Chapter 306

"The power of merit?"

Tong Yao and Yan Zhenzhen looked at Hua Changxi together.

"The power of merit is very difficult to accumulate. Making the Star-Gazing Tower reappear must require a lot of merit. How did you accumulate it?"

Even Jing Le was full of curiosity. You know, the Xiangguo Temple only cultivated a Golden Lotus of Merit after the joint efforts of several generations of abbots.

Hua Changxi: "... Do more good deeds?"

This answer made the three of Tong Yao look at each other.

If they said that doing good deeds could accumulate merit, they undoubtedly believed it, but as far as the four of them were concerned, the one who did the most good deeds should be the compassionate monk Jing Le.

Could Jing Le make the Star-Gazing Tower reappear?

Tong Yao and Yan Zhenzhen expressed doubt about this, and even Jing Le himself didn't have this confidence.

Therefore, simple good deeds should not be enough to accumulate a large amount of merit.

Although the three of Tong Yao were still very confused about accumulating merit, they didn't continue to question Hua Changxi.

Hua Changxi herself had some guesses about her possessing merit; could it be that she did some things that promoted the development of the Four Spirits World?

Because she did things that complied with the development of the times, allowing everyone to benefit, so she gained a large wave of merit?

Seeing that the three of Tong Yao didn't continue to ask, Hua Changxi didn't say much: "By the way, do you know who the Master of the Guangyin Tower is?"

Yan Zhenzhen: "Why did you suddenly ask about this?"

Hua Changxi: "I saw three people on the Star-Gazing Tower just now, two of whom were the Minister of the Tian Department and Tower Master Yuan, and the other one is nine times out of ten the Master of the Guangyin Tower, but I don't know his name yet."

Yan Zhenzhen: "The Guangyin Tower has another name, called the Time Pavilion. The successive heads all come from the Shi family, and the current tower master is called Shi Yishi."

Tong Yao followed: "Among the noble families in the capital, there are a few that even the royal family will not easily provoke, and among them are the Yuan family and the Shi family."

"The Yuan family and the Shi family have never broken their inheritance. The successive heads of the Yuan family will serve as the Supervisor of the Qintian Bureau, while the Shi family has always been responsible for compiling history books."

Hua Changxi nodded in realization. No wonder Tower Master Yuan and the Minister of the Tian Department were so familiar; both of them had such big backgrounds: "You know so much."

Yan Zhenzhen smiled: "It's not that we know a lot, it's that you know too little."

Hua Changxi smiled sheepishly; her information was indeed a bit blocked.

Yan Zhenzhen smiled and looked at Hua Changxi: "Actually, you and the Yuan family have long had intersections."

Hua Changxi had a head full of question marks: "How come I don't know?"

Yan Zhenzhen: "Yuan Tianchou of the Medical Department is Yuan Qi's legitimate son."

Hua Changxi looked surprised: "So Yuan Tianchou comes from the Yuan family."

Yan Zhenzhen: "The relationship network in the capital is complicated. Not only are there many royal nobles, but there are also countless children of powerful families. You should be more careful in the future."

Hua Changxi nodded, talked with the three of Tong Yao for a while, and then the four of them separated.

On the way back to the Medical Department, Hua Changxi remembered the three Infant-Transformation demon races she hunted at the Dongcheng Gate. She was just about to start practicing the fifth volume, the Blood Refining Volume, of the "Nine Turns Profound Art," which required the use of demon beast blood.

Hua Changxi returned to the Dongcheng Gate, wanting to collect the corpses of the three demon beasts, but unfortunately, the corpses were already gone. Upon asking, she learned that they had been taken away by the Demon-Suppressing Army.

After knowing this, Hua Changxi didn't go directly to the Demon-Suppressing Army, but turned back to the Medical Department, intending to ask Huo Yunxiao for help in getting the demon beast corpses back.

Hua Changxi found Huo Yunxiao at the No. 3 Qihuang Pavilion. After stating her purpose, Huo Yunxiao agreed without saying a word.

"Go back and wait. I will send the demon beast corpses to Danyuan Peak early tomorrow morning."

Hua Changxi looked at him suspiciously: "Why are you so easy to talk to this time?"

Huo Yunxiao smiled helplessly: "I have always been easy to talk to."

