Chapter 90: Chapter 86: This Sky, So White!

Name: String of Destiny.

Type: Divine Machine.

Function: [Swallowing Filth: Absorb filth and transform it into Spiritual Essence.]

Function: [String of Destiny: Consume Spiritual Essence to simulate the appearance and function of a Divine Machine. The more complex the Divine Machine, the more Spiritual Essence is consumed. Only one Illusionary Artifact form can be maintained at the same time, but Divine Machine effects can be possessed simultaneously.]

Function: [Rebirth: Consume Spiritual Essence to enhance the functions of the String of Destiny.]

Function: [Refining: Refine a hundred billion Spiritual Essence into True Essence. Use True Essence for Rebirth, which has a stronger enhancement effect, can replace simulation consumption, and has a more powerful effect.]

Function: [Unity: Once the String of Destiny is officially recognized, it binds with the user’s Primordial Spirit, sharing life and death, understanding each other’s thoughts, and can also be stored between the Purple Mansion.]

Spiritual Essence: [Five hundred sixty-two billion plus.]

True Essence: [Zero.]

Current Illusionary Artifact: Emperor Sword.

Simulated Function: [Qi Condensation: Condense and release the injected Divine Energy.]

Simulated Function: [Wolf Bite: Summon a Flame Wolf to devour the target.]

…

The original functions still exist and have been somewhat enhanced. Now a new function has been added, called Refining.

But it’s not Refining Divine Energy; it’s Refining Spiritual Essence.

Refining Spiritual Essence into True Essence.

One hundred billion Spiritual Essence to obtain one True Essence.

However, it seems to be more effective.

Lin Qianxuan immediately made the game character refine a few True Essences to enhance some functions.

He made some comparisons.

He found that the enhancement effect of True Essence is more than ten times stronger than that of Spiritual Essence.

The enhancement effect of one True Essence is at least equivalent to the enhancement of a trillion Spiritual Essence.

The gap is really that big.

So big it’s a bit ridiculous.

The enhancement after refining not only did not lose but also greatly improved the efficiency of Spiritual Energy utilization.

At this time, Lin Qianxuan vaguely understood how much the String of Destiny had changed after devouring the Divine Soul of the Filth God.

The game character, executing Lin Qianxuan’s instructions, traveled around the horizon of Kyoto, and the String of Destiny also swallowed a large amount of filth. The dark gray clouds in the sky gradually turned white.

The heavy snow had stopped at some point, and a bit of warm and gentle sunlight gradually shone through.

The slightly dilapidated and desolate Kyoto under the sunlight was still beautiful.

Since the calamity of filth, no one knows how many years it has been since sunlight last bathed this city.

The game character took the opportunity to unleash a rain, a gentle drizzle.

This was not in his instructions; perhaps it was something the game character wanted to do on his own.

The fine rain fell on the ground, activating seeds buried deep below, sprouting new shoots, bringing a new green to this land.

When the game character returned to the surface, he saw the members of the Rebel Army bathing in sunlight.

Their faces were full of joy and relaxation.

Some had tear marks on their faces, clearly having awaited this day for a long time.

Gongsun Yue stepped forward and led the game character into the house to rest.

Don’t misunderstand; there’s nothing inappropriate, just simple rest.

After enduring intense battles, the not fully recovered game character indeed needed to rest well.

If not for Lin Qianxuan’s instructions earlier, he would probably have chosen to rest first before purging the filth in Kyoto.

At this moment, as soon as the game character hit the bed, he fell asleep.

After the game character fell asleep, Gongsun Yue left the room.

Outside the room, Gongsun Ying had already been waiting for a long time.

Seeing this scene, Lin Qianxuan was somewhat puzzled, not understanding why the scene shifted here.

But in the next moment, he understood; it was clear that the game character was pretending to sleep and was using Divine Thought to spy on them.

Indeed, he still handled the Gongsun sisters’ emotional issues a bit roughly, and the consequences of using the demonic strategy were still there.

