"younger sister!"

Wang Jie's pupils dilated in shock as he glanced at the unconscious Qin Yuqing.

"Yuqing actually has such a powerful older brother? I've never heard her mention him before?"

He was about to ask for details when he turned his head and saw Xiao Yun's body slowly turning into ashes and scattering in the air.

"They left so quickly, without waiting for Yuqing to wake up... No, wait!"

Wang Jie suddenly frowned, realizing he had discovered a blind spot.

"Although he revealed this information to me, he probably didn't want Yuqing to know his true identity."

"Otherwise, he could have just made it clear from the beginning, and there would have been no need for this mysterious ceremony."

"So... there's more to this than meets the eye..."

Wang Jie nodded slightly, feeling that he understood Xiao Yun's meaning.

"Don't worry, Mr. Death, I will secretly provide Qin Yuqing with assistance and will not reveal your identity."

He spoke to the dissipating ashes.

I don't know if it was just my imagination, but the drifting ashes suddenly sank, as if they were nodding.

The descent ritual ended, and Xiao Yun's consciousness slowly returned to his original body.

"This Wang Jie is a sensible man. In that case, the girl's safety should not be a problem."

Xiao Yun secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Once I calmed down a little, a strong feeling of fatigue instantly swept over my whole body.

Xiao Yun swayed and almost fell to the ground.

Fortunately, Ji Mingyu, who was standing by, caught him in time.

"Are you alright? How did it go? Did it work?"

Ji Mingyu hurriedly asked, and Zhong Mo and Wang Tianyuan also came over, handing over the medicine with concern in their eyes.

After taking a bottle of all-purpose recovery potion, the cooling sensation dispelled all the fatigue in my body.

Although I still feel a bit empty inside, it no longer affects my ability to move forward.

Xiao Yunchong and the other two smiled and waved the [Thousand-Faced Mage] job change card in their hands.

"I'll personally take charge, needless to say."

The three of them looked delighted and cheered.

"That's great! Even if ten or eight king-level beings come, we don't need to be afraid!"

Xiao Yun nodded, finally relieved.

Just then, the guild channel was suddenly filled with frantic message notifications.

Gu Shen: "Sudden anomaly! The number of people turning into the dead has increased dramatically. A large number of eighth-sequence dead have appeared in the South Campus. All available combat personnel, please proceed immediately!"

"How could that be!"

Xiao Yun's face instantly darkened, and his previous joy vanished without a trace.

"The effects of the full moon are too intense, and it's normal for many people to be unable to cope. That's okay, we have contingency plans."

Ji Mingyu patted Xiao Yun on the shoulder and comforted him:

"Right now, the most important thing is your advancement and job change. You don't need to worry about these things for now; we'll handle them."

Xiao Yun nodded and took out a bunch of things.

"This is the [Ghost Eye Sorcerer] job change card obtained by killing a special professional. Old Ji, keep it. If you don't have a better option later, use this to change jobs."

"Take the matching equipment [Magic Power Ritual] with you too, it'll be just right for you to use."

"This is the exclusive building dropped by the Thousand-Faced Demon, the Thousand-Faced Demon Abyss. It's very special. Although it can't generate seventh-order combat power like the Amethyst Mine, it can manipulate the corpses of the dead, making it very suitable for dealing with the beast tide. You can take it and place it on the front line."

"I've put the rest of the miscellaneous weapons and resources in the warehouse. Tell the others to take them if they can use them."

After speaking, Xiao Yun paused and hesitated for a second.

"I was thinking of using it first to test the negative effects, but... never mind, you guys take this."

As he spoke, Xiao Yun took out a black box.

The box was covered with mottled bloodstains, and the dense lines, like blood vessels, converged to form a hideous gaping maw.

The moment it appeared, a strange murmur rang out.

"I'm so hungry, so hungry! Give me something to eat!!!"

Interspersed among these sounds were hoarse teeth grinding sounds and sticky swallowing sounds, like a starving beast smacking its lips in your ear, sending chills down your spine.

Ji Mingyu and the other two simultaneously became alert and asked in deep voices:

"This is……"

"The gift I received was an A-grade cursed item called [Gluttony's Mouth], which is currently sealed."

"This cursed item seems to be of a rather special grade. Although it is grade A, judging from its effects, it has completely surpassed the level of this grade. It should be graded A by the system because of its negative effects."

Xiao Yun handed the [Mouth of Gluttony] to Ji Mingyu and continued to explain:

Its core ability is to devour everything and transform it into power, and this transformed power has three uses.

"First, it allows for active absorption, which amplifies combat power. This is because the Devouring Mouth has no upper limit, and as long as you can withstand it, the theoretical increase you can gain is also unlimited."

"Secondly, it will unleash the Gluttonous Maw, which will gain equal combat power. I took a look and found that two complete King-level weapons can bring the Gluttonous Maw to the King level. Given the characteristics of the Gluttonous Maw, it will definitely be much stronger than an ordinary King-level weapon."

