Chapter 274 260: I want to be as resilient as Master
"...."
The scene fell into complete silence, countless mages and warriors were stunned in place.
In this world, over the past thirty years since the appearance of the Tower of the Gods, countless people have commented and discussed what is the strongest soul attribute qualification for humans.
Some say it is the Mad War God, the powerful soul gathering human battle fury and emotions, the strongest warrior power that grows braver with every battle.
Some say it is the Goddess of Desire, one of mankind's greatest desires, the easiest and quickest strength to gain.
Others say the strongest is the Goddess of Knowledge because their souls burn with a pure thirst for truth-seeking, the most sincere scholars growing stronger with steadfast dedication.
But, thirteen years ago, a man named Bill Hughes vehemently disproved them.
He showed them what true strength is!
Bill Hughes, a man with a 76% affinity for commerce, cultivated his soul potential in this area to form his own attribute, creating an unprecedented commercial empire, a vast capital realm across all industries, employing countless strong individuals, mad war god followers, dark goddess followers...
Various factions served him, establishing the Merchant Mercenary Association and generating substantial income. In ten short years, he amassed wealth rivaling nations, becoming the shadow king under the entire royal authority.
Ultimately, this legendary man proved himself on this land through commerce, realizing his true self, affirming the "Commerce Dao," igniting the Divine Fire, thoroughly cultivating his soul into a divine spirit, and residing within the Tower of the Gods.
Even ten years later, numerous merchants deeply revere this God of Commerce Bill Hughes, traveling worldwide to the Merchant Associations for certification and conducting trade everywhere.
"One of the most powerful forces, commerce...and its purity is even more astonishing than that of legends!"
"In the future, he might ignite the Divine Fire, even slay gods, kill the current God of Commerce Bill Hughes with a mortal's body, and become one of the great gods in the heavens!"
Everyone kept exclaiming, feeling like witnessing the birth of history!!
"Recruit!"
"We must recruit!"
A strong urge surged in countless hearts.
One person's success elevates all around him anew; if one invests in the future, they might ascend into the eternal Divine Kingdom as well.
"How is that possible? That small noble named Yu Mi'er, how come his one son and two daughters all possess such extraordinary qualifications? How was this achieved?"
"Why is he so gifted in procreation? Is there some special reason why the children born all have such high soul attributes?"
...
The entire Magic Church erupted into chaos.
Qingxia's expression subtly changed.
Master, being a Ghost Witch Doctor, how could he possess such qualifications?
Although this qualification is extremely extraordinary, the soul of commerce doesn't seem to share the same undesirable attribute as her own, yet somewhat mismatch in compatibility.
But upon careful thought...
Wasn't she just the same?
Her outward appearance and inner nature don't match.
Reflecting upon Ghost Witch Doctor's life, bright and upright, preaching truth to all living beings multiple times, selflessly passing down the Divine Sect's Seven Cultivation Skills, when did he ever partake in capitalist behavior??
Perhaps the Master, like herself, hasn't faced his true desires, suppressing them.
He doesn't want to engage in commerce filled with stench of money, or exploit others...Instead, strives to become one reliant on personal effort, pursuing truth, continuously pioneering the era, a pure Seeker of the Divine Sect's Seven Cultivation Skills!
Upon such contemplation...
It makes sense.
Master seeks truth and doesn't wish to succumb to commercial corruption.
She sighed, admiring Master more for suppressing his innermost desires upon learning his secret.
Occasionally, Master would express similar thoughts, such as mentioning stocks before...merely suppressing it, no doubt.
After all, she herself often inadvertently entertains some strange desires, unable to resist pondering such matters, understanding the difficulty of suppression, surely Master feels the same.
Thus, though she exposed certain evil thoughts, she must persevere like Master, aiming for the strength of truth-seeking and cultivating the power of desires without succumbing to them!
"Master, they've discovered our uniqueness in this place, what should we do?"
Qingxia's face gradually calmed down, regaining a cool, rational demeanor, not forgetting they were invaders from another world.
"Isn't this a simple matter? They're merely mortals, naturally erase their memory." Zhu Zhengwei looked indifferently at hundreds gathered in the square.
"But..." Qingxia hesitated.
"Don't worry, in this Spirit Realm, their research on souls is far superior to ours. Here, soul operations that erase memories are very normal." Zhu Zhengwei replied calmly, "On this land, tens of thousands of mortals are erased from memories daily....it's their regular operation."
"Some strong individuals have even developed the habit of erasing mortal memories wherever they pass....we can easily act without suspicion."
Tens of thousands erased daily?
Qingxia wanted to retort on how this figure was determined.
But she dared not ask.
Feeling awkward, not knowing how to face the two after recent events, she immediately began erasing the memories in the square, modifying them.
Naturally, taking the opportunity to hide her black history.
Quickly, the three people's qualifications experienced significant downgrades, becoming mediocre, low-purity followers of the Mad War God and the God of Commerce.
And herself?
Directly modified her compatibility.
He started altering the population records of the old mage.
"15% qualification of the Knowledge Goddess...5% Mad War God, 9% God of Commerce, 7% Fire God...."
In short, a mix of various attributes, transforming herself into a super "Mixed Spirit Root," conspicuously excluding the God of Desire, indicating her soul is exceptionally pure, without desires, pure and cool in appearance.
The Minotaur Empress kindly reminded, "Sigh, with these changes, the highest is 15% qualification of the Knowledge Goddess, such a qualification is low, do you wish to worship the Goddess of Knowledge?"
"Yes, it's hidden anyway." She replied.
The Minotaur Empress scratched her head again, "But altering like this wastes the powerful soul system of this world....in this world, cultivating True Spirit targets the essence of the soul directly! Complementary with our Ancestral Witch system's flesh."
"The doctor said to face true self."
The Minotaur Empress unconsciously added further.
Qingxia hesitated, seeking encouragement, tentatively asked Zhu Zhengwei, "Master, what do you plan to do?"
"Cough cough." Zhu Zhengwei coughed twice, speaking seriously, "I absolutely aim to face my true self, cultivate my true self, adhere to soul's original attributes, engage in commerce in this world, cultivate characteristics....but I will never succumb to commerce, will never become a scheming capitalist....I merely use this opportunity to cultivate this soul attribute's strength without sinking into it."
"Additionally, through cultivation, better harness this soul attribute's power, maintaining clarity, never blinded by the flow of capital."
Qingxia was greatly inspired at once!
Strength is awakening, neither good nor bad.
Cultivating the strength of one's true soul without indulging, neglecting life?
Master cultivates commerce attributes yet doesn't succumb to them.
She should do the same.
Master used his life experience and words to imply this to her.
Keep going!
Qingxia needs to be as resilient as Master!
Her face slightly reddened, yet transformed into determined, speaking, "I definitely won't waste this strength, since Master wishes to cultivate, I shall too, cultivating this strength, restraining complete indulgence....in private, I will also cultivate the soul skill of desire, perhaps one day even slay the Goddess of Desire, taking her place!"
"Who will you cultivate with?"
Zhu Zhengwei interjected.
Qingxia's expression changed, turning cold, "Minotaur sister, tonight we sisters continue swapping clothes."
Zhu Zhengwei glanced at her determined expression, scratching his head, perplexed by her sudden determination, unclear of her thoughts' convolutions, fantasies....yet wisely refrained from asking further.
