The world begins with refining skills

Chapter 545 A Fate Derailed! (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

A sudden change occurred!

Just like when Mu Sheng used the Holy Light Cage to imprison that blood-red fleshy creature covered with eyeballs and arms.

Suddenly, a door appeared in the void, a gate to the underworld made entirely of white bones, burning with dark flames!

In an instant, a large number of bizarre and grotesque creatures from the underworld poured out of the door, flooding out like a tidal wave.

There were dwarfs with goat heads, snakes whose entire bodies were mouths, featherless birds with their internal organs hanging from their lower abdomens, and brain-like creatures with legs...

These strangely shaped and incredibly powerful creatures of the underworld scattered and crashed about like a frightened herd of beasts.

"Ok?"

Above the Holy Light Cage, Mu Sheng, who was suspended in the air, frowned upon seeing this scene.

Although we don't know what the enemy's purpose is, stopping them is the right thing to do!

"For the glory of the Northern God!"

"Thunder Lord, help me!"

Mu Sheng chanted a spell while raising his left arm high.

"Crack! Boom!"

A bolt of lightning, flashing with blue and white light, suddenly appeared in his hand.

"Stab~"

"Zizzizi~"

The lightning bolts rubbed against the air, producing a piercing, sharp sound, like a thousand birds chirping!

"Thor's Descent!!!"

The lightning bolt in his hand crashed down, exploding instantly and transforming into terrifying lightning snakes that roamed throughout the building.

The dim reception hall was engulfed by lightning, and one after another, ugly and bizarre creatures from the underworld were annihilated by the lightning!
Even the three men hiding in the corner—Klein, Leonard, and Dunn—had their hair stand on end.

Mu Sheng had deliberately avoided that area; otherwise, the three of them would have been turned into charred remains.

"Woooooo~"

"Coo coo~ Wah~ Wah~"

"..."

Under the terrifying lightning punishment, even these undead creatures living in the underworld couldn't help but let out mournful cries.

The underworld creatures on site instantly turned into ashes that filled the sky, and these ashes emitted a dim glow.

This is the dust of the dead, formed after the death of creatures from the underworld—a precious and extraordinary material.

However, the next second,
The entire hall was then filled once again with undead creatures continuously pouring out from the Gates of the Underworld.

The lightning continuously annihilated undead creatures, while more poured out of the gates of the underworld.

With this decrease and increase, the number of undead creatures actually grew as they were killed, and they even poured out of the reception hall and occupied the entire Blackthorn Security Company.

Mu Sheng instantly realized that this couldn't go on!
Although he possessed a vast amount of spirituality, compared to the entire underworld, he was but a candle flame compared to the stars.

"At the Sequence 5 level, the extraordinary individual's energy level may not be high, but the corresponding sequence ability should not be underestimated..."

Looking at the door engulfed in black flames, Mu Sheng abandoned his previous contempt.

A 'gatekeeper' who can summon the gates of the underworld, a 'traveler' who can travel through the spirit world, a 'shepherd' who tends to souls...

As the Sequence 5 closest to a demigod, if allowed to unleash its full extraordinary power, it could already cause Mu Sheng some trouble.

Of course, it's just a bit of trouble!

As it stands now, Mu Sheng truly has no way to destroy an entire realm of undead creatures.

But destroying this gate to the underworld, or summoning it, is quite simple for Ince Zangwill!
"Gathering Qi into Soldiers - Thunder - Holy Light..."

With lightning in his left hand and holy light in his right, Mu Sheng gradually fused two spiritual energies that restrain undead creatures into a spear of destruction!
Just before this destructive spear was completed.

A roar filled with madness and delirium rose from beneath his feet.

"what!!!"

"Sizzle~ Plop~ Plop~"

Within the cage of holy light, Ince Zangwill's skin suddenly cracked like a dried-up riverbed.

Blood and pus oozed from the cracks, the viscous mixture of yellow and red was enough to make anyone feel uneasy.

"puff!"

An arm covered in brown hair suddenly grew out of his chest.

"Puff puff!"

Then, more and more arms emerged from his body.

Soon, the former archbishop of the Church of the Night transformed into a monster covered in arms.

"what?"

Mu Sheng's face showed a hint of surprise: "Your appearance... how come it looks so much like this thing?"

