The City of Terror

 However, the side effects of the Divinity were also from these beliefs. Once the divinity was eaten, then one would be influenced by these beliefs.

  In simpler terms, the person that ate the Divinity would have their hearts and minds affected. Their hearts and minds would then move toward the wishes of the beliefs.

  Naturally, this process was still the lighter side effect.

  After absorbing Divinity, in order to level it up, then one needed to continuously condense it, causing one to move even closer to the hope of the beliefs. Even ones form would be changed.

  It would be better to explain with an example.

  If the Divinity that was absorbed came from believers that wors.h.i.+ped fire, then their belief was fire. The heart and mind of the person that absorbed the Divinity would then become rash and pa.s.sionate. Moreover, the person"s form could become a blazing man. The person might even become burst into flames.

  From this a.n.a.logy, the Mutated Farmer"s Market"s condensed Divinity would be toward ma.s.sacre. Wei Xiao Bei did not a the chance to check the Divinity"s nature.

  That said, Ao Yan could understand it. He had warned Wei Xiao Bei out of kindness that he should not absorb divinity or else his heart and mind would be influenced.

  Naturally, if it was anyone else, they might not necessarily think that divinity was a bad thing.

  After all, Divinity greatly increased power.

  Wei Xiao Bei would naturally not go and absorb the Divinity himself. He simply did not have the chance to do so. Only the Life Altar could intercept the Divinity and absorb it.

  Perhaps Ao Yan also noticed this, thus he did not say anymore. He only closed his eyes and returned to sleep.

  Seeing Ao Yan uninterested in the Life Altar and return to sleep, Wei Xiao Bei relaxed.

  It was not that he was being greedy. He simply could not help it as these things were the key to his power.

  In any case, Ao Yan had returned to sleep. Wei Xiao Bei moved his attention back to the Mutated Farmer"s Market Core.

  After the golden grains were absorbed by the Life Altar, the tendrils began to quickly intercept and catch the Divinity with increasing accuracy.

  In the end, the last strand of Divinity was broken down and caught by the tendrils.

  As the last strand of Divinity was destroyed, the entire core appeared as if it could not support itself anymore. In an instant, it was weakened and limped on the ground.

  After the last golden gain was taken away, the tendrils all came out of the core and went back inside his hand. The Life Altar also went back to sleep.

  Wei Xiao Bei was not worried about the Divinity influencing him. The golden grains were being absorbed by the Life Altar and it was not affecting him at all.

  Wei Xiao Bei crouched down and poked at the core. The previously hard exterior of the core had now become like an eraser. It was soft and bouncy. Wei Xiao Bei tested it. Although he could tear apart a bit of the exterior with his full power, it was still quite hard.

  There was no doubt that it was still a good object. Wei Xiao Bei immediately stored the core and decided to leave it to the future as refining materials.

  After putting it away, Wei Xiao Bei pressed on the Dragon Fire Cauldron and thought for a bit. The Cauldron began to shrink to the size of his hand.

  Only then did he store it into his storage bracelet.

  Next, Wei Xiao Bei ordered the Digging Pigs and Fire Giants to completely dig out the protruding parts from the ground and throw them far away.

  With the core of the Mutated Farmer"s Market cleared, the next step would be faster.

  In around eight hours, the clean up was finished.

  At this time, Wei Xiao Bei did not delay and closed his eyes. He thought about leaving and began to disappear.

  ……

  As he returned to the real world, the first thing he did was check the time. Around a week had pa.s.sed since he entered the Dust World.

  His phone now had a lot of unread messages.

  The latest message was from Shan Bing. The auction was going to happen tonight at 8. The auction company had personally invited Wei Xiao Bei to partic.i.p.ate in the auction.

  It must be said that Wei Xiao Bei did not want to partic.i.p.ate after looking at the messages. However, when he was about to delete the message, he had a premonition. If he went to the auction, an unexpected good thing would happen.

  Just like that, he immediately changed his mind and called Shan Bing.

  Shan Bing answered Wei Xiao Bei"s phone in excitement. Before he even talked about the auction, the first thing he did was thank Wei Xiao Bei.

  The reason was simple; in a period of one week, Shan Bing had been a.s.sa.s.sinated three times!

  If Shan Bing had not obtained the three stand-ins, he would already be dead.

  Now, Shan Bing was not only safe, but he had also caught more than 10 international a.s.sa.s.sins. In addition, he had thwarted those people planning an a.s.sa.s.sination on him.

  Naturally, the a.s.sa.s.sins did not know that these Persons had replaced the real Shan Bing. If this were not the case, Shang Bing would not have been able to solve these problems so easily.

