Several were still fresh, indicating they were recent injuries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boatman reached out with his left hand and grabbed the commoner’s right hand. With his other hand, he planted his bamboo pole into the lake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boatman’s index fingernail suddenly grew long and made a light slice across the commoner’s wrist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fresh blood spurted from the wound, ran down the back of his hand, and dripped onto the lake’s surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the boatman somehow produced a huge jar, holding it under the bleeding wrist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the blood dripped continuously, the commoner’s face turned extremely pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before long, the boatman finally set the jar aside and lightly brushed his hand over the commoner’s wrist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wound gradually healed, leaving only a brown scar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Get on.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blood-red-eyed boatman only said those two simple words, then turned his gaze to another commoner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man’s face was pale and his steps were unsteady, but he still held the incense in his left hand and shakily walked onto the raft.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next, every commoner repeated this process.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the bamboo raft was full, the boatman poled it toward the island in the center of the lake, receding farther and farther into the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lakeside became quiet, and not a single person remained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next morning, Shen Bai yawned and watched the smoke before him, waiting patiently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before long, the smoke gradually gathered, forming a new line of text that appeared before Shen Bai’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Purifying Heart Spell Level 2 (Clear Heart +2, Neutral +2): 1000\u002F1000]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the smoke dissipated, Shen Bai let out a long breath. His mouth was a bit dry, so he picked up the tea beside him and took a sip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the entire night, Shen Bai had done nothing but chant the Purifying Heart Spell in his room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be honest, chanting the Purifying Heart Spell at night sounded pretty creepy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, there was no one else in the room, and the gains from this night were quite substantial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, the Purifying Heart Spell was on the verge of a breakthrough. He just needed to harvest one more wisp of Evil Qi to reach Level 3.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After reaching Level 2, the Purifying Heart Spell had gained a new Neutral Attribute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Shen Bai’s opinion, this Attribute was rather intriguing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The function of the so-called Neutral Attribute was to allow Shen Bai to become even calmer in critical moments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed like an ordinary attribute, but Shen Bai knew that it could play a crucial role in certain special situations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example, in times of extreme danger, people tended to panic, and even Shen Bai was no exception.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But with the Neutral Attribute, in situations of extreme crisis, Shen Bai could make himself even calmer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, this Attribute had another benefit: it would be very effective when facing certain special abilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For instance, some abilities could induce negative emotions like fear. Neutral would allow Shen Bai to achieve a state of absolute calm under their influence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’So I really should consider going to check out that Locust Tree now.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai put down his teacup, gently spinning it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evil Qi was a crucial component for his Golden Finger. After a whole night of grinding, Shen Bai had decided to go see the giant Locust Tree the old Daoist had mentioned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for whether it was dangerous, Shen Bai was certain it would be.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The real question, the one that concerned him, was whether the risks and rewards were proportional.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the rewards far outweighed the risks, it was worth taking a gamble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Shen Bai wasn’t a fool. He planned to observe from a distance first, approach cautiously, and see what the situation with the Locust Tree was really like.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’If I can make a move, I will.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this in mind, Shen Bai brewed himself a dose of Qi Blood Medicine and drank it. After waiting for his Qi and blood to be slightly replenished, he got ready and walked out the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside, the street vendors had already begun a new day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The world was in chaos, but people still had to survive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even in a remote town like Shengyun County, the common people were living on tenaciously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai found a breakfast stall. After eating and resting for a bit, he prepared to head to Liu Yun Lake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before leaving, Shen Bai returned to the pawnshop one more time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Chaofeng had already gone home. His wife was a real tiger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai guessed that Zhang Chaofeng had probably sent his wife back to her parents’ home early that morning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai was the only one in the entire pawnshop. He quickly gathered a few things: a set of black clothes, a black face covering, and an oil-paper umbrella.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a pawnshop, after all. It had all sorts of strange and bizarre things, so finding a set of night-raiding gear was no surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai even remembered that this gear had been pawned by a down-on-his-luck, one-armed swordsman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had given the man two copper coins for it at the time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His reason for bringing it was simple. In these chaotic times, it was best not to reveal one’s identity if it could be avoided.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, some things are always better left in the shadows than out in the open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing all his preparations, Shen Bai closed the door and headed in the direction of Liu Yun Lake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a village near Liu Yun Lake, considered one of the more distant villages around Shengyun County.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since coming to this world, Shen Bai had rarely traveled far. This time, however, he felt rather relaxed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he was going to see the giant Locust Tree, Shen Bai still understood the importance of pacing oneself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The way to Liu Yun Lake was along the official road.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the Great Zhou Country’s dynasty was currently in turmoil, the official road was still much safer than any side path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai didn’t want any unexpected complications, so he did not take a shortcut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the official road, horse-drawn carriages passed by from time to time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These carriages didn’t belong to the ordinary folk of Shengyun County, but to various merchant guilds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai, walking alone on the official road, looked a bit out of place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It couldn’t be helped. If he wanted to take a carriage, he would have to wait a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai’s walking Speed wasn’t slow, and with the Qi in his body, he estimated he could arrive by afternoon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And so, after walking for about another hour, the sky turned from clear to overcast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The current season in Shengyun County was rainy, with showers often drifting by.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The locals were all used to it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai had prepared in advance. He took an oil-paper umbrella from his bundle, ready to open it when the rain started.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After walking for about the time it takes an incense stick to burn, Shen Bai suddenly stopped in his tracks and frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not far ahead on the road, a Monk in white robes was sitting cross-legged on the edge of the road, his palms pressed together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young, white-robed Monk was handsome, with nine ordination scars on his head. Set against his white clothes, he possessed a rather otherworldly aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the white-robed Monk saw Shen Bai, stood up, and walked toward him, his gaze fixed on him the entire time.\u003C\u002Fp>",1308,"2026-06-03T14:13:26.865Z","2026-06-03T14:13:33.156Z",1,"novelbin.me","bb0651a43ebca8cf90e6c966844ac96515ce9dc8b5baa7941685b023c3e753fc","i-can-extract-divine-power-chapter-150","i-can-extract-divine-power-chapter-149",322,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-can-extract-divine-power-cover.jpg"]
