The End of Dharma 40K: My Evil God Wife Feeds Me to Prove My Emperorship

Fengzhou Station was sparsely populated.

After checking their tickets, Li Mingyu and Shen Xiuzhen stood on the platform, waiting for their train.

The sound of sirens rang out one after another.

In the air, warm steam clings to the skin.

Around them, some vendors were already calling out their wares.

Yin County is very close to Fengzhou. Li Mingyu and Shen Xiuzhen spent a little money and took a bus to Fengzhou Station. It didn't take them long.

This time, Li Mingyu used two genuine ID cards to buy train tickets for himself and his aunt to travel to Hanzhou in the northeast, in order to mislead them.

He then used two fake documents to buy train tickets for himself and his aunt to go to Gudu in the west, which was their real destination.

The Azure Profound Dynasty is located on the Central Continent, whose layout is as follows:

Nine provinces, two capitals, and thirty states.

The Nine Lands refer to the nine major regions, the Two Capitals refer to the two major capital cities, and the Thirty Provinces refer to the thirty provincial cities distributed across the Nine Lands.

Gudu was originally named Guzhou. After the fall of the Qingxiao Immortal Dynasty and the establishment of the Qingxuan Heavenly Dynasty, Guzhou was transformed from a prefecture into a capital, becoming the second capital city after the imperial capital.

The reason for going to Gudu is that Gudu is a mega-city on the coast of the imperial capital region. It is close to the capital and has a sea outlet to the south. Various industries are extremely prosperous, especially the machinery industry.

Li Mingyu knew that his current advantage lay in his mechanical experience and bronze-making skills.

Needless to say, he worked as a mechanical apprentice at the factory for a period of time.

As for bronze-making skills, they came from the blood-ink notes and scarlet copper pen in his hands, as well as the existing knowledge and learning talent of the inner demon king Chen.

I don't have much money, so I need to find a job as soon as possible to settle down and ensure that my spiritual level doesn't drop.

Most importantly, as a megacity, Gudu will, to some extent, increase the difficulty for Fengzhou Xiandian to handle cases across regions, and will also increase the cost of Wang Hao's relationship building.

"The more breathing room the better; the higher the operating costs, the better, to deter Wang Hao outright."

Since it was morning and the first train hadn't arrived yet, the surroundings were quite quiet.

Several small groups of passengers had already gathered at the edge of the platform, standing in front of the different colored floor markings. Occasionally, adults and children would make noise, and the train attendants would begin to maintain order.

Li Mingyu went to buy some simple food, bringing his aunt her favorite chive dumplings and soy milk.

Having stayed up all night, everything seems somewhat ethereal and unreal; only after filling my stomach will I regain some sense of reality.

Feeling the warmth of the hot food in her hands, Shen Xiuzhen couldn't help but sigh, "This is the first time I've taken a car so early."

Li Mingyu nodded and chatted briefly with his aunt about the taste of the food at the train station.

Before long, the first bronze train of the morning came towards us, heading to Gudu.

The train is made of copper alloy, with large windows. Apart from some antique-style carvings, the rest of the body conforms to fluid engineering aesthetics, is simple and elegant, and has a very modern feel.

It was much more impressive than the small, short-distance trains that Li Mingyu had seen in Yin County.

Wei Kun appeared to the side, repeatedly exclaiming, "This is the first time I've ever seen a bronze train."

Upon hearing the word "bronze," Wang Chen became interested and began to give Wei Kun a lengthy explanation of the relationship between the carbon-plated engine and copper alloy materials, including some new understandings of copper rust...

The train slowly came to a stop, and the doors opened.

Li Mingyu and Shen Xiuzhen got into the car together.

……

"Clang, clang."

The bronze train sped across the vast plains.

In the third-class carriage, Li Mingyu and his aunt sat next to each other by the window.

The two chatted idly, passing the time.

Aunt asked in a low voice:

"Xiaoyu, where did you get these silver notes?"

