Twisted Dreams-Chapter 101 - 73: Great Compassion Temple

Du Yangming looked at Li Yang with awe in his eyes.

The layperson watches the spectacle, the expert looks for the way.

This ability to open up a Sea of Spirit for a beast is certainly not a capacity meant for mere mortals.

Even if Du Yangming were to become a higher-tier Great Demon, he would still be unable to achieve this.

Such intricate and mysterious use of spiritual power techniques perhaps only a god could accomplish.

It’s just a pity.

This beast is a product of technology, cruel and violent by nature, and after opening up a Sea of Spirit it further degenerates into a mad beast with formidable power.

If it were an ordinary animal opening up a Sea of Spirit, it might be slightly better; it might even understand human nature.

This creature appears powerful but is useless, and if released, it may harm others.

Li Yang looked at the creature with a glint of amusement in his eyes.

In this world, there are no useless things, only operators who can’t utilize them.

Suddenly, Du Yangming remembered something and hurriedly spoke:

"Master, I have found the places you asked me to look for."

Li Yang had previously asked Du Yangming to search for several large graves.

Du Yangming, being a vampire, has an extra sensitivity to ancient tombs.

Actually, Li Yang, as the Death God, is much more attuned to Death Qi than Du Yangming; he just doesn’t want to waste time on these trivial matters.

Du Yangming took out a document from his bosom, respectfully handing it to Li Yang.

The blueprints in the document marked the locations of several tombs.

Li Yang took the document and mumbled:

"It’s time to test the results of this period.

The game of Spiritual Energy Revival should have a checkpoint.

Being stuck at Tier Three for so long, the transcendentals need to rise up."

...

In the evening, the setting sun shone through the lattice window, casting its rays onto the table.

Soft amber light covered Li Yang’s profile, making him seem like a knowledgeable writer as he diligently wrote in his notebook.

A very harmonious picture.

However, the content in Li Yang’s notebook is somewhat terrifying.

[Resurgence of Ancient Ruins].

"There are Spirit Plants and Mysterious Artifacts in the ancient ruins.

Those are opportunities to become a transcendental.

Inside the ruins, all electronic devices and firearms fail.

This is difficult, but spending time to set up restrictions can work, the Tree of Human Essence can achieve this.

Opportunities and risks coexist, there not only are opportunities to become transcendental in the ruins, but also fierce Magic Beasts."

Li Yang, as he wrote this, envisioned the little extraordinary snake in the laboratory.

Kong Qianqiu would create masses of powerful beasts, and then Li Yang would open up a Sea of Spirit for them.

These magic beasts are completely different from the monsters of the God Creation Organization; their power becomes apparent only when truly engaged.

Li Yang continued to write:

"The ancient ruins will be a catalyst for the rise of the transcendentals.

Some transcendentals entering the ruins will acquire treasures within, greatly enhancing their cultivation.

The gap between transcendentals can be widened in this manner.

As long as there is a gap, there will be competition."

Li Yang paused his pen, a curve appeared at the corner of his mouth:

"I imagine that not only the transcendentals and the authorities are interested in the ruins, but the God Creation Organization will rush in as well?"

After settling in the South Sea, Li Yang and Leon Jin remained peaceful.

The two, seemingly like fire and water, actually both wanted to devour each other, waiting for the other to make a move.

Whoever strikes first will be at a disadvantage.

If Li Yang strikes, the mysterious veil will be torn apart.

If Leon Jin strikes, he will be countered by Li Yang, the local snake.

Leon Jin confidently waited for Li Yang’s conspiracy, yet Li Yang boldly exhibited his overt strategy.

You, the God Creation Organization, want to go to the ruins?

The God Creation Organization, attempting to unearth transcendental secrets, has no reason not to go, right?

"Where should the location of the first ruin be chosen?"

Li Yang started looking in Du Yangming’s document.

In some respects, Li Yang is quite a lazy person.

If he can achieve multiple goals through one deed, he absolutely won’t do two deeds.

Catalyzing the growth of transcendentals and provoking the God Creation Organization into action, these are two goals.

In the end, Li Yang hopes to weave a story around this ruin.

Let people worldwide speculate and after deducing, believe firmly in the authenticity of the story.

The world view of the Extraordinary World will be decided by Li Yang alone.

To have this world aid him in Ascension to Divinity, the first thing Li Yang needs to achieve is ’Unity of Law’.

The transcendentals will never understand until death that their fate has long been controlled by others; they have always been ’domesticated’.

Li Yang searched the map for a while, his gaze settling on three words.

[Great Compassion Temple].

Located in Lejia City, the Great Compassion Temple has a bit of history.

Originally, there was a village beneath the Great Compassion Temple, and during a great famine, someone caught a plague turning the village into an abandoned one.

Later, some monks went to the Great Compassion Temple, but due to its remote location, it didn’t receive much incense.

Legend has it that countless evil spirits and demons are suppressed beneath the Great Compassion Temple.

Coincidentally, Du Yangming’s report clearly stated that there is an ancient tomb under the hill behind the Great Compassion Temple.

"The Great Compassion Temple suppressing evil spirits and demons seems to be a lie spread by the tomb’s owner.

He wanted to use the tale of demons to prevent tomb raiders from disturbing the grave.

He was probably a Buddhist, otherwise, why build a temple in front of the grave."

Li Yang analyzed as he reviewed the report.

The Great Compassion Temple is part of a local real estate development project and will soon be demolished.

"Your tomb will be discovered eventually; might as well give me a hand.

During the temple demolition, awaken the demons beneath it; this will certainly be interesting."

Li Yang closed his notebook, continuing to ponder:

"In novels or games, there is often a final reward within the ruins.

What should the reward be? Let me think...

No hurry, transporting a large number of magic beasts into the ancient tomb also requires some time.

Similarly, the current transcendentals in this world need to continue fermenting awhile."

...

Late at night, South Sea, West District.

After getting drunk, Cao Yi wandered the streets and alleys.

Since the major reshuffle of the top officials in South Sea, Cao Yi had become dejected.

He had a feeling that the current top officials in South Sea all had a peculiar connection among themselves.

This connection might not even be noticed by the top officials in South Sea themselves, yet Cao Yi just felt it.

Indeed, he felt correctly; most of the top officials in the South Sea were somehow related to the members of the Demon Club.

Cao Yi only felt that this city lacked a lot of fun.

He could refrain from being a lion, but he definitely didn’t want to be an ant.

After struggling for so many years, he powerlessly found that being the Director of the South Sea Public Security Bureau seemed to mean nothing.

Ultimately, he was still a little grasshopper, incapable of controlling his own destiny.

"Efforts seem to have lost their purpose."

Cao Yi leaned against a street lamp in the alley, staring at the distant skyscrapers in a daze.

"Help! No!! Help!"

The scream of a woman came from an alleyway.

Cao Yi shuddered, immediately sobering up.

The reason for striving for progress is not wanting to be an ant.

The reason for being a sheriff is finding it unbearable when bad people cause trouble.
