[Survival Points: 6050]
Looking at the number of Survival Points he had earned, Zeng Mo felt much happier than Yu Lin.
Yesterday, he had only had a little over a hundred points. He'd never imagined that he'd be just 3,950 points away from the Gate of Divinity, and that he could try drawing again.
"I'm only 3,950 Survival Points short. Should I just go ahead and draw?"
Zeng Mo thought for a moment, then raised his head to look at the sky.
The sun was setting.
As evening fell, the sky gradually darkened.
"It's getting dark."
"All the nearby first-time draws have already been claimed."
"Forget it. I'd better go home and make dinner. I'll try again tomorrow. There's no rush to earn more Survival Points."
Once he'd made up his mind, Zeng Mo hurried home.
It would take about forty minutes to walk back from the Gate of Divinity.
Along the way,
Zeng Mo chatted with Shadow while they walked, so he didn't find the journey boring.
When they got home, he chatted with Yu Lin on WeChat for nearly an hour. Then he took a quick shower, made some simple food, and entered his own divine realm.
He lowered himself slightly and looked down.
Soon,
His gaze pierced through layer upon layer of darkness until he reached his divine realm.
At that moment, it was nighttime in his divine realm.
In the forest, in a region he'd named Bastet,
he looked at the enormous, humanoid figures in every corner. Seeing the creatures gather together filled him with a sense of accomplishment.
The next moment,
Zeng Mo shifted his gaze toward the divine temple.
In front of the temple's great doors,
Little White was lying beneath a statue of a tall, majestic wolf. Its big, watery eyes kept glancing toward the tightly shut temple doors, and it seemed to have realized that its master wouldn't be coming out anytime soon.
Seeing this, Zeng Mo withdrew his attention. He set the Gate of Divinity's coordinates to the divine temple, then teleported there, opened the doors, and stepped outside, appearing beside Little White.
As soon as Little White saw Zeng Mo walk out of the divine temple, it eagerly ran over and barked.
"Woof!"
"Missed your master, huh?"
"Woof."
"Look what your master brought you."
Zeng Mo smiled and spoke. With a thought, he took Little White's dog food and toys out of his inventory and set them in front of the wolf statue. "From now on, you can sleep in here."
"Woof."
Little White gave a slightly uncertain bark, but seemed delighted.
"Hahaha, you really like sleeping in here, don't you?" Zeng Mo laughed, took out a bag of dog food, filled Little White's bowl, and said, "Eat up, then get some sleep."
"Woof!" Little White barked excitedly and immediately started eating.
Zeng Mo turned and headed into the forest.
Soon, he reached the forest. The little black wolf, who had been resting beneath a statue, suddenly woke up. It gave a loud yelp, sprang to its feet, and ran over to Zeng Mo, wagging its tail as it nuzzled against him.
"Hahaha, you missed your master too. You must be hungry, right? Come on, eat some meat, then sleep."
Zeng Mo smiled and stroked the little black wolf's head. With a thought, he took a bag of meat out of his inventory and set the bowl of meat in front of it.
The other wolves also perked up as soon as Zeng Mo appeared and looked at him.
They stared at Zeng Mo as he filled their bowls with meat.
In an instant, the pack swarmed around him, their eyes gleaming as they barked excitedly. They lined up their bowls and ate their meat.
"Hahaha, take your time. There's plenty."
Zeng Mo smiled as he watched the wolves eat. Once he was sure they had enough, he refilled their bowls and headed for the Emerald Valley. He wanted to use his own hands to open a stone coffin as large as a bus.
The huge stone coffin was covered in white jade.
Zeng Mo had gone to the warehouse to retrieve the food earlier. He'd opened a crack in the stone coffin and glimpsed the white jade inside. Then he'd resealed the coffin, which held the jade, and opened the divine realm, preparing to sleep and meet Yu Lin, who would be returning from her ancestor's home, early the next morning.
The next day, the sound of an alarm rang out.
