Fairy, don't let your golden finger chase after me!

Chapter 93: Fighting to the very last moment! He committed suicide and returned to heaven!

Seeing Dong Mo's disheveled appearance, Yin Lingsu immediately revealed a satisfied smile.

"Although your stamina and endurance are very poor."

"However, your indomitable will is commendable. This is how we, the Sword Demon lineage, should be—even if our skin is torn and our bones are broken, we will fight to the death, until the very last moment when we commit suicide!"

Dong Mo's lips twitched: "Suicide... So no matter what, you're going to die anyway, right?"

"Then just grit your teeth and try not to die," Yin Lingsu said with a matter-of-fact smile.

Hey, feed me... What do you mean by "try not to die"?! Is your head full of muscles?

Dong Mo lay on his back, panting, mentally ranting. Just then, a cold object was suddenly pressed against his face—a neatly folded, damp towel.

With a smile on her face, Yin Lingsu bent down and cast a gentle glance at Dong Mo.

"Since you're tired, you should take a good rest."

Ah... Master, I take back all those rude terms I used to address you!

I love you dearly! I'm so sorry to call you a female gorilla!

"Once you've rested enough, we'll resume training immediately," Yin Lingsu added.

Damn it! Give me back my feelings of being touched! You bastard!

You should just go beat your chest by yourself! You muscle-bound gorilla!

Just as Dong Mo was struggling to get up, Yin Lingsu swiftly lifted him up with one hand and placed him on the bench next to her. Then she sat down next to Dong Mo and slowly ran her fingers through his sweat-soaked, disheveled hair.

Faced with his master's intimate gesture, Dong Mo immediately became uneasy and froze on the spot, afraid to move.

"Hehe... Even though you're training, you should at least pay attention to your appearance." Yin Lingsu's movements were gentle and natural, like grooming her own cat.

Looking at Dong Mo's increasingly flushed face, Yin Lingsu withdrew her hand, smiled at him for a moment, and then her expression became slightly more serious.

"Speaking of which, Dong Mo! Which path do you plan to cultivate in the future?"

Upon hearing this, Dong Mo's heart stirred.

As a transmigrator and gamer, he knew all too well what Yin Lingsu meant by the Dao Path!

As mentioned earlier, the so-called Dao path is the cultivation path after reaching the Nascent Soul stage. There are a total of 365 Dao paths and positions in the world. To break through to the Nascent Soul stage, one must choose one of them and merge with it.

Simply put, these 365 paths are like the "official positions" issued by the Heavenly Dao to cultivators.

If a cultivator wants to continue breaking through, they must make a grand vow, receive a response from heaven and earth, and obtain "official status" in order to continue cultivating.

Moreover, after attaining the fruition, you must act on behalf of Heaven and uphold the corresponding rules, which in a sense is similar to signing a contract of servitude.

Of course, there are many benefits to attaining enlightenment, the most important of which is that you can live almost as long as heaven and earth, only needing to fulfill your obligations every three thousand years.

Just solve the tribulation task assigned to you by the Heavenly Dao. As long as you complete the task and overcome the tribulation, you can live for another three thousand years.

There are 365 positions, divided into four categories: Heaven, Earth, Mystery, and Yellow. Among them, there are seven Heavenly Paths, ten Earthly Paths, twenty-four Mysterious Paths, and one hundred and eight Yellow Paths.

At the same time, the ecliptic is divided into regular positions, intercalary positions, and residual positions, thus evolving into 324 fruit positions. Counting the three paths of Heaven, Earth, and Mystery, the number is exactly 365.

The competition for cultivation positions among cultivators is extremely fierce. You must not only guard against cultivators who want to compete with you for the same cultivation position, but also be wary of other cultivators who can complement your cultivation position and use you as cultivation resources.

After all, it is not uncommon in history for cultivators to devour each other and strengthen their own path.

Because choosing a cultivation level is very important for a cultivator's future, many talented cultivators from large families and powerful forces determine their future cultivation level as early as the Golden Core stage.