  In any case, the auction would not happen in Cui Hu City, but another city. Thus, Wei Xiao Bei would need to take the next scheduled flight there.

  After agreeing with Shan Bing, Shan Bing ordered someone to buy tickets and fetch Wei Xiao Bei from the Dojo. Wei Xiao Bei, on the other hand, had returned to the Dojo.

  The people in the Dojo were already used to Wei Xiao Bei disappearing for up to a week at a time.

  While Shan Bing"s people were not yet around, Wei Xiao Bei asked around to try to understand the situation of the Dojo and the security company.

  It could be said that Wei Xing Wu truly had the capacity. At present, the security company training base now had more than 600 people!

  On the other hand, the number of people he had nominated for the core student program already reached 50. Among them, there was a portion from the Shaolin schools and another portion from the Dojo.

  Naturally, before they could actually become core students, they would need to be tested one more time.

  Better to have nothing was the standard that Wei Xiao Bei told Wei Xing Wu. Naturally, Zhu Xin Yi needed to stand beside and a.s.sist Wei Xing Wu in choosing.

  After all, Zhu Xin Yi"s charm along with the Eye of Terror, Eye of Desire, and Eye of Ma.s.sacre was enough to bring out a person"s true nature.

  Of course, this required time.

  Thus the first batch of core students would need another week to be tested.

  After picking these core students, they would then need to undergo training in the Dojo. Afterward, they would train in the Dust World with Zhu Xin Yi, Huang Kun, and Andre.

  As they spoke about the matter of training in the Dust World, Wei Xiao Bei took 20 pieces of finger-sized roast fish and gave them to Zhu Xin Yi.

  Zhu Xin Yi was a bit puzzled, “Master, I already have a lot of food.”

  Wei Xiao Bei smiled, “This is not food. This is the key to entering the Dust World.”

  It was indeed top. These roast fish pieces were from the fish in the pool of the Feng Tou Mountains. Their main use was to help someone enter the Dust World.

  Naturally, the effects of the fish needed to be tested on the core students.

  Was it that they needed to eat every time they entered or was it that they could enter anytime after eating them once?

  Naturally, both scenarios had their benefits.

  Eating it every time they entered could exercise control over the students, but they would end up consuming a lot. After all, there was not a lot of fish in Feng Tou Mountain.

  On the other hand, being able to enter anytime after eating the roasted fish just once could create experts, but then it would become problematic if the students were to defect.

  Wei Xiao Bei was not too anxious about this problem at the moment. After all, the students that were to be chosen would not have a bad nature. The chance of betrayal should be very low.

  After realizing the importance of the fish, Zhu Xin Yi was very careful as she quickly placed them inside the storage bag.

  Wei Xiao Bei looked at Zhu Xin Yi and Huang Kun. These two disciples were his most capable a.s.sistants.

  He recalled that Zhu Xin Yi"s weapon was the Sacred Beetle Machete and Huang Kun"s was the small Zhua. Compared to their current strength, these weapons were a bit weak. They were not enough to display their full potential.

  There was no more time now. If he had the time, he planned to refine better weapons for them.

  In truth, even Andre, the American soldiers, and those core students needed weapons.

  Naturally, this would require a lot of time.

  However, there was no doubt that refining weapons would help train his [Weapon Refining] skill.

  After all, using purely Evolution Points would consume a lot.

  According to the rule of Evolution Point calculation, if he wanted to increase its level from Advanced to Expert, he would need at least 10,000 Evolution Points!

  Just when Wei Xiao Bei was warning Zhu Xin Yi and Huang Kun about some matters, the person Shan Bing sent over had arrived.

  After telling them to defend the Dojo and to pay attention to choosing the core students, Wei Xiao Bei hugged Che Mei Han who was looking at him anxiously.

  Wei Xiao Bei felt a bit guilty toward Che Mei Han. After she followed him, she did not complain at all, and he had been away longer than he was together with her.

  Luckily, seeing that Che Mei Han was forming good relations.h.i.+ps with the others, Wei Xiao Bei had some peace of mind.

  Che Mei Han felt a bit embarra.s.sed in front of everyone when Wei Xiao Bei embraced her.

  On the other hand, everyone"s expressions were different.

  Huang Kun"s expression was that his master was truly a man. Andre"s expression was envy and admiration, and then he was pinched by his wife on the waist, causing everyone to laugh at his expression after.

  As for Zhu Xin Yi, her expression darkened slightly, but in the end there was not much emotional fluctuation.

  On the contrary, Xiao Bai Ling looked at the two, envious but also indifferent.
