Chapter 102: Chapter 102, Bai Jin Arrives at Duobao Island

Bai Jin lazily lay in the lounge chair, picking up the juice next to him and started sipping. Sweet and fragrant, the Spiritual Energy rolled inside him, no worries made one feel light, everyone’s happy~

Shi Ji said from the side, "Senior Brother, there is something important!"

Zhao Gongming looked puzzled at Shi Ji, What’s the matter? How come I don’t know?

Shi Ji sat upright, saying earnestly, "Actually, I came specifically to find you, Senior Brother."

Bai Jin chuckled and said, "Junior Sister Shi Ji, don’t be so serious, relax a bit, speak slowly." He took another sip of the juice; the taste was really good.

"Master has taken on five thousand new disciples three days ago."

"Pfft~" Juice sprayed out of Bai Jin’s mouth as he quickly sat up, coughing repeatedly, and hastily asked, "What did you say? How many disciples?"

"The master has taken on more than five thousand new disciples!" Shi Ji said honestly.

Bai Jin only felt dizzy, Master, didn’t we agree before to discuss further before taking on new disciples? Didn’t we agree to be selective? And now just a few days after I left, you have taken five thousand disciples? Is this what you meant by being selective? Oh, Master! You disappointed me so much!!

Bai Jin caught his breath, suddenly stood up, and asked with a ferocious expression, "Have their identity cards been processed?"

Shi Ji shook his head honestly and said, "No!"

Bai Jin felt relieved inside, it’s still manageable since their identity cards haven’t been processed, his expression softened as he said, "You did well by not processing their identity cards."

Shi Ji hesitated, chuckled and said, "Actually, I was about to, but all the new disciples were taken away by Senior Brother Duobao, so they haven’t been processed yet."

Bai Jin turned and walked outside.

Shi Ji quickly stood up and asked, "Senior Brother, where are you going?"

"To the Biyou Palace!" Bai Jin replied without turning his head.

Shi Ji hurriedly called out, "Master isn’t in Biyou Palace, he went to Wa Emperor Heaven three days ago."

Bai Jin paused in his steps, suddenly confused, Went to Wa Emperor Heaven three days ago? Isn’t that when Second Master went there? Could it be that something is about to happen in the Three Realms?

Forget it, let it be, Bai Jin relaxed instantly inside. It’s actually easier with Master not around, he did not have the confidence to convince the disciple-collecting Master. Now that Master is not here, it’s actually easier.

Bai Jin asked, "Where did Senior Brother Duobao take these new disciples?"

Yun Xiao said, "They are all at Duobao Island, inside Senior Brother Duobao’s Tao Palace, listening to the eldest senior brother’s preaching."

Bai Jin nodded and flew outside.

Zhao Gongming hesitated, speaking softly, "Should we go help?"

Shi Ji shook her head and said, "Between Senior Brother and Duobao, where is our place to interfere?"

Zhao Gongming doubted and said, "Senior Brother Duobao can be quite domineering, can Senior Brother Bai Jin handle it? What if they end up fighting?"

Shi Ji confidently said, "Don’t worry! When we were at Kunlun Mountain, Bai Jin never lost."

Yun Xiao said smiling, "But following and watching should be fine."

Shi Ji nodded and said, "Then let’s follow and see."

The three immediately followed and flew away.

...

On the eastern side of Golden Turtle Island, an island stood erect, and if Golden Turtle Island was like a turtle, this island was like an egg, with a bald surface not at all pretty. At the center of the island, a pagoda towered, on it were several large characters - Duobao Tower, and the whole pagoda glowed brilliantly, illuminating the island like a Bright Pearl.

Bai Jin landed in front of the pagoda, looking at the characters on it, and stepped towards the inside.

Inside the pagoda, Senior Brother Duobao was seated in the main seat dressed in a Daoist robe, with a dense crowd of figures sitting cross-legged below him, each with green faces and sharp teeth, exuding demon Qi and demonic Qi. Some Outer Disciples, shimmering with Upper Pure Immortal Light, were sitting beside, among whom Gu Liang and Qiong Xiao Bixiao were conspicuously present.

"The person learning the Tao enters in five phases: the first phase is of the heart, active more and still less, thinking of myriad states, indecisive in choices, contemplative in thought, like a wild horse, such is the heart of the common man. The second phase of the heart, still less active more, reining in activity to enter stillness, the heart often scattered and hard to subdue, frequently needing reinforcement, and this marks the beginning of advancing in the Tao..."

What Duobao was teaching them was precisely the Dingguan Scripture that the Tongtian Sect Hierarch had earlier taught to the Jie Sect Disciples, for the practice of meditation at the entry level.

Below, more than five thousand newly entered disciples, each noddy and drowsy, scratching their heads and ears, completely unsettled; some even looked at Duobao with wariness, as if fearing being schemed against.

Qiong Xiao transmitted a message saying, "Junior Sister Gu Liang, we have already listened to this scripture many times, why are we still guarding here?"

Bixiao also transmitted a message saying, "Exactly! I’m already getting sleepy, let’s go out and play!"

A small tuft on Gu Liang’s head swayed as her eyes twinkled with intelligence, and she transmitted back, "We are infiltrating the enemy’s ranks, keeping an eye on every move of the enemy."

Qiong Xiao asked, "Then what?"

Gu Liang naturally replied through transmission, "Of course, we wait for Senior Brother Bai Jin to come back, and sell all this information to him. Senior Brother Bai Jin is very generous; we should be able to make a good amount of money."

Bixiao’s eyes lit up, quickly transmitting, "Sell to Senior Brother Bai Jin? For Merit Coins?"

Gu Liang nodded her head.

Bixiao’s face showed joy. She had long coveted Junior Sister Gu Liang’s Merit Money, and exclaimed admiringly, "Junior Sister, you’re so smart, coming up with such a money-making scheme."

The small tuft on Gu Liang’s head swayed again, displaying pride as she said, "Of course!"

Suddenly, Qiong Xiao transmitted a message, "I have a question, if we are all here, how will we know when Senior Brother returns?"

The small tuft on Gu Liang’s head suddenly stiffened, and the proud expression on her face froze. Yes, how would we know when Senior Brother comes back?

Step~

Step~

Step~

...

A series of footsteps came, disrupting the scripture narration.

Duobao frowned, and the voice of the scripture immediately halted, as over five thousand disciples instantly turned their heads towards the entrance, a mix of demonic Qi, demon Qi, and immortal light, making the atmosphere dark and terrifying.

Gu Liang lowered her head, saying in despair, "It’s over, Senior Brother has returned, days of effort all wasted."

Qiong Xiao and Bixiao also sighed.

Bai Jin entered from outside, gave a bow, and said cheerfully, "Greetings, Senior Brother!"

Duobao smiled and asked, "Where has Junior Brother Bai Jin been?"

"Thank you for your concern, Senior Brother. I’ve been gathering materials for building the Tao Palace."

"The matter of the Tao Palace is of great importance, and as the Jie Sect Outer Disciple Leader, your Tao Palace represents the face of our Jie Sect to some extent. It should not be treated casually. I still have some leftover materials here; do you need them, Junior Brother Bai Jin?"

A murmur arose among the more than five thousand newly entered disciples, Outer Disciple Leader! But this Outer Disciple Leader seemed quite poor, lacking even the materials to refine a Tao Palace.

Bai Jin smiled and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Senior Brother, but my Tao Palace has already been completed, you can keep those materials for yourself!"

Duobao smiled and said, "I hope it doesn’t have leaky tiles or roofs."

"Senior Brother is welcome to visit at any time!"
