Infinite Professions

Chapter 397: Chapter 206: Transfer (Part 3)

By calculations, this scheme brought him multiple benefits.

His gains were not due to the Jinyang Prefect’s incompetence, nor the Civil Judge and Military Judge’s lack of wisdom, but because they were unaware that Shen Hex had a "cheating device." The critical information gap led them to make wrong judgments and choices.

Even the wise can err with unequal information.

...

As his subordinates packed up, Shen Hex studied the newly acquired Punishing Evil Divine Seal in the hall.

Punishment Department Assessor Magistrate, one of the Prefecture City God’s officials, Standard Sixth-Grade Official Position.

The Divine Seal was black, with restrained golden light, signifying law as iron, with the intent to punish evil and convict.

Like the Fertile Land Technique of the Earth God and the Mountain-Moving Skill of the Mountain God, this Punishing Evil god also possessed exclusive office divine arts.

Punishment Order: "Punish the evil of all beings, convict the sins of divine beings, Punishing Evil god uses the Power of Righteous Law to consolidate laws and decrees, suppress unlawful ones, evil ghosts, and spirits!"

Celestial-Commanding Sword: "Reward good, punish evil, act as the Celestial Dao, and when faced with heinous sinners, Punishing Evil god can wield the Celestial Dao Sword to execute their sins using the Power of Righteous Law!"

Punishment Order, Celestial-Commanding Sword!

These are the two main divine techniques of the Punishment Department Assessor Magistrate, capable of channeling the Power of Righteous Law to suppress offenders and even execute punitive actions.

This reminded Shen Hex of his own occupation as a [Celestial Traveler].

The inherent divine techniques of this Punishing Evil god and the Professional Power of the Celestial Traveler share a remarkable similarity, both capable of deploying the Power of Righteous Law to harm those burdened with karmic debts, and when confronted with villains, can launch a "big move," transforming into Celestial Punishment Asura and wielding the Celestial Punishment Sword.

This led Shen Hex to speculate on the essence of "profession."

Professional power, although mysterious, isn’t baseless and shares a connection with various laws and principles, possibly as an alternative manifestation of the "Great Dao."

The Great Dao is vast and varied, yet unified, so in this heavenly world, inevitably there are existences akin to Professional Power, this Punishing Evil god being one of them, sharing the way of righteous law with his [Celestial Traveler] occupation.

Although this information currently holds limited value, as Shen Hex’s current strength isn’t sufficient to delve into the essence of "profession," it provides him numerous ideas and directions.

He hid this insight in his heart and looked to the next development.

Dongping County City God!

This was the task given by Jinyang Prefecture, a checkpoint delaying him.

Shen Hex knew without thinking, that the Dongping County City God must have received instructions, prepared thoroughly, just waiting for him to assume office and engage in magical combat.

However, Shen Hex did not intend to go.

It’s not because he couldn’t win, but because it wasn’t necessary.

A Seventh Grade Little God isn’t worth his time.

If he acts, it shall be serious, taking on a True God.

As for whether he’s capable...

Honestly, Shen Hex had been somewhat repressed since arriving in this world.

Though farming is his specialty, and he has superb management skills, his lack of understanding of the fundamental law of Divine Dao leaves him at a disadvantage, mostly relying on Professional Power to support development and some strategies and tactics, without utilizing the foundation accumulated from multiple lifetimes of cultivation in Martial Dao and Immortal Dao.

Now things are different—even though fighting isn’t fundamentally rooted in Divine Dao understanding, Shen Hex’s vast experience allows him to transform and apply techniques with proficiency.

So in this regard, he is considerably strong; while he might not leap grades in battle, against a Sixth Grade True God of the same level, he is absolutely more than capable.

So then... who should be the first to face?
