The Correct Way to Use the Trigram

The strongest monster was killed, but the mission wasn't over; they still had to destroy this Different Dimension.

This kind of Different Dimension formed by Space Oscillation connected two realms, allowing both humans from the real world and Ruins monsters to enter and exit through the entrances on both sides.

Therefore, whenever a Different Dimension formed, the spatial fluctuations it emitted would attract surrounding Pollution Monsters, which was also the source of those Pollution Monsters.

These special spaces were classified by strength, with First Order strength only allowing First Order creatures to pass through, Level Two allowing Second Order, and so on.

Beyond Level Six, it was a stable small passage, allowing Transcendent and monsters of Sixth Order and below to pass through.

At the same time, the lower the level of this spatial structure, the more fragile it was. As long as the core point was found, a bomb called a Space Oscillation Hand Grenade could be used to destroy it.

However, the current space was over ten kilometers long and several kilometers wide, making it quite difficult to find a core point within an area of nearly a hundred square kilometers.

Especially since this core point didn't emit energy, and the anomaly of the air being disturbed could only be felt when very close.

At the edge of the town, Zong Zheng Nanmo looked at Jiang Hou, who was flying over from a distance, and asked strangely, "Jiang Hou, what are you looking for?"

Jiang Hou, wielding the Demonic Blade, with bandages wrapped around his body and black hair flying, stopped: "Looking for the core point of this Different Dimension, something like an invisible vortex."

"It's just that this vortex isn't big, and it's invisible and intangible, so it can only be discovered when very close."

"How long will it take to find it then?" Zong Zheng Nanmo scratched the back of his head.

Jiang Hou shook his head: "I don't know. If we're lucky, we might find it in a while. If we're unlucky, they say it could take a day."

Although troublesome, accepting this mission naturally meant completing it to the end.

Zong Zheng Nanmo pondered: "...So that's how it is. By the way, is that vortex dangerous?"

"They say it's not very dangerous. Even if a Second Order Transcendent falls into it, they'll only be a bit disheveled, like a waterless whirlpool."

"A little dangerous but not fatal, that's good. Watch me." As he spoke, Zong Zheng Nanmo's face revealed confidence, and he took out three ancient coins from his pocket.

Zong Zheng Nanmo squatted down, put his hands together, and muttered Taoist dialects that no one could understand. Then, he loosened his hands, and the three ancient coins landed.

One coin was heads up, and two were tails up, forming an oblique triangle pointing southeast.

While Zong Zheng Nanmo was studying the hexagram with his head down, Jiang Wanshan, with a face full of stubble, also swept over from a distance. Seeing this, he curiously came over: "Brother Jiang Hou, what are you doing?"

Jiang Hou said politely, "My companion can tell fortunes; he's calculating where the spatial vortex is."

"Fortune-telling...?" Jiang Wanshan was stunned.

At this moment, Zong Zheng Nanmo softly recited, "Shang Liu Er Yang Yao, West Wind Minor Ominous Sign, Three Mountains Encircled."

"Speak human language; we can't understand what you're saying."

Zong Zheng Nanmo chuckled: "I was just calculating my luck for going out. It means that if I go northwest, I'll encounter trouble, a minor misfortune, like tripping or something."

"This is my first divination today, so it should be accurate."

"You didn't do a divination before going out this morning?" Jiang Hou was a little surprised.

Zong Zheng Nanmo said triumphantly, "Isn't there an event tonight? So I didn't do a divination, to prevent the hexagram from being ominous and preventing me from going out. Now it comes in handy."

"Follow me."

Saying that, Zong Zheng Nanmo stood up, chanting Taoist dialect incantations as he headed northwest.

Watching Jiang Hou and the others walk towards the distant street, Jiang Wanshan thought for a moment and curiously followed.

The direction Zong Zheng Nanmo was heading was the street Jiang Hou had fought his way through. After crossing the street and arriving at the place where Jiang Hou had killed the Third Order Stone Demon, the young man turned and entered a small alley.

The alley was a dead end, and the three of them stopped after walking not far.

"No way out?"

Zong Zheng Nanmo looked left and right, but didn't sense any vortex, and neither did Jiang Hou. They didn't feel anything unusual around them.

Boom! A sharp blade of light slashed, and the two-meter-high wall blocking the alley collapsed, raising a cloud of dust.

Cough cough!! Zong Zheng Nanmo was almost choked by the dust and quickly waved his hand, creating a gust of wind. At the same time, he took two steps back and felt a suction coming from the wall behind him.

