Chapter 1314: Chapter 912: Harvest
As the nascent sunrise spread its light over the graffiti on the Great Wall,
Li Changhe and Li Luoling admired their handiwork.
They felt somewhat fatigued, yet also satisfied.
The demigod, Three Corpses God, was incredibly durable. Even with only half a body left, its voice was still booming.
Even as it morphed into an indiscernible mass of flesh, its wails and screams filled the void.
Until the end, it held out hope for someone to come to its rescue.
It begged Li Changhe and Li Luoling for mercy, willing to pay any price, even to become a servant or a slave, as long as they spared its life. It promised to be their most loyal dog.
But all Li Changhe and Li Luoling wanted was its life.
So they treated its cries like a song, chatting and laughing as they wiped its last few pieces of flesh clean.
It was a sort of long-lost father-daughter bonding activity.
Of course, this had taken Li Changhe and Li Luoling the entire night.
Now, both father and daughter were indeed exhausted and in disarray, their clothes stained with blood and bits of flesh.
Battling a demigod had worn them out, and their injuries were far from light.
"Ugh..." Li Luoling shook off the blood and grime from her hands, her face etched with disgust as she remarked, "That was kind of disgusting, after all."
Li Changhe thought to himself how you, who had been so keen to hack the enemy into pieces, had any right to call your dad disgusting? Weren’t you also enjoying spreading the paint just now?
"All right, let’s get ready to go back. Can you still fly?" Li Changhe’s body shimmered with a spatial fluctuation as he swapped out his bloody Mountain Pattern Armor and Bronze Mask for a magical suit, instantly looking much cleaner. Only his complexion remained a bit pale.
Meanwhile, Li Luoling walked into the sea to wash off the blood from her body. After changing into clean clothes, she shook her head in response to Li Changhe’s question, "Not really, there’s something wrong with my ribs. It hurts a bit. What about you, Dad?"
"I’m probably a bit worse off than you," Li Changhe grimaced. He had suffered some severe hits from the God Sin when he activated Mad Devil, resulting in three cracked ribs. Fortunately, with his robust physique, such injuries would heal after a few days of rest.
Since both had trouble moving, Li Changhe took out the reins and summoned the Nine Heavens Dragon Horse.
He was quite pleased with this flying mount. Capable of flight and combat, it was one of the most satisfying acquisitions from this operation.
As for the rest... there was also the Tianyan Association’s Si She, the Epic Level Abnormality, Heavenly Eye.
Just to see what the rewards for this task would be.
Then, the two mounted the Dragon Horse, which moved through the air effortlessly. Thanks to their Riding abilities, they hardly felt any jolts.
The Dragon Horse moved at full speed, and in no time, they could see Si Men County from afar.
The place was bustling, with officials, the military, and some external players having suppressed the monsters and monsters from outside.
They counterattacked into the Hundred Thousand Mountains and joined forces with the Great Wall players inside, rescuing trapped humans. Some non-official players, meanwhile, hunted down mountain gods and monsters for experience and materials.
Since the task involved rescuing a certain number of humans, they were working hard, providing significant convenience to the official operations.
Several mountain gods, in an attempt to show they meant no harm, frantically sought humans to shelter in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. Upon seeing the Great Wall, they surrendered without any of the ferocity or arrogance that characterized mountain gods before.
By the time Li Changhe and Li Luoling arrived at a rooftop, they witnessed a large number of humans being rescued. The mountain gods and monsters were either taken out by the Great Wall players or cowering in corners, indicating they were harmless.
As Li Changhe and Li Luoling reached the rooftop,
the Ancestor appeared beside them, bringing breakfast for both.
However, having just finished their graffiti work, neither had an appetite.
The Ancestor didn’t mind and turned to Li Changhe to ask, "How about it, kid? Got a grasp on it yet?"
Li Changhe knew what the Ancestor was asking about and nodded slightly, "I’ve got some clues. That beast, Three Corpses God, used so-called Divine Quality to elevate itself from the role of Stubborn Corpse to a demigod. Of course, I’m not sure if faith and merit are essential."
"That’s a minor issue. Both merit and faith are relatively simple for players. And given that your Evil Corpse already possesses demigod strength, it obviously has Divine Quality," the Ancestor said with a smile. "What’s left is for your Good Corpse and Stubborn Corpse to gain Divine Quality. Once balanced, the three demigod-level Corpses can merge. Then you can attempt to find your true self and construct your throne."
Li Changhe contemplated that his Evil Corpse was the Crying Hero, a different outcome constructed from within the disaster fog. It was probably because of its existence that Li Changhe had the Divine Quality of the Evil Corpse. An irreplicable tragedy. It would be difficult for him to find other Divine Qualities.
"That guy’s Divinity stems from an experience of his original self in the Ghost Valley. You can find a way from here. There’s a lead at least, and your efforts at letting him become a demigod were not in vain," the Ancestor remarked and then looked at Li Luoling, "And you, girl? How far are you from becoming a demigod after fighting with one?"
"Not quite there. After all, the Three Corpses God was suppressed by our Black Mud Divinity. Plus, with my dad’s support, I didn’t feel a life-threatening danger. I didn’t gain much," Li Luoling responded.
