Zhao Shouyi glared fiercely at Zhou Bai, "What nonsense are you spouting? Donghua City doesn’t have the position of City Lord, and even if it did, there’s no way you’d be the one to hold it. Make so realistic requests."
Zhou Bai sighed and said, "Then how about letting manage the Xuannü Secret Stash? Look at the big ss the Xuannü Secret Stash has gotten into this ti, even the Heavenly Demon got in, and the manager didn’t detect any anomalies?
I think the whole Xuannü Secret Stash needs a thorough overhaul.
We need to improve the various asset managent systems, drive more of the treasure’s assets towards industries and key fields that are vital to the safety of Donghua City and the cultivators’ cultivation lifeline, constantly enhancing the economic vitality, control, and influence of the Xuannü Secret Stash."
"Don’t beat around the bush with ," Zhao Shouyi said, feeling a headache, rubbing his temples, "The Xuannü Secret Stash is related to all aspects of Donghua City, it can’t possibly be handed over to you, suggest sothing else."
"Ah, this won’t do, that won’t do either," Zhou Bai shook his head with a look of disappointnt; he so wished he could sell off Donghua City.
At that mont, Zhou Bai said helplessly, "Then I’ll just have to take a loss and collect so garbage." He looked at Zhao Shouyi and casually suggested, "How about you give the Heavenly Demon corpses collected from this battle?"
"Heavenly Demon corpses?" Zhao Shouyi looked at Zhou Bai in surprise.
The technology of the Heavenly Demon is completely incomprehensible to humans, and of the remains they leave behind, only a small part can be utilized by humans.
Most will be relted as ordinary materials.
Even the Heavenly Court only took a few single-digit items to be used as materials and specins for research.
Therefore, in Donghua City at this mont, there is still a large number of unprocessed Heavenly Demon corpses.
Of course, Zhou Bai wanted to sell them to exchange for laziness points.
’Sigh, in the heat of battle, I didn’t have ti to earn laziness points; I can only make up for it now.’
Zhou Bai widened his eyes, looking sincerely at Zhao Shouyi, hoping the other party would agree quickly.
Zhao Shouyi nodded and looked at Zhou Bai with a strange expression, "It’s possible, but what do you need the Heavenly Demon corpses for?"
Zhou Bai blurted out, "To burn!"
Zhao Shouyi: "..."
Zhou Bai explained, "It’s like this, the great battle has caused trendous psychological trauma, don’t look at being so calm now, in fact, I feel like I could go crazy at any mont. Only by lashing out at those Heavenly Demons’ corpses can my heart find peace."
Zhao Shouyi looked at Zhou Bai, smacking his lips and said, "You sound quite sincere, your argunt is well-founded."
Zhou Bai looked at Zhao Shouyi expectantly, only to hear Zhao Shouyi say, "But I don’t believe a word of your ghost story. It’s your hexagram’s doing, isn’t it?"
In fact, Zhao Shouyi and several other higher-ups at the school had speculated about Zhou Bai’s ability to transform into a mosaic and attract the Heavenly Demon.
Their first thought was of course the uncanny hexagram.
So Zhao Shouyi had always been concerned about the side effects of the hexagram on Zhou Bai.
Hearing Zhao Shouyi say this, Zhou Bai was slightly taken aback, only to hear Zhao Shouyi continue, "Zhou Bai, I know you’ve learned Tianhe Star Explosion, and you’ve made such a great contribution this ti. We trust you very much, both in terms of ability and character.
You will undoubtedly be a pillar of humanity, and our successor. We naturally won’t snatch anything from you."
Zhao Shouyi continuously weighed his words in his mind, for a genius like Zhou Bai, seen only once in a hundred years in Donghua City, he and Ying Hui, Jiaojiao, and others valued him extraordinarily. They did not want to put too much pressure on him, nor cause his displeasure, and even more so, they wanted to avoid any misunderstandings in words or any unforeseen events that might affect Zhou Bai’s psyche.