The situation between the two sisters was awkward, only suppressed before by the greater cause of saving the world.

Now that everything had calmed, those consequences would likely flare up.

[Gongsun Ying (worriedly glancing at the door): Yue’Er, is Mr. Lin alright?]

[Gongsun Yue (smiling and nodding): Sister, you don’t need to worry. Brother Lin is fine; he just needs some time to rest.]

[Gongsun Ying (nods): That’s good to hear.]

[Gongsun Yue (looking at Gongsun Ying): Sister, if you’re so worried about him, why don’t you take care of him yourself?]

[Gongsun Ying (blushing, looking down): How could I, when Mr. Lin and you have already… I wouldn’t want to trouble you…]

[Gongsun Yue (turning to the door): Sister, I wouldn’t be troubled, I’m only worried about you being upset… As for Brother Lin, he probably hopes you would! Right!]

Gongsun Yue seemed to have noticed the game character’s eavesdropping.

The scene instantly shifted back to the game character on the bed.

This time, he was genuinely resting.

Lin Qianxuan was relieved to see this.

The bond between the two sisters was deep, and the side effects of using the demonic strategy were not too severe.

Though it still seemed somewhat awkward, the matter of feelings sometimes involves someone getting hurt.

It’s impossible to have only happy and beautiful experiences.

True lovers often are not together because they adore each other’s virtues but because they accept each other’s flaws.

Lin Qianxuan input commands to advance the plot in the game.

The Rebel Army stayed in Kyoto for three days.

Mainly to clear the surrounding filthy spirits in Kyoto, preventing them from reaching the Imperial Palace and destroying the Eyes of the Filth Seal.

Then Gongsun Ying, Gongsun Yue, and the game character led dozens of rebels to prepare to return to Zhang City.

The remaining rebels would temporarily stay near the Eyes of the Filth to guard the seal and prevent any accidents.

The Flying Ship took to the sky, heading straight for Zhang City this time.

On the return journey, the game character once again used the String of Destiny to purge the surrounding filth.

Everywhere the phenomena pass, the impure air between heaven and earth is completely absorbed, leaving not even the impure spirits untouched.

The impure spirits deprived of their filthy air often end up only turning into flying ash and dissipating.

In the end, all that remained was a vast, desolate land.

The game character caused another rain, allowing green vegetation to regrow on the earth.

With stops and starts along the way, a journey that should have taken just one day took them five full days to return to Zhang City.

The return of the game character and his companions made the people of Zhang City incredulous.

What was even harder to believe was the filthy air being completely absorbed by the phenomena, and the sky no longer continuing to darken.

When they heard that the “Eyes of the Muddled Heaven” had been sealed and the calamity was completely ended, the citizens inside Zhang City couldn’t contain their joy, either crying or celebrating in various ways.

On the game character’s side, Lin Qianxuan decided to continue cleansing the filthy air, traversing the entire Great Qian Country.

It is best to completely clean out the impure spirits and filthy air, with particularly troublesome ones needing to be noted down.

Otherwise, if they cross over to his main world, it would indeed be nauseating.

Although Great Qian Country is vast, the current efficiency of the phenomena in cleansing filthy air is very high, capable of swallowing and absorbing all the filthy air within a radius of several miles per second.

Along with the game character’s escape speed, theoretically, it wouldn’t take more than a month to finish the cleansing.

However, the matter of causing rain cannot be included.

To cause rain everywhere, it would probably take no less than half a year to accomplish.

The game character obviously loyally executed Lin Qianxuan’s orders, and after greeting the Gongsun sisters, walked directly outside for a substantial half month.

Then, under Lin Qianxuan’s accelerated timeline, he returned to Zhang City.

By this time, the filthy air between heaven and earth had largely been cleansed, and inside the phenomena of the game character, there were nearly a trillion True Essences.

One True Essence equals ten billion Spiritual Essences, showing how exaggerated the filthy air accumulated in this world was.

By now, fifty-three days have passed in the game from when the game character crossed over.

