Absolutely Calm
The spherical Circle Core suddenly stopped rotating in the azure space, and at the same time, the outside time also stopped at this moment.
Fortunately, the stagnation was extremely short, and no one noticed it except for Chi Tian.
"What happened?"
Chi Tian frowned. Due to his previous promise, he did not enter the earth’s core to find out what was going on.
"You really deserve to be a descendant of the Undying Clan. Even if you see the hope I give you in desperate situations, you are still very calm, unlike a native."
The will from the Circle Core suddenly became clearer, as if a person suddenly appeared and whispered in Su Li’s ear.
Su Li had cold sweat on her forehead, but she wore a smile on her face.
"I can’t do a loss-making business. Either we all die together, or… you can come up with a way to get the best of both worlds for me to consider."
After saying that, Su Li’s five senses returned, and she left the Circle Core without saying anything.
A gentleman did not stand under a dangerous wall!
A human face appeared on the surface of the Circle Core, "Clansman of Undying Clan, I admire your wisdom, and we can work together as equals."
Su Li looked cold, "The premise of equal cooperation is information equivalence."
"I am infected by Death Region and cannot interfere with the operation of Chimo Circle." The human face showed helplessness, "I can tell you everything I know, in exchange for your trust."
Then the Circle Core space fell into a long silence.
Su Li knew that every word she wanted to ask next came at a cost, so she had to be cautious.
The human face was not in a hurry and waited silently. She did look down on Su Li before and intended to bombard Su Li with a lot of information, enticing Su Li to become her agent of natural law.
That would indeed enhance Su Li’s strength to the level of the Great Emperor, but it would make Su Li become her puppet who had no independent consciousness. Then Su Li would be unable to leave Chimo Circle and had to serve as her servant forever.
Such a ritual required one’s own volition, otherwise it would not succeed.
Su Li was so conscious that it surprised her. She had no other choice but to cooperate.
As for why she didn’t choose Chi Tian to become her agent of natural law… Their dimensions were different. It was like the case where the domestic livestock could not withstand the intelligence of the Human Clan.
Chi Tian’s life level was too low.
When two hours had passed in silence, Su Li took a deep breath and finally asked the first question, "How can I get rid of Bai Mo?"
She deliberately asked a very general question. The broader the question was, the more information she could get from the Circle Core.
The Circle Core saw through Su Li’s mind at a glance, but her ploy had failed before. At this moment, she needed to show her sincerity, so she had to suppress her discomfort and say,
"I don’t know much about Bai Mo. The only thing I can be sure of is that the sudden disappearance of the natural law I cultivated back then was probably related to him."
Su Li suddenly looked more serious, "That is to say, he is the initiator of the destruction of Chimo Circle?"
"Yes."
The Circle Core wore a complicated look, "My sister was likely to be suppressed after being deceived by Bai Mo, so I lost contact with her. Bai Mo controlled the natural law of Qingshui Circle. The Destroy Thunder was not strong in the immortal level, but for Ling Qingshui who was seriously injured that year, there was no means to fight against it.
All living creatures were for profit, and Bai Mo was no exception. Over the years, I have been thinking about his purpose, but I still can’t figure it out. It may involve higher-level things that I can’t understand. Fortunately, he was not strong, so you still have a chance.
I can’t help you much, but my help is what you need most."
Just then, the blue pneuma began to surge, forming a Star Gate.
Su Li’s pupils shrank slightly, "Star Path?"
"Yes."
The Circle Core’s voice echoed within the space, and the blue pneuma fluttered like catkins, "Maybe you don’t understand, but the first to go through the Star Path is the supreme of all circles. Your realm is stuck at the most critical part. If you can go through the Star Path and return successfully, your strength will surely improve a lot. And with me,
"The superposition of the pneuma fortune of two circles…"
Su Li thought about it, but she did not enter the Star Gate recklessly, "It took me six years to go through the Star Path last time, but now I only have one year or even less."
"Entering it is bound to be risky."
The Circle Core almost sighed, "I can’t guarantee that you can come back in time, but if you don’t try, you are not the opponent of Bai Mo. His secret skills are far superior to yours, and you can only… break all laws with one power!"
"Even you don’t have as many secret skills as he does?"
"Yes."
The Circle Core admitted frankly. Su Li couldn’t help thinking about Bai Mo’s life level. Bai Mo came from the starry sky. Since he possessed more profound knowledge than the Circle Core, did it mean that Bai Mo was also a higher-level life?
Suddenly, Su Li raised her head with her hands crossed behind the back, "I need to prepare before going through the Star Path."
"If you make up your mind, you can come here again, and the Star Gate will always remain open."
After the Circle Core finished speaking, the human face on the surface disappeared and everything returned to normal.
Su Li gently breathed, hid her emotions, and then turned around to leave the earth’s core.
Hearing the noise, Chi Tian approached and met Su Li. Then he was shocked, "Why did you get out?"
