"Cough, cough..."

"If you don't want to eat, then don't. No need to get angry."

Fang Qingyu opened his eyes begrudgingly.

He directly converted the remaining two strands of origin into skill points one by one.

A total of 10 points was used.

Similar to the last time when he killed the Nine Netherworld Lady alone.

So, how could Fang Qingyu not know it wouldn't work...

He just tried it for the sake of experimentation.

It was indeed still alive, damn it.

The diagram is like a medium, allowing oneself to approach the Candle Dragon during profession advancement, like a believer worshipping their faith.

Warm and considerate.

But also terrifying.

The Candle Dragon is truly an ancient god; its combat strength is uncertain but certainly in the top echelon of the first tier.

A comparison of the combat strengths of both will tell you.

Eternal Night Radiant Armor is just entry-level.

At full power, it can instantly kill the Nine Netherworld, which has not been awakened for long.

And the opponent is a god.

While he is merely a believer.

However...

The Candle Dragon is ultimately an alien god.

There still needs to be a chance in the future to turn this around.

It's not impossible for believers to change their faith.

Next is the time to reap the harvest.

Currently, there are a total of 16 skill points.

Upgrading Observation Method and Qi Blood Technique is now the big deal.

It requires 8 points each.

As for Thunder Strike Eight Slashes, it's needless to say.

It requires a full 16 points to upgrade.

If it were before, Fang Qingyu might have invested skill points in the two core skills.

But now, after a night of hunting.

Merit has soared.

Baji Fist and Hard Skills will soon be redeemable.

Some reserves should be set aside for these two cultivation techniques.

Ever since practicing martial arts, Fang Qingyu has had no weaknesses.

Now he has broken through as a martial artist.

Others with limited energy and resources can only specialize in one area.

But Fang Qingyu is different.

With the existence of the diagram and heavenly rewards for diligence.

He's naturally aiming to have it all!!

So, Thunder Instant Cloud Trace, upgrade!!!

2 skill points vanished instantly.

The sea of consciousness erupted with thousands of thunder lights.

Azure and purple arcs intertwined into a net, with clouds surging out of the void, forming a sky-covering gray-white vortex.

Fang Qingyu felt like he turned into a bolt of thunder traversing through.

Each maneuver triggered a thunderstorm roar, with electric light afterimages weaving intricate trajectories among the clouds.

Insight ended.

[Congratulations, your profession advancement skill "Thunder Instant Cloud Trace" has been upgraded to Lv.2 (0/400)]

Fang Qingyu did not stop.

He plunged in 4 more points.

This time the thunder and clouds in his mind were even more tumultuous.

The cloud turned into a hundred-zhang steep cliff abruptly.

Thunder coiled like a dragon, turning into fragmented arcs at the moment of hitting the rock, seeping along the wrinkles of the clouds into the mountain.

When thousands of thunder rays reformed on the other side.

Fang Qingyu slightly frowned.

This seems less like a martial technique, more like teaching him to learn an artistic conception.

Previously, Thunder Strike Eight Slashes also gave him a similar feeling.

But doubt lasted only a brief moment.

He was swiftly swept away by the insights in his mind.

[Congratulations, your profession advancement skill "Thunder Instant Cloud Trace" has been upgraded to Lv.3 (0/800)]

But tonight is not over yet.

Previously, Fang Qingyu temporarily set aside Blood Burst, but after using it again tonight, he realized the truth.

This skill.

Cannot be discarded.

It is now at Great Success, just 2 skill points away from the Transformation Realm.

Might as well invest two more points.

[Congratulations, your profession advancement skill "Blood Burst" has been upgraded to Lv.4 (0/400)]

It's quite cost-effective.

The reason Fang Qingyu was never keen on improving Blood Burst was mainly because the increase upon leveling up was somewhat minor.

Initially, when activated,

the effect of Blood Burst was to bring physical attributes to their peak, increasing all attributes by 5% and lasting 10 seconds.

Now it has been upgraded to the Transformation Realm.

