The streets were full of people and it was very lively.
with the merchants wearing colorful cloth entertain customers, inviting them to their shop. Chen Ming, along with the now very beautiful Xiao Wen, walked close to each other through many shops with smiles on their faces.
Chen Ming while walking around with interest like a child encountered something new. He found many interesting things. If he could bring these items back to his world. He was sure that he could earn a lot of money by selling them.
They walked around until Chen Ming noticed that Xiao Wen looked at something.
Chen Ming saw what it was and only smiled and said.
“Hey Wen Jiajia, what do you think of this piece of jade? is it pretty.”
*Jiajia = Older Sister
Chen Ming picked up a piece of jade before asking Xiao Wen. Xiao Wen only shook her head and smiled at Chen Ming.
“Young Master, I have to apologize. Xiao Wen had no knowledge of jade. therefore unable to give advice.”
Chen Ming smiled back. He had seen her looking at this piece of jade for a long time, and as he picked up this piece of jade, He saw Xiao Wen's eyes never looking away from it. He thought that she would like it. Young women have always been interested in jewelry. and although she had no knowledge of jade, of course he had the way to verify it.
Seven Moon Jade Pendant(Earth Profound Stage)
Properties: Resist strong yin energy. Strengthen female martial practitioners. Makes them cultivate faster.
Chen Ming wanted to buy this jade for Xiao Wen as a gift.
“How much is this?”
The merchant selling this jade was not a normal merchant. He wasn't wearing fancy clothes, but was wearing tattered clothes. He was selling this jade in the middle of the market with a single piece of cloth spread on the ground. He looked hesitant to part with this jade. He probably needed the money for some reason.
"Young Master this jade is the last piece of my inheritance that I have left. I don't want money. But I want to trade it for Snow Ginseng.”
The people who were walking around heard that the poor merchant wanted Snow Ginseng as a payment. They all looked at him as if he had gone insane.
“Snow Ginseng is not something that money can buy. It was an important ingredient for refining an Earth Profound level pill. Hmph, did you really think this worthless jade is worth that much! Whoever pays for it is a fool.”
“Shameless, It is not even worth ten years old ginseng, let alone snow ginseng.”
The people started to go into insulting mode. They're just too much. It wasn’t even their business. What the heck was the insult for. Chen Ming didn't understand.
“Social bullying, no matter the world, is still the same.”
Chen Ming sighed. He didn’t have Snow Ginseng. He wanted to give this piece of jade to Xiao Wen to thank her for taking care of him. Chen Ming thought for a moment before asking.
“Merchant, I don't have Snow Ginseng. and I thought that there might not be any people around here who have it as well. Or if they had, they wouldn't exchange it for this piece of jade. Merchant, I would like to ask some questions. Will it be alright?”
The poor merchant listened and thought the same thing as Chen Ming. He looked at Chen Ming and thought he was a good person. Maybe he could help him.
“It’s alright Young Master, please ask.”
Chen Ming nodded before asking.
“Merchant, why do you want Snow Ginseng?”
The merchant's expression after hearing the question darkened and filled with despair before speaking.
“Young Master, the reason why I want Snow Ginseng is to bring it to heal my daughter. She was the last treasure I had in this world. If she leaves, I have nothing left. Young Master, please help me.”
Chen Ming when heard that he felt sad for some reason.
He was usually someone who was sympathetic. It made him want to help people if he can. He might not be able to help everyone. But whoever he could help, he wanted to help. Chen Ming believed in the law of karma. Doing good things and good things will happen to you.
“Merchant, if I can help your daughter. Will the merchant give this jade to me?”
The poor merchant, hearing that, his dark eyes brightened.
“Of course, let alone jade. I am ready to give my life to you.”
Chen Ming smiled before nodding his head.
“Merchant, please take me to your daughter.”
The merchant nodded before hurriedly getting up. He bowed to Chen Ming. before leading him in one direction within Duan Yang City.
