"So many?!" Zhou Bai was shocked. "How can there be so many?"
Zhao Shouyi said, "Don't be surprised. This is related to Thunder Sound Temple's cultivation method. Thunder Sound Temple is best at using wish power. It has its advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that once you succeed, your cultivation speed will be faster, and your martial arts will be more powerful.
But the disadvantage is that it's easier for you to go crazy and be coerced by the will of the people. "
Zhou Bai frowned. "Coerced by the will of the people? Is it like Kongzen's Great Sun Dharma Body, manipulated by the will of the people? "
Zhao Shouyi said, "Kongzen is an extreme phenomenon. Ordinary Thunder Sound Temple cultivators, while not as exaggerated, are also restricted by the wish power. According to the amount of wish power used, they can't go against the will of the people. The more they use, the more they can't go against it.
Joining the Sky Demon and becoming Sky Demon's spy is something the Thunder Sound Temple cultivators can't do. "
"I see." Zhou Bai's eyes moved. "So the Sky Demon infiltrating North Sea City wants to change the will of the people by corrupting the lower class. They want to infiltrate the entire city from the bottom up."
Zhao Shouyi nodded. "So don't worry. While there are many spies in North Sea City, most of them are ordinary citizens who have been tempted and won't do much. As long as the higher-ups of Thunder Sound Temple are fine, they can be suppressed. And they are constantly thinking of all kinds of countermeasures. "
Next, under Zhao Shouyi's guidance, Zhou Bai picked a bunch of cultivation and healing pills from Thunder Sound Temple and Supreme Sword Pavilion for his cultivation.
After choosing, Zhou Bai asked with anticipation and nervousness, "How about going to the front lines?"
Zhao Shouyi glanced at him and smiled helplessly. "I've already started arranging it for you. You'll have to change your identity and disguise yourself."
"Okay, okay, no problem." Thinking about going to the battlefield and killing the Sky Demon, Zhou Bai became excited.
Zhao Shouyi said, "Alright, I'm done here. I'll bring the things over for you. You can go and see Zen Master Yin Hai now. He wants to see you."
Zhou Bai nodded. Suddenly, he remembered the points that he had just won and destroyed. He quickly asked, "By the way, can I use these points in the Thunder Temple?"
Hearing Zhou Bai's words, Zhao Shouyi quickly slapped his head. "If you didn't mention it, I almost forgot. We've already helped you open the exchange authority for points in Beihai, Donghua, and Xiyue cities. You can exchange for resources at any time in these three cities."
After the two of them were done chatting, Zhao Shouyi brought Zhou Bai away from the guest house. They went to meet the most senior cultivator in North Sea City, Zen Master Yinhai, who had once obstructed Immortal Brightmoon.
Zhou Bai thought to himself, Zen Master Yinhai should know a lot of secrets, right? Perhaps I can turn back time and ask him about the secrets of Cristina, the Celestial Court, and the Sky Demon. Let's see if he knows. '
…
In a dark underground space, there were tangled tree trunks, grass, and trees everywhere.
Zhou Bai released his primordial spirit to explore the area. He could only sense a large number of abnormally dense withered trees on both sides of the road.
These withered trees looked pitch-black, and their trunks were twisted to the extreme. They looked like ghosts hidden in the dim light. Just a few glances at them would make people feel irritated.
When Zhou Bai's gaze swept across one of the withered trees, it seemed to suddenly tremble as if it had come to life.
He couldn't help but say, "Zen Master Lawless, these withered trees …"
Hokkaido School's headmaster, Zen Master Lawless, said, "They're all transformed by Uncle-Master Yin Hai after he transformed. He's currently suppressing them. Although they look a little strange, they're not dangerous yet."
Zhou Bai nodded and followed Zen Master Lawless and Zhao Shouyi deeper into the forest.
Not long after, a huge black shadow appeared in front of them.
The shadow looked hazy, and it was about a hundred meters tall. When they got closer, they saw that it was a headless Buddha carved from wood.
The Buddha's body was covered in cracks and stains. It looked like it had been abandoned for a long time.
But the strangest thing was the neck of the Buddha statue. There was no head above the neck, and the broken part was uneven, as if it had been torn off by something. There was also a large dark brown stain at the broken part, which looked like bloodstains.
Zen Master Lawless came to the foot of the headless Buddha and called out, "Uncle-Master, I've brought Zhou Bai here."
Zhou Bai looked at the Buddha in shock. He saw the chest of the headless Buddha change. The wood rose and fell, and then it turned into a face full of wrinkles.
The Buddha looked at Zhou Bai and laughed. A wave of primordial spirit swept through the air, forming a vibration. It laughed and said, "You're here, little friend. You did well in the Four Schools Tournament. "
"Zen Master Yinhai." Zhou Bai bowed and asked, "Why did you call me here?"
Zen Master Yinhai said, "I will die one day. In the fight against the Sky Demon, our generation … has suffered a crushing defeat." He sighed and said, "Whether it's me or the others, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold on for much longer. You are the strongest of the younger generation. The future of humanity depends on you. "
Zhou Bai felt the atmosphere around him become heavy. He nodded and said, "I understand."
Zen Master Yinhai asked, "How is Jiaojiao?"
Zhou Bai said, "The Great Elder is in good condition. He can curse and sleep. I think he can live for another few hundred years."
Zen Master Yinhai said, "Hehe, it's good that he can live. It was only after I became deformed that I realized how beautiful life is and how precious it is. It was only after all my brothers and sisters were sacrificed that I realized how tiring and bitter life is. Everything is impermanent. The continuation of life is always accompanied by pain … "
Hearing Zen Master Yinhai continue to speak, Zen Master Wu Ya interrupted him and said, "Uncle, didn't you say you have something for Zhou Bai?"
"Yes, I would have forgotten if you hadn't mentioned it." Zen Master Yinhai paused and said, "Zhou Bai, you offended Ming Yue and attracted the attention of countless people. Your future path of cultivation will be more dangerous than that of ordinary people. Unfortunately, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to see you reach the peak. "
As he spoke, Zhou Bai and the others felt the ground beneath their feet shake. A black lotus broke through the ground and bloomed in front of Zhou Bai.
Zen Master Yinhai said, "This is a World Cleansing Black Lotus that I condensed using the power of wish. After you refine it with your primordial spirit, you can die in my place once."
Zhou Bai looked at the black lotus in front of him with shining eyes. He suddenly remembered that he had the Time Reversal Gem. He thought for a moment and said, "This thing is very precious, right? Wouldn't it be more useful if I gave it to some high-level cultivators? "
Zhou Bai looked at Zhao Shouyi and said, "Principal, why don't I give it to you? Your extra life is much more useful than mine. "
Zhao Shouyi smiled and shook his head. "Zhou Bai, thank you. Just accept it. You're going to the frontlines next. With the protection of the World Cleansing Black Lotus, you'll be safer. "
