Bai Xiaowen put away Ji Ran's Seven Strategies.
The two looked at the mountain scenery below Black Sky Peak and fell into a short silence.
It was Chen Rong who broke the silence first. "Are you leaving?"
Bai Xiaowen first nodded, then shook his head and said, "Black Sky Cult still has many remaining branches in the north. I plan to wait until these branches are destroyed and uprooted before leaving with the martial artists who are willing to follow me."
"Actually, the remaining branches of Black Sky Cult shouldn't be much of a hindrance …"
Chen Rong's cheeks blushed slightly, showing a hint of sweetness. "But, thank you anyway."
Bai Xiaowen: "???"
It seemed that Great Leader Chen had fallen into some strange imagination again.
But Bai Xiaowen had a reason to stay for a few days. After all, the epic-level mission [Destruction of Black Sky] required the uprooting of most of the branches of Black Sky Cult to be completed. Now, he had only destroyed the headquarters, and the mission completion notification had not popped up yet.
He could take advantage of this time to earn contribution points from Shangqing school and select a few dark gold spiritual materials from Shangqing school's treasury. He could go back and upgrade the territory's protective array in preparation for the war with Great Tang.
Of course, Bai Xiaowen had led the destruction of Black Sky Cult this time, so his contribution points in Shangqing school were already very high. He did not need to go out of his way to earn contribution points to exchange for several dark gold spiritual materials.
In the following time, Bai Xiaowen had the martial artists of Five Element Banners find the families of the martial artists who had sacrificed themselves and compensate them.
Most of the families of the martial artists who had sacrificed themselves refused to follow Bai Xiaowen to the overseas territory. They chose to take the spirit crystals and live the life of a rich man in Shaoxing Territory.
Bai Xiaowen could only persuade them to pay attention to their safety and keep a low profile. After all, two or three hundred spirit crystals was not a small amount. Even martial arts masters like Yun Zhongli and Zhao Wuji, who had forces to support them, would not be able to easily take out such a sum.
But seeing these family members' disapproval, Bai Xiaowen could not persuade them anymore.
You could not wake up a person who was pretending to be asleep, and you could not save a person who was seeking death.
Among the martial artists of the Five-Element Banners, there were 314 people who were willing to follow Bai Xiaowen to the overseas territory.
The remaining martial artists actually wanted to go as well, but they all had families and businesses in Shao Ding Plane, so it was hard for them to give up — — not every martial artist was willing to spend a few years on a deserted island to train hard in order to achieve a breakthrough in martial arts.
Bai Xiaowen did not insist. It was already good enough to have more than 300 people.
Finally, after the righteous alliance had removed two-thirds of the Black Sky Cult's strongholds, Bai Xiaowen received a notification.
[C + Level Epic Side Quest: Destruction of Black Sky completed. Completion rate: 77%.]
"Do you want to submit?"
The completion rate was not high, and Bai Xiaowen was mentally prepared for it. In order to achieve a high completion rate for this quest, he had to kill the Black Sky Hierarch himself, without the help of others. However, the current Bai Xiaowen did not have the strength to do so.
After submitting the mission, Bai Xiaowen received a follow-up notification.
"The C + Level Epic Side Quest: The Destruction of Dark Sky has been submitted. Mission evaluation is good. "
"You have received 210 Spirit Crystals."
"Your deeds have been recorded in Shao Ding Plane's history. You have received 2 Legend Points."
"You have received 1 Epic Level 2C Light Ball of Insight."
After Bai Xiaowen digested the series of notifications, he immediately became interested in one of the new terms.
"Legend Points? What's that? "
Bai Xiaowen immediately chose to look it up.
The Spirit Realm's laws gave a response: "Legend Points are Legend Points that evolvers obtain based on their outstanding performance while exploring the Spirit Realm. Accumulating Legend Points will allow you to obtain the favor of the relevant Gods, and obtain the powerful strength bestowed by the Gods. "
Bai Xiaowen: "!!!"
[Can I not take it? No, can I convert it into cash?]
Bai Xiaowen almost could not control himself and asked this question. He was cursing wildly in his heart.
I don't want to attract the attention of the Gods!
Who knows what the Gods are.
Also, my dad seemed to have specially reminded me not to become the Chosen One of the Gods …
Bai Xiaowen could not stop cursing in his heart.