Looking at Ince Zangwell and then at the blood-red monster he had imprisoned, Mu Sheng suddenly realized what was going on.

"Oh, I see, it's your mother!"

"That makes sense now. No wonder this thing suddenly came out of the spirit world to save you. This explanation makes sense!"

Mu Sheng nodded repeatedly, pleased that a question had been answered.

The 0-08 quill pen, which was writing rapidly in the notebook, suddenly veered off course and left a long ink mark on the page with a "plop".

'0-08' Sealed Artifact: The Pen of Alshogod, which has the ability to bring stories to life, but requires the stories to be logical.

'0-08' has written many stories, but this is the first time it has heard Musheng's logic.

but!

From a certain perspective, isn't this perhaps a logical explanation?

[As expected of an unknown and great being, Alshogod's Pen has learned a lot...]

"Shhhhh!"

The quill pen began to write rapidly again.

Because of their physical resemblance, the unknown spirit beings regarded Ince Zangwell as their offspring... The backlash from the forced fusion was reduced...

Ince Zangwell successfully absorbed part of the body of an unknown spirit creature and escaped... (crossed out...)

[Unknown...Unknown...]

[Escape failed... Ince Zangwell chose...]

[Unknown...smear...cross out...]

The notebook contained large sections of discarded story manuscripts and ink stains that filled large blank spaces.

The 0-08 quill pen kept writing, revising, erasing, and rewriting on the notebook, trying to write out a possibility of successfully escaping.

"...The Spear of Destruction!"

Jokes aside, we still need to take the battle seriously.

Mu Sheng raised his arm again, and a spear of destruction, crackling with lightning and holy light, appeared in his hand.

Then he swung his arm and made a throwing motion.

The Destruction Spear, radiating powerful energy fluctuations, traversed space in an instant and arrived before Ince Zangwell.

"boom!!!"

"Boom!!!"

The towering explosion instantly engulfed the entire Blackthorn Security Company, and the shockwave centered on the reception hall swept through the entire building in an instant.

"Fuck!"

Of the three night watchmen in the corner, Klein, the only one still conscious, was immediately terrified.

The oncoming shockwave was like a moving wall of iron, crushing directly towards the three of them. The shockwave was too fast; he had no time to react!
Just when Klein thought he would be seriously injured if he didn't die, the shockwave carrying dust passed straight through them.

"Huh? You're alright?"

Klein looked on in surprise.

The three night watchmen were unharmed, but the wooden decorations and furniture in the room didn't even last a second before turning to ashes.

Countless fine and deep cracks appeared on the walls, which were a mixture of bricks and cement, and the house collapsed with a creak.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Beams, bricks, and cement blocks kept falling, and the entire Blackthorn Security Company was reduced to ruins in an instant.

From the perspective of pedestrians on the nearby streets.

With a loud rumble, a building suddenly collapsed, sending up a cloud of dust several meters high.

The sudden turn of events immediately caused a disturbance in the surrounding area.

"Cough...cough..."

"Bah!"

With the help of that mysterious force, Klein dragged Leonard and Captain Dunn through the ruins.

Klein stared in shock at the Blackthorn Security Company ruins before him.

Although Blackthorn Security Company had a small staff, it occupied an area of ​​several hundred square meters, yet it was reduced to ruins in a single blow.

What Klein didn't know was that the explosion had occurred more in the spirit world, outside of reality; otherwise, it wouldn't have been just the collapse of a single building.

The area around these several streets will become a dead zone!
This is the self-destruction of a demigod-level spirit realm creature!
That's right, the explosion just now wasn't caused by the Gun of Destruction, but by the self-destruction of that blood-red fleshy creature.

"Did you run away?"

Inside the ruins, Mu Sheng 'walked' among a pile of cement bricks and stones, looking at a mass of flesh crushed underneath, and murmured softly.

This mass of minced meat was none other than a mixture of Ince Zangwell and that bloody chunk of flesh.

Just over ten seconds earlier, before the devastating shot hit its target, Ince Zangwell suddenly self-destructed.

To be precise, he controlled the forcibly fused blood-red flesh chunks to self-destruct!

The explosion unleashed a terrifying spatial turbulence in the spirit world, not only annihilating a large number of undead creatures but also destroying the gates to the underworld.

During the explosion, the '0-08' quill pen also fell into a spatial rift and disappeared.

