Chapter 148 The World of Ghosts and Monsters (End)
The people of the Celestial Masters' Institute also felt that it was time to teach this new country a lesson. After all, their science had directly cost them their lives. If it really led to the country's demise, that would be better. It would be good to support a new country as long as the Celestial Masters' Institute could continue.
Therefore, they turned a blind eye to the actions of the Japanese monks.
Moreover, the Celestial Master was extremely arrogant, believing that he could crush a small country like Japan with just one finger, and didn't think that Japanese sorcerers had much ability.
Or perhaps they'll wait until a new nation realizes that the Celestial Master's Temple is an indispensable part of this world, and then come begging to them, at which point they can leisurely descend as a savior and save the world.
As a result, it was precisely because of this kind of thinking and arrogance that the Japanese almost succeeded in their treacherous scheme, nearly causing a major disaster.
Severing the dragon vein and destroying the nation's destiny are not just a few words; they concern the survival of all living beings on this land. Trillions of lives depend on this land, and if it were destroyed, the entire land would be plunged into an abyss of no return—it would be no exaggeration to call it a living hell.
Yun Gu initially thought it was a spy incident, that the Japanese had infiltrated the Celestial Master's Office.
Unexpectedly, the actual situation was so absurd. Whether it has been infiltrated or not is no longer important, because the roots of the Celestial Masters' Institute are rotten to the core. Since it is rotten, it must be eradicated by the roots.
The reason I know these things is because Yun Gu's master told me last night.
Yun Gu and Liu Sheng's master was also one of those who disagreed with using ghost-raising to maintain the Celestial Master's lineage. They left the Celestial Master's Institute early and went into seclusion in the mountains to cultivate and seek other methods.
Before he left, he gave Yun Gu and Liu Sheng the secret technique to contact him.
No matter what Yun Gu said, Liu Sheng still believed that Mo Ying was a demon raised by an enemy country, and that the Celestial Master could not possibly be colluding with the Japanese.
Seeing that she couldn't persuade Liu Sheng after a long time, Yun Gu directly activated her secret technique to contact her master, and then told him everything she knew, asking him to make a decision.
When the old man learned that the Celestial Master's Temple had almost been exploited by the Japanese and that the dragon vein of the motherland had almost been severed, he was furious. After thinking about the cause and effect, he immediately understood what had happened.
He angrily cursed the people at the Celestial Master's Office as scoundrels.
It was only then that Yun Gu learned the truth hidden behind the incident of raising evil spirits on Japanese soil.
In the end, Yun Gu's tone became somewhat melancholic: "The Celestial Masters were created to save humanity. If humanity no longer needs them, it's fine for them to disappear into the river of history. Anyway, modern people are living quite well and happily, so it's not bad for the Celestial Masters to become ordinary people. What the Celestial Masters have done is just a dying struggle."
The tide of the times is unstoppable. Those who attempt to stop it will harm themselves and others, and will ultimately suffer the consequences.
"My master said he would contact the seniors who left the Celestial Masters Institute with him back then to come out of the mountains and subdue the evil spirits raised by the Celestial Masters Institute one by one. He also contacted the national leadership and said that even if it meant using guns and cannons, he would completely destroy the Celestial Masters Institute."
Lin Xiaoqian and the others sighed in disbelief. Mo Ying frowned slightly, as if realizing something, and raised his head slightly.
"Master said that this matter concerns the dragon vein, and Senior Moying has made a great contribution. After the matter is resolved, he will personally pay a visit to Senior Moying. I also thank you on behalf of the people of our country." With that, Yun Gu led Liu Sheng Xiao Tong to give Moying a deep bow.
Mo Ying initially wanted to avoid it, but after thinking about it, she accepted the greeting and then said, "There's no need for a formal visit. We'll be leaving soon, and it's hard to say whether we'll meet again."
Then he took out a few books from his storage space and stuffed them into Yun Gu's hands: "These books are taking up space here. You can read them for fun. Keep them if you need them, and throw them away if you don't."
After saying that, he waved and went upstairs.
Yun Gu was caught off guard and subconsciously looked at the book in her hand.