It merely increased from 5% to 7%, still only making one a "real man" for 10 seconds.

But after tonight.

Fang Qingyu found out...

Even a 1% increase becomes more terrifying as one becomes stronger!!

For instance, if one has only 100 jin of power, the increase is just 1 jin, but if it's 100 tons, it equates to a whole ton...

So, this skill will only get stronger and stronger.

With this, the skill point allocation is complete.

With 8 skill points remaining, Fang Qingyu plans to save them for Hard Skills and Baji Fist.

After freshening up,

Fang Qingyu didn't get a wink of sleep all night.

By 6 a.m. the next day, he was up early.

Since practicing martial arts.

Even sleeping three to four hours a day keeps him energetic.

Fang Qingyu didn't wear his combat suit today.

Instead, he donned a set of training clothes, placing a casual outfit in his backpack.

Then he grabbed a quick meal.

And headed straight for the 88th floor.

"Hello, I'd like to exchange for Celestial Drum Thunder Sound Body."

This time, with no guide, Fang Qingyu directly approached the receptionist.

Last night, he killed 14 Alien God believers and one God Descendant Body in Micro Realm.

A total of 640 merit points were earned.

The God Descendant Body was somewhat valuable; a single Five-pass God was worth 500 merit points.

As for the last two.

Fang Qingyu only knew from the diagram that he delivered the final blow.

However, the merit points for the two.

Were divided among the supporting brothers from Dragon Spine Camp.

This was reasonable and fair.

Nothing much to say.

Thus, with a total of 883 merit points, and after deducting 800 points.

Only 83 points remained.

Holding the Celestial Drum Thunder Sound Body, he returned to the training ground.

It was still early.

Yet, there were still a lot of people practicing martial arts.

This atmosphere quickly got Fang Qingyu into the zone, and he read the entire book.

As soon as he finished...

Fang Qingyu realized he had miscalculated.

He didn't expect training Hard Skills to be so entangled.

Celestial Drum Thunder Sound Body is divided into 5 stages.

And the very first stage, Skin Membrane Initial Resonance, requires 4 supplementary training materials.

First, there's the decade-old Thunderstruck Wood, ground into powder, mixed with medicinal oil, and applied all over the body. Red Copper Powder, added in small amounts to the medicinal bath, stimulates the skin to absorb the power of the vibrations.

Bittersweet Root and Ox Knee Grass are used to brew a medicinal soup for internal consumption, strengthening the foundation and nurturing the origin.

Fortunately, these materials are not a big deal for Fang Qingyu now.

Only the decade-old Thunderstruck Wood is a bit expensive.

It requires over a hundred thousand.

Orders were quickly placed through the Divine Management Bureau's app.

Looking at the time, it will be delivered in about two days.

Then Fang Qingyu got up and started warming up.

Since he was already here.

Even though Hard Skills couldn't be practiced, there were other things to train.

He picked up the standard long knife.

He began striving for the perfection of the Thunder Strike Eight Slashes.

Until noon at 12.

Only then did Fang Qingyu stop.

He took a shower, changed into casual clothes, and headed straight to Team 3 on the 28th floor.

"Qingzi, are you going too?"

Duan Ling was leading a group of people outside and paused when he saw Fang Qingyu's hurried figure.

"Yes."

Fang Qingyu nodded and followed quietly behind.

The commendation for the two teammates who sacrificed themselves last night hadn't started yet within the bureau.

But as teammates of the same squad.

They would first visit the families of the two, leaving them with enough funds for a prosperous future.

Fang Qingyu heard this yesterday.

So he came along today.

Soon...

Fang Qingyu, after many years, felt the emotion of parting from life and death once again.

It was somewhat suffocating.

Especially as both were his colleagues.

It's uncertain if he would face the same fate one day.

However, he was an orphan here.

So, there wasn't much to worry about.

Others had long been used to parting from life and death.

According to Duan Ling herself...

Since becoming an official member, she had seen off 69 teammates.

Most had died at the hands of the Life Ghosts.