The place he was leading Chen Ming and Xiao Wen into was a less developed area within the city. There were no beautiful houses here. But it's just a wooden shed built from rough wood put together, it can only be used to protect from rain and sun. It wouldn't be able to help with the cold that much.
Chen Ming looked around. This was like a poor slum. Chen Ming walked in, it looked dirty and poor, but he didn't care. and followed the merchant without hesitation. As a result, he gained even more respect from Xiao Wen.
“Young Master, please come this way. This is my little home with my little daughter. It might be a disgrace that I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Zhong Yang. As for my little daughter, her name is Diao Lin.”
Chen Ming smiled before speaking.
"It's alright, don't worry. My name is Chen Ming. As for this beautiful young lady, her name was Xiao Wen. My older sister."
Chen Ming introduced himself. Xiao Wen looked at Chen Ming with wide eyes. The girl's face was slightly red because Chen Ming had introduced her as a beautiful young lady. and also it felt good that he called her a sister instead of servant.
“Chen Ming…? AH!!! It's you! the heir of the Chen Clan who rules over the city, Young Master Chen, I don't know it’s you, please forgive my stupidity!”
Zhong Yang knelt down and apologized to Chen Ming. Chen Ming furrowed his brows together before stopping Zhong Yang before it was too much.
“Stop it Mr.Zhong Yang, I told you not to worry. I'm not an evil person, I might have a bad reputation. But I never hurt anyone for no reason.”
Zhong Yang, hearing that, was embarrassed. He was afraid of Chen Ming.
He just heard rumors and never saw them with his own eyes.
“Well leave the matter aside, your daughter's situation is more important. Please take me to meet your daughter."
“Please, young master.”
Zhong Yang led Chen Ming into his shed. Inside the shed was a young girl lying in a dirty blanket. Chen Ming looked at her face. This girl had a cute face. But her lovely face was now very pale.
Chen Ming immediately checked her status.
Sun Lin
Level 87
Stage Qi Gathering Stage(Middle)
Health 20/1740
Energy 870/870
Status Poisoned(Dragon Tongue)
‘She doesn't have the surname Diao or Zhong, but Sun?’
Chen Ming's brows furrowed together. He wanted to ask Zhong Yang about this as to why he had lied to him, but when he thought about it, he probably had a reason. And asking about it might turn out to be a big deal. Chen Ming examined Zhong Yang's name and found that his family name was the normal Zhong family. Plus, his profound level was just an ordinary person.
“Really weird.”
And while Chen Ming was hesitating, he received a message.
Mission help Sun Lin
Duration 5 hours
Reward: A Scroll for Concocting a Qi Foundation Stage Level Pill.
Chen Ming hesitated a little. But the hesitation disappeared after seeing the mission. “The system wants me to help Sun Lin…” Chen Ming understood one thing after coming to this world. The system always helped him to get stronger no matter what. Chen Ming looked at the worried Zhong Yang. He seemed to be hiding something. Chen Ming took a deep breath. before asking Zhong Yang with seriousness. “Merchant Zhong, this girl is not your daughter right?” Zhong Yang heard that, he trembled and looked at Chen Ming in fear. He was afraid that Chen Ming would do something when he found out the truth. Zhong Yang hurriedly lowered his head and immediately apologized to Chen Ming. He could not afford to offend him now. or the matter would become worse. “Young Master Chen, I was wrong, I deserved to die, but please, young miss didn't do anything wrong. Please help her.” “Young Miss?” Chen Ming began to feel that the girl must have some background for him to refer to her as Young Miss. “Yo
Sun Lin(???) Level 87 Health 1740/1740 Energy 870/870 Status Healthy Chen Ming examined Sun Lin. He pretended to check her pulse. But he actually checked her status. He, after seeing the poison status had disappeared, let out a smile. Mission Completed Receive 1 Qi Foundation Level Pill Concocting Scroll. Chen Ming, after checking Sun Lin's status, turned to Zhong Yang before speaking. “The poison has been completely expelled. Soon the young miss would wake up and regain her consciousness.” Zhong Yang was glad to hear that. He was relieved and grateful to Chen Ming. “Thank you young master for your kindness. If not for Young Master, I don’t know what will happen to young miss…” Chen Ming shook his head before speaking. “I only did what I was supposed to do. I did it for the things that I needed. Hopefully Merchant Zhong will still remember the agreement between us.” Merchant Zhong heard that and smiled before hurriedly taking out the jade and respectfully giving it to Che
