is Great Shang, the last Shang Emperor had no way and Great Zhou great-great-ancestor took advantage of the situation and settled in the Central Plains two hundred and seventy years ago..."

"In the seventh year of the Great Zhou Yongping, the Emperor Ling was reigning and Jingye was in drought. and thousand miles away in Akano, Yellow Turbans rose up. There was the anti-thief Huang Qi who smashed Beijing, forcing the Emperor to move the capital and soon died in fear. The war lasted seventeen years, known as Yongping Rebellion in history. Since then, the Great Zhou Dynasty has been declining, and several emperors have died in succession in less than three years. Until today, the succession is safe, however it is a pity that it is just a 10 years old doll.

“大周永平七年，灵帝在位，京畿大旱，赤野千里，有反贼黄桀，趁势而起，肆乱京畿，迫使灵帝迁都，不久便忧惧而死……此人历时十七年方平，史称永平之乱……自此以后，大周国祚日衰，几任皇帝继位不到三年就相继驾崩，直到当今继位，年号平安，可惜不过一个十余岁的娃娃……”
(likewise, if someone can really capture the meaning of this paragraph, please comment so that I can make relevant change if I ever chance upon it.)

Wu Ming concealed a sigh : "There is no prince in this country, there is no ruler in this country. The inner authority, the princes, the provincial administration, governors invites disaster. The rise of philosophers is truly the chaotic rhythm of the world. I have to lived in a fortress..."

"But what's under the Heavens is not chaotic, and I have little to do with the little shrimp. The important is, why is the anti-poem of Huang Qi so familiar ?"

Wu Ming knocked on his head, put down his book, a little speechless, and prepared to go to the martial arts ground.

"Still familiar... Is there a lot of people crossing over this world ?"

Wu Ming's eyes lost focus and suddenly, his chest stagnated.

"Aiya !"

The girl screamed in pain, and the sound of cups cras.h.i.+ng into the world was heard.

"d.a.m.n slaves ! d.a.m.n it !" The girl in green skirt was frightened and Wu Ming's startled.

"Well ? Miss Xiuyun, it's you !"

Wu Ming recognized the chick in front of him, it was Li Xiuyun.

At the beginning, he was afraid of her and kept hiding in the study room. But when Wu Qing returned, he was not polite to her anymore and directly blasted her away from Wu Ming's bedroom, regaining his 'territory'.

Since then, Wu Ming has rarely seen each other and did not know where to go.

It seems that the current situation is not very good.

"Get up !"

Wu Ming reached his hand, trying to help but saw that the other party looked like a frightened deer and took back his hand.

"Miss Xiuyun... I'm sorry, I'll order someone to send you home !"

Knowing that the other person was deliberately trying to hide, apparently afraid of him, Wu Ming said.

"No ! No ! No ! I will not go back, Young Master, please forgive me ! I am willing to do anything, please don't drive me away !"

Who knows why when Wu Ming wanted to send her home, Li Xiuyun became even more afraid, her body shaking.

Wu Ming even suspected that the other party would try to hug his legs in the next moment and could not help but be curious : "What the h.e.l.l is going on ? Spit it out !"