"The third one is very simple: semi-liberated, used as a cannon, to launch the stored energy."

"But the price is very high. Absorbing power will cause you to develop bulimia, gradually going mad and wanting to devour everything. The more you absorb, the more severe the disease becomes, and eventually you may even eat yourself. Don't use it unless absolutely necessary."

"Unleash the Gluttonous Mouth... I suggest not doing this when I'm not around. With its ability to eat anything and grow stronger with each bite, releasing it would probably pose a greater threat than the dead and king-level monsters combined."

"So I suggest you use the third method. This only slightly reduces SAN, but the risk is more manageable."

After giving his instructions, Xiao Yun said in a deep voice:

"There are less than two hours until dawn. Be flexible and adapt to the situation. If you can't hold on, don't force yourself. Retreat to headquarters and wait for me."

The three nodded, took their things, left the Truth Bookstore, and hurried to the front line.

Xiao Yun summoned the insects and the little fire dragon, instructing them to guard the gate.

Then, Xiao Yun sat down and silently circulated the [Harmony of Heaven and Man] technique.

As his chaotic thoughts gradually calmed down and all distractions disappeared, Xiao Yun began his advancement.

The [Profession Advancement Card] appeared in his hand, and with a thought, it slowly floated up and turned into specks of light in the air.

A soft light shone down, and a crisp system notification sound rang out.

[Ding! Advancement ceremony begins...]

[Entering the Primordial Path to Godhood!]

……

Just as Xiao Yun was advancing, on the other side of Eternal Terra...

The western continent, with its central ocean shrouded in mist, was bathed in crimson moonlight, which cast a melancholic glow upon the spires of churches and bell towers.

Inside the church, sunlight streamed in, and countless figures knelt at the feet of a faceless statue, their expressions serene, praying devoutly.

Even the roars of wild beasts and the screams of the crowd could not disturb the tranquility here.

But suddenly, the believers all turned their heads and looked eastward.

"Thousand Faces...is he dead?"

Countless voices rose in unison, followed by a sigh from the void.

The faceless statue raised its head, facing east, and a faint, ethereal voice emanated from within it.

"I told you to play it safe and develop your strength cautiously, but you insisted on going all out. Look what happened, you died from being so reckless."

As Plass looked at the countless worshippers kneeling before him, a sense of smugness rose within him:

What's the use of manipulating some rotten shells? Only by winning people's hearts can you truly win everything from them, and that is the only path to 'wholeness'!

"It's just a pity it's dead. We'll have to go through the trouble of finding someone to absorb its power later..."

The elusive sound quickly disappeared, and the church returned to silence.

A while later, a figure suddenly appeared at the church entrance.

As he stood there, a brilliant light descended from the sky, illuminating his golden hair and magnificent armor, making him appear like a holy knight descended from heaven.

Those azure eyes, like a clear sky, reflected a radiant glow, as if they contained the sun within them.

"Huh? Absolutely amazing!!!"

A silent gasp echoed in the void, accompanied by what sounded like slurping saliva.

At this moment, the handsome young man nodded slightly to the worshippers and asked softly:

"Excuse me, is this the 'Plass Church'?"

"You...you're here for worship, right? Welcome, welcome, come in."

Countless believers nodded in unison, making way for each other.

"Thank you, but... I'm not here to worship."

A chill flashed in the young man's azure eyes as he drew his greatsword from behind.

"Come out, you demon, your father is here."

"Arrogant!!!"

A roar rose from the void, and the faceless statue trembled.

"When I take control of your consciousness and change your perception to that of a little girl in ten thousand different poses, you'll know—"

"What is humility?!"

Battle broke out.

Two minutes later, the faceless statue looked at the sky filled with golden lightning, its face showing confusion.

"Do paladins possess this ability?"

Five minutes later, the dying youth cast a Holy Healing spell on himself, leaped up, pulled out a large bow as tall as a story-story building from his back, and riddled the church with holes.

"Hmm, a paladin, it's normal that he knows healing magic and is also quite skilled with arrows."

Plass was a little flustered.

Ten minutes later, when the four-winged angel emerged from the doorway and the alchemical array filled the entire church, Plass Demon could no longer sit still and chose to take a gamble.

The faceless statue emitted a dazzling white light, and countless tentacles burst forth from the void, penetrating the youth's brain.

"Hehehe! No matter how strong you are, once you've been invaded by me, you'll only become my food."

"You're very capable, I like you a lot, it's mine now!"

Plass laughed heartily, but then suddenly stopped.

It looked at the young man with a blank expression.

"Why is your brain... so empty? How do you use so many skills then?"

The young man pulled the tentacle from his brain and smiled:

"It's very simple. I thought it would work, so I used it."

The faceless statue was stunned, then instantly knelt before the youth, pleading:

"Hehe, can we make peace?"

"At this very moment? You must be joking with me."

The young man grinned and slammed Plass Demon to death with his shield.

Several cards emerged from the corpse of the Plass Demon.

"【The Sole Observer】, finally a suitable job change for me..."
