When Chen Li spoke, the Xianzhou Medicine Seeker beside him was shocked beyond words.
Was that how one asked for a blessing?
You really only ever thought about yourself!
You did not even consider whether the Aeon of Abundance would be willing to grant it.
Then, the Medicine Seeker saw Chen Li pull a Crystal from nowhere and hold it in his hands, presenting it to the Aeon of Abundance as the vessel he intended to use for the supreme Power of Abundance.
Yet to Chen Li's surprise, Yaoshi, seated in the void, did not bestow any light of Abundance or miraculous spiritual item. Yaoshi merely plucked an ear of wheat from beside Yaoshi.
Throughout it all, Yaoshi's gentle, beautiful face retained its loving expression.
Chen Li returned to the Purification Space.
However, compared to before he used the Easter Egg, he now held an ear of wheat, golden with a faint emerald hue.
Other than its excellent appearance, the wheat no longer possessed the vast Life Force that Chen Li had felt when he first held it, a force beyond description.
Yet in Chen Li's eyes, the dazzling Abundance attributes on every grain proclaimed the wheat's extraordinary nature.
Although the Aeon of Abundance's gift did not seem to match what Chen Li had requested, the Aeon vanished immediately after granting the blessing, leaving him no chance to seek another. Thus, he returned to this space carrying only an ear of wheat.
Chen Li was quite satisfied with this blessing, because it was more suitable for creating Miraculous Items than "endless Abundance Divine Power."
Each of the forty-nine grains could yield one Abundance attribute.
This made Chen Li wonder what kind of Miraculous Item he could forge if he could pluck the attributes floating above the Aeon of Abundance's head.
However, due to the existence of "Concept Miracling" (attribute), the difference between extracting an Abundance attribute from an Aeon of Abundance and extracting one from an ear of wheat was not so great that Chen Li could not make up for it.
Besides, Yaoshi had given him far too much. Chen Li had never considered taking matters into his own hands.
"And... does this mean I might have another chance to seek a blessing in the future?" Chen Li examined a card in his hand.
Seeking Medicine (Miracle Card): Through a minor miracle, arrive before the Aeon of Abundance and successfully seek a blessing. Effect 1: While traveling through the Honkai world, selfless, healing, and altruistic acts make it easier to attract the Aeon of Abundance's gaze. Abundance Value can also be accumulated. Effect 2: When Abundance Value reaches 100, you may once again meet Yaoshi and seek the Aeon of Abundance's blessing. Effect 3: Can be used to forge a Miraculous Item.
This was a Miracle Card that had suddenly appeared when that ear of wheat landed in Chen Li's hands.
Crystal +30
His Starstones had not increased, because Chen Li had not disturbed anything.
This card's effects were clearly much stronger than the Comeback Kid card from the Herrscher of the Void.
This showed that Miracle Cards also differed in rank.
"Come to think of it, this Miracle Card counts as a trace I left behind in that world. Does that make it an Easter Egg?" Chen Li looked expectantly around the dazzling space.
Disappointingly, this Miracle Card did not produce a corresponding Miracle Easter Egg.
It seemed rather unrealistic that Miracle Cards obtained through Easter Eggs could generate new Easter Eggs.
"If I use Effect 2 of this Miracle Card while on the Xianzhou, will it teleport me before the Aeon of Abundance, or summon the Aeon of Abundance to the Xianzhou?"
Chen Li felt that if he could really summon the Aeon of Abundance on the Xianzhou, he absolutely had to obtain another Miracle Card—Face-to-Face Ult.
After putting the Easter Egg that could adopt cats into his Backpack, Chen Li remained in the Purification Space. This was the price of using that Easter Egg to receive a blessing before the Aeon of Abundance.
The Power of Abundance Chen Li had been contaminated with before the Aeon of Abundance also needed to be purified.
