“…”
“Dad, you’re babbling about mystic stuff again, all that Circulation Qi and Qi Observation Skill, and something about numerous kinds of Qi etc. You’ve been reading too many novels, haven’t you?” Ji Shan said with a hint of helplessness in his tone.
“But since you’ve remembered it all, we’ll have an easier time.”
“It’s just swearing an oath to the lamp, I’m with you.”
“Let’s go out and find some temporary work, it’ll make things a bit easier when we get to Mirror City,” Ji Shan suggested.
...
“Forget about temp work, there seems to be a serial killer prowling around lately, and we don’t lack that thousand or eight hundred bucks so much that it’s worth risking our lives for,” Qin Muye dismissed Ji Shan’s idea.
“Hmm, got it. I’ve always had a good memory since I was little, oh, the irritating talent of never forgetting what I see,” Ji Shan bragged paradoxically.
“What plans do you have for the holidays?” Qin Muye saw that Ji Shan fell silent and leisurely sat back in his chair and asked.
“Okay, it might indeed be a bit dangerous, but we can’t just do nothing, can we? There’s still over a month until school starts again, I can’t spend my whole day watching you swindle others,” Ji Shan was somewhat helpless too.
“You know, talking like that can get you killed, right?” Qin Muye felt the kid was getting carried away. Ji Shan had the talent of a strong memory, and never forgetting anything came naturally to him.
“You’ve remembered it all?” Qin Muye asked.
“What do you mean ‘swindle’? I’m providing psychological counseling and therapy. How does that turn into swindling when you say it?” Qin Muye said with a look of exasperation.
“If you said you provided psychological counseling and therapy ten years ago, I might’ve believed you, but now? Do you dare to swear to the sky?” Ji Shan rolled his eyes as he spoke.
“Although I’d like to say it’s indeed because I’ve read too many novels, can these eyes of mine really read novels?” Qin Muye said slowly.
“Heaven, not the lamp!”
“Whatever, as long as you remember it. These are just mediums after all,” Qin Muye said indifferently.
“Whether it’s about the novels or not, I’ve finally finished reading it,” Ji Shan said, putting the book back with a look of relief.

For instance, if a good person faced a bloody calamity and Qin Muye offered some advice that allowed them to avoid the disaster, he would gain merits.
It’s not that Qin Muye couldn’t bring himself to harm his own body, but rather… he didn’t have such bodily organs on his skin’s surface because he was no longer human inside, so the corresponding organs simply did not exist. Beneath Qin Muye’s skin was a terrifying abyss rather than flesh and bones.
Moreover, helping a wicked person escape disaster or aiding the tyrannical would result in a deduction of merits.
At this point, Ji Shan, although he had taken up the profession of a Qi Refiner, couldn’t utilize it.
Opening Ji Shan’s panel, the attached talents were few, but they were incredibly against the heavens.
Of course, the difficulty of assuming the profession was also quite high, as it demanded high understanding. It is estimated that in the entire world, perhaps only Ji Shan could meet Qin Muye’s requirements, and maybe the protagonist, Ji Wuming, with his full potential of flaws and deficiencies, could too. Others were true far away from reaching this level.
In light of this, Qin Muye also discovered something—that levels seemed to be unable to limit attributes, as even a Level 0 could possess strong attributes. It just took some time and required self-cultivation.
The other party seemed to have inherited Qin Muye’s disposition, liking to argue and tease, and occasionally could engage in nonsense talks with him.
And Emperor’s Gaze became even more domineering, adding 1 level to both talent and skill.
And if Qin Muye used the Art of Numerology to ruin a family of good deeds, leaving them destitute and in disarray, not only would he not gain any merits, but he would also be penalized.
The two of them joked and bantered for a while, as they had nothing better to do and it was a nice way to relieve their boredom.
Estimating that it would take another three to five years of perseverance, Ji Shan had been studying all these years to lay a strong foundation. Now that he had successfully taken up the profession, he naturally did not have to worry about the future.
Do good deeds and reap good rewards.
Fortunately, Qin Muye concealed his own temperament, so he appeared quite ordinary.
