If the "Immaculate Scripture" had a mouth, it would certainly gasp in astonishment.
Then sigh with admiration, "This child, terrifying indeed!"
In the Four Reversals Sect, the seat of power over all affairs is firmly occupied by the Sect Leader blessed by the fifth supreme deity, the Blood Martial Saint.
However, due to repeated battles seven times at Heaven-Reaching Peak with the top figure from the Five Directions Emperor Palace, ending in five draws and two defeats, he suffered considerable injuries.
He had no choice but to undergo reincarnation and cultivation anew, remaining dormant for nearly a hundred years.
The authority for decision-making now falls to the Vice Sect Leader and the two Left and Right Protectors, followed by the four Spirit Communication Scriptures.
They essentially belong to the miraculous treasures born from the void, possessing an unbelievable, against-the-norm trait.
Such as seemingly limitless containment of qi blood and divine soul, along with inexplicable transformations of integration and dissolution.
Even when seized by Divine Power Giants and perpetually suppressed.
They can still seize the opportunity, escape into the void, and leave freely.
This is the reason Chen Xing did not act personally.
Miraculous treasures can often only be guided by fortune, aligning with destiny.
As the saying goes, what is destined to happen will happen, what is not destined should not be forcefully pursued.
"If according to your idea, young brother, this ’Qi Blood Loan’ is issued from above and collected by us, what standards of approval and allocation are there?"
The "Immaculate Scripture" exercises some wisdom, posing a critical question.
"A systematic assessment framework can be established, where the congregation with exceptional talent and superior roots are ’potential stocks,’ worthy of significant investment.
While the affluent and highly positioned believers, such as Dragon Court Nobles and Royal Family, are ’blue-chip stocks,’ worth focusing on.
The Daoists and true heirs of other Upper Sect Major Schools are ’red-chip stocks,’ warranting attention, strategic alliances.
The rest are ’growth stocks,’ ’ordinary stocks,’ ’junk stocks,’ and so forth, which need not be detailed."
Bai Qi asked Nanming Li Fire to shave a few branches, resembling counting rods, arranging them by height and thickness.
"Truly vivid."
The "Immaculate Scripture" found it greatly beneficial, yielding much insight, when usually it overlooked and bestowed blessings upon a multitude of followers, it was taught a lesson today.
"The resonance brought me here, not for selecting talents for the sect... No, but for choosing the clear leader!"
Seeing the right timing, Bai Qi continued:
"I, merely an unsung talent, am willing to be the servant for Brother Jing Shu, taking on the role of business management. In my view, it would be wise to start testing with the lineage of Pimo King, gradually expanding.
The fifty years of cultivated power refined just now, honestly speaking, although ample in quantity, lack refinement, are mediocre in quality, akin to ’ordinary stock,’ with little upward momentum.
Such ’projects’ placed in the Qi Blood Loan are too low-tier, not recommended for continued investment."
The "Immaculate Scripture" deeply agreed, even though Mao Yichang received Pimo King’s favor, assisting him frequently in comprehending methods, cultivating the "Mysterious Spirit Method Seed Scripture," and He Mountain Dao Evil Technique, now barely climbing to Third Realm Great Success.
"Alas, young brother, you are unaware, that person... is a pawn used in the sect’s grand strategy, not easily discarded."
Bai Qi began his tactic, gently rubbing the stone scripture, like petting a cat, his soft tone carried a hint of inducement:
"Brother Jing Shu, you and I hit it off immediately, let me speak frankly. The widespread promotion of Qi Blood Loan and Divine Soul Loan, across the sect, who will be the greatest beneficiary?
It is only you, along with some other scripture brethren, who can accommodate an ocean-like vastness of qi blood and divine soul; you are the legacy of the Supreme Divine Spirit, able both to bless and seize.
Brother Jing Shu, miraculous treasures like you, without special opportunities, might fortunately never advance over millennia...
But now, with everyone like dragons and the Holy Sect prospering, it is a heaven-sent opportunity..."
The "Immaculate Scripture" abruptly rose in spirit, visualizing boundless qi blood and thoughts, entirely residing within itself, envisaging a time when the Vice Sect Leader and Left and Right Protectors watch its face.
How wonderful!
"Curious, I don’t need to eat, but inexplicably feel a sense of fullness, why is that?"
Bai Qi pressed onward, further encouraging:
"The Holy Sect’s millennial endeavor is all upon Brother Jing Shu you, can’t be slackened.
Let’s do this, Brother, lead me to see that person, give him a potential assessment."
The "Immaculate Scripture" was filled with anticipation of jointly commanding the Four Reversals Sect with other scriptures, suppressing the haughty Vice Sect Leader, and disregarding the arrogant Left and Right Protectors.
It increasingly felt confident, saw Bai Qi more pleasing, proposed the vision of "everyone like dragons," furthering the benefit of "achieving freedom in cultivation."
In this way, the Holy Sect is sure to thrive!
From now on, no longer be overshadowed by those of the White Sun Sect!
"Young brother, come with me!"
The "Immaculate Scripture" thought, truly found a treasure.
...
...
"I offered fifty years of cultivated power to Lord Wu Gou without regret, such devotion surely touched him, could further earn Pimo King’s favor, add another blessing!"
Mao Yichang’s divine soul was void, weak and feeble, but his heart was filled with satisfaction.
Originally a stray dog whose family was destroyed by enemies, even if Ninghai Zen spared him, in this life could only survive like a sewer rat, struggling and destitute.
No chance to shine or hold his head high!
Fortunately, with Pimo King’s assistance, he became the patriarch of the Mao Family, and advanced in status, enabling cultivation speed to increase daily, power similarly elevating.
Such grace is equivalent to rebirth.
"It is only natural for the weak to rely on the powerful."
Mao Yichang settled down with difficulty, contemplated that thriving method seed, constantly praising the divine shrine in his heart.
Originally feeble thoughts, like injecting water, expanded gradually, regained brilliance.
"Reverence for the gods offers many benefits. Regular Daoist cultivators focus on gathering divine soul thoughts, visualizing all things in heaven and earth, the sun, moon, and stars, then improve power through breathing in spirit energy.
But upon joining the Four Reversals Sect, relying on the seat of Pimo King, one only needs to devote body and mind in earnest praise, naturally incense gathers and generates, aiding my cultivation."
Mao Yichang’s thoughts fluctuated like the tide ebbing and flowing, while he was meditating in peak condition, suddenly heard "tap tap" footsteps echo in the dim, cramped Puzzle Cave.
His divine soul jolted in alarm, he instantly opened his eyes to look at the visitor.
A robustly built, solid young man!
The stone scripture flew through the air, closely followed behind, akin to a tail-wagging kitten or puppy, circling occasionally.
"You are..."
Mao Yichang felt inexplicably familiar, as if he had seen this person before.
Then shuddered, almost leaping up:
"That disciple of Ninghai Zen! You are called Bai..."
Bai Qi smiled warmly, gently interrupted:
"I am merely the business manager for the Four Reversals Sect’s blessing project, you may call me, Manager Bai."