Li Mingyu thought for a moment and said:

"Wang Chen always carried it with him; I only retrieved it later."

Li Mingyu didn't mention that the silver notes were taken from Wang Chen's house, not because he didn't want to tell Shen Xiuzhen, but because he was afraid of causing her unnecessary worry.

Shen Xiuzhen nodded:

"How much money can we get in total? Is there anything we should be careful about?"

Li Mingyu pondered for a moment and then said:

"There's nothing to worry about. We'll go to Gudu and just find any money exchange to withdraw the money. There shouldn't be any problems."

The aunt noticed the bulge in Li Mingyu's arms again, reached out and opened the bag in her hand, saying:

"Xiaoyu, you don't need to carry so many things on you, it's tiring. Auntie has a bag here that you can use to carry them."

Li Mingyu shielded himself with his hand and laughed:

"No need, no need. This belongs to Wang Chen and is quite valuable. It needs to be kept close to his body. Auntie, you don't need to worry about it. Just keep the banknotes safe."

Shen Xiuzhen then showed an expression of understanding, and tightly covered the bag in her hand again, inside which were several silver notes worth nearly 20,000 coins.

Li Mingyu touched the items in his arms; they were the scarlet copper pen and the blood-ink notebook.

"Of these two items, one is a destiny artifact, and the other has a mysterious origin. Even Wang Chen can't explain why. It can't be said that it appeared out of thin air; the only explanation is that it was bestowed by Heaven or a gift from the Heavenly Dao."

"What if... just carrying it around has negative effects..."

"It's best not to let Auntie touch it."

He wouldn't let Shen Xiuzhen touch him, nor would he let her know; he would bear the risk himself.

He was fine when he first got on the bus in the morning, but now that it was almost noon, Li Mingyu started to feel sleepy.

The flight attendants moved back and forth in the corridor, and the noise of the surrounding passengers rose and fell, creating a kind of white noise that was hypnotic and relaxing.

Li Mingyu was exhausted. He turned to look out the window, where vast fields of spirit fields filled his field of vision and sped past.

He wanted to take a short nap, even just a short doze.

But he dared not close his eyes for a long time.

He always felt inexplicably uneasy, and once the thought arose, his mind gradually became flustered.

When can one relax amidst the annoying noise around them?

This is not normal.

Shen Xiuzhen said softly, "Xiaoyu, rest for a while. I'll call you when we get off the bus."

"Okay. I'll rest for a bit."

Although Li Mingyu said this, he wasn't relaxed at all. He transmitted his instructions:

"Old Wei, Wang Chen, you two keep an eye on things for me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Kun and Wang Chen emerged from his body and appeared in the train corridor. They looked at each other for a moment, then started bickering casually.

With a thought, Li Mingyu's consciousness sank into the Immortal Scripture Space, arriving at the central high platform, surrounded by thirteen Dharma gates.

The space outside the elevated platform is bathed in a gray-white hue.

At the central altar on the high platform, layers upon layers of illusions emerged like ink paintings.

Li Mingyu stared intently.

The ink-wash illusion remains unchanged, still featuring constellations, the Eight Trigrams, and the Nine Palaces.

However... this altar seems to be somewhat different from the original one.

It seems to have added a few more layers of structure, making it more complete.

Could it be... that as the method is unlocked, this altar will gradually be perfected?

Once everything is perfected, will I be able to see my wife?

Li Mingyu then looked at the three unlocked magic gates around him:

[Severing Life], [Possessing Body], [Bright Eyes]

The three gates appeared as illusory images, with ripples flowing around them. The patterns of these ripples resembled ancient cloud seal script or remnants of the Big Dipper, while the edges of the gate shadows were adorned with "cloud patterns," "thunder patterns," and "water patterns"...

Currently, the effects of [Severing Life] and [Possession] are clear.

