Suspected to Be a Little Extreme

The other deathmatch fighters' third-round Ability Pool were only Silver level. This level of ability itself couldn't produce any exaggerated effects, not to mention that it might become unusable at any time.

Therefore, none of the fighters present spent much time selecting Ability Pool from the third pool.

After quickly choosing an ability, the fighters present naturally all turned their attention to Lu Bai, who was examining the Immortal Dao Flower.

"What is the boss doing?"

"That flower, isn't it the 'Node' of this Deathmatch Arena?"

"Shh, keep your voice down, don't disturb the big boss."

The fighters looked at the radiant, Immortal Dao Flower with envy.

After all, the Deathmatch System provides real-time location information for the "Node," and the deathmatch participants can easily determine who holds the "Node" by comparing their locations.

However, despite their envy, no one dared to snatch anything from Lu Bai; at most, they would Observe in secret and indulge in their curiosity.

Lu Bai, of course, didn't care about what these fighters thought. With the power he had shown, he was confident that even if he just placed the Immortal Dao Flower on the ground, no one would dare to touch it.

He temporarily shifted his gaze from the Immortal Dao Flower and smiled at the crowd, saying, "Don't worry about me, everyone is free to do as they please."

After saying this, Lu Bai didn't wait for the responses from the fighters present, and turned his attention back to the Immortal Dao Flower, studying how to add restrictions to this "Node" as if no one else was there.

After he said that, none of the deathmatch fighters present dared to look at him any longer, and they all turned around and found a corner to squat in.

After hesitating for a moment, Li Mu also chose to leave silently.

Even though he felt he was already quite familiar with Lu Bai, he still didn't dare to disturb him.

Although Lu Bai always appeared kind, his terrifying power was undeniable; he held the power of life and death, and it was impossible for others not to be afraid.

The saying "serving a ruler is like serving a tiger" refers to this reason.

Mission accomplished.

Lu Bai let out a long sigh of relief and returned the Immortal Dao Flower in his hand to his Primordial Spirit.

He looked up at the sky and realized that the sun was already high in the sky.

Simply adding restrictions to the Immortal Dao Flower wouldn't take that long.

He was mostly checking for any omissions, since if he had already left the Deathmatch Arena, there would be no chance to fix any problems that arose.

Using the Great Evolution Immortal Art several times in a row, this supernatural power of predicting the future was quite a burden for him.

"Next, as long as we send this Immortal Dao Flower away, this Deathmatch Showdown should be over, right?"

Lu Bai stood up, stretched his not-so-stiff hands and feet, looked around, and muttered to himself, "So, who should I give it to?"

Several candidates flashed through his mind.

Yuxu Zi, the Third Supreme of the Golden Scale Holy Land, the Sect Master of the Taishi Sect...

It seems like it's fine to give it to anyone.

Anyway, with the restrictions he added, no matter who it's given to, the other party won't dare to mess around.

Of course, emotionally speaking, he was more inclined to side with Yuxu Zi.

Unfortunately, the Sect Master of the Qingwang Sect was only at the Integration stage.

Leaving aside Lu Bai, the first Celestial Venerable, it would be more appropriate to assign the title of Second Celestial Venerable to a powerful being in the Mahayana stage.

After all, he had just adjusted the social structure of the Cultivation World, and choosing a powerful successor was essential to ensure a smooth transition.

Should we still choose that Grand Elder from the Golden Scale Holy Land?

Unable to make up his mind, Lu Bai simply sent messages to all the Mahayana stage cultivators in the Inspection Team, asking them to the Qingwang Sect to see him.

He notified more than ten cultivators at the Mahayana stage in succession. During this process, he couldn't help but mutter, "It seems there are still a lot of Mahayana stage in the Cultivation World right now."

Proportionally speaking, it's actually not that many.

The number of living beings in the entire Xuanzhou is well over a billion, and what about the cultivators who have reached the Mahayana stage?

There are only a few dozen of them, each with a name, and more than half of them are nearing the end of their lives and facing the five signs of decay.

In order to uphold the spirit of humanitarianism, Lu Bai did not recruit these aging Mahayana stage into the Inspection Team.

The problem is that even if the number of Mahayana stage cultivators were reduced by half, there would still be no single Mahayana stage capable of suppressing multiple individuals of the same level on their own.

The concentration of spiritual energy in heaven and earth is only decreasing; it hasn't yet depleted to the point where it can't even sustain a single Mahayana stage.

Thinking of this, Lu Bai's expression darkened, and a murderous intent began to rise within him.

His right hand gradually clenched into a fist.

"Since we can't guarantee that these Mahayana stage will remain obedient after I leave, we might as well just wipe out all the Mahayana stage cultivators in Xuanzhou."

"Uh, Elder Lu, I'm not criticizing you, it's just... isn't your thinking a bit too extreme?" Yuxu Zi said instinctively, looking alarmed.

Incidentally, when Lu Bai notified the Mahayana stage cultivators in the disciplinary Inspection Team, he also notified Yuxu Zi.

As the sect Sect Master of the Qingwang Sect, Yuxu Zi naturally resides within the Qingwang Sect gate.

He rushed over as soon as he received the news, and just then he overheard Lu Bai's last words, which immediately sent chills down his spine.

If he hadn't been able to hear the clattering laughter, he would have suspected that Lu Bai had gone mad.

Lu Bai quickly composed himself and casually joked, "Yu, do you want to become the Heavenly Venerable?"

Upon hearing this question, Yuxu Zi's heart skipped a beat, and he didn't have time to correct Lu Bai's way of addressing him.

He hurriedly inquired, "Elder Lu, is there anything you're dissatisfied with about me as the Sect Master? I can make changes on that front."

"No..."

Lu Bai sighed, "Never mind, let's wait for the others to arrive."

There are two sides to the story.

Those Mahayana stage cultivators who received Lu Bai's message naturally dared not neglect it.

Regardless of what they were doing, they all dropped what they were doing and rushed to the Qingwang Sect at full speed.

Besides Yuxu Zi, the one who arrived the fastest was none other than the ineffably loyal Third Supreme.

With his powerful physique, this Grand Elder of the Golden Scale Holy Land never slowed down his journey.

At the same distance, the only way to be faster than him would probably be to use a speed-traveling technique that consumes vital essence.

As the guy who was beaten the worst by Lu Bai but still survived, the Third Supreme was probably the Mahayana stage who cared the least about his image as a senior master in front of Lu Bai.

Upon arriving before Lu Bai, he solemnly bowed deeply. "Greetings, Heavenly Venerate Lu! Your most loyal follower pays homage to you!"

Yuxu Zi: "..."

Lu Bai was silent for a moment, then waved his hand. "Since you're here, find a place to wait."

"I will obey the Heavenly Venerate law!"

The Third Supreme suddenly stood up and shouted, "Loyalty! Integrity!"

Lu Bai: "..."

For some reason, Lu Bai inexplicably felt a toothache and suddenly regretted having them shout that slogan.