“You all!! How dare you insult the young master. My adorable Didi You will live no longer!” Chen Ming, who was looking at the situation, heard what Xiao Wen had said and was very surprised and moved. She released a huge amount of killing intent along with the pressure of her profound energy. The Qi Gathering Stage was not a joke. This was the first time Chen Ming witnessed a real super human power in this world. And on top of that, Xiao Wen had a profound strength at the Middle level and was about to break through to an Advanced one. With such power, it was able to easily suppress the Qi Foundation Stage to the point that they started to fall on their knees without much difficulty. Zhang Sanfeng was able to sense a high level of profound energy. The expression filled with pride gradually disappeared. He looked at Xiao Wen with eyes filled with fear. He knew he was fuked up now. ‘Why would there be a Qi Gathering Stage practitioner here!? I didn’t agree to this!’ Zhang Sanfeng fu
“How is that possible? It couldn’t be possible!!” Zhang Sanfeng now looked at Chen Ming as if he was a demon. He didn't expect Chen Ming to be this strong. He used just one palm to kill his subordinates as easily as breathing. “If this continues. We all will die. Retreat!, Retreat!” Zhang Sanfeng retreated as soon as he saw that Chen Ming alone had defeated more than ten of them. Not including Xiao Wen. At this moment, there were only less than twenty of them left. If more were to die it will affect the group in the long run. “Hmm, that bastard dared to deceive us that it is an easy job with a thousand gold taels, haha. How foolish I am.” Zhang Sanfeng clenched his teeth until blood fell down from the corner of his mouth. Zhang Sanfeng's subordinates, hearing that they had to withdraw their forces, immediately followed the command. They didn’t want to be here any further. They knew that if they continued to fight, they had all been killed. Chen Ming saw that the enemies had
Zhang Sanfeng at this moment spit out blood, his injury was very severe. Although he still had a tenth of his life force, He couldn’t fight the same way as when his health was full. His health was also steadily decreasing at a rapid rate. With every second his life force declined, the dantian and the qi path way inside his body were heavily damaged. He could only use three-tenths of his profound energy. and when he had it full. It was still not enough, There’s no need to mention about his profound energy now. “What technique is that!? It damages my dantian and qi path way I can feel my cultivation base dropping.” Zhang Sanfeng could feel his fear of death. Chen Ming at this moment seemed to have a shadow of death appearing around him. Zhang Sanfeng knew that Chen Ming would definitely kill him. Unknowingly, Chen Ming had created a killing intent for himself but he already had it so the system had to create the alternative. Already learned [killing intent] Upgrade [killing i
Chen Ming, after dealing with Zhang Sanfeng, immediately went back to the Chen family home. He now had a normal expression. But Xiao Wen could feel that he was thinking about something really important. She didn't know what he was actually thinking right now. But she didn't want to leave him alone. “Young Master, are you really okay?” Xiao Wen then told Chen Ming that she would stay with him even when Chen Ming slept but he refused. “Wen Jiajia, this doesn't seem very appropriate. I'm afraid there will be some strange rumor that will hurt your reputation. I might still feel unwell. but it wasn't that bad okay.” Chen Ming smiled at Xiao Wen. He's fine. Even though the feeling when he killed the enemy won’t disappear. He thought it wasn't much. He can control it right now. “Understood, Ming Didi. If you say so, Jiajia would like to report the matter to the foster mother first.” Chen Ming nodded. Xiao Wen looked at Chen Ming with concern. Before giving up and going to Zhang Lin'
“Ah… it feels good.”Chen Ming slowly stood up from his meditation posture. He now emitted an intense aura. Behind him was a formidable dragon shadow. Chen Ming was now refraining from practicing other martial arts. and focusing on the Dragon Breathing Technique instead. Who would have thought that practicing would make the mind so calm?The killing intent that had stained him vanished like a cloud that had vanished into the sunlight.Chen Ming, after seriously cultivating this technique, he felt that the Yang energy in his body became more intense and pure. His profound energy was stronger, making him train faster. Moreover, Chen Ming had already reached the Qi Gathering Stage!“The power o
