477: Chapter 477: He Who Understands , Brother Fang!
“You obviously misunderstood my intention,”
Fang Bai said solemnly, “What I an is, tombs of experts like Zhuge Dingtian usually have a large amount of cultivation resources buried with them.
If you could rob one every now and then, you wouldn’t have to worry about cultivation resources anymore.
Brother Wu, rember to call next ti you find such a good opportunity!
I’ll join you in the tomb-robbing!”
“Brother, are you serious?”
At these words, Wu De’s spirit was lifted.
“Do I look like I’m joking?”
Fang Bai earnestly continued, “To tell you the truth, the cultivation technique I practice is quite special, and my need for cultivation resources is likely greater than that of any other martial artist in this world!
If you ever have surplus resources, you can bring them to , and I’ll exchange sothing of equal value with you!
How about that?”
Wu De slapped his thigh excitedly and said, “That’s great!
With your words, Brother Fang, I will definitely devote my limited life to the boundless endeavor of tomb-robbing, and work tirelessly until my last breath!”
Fang Bai said, “You now have a Spatial Spirit Device, but you lack an Offensive and Defensive Spirit Instrunt.
Once I’m capable of crafting spiritual artifacts, I’ll make one for you, and then wait for you to exchange it with cultivation resources!”
“He who knows , Brother Fang indeed!”
Hearing the words “Offensive and Defensive Spirit Instrunt,” Wu De’s eyes lit up with excitent, and he scratched his head frantically, saying, “I can’t wait!
I’m going to run around the whole world to find the tombs of great experts!
Lest, by the ti you craft the spiritual artifact, I won’t have the appropriate cultivation resources to exchange for it!
Brother Fang, I’m taking off now, we’ll et again later!”
Having said this, he waved to Fang Bai, slapped his butt, and swiftly dashed out, vanishing in the blink of an eye.
Fang Bai hadn’t expected the man to leave so suddenly; it seed he cared greatly about the so-called “Offensive and Defensive Spirit Instrunt.”
No wonder, for although Wu De was a high-rank Earth Level martial artist, virtually unrivaled in the Secular Ancient Martial World, he was sowhat insignificant in the Hidden Sect World.
The Hidden Sect World primarily consisted of Earth Level experts, and was not lacking Heaven Level martial artists.
With an Offensive and Defensive Spirit Instrunt in his possession, Wu De’s strength would increase manifold, granting him the power to contend with Heaven Level martial artists.
He would then be able to traverse the Hidden Sect World freely and unobstructed.
However, Fang Bai was not optimistic about Wu De finding another grave of a great expert or relic of a strong martial artist anyti soon.
The tombs of great experts and relics of strong martial artists were surely extrely secretive; finding one was a stroke of fortune that ca once in a millennium, a twist of fate.
How could it be easy to find a second, a third, or even more?
But on second thought, Wu De was a naturally gifted tomb-robbing genius.
He even discovered the grave of an Innate Expert like Zhuge Dingtian, which was hidden under a hill.
Perhaps he might indeed co across so great opportunities in the future?
A familiar aura approached from afar; Fang Bai turned to look, only to see Ghost Hand soaring down from the mountain and quickly arriving at his side.
“Is everything taken care of?”
Fang Bai asked indifferently.
“Yes, twenty-seven Profound Level experts, plus Elder Taoist Qingling previously killed by Master, all twenty-eight Qingcheng Temple experts who participated in the massacre at Myriad dicine Valley, have been fully executed,”
Ghost Hand reported respectfully.
“Misty Rain Tower’s eighteen n, Qingcheng Temple’s twenty-seven…
Do you feel that having these people die at your hands ans you’re cold-hearted and evil, and therefore you’re burdened with guilt?”
Seeing Ghost Hand’s serious and solemn expression, Fang Bai asked again.
Ghost Hand shook his head and said, “No!
Master once said that if killing one evildoer who deserves to die could save ten or even more innocent lives, then we must act decisively.
Otherwise, the evildoer will continue to commit atrocities, harming even more innocent lives.
Those from Misty Rain Tower and Qingcheng Temple, having committed the massacre at Myriad dicine Valley, could do it a second or third ti…
Their hands are stained with fresh blood, they are deeply sinful and deserve to die!”
Fang Bai nodded and said, “Then why do you look so troubled?”
“I…”
Ghost Hand glanced at Fang Bai, hesitated, and then stopped short.
Fang Bai smiled and said, “It’s alright; whatever you want to say, just say it.”
Ghost Hand said, “Among the three major sects that attacked Myriad dicine Valley, the disciples of Misty Rain Tower and Qingcheng Temple were the ones who took action and killed people; they were the principal offenders.
The Shaolin disciples withdrew midway, which makes them accessories to the cri.
So, I was thinking…”
“You were thinking of letting off the Shaolin disciples?”
“No!”
Ghost Hand said, “Master has also said that we martial artists must act with clear distinctions between gratitude and grudges.
The Shaolin disciples were among the participants in that massacre.
Since they have made mistakes, they must be punished!
It’s just that the Shaolin disciples did not kill the disciples of Myriad dicine Valley, so I believe their punishnt can be sowhat lighter…”
“As for the Shaolin disciples, how to punish them and to what extent is up to you; you have complete authority.
I will not interfere.”
Fang Bai observed Ghost Hand’s expression and listened to the tone of his speech; he knew that the actions of Misty Rain Tower and Qingcheng Temple had fully vented the killing intent and resentnt in Ghost Hand’s heart.
As for the Shaolin disciples, who had not stained their hands with the blood of Myriad dicine Valley disciples, he did not wish to strike them down rcilessly.
Fang Bai silently nodded in approval, agreeing with Ghost Hand’s approach in his heart.
For a martial artist, it’s comndable to be decisive in killing and to indulge in passions of gratitude and grudges, as it aids in the cultivation of a martial artist’s state of mind.
However, blind killing and an overly heavy heart of slaughter can easily lead one onto the Demon Dao and turn good intentions into bad actions.
Still, the Shaolin disciples, though their cris did not warrant death, could not be easily let off.
Ghost Hand ant that the Shaolin party must go, and those participants had to receive appropriate punishnt, as a warning.
“Thank you, Master, for your indulgence.”
Ghost Hand had been worried that his master would reprimand him for being too lenient, but hearing him speak thus, he could not help but heave a sigh of relief and bowed deeply to Fang Bai.
……
Just a few days after the Profound Level experts from Jiangnan’s Misty Rain Tower were slaughtered, the Profound Level experts of Qingcheng Temple also all perished.
When this news spread, Huaxia’s Secular Ancient Martial World, which had not yet settled from the Misty Rain Tower incident, was thrown into another massive upheaval.
So individuals and forces associated with these two great Ancient Martial Sect families felt an unprecedented crisis.
So shut themselves away and refused to go out, others scrambled to gather information, and yet others ford temporary alliances to face any potential crises together.
Almost everyone believed that Misty Rain Tower and Qingcheng Temple must have provoked a certain Hidden Sect power, leading to their downfall.
Decades ago, an expert erged from the Hidden Sect and caused significant destruction to the Secular World.
This later led to the establishnt of the “Dragon Guard” to counter the threats from the Hidden Sect.
Now, with the successive incidents of the slaughter of Profound Level Experts from Misty Rain Tower and Qingcheng Temple, could it be that so powerful experts from the Hidden Sect, unable to remain content in obscurity, had co to stir up the Secular World?
For a ti, the entire Secular Ancient Martial World of Huaxia was in turmoil, with everyone feeling insecure and speculating about who the “Hidden Sect Expert’s” next target might be.