Yet the game still hasn’t ended.

Lin Qianxuan contemplated what he should do next.

He thought perhaps he could use the “Eyes of the Muddled Heaven” to re-examine past strategy routes, to see if he could find the fastest way to increase the level of connection.

However, when the game character used “Eyes of the Muddled Heaven” to observe, no matter what, he couldn’t see any related information.

Regarding information related to the game “String of Destiny,” it seemed he couldn’t obtain it.

Because the causal weight of “String of Destiny” was much larger than his own.

Nevertheless, Lin Qianxuan didn’t give up the idea of peeking at strategies.

Unable to see the method to increase the level of connection, could he at least find the easiest way to gain favorability?

Unexpectedly, Lin Qianxuan did see it.

This route didn’t seem like a deviant strategy; in the flashing scenes, the game character simply had to crush the way forward.

Overall, it was purely the kingly route, with absolute power suppressing everything.

There was no place for Gongsun Ying and the Rebel Army to partake in any battles, even the small enemies were minimal, as the game character basically dealt with the adversaries himself.

Purely “gauzy flow.”

“This also increases favorability? Wait, this scene of Destiny’s marking? Was it a confession scene all along?”

In this scene of Destiny’s marking, Lin Qianxuan saw the game character using the “Eyes of Death” in front of Gongsun Yue.

Meaning, he directly confessed the need to strategize to obtain the talents and power of the Gongsun sisters.

Thus, the logic was the Gongsun sisters knew he was putting in effort for this, hoping to gain strength to save the world, hence wholeheartedly cooperating.

Rather than saying the game character strategized, it might be better to say they self-strategized?

No, the points for actions should be very high as well.

Lin Qianxuan pondered thoughtfully.

While thinking, Lin Qianxuan advanced the storyline.

Then the scene suddenly arrived in the bedroom.

Gongsun Yue was here too.

[Gongsun Yue (Pouring a cup of tea and handing it to you): Brother Lin, you’ve had a hard journey]

[Lin Qianxuan (Taking the tea): It hasn’t been hard, it’s also not just for you, but for the world I belong to.]

[Gongsun Yue (Nodding): Elder sister… she’s been very worried about you all this time…]

Lin Qianxuan raised an eyebrow, what does this mean?

Could it be…..

[Lin Qianxuan (Looking at Gongsun Yue): Sorry….]

[Gongsun Yue (Sitting beside you, holding your hand and gently shaking her head): Brother Lin, you don’t have to apologize, I don’t mind, but please treat my sister well, she’s been working hard all along, bearing everything alone…..]

The scene shifted as Gongsun Yue stood up before he could speak.

[Gongsun Yue (Smiling): Brother Lin, have a good rest, I’ll leave now.]

Finishing her words, Gongsun Yue turned and left.

Lin Qianxuan felt something was off, and indeed it was just as he thought.

Noise occurred outside the door.

The scene also shifted outside the door.

[Gongsun Ying (Struggling): Yue’Er, stop causing trouble….]

[Gongsun Yue (Pushing): He’s inside, go in quickly.]

“Thump~!”

Half-pushed, Gongsun Ying was shoved inside the room.

Then Gongsun Yue, without a word, directly locked the door.

Gongsun Ying patted the door.

[Gongsun Ying (Flustered, blushing): Yue’Er, stop fooling around….]

[Gongsun Yue (Taking the key away): Oh dear, the key got lost, sister don’t break the door, this is the residence left by our adoptive father, tonight just rest here at Brother Lin’s, tomorrow I’ll find a craftsman to help you open the door!]

After finishing the words, Gongsun Yue left accordingly.

Gongsun Ying turned around, looking at the game character sitting by the bed, her face already flushed.

Lin Qianxuan input a command on the screen, giving full control to the game character, then looked up out the window.

Be it vulgar or elegant, he couldn’t tell anymore. He only knew the moon was full; if he didn’t take a look, it would seem he lacked appreciation of beauty.

This night’s sky, so bright!
