Calamity of Tomorrow-Chapter 340 - 339 Potential Growth
Jin Xiang and his companions walked around the arena and could see the filth continuously filling up beneath their feet. However, as they turned their heads, they noticed that the filth behind them would soon be clean again.
"How can it all disappear?" Jin Xiang wiped his mouth, his eyes flashing with a hint of panic, "Could it be?!"
Zhou Bai, however, paid no attention to what these traitors were thinking. He simply moved forward with the Catastrophe Domain in operation and, while maintaining a balance of income and expenditure, kept on harvesting their luck.
"It seems like the key to achieving a balance of income and expenditure is the number of people. As long as there are enough people, the goods will be plentiful. I can completely achieve a balanced budget, and if there are even more people, I can make a profit. I’m able to harvest luck while earning lazy energy points."
Watching the wisps of white energy stream out of their bodies and be absorbed into his own sea of consciousness, Zhou Bai was gleefully excited, "I wonder just how much my Primordial Spirit’s potential can be enhanced by harvesting like this."
At this moment, Zhou Bai was becoming more eager to join the battlefield. If he could use the Guihai Heisha in the midst of the dense Heavenly Demon troops, just thinking about it made him feel like he was going to make a killing.
Christina: "Why just use shit on them, and Guihai Heisha on the Heavenly Demons?"
Zhou Bai said, "Tina, you’ve made the wrong choice of methods again. For secret operations, you can use shit, but for open and fair fights, of course, you use Guihai Heisha."
Meanwhile, as Zhou Bai harvested luck so frantically, the traitors’ faces were already gleaming black in his line of sight.
Suddenly, a man stumbled and fell to the ground with a loud thump, immediately taking a big mouthful of filth. He quickly propped himself up and vomited, which made Zhou Bai exclaim, "What are you doing! You’ve dirtied the goods on the ground, the purity is so poor, how am I supposed to deal with this?"
Jin Xiang watched Zhou Bai in shock, feeling like he had heard something utterly terrifying.
But in Zhou Bai’s view, the filth produced by the Catastrophe Domain could immediately be sold. However, the vomit these men had expelled would have to undergo some procedures to dispose of.
Wondering whether to pick up the vomit with his Primordial Spirit power, Zhou Bai pondered for about three seconds before deciding to give up and directly asked the man, "Can you give me these things you’ve vomited out, is that okay?"
"What?"
"I said give them to me! Did you hear me?"
The man said with a face full of horror, "Oh... oh, oh, yes, I’ll give them all to you."
The people around looked at the masked eccentric in front of them, each with a different expression on their faces.
Only then did Zhou Bai sell all the filth on the ground. Just at that moment, another traitor slid and fell to the ground, hitting his head and passing out.
Frowning, Zhou Bai soon found that these twenty or more traitors were having too many accidents and could no longer continue production to satisfy the needs of the Catastrophe Domain.
"Could this sudden burst of collective misfortune be due to the Catastrophe Domain’s reduction of luck?"

Zhou Bai couldn’t confirm the internal connection, but it was indeed hard to continue; after all, he didn’t want to use up all his lazy energy points. Moreover, as the Catastrophe Domain attacked, he found that he couldn’t extract much luck from these traitors anymore.
"It seems like everyone’s luck has a limit and can’t provide an infinite supply."
With that thought, Zhou Bai knocked all the traitors unconscious and then carved on the ground beside them the act of their being Heavenly Demon traitors and leaking intelligence.
"Tina."
Christina: "Understood."
Then she saw a slight shift in the spiritual mechanism, Zhou Bai’s figure flickered once, and then he completely disappeared into thin air, just as if he had become invisible or was sneaking away.
This was an ability of the Shadow Inheritor Technique that Christina had cultivated, which could conceal both form and breath. Here, it was used to aid Zhou Bai, fitting the situation perfectly.
After all, Zhou Bai did not wish to reveal all his cards. It was enough to leave the situation here for the people of Leiyin Temple to handle themselves. Apart from him, only Zhao Shouyi and Ying Hui in Beihai City knew of the attack. Unless they spoke out, Leiyin Temple would not figure it out and would likely think it was the same person who had attacked Immortal Ming Yue.
...
Returning to his room, Zhou Bai lay on the bed, looking at the strands of fate in his sea of consciousness with a hint of satisfaction on his face, then he began to activate his Catastrophe Primordial Spirit to devour these strands of fate.
As the strands of white fate were devoured by Zhou Bai’s Catastrophe Primordial Spirit, a wonderfully refreshing sensation rose within his Primordial Spirit, making Zhou Bai feel as if his Primordial Spirit had taken a powerful tonic. It even began to slightly expand, emitting a crystal-clear radiance.
Over three hours passed, and when the artificial sunlight outside faintly brightened, Zhou Bai had completely absorbed this wave of fate and felt a great sense of relief in his Primordial Spirit. After the potential increase, the upper limit of his Primordial Spirit’s power had also greatly increased.
’My current upper limit for Primordial Spirit power has probably increased by about 14 points, reaching around 4025,’ Zhou Bai thought, feeling moved: "It seems that not all fate is created equal. I squeezed so much fate from these traitors for so long, yet it barely compares to the slight amount of fate from Immortal Ming Yue."
However, immortals were not someone Zhou Bai could attack at will at the moment. He was looking forward very much to the fate of the Heavenly Demon.
After breakfast in the morning, Ying Hui came to find him, tossing three cards in front of Zhou Bai: "These are the points I’ve earned from this tournament, ten thousand points each. Make good use of them."
Seeing Ying Hui’s proud expression, Zhou Bai looked at the point cards with some surprise and asked, "Where did you get so many points from?"
Ying Hui chuckled: "I earned them with my own abilities, of course. Hurry up and take them, don’t let others see."
’30,000 points?’ Zhou Bai was amazed internally: ’If I exchange all of them for materials and then sell them for laziness value... Let me calculate... That would be at least 600,000 laziness value.’
"You’re giving them all to me?" Zhou Bai said, "Why don’t you keep some for yourself?"
Ying Hui waved his hand dismissively: "I’m just a cripple who can’t cultivate, you need these points more than I do right now."
Speaking, Ying Hui sighed: "I’m old and haven’t got much skill, I’ve been stuck in the sixth realm all my life. With your current level, I probably won’t be able to guide you much in the future. Heh, I can only try to get you some more points. You should cultivate well, Zhou Bai, we’re all counting on you.
And don’t worry, these points I earned are clean, you can use them with peace of mind."
Ying Hui patted Zhou Bai on the shoulder and turned to leave, but halfway through, he turned back: "Oh right, the principal is looking for you. It must be regarding the rewards for the inter-school competition, you better go see him."
Zhou Bai arrived at Zhao Shouyi’s room, knocked and entered, but saw Zhao Shouyi look at him somewhat surprised: "Zhou Bai? What brings you here?"
Zhou Bai: "Didn’t you have Teacher Ying Hui call me?"
Zhao Shouyi’s expression subtly changed, then relaxed: "I must’ve been too busy and forgot about it then. Since you’re here, let me tell you about the rewards for the inter-school competition."
Saying this, Zhao Shouyi presented Zhou Bai with a list of over ten pages: "This is the list of materials that Jijian Pavilion and Leiyin Temple are willing to offer. Take a look and see what you want."
Zhou Bai did not even look at the list and immediately said: "I want all of it."