For a genius of this caliber, any kind of restraint wasn’t really necessary. Let him learn freely, cultivate freely, exert his talents, then ensure his safety as much as possible while silently guiding him to protect humanity.
This was the training strategy that Zhao Shouyi and others had set for Zhou Bai.
At this mont, Zhao Shouyi spoke seriously, "Divinations, though powerful, often co with various side effects. Is the side effect of your divination that you need to burn sothing?"
Zhou Bai was slightly startled, then said with a solemn expression, "You’ve noticed, teacher. Indeed, I’ve always been burning feces to satisfy this side effect."
Zhao Shouyi nodded, "I thought as much. Burning things, that’s not too bad, it’s not a side effect that causes significant damage to the body."
Zhao Shouyi advised, "You must rember, not every divination is this mild. If you acquire other divinations in the future, you must not use them recklessly..."
While listening to Zhao Shouyi’s warnings, Zhou Bai kept nodding his head. It was a good 20 minutes before he saw Zhao Shouyi showing signs of stopping, and he quickly said, "Teacher! I need to burn sothing, it’s urgent."
Before leaving, Zhou Bai couldn’t help but look at Zhao Shouyi with concern and asked, "Principal, are you alright? About Xiao Pei’s matter..."
"Stop talking nonsense, go burn your Heavenly Demons," Zhao Shouyi dismissed Zhou Bai and, looking out into the night, sighed deeply, "Xiao Pei..."
Under Zhao Shouyi’s arrangents, Zhou Bai suddenly ca into possession of most of the Heavenly Demon corpses left over from the battle.
As he ignited the piles of corpses, he also sold the bodies of these Heavenly Demons, watching his laziness points soar upwards, laughing heartily with delight.
To disguise the phenonon of the Heavenly Demon bodies vanishing into thin air, Zhou Bai burned for an entire night, even leaving a small amount of residue on the ground.
And his hard work throughout the night earned him a total of over two million laziness points.
Daoization Degree: 20.0%
Primordial Spirit Value: 3000
Divine Chart: Nine Calamities of Heavenly Beings
Laziness Points: 2.53 million
Having acquired so many laziness points, Zhou Bai naturally wanted to use them quickly to enhance his cultivation.
’However, the Twilight Taoist Skill teacher Jiaojiao won’t let learn it anymore. She’s right, the Twilight Taoist Skill has beco highly adverse for cultivators after the distortion of the Heavenly Dao. If I practice two skills simultaneously at my current low cultivation level, it might cause problems.
Moreover, I’m already using all my energy on practicing the Tianhe Star Explosion Sword; I have no ti to learn another skill.’
Thus, Zhou Bai thought of using laziness points to directly enhance his strength.
In the past, Zhou Bai didn’t do this because he simply didn’t have enough laziness points, especially since he needed them for studying Twilight Taoist Skills. As a result, his Primordial Spirit value and Daoization Degree hadn’t improved in a long ti.
But now that he had mastered the Tianhe Star Explosion Sword, and he had beco an important figure in the Dao School, selling the Heavenly Demon bodies had earned him over two million laziness points, it was the perfect ti to use them to strengthen his real power.
He first checked his gemstone, which had cooled down and could reverse ti by 30 minutes again.
With the gemstone serving as insurance, Zhou Bai felt more confident about enhancing his strength.
’Let’s try increasing the Daoization Degree.’
Zhou Bai hadn’t used laziness points to increase his Daoization Degree for a long ti because he was short on them. So he placed his hopes on the Primordial Dao Treasury.
Focusing on the Daoization Degree in the panel, a ssage imdiately surged forth.
"I haven’t used laziness points to increase the Daoization Degree beyond 20% before. It’s different from before when 1000 laziness points raised the degree by 0.1%. Now, does raising the degree by 0.1% require 10,000 laziness points?"
Zhou Bai tried injecting 10,000 laziness points and imdiately saw his Daoization Degree change to 20.1%.
But in the next mont, a boiling sensation erupted from his sea of consciousness, and Zhou Bai saw his body twisting and contorting, showing signs of a grotesque transformation.
"What’s happening? Why is this happening?"