The sky was bright and cloudless. The sun's light shone all around. Several carriages moved along the road. people talk to each other Now, within everyone's minds, whether single or multiple, they are thinking about the important things they want to get back from the auction.The auction was held in the Wang Clan. They are responsible for overseeing and managing all auctions. The Wang Clan was a famous merchant Clan, but did not have a military force like the Chen Clan.But even if they do not have a military force like the Chen Clan nobody could look down on them. Because they had the money and resources they could hire a bodyguard. such as this auction The Wang Clan had recruited three Qi gathering stage practitioners.Whoever wants to do something bad in this auction. The
Chen Ming and Primordial One looked at the multiverse outside the greater heaven together.The primodial one would give everything he had created here to Chen Ming. All he had to do was just will it. And Chen Ming would receive it just like that."Are you really going to give them to me just like that?"Chen Ming asked him for confirmation.He knew that the Primordial One wanted to start a new family outside of this multiverse. But wasn't it too much for him to just throw everything at him like that?"Yes, I'll give them to you. I think 10,000 years is enough for you to know what to do about it. You already have family inside, so the outside might not be that alluring to you."The Primodial One spoke as he could feel that Chen Ming might not want to get out of here. Here, he had everything that he needed. Why would he want to go outside?Chen Ming nodded. It was as he said. In here, he had everything that he could ask for. What more could he possibly need?The primodial one continued.
10,000 years have passed.Chen Ming smiled at how big his family was. It was unfortunate that he could not become a grandpa because divine beings were hard to give birth to at this point.His son and daughter were the real deal because they were born divine. Chen Ming's heart swelled with pride as he watched his children grow into powerful divine beings.He couldn't help but wonder what the future held for them and the world they would shape with their hands.Chen Ming then looked at his family, whose faces were filled with love."How long are you going to make my boss wait?"Brian said as he felt jealous of him. Chen Ming chuckled at Brian's comment, knowing that his boss was waiting for him. He replied."Don't worry, I won't keep him waiting much longer. I just can't help but feel grateful for my family and the future they hold." With a final glance at his loved ones, Chen Ming turned to leave, ready to face whatever troubles awaited him."You talked like this would be the last tim
1000 years had passed in the blink of an eye.Chen Ming took cultivation seriously. He had to be stronger in order to become the primodial being."It's very hard."Chen Ming spoke as he tried to balance his existence inside the endless void inside the greater heaven. He could feel the immense pressure weighing down on him, testing his perseverance and resilience. Every moment was a battle against the overwhelming forces of the universe, pushing him to his limits. "Hard is a very little word to describe it, you know."Brian accompanied him while eating an apple. He felt content just seeing him go through the same process as him. Brian had to admit that Chen Ming was better than him when he first tried to balance his existence. Chen Ming seemed to effortlessly navigate the challenges of the greater heaven, while Brian struggled to find his footing. It was humbling for Brian to witness Chen Ming's natural aptitude and adaptability in the face of such immense pressure.'And they calle
Chen Ming now knew why he was so lucky and got many things that he wanted them to be. Even though there were some hardships, they were not too many."So I am his first creation, and he wanted me to inherit the position so he could go and woo his editor?"Chen Ming couldn't help but laugh at how silly the situation was. The promodial being, the greatest and strongest person in the whole omniverse, wanted to quit because he wanted to live his life as a mortal. Even he knew that it would fail, but wasn't it beautiful?Chen Ming admired the sacrifice and bravery of the promodial being to pursue his desires, even if it seemed illogical. It was a testament to the power of free will and the pursuit of happiness, even for someone as mighty as him."You must become stronger fast. My boss is going to retire soon and I need someone to take his place," said Brian.Chen Ming looked at him and couldn't help but speak."Why don't you just become one?""I have tried but failed miserably," replied Bri