"Ha~"

Mu Sheng chuckled, "You really managed to get away. No wonder it's a magical item with the Sequence 1 'Writer' trait!"

He didn't care much about the '0-08' escape.

He doesn't need such high-sequence characteristics right now, so it would be great if he could get his hands on it, but it wouldn't matter if he lost it.

Just like the 'old man' inside the unconscious 'Midnight Poet', a demigod angel who has lost most of his power.

In other words, he doesn't need it now, otherwise he would have found out the other party and stolen their extraordinary characteristics!

"The Punisher and the Mechanical Heart's reinforcements are arriving soon, I should go..."

He reached out and grabbed at the pile of flesh under the rubble, and a Sequence 5 'Gatekeeper' trait appeared in Mu Sheng's hand.

[Sequence 5: Blank (3/3)]

The potion ingredients have been gathered, and now he only needs the 'blacksmith' to complete the tempering of his body before he can immediately advance to Sequence 5.

"There's another piece of loot..."

After 'stripping' Ince Zangwell of his extraordinary characteristics, Mu Sheng did not leave immediately, but instead looked at Klein and the other two outside the ruins.

The next instant, he appeared beside Klein.

"force……"

Upon seeing Mu Sheng suddenly appear, Klein was about to call out his code name, but then swallowed it back.

Mu Sheng smiled slightly, patted his shoulder and said, "I'll take this. Consider it payment for killing Ince Zangwill and saving your lives!"

"Remember to say hello to the goddess for me!"

Before he finished speaking, Mu Sheng's figure became blurry and then disappeared.

"Something? What?"

Klein quickly looked around and discovered that the box containing Saint Selena's ashes was missing.

That's a seal of the Sequence 4 'Night Watcher' trait!
What are the characteristics of sequence 4?

Klein suddenly realized something.

'Are Mr. A from the Aurora Society, and that Hurricane General from a few days ago, Mr. Power, collecting extraordinary abilities?'

'The hurricane is Sequence 6, Mr. A is Sequence 5, Saint Selena's ashes are Sequence 4...'

'Will they then have to collect the extraordinary properties of Sequence 3, Sequence 2, Sequence 1, and even Sequence 0?'

"No...can't?"

Klein's lips twitched, somewhat unable to believe his own guess.

Sequence 0 corresponds to the true god, so Mr. Power can't possibly kill a god, can he?

'etc! '

'What does Mr. Power mean by asking me to give his greetings to the Goddess of Night?'

'Could his target be the Goddess of Night?'

Klein suddenly shuddered and dared not think any further.

We can't afford to mess with them! We can't afford to mess with them!
He was just a lazy, food-loving ordinary person who wanted to enjoy a peaceful life.

He'd better stay away from these things.

He didn't plan to bring the greeting to the goddess of the night. Besides, what right did an ordinary low-level night watchman have to talk to the goddess?
"I think I'll just go back to my ordinary life."

"This achievement should be enough for me to exchange for a Sequence 7 recipe and potion, and my salary should also increase a bit..."

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Klein's face.

Unlike in the original story, Black Ince Zangwell, the mastermind behind the scenes, was also killed by Mu Sheng.

Klein's fate was completely changed. Although he still longed for power, it was not as urgent as in the original story.

He ascended to godhood in just two short years; his cheat code was a bit too much.

Mu Sheng: Who? Who's chirping me from behind?

Just as Klein was fantasizing about the wonderful life that awaited him, a faint rustling sound of someone shifting their position caught his attention.

"Leonard? You're awake..."

Accompanied by Klein's surprised voice, the support of 'The Punisher' and 'The Mechanical Heart' finally arrived.

Before the dusty ruins, the wheel of fate veered off course...

...

...

In the endless, deepest part of the starry sky, in the darkest depths.

A woman in a classic black dress is dozing off, her head resting on the moon.

The girl was enveloped in starlight, like the night sky, and her face was veiled by layers of thin gauze, making her look hazy yet exceptionally beautiful.

Her body was ethereal, like light and shadow, as if it would shatter at the slightest touch, like the darkness at dawn.

Suddenly, darkness surged around the woman, her eyelids trembled, and a pair of eyes as black as night slowly opened...

"An unforeseen... anomaly?"

The woman's eyebrows curved slightly, revealing a smile that seemed otherworldly.