Fewer had died at the hands of Alien God believers, which is why this was so regrettable.

When a person dies, their light goes out.

The living must continue to live on.

After visiting the families of the fallen teammates.

Fang Qingyu and others returned to the Divine Management Bureau, then went to the rooftop hospital to check on Captain Lin and Li Hu.

Both were recovering well.

But couldn't wake up yet.

So, they could only view them through the glass window.

Leaving the Divine Management Bureau.

Looking at the long-lost sun.

Fang Qingyu felt a bit sentimental; now he didn't have to worry about the threat from the Pantheon anymore.

Not just in Qingjian City, the headquarters of the Pantheon were completely wiped out.

Even due to directives from the central bureau.

Surrounding cities each conducted operations against the Pantheon.

Next...

He could refocus on the path to becoming stronger.

Without living in constant fear.

In the evening.

At six in the afternoon, Fang Qingyu finished his dinner early.

He came to the team.

With special approval from Director Wu Yu.

Now he didn't need to follow Qu Zhe anymore.

He could lead a team on his own.

After entering Fang Qingyu's permissions into the computer, Duan Ling extended her hand toward him.

"Congratulations!"

"From now on, you have independent law enforcement authority. I hope your Martial Arts prospers!"

"Thank you, Sister Duan."

Fang Qingyu shook hands with her.

"You currently have three reserve spots open; have you decided who to recruit? There needs to be one Executioner of Fate Ghosts among them."

"Not yet, but I'm studying it myself."

Fang Qingyu shook the information on the Life Ghost in his hand and said.

"You're interested in that?"

Duan Ling seemed a bit surprised.

Generally, geniuses are only interested in growing stronger.

Many people disdain dismembering as dirty and arduous work, unwilling to do it themselves, so they specifically find a reserve person to help.

Fang Qingyu honestly nodded: "I find it pretty good, knowing the life structure of various Life Ghosts is also helpful for defeating them."

"I see..."

"Then I can arrange for you to learn, are you interested?"

Duan Ling, after hearing this, pondered for a moment and then looked at Fang Qingyu probing.

"I'm interested!"

Fang Qingyu's eyes lit up.

...

Divine Management Bureau, 9 floors underground.

As the elevator doors opened, the strong smell of rust penetrated the nostrils.

Fang Qingyu instinctively held his breath but was still choked by the mixture of formalin and decaying flesh, tightening his throat.

"If there's a place with the most Life Ghost corpses, no place compares to the Divine Management Bureau's branches in each city!~"

Duan Ling seemed used to the smell.

She led the way inside.

Fang Qingyu followed behind, observing the surroundings and conveyor belts.

Above were all sorts of preserved Life Ghost corpses, a dazzling sight.

Unfortunately, they're dead...

If they were alive, striking them one by one would be a huge gain.

However, as Duan Ling said, if you want to learn how to dismember Life Ghosts.

This truly is the best place.

"Come, let me introduce you, this is my good friend, Zou Lingzhu, the head of our bureau's Life Ghost corpse recovery department."

They entered a room.

Duan Ling pulled over a busy figure ahead, introducing her to Fang Qingyu.

"Hello, I'm Fang Qingyu."

Fang Qingyu smiled and extended his hand.

Duan Ling quickly clarified the purpose of their visit.

"Sure, if you want to learn, just stay. Come whenever you're free."

Zou Lingzhu agreed readily.

She didn't mind the request at all.

"Then I'll be going, study well."

Duan Ling gave Fang Qingyu a look and quickly left the room.

"In the beginning, you only need to do one thing."

"Watch."

"Just watch and don't ask questions, remember as much as you can."

When everyone left, Zou Lingzhu tossed over a mask, leaving a sentence before she busily resumed her work.

Fang Qingyu responded affirmatively.

He put on the mask and stood aside to learn.

Must admit...

Zou Lingzhu's technique was much better than Yun Jiaojiao's.

The fluidity of her knife strokes quickly drew Fang Qingyu in.

The experience of the Executioner of Fate Ghosts began to increase rapidly...