Still half-asleep, Zeng Mo opened his eyes and walked out of the bedroom. He glanced at the wolf's eyes on the door for a moment.
In an instant, a young woman appeared before him.
The young woman wore a short white suspender dress that accentuated her figure. Her curvy body was alluring and graceful.
Her left and right shoulders were as fair as snow. Her collarbones were delicate, and not a single flaw marred her skin. Her slender, elegant figure made her seem both captivating and alluring, while also revealing a woman's unique charm and power.
Zeng Mo's mouth went dry.
When he saw Yu Lin, he woke up completely. He quickly opened the door.
His eyes fell on her long, fair legs. The high slit in her dress revealed them fully, perfect as if sculpted by a master, giving the young woman a distinctive, beguiling charm.
"Hubby." Shadow smiled.
Zeng Mo wrapped his arms around Shadow's soft, slender waist. "Wifey, why'd you get back so soon? Weren't you going to spend the whole week at your uncle's?"
"Mm-hmm, guess."
"You came back early."
"Mm-hmm! Hubby, were you planning to stay outside all week with Yu Lin?"
Zeng Mo said nothing. He picked Shadow up in his arms, closed the door, and carried her straight to the bedroom.
"Ah, hubby, it's still early. You've only just woken up..."
Yu Lin sighed.
An hour later.
[The host's physical condition is weak, but their divine power is exceptionally strong. They used one thought to destroy a Tier 3 Undead divine servant. Survival Points +200.]
"..."
Zeng Mo was stunned.
[The host's divine might is formidable. They destroyed three Tier 3 Undead divine servants. Survival Points +200.]
After another two hours, the sound of an alert rang out again. Zeng Mo glanced at the system notification, satisfied.
"Two hundred Survival Points for killing three divine servants. That's another two hundred. I didn't expect the result of yesterday's attempt to draw someone over here to make my wife wait outside all night."
"I wonder if there's some other way to earn Survival Points that I haven't discovered yet."
Zeng Mo thought of Yu Lin, and his mind began wandering again.
"Ah, hubby, it's still early..."
Another hour later.
With Shadow begging him to stop, Zeng Mo finally finished and went to wash up. Then he came out to make breakfast.
By the time breakfast was ready, it was already noon.
"Wifey, come out and eat."
Zeng Mo called out as he walked to the bedroom door. He saw Shadow leaning against a pillow with a blanket over her, her hands resting on it as she typed a message.
"I'm talking to my cousin." Zeng Mo asked curiously.
Yu Lin raised her head. Her clear, charming eyes looked at him, and she parted her lips slightly. "Hubby, didn't you say you wanted to get some white jade? My uncle asked me to go out and do something."
"Let's eat breakfast together first, then we'll go."
Zeng Mo thought for a moment.
"Okay. I'll take a shower. You eat first." Shadow spoke as she got out of bed. Her figure, which the blanket had hidden, was revealed again as she walked toward the bathroom.
[The host has high spiritual strength and a powerful body. You prayed to the mighty divine servant, and its true clan granted you a peaceful hour of rest. Survival Points +10.]
Suddenly, another alert sounded in his ears.
Zeng Mo walked over to the window in front of Yu Lin and opened the curtains. After letting Shadow in, he turned to sit on the sofa and asked:
"Where's your uncle?"
"In the city center, at the World Trade Center."
"Let's go, then." Zeng Mo replied, opened the Gate of Divinity, and set the destination to the World Trade Center before hurrying there.
During the trip, Zeng Mo discovered a new way to earn points.
[The host moved quickly from place to place, and also possesses a powerful divine servant that has remained here. Survival Points +10.] [The host traveled through the prosperous commercial district without disturbing any believers, and encountered a Tier 3 Earth divine servant involved in your affair. Survival Points +1000.] [The host traveled down Fortune Avenue, and possessed the territory of a god of unknown rank as well as a Tier 3 Wood divine servant living here. Survival Points +1000.] [The host traveled through the botanical garden without disturbing the powerful, wise race hidden here. Survival Points +1000.]
