Chapter 35 - Just Bear with It, I'll Be Done Soon!
New Event: Global Dungeons Daily Releases
After looking at the equipment blessings…
Ye Mo clicked on "Dungeon Territory," a newly appeared option.
——————————————————
Detected that you have an unassigned dungeon: Minotaur's Lair
Set up its dungeon?
[Yes] [No]
——————————————————
Ye Mo immediately chose "Yes."
A huge terrain map, like a projection, instantly entered Ye Mo's mind.
At this moment, he was like playing a creation-type game.
The upper right corner of the map displayed the number of wild monsters in various locations, the BOSS room, and so on.
——————————————————
[This dungeon has become your territory. If players from other factions die here, they can provide Divine Points for you. (Settled daily)]
[Minotaur's Lair]
[Dungeon Type: Crusade]
[Level Restriction: 20~30]
[Difficulty: A-Rank]
[Player Clearance Probability: 40%]
[Consume 500 Divine Points to enhance with divine power, increasing the dungeon difficulty to S-Rank. (Player Clearance Probability: 15%)
Consume 1000 Divine Points to implant a God Servant Larva to guard it, increasing the dungeon difficulty to SS-Rank. (Player Clearance Probability: 6%)]
[Note: After the God Servant matures, the dungeon difficulty will advance to SSS-Rank. (Player Clearance Rate: 0.5%)]
——————————————————
"This dungeon actually consumes Divine Points to increase its difficulty?"
Ye Mo was speechless!
However, as long as players failed to conquer it, it could provide Divine Points for him.
It was equivalent to a daily, continuous income.
The kind where you could make money while lying down.
"Let's see how much this dungeon can earn in a day first. No rush to upgrade it for now."
Ye Mo prepared to look at its income first, and then he would consider whether to upgrade it or not.
He was also preparing to save 2000 Divine Points to bestow a "God-Tier" ability on himself when he advanced to Tier 2.
After some simple exploration, Ye Mo bestowed the new Class Card on his main body.
After returning to reality, he opened the "Equipment Crafting" option on the Agent page.
A cauldron instantly appeared in front of Ye Mo.
At the same time, his personal information regarding forging appeared in the upper right corner.
——————————————————
Current Forging Level: 1 (The higher the level, the higher the success rate, and the higher the attribute range)
Experience: 0%
Forging Divine Skill: None
Note: For every successful crafting of a divine artifact, one Forging Divine Skill can be comprehended.
——————————————————
Because of its systemization, the manufacturing process was also extremely simple.
He just had to throw the corresponding materials in.
——————————————————
Ding! Detected that your current main material can create the following weapons: Scourge Divine Radiance Staff, Abyssal Demon Sword, Nether Cold Shield
——————————————————
According to Ye Xiaoxiao's class, Ye Mo clicked on the staff-type weapon.
The main attribute of a staff-type weapon was Spirit, which was undoubtedly the most useful stat for Ye Xiaoxiao.
——————————————————
[Scourge Divine Radiance Staff (Divine Artifact)]
[Main Material: Calamity Demon Bone (God-Tier)]
[Auxiliary Materials: Heavenly Dao Strange Stone *16, Outer Path Demon Abyss Grass *16]
[Success Rate: 30%]
[Equipment Billet Extra Bonus: 50% (Wood of the Divine Pillar)]
[Attribute Range: 30%~60%]
[Detected that you are missing auxiliary materials and cannot craft at this time. (Universal Materials can substitute for any auxiliary material)]
——————————————————
Ye Mo briefly checked the price of the auxiliary materials. One costs around 200,000?
And it was the kind with a price but no supply. Right now, only two were up for sale on Taotao Net.
"Even if I add my 30 Universal Materials, I'm still short of money!"
He looked at his balance.
A total of 400,000. After deducting Meng Li's 170,000…
He had 230,000 left.
It definitely wasn't enough for two auxiliary materials!
But on second thought, it was normal. Usually, the price of a finished divine artifact was around a hundred million!
Almost the same value as an SSS-Rank Class Card.
Even a Level 90 big shot might not necessarily possess a divine artifact.
"Sigh! Money flows like water... I'm poor!
After becoming an Agent, I earn a lot more now, but my expenses have gone up just as much.
All the more so because I want to focus on cultivating that spendthrift girl, Ye Xiaoxiao. It's just too expensive!"
Silently closing the system page, Ye Mo sighed helplessly.
The matter of crafting equipment should be put on hold for now.
At least until he raised the necessary money.
Looking at the sky, he found that it was already approaching early morning.
After a simple wash-up, he prepared to go and meet Jiang Linyue.
Time flowed like water, and years passed like a shuttle.
A few hours passed by in a rush.
Dou Dou Coffee Shop.
Inside a private room.
Jiang Linyue held a coffee cup while taking deep, nervous breaths.
The mission the magic crest gave her was to touch Ye Mo twenty times.
Honestly…
This was too difficult for Jiang Linyue!
Her experience with the opposite sex was as blank as a sheet of white paper.
Since she was little, her master had placed high hopes on her. She was either studying or on the way to study.
After graduation, she directly joined the Heavenly Dao Alliance, cultivating and entering dungeons day and night.
As for romance?
What was that?
She had never even heard of it!
"Calm down, calm down. He has already removed his two kidneys. Strictly speaking, he's not even a man anymore."
She took a deep breath to comfort herself, adjusting her mentality.
Knock knock knock!
Coincidentally, at this moment, a knock on the door of the private room sounded.
"Miss Jiang, I'm coming in."
Saying that, Ye Mo pushed open the door.
