Zhou Bai poked Qian Wangsun’s wound with his hand and asked curiously, "Are you practicing to death?"
Qian Wangsun replied, "I have no choice, my talent is no match for you guys, so I have to work even harder."
Zhou Bai inquired, "Is it effective?"
"Of course," Qian Wangsun said. "The greater the pressure, the better the result. I can’t compete with you guys in terms of strength and speed, but if I focus solely on dodging and escaping now, neither you nor Zuo Dao would be able to handle ."
At this point, his eyes sparkled with excitent, "When Lu Wanzhen and the others’ cultivation isn’t working well, I’ll go find Jiang Weishan, who’s ranked second. You have class with him for Body Refinent, right? Is he tough? Give so intel."
Jiang Weishan this guy," Zhou Bai pondered before answering, "is terrifyingly tough."
Qian Wangsun: "???"
Zhou Bai, however, stood up after speaking, "Looks like you won’t be able to join us for dinner today."
"Wait a minute!" Qian Wangsun called out, "Given that we’re all handso guys, help call the teacher, will you?"
So when Zuo Dao stepped out of the building, what he saw was Qian Wangsun, covered in blood, being dragged back by Ying Hui.
He asked with concern, "What happened to Qian Wangsun?"
Zhou Bai sighed, "He practiced too hard and got hurt."
Zuo Dao’s gaze sharpened: ’Qian Wangsun is that determined?’
"Let’s go," Zhou Bai patted Zuo Dao’s shoulder. "We should get going to eat. He probably won’t be able to join us today."
Zuo Dao, looking at Zhou Bai who was brimming with energy, and then touching his own groggy head, finally couldn’t help but ask out of curiosity, "Zhou Bai, don’t you ever feel sleepy?"
"Sleepy?" Zhou Bai turned around to face the sleepy Zuo Dao and shook his head, "You’re under-eye circles are way too dark. Sigh, I’m not lying to you, I sleep a full eight hours every day. How else am I supposed to cultivate without sleep?"
Zuo Dao was skeptical, "I’ve asked Jing Xiu, you study all night long. Why do you lie to ?"
Zhou Bai sighed helplessly, thinking to himself, ’This silly kid.’
After a mont of thought, Zhou Bai said, "You’re right; I did lie to you. I practice day and night, and only during the morning Body Refinent class do I practice the Great Dream Arhat Heart Scripture to catch up on sleep."
Zuo Dao looked like he expected as much, "Is that really enough sleep for you?"
With a mysterious expression, Zhou Bai looked at Zuo Dao, "At first, it definitely wasn’t enough because practicing the Great Dream Arhat Heart Scripture kept from sleeping."
Zuo Dao nodded in agreent, then with a face full of anticipation, he asked, "So what did you do?"
"Since I couldn’t sleep after practicing, I did the opposite: I made myself fall asleep first, then practiced the Great Dream Arhat Heart Scripture in my dreams," Zhou Bai explained, then patted Zuo Dao’s shoulder, "If you don’t sleep every day, you’ll just get worse and worse, and you’ll never catch up to . If you want to reach the top, try sleeping first, then practicing."
Seeing Zuo Dao in deep thought, Zhou Bai breathed a sigh of relief, "I hope this silly kid takes it to heart. Otherwise, cultivating every day like that will lead to an early death."
Because their class ended late today and they had seen Qian Wangsun’s suicidal practice, by the ti Zhou Bai and Zuo Dao arrived at the cafeteria, it was relatively empty, and they could see the cafeteria aunties eating leftovers.
Zuo Dao and Zhou Bai casually ordered so basic rations and sat down to eat.
Zuo Dao, due to his cultivation of Ghostly Divine Hundred Refinents, was extrely resource-exhausted, so he was so poor he could only afford basic rations.
Zhou Bai, however, because he had to sell his property to exchange for laziness, was now also so poor he could only eat basic rations.
The cafeteria lady nearby saw their state and asked with so concern, "You two lads, aren’t you from the special training class? How co you’re so poor you can only afford to eat regular food? Can your bodies keep up?"
Zhou Bai looked back and saw it was Auntie Wang, who had previously given him an extra scoop of at. He smiled and said, "No worries, regular food replenishes strength and energy, and it’s nutritious. It’s more than enough."
Cafeteria Auntie Wang asked, "The responsibility of defeating the Heavenly Demon rests on you, so you must cultivate diligently."
Zhou Bai nodded his head and gestured that it was no problem.
Yet he heard Auntie Wang ask, "Do you think we’ll be able to defeat the Heavenly Demon eventually? Is the situation still okay now?"
Zhou Bai was taken aback and said, "Don’t worry, we’ll win sooner or later."
Hearing Zhou Bai’s answer, a pensive look flashed across Auntie Wang’s face, but she didn’t continue her query.
That day, the cooldown period for the Ti Reverse had finally ended, and Zhou Bai headed to the old hospital again at night.
Checking the ti, Zhou Bai’s figure swiftly soared out and in the blink of an eye, he was crawling along the path, reaching the position of the underground morgue.
This ti, Zhou Bai cautiously controlled his distance, not touching the pool of blood in the center of the morgue again.
’The first ti was entering that restroom, and then the whole hospital started to change.’
’The second encounter was near the bloodstain, and the hospital changed again.’
’Is the transformation related to the location?’
Zhou Bai carefully bypassed the bloodstain and arrived at the location of the secret chamber he had discovered last ti.
"After the hospital transford last ti, I tried my best but couldn’t open the secret chamber," Zhou Bai’s palm touched the door to the secret chamber, "If the transformation hasn’t occurred yet, it should be possible."
With that thought, Zhou Bai first attempted to activate the power of his Primordial Spirit to shake the walls.
Feeling the walls being shaken, a joy appeared on Zhou Bai’s face; indeed, just as he thought, under normal circumstances, he was capable of breaking through the wall.
After gathering his strength for a mont, Zhou Bai fiercely struck out with both palms, and saw the wall in front of him crumble piece by piece, revealing a pitch-black passage behind it.
Activating his light stone, Zhou Bai followed the passage deeper and deeper, and after a few hundred ters, he ca upon a large number of cultivation tanks over two ters tall.
His spirit was roused as he looked at each cultivation tank and discovered that most of them contained only withered mummies, and due to severe decay, the features of the bodies were utterly indistinguishable.
"Is soone really conducting experints here?" Zhou Bai’s heart tightened, "Is it Doctor Zhuang?"
He continued onward and soon found an experintal platform with even a few dissected mummies bound to it; evidently, so experints had been in progress here but were abruptly abandoned, resulting in the current scene.
Zhou Bai’s expression darkened, "Is Doctor Zhuang using the people from this hospital for experints?"
Zhou Bai’s Primordial Spirit energy swept out, searching for any sort of clue or record in the vicinity.
Soon, a notebook was brought before him.
"I have hidden the secrets I know in here..."
"This handwriting, it’s the sa as Doctor Zhuang’s," thought Zhou Bai, "If I had co straight here previously, I could have easily obtained the notebook.
Indeed, if Doctor Zhuang gave the coordinates, then searching should pose no danger or difficulty.
The danger must arise from the hospital’s transformation. But what exactly is causing the hospital’s transformation?"