【Severing Fate】Severing destiny, cutting off the reincarnation of those who bear destiny between heaven and earth. The side effect is the growth of inner demons, but inner demons can also become one's own help.

Possession can deepen one's cultivation and elevate one's realm, but the side effect is loss of physical control, requiring careful handling of inner demons and emotions.

For every person destined for greatness that is slain, a new inner demon is created.

For each additional inner demon that appears, the realm that can be elevated by [Possession] will also increase.

Currently, including Wei Kun and Wang Chen, it's enough to temporarily raise my cultivation level by two levels, from the second level of the Awakening Realm to the fourth level.

As for "Bright Eyes," it's like a kind of pupil technique, but it's not just a pupil technique, because in addition to vision, the senses of smell and hearing are also affected.

This effect is not just about "seeing" through things, but more like comprehensively enhancing our perception of the outside world.

Li Mingyu recalled the world he had seen, which was full of worms and slime, and even the buildings and the ground were made of huge worm torsos.

Clearly, there's still room for exploration regarding [Bright Eyes].

However, he shook his head, having no clue what to do or how to explain it. He could only find a suitable opportunity to study it properly later.

But he was still happy.

Of the thirteen methods, three have now been unlocked.

Does this mean the day I see my wife is getting closer?

Li Mingyu always felt that the method was related to returning to Earth. After all, this immortal scripture space was left to him by his wife, and if he could unlock all the methods, he would definitely be able to see his wife again.

The longing is irresistible.

We need to speed things up to unlock the method.

Slay the will of Heaven.

So, how do we find the person destined for us?

Li Mingyu pondered for a while and felt that since the [Bright Eyes] could see through some so-called illusions, perhaps he could use the [Bright Eyes] to observe and see what the difference was between those who were blessed by fate and ordinary people.

This is indeed a suitable direction for research.

However, we also need to consider Wei Kun's tolerance level. If it really doesn't work, we can let him turn it on and off instantly.

Furthermore...

Those who are blessed with destiny are all outstanding individuals in their respective circles. Even if they are found, I am currently weak and powerless. How can I easily succeed?

We still need to take a long-term view.

Right now, the top priority is settling down after entering the capital city.

I need to find a decent-paying job, replenish my spiritual resources, and make sure my spiritual level doesn't drop. Staying alive is the top priority.

Fortunately, they received some of Wang Chen's savings, which gave them a little more leeway.

And Wang Hao's side, they'll definitely investigate.

I don't know how long we can keep this a secret.

If they really come looking for us, how should we handle it...?

Is he really going to be captured on the spot...?

Thinking about his future goals and the crises he faced, Li Mingyu's thoughts were in turmoil, and he was so sleepy that his eyes were almost closing.

Suddenly, a violent tremor came from the Immortal Scripture Space.

Li Mingyu suddenly came to his senses.

"What is it?"

He looked out into the infinite distance beyond the Immortal Scripture Space, where a purple dot of light was flashing and gradually growing larger.

Upon closer inspection, it was not a purple dot of light, but a huge purple star rapidly approaching.

The stars weren't twinkling, but pulsating, like a slowly beating heart.

It is the color of life.

Even from this distance, Li Mingyu could "hear" a silent shriek, not through his eardrums, but directly scraping his spinal cord, making him tremble.

That's the color itself vibrating.

The distance was rapidly closing, and Li Mingyu could barely see clearly:

That wasn't a star, but a space radiating intense purple light.

Before he could react, the "purple star" seemed to leap and teleport, and in the blink of an eye, it pierced through layers of ink-wash illusions with a dazzling and bewitching purple light, passing right in front of Li Mingyu, almost grazing the Immortal Scripture Space.

"They almost collided?"

"Little Leonardo DiCaprio!"

Li Mingyu heard Wei Kun outside anxiously calling "Little Li".

Wang Chen was also calling out:

"Mingyu, come out quickly! Something's happened! There's someone here... with Wei Kun..."
