With Cultivation Simulator in a Chaotic World-Chapter 124 - 123: Counsel and Youth

Later, it merged into the floor below, the Celestial Demon Dance was absorbing something from them.

But... what does it matter?

The Chunyi Pavilion is backed by the Ye Family, one of the four great families of Mingwu City.

Compared to the Ye Family, the Xun Family is far behind.

It’s said that the Ye Family even has experts at the Red Body Level, which in cultivation terms is at least a Foundation Establishment Powerhouse.

Not to mention the deep-rooted connections of the Ye Family in Mingwu City; Jiang Ming even suspected that the higher-ups of Mingwu City were aware of this matter.

Moreover, the affairs of Chunyi Pavilion are minor.

After living here for two months, Jiang Ming could basically confirm that behind Longevity Temple and Great Compassion Temple there must be secrets, which might be the greatest secrets of Mingwu City.

A huge black web shrouds the bustling Mingwu City.

If outsiders wish to unveil this black web, they face only obliteration.

However, Jiang Ming doesn’t intend to take risks personally.

With a simulator at hand, Jiang Ming just needs to keep simulating and advance to the end of the Immortal Dao, and when that time comes, Jiang Ming can change this world openly with absolute power.

So, under normal circumstances, Jiang Ming doesn’t intend to meddle in these affairs.

However, this Daoist from the Main City might serve as a test to gather more information.

"Good!"

At this moment, the surrounding guests seemed to awaken, with smiles adorning their faces; some even drooled without realizing it.

"This is Noble Qi."

"What is that..."

"A person is composed of soul, body, and breath. Noble Qi is a type of breath, much like Yang Qi, Yin Qi, and Essence Qi, which are easy to understand."

Bi Zhu waved his hand pointing at the frenziedly joyous people around, saying, "You can clearly see that none of these people are not scions of aristocratic or wealthy families."

"The Noble Qi on them is second only to that of the great family heirs, a thousand commoners couldn’t compare to one of them."

"This Chunyi Pavilion is absorbing the Noble Qi from them."

Jiang Ming slightly squinted his eyes, asking, "Why is that?"

"I don’t know, but surely it’s not good; someone... is corroding the lives of Great Lii’s citizens..." A cold glint flashed in Bi Zhu’s eyes.

"This is something I absolutely won’t permit."

"Won’t permit? How can Shuchen Temple behind you compare to the entirety of Mingwu City?"

Bi Zhu was silent for a moment.

"Daoist Master, still it’s best to cultivate diligently; wait until your cultivation is sufficiently advanced, then you will have the qualifications to overturn the table."

Bi Zhu suddenly said, "But there are some things that must be done."

Jiang Ming lightly smiled, saying nothing more.

He said, "Hongyi, let’s go."

"Yes, sir."

By this time, the items on the table had been consumed.

Bi Zhu could only watch Jiang Ming’s departing back and sighed.

After the surrounding guests left with lingering relish, Bi Zhu rather stood up, wanting to step into the depths of Chunyi Pavilion.

At this moment, a chill suddenly appeared behind him.

It seemed there was something watching him from within Chunyi Pavilion.

.........

Longevity Temple, built atop the only mountain in the city, Longevity Peak.

Around Longevity Peak is a stretch of green for five miles, yet this place is not outside the city, but within the prime real estate of Mingwu City.

Longevity Temple is a magnificent hall, with scattered palaces amidst the perilous peaks, and there are no roads connecting the palace complex to the foothills.

Ordinary mortals absolutely cannot enter Longevity Temple.

And at this moment, two figures arose elegantly, flying towards the pillar-strewn palace complex.

"Master, Master, why are we coming to Longevity Temple?"

One figure is a lean elder in a Taoist robe, the other is a handsome youth in plain clothes.

"Naturally, we come seeking assistance."

"Longevity Temple holds sway over the Daoist School in several surrounding cities; to deal with Great Compassion Temple, we must rely on Longevity Temple."

"We, Anxin Temple, are just a small temple in a small town, what qualifications do we have to tackle them."

"Tianming, you must remember, no matter how frustrating the matter you encounter, if your power is insufficient, you must endure; wait until you have power..."

The lean elder, maintaining a calm breath, flew through the mountains with the boy, speaking in guidance.

Tianming’s eyes flashed with fear and anger.

Following his master to visit Mingwu City, in a post station outside the city, he discovered something utterly terrifying, a thing more than enough to shatter Tianming’s worldview.

Fear swiftly ran from Tianming’s eyes, chased away by anger, he said, "The Great Compassion Temple is supposed to be a great temple of the Buddhist Sect, how could it commit such deeds! I knew it, what Buddhist Sect, it’s clearly the Demon Sect!"

"Alright, Tianming, things are not always so absolute; the world has both darkness and light; your parents named you Tianming hoping you could see more of the bright spots."

"Yes, Master."

The lean elder nodded with satisfaction.

Yet, his eyes revealed a trace of gloom.

The Golden Relics of Great Compassion Temple came about this way, disturbingly discovered by his unintentional slip.

Seeing much more, the elder was not as reactive as the youth; what he feared most is Great Compassion Temple might silence them.

This circumstance means only Longevity Temple can help them.

"Anxin Temple’s Master Hongming greets fellow Daoist."

The elder and youth flew to the palace front, bowing to Longevity Temple.

Longevity Temple’s doors opened automatically.

The youth glanced at the endless darkness, inexplicably growing fear in his heart.

Still clutching the elder’s robe corner, the youth followed him inside.

"Ah————"

A scream sounded.

The scream abruptly ceased.

"Bang."

It seemed something heavy hit the ground.

In the next second, all returned to silence.

Even the palace’s doors did not shake in the slightest.

Two expressionless Daoists opened the doors, casually cleaning.

On the ground, bits of flesh and dust mixed; the Daoists swept them off the cliff.

The breeze blew through the mountain, with Longevity Temple standing on the perilous peak, ethereal Immortal Qi wafting.

Leaves fell, drifting through long pines on the mountain, alighting at the foothills.

At the mountain’s base, strands of gray air cloaked, slowly weaving a figure like crafting a doll.

It turned out to be the boy named Tianming.

"How is it possible..."

"How is it possible!"

"Master! No! Master."

"Longevity Temple... Great Compassion Temple..."

The boy murmured in his mouth, slowly standing up, he turned to gaze at the high Longevity Temple, eyes blazing with fury.

"I, Li Tianming vow to banish you all, including the darkness of this world; I want... genuine dawn!"

In the boy’s consciousness, a scorching flash suddenly flickered.

If someone with profound cultivation were here, they surely could recognize this as traces of a fire from the heart...

.........

"Simulation Points... Simulation Points..."

"Strangely enough, no formidable entities were outside the city; how many years and months will it take for me to accumulate enough Simulation Points and Spirit Points this way?"

A figure in a black robe sighed, passing through the city gates, then like a bat swiping over grass, flying into darkness.