Chen Ming knew that there were many evil gods and true demons who wanted to destroy his realm and his people while he was away for 500 years. But they couldn't do anything because of the formation that he had set up with his wives. And they had been upgrade through time.Chen Ming was very impressed with the strength and loyalty of his wives, who had become formidable protectors of their realm. He felt a sense of relief knowing that his people were safe in their hands."They are all pregnant. Who would have thought that they had successfully researched how to make Supreme Godess pregnant easier? They could even use it on the void goddess. Those were dedications, alright."Chen Ming marveled at the advancements his wives had achieved, not only in their protective abilities but also in their knowledge and research. He couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in their dedication and determination to ensure the safety and prosperity of their realm. The prospect of new lives brought a ren
He couldn't believe it; five hundred years had passed just like that.Chen Ming sighed and looked at the Dragon City.The city that used to be under Chang'er has now transformed into a magnificent and advanced city. Skyscrapers reached towards the heavens, and futuristic technology filled the streets.But even if it was so advanced, there were still many traits and old traditions left. The streets were still adorned with ancient temples and traditional Chinese architecture, blending harmoniously with the modern structures.Chen Ming's heart swelled with pride. All of this was the work of his wives. They had worked tirelessly to preserve the city's rich cultural heritage while embracing progress. Chen Ming knew that their dedication and passion had played a crucial role in transforming the city into a perfect blend of past and future, making it a source of inspiration for generations to come."Is it beautiful?"Morgan asked Chen Ming with a smile. She was one of the inventors, along w
Chen Ming was hestitated. He didn't want to kill him right now."Don't hestitate anymore, you bastard. Just kill me already. I can't be with them because they have now become singular. If you kill me, I will just become one with you."The outer god was actually him, but when he combined all the universe under him to become a singularity, he wasn't included."So, you are not dead, but just become one with me."The outer god nodded. This fight was just to decide who would be the dominant consciousness in their merged existence."Now finish what you have to. So I can no longer be alone."The outer god smiled. He must remember that his ultimate goal was not to destroy, but to find companionship and end his eternal solitude. Chen Ming saw that, and he could only sighed. He raised his hand, ready to deliver the final blow and fulfill his desire for unity."You will never be alone again."The outer god nodded and closed his eyes. Chen Ming then killed him with a swift and decisive strike, e
Chen Ming, who was hiding in the black hole, got many hints from the mysterious man.He knew right away that the mysterious man wanted to help him ascend to the void god realm."Thank you"Chen Ming said, He knew that the mysterious man must be watching him somewhere.He tried on the hint he got and began practicing the secret techniques to cultivate his divine energy. With each passing day, Chen Ming could feel his power growing stronger and his understanding of the void god realm deepening.<
Chen Ming gritted his teeth and moved on. His pain lessened.He went toward a location where he could sense that the core of the universe was there. The outer god felt the pain Chen Ming had injected into him through the living planet. As Chen Ming approached the location, he could feel that the outer god tried to protect the core of the universe with his power. He wasn't here, so his power couldn't stop Chen Ming. Chen Ming summoned all his strength and unleashed a powerful attack, shattering the outer god's defenses. With each step closer to the core, Chen Ming could sense the immense power emanating from it."Come here. When I finish the outer god, I will bring you back home."Chen Ming spoke to the will of the universe that was inside the core. He could sense the universe's will responding to his words, urging him to continue.The will of the universe didn't want to be used by the outer god anymore. It missed its home very much. Chen Ming could feel the universe's longing for