As Dong Mo was seriously recalling these game settings, Yin Lingsu, who was next to him, suddenly smiled and said...

"Disciple, if you want to choose a path to enlightenment, I recommend you choose the Earthly Soldier Evil path."

"Among the four paths of Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow, the Yellow Path is divided into the Three Powers, and the Black Path is divided into Yin and Yang. Only the Heaven and Earth Paths are unique, and there is no distinction between the proper position, the leap position, the residual position, or Yin and Yang. Therefore, there is naturally no need to worry about the phenomenon of those of the same path eating each other."

"The Earthly Soldier's Evil is a position in the Earthly Realm, which perfectly meets the requirements. Moreover, this position has been vacant for nine thousand years, so basically no one is competing with you for it."

Upon hearing Yin Lingsu's words, Dong Mo's expression suddenly became somewhat subtle.

As a descendant of the Dong family and a gamer, Dong Mo naturally knew why the position of Earthly Soldier Evil was empty.

That's entirely because when Dong Yan, the ancestor of the Dong family, abandoned his position and faked his death to be reborn, this position became bugged.

The old holder is alive, but the new holder can't take over, leaving them stuck in a dilemma. To fully inherit the Earthly Soldier's Evil Fruit position, they must act on behalf of Heaven and kill Dong Yan directly.

Otherwise, even if they reluctantly take over, they will be corrupted by Dong Yan's remnant soul, and may even become his resources.

Yin Lingsu was completely unaware of these inside stories and was still earnestly persuading Dong Mo: "The position of the Earthly Army and Evil Fruit Master can bind spirits and command generals, communicate between the Yin and Yang realms, control life and death, drive ghosts and demons, and steal souls and spirits."

"It can also raise the Five Witches' army, which can greatly enhance your combat strength in the early stages. In the later stages, you can even command the spirits of mountains and rivers, order local minor gods, and even use the dynasty's fortune to cultivate, influence the direction of the earth's veins, and borrow the power of heaven and earth to fight against enemies..."

Yin Lingsu's voice grew increasingly excited: "Upon cultivating to the Mahayana stage, one can even become the ruler of the Netherworld, controlling the mysteries of life and death in the Great Wilderness. It's extremely practical!"

Faced with Yin Lingsu's relentless promotion, Dong Mo was speechless. If he hadn't known that Yin Lingsu was a native and not a time traveler, and that she knew nothing about the origins of the Dong family patriarch in the game's storyline, Dong Mo would have thought she was deliberately trying to trick him.

"Master, I'm only at the Golden Core stage now, so I don't need to worry about these things yet, right?"

Faced with Dong Mo's polite refusal, Yin Lingsu immediately raised an eyebrow in response.

"So what if you're in the Golden Core stage? The Demon Emperor Jin Yun is in charge of the Heavenly Power Path and has the authority to bestow Daoist positions upon his subordinates. As long as you agree, I can ask the Demon Emperor to let you take charge of the Earthly Soldier position while you're still in the Golden Core stage! That's a full three major realms ahead of others."

"To be able to administer heavenly punishments at the Golden Core stage—how many cultivators would love to have such a path but can't even obtain it!"

Dong Mo: "..."

Dong Mo remained silent for a moment, carefully choosing his words: "Master, I haven't even stabilized my Golden Core realm yet. Rushing to merge with the Fruit Realm might not be a good thing. Besides... I always feel that a cultivator's path should be taken step by step. Relying on external forces too early can easily make one's foundation unstable."

Yin Lingsu stared at him for a few seconds, and seeing his resolute attitude, she helplessly shrugged and compromised.

"Since you don't want to reach the level of enlightenment too early, I won't force you. But if you change your mind later, you can come find me anytime."

After speaking, she stood up, stretched, and her long golden hair shone gently in the morning light.

"Have you rested enough? Then let's continue practicing."

"..."

As Dong Mo watched Yin Lingsu pull out the Star Tribulation again, he felt a wave of dizziness.

My master really doesn't treat me like a human being at all!
