Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely

Because he still had over a hundred thousand Yuan Force points, Tao Yu stayed for an extra half a month, mainly to integrate the forces of the Ming Cult and the elite of the six major sects as well as the grassland soldiers from both sides.

Initially, relying solely on Bo Yan and the people from the 104th Training Corps, it was only possible to keep them in check through the personal awe inspired by Tao Yu.

If he left for a long time, it was uncertain what would happen.

But now, with the addition of the followers of the Ming Cult and the elites of the six major sects, there was no doubt that things got much better.

Apart from a few exceptions like Zhu Chongba, the loyalty of the Ming Cult from top to bottom was truly unquestionable.

Now, faced with the great changes in the world, giants here, Tujue there,

he somehow managed to smooth things out in this half-a-month’s time.

"I’m not out to claim kingship or seek blindly obedient followers, I’m just preparing to make dividing the money easier when the time comes..."

Tao Yu’s needs were actually not that high.

Even with the current use of "Soul Transfer" combined with the "Taming Technique," he couldn’t ensure one hundred percent loyalty and reliability, so he wouldn’t bother with so many thankless tasks.

After all, absolute loyalty is a paradox—too hard to achieve. Close enough is good enough.

Four thousand grassland cavalrymen, already having sufficient military training, under the control of Ming Cult followers, would become an unmistakable force when equipped with firearms.

This was something even a million Yuan Force points couldn’t buy.

"I’ll be gone for a while, and in the meantime, it’s all on you. If you do well, when I return after dealing with the Titans, I might even make a trip to the grasslands."

Tao Yu looked at Zhao Min, who was meekly standing by his side.

This little demoness was capable, but even though he had implanted a mental seed in her, Tao Yu still didn’t trust her.

In comparison, Cheng Lixue, who could communicate telepathically, was far more reliable.

However, unfortunately, Cheng Lixue was too simple, a naïve female hero incapable of handling such a big situation.

Therefore, in the end, Tao Yu let Fu Youzhi assist, Zhao Min provide strategies, and Cheng Lixue make the final decisions.

Yang Guo was smart too, and together with Armin as Cheng Lixue’s counsellor at her side, they generally managed to create a balanced situation that was unlikely to cause any issues in the short term.

"Really, do I have to see your heart laid open before I can trust you?"

Zhao Min’s expression was coquettish and captivating, her beauty and cuteness beyond description, and her tone was tender and soft, seemingly carrying a hint of resentment.

"Stop that act in front of me."

Tao Yu didn’t care whether Zhao Min was sincere or not, as long as she was willing to work steadily, he could treat her as genuine.

"Hmph, there will come a day when I’ll make you believe," Zhao Min said spiritedly, her eyes swirling mischievously as if pondering something.

"Safety first, don’t take too many risks hunting Titans. This trip south is mainly to support Xiangyang, focusing on defense. I’ll come as soon as I’ve finished my business."

"I understand, don’t worry, I guarantee not a hair will be harmed on the heads of the important ones," Zhao Min assured.

Tao Yu always felt that the more dominant he was, the more excited she seemed to become; it felt weird... perhaps Zhao Min was a masochist.

...

"Climbing Zhongnan, going to the Western Regions, even participating in the siege of Bright Summit by the six major sects, it seems like I’ve been through a lot, but in reality, most of the time was spent on the road..."

Tao Yu arrived at a room on Bright Summit, seemingly letting out a sigh.

Starting from Shaolin, it had been almost two months on the road. In fact, resolving the problems was really fast; the integration afterward took less than twenty days.

"I need to find some way to get something that can fly, preferably like the wealthy young lady’s."

Tao Yu pondered in his mind.

But that thing would certainly be expensive!

This made Tao Yu turn his attention to another of his skills.

Corpse Refining Art.

This ability required an initial two thousand five hundred Deification points, and fifty thousand for the second Deification!

Even for the skill-based techniques, Tao Yu had only a few like Flicking Finger Magic and Dragon’s Regret queued up for consideration, and those were relatively low priority. The purely external power of the Corpse Refining Art initially held little interest for him.

But now, traveling was too problematic. Without the ability to fly, he would spend most of his time on the road upon entering the Abyss.

"Sigh, it probably has something to do with the advantages I’m aware of, so I have a clear goal. A regular Pioneer would likely spread their net slowly and widely and wouldn’t have such a great need," Tao Yu sighed internally, but it was precisely for this reason that his profits were so high!

"Still, even with a second Deification of the Corpse Refining Art, it’s not certain I could find non-human creatures. The most reliable thing would still be a flying device. If I can’t afford the same model, maybe a cheaper one could suffice? I’ve integrated a lot of dojo masters here, and I wonder if Sun Shiqing has visited Shaolin Temple in this time..."