Hua Changxi: "Then thank you for your trouble. I'll give you some demon beast blood when the time comes."

Huo Yunxiao smiled: "Forget about the demon beast blood. Can you tell me what you did in the Star-Gazing Tower tonight?"

Hua Changxi said "Heh" and turned to leave.

Seeing this, Huo Yunxiao stretched his neck and shouted: "Let's just chat."

At the same time, in the deep belly of the Ten Thousand Great Mountains, a demon beast with a white dragon head and lion body lay on the ground, with scarlet blood flowing from the corners of its mouth. The unstable aura caused the surrounding earth to shake and birds and beasts to scatter.

After a long while, the deep belly of the mountain became quiet.

"Master Demon Teacher..."

The patriarchs of the Dragon, Phoenix, Qilin, Tiger, Tortoise, Snake, Bird, and Fox clans all looked at the white demon beast with worry.

With white light flaring, the demon beast with a dragon head and lion body turned into a handsome white-haired man in white clothes.

Bai Li wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth: "Patriarchs, don't worry. Just now, it was because the snake clan sent to lurk in the capital activated a forbidden technique, extracting some of the demon race's power of merit, and I suffered some backlash."

Hearing this, the expressions of the demon patriarchs present changed.

The Dragon clan patriarch, Long Teng, looked unhappily at the Snake clan patriarch: "How do you snake clans handle things? If you want to launch a forbidden technique, why didn't you inform us in advance?"

The Snake clan patriarch, Teng Liu, glanced at Long Teng and sarcastically said: "You dragon clans are powerful, but I haven't seen you dare to lurk in the capital?"

Long Teng's eyes were on fire; the dragon clan was indeed unwilling to lurk in the human gathering places.

There was no help for it; for the human race, the dragon clan was a great tonic from head to toe. Once the human race encountered the dragon clan, they would go crazy and want to pounce on it and take a bite.

It wasn't that the dragon clan hadn't lurked before, but unfortunately, every time it was like a meat bun hitting a dog, never to return.

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Bai Li spoke up.

"It must be that an accident happened in the capital. The green snake sent there must have been forced into a desperate situation, and had no choice but to activate the forbidden technique."

Although Bai Li came from the lion clan, because he possessed the bloodline of Bai Ze and his bloodline atavism degree was very high, he inherited the supernatural power of Bai Ze to understand Yin and Yang and divine all things. He had a very high status in the Ten Thousand Great Mountains.

As soon as he spoke, Long Teng and Teng Liu stopped talking.

Bai Li looked at the Snake clan patriarch: "What exactly happened in the capital, and why did the green snake activate the forbidden technique in advance? Patriarch Teng still needs to investigate carefully."

Teng Liu agreed very simply: "Don't worry, Demon Teacher, I will definitely send someone to find out the matter clearly."

Bai Li nodded and looked at the eight great demon patriarchs: "Since the rise of the human race in ancient times, the Ten Thousand Great Mountains has been the best training ground for the human race."

"With the establishment of the Demon Prison, the human race has directly stepped on the demon race."

"After the Great Extinction, spiritual energy recovered, and everything started from scratch."

"Nowadays, the Ten Thousand Great Mountains is still in a sealed space. This is protection and also a restriction. Once unsealed, the demon race will face the human race head-on."

"Between the demon race and the human race, either the demon race overwhelms the human race, or the human race overwhelms the demon race."

"The struggle between the demon race and the human race is unavoidable. Patriarchs, the training of demon soldiers and generals cannot be slackened. Whether the demon race can reappear in the glory of the prehistoric era depends on this time."

Hearing this, the patriarchs of the eight most powerful demon clans in the Ten Thousand Great Mountains all became serious.

Bai Li: "Nanxiang City is about to appear in the world. Whether the demon race can overwhelm the human race and become the master of the Four Spirits World, the ownership of Nanxiang City is crucial."

"I'm fine now, patriarchs, go back and busy yourselves with your clan's affairs."

After the eight patriarchs left, Bai Li looked up at the starry sky, and an inseparable sorrow appeared on his face.

In order to divide the human race, he did not hesitate to extract the power of merit from the demon race, but the plan went wrong halfway.

The Zhou Tian Xing Chen appeared tonight, but the person who could trigger it was not the demon race. Could it be that in this era, the human race is still rising?