For ordinary evolvers, Legend Points were something that they could only dream of. After all, the Spirit Realm's laws gave a very clear answer: "Obtain the powerful strength bestowed by the Gods." Even the officials said that it was powerful, so it was definitely not weak.
However, it was not necessarily the case for Bai Xiaowen.
After cursing wildly in his heart, Bai Xiaowen took a deep breath and entered his consciousness with his spiritual sense. He glanced at the "Epic Level 2C" Light Ball of Insight.
Although the Light Ball was relatively small, it was entirely amethyst and emitted a magnificent halo. It was obviously very pretentious.
"This thing … should have been used to advance The Art of War, but I've already mastered the first part of The Art of War, and the middle part has not appeared yet. I can't comprehend the middle part! After returning to the territory, I'll just invest in The Great Void Sutra. "
After making up his mind, Bai Xiaowen went to find Chen Rong and prepared to bid her farewell.
However, Bai Xiaowen did not see Chen Rong. A female disciple guarding the door told him that the Sect Leader was cultivating in seclusion and would not see any guests. However, she had left a few brocade boxes for Elder Lu.
Bai Xiaowen took the brocade boxes and opened them. A dark golden light came into view.
They were all dark gold spiritual materials with attributes of all five elements.
Bai Xiaowen was a little emotional, but he still did not want to accept Chen Rong's gift for free. He said, "Deduct these dark gold spiritual materials from my contribution to the sect."
The female disciple nodded. "The Sect Leader has already deducted them. Elder Lu still owes the sect a thousand. Remember to pay it back early."
Bai Xiaowen was speechless.
The female disciple was not affected by Bai Xiaowen's high charm at all. She looked straight ahead and said expressionlessly, "Elder Lu, is there anything else?"
"No, no …" Bai Xiaowen retreated in defeat. "Oh right, help me pass this wooden tablet to the Sect Leader."
This wooden tablet was made by Bai Xiaowen using the sovereignty of the White Phoenix Territory. The coordinates of the White Phoenix Territory were sealed in a piece of living spiritual wood. If something happened to the Shangqing school, they could rely on this wooden tablet to use a teleportation method to directly teleport to the White Phoenix Territory.
Over the past few days, Bai Xiaowen had already figured out that when he was in the territory, he had received Chen Rong's message from the wooden carving talisman. It was actually a coincidence and not a function of the wooden carving talisman itself.
The wooden carving talisman's communication was limited by distance. Under normal circumstances, it would not be able to reach the White Phoenix Territory.
Chen Rong's long-winded conversation with the wooden carving was just her way of venting her stress. She did not really think that she could summon Bai Xiaowen over.
Moreover, Bai Xiaowen's return to the Shao territory was also due to the wooden carving's positioning function.
Bai Xiaowen did not understand why there was such a situation.
The most likely reason was that the Black Sky Sect had joined forces with the Great Tang Territory to stir up trouble in the Shao territory, triggering some kind of protection mechanism of the Spirit Realm's rules. Therefore, the Spirit Realm's rules upgraded the wooden carving to a positioning item and transmitted Chen Rong's voice to let Bai Xiaowen join in to balance the situation.
If this was really the case, it meant that the Spirit Realm's rules did not wish for a situation where life was extinct. Therefore, it forcefully interfered with the alliance of the Black Sky Sect and the Great Tang Territory.
Of course, these were all unfounded. They were only reasonable conjectures made by Bai Xiaowen's wild imagination.
In any case, with the coordinates personally given by Bai Xiaowen, it would be easy for Chen Rong to ask him for help again. There was no need for the Spirit Realm's rules to interfere again.
After leaving the Shangqing school, Bai Xiaowen brought more than three hundred Jianghu martial artists and returned to Fenglingdu in the north of Tanzhou.
In his hands were the Spirit Crystals that these Jianghu martial artists had paid as "travel expenses". A total of seventy to eighty thousand Spirit Crystals were piled up into a small mountain in his storage bracelet.
Bai Xiaowen used the Lord's teleportation authority to teleport all these Jianghu martial artists to the White Phoenix Territory. He still had close to twenty thousand Spirit Crystals left. It could be said that it was a wave of fat. He happily embarked on the return journey.