As Tao Yu reached this point in his thoughts, he also chose to return.

...

Sizzle~

As Tao Yu re-emerged, what met his eyes was his room, which had undergone a complete makeover. The walls were now wooden panels, and the bed had been crafted out of solid wood, even fitted with a soft mattress.

The windows had all been replaced with glass, allowing a view of the gray, overcast sky.

"Hmm?"

Returning this time gave Tao Yu a slightly different feeling than before.

He felt a faint pressure on his body.

Although it wasn’t strong, Tao Yu indeed sensed a slight constraint.

"Eh? Is this the protection of the present world? I didn’t expect I could actually touch a hint of it already, though it’s still not obvious. Does this mean my strength could be considered quite formidable now..."

Tao Yu felt somewhat emotional.

In many of the Abyss’s fragmented worlds, there were also restrictions from their own world’s will, and even more so in the present world.

It was probably meant to reduce the damage to the present world, the stronger one was, the stronger the constraint one would face.

Tao Yu had always thought such matters were far from him, but he didn’t expect to feel it upon returning home today!

"But for now, it’s just a feeling, it has no impact on me yet, I’m still not strong enough."

Tao Yu merely moved his hands and feet slightly and adapted completely. In fact, his strength now was such that going all out in the present world would hardly be affected.

This world’s will constraint felt to Tao Yu like ’air resistance’.

The faster one went, the more significant the effect, you could feel it when sprinting a hundred meters, and there were different levels of resistance for cars, planes, and rockets.

Strength still begets strength, but the stronger one was, the greater the cost. Tao Yu felt that for him now, it was like the wind resistance one faces when walking.

It existed, but it was negligible.

Tao Yu stepped out the door and saw his father, Tao Long, chatting with a neighbor at the door.

On the other hand, his third brother, who was always at home, was nowhere to be seen.

Considering the time, he should have fully recovered and started working with the security team.

It was somewhat unexpected to run into his father again.

"Little Seventh is back, huh? It’s been almost three months this time."

When Tao Long saw Tao Yu, a look of joy appeared on his face.

"Are you off work again today?"

"Hey, I don’t know what our captain found out, but now he’s assigned me a really easy job, and I’ve got a lot more vacation time."

Tao Long grinned, his income had increased quite a bit!

Now, he alone was earning five hundred Yuan Force a month, and the key was that it was easy.

"Your mom too, she’s gone to help with the kids at your fourth brother’s place."

Tao Yu also had a moment of realization upon hearing this.

Ever since his Grade A talent had been revealed, his parents’ jobs had already become much easier and safer, with no more worries about being cannon fodder.

Tao Yu was considering finding them even more comfortable jobs after moving to the Inner City.

He didn’t expect things to have already changed in this way.

"I’m planning to find an opportunity to move to the Inner City. I can now apply for a quota for you guys. What do you think?"

As soon as Tao Yu finished speaking, the nuts in Tao Long’s hand dropped to the ground, his face a picture of astonishment.

"Move, move to the Inner City? Now? Isn’t that a bit too soon?"

Tao Long, who had gradually gotten used to his son’s miraculous abilities, was once again feeling uncomfortable.

Inner City!

From the perspective of the mud-legged dwellers of the Outer City, it was a place where even the air was filled with sweetness; many would take pride in just obtaining a temporary work card that allowed them to enter during the day to work!

After Tao Yu’s talent was discovered, Tao Long had felt that his son, with his Grade A talent, would definitely be able to move to the Inner City.

If things went smoothly and with a bit of luck, maybe he too could visit the Inner City within his lifetime.

But to think that in less than a year, you’re talking about moving in?

What exactly did you manage to get on that side this time?

"This... the expenses in the Inner City are too great, and forcibly moving in wouldn’t be affordable. Let’s continue to live here for now; it’s comfortable. You should prioritize improving your strength and not always think about saving money."

Tao Long ultimately forced himself to dispel that tempting thought, sighing deeply before giving Tao Yu heartfelt advice.

Strength is the real capital!

"Let’s leave it at that for now, I have some matters to handle, and we can talk about it later."

Seeing the gaping mouth of the chattering neighbor next to him, Tao Yu didn’t dwell on the matter any further. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

After staying for half a month longer and continuously accelerating his training, he now had less than seventy thousand Yuan Force left.

And because his meridians had been filled, he had to slowly widen them through meticulous effort, so the improvement was actually not as significant as when he initially invested tens of thousands of Yuan Force.

Fortunately, he had almost accumulated six months of dividends. Perhaps the little tycoon and her group hadn’t started yet, but there should still be something for Panda. He decided to first go to the mission hall to understand the situation and then figure out a way to contact the little tycoon...
