He was overjoyed. The Skill Points requirement for the Level-3 swordsmanship talent was 300 points. This number could still be accumulated patiently, but to get to Level-4, the Skill Points requirement increased tenfold to 3,000 points.

In the future, when his level increased, the Skill Points requirement would be even more difficult to achieve.

When he tried various methods to intentionally lower the Skill Point requirements, none of them had worked. However, when he unintentionally killed the fox formed by black smoke, Chen Yiming was able to speed up the enhancement of his swordsmanship talent.

“Sir… as long as you are willing to spare my life, I am willing to pay any price,” Asou Nishiko pleaded as she stared fearfully at Chen Yiming.

At this moment, she looked just like someone who was willing to become a pet under a master and let her master control her life. Coupled with her seductive looks, no man would be able to reject her.

However, she was met with a stern gaze.

“Tell me truthfully, what is this fox made of black smoke?” Chen Yiming asked.

His casual attitude had suddenly become unprecedentedly serious.

At this moment, one Asou Nishiko or even 100 or 1,000 of them were not as important as the method to reduce the Skill Points requirement for upgrading his swordsmanship talent.

“That’s the god our Asou clan is worshiping…” Asou Nishiko did not dare to hide anything and quickly explained.

There were many such gods in Japan. After the invasion of the otherworld, they had been adopted into Japanese culture, so she did not dare to trick him.

Chen Yiming’s expression remained unchanged, but his heart was in turmoil.

These gods were not the powerful gods in the myths who had the ability to destroy the world. Instead, they were sacrificial spirits born from the blood of a virgin girl offered on an altar built in the otherworld after being worshiped by thousands of people for a long time.

These sacrificial spirits that were treated as gods by the Japanese were extremely weak shortly after they were born. They had to coexist with the girl who had provided the blood used to create them in order to survive.

Furthermore, the method to increase their strength was extremely cruel. They had to kill other living beings and consume their souls.

“You’re only an ordinary warrior, but your spirit living within you has actually reached the peak of the warrior realm. No wonder the Daxia Kingdom allowed you to move freely within its borders.”

Chen Yiming nodded.

When Asou Nishiko heard this, her body trembled. She knew what the other party meant.

“I discovered that I had a special spiritual talent from a young age. I can understand the thoughts of animals and communicate simply with them…”

The sacrificial spirits obtained by the Japanese through this special sacrificial method already contained the emotions of thousands of people. As they grew up, they also forcefully devoured the souls of living creatures.

They could be said to be life forms with extremely unstable emotions, similar to the evil spirits in legends.

The clans performing the sacrificial ceremony had to be humble and worship the spirits as their gods. However, even so, there was still a possibility of the spirits devouring the souls of those who had created them.

Chen Yiming glanced at the pale-faced Asou Nishiko.

The reason why she had managed not to be devoured was probably related to her special communication ability. Otherwise, if there was a difference of two realms between them, she would already have been devoured by the spirit.

“Actually, I have to thank you, Sir. Otherwise, I would have become its food one day.”

Asou Nishiko sighed, as if she had let go of a heavy burden that had been weighing her down.

This was similar to how an experienced breeder would understand the habits of a ferocious beast when raising it. Even if they had lived together for a long time, there was still a chance that they would be attacked by it.

On top of that, the spirit fed on souls.

“Your special ability is quite useful. Stay by my side from now on,”

Chen Yiming instructed. There was no need to doubt her words and he just took her in to use her abilities for himself.

As the daughter of the head of a faction at the peak of the warrior realm, Asou Nishiko was the best guide for him to find the sacrificial spirits in Japan.

Otherwise, if he relied on brute force to fight them head-on, he could not possibly go against the entire Japanese nation and destroy all the high-level factions in the country.

Even without considering whether it would work, if he really did that, his reputation on the blue planet would be completely ruined.

“Master, just tell me what you want me to do.”

Asou Nishiko smiled sincerely.

To her, this was also a new start.

It had to be known that the sacrifice of a virgin’s blood was usually done when one was still very young. At that time, one did not know what the consequences would be.

When she reached the age where she understood what had happened, the spirit had already become one with her.

No one was willing to live their life being on tenterhooks everyday. They were afraid that one day, they would be like those who had their souls devoured by the spirit and become its food.

Thinking of this, Asou Nishiko blushed and said shyly, “Master, take me now. Make it such that it is impossible for me to coexist with another spirit again.”

Only the blood of a virgin girl could give birth to such a sacrificial spirit. If her virginity was taken, Asou Nishiko would become useless to her clan.

“What should we do about them?”

Chen Yiming gestured at the people who had fainted.

“The previous spiritual attack wasn’t meant to kill them. They will wake up tomorrow morning. After that, they will recover after resting for 10 to 15 days,” Asou Nishiko replied.

Chen Yiming nodded. He was relieved.

Otherwise, if something happened to so many warriors, it would cause a huge commotion even in Jiangnan City.

Next, it was naturally time to get down to business.

Chen Yiming carried Asou Nishi into a room in the club.

He would also be taking his pleasure while helping her at the same time. If Asou Nishiko remained a virgin, it was hard to guarantee that she would not be secretly captured by the Asou clan again when he was not around.

That night, Chen Yiming enjoyed the full, Japanese style of service.

This made him sigh. Although the Daxia Kingdom was strong as a whole, they were still inferior to other nations in some ways.

…

In the parliament of West Australia.

The entire meeting room was silent. From the senators to the president, everyone was paying attention to a situation that was unfolding in real-time.

An hour ago, a new piece of information came from the space-travel passage in Sydney City. There was something strange about the stone golem that had been broken into dozens of huge rocks.

Therefore, a parliamentary meeting was urgently convened.

The subsequent actions of the mutant stone golem would affect the entire situation in Western Australia.

“It moved, it moved,” a senator shouted.

Black and yellow lights instantly lit up the screen. Then, dozens of the huge rocks fused together seamlessly. In less than half a minute, an intact stone golem stood up.

“God, please, let this guy leave Western Australia quickly,” a senator prayed on the spot.

As if the praying had worked, the stone golem looked around for a while and realized that no more attacks were coming.

Soon, the stone golem left the Western Australian territory and went into the sea along the path that the radiation dragon had taken.

“Praise be to God!”

The entire meeting room erupted in cheers.

As expected, the otherworld creatures that had undergone mutations due to the discarded nuclear waste had no interest in the nuclear-free Western Australia.

This meant that they no longer had to worry or be afraid. In fact, Western Australia could completely stay out of this matter. After all, the source of the nuclear waste was the major countries in the west.

At the same time, the Daxia Kingdom, the Sam Nation, Russia, and other large countries were also observing the movements of the stone golem.

At this moment, the hearts of the members in the upper echelons of the countries with nuclear power were bleeding.

Other than martial arts power, nuclear weapons were the foundation of a large country.

In this era where the wilderness was occupied by mutant beasts, nuclear power plants often generated nearly half of the country’s electricity, and in some countries, it was even more than half.

According to the reports from the experts’ analyses, more mutant creatures from the otherworld would continue to enter the blue planet. There was a high chance that a war involving the entire blue planet would break out.

This way, the nuclear weapons and nuclear power plants in everyone’s hands would become a hot potato. They would either have to use them up or become targeted by those mutant otherworld creatures.

All of a sudden, the communications between the nations became much more frequent than before.