Lin Xiaoqian and the others curiously craned their necks to look, and found that it was a cultivation technique from the world of immortal cultivation, probably a treasure of Mo Ying.
Although it is far inferior to the cultivation techniques rewarded by the system, it is still top-tier in the world of cultivation.
Lin Xiaoqian and the others gaped in surprise. Mo Ying wanted the Celestial Masters to cultivate immortality?
Yun Gu flipped through the book. It was a well-founded and systematic cultivation method, completely different from cultivation based on some kind of mysterious faith.
It's like a group of people who originally knew some magic and had some special abilities suddenly having the opportunity to attain immortality. How could this not be a pleasant surprise?
However, whether they have spiritual roots and whether they can cultivate immortality techniques is still unknown, but at least there is hope. It is better than being like headless flies, unable to find a way out for a long time, and then going astray.
Yun Gu bowed deeply upstairs again, thanked Lin Xiaoqian and the others profusely, and then left with Liu Sheng and Xiao Tong.
She needed to quickly tell her master this good news so that the power to eliminate the Celestial Masters' Association could be greater.
After Yun Gu left, Lin Xiaoqian and the others looked at each other, something seemed off, and Mo Ying seemed a little strange.
Lin Xiaoqian went through all these things in her mind, glanced at Mo Ying upstairs, and suddenly a bold guess popped into her head.
"System, did you choose this world on purpose?"
The system's mechanical voice quickly responded: "Yes."
"why?"
"To do a small favor for the Heavenly Dao of this small world."
"What?" Lin Xiaoqian exclaimed.
Seeing Jiang Shuang and the others looking over with concern, Lin Xiaoqian gestured for everyone to wait a moment.
"The operation of a small world has its own set of laws. Just like the extinction of the ancient mythical beasts dragon and phoenix in your world, and later the extinction of dinosaurs, it was all part of the evolution of laws. In this world, the Celestial Master lineage should have ended here to make way for technological development. But the Celestial Masters almost caused a great disaster in order to escape the laws, which displeased the Heavenly Dao. However, the Heavenly Dao favors humans, and the Celestial Masters are essentially human as well, so it asked me to help solve this problem."
"So, you deliberately took advantage of the situation to bind Mo Ying, took away half of his demonic power, and brought him to this world. He discovered that he could restore his demonic power by refining ghosts. In order to restore his strength at its peak, he would definitely go out to find ghosts and refine all those evil ghosts. But in fact, you were slowly returning his demonic power to him, right?"
The system remained silent. It seemed that the host had indeed become much smarter after drinking that so-called wisdom potion.
Lin Xiaoqian continued, "So it's not about ghostly power transforming into demonic power at all; it's just a smokescreen. What benefit did you get from doing all this?"
It's absurd to say; how could ghostly power possibly be transformed into demonic power?
The system was also a little guilty. It had received some benefits from the Heavenly Dao of this world, but that was something that couldn't be said. Anyway, it had helped, and the host had completed the task of a small world safely. Everything was perfect.
However, it was it that tricked Mo Ying into working as a farmhand, and the farmhand was even injured as a result.
"Well, Mo Ying also received some benefits. He helped this world solve its problems, and the Heavenly Dao of this world gave him a small reward."
That was indeed the case, but this gift of gratitude only appeared after Mo Ying gave the cultivation technique to Yun Gu; otherwise, he wouldn't have gone upstairs immediately after giving the technique.
At this moment, Mo Ying in the upstairs room was sitting cross-legged, observing the tiny purple object, no bigger than a hair, in his dantian.
He was originally a demon from the world of cultivation, and a demon who had cultivated for nearly a thousand years. He was quite sensitive to the laws of heaven. Before Yun Gu was about to bow to him, he felt a powerful gaze on him.
The powerful gaze he received was on a completely different level from the great beings he had encountered in the cultivation world. His animal instincts led him to take out the cultivation techniques from the cultivation world and pass them on to Yun Gu.
Then, this wisp of purple energy suddenly appeared in his body, and he knew he had done the right thing.
This wisp of purple energy was very thin, but it was enough to drive the entire cultivation world into a frenzy, because it was a wisp of primordial purple energy!