"Opportunities will come. The Mirror of Time and Space is not over yet," the Ancestor spoke and then left the rooftop.
The next second, he appeared several kilometers away beside Xuanyuan, addressing the Xuanyuan Divine Sword in his hands, "Old fellow, if all three Corpses reach demigod strength and then merge, what level could they achieve?"
Even Ancestor Chiyou, who had seen the path of the Three Corpses God’s ascension, had never witnessed a demigod quite like this before.
With a single Corpse achieving divinity, it gained demigod-like power. How much more would the merger of three offer?
"How would I know? The demigods I’ve seen are limited to a few paths, and the Great Wall’s demigods ascended through faith. There are no comparable examples. But if it really reaches that stage, it should..." the Xuanyuan Divine Sword responded, "be no less than a peak Human Emperor!"
"So it’s almost rivaling a True God?" Ancestor Chiyou raised an eyebrow, "I’ve only just recovered to the level of a True God."
"Then keep hiding deeper and don’t let the outside world know you haven’t fully recovered," the Xuanyuan Divine Sword said darkly.
...
Afterward, Li Changhe found Xiao Nan and Chen Yu, and the group of four returned to the apartment.
A few hours later,
as the last human was rescued from the Hundred Thousand Mountains, the participating players received the task completion prompt in their minds.
[Task Completed: Invading the World of Demon Country]

[Note: You have defeated and killed a Demigod, becoming the true God Slayer, your renown echoes through the void]
[Achievement Reward: One Legendary Blessing][Can upgrade items below Legendary Quality to Legendary Quality][Not effective on God Sin]
[Player level increased to LV14]
[Gained Free Attribute Point: 1]
Great!
The Three Corpses God, oh, Three Corpses God, truly a giver of wealth! Not only did it exhilarate me, but it also helped me level up. Now, I, Li Changhe, have finally reached LV14.
After inwardly mocking the Three Corpses God for sending itself to its death, Li Changhe allocated that free attribute point to strength in his consciousness.
LV14[Archer Bai Tou·Bafang Daye]
[Strength: 11+1][Strength Trait: Mastery]
[Agility: 9]
[Physique: 15][Third Physique Trait: Flame Emperor Soldier Annihilation Body]
[Energy: 10+1][Energy Traits: Spiritual Perception]
Apart from Physique, Li Changhe’s other attributes were relatively even. After activating Thunderbolt Extreme Speed, he would receive a boost of Strength +1, Agility +2.
Now my Strength will reach 13 points, triggering the second Strength Trait!
With that said, Li Changhe walked to the center of the rooftop and activated Thunderbolt Extreme Speed.
Strength increased again, triggering the second Strength Trait.
[Second Strength Trait: Thunderstrike]
[Trait Effect: Reduce energy consumption of skills by 30%, strengthen skill power by 30%, and carry an imposing pressure when striking]
"Thunderstrike, huh? Compared to the skill ’Lifting Mountains and Rivers’ from the box, both reduced consumption and power boost are a bit less. That one is 50%, I only have 30%," Li Changhe pondered. "But I’ve gained an imposing pressure. Not sure if that’s a good trade..."
Afterwards, Li Changhe stopped using Thunderbolt Extreme Speed and focused his consciousness on drawing abilities.
In fact, Li Changhe wasn’t really lacking any skills, and it didn’t matter much to him whether he got them, as long as they weren’t flying skills.
"Dare you give me the ability to fly! Fly, come on!" Li Changhe chanted silently in his heart. He remembered very clearly that the Three Corpses God could fly. If he drew that ability, he’d hit the jackpot.
Then, Li Changhe turned around and saw.
His companions, Xiao Nan, Chen Yu, and Li Luoling, were all silently shaking their heads.
"You guys are too much!" Li Changhe complained.
"You have to accept reality," Xiao Nan said with a smile. "Look, I still have the Sword of the Cliff from the Hundred Generals. I’m keeping it for you."
Chen Yu also nodded, "I see you’ve become a Demigod, but I doubt that means you can fly."
"Auntie is right!" Li Luoling also responded with a laugh.
"Damn it, come out!"
However, space fluctuated in his hand for an instant.
That was the ability drawn from the Demigod Three Corpses God, an Immortal Method, Star-grasping Sleeve.
Tsk... Who needs your Immortal Method, give me the flying ability, damn!
Li Changhe, with a face full of tragedy, put the learning card into his backpack.
After that, he silently drew the ability from Si She.
And then... Li Changhe’s face turned very strange. This Si She had something special...
"What did you draw?" Seeing Li Changhe’s surprised and somewhat abnormal expression, Xiao Nan asked curiously.
And in the next second, Li Changhe picked up Xiao Nan and headed into the bedroom.
What Li Changhe drew from Si She... was a Dual Cultivation technique.
(Today I was infuriated by trolls, saying that I’m slandering the officials, that I’m a dog for GMD. Damn it, has the official Great Wall ever been slandered in this book? When has the Great Wall not acted to protect the civilians? What the hell have I slandered? Damn it, I’m so mad I can’t even eat. Damn it.)