Fortunately, after triggering a Serendipitous Encounter for the first time and spending Crystals to construct the Purification Space, Chen Li did not need to pay again afterward. Otherwise, this purification would have made his already meager balance even worse.
When Chen Li's body gradually began to emit a faint white glow, he knew it was time to return.
Seven days east of the river, seven days west of the river—I, Chen Li, am back!

The Evil God: What? You Don't Want to Kill His Entire Family?
Crystal 82 Starstones 364 Novice Task (2): 4/5 Complete Miracle Check-in three times (2/3)
Looking at what he had gained during seven days in the Serendipitous Encounter World, Chen Li lay on the sofa without wanting to move at all.
Although the Miracle Barrier and Miracle Cards were enough to guarantee his survival, Chen Li was simply mentally exhausted. Miraculous Forging accounted for most of that strain.
"Between completing Novice Tasks and obtaining Miracle Cards, I've accumulated so many Crystals. I need to find a way to make myself an offensive Miraculous Item." Chen Li lightly tapped the cover of the Miraculous Forging Guide.
Furthermore, he only needed one more Miracle Check-in to complete Novice Task Two and obtain an additional reward.
However, finding a suitable "Miracle Check-in" in the Main World required luck, because perhaps everything was simply destined and could not be considered a miracle.
"Thinking about it, I should either return to Moth Chasing Flame or find a suitable commission and visit another world." Chen Li stroked his chin.
Although it would be strange to return to Moth Chasing Flame right after coming back from it, Chen Li had only returned to the Main World to settle his rewards and stock up. It was not because he missed this Main World.
Come on, who would genuinely like a world that seemed to be "bullying" them every second of every day?
Though that was because of his passive talent, it did not stop his impression of this world from getting worse and worse.
In this world, the bigger the waves, the more valuable the fish. But in other worlds, even without big waves, the fish were still valuable.
When one knew what was going to happen in a world—the plot—having a certain level of strength could allow one to grow more quickly.
At the very least, Chen Li knew what he had to do for it to count as a "miracle."
In this world, the people Chen Li cared most about were his parents and several "teammates."
Oh, and Relics.
That was very important.
To Chen Li, Relics were practically perfect forging materials.
The attributes on Relics all had extremely high brightness, which represented high quality. Moreover, since Relics themselves leaned toward being rule-based, transforming them into true attributes required very little Miracle Fire—just a few modifications and they could be used.
With that thought, Chen Li stood up and headed for his basement.
Because the original Chen Li did not have much resistance to anomalies, aside from the Knight's Broken Sword, all Miraculous Items with relatively severe side effects had been sealed in the basement.
Those were the things Chen Li had obtained amid one life-or-death crisis after another.
Before long, Chen Li returned to the living room and placed five items on the coffee table.
All five items were enclosed within special transparent containers.
This was the storage method for those five Relics. It was a universal storage method, but precisely because it was universal, it did not fully isolate their side effects. People with insufficient anomaly resistance could not face these boxes for prolonged periods.
However, after fusing with the Miracle System, Chen Li's resistance to anomalies had greatly increased.
A mirror, a die, a pair of glasses, a comb, and a microphone.
These five Relics were the items Chen Li had obtained through all the trouble he had faced over the years.
When Chen Li touched the containers, he could see the extremely bright attributes on those five items.
The mirror was actually a labyrinth, named the World in the Mirror. After use, it could transfer everyone nearby into a mirror labyrinth. Inside, they would face various challenges, and only those who survived them would qualify to leave. Yet so far, the survival rate of those who entered the mirror and emerged safely was only ten percent.
Its drawback was that even the mirror's user would be swallowed into the labyrinth, and the user would be specifically targeted.
Therefore, Chen Li had never used this thing.
And Chen Li's own experience of making it out of that labyrinth was difficult to put into words.
Its side effect was that when passing a reflective surface, one might be attacked by evil ghosts from the mirror.
That die was called the Lucky Twenty-Sided Die. Every face represented an event, and after using it, the user would experience that event.