Although Ji Shan was trying to put out a fire, for some reason, the more he fought it, the bigger it grew, and it couldn’t be stopped at all; in the end, only a pile of ashes remained.
Being naturally intelligent, Ji Shan knew that the so-called “The Book of Changes” was written by Qin Muye word by word, and it wouldn’t be too much to call it the work of his heart’s blood, yet now it had been burnt to ashes.
The accumulation of merits was very slow indeed, for unlucky good people are not to be found everywhere.
Just the small amount of mana he could muster through meditation was truly insufficient; it was even less than the power he drew from the Underworld.
Seeing this scene, Ji Shan fell silent too. He didn’t understand why Qin Muye did it, but in the end, he recalled the memory in his mind. The entire “The Book of Changes” was quite complete and could be reproduced someday when there was time.
It might be because he was Level 0, so he hadn’t triggered them, and as for the four attributes, they were what Ji Shan had developed and trained over the years.
But he wondered why there was no reaction, and they seemed as if they were fake.
Unfortunately, it’s very difficult to bring into full play all the deficiencies and flaws. For example, the widowed and unmarried aspect is one male and one female, and Qin Muye had thought about spaying a chicken.

In truth, to activate the effects in advance wasn’t impossible—first, using the Qi Observation Skill from “The Book of Changes” to capture the Qi Mechanism, then entering the body with Qi Control and Divine Travel, and finally, cultivating Mana through Circulation Qi, would be considered an initiation into the Qi Refiner profession.
Qin Muye would rather have him cultivate into a Qi Refiner on his own instead of relying on “Lord Era”.
Qin Muye pulled out a lighter, and under Ji Shan’s puzzled gaze, he actually set the pile of books ablaze.
Over the years, Qin Muye had cultivated on his own, slightly increasing his strength by idling…
Mythical Level professions are unique existences and cannot be expanded en masse.
It was because of some evil cult’s disciple wandering nearby, and because Qin Muye was the protagonist, there were always various messy events happening around him.
Ji Shan looked oddly at the books in his hand that contained methods of Qi Refinement and Qi Control—was this a way of cultivation?
Although a Qi Refiner has only four skills, each one is extremely powerful, especially “The Book of Changes” divination and Qi Control and Divine Travel, allowing Ji Shan to gain 1 Professional Talent and 2 skills at level one, which is truly against the heavens.
Despite securing his place at Xuanqing College with top results and receiving several generous awards, he still needed to save money, as it indeed seemed his home was not very affluent. Therefore, he was hailed as a model student, like a golden phoenix flying out of a chicken coop.
His Qi Refiner system was very comprehensive, and if it weren’t for the fact that this profession was unique, Qin Muye would have wanted to pursue it himself.
He had always believed that “The Book of Changes” was compiled by his own father, and now, seeing this volume as the core manual, he was even more certain of it.
Also because Qin Muye was buying time, at least until Ji Shan grew up.
“The Book of Changes” divination, Qi Control and Divine Travel, Circulation Qi, Emperor’s Gaze.
Qin Muye knew some insider information about this incident; it was said to be a serial killer, but actually, it was more complicated.
This startled Ji Shan, who quickly leaped up, grabbed a basin to fetch water to put out the fire: “Dad, are you crazy? Why are you burning these books? These are all written by you.”
This made Qin Muye swear silently, leading to his being very discreet over the years. Otherwise, with his capabilities, he would have been causing chaos everywhere long ago.
All three points of merits gained over the years came from his mouth. Merits had to help people change their fate and required positive feedback; those with negative feedback would even deduct merits.
Over the years, he had handled quite a lot, and as long as they did not provoke him, he would turn a blind eye.
For those truly seeking their own demise, Qin Muye would see them off on their way and might even see their souls in the Underworld, ensuring they were utterly destroyed.
But this was at home; outside, Ji Shan exhibited the demeanor of a gentle and elegant male deity, with a Heavenly Person’s Appearance that made him very handsome and charismatic, unlike Qin Muye’s wickedly unrestrained villainous temperament. One could tell he was the serious and decent kind at a glance.