"I need a lot of black stones from Death Region."
Staring at Chi Tian, Su Li said in a deep voice, "The more the better, and the sooner the better!"
Chi Tian was taken aback by her energy. Although he was curious about what she knew from the Circle Core within a short period of time, he did not ask and turned around to prepare.
After a while, a specially cleared hall was filled with black stones. Bing Feng, who had contact with Su Li in Ma Camp, was responsible for this matter.
"Grand Elder Su, Master said that you can do your best. All the King Warriors of Thousand Cities Camp and Hundred Cities Camp are all out to collect the black stones! If we can’t collect them as fast as you need, Master will also do it personally!"
Bing Feng said with a smile. Su Li nodded and turned around, and her tiny figure was quickly submerged in the black stones.
"Grand Elder Su was really strange. Why is she obsessed with the black stones from Death Region? Does she want to rely on devouring Death Region to save Chimo Circle? It is too exaggerated…"
Bing Feng was puzzled. Due to his limited realm, he would not understand the reason. He turned around and was about to collect more black stones. Suddenly, there was an explosion behind him. He looked back in shock and saw the slender figure reappear in the white stone powder.
In just a few breaths, all the black stones were absorbed?
Bing Feng swallowed hard. Seeing Su Li’s inquiring expression, he nodded quickly, "I’m going to find the Master!"
Looking at the back of Bing Feng as he left, Su Li looked down at her hands in thought.
After catalyzing two Black Lotus Swords, she absorbed the energy of Death Region more quickly. The speed was improved hundreds of times, which was out of her expectation.
"It saves a lot of time."
Su Li’s eyes were bright. Was it because of the pneuma fortune at work?
"With me, you can become lucky enough…"
Su Li recalled what the Circle Core had said.
"No, this is the rule of Death Region, the talent of the body of evil ghost. It has nothing to do with the Circle Core."
Su Li calmed down. Looking at the door of the hall, she saw Chi Tian walking in. Seeing the stone powder in the hall, Chi Tian felt amazed. Then as he reached for his universe ring, black stones poured out continuously, quickly refilling the entire hall.
"I have commanded all King Warriors to collect black stones, so you don’t have to worry."
Chi Tian said in a low and firm tone. As Su Li looked at him, she suddenly felt some pity for him in her heart. But without showing it apparently, she said softly,
"Thanks a lot."
…
The study room was dotted with spiritual flowers that were not easily cultivated, which were fragrant and refreshing yet not overpowering.
But at the moment, Bai Su, who was sitting in the room, frowned slightly. His eyebrows were slightly hurt when he saw the information sent by Tianyake Attic of every region.
Bai Mo’s purpose was so obscure that he had no way of knowing it. So he could only infer the next action of the Fate Palace with a lot of information.
Therefore, all the information in the eighty-one great regions of Qingshui Circle that was related to unusual situations was presented to Bai Su’s desk, but he obviously overestimated his ability. Seeing a mountainous pile of jade slips on the desk, he could only secretly sigh and then continued to read.
Fortunately, after several days of tireless efforts, he finally saw some results, which prevented him from doubting himself.
He stretched his body and cleared a clean area on the desk. Then he accurately picked out a jade slip from the pile and placed it first.
"Several mortal villages outside the city of Jiuli Region were inexplicably destroyed, probably by monsters."
Mortals were weak, like mayflies in the cultivation circle, and they might perish at every turn. It was normal for such information to be placed in Tianyake Attic’s files, but Bai Su obviously did not think so at this moment.
He took out the second and third jade slips, which recorded similar accidents where mortals were exterminated and their villages and cities were destroyed.
Bai Su didn’t stop until the clean area was filled up such jade slips. His expression was solemn.
The time interval between these jade slips was no more than two days. In just two days, on average, more than five mortal settlements were destroyed in each great region.
"The explanation that monsters are out there may not work anymore."
Bai Su’s fingertips tapped the table. This cultivation circle was not suitable for monsters to survive in this age. Although there were still one or two big monsters in each great region, they would not eat mortals secretly because they had a bigger appetite.
Bai Su changed his thought and pinched his knuckles, trying to get inspiration through astrology divination, but this time it was in chaos and nothing was seen.
If Bai Mo knew that someone was ruining his plan, how could he be unprepared?
Bai Su was not surprised. The crisis Hua Yan had sensed last time was resolved, which meant that he had taken the right step. All the triggers were hidden in the Reincarnation Mirror which was also covered by his astrology. So even if Bai Mo mastered the rules, he was still unable to bring down the thunder.
For thousands of years, Bai Mo had rarely participated in the fight personally except in that battle with Ling Qingshui.
Next, it was likely that Bai Mo would still take advantage of the rules of natural law. What could he use as a trigger to bring down the thunder…
As Bai Su thought about it, his pupils suddenly shrank when he saw the jade slips on the table.
