Chapter 111 Sending You to the Western Paradise
Although Yu Ding was curious, he did not ask any further questions.
It's perfectly normal for an apprentice to grow up and have their own circle of friends.
As long as they don't commit heinous crimes outside, he has no say in the matter.
After explaining everything, Yu Ding prepared to leave.
But after taking only a few steps, Nezha suddenly spoke up, "Uncle-Master, have you seen my master recently?"
"I heard that he's recently sealed off the doors of his cave dwelling. Could it be that he's crafted some kind of treasure that he doesn't want me to see?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Ding ran even faster.
……
In the void, the sky was just beginning to brighten.
It's rare to have such a wonderful opportunity to sleep so soundly.
These days have been so tiring.
Stepping out of the room and onto the roof, Su Bai completed his cultivation before opening his personal panel.
Name: Su Bai
【Race: Tabby Cat】
[Realm: Qi Refining to Spirit Transformation (Breakthrough Imminent)]
The Three Corpses: Greed (severe), Ignorance (severe), and Anger (severe)
[Cultivation Techniques: Cultivating Both Body and Mind, Breathing in the Sun and Moon]
[Talents: Avoiding misfortune and attracting good fortune, intimidation (exhaling), plundering offerings, leveraging power (using plundered offerings to borrow the power of immortals), acting cute (high-level cultivators have some resistance to this), bringing good fortune (unintentional actions that can make others feel comfortable)]
[Supernatural Abilities: Heaven and Earth Manifestation (Low-level), Sword Control (Intermediate-level), Thunder Magic (Low-level), Solar True Fire (Intermediate-level), Shrinking Earth to an Inch (Intermediate-level), Auspicious Cloud (Too low cultivation level to use)]
[Magic Items: Qingping Sword (A sage's magic item, reforged twice, containing one Heaven-Opening Blade, usable only by those at the Qi Refining and Divine Transformation stage, and can be upgraded), 3 Life-Saving Hairs (Each hair contains the power of a sage; it activates automatically in times of crisis without needing to be controlled), Gold Ingots (A gift from the God of Wealth; one can absorb the fortune and merit within to unleash the Auspicious Talent), One Drop of Three Lights Divine Water (Stored in the upper dantian; automatically triggered in times of crisis), Six Pure Bamboo Roots (Cannot unleash its full power, but can briefly stun enemies; highly effective when used in conjunction with the Qingping Sword for surprise attacks), Nuwa's Majesty*1 (Can intimidate all things), Sage Zhunti's Majesty*1 (Can intimidate the Buddhist sects of Mount Ling)]
Looking at his personal panel, Su Bai couldn't help but feel a little confused.
The "Talent" category, with its auspicious and favorable activation, is normal.
On the contrary, what's going on with the magical treasures, the imposing presence of Nuwa and Zhunti?
These things weren't there when I last looked at it.
Could it be because of the fish?
But having something is better than having nothing; at least we have a few more things to keep us alive.
Just as he was about to close the window, Su Bai's eyes suddenly caught sight of the gold ingot.
[Gold Ingot: A gift from the God of Wealth (You can absorb its good fortune and merits to unleash your auspicious talents)]
Su Bai was taken aback when he saw this line.
Previously, Su Bai hadn't paid much attention to this gold ingot.
I've always thought of it as just an ornament, and as for the God of Wealth's saying that you can find money even if you just look down, that's just a joke.
But now it seems that this gold ingot has more than just that function.
This contains Zhao Gongming's good fortune and merits.
The higher the God of Wealth's merits and fortune, the more he can draw upon them, thus enabling him to exert his auspicious and lucky nature.
So, it seems his talent is indeed linked to the God of Wealth.
Without gold ingots, it might not be able to perform at all.
After thinking for a moment, Su Bai's eyes lit up slightly.
He really wanted to try out this talent right now and see what it was like.
But Su Bai quickly dismissed the idea.
After all, it's someone else's good fortune and luck, so it's best not to act recklessly unless it's absolutely necessary.
Standing on the roof, Su Bai glanced around the Taoist temple.
At this time, everyone was still asleep.
If I take this opportunity to sneak out, my master probably won't know.
Thinking of this, Su Bai ran straight out of the courtyard.
We arrived at the wall and were just about to enter.
All that could be heard was the sound of wings flapping on the wall.
"Are you going out again?" Jinwu blinked.
"You want to go too?" Su Bai asked.
Jinwu hesitated slightly before glancing back at the Taoist temple.
It would be a lie to say I didn't want to go.
Putting aside whether he could actually get through the wall, he was even more afraid that if he went out and came back, he would be beaten to death by the old Taoist priest.
After all, the old Taoist priest really dared to do that.
After hesitating for a long time, Jinwu finally shook his head and said, "Never mind, next time. I'll go with you next time."
"Alright, I'll be going now. Remember to tell my master for me."
……
As soon as he stepped out of the painting, a pair of small hands embraced him.
Smelling the sweet scent, Su Bai immediately knew who it was.
"I've been waiting for you for ages, you've finally come out."
Nezha, carrying Su Bai, flew quickly towards the South Heavenly Gate.
He waited there for about a day.
Yang Jian waited in the mortal realm for nearly a year.
Seeing Nezha carrying Su Bai and flying towards Guanjiang Estuary, Yang Jian stopped talking and led Xiaotian Dog to meet them.
"Let's set off first, and we can discuss any problems on the way."
At this moment, Su Bai was completely bewildered, having no idea what these two guys were up to.
Just as Yang Jian and Nezha were leaving, they happened to pass by a temple dedicated to the God of Wealth not far away.
As the God of Wealth, there are countless temples dedicated to him in this world, and a wisp of his divine consciousness resides in each of them.
When he saw Yang Jian and Nezha in the sky, he didn't find it strange. After all, the two had a good relationship, and it was normal for them to occasionally run around.
But when he saw the cat that Nezha was holding, his expression changed instantly.
"Junior Brother!"
Looking in the direction they were heading, Zhao Gongming frowned deeply.
That's the Western Paradise, what are they going there for?
After carefully recalling the news he had heard recently, a flash of understanding appeared in Zhao Gongming's eyes.
A grand Buddhist ceremony is being held at Mount Ling in the Western Paradise. The two individuals are likely representing the Heavenly Court and the Xuanmen (Taoist sect) and have gone to participate in the ceremony.
But these two kids, one has a fiery temper and the other is honest and simple. Sending them would only bring shame to the Heavenly Court.
It's one thing to lose face for the Heavenly Court, but to lose face for the Xuanmen Sect is unacceptable.
After hesitating for a moment and pondering for a long time, Zhao Gongming finally sent a telepathic message into the distance.
"Venerable Heavenly Master of Wonderful Dharma, this humble Taoist has a request..."
"Don't worry, God of Wealth. If anything happens, I will go myself. How could my Xuanmen be at a disadvantage?"
……
Looking in the direction Yang Jian and Nezha were flying, Su Bai couldn't help but ask, "Where are we going?"
"I'll send you to the Western Paradise."
???
"Nezha means that we will go to the Western Paradise together," Yang Jian said with a smile.
No, I want to live a few more years, please stop messing around!
