"Dragon Seeking Incense, Yama's Trigram."
Zhou Xuan bet everything on Yama's Trigram to enhance the Dragon Seeking Incense.
To break Yama's Trigram, tomorrow in the Gangfeng Cave, a dozen Yin Halls shall collectively perform a blood sacrifice to the Evil God. This has become crucial.
"I wonder if there are any plans to explore the Nine Snake God tomorrow, hope it doesn't delay my matters."
...
"Sister Yun, have you thought of a solution yet?"
Ah Wang urged Li Liuyun while they sat in the couple's seat at the Metropolitan hall.
"Let me think a bit more."
Li Liuyun replied.
She and Ah Wang discussed the strategy. Tomorrow, the Nine Snake God would descend on the great altar. According to their plan, Li Liuyun would escort Ah Wang to the altar, handing him over to the people of Liuyun Village,
then use the blood sacrifice method in their clan to offer Ah Wang as a sacrifice to the "Nine Snake God."
Ah Wang has the "Bone God's Index Finger," which he can use to escape. Before that, as long as he gets close to the Nine Snake God, he could help the High Priest pollute the Nine Snake God. But the problem is... how to willingly get the people of Liuyun Village to escort Ah Wang to the God Sacrifice Platform?
The sacrifice to the Nine Snake God isn't just any random living person.
"I've got an idea."
Li Liuyun said: "I'll tell the Clan Leader you're a Blood Well Spirit Communicator... Blood Well Spirit Communicators have always been the best sacrifices. Once the Clan Leader hears this, he'll definitely send you to the God Sacrifice Platform."
"Are you mad? Why don't you announce to the world that you're a Blood Well Spirit Communicator?"
Ah Wang had hidden his identity for many years, and now Li Liuyun suggested he expose himself outright?
Has it all been in vain?
"Times have changed. The High Priest has stated that he will protect the interests of Blood Well Spirit Communicators. Anyone who hunts Blood Well Spirit Communicators will be dealt with,
With the High Priest and Heavenly Venerate backing you, what are you afraid of?"
"It's not that I'm afraid of anything, but why don't you expose your identity yourself?"
Ah Wang repeatedly questions the same issue.
"You don't want to? Then there's no alternative."
Li Liuyun, also in a huff, said: "Without a top-tier sacrifice, you can't reach the God Sacrifice Platform or get close to the Nine Snake God,
Without getting close to it, even if the High Priest descends into your body, he can't use his powerful Perception to pollute the Nine Snake God."
"I'll think it over again."
Ah Wang also reconsidered.
Rather than thinking, it was more like reminiscing.
He remembered last night when the High Priest, in just a few minutes, found and swiftly killed Earth Tiger of White Tiger Village, then discreetly placed Earth Tiger's head in the inn,
Also recalling yesterday when Li Chengfeng persuaded City God Qingfeng to protect him and Li Liuyun among the many spectral spirits.
He relied on these memories to make the final judgment—whether the High Priest and Heavenly Venerate of the Blood Well Society were indeed strong enough to protect their Blood Well Spirit Communicators.
After thinking it over,
Ah Wang's thoughts finally wavered. He told Li Liuyun: "I think the High Priest and Scholar Li Chengfeng are strong enough to protect us,
but... the risk is still high."
Ah Wang said: "So, I can expose myself as a Blood Well Spirit Communicator and sacrifice myself to the Nine Snake God, but there's a prerequisite: I won't bear this risk without reason. I have one condition."
"What condition?"
"I know, your village rewards accomplishments. Finding a sacrifice for the deities means the clan elders will reward you with Snake God's Blood—from the Nine Snake God, which can help in understanding the natural law."
"After the matter is done, I'll give you half the Snake Blood."
"I'm taking on such a big risk just to split it half with you? I want seventy percent of the blood."
"Seventy percent?!"
"I won't agree to even one percent less." Ah Wang said.
"Seventy percent it is..." Li Liuyun gritted her teeth, agreeing.
"Don't try to cheat, or I'll report you to the High Priest and Heavenly Venerate."
Zhou Xuan himself didn't expect that because of his existence, the Blood Well Society had become a fair and absolutely safe trading place.
"Alright."
Li Liuyun said: "Then behave yourself tomorrow, today I'll first enjoy a storytelling session."
...
Zhou Xuan was storytelling again tonight in the Metropolitan, accumulating wish power must not stop, the Ancient Tree Golden Bell was still waiting eagerly.
"In this world, cultivation requires first practicing Qi, after which one establishes a foundation before entering the Immortal Gate, allowing one to establish a Foundation, and then form a Golden Core in the abdomen..."
While Zhou Xuan spoke, he glanced at the "Will Heavenly Book" suspended in mid-air. Today's "Will Heavenly Book," along with the wish power, had become more lustrous and smooth, and there was another peculiar sense —
— Zhou Xuan always felt that his master Yuan Buyu seemed to reside within the Will Heavenly Book, enjoying listening to his storytelling...
...
The night grew deep,
Zhou Xuan finished a long storytelling session, thanks to the radio and newspapers spreading his stories during the daytime, today's session nearly crammed the Metropolitan to the brim,
Finally, after the crowd dispersed, he found a quiet and deserted place and teleported back to Zhou Family's Jingyi Shop on East Market Street.
Inside the shop, Yun Ziliang was reading the newspaper under the lamp.
"Old Yun, today there's big news."
Zhou Xuan said.
"I know." Yun Ziliang didn't even lift his eyelids, saying: "Your tales have drawn tens of thousands to the streets. Any storyteller who reenacts your tale of Mortal Cultivation attracts an extraordinary number of viewers,
You're quite popular now, tonight's Metropolitan must be crowded."
"I'm not talking about that."
Zhou Xuan wasn't focusing on storytelling matters. He wanted to discuss something about Buddha Country with Yun Ziliang.
"The people of Buddha Country do indeed intend to invade our Jing Country massively, and they have no choice; if they don't succeed in infiltrating Jing Country, their Buddha Country in the Thirty-Three Heavens will completely collapse, leaving Buddha Country people to perish."
"What? Explain it in detail?"
Yun Ziliang prompted Zhou Xuan to explain thoroughly.
Zhou Xuan then carefully recounted the interrogation process from beginning to end.
After hearing it all, Yun Ziliang was even more surprised: "These Buddha Country people are clever, to know to place the channel in the Time Realm... At that place, people from the human world can only enter but not exit... Even if you know there's a channel inside the Time Realm, you can't do anything about the Buddha Country people."
"I think I can go to the Time Realm."
Suddenly, Zhao Wuya's voice came from the opening of the Jingyi Shop.
"What are you hollering about now?"
Yun Ziliang scolded Zhao Wuya without good mood, then said to Zhou Xuan: "Ignore Ya Zi, he didn't go out to divine today, got mind-sick from idleness, sat by the door all day, gazing at the sun by day, and looking at the moon by night,
He's now saying he can enter the Time Realm. Who knows how long his mental state will last, and whether it can be cured."
"Grand Master, I really can go to the Time Realm, there are four helpers with me there." Zhao Wuya pointed to the sky and said: "If you don't believe me, step outside and I'll show you."
"See your grandpa, stop making fun of your Grand Master."
Yun Ziliang scolded outright,
Yet Zhou Xuan suddenly remembered that, besides the three stone Buddhas, Wuxiang Prison had mentioned that there were four Seeking Wave Monks of Buddha Country, all in the Time Realm...
