Guarding the Prison for 100 Years, I Emerge to Overwhelm the Demon Venerable

Or the thoughts of Demon Fiends, devils, and monsters!

Or, to put it simply, any karma connected to him!

In the past, he had to deduce them step by step.

But now, with Divine Thoughts as formidable as his, that was no longer necessary.

WHOOSH!

With a mere turn of his Thoughts, the myriad auras before him swiftly peeled away from one another.

Finally, a single, faint wisp was revealed.

This wisp of aura was barely perceptible, as if it might dissipate at any moment. It was utterly feeble.

Among all the auras, it was in the weakest tier.

’So weak?’

Su Bai raised an eyebrow slightly, reaching out to grasp the wisp of aura that flowed from the void.

He began to trace it back to its source!

He wanted to see what was behind it.

BZZZT!!

The moment Su Bai grasped that wisp of aura, a ball of light exploded before his eyes!

Then, countless scenes emerged, unfolding like a vivid scroll painting.

The Da Yu Capital City, Yu Province, Jian Province, Wu Province, the Desolate Province...

In a mere instant, it had spanned ten Great Provinces, finally revealing a land of mountains and ranges.

"Hm?"

Just then, Su Bai felt a stir in his heart and crushed the wisp of aura.

BOOM!

At almost the same moment, a thunderous crash resounded by his ear, and the countless scenes vanished from his sight in an instant.

An indescribably terrifying aura severed all connections, throwing the auras of the entire world into chaos.

Su Bai’s expression remained unchanged, as if this was not unexpected. His gaze was distant as he fell into thought.

’Was that... Ling Province?’

Although he was interrupted, he had not come away empty-handed from that fleeting glimpse.

The minuscule aura that had stirred his heart must be in Ling Province.

However, if It truly did not want him to spy on that wisp of aura, It certainly wouldn’t have let him see Ling Province so easily.

’Is It trying to create a diversion to hide Its true purpose, or does It have another motive?’

’This Heaven... it really has become sentient!’

As these thoughts ran through his mind, Su Bai lowered a finger and tapped the God-Sealing Platform.

"Master?"

A current of air materialized, and a young Daoist Nun, treading on a cloud, ascended the God-Sealing Platform. She bowed slightly and said,

"What are your instructions?"

Five years had passed, and the little girl from back then had matured a great deal.

Ye Xiaoyu’s innate talent was excellent. Otherwise, she would not have been chosen as the spare vessel for that Void Realm Daoist Nun from the Gui Chen Sect.

And under Su Bai’s guidance, Ye Xiaoyu had already broken through to the Dao Palace Realm. If Su Bai hadn’t been deliberately suppressing her cultivation, she would have likely succeeded in her tribulation long ago and entered the Nine Tribulations Realm.

Compared to Cui Yanliang, who was left to roam freely, Ye Xiaoyu had spent much more time with Su Bai.

However, although she also cultivated the Boxing Scripture Beginning Chapter, she did not choose the Fist Dao, but rather the Sword Dao.

It was not a choice she could make. Long before Su Bai met her, the Gui Chen Sect had already planted the Sword Seed of that Daoist Nun within her.

Otherwise, she couldn’t have served as a spare body for that Daoist Nun of the Gui Chen Sect.

"Leave the affairs of the Daoist Temple and the Celestial Patrol Bureau to the Fan Xin Daoist Child. You need to make a trip to Ling Province."

Su Bai instructed, looking at his disciple.

Whether it was a deliberate diversion or part of some other scheme, it was bound to leave a trace.

The will of Heaven is hard to fathom, but the human heart is harder still.

Even if that Heaven has become sentient, it is still not human.

"Ling Province?"

"Didn’t Senior Brother already pacify Ling Province a few years ago? The new laws have been in effect for nearly five years. Could it be that someone is knowingly breaking them again?"

"The Celestial Patrol Bureau has found nothing."

Ye Xiaoyu frowned slightly.

For five years, Cui Yanliang, with Jin Yunfeng’s assistance, had traveled the world implementing the new laws. She, naturally, hadn’t been idle either.

During these five years, she had presided over the Boxing Saint Daoist Temple and co-founded the Celestial Patrol Bureau with the Fan Xin Daoist Child, the disciple of Huaisheng Daoist from the Netherworld Daoist Temple.

They had gathered many Loose Cultivators from across the Thirteen Provinces of the World who had no record of evil deeds, as well as the Boxing Saint Dao Disciples who had matured in recent years.

Together, they monitored the world to prevent anyone from knowingly breaking the newly established laws and committing great evils.

She was well aware of the state of affairs in the world.

"I have suppressed your cultivation for two years and prevented you from undergoing your tribulation. This trip to Ling Province is the perfect opportunity."

Su Bai added.

Ye Xiaoyu’s talent was excellent, and with his guidance, her rate of progress was even faster than Cui Yanliang’s.

However, she had suffered a great disaster in her youth that left a flaw in her disposition. Still, with her talent, she would have been able to pass her tribulation two years ago.

But the flaw would not have vanished; it would only have been buried deeper.

Hearing the word "tribulation," Ye Xiaoyu no longer hesitated. She bowed slightly and accepted:

"I obey, Master!"

"When you go to Ling Province, first mobilize the forces of the Celestial Patrol Bureau to monitor the entire province. You must personally review every matter, big or small, without omission."

Here, Su Bai paused for a moment before continuing,

"Pay special attention to whether anyone in Ling Province has experienced a sudden change in temperament, a breakthrough in their Realm, a meteoric rise, or has suddenly disappeared..."

"Ah?"

"Go on."

Su Bai waved his hand, closed his eyes, and said no more.

Whether it was a deliberate diversion, a trap being laid for him, or an attempt to hide something, he didn’t care.

The world is like water; a falling stone will inevitably create ripples and stir waves.

Any chaos will be laid bare under absolute order.

Hiding anything would be extremely difficult.

He had spent five years establishing Mountain Gods and Land Gods, Sea Gods and River Gods, implementing the new laws, and restructuring the order of the mortal world, from the Human Dao to the Divine Dao.

It was like setting out a Go board with no stones.

If Heaven wants to place a stone, it must still follow my will!