"Careful!"

Jiang Hou turned around, grabbed the only remaining part of a small leg in the air with one hand, and pulled Zong Zheng Nanmo out with a slight effort.

However, the posture of coming out was a bit special, with his upper body lying on the ground.

"Haha... Jiang Hou, it's here." The somewhat embarrassed Zong Zheng Nanmo lay on the ground, laughing loudly, because he seemed to have discovered the use of the divination.

Jiang Wanshan, who was following behind, was also a little surprised. He didn't expect Zong Zheng Nanmo, who was at the early stage of Second Order, to have this ability.

But now was not the time to be surprised. Jiang Wanshan jumped and leaped onto a building more than ten meters high next door, shouting to the distance, "Shen Tu Ge, the node is here."

Soon, Shen Tu Ni arrived first: "Wanshan, have you found the Space Node?"

Jiang Wanshan shook his head: "No, it's the little brother below named Zong Zheng Nanmo. He just made a divination and directly found the location of the node."

"Divination." The bald young man carrying the stereo was stunned.

"Ha... Uncle Jiang is praising me, I'm actually just lucky, lucky." Zong Zheng Nanmo said modestly from below.

"Um... little brother, can you not call me uncle? I just look a bit old, but I'm actually just a freshman in college." Jiang Wanshan smiled wryly on the roof.

Freshman!? Jiang Hou and Zong Zheng Nanmo were dumbfounded.

Bro, it's not just looking old, it's being old.

"Hahahaha... I didn't expect little brother Zong Zheng to have this ability. Keep it up, work hard to cultivate, and strive to break through Fourth Order as soon as possible to explore the Ruins together."

Shen Tu Ni became enthusiastic about Zong Zheng Nanmo all of a sudden.

"Fourth Order, it's too difficult." Zong Zheng Nanmo smiled wryly.

Shen Tu Ni said with a chuckle: "The improvement of strength is indeed very difficult, but for some people it is very easy, such as a special genius like brother Zong Zheng."

"Okay, let's get down to business first."

Saying that, Shen Tu Ni took out a palm-sized silver object similar to a time bomb, pressed a few buttons on it, and threw it directly into the vortex.

"Let's go, this place will be destroyed in fifteen minutes."

"Damn, Shen Tu Ge, why don't you set the timer longer?" Jiang Wanshan didn't dare to neglect and turned to run towards the entrance.

Including Fu Hongyu and others who rushed from afar, they also ran towards the entrance after receiving the notification.

Soon, Jiang Hou and the others passed through the invisible membrane and reappeared on the streets of the small town outside. Jiang Ruochan, as always, stood on the roof with her hands in her pockets.

Under the gaze of the group of ten, the air suddenly began to vibrate, and gradually a huge transparent bubble appeared, collapsing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Bang! With a dull explosion, the Different Dimension finally turned into a gust of wind and dissipated into the night sky.

"Alright, today's mission is over, everyone can go home and sleep."

Duan Xuan, carrying his Gatling gun, stretched lazily, his face full of smiles: "Consuming ammunition worth hundreds of thousands, earning more than a hundred points, a good deal."

Fu Hongyu sighed, "Young Master Duan has a great family fortune, we can't compare."

"Come on, my family just has a little more money, can't compare to you and Old Jiang. With these points, you can exchange for the Inheritance Crystal for your breakthrough, right?"

"Next time we meet, you'll be Fourth Order experts."

Jiang Wanshan nodded, "Almost. After working hard for so long, I've finally saved enough Inheritance Points to exchange for the Earth Element."

As he spoke, everyone felt a sense of emotion.

As Transcendent awakeners, they seemed to be able to improve their strength as long as they had enough resources, but only they themselves knew the dangers involved.

In order to save enough Inheritance Points to break through from Third Order to Fourth Order, Jiang Wanshan and Fu Hongyu had completed a large number of missions during this period, and had several near-death experiences.

And while it was said that they could improve their strength as long as they had enough resources, as their strength increased, the risk of Transcendent beings losing control and mutating also increased.

Because the source of their power was 'polluted'.

As they spoke, everyone dispersed.

Jiang Hou and the other two came to the roadside in the suburbs one after another. Jiang Ruochan took out a small black book: "This is your certificate, Zong Zheng. You did a good job today."

After saying that, the handsome girl waved her hand, and her figure disappeared in a flash.

Having broken through to Second Order, officially participating in a cleaning mission and playing a certain role, Zong Zheng Nanmo officially gained 'Jiang Ruochan's approval'.