At a glance, he could see Jiang Linyue sitting on the sofa.
Her attire today was relatively sporty. Over a white sports camisole, she wore a white chiffon jacket.
Her skin was lustrous, fair, and tender. Her legs, visible under the sports shorts, were firm and powerful.
From Ye Mo's angle, he could even see the beautiful V-cut abs on her slender waist.
"Hello, please sit down."
She lightly tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and turned her face to look at Ye Mo, her breathing inadvertently quickening and her heartbeat accelerating.
Under the table, her fair, soft, and large thighs closed subconsciously.
"Here's the goods you wanted."
After Ye Mo sat down, Jiang Linyue took a deep breath.
After adjusting her mentality, she revealed a professional smile and took out several large bags of small blue potion bottles from her system backpack.
Looking at those simple packages, Ye Mo frowned slightly.
These blue bottles were clearly different from those on the market. Why did they look...
Like they were temporarily bulk-packaged?
"Can I inspect the goods first?"
"Huh? En, you can."
Jiang Linyue was clearly feeling a bit guilty, but she nodded her head while bracing herself.
After all, it was her first time selling fake goods.
Although these goods mixed with her private stock had almost the same effect as those on the market…
But the mental weight of doing something wrong and the fear of being caught remained.
Ye Mo casually picked up a small blue bottle and drank it directly.
[Mana +108]
"Hmm?"
Looking at the system notification, Ye Mo paused slightly.
'How could it give 8 extra points?'
'Forget it.'
At least the quality was up to standard. It was probably a semi-finished product rushed out temporarily, so the purity was inconsistent.
But it didn't matter, as long as the effect was more or less the same.
And the price of this batch of goods was also low, only about 80% of the market price.
"The goods are confirmed to be correct. Here's forty-four thousand in cash, please count it."
Ye Mo took out the cash from his briefcase and pushed it over.
"No need to count, I believe you."
Saying that, Jiang Linyue directly put the forty-thousand-plus cash into her handbag.
"Since the transaction is complete, I'll be going first."
Ye Mo packed up the several large bags filled with small blue bottles and prepared to get up and leave.
"Wait a moment!"
Seeing that Ye Mo was about to leave, Jiang Linyue became anxious on the spot.
Her mission wasn't completed yet. How could she let him go back just like this?
"Is there anything else?"
Ye Mo stopped his steps and turned his head to look at her suspiciously.
"Uh... Um... You... haven't confirmed the quantity of the goods yet. How about you count it?"
"Psh! A small matter. I believe in your character, Saintess."
Saying that, Ye Mo turned around again.
"No, you... You stop right there!"
Jiang Linyue's voice suddenly rose. In her urgency, she reached out and grabbed Ye Mo's wrist.
Yelp~
With her contact with Ye Mo, Jiang Linyue felt like her whole body was being electrocuted.
Her breathing became rapid and her heartbeat accelerated.
An indescribable side effect was released instantly.
This caused Jiang Linyue to lose control of her strength, directly pulling Ye Mo’s entire body over.
"What the hell?"
Ye Mo's body leaned back, and he fell right into Jiang Linyue's arms.
One of them was sitting, the other lying down, their eyes meeting.
Jiang Linyue was sitting, while Ye Mo was like a little woman, lying in the young girl's arms like a delicate bird.
After coming to her senses, Jiang Linyue had just recovered from the strong side effect…
But upon seeing this scene, a blush couldn't help but appear on her pretty face.
'Damn it!'
'Since it's already like this, I might as well just...'
She gritted her teeth and went all out!
Reaching out with her slender hand, she began to search Ye Mo's body directly.
——————————————————
[Magic Energy Value +1]
[Magic Energy Value +1]
[Magic Energy Value +1]
[Mission Progress: 1/20]
[Mission Progress: 2/20]
...
[Ding! Critical Hit triggered!]
[Magic Energy Value +10]
——————————————————
"Very good! The mission is almost complete."
Jiang Linyue's eyes lit up, and she immediately sped up her hands.
'Holy crap?'
'Holy crap!?'
Ye Mo was startled!
His eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at this pure and noble Saintess in front of him.
He felt like his brain had crashed a bit.
'Is this still the Jiang Linyue I know?!'
'In the dream, you weren't like this at all!'

A/N - Off-topic: To prevent some readers from not understanding, let me emphasize here.
God-tier materials and Universal Materials are both scarce goods with a price but no market.
They are the kind that you can't necessarily buy even if you have money.
So at this stage, the protagonist cannot sell the Universal Materials and then use the price difference to supplement the God-tier materials.
Unless he spends time squatting and waiting.

Challenge Goal 1 (Part 2) (In Progress)
Objective: React to the daily announcements in the novel’s discord channel (here)
Progress: 6 to 10 unique reactions (3/6-10)
Or
18 to 30 total reactions (3/18-30)
——————————————————
T/N - We have a new reactor for the Challenge Goal. Please welcome DarkpurpleJackdaw! FYI, I’ll also count your reactions for day 6 and 7 since they are still within the 3 day rule. So you currently have 3 reactions. Keep going! Same for the others too! If Joseph can also react again, then you only need 2 more people to get that extra chapter! 😁 (3/5/26)
Well thanks for clarifying Mr. Author. Still, hot damn, that last scene… So Jiang Linyue just ended up groping the MC. I wonder how he’ll interpret it?
Also, are those potions really mixed with her bathwater or something? I hope it's blood instead. If it’s that or something like sweat, or maybe even… You know what? Maybe I should stop this train of thought here. 😅