However, at least eighteen of the die's twenty events were negative.
After any luck-based item interfered with one roll of the die, the die would become permanently immune to that item's effects.
The problem was that Chen Li had no idea what luck-related Relic could even affect this die.
Its carrying side effect was worse luck. Moreover, after the die was used, the user's luck would become even worse.
The glasses were X-Ray Glasses.
Yes, exactly. X-ray vision, just as imagined.
The kind that saw straight into your bones.
Their full name was Orthopedic Doctor's X-Ray Glasses. Their effect was a little stronger than X-rays, but not by much.
If there was any benefit to mention, it was that they could identify demons and monsters, making them an alternative demon-revealing mirror.
Their side effect was irreversible deterioration of eyesight, eventually leading to blindness.
Simply carrying them could also cause one's eyes to inexplicably shed tears of blood. Though it did not damage vision, it was terrifying.
The bone comb, on the other hand, was a good item. Named the Blood Comb, using it to comb one's hair could preserve eternal youth.
However, its side effect was that the comb had to directly drain 2,000 milliliters of fresh blood from a living person every day, and it would gradually cause the user to lose their sanity.
The Taunting Microphone did not have much of a side effect. When using the microphone, everyone who heard its voice would look toward the user.
The more Spirit Energy or magic power used, the larger the microphone's range of influence.
Its only side effect was that the user could only say through the microphone, "Everyone, look over here. I have an announcement: I'm an idiot!" And everyone who heard it would direct their hatred toward the user.
What a good item. Truly a good item. An essential weapon for the main tank in team battles.
It simply was not suitable for Chen Li.
It was precisely because these five Relics were either useful but had severe side effects, or simply useless, that Chen Li had placed them under seal in the basement.
Besides the Relics, Chen Li had also tossed some strange little objects into his Backpack. They all had more or less a few attributes on them.
"Ding-dong!" Just as Chen Li was considering how to use the attributes of these five Relics to create an offensive Miraculous Item, his doorbell rang.
After putting away the Relics, Chen Li got up and opened the door. Outside stood a pretty blonde girl wearing a red hat, her thighs wrapped in black stockings. She gave Chen Li a gentle smile.
"Tonghua, why are you here?" Chen Li asked after greeting her.
"I heard you were bullied at the school gate this afternoon, so I came to ask whether you want me to kill his entire family," the blonde girl asked.
"No. Goodbye." Chen Li slammed the door shut with a bang.
However, when Chen Li turned back toward the living room, he saw the blonde girl again. She was now sitting where Chen Li had been sitting.
"..." Chen Li was not surprised by the situation at all. He only felt powerless.
"After all this time, Xiao Li, you're still as naive as ever. Do you really think I can't get in just because you closed the door?" The blonde girl raised her head and teased Chen Li.
"This isn't naivety. It's the last shred of stubbornness when facing an Evil God," Chen Li emphasized.
Do not be fooled by how beautiful this blonde girl was. She was an Evil God.
The Local Evil God Was Far Too Polite!
Not all Evil Gods looked indescribable. Some were beautiful too. After all, the times were progressing.
The one standing before Chen Li was named the Tonghua Evil God. She could draw power from fairy tales and was an Evil God encompassing concepts.
For that reason, her appearance seemed to be a fusion of the traits of the most classic female characters from fairy tales.
Blonde hair, cuteness, innocence... she was seemingly the culmination of every fairy-tale heroine. When meeting her for the first time, people simply could not muster any effective vigilance.
All her abilities came from fairy tales. The special method she had used to enter Chen Li's home without him noticing was likely an ability recorded in some fairy tale, rather than a Space Ability.
Moreover, she could freely transform into fairy-tale figures: Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, The Little Match Girl... or even an utterly ordinary passerby.
Therefore, before she was willing to reveal herself, you could never tell which person by the roadside she was impersonating.
