Chapter 177: Constant Ornament Slot

Wu Xian put his back into it, viciously beating the driver's face until he turned into a pig's head, before shaking his hands and stopping, walking over to the snake pit to squat down.

Lady Willow was frightened by Wu Xian's violence, shrinking her head back and secretly peeking at Wu Xian's face.

"I know you're there; you don't have to come out."

"Rest assured, I will call for rescue. The people in the bus still have a chance of survival; I will do my best to help them."

"If one day someone wants you to learn some Immortal Art, you don't have to agree. What you are practicing now is the Righteous Method."

After Wu Xian finished speaking, he stood up, leaving behind a bewildered Lady Willow, and led the driver along a relatively gentle slope, climbing up the cliff.

Once they reached the high ground, the driver's phone finally had a signal.

"Okay, okay, please come over quickly; some of them are about to lose their lives."

The driver hung up the phone and turned his head to look at Wu Xian with a pitiful expression.

"I've made the call; can you let me go now?"

"Quiet, I'm thinking."

The driver was stunned: "Thinking about what?"

Boom!

"Ah..."

Wu Xian kicked the driver off the cliff, squatting at the edge of the precipice and looking at the corpse below with a cold sneer.

"I told you to be quiet; why didn't you listen?"

The bus falling off the cliff was not the driver's responsibility.

But causing the survivors to lose their chance of rescue, and allowing Lady Willow to be exploited by the 'Master', leading the world to fall into the abyss, was something the driver could not escape.

Therefore, Wu Xian thought for a moment and decided to send him to accompany the victims of the accident.

After doing all this.

Wu Xian climbed down the cliff, moved the living people out of the bus one by one, and performed simple treatments on their wounds. After working for a while, the sound of the rescue team came from afar.

Looking at his own hands beginning to fade.

Wu Xian knew that his mission here was complete; as for what direction the future of this world would take, it was all up to Heaven's will.

The wind blew through the weeds, making a rustling sound.

Smelling the scent of withered grass in his nasal cavity, Wu Xian opened his eyes. He stood in the center of the circular clearing, and before him was the familiar Thirty-Three Heavens of Parting Sorrows.

He first opened his Ordination Certificate, flipping to the curse page, and breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing that all the curses on his body had been cleared.

Then he scanned his surroundings.

He discovered that the incense burner placed on the altar had disappeared, but the dog paw prints left by Blackie were still there. He opened the Spirit-Storing Box, and the three slots were still filled to the brim.

This indicated that God-Worshiping Items could only be preserved if placed in the storage box, but beyond that, the influence he himself had caused on this clearing could be preserved for a long time.

Wu Xian pondered for a while and took the Point-Stone-to-Gold Technique out of the storage box.

He had originally intended to use this spell talisman in the real world to get himself a golden toilet, but because of that business at the Chenghuangmiao, he had forgotten about this spell talisman...

He would definitely obtain new God-Worshiping Items in a while, and the storage box slots were limited, so he might as well use this Point-Stone-to-Gold Technique first.

After visiting the Chenghuangmiao, Wu Xian had grasped some common knowledge among the Lotus Juanren, including what they called this circular clearing: the Lotus Juanren Temple.

Every circular clearing was a temple belonging to the Lotus Juanren themselves, enshrining their own statues.

But Wu Xian's Lotus Juanren Temple was too crude, so he decided to beautify it.

Wu Xian pointed his hand at the ground, closed his eyes, and built a model in his mind. The Point-Stone-to-Gold Technique could turn one cubic meter of objects into gold; he wanted to use this spell talisman to get a golden floor for his Lotus Juanren Temple.

After the construction was complete, Wu Xian opened his eyes, and the ground was suddenly a sheet of golden yellow.

He took off his coat and swept away all the stones and floating soil on the golden floor. His Lotus Juanren Temple suddenly became magnificent, gaining a bit more of a noble aura.

After doing all this, Wu Xian felt a bit tired, so he lay on the reflective golden floor to take a nap.

After a nap, Wu Xian woke up.

He opened his Ordination Certificate; the evaluation of this Fudi by the Immortals and Deities had indeed been completed. This time, there were four reward items.

【Congratulations to Lotus Juanren Wu Xian for passing the Fudi 'Fatal Choice'; rewarded with thirty days of rest and one Monthly Rest Card.】

Not to mention the rest time, this was the first time Wu Xian had seen this Monthly Rest Card.

This card could be used in any environment; after use, one would not enter any Fudi for one month. Compared to accumulated rest time, the Monthly Rest Card was more flexible and could be stored in the Ordination Certificate to be used at any time. Although Wu Xian didn't care much about rest time, having this thing made him feel more at ease.

The second reward was the real highlight.

【Your performance in this Fudi was evaluated by the Immortals and Deities as 'One in a Hundred'; rewarded with one Constant Slot, Spirit-Storing Box capacity plus one, two years of lifespan, and the unlocking of the Constant Ornament Slot.】

Two years of lifespan was a bit less compared to last time, and the lack of incense sticks and an incense burner also made Wu Xian feel disappointed.

But the other three rewards all made Wu Xian feel pleasantly surprised!

Adding one Constant Slot allowed Wu Xian to bring one more God-Worshiping Item into the Fudi, which could directly increase his survival probability!

He turned his head to look at his statue and saw that an extra arm had appeared on it; a new Constant Item could be placed on this arm.

Needless to say, the Spirit-Storing Box capacity plus one was also great; the more slots for storage, the better. Wu Xian didn't want to waste a single God-Worshiping Item he had obtained through hard work.

What made Wu Xian most curious was the unlocking of the Constant Ornament Slot.

The introduction to the Constant Ornament Slot was very vague; it meant one could choose one ornament to bring into the Fudi. Ornaments didn't have any special abilities, but they could be brought into the Fudi multiple times.

But as long as the number of times one entered the Fudi was sufficient, even common items could possess spirituality.

The meaning of 'ornament' was very broad, from necklaces, rings, and bracelets to fidget spinners, lighters, and even books, picture albums, folding fans, and back scratchers—all could be counted as ornaments.

Ornaments could not be weapons, nor could they be electronic products. For instance, a grinding wheel lighter could count as an ornament, but an electronic lighter could not.

Most people, upon seeing the introduction to ornaments, might choose masks, lighters, or similar items that already possessed practicality.

But Wu Xian thought of Su Huijin.

Back then, when she was fighting, her abilities were launched from the beads she carried with her; those beads should have been her ornament. Imprinting abilities onto an ornament was more flexible than using them on one's hands.

Thus, after thinking it over, Wu Xian decided to choose poker cards to serve as his ornament.

And he decided that after returning home this time, he would start learning card magic.

Then Wu Xian looked at the third reward.

【Congratulations on triggering 'Disaster Retracing'; your performance in the retracing delayed the destruction of this world by two months; rewarded with five hundred Yin Virtue.】

The more Yin Virtue, the better; this Fudi had already proven the value of Yin Virtue.

But through Disaster Retracing, delaying the destruction of that world made Wu Xian feel even happier, because it made him realize that the life-and-death struggles they, the Lotus Juanren, had in the Fudi were not meaningless.
