A Great Many Failure Insights

The Ruins came up with a good idea: to contact Xu Bai beforehand and tell Xu Bai what was happening here. Ideally, they could notify Xu Bai through someone else and ask him not to leave the Ghost Market for the time being.

But then a problem arises. Xu Bai is currently in the Ghost Market, and the rules and Ruins of the Ghost Market are very clear. Even if he manages to contact them using the method he just thought of, he won't be able to reach Xu Bai. After all, even a Exiting Sainthood -level expert would be altered by the rules of the Ghost Market once he enters.

The Ruins floated restlessly in mid-air. He tried many methods, but if he couldn't contact Xu Bai, it would all be in vain.

Finally, he stopped and, after careful consideration, decided to make contact, at least to leak the information and see if there was a solution on the other side.

After figuring it out, he didn't waste any time and started making contacts immediately.

Barbarian Territory.

Since that incident, Yun Zihai has not continued to serve as an official. Instead, he has stayed in the Royal Palace Treasury to cultivate abilities related to the soul. As for his own abilities as a scholar, he has put them aside for the time being.

Since he has already reached the extraordinary level, he doesn't have too many extravagant desires. It's better to play it safe now, because if something really happens, he would truly be a heinous criminal.

"Brother Qingfeng, it seems that the last position of sainthood is very likely to belong to you."

In their spare time, Yun Zihai and Liu Qingfeng chatted idly. At this time, Liu Qingfeng was oblivious to everything else and only wanted to enter the Saint.

His strength is growing at an extremely rapid pace.

Since the Female Daoist Abbot attained sainthood, there is only one position left in the world, so Liu Qingfeng has been working overtime to cultivate.

No one in any profession in the world doesn't aspire to sainthood. Even the most desireless person will go crazy when the topic of sainthood comes up.

When Liu Qingfeng created his abilities, including the restoration of his soul, he pursued a limit in order to become a saint. Although the positions of saints were full at the time, he always held onto hope. Now that hope has come, he certainly won't relax.

"There are countless people in the world who possess both virtue and talent. I am just one of the masses. This time, it all depends on luck." Liu Qingfeng was still aware of his own limitations, shook his head, and maintained a calm attitude.

In such a vast world, with so many geniuses, how could he possibly guarantee that he would definitely achieve sainthood?

Keep a calm mind and do your best. Even if you lose, you will have no regrets.

"Brother Qingfeng, don't underestimate yourself. You still have a chance," Yun Zihai said with a smile.

His tone was filled with emotion.

They all started from the same point, and he was even ahead. But later, Xu Bai made great strides and has now reached a height that they can't see.

Reflecting on his experiences over the years, he was filled with emotion, recalling the extraordinary journey Xu Bai had taken to rise to prominence.

Sometimes, it's not just about reaching that level yourself, but even just witnessing your friend reach that level can be very satisfying.

As a witness, how many people in this world can witness such a miraculous event? Yun Zihai sighed and shook his head slightly. He had rested enough and planned to continue studying the power of the soul. At this moment, he had to at least ensure that nothing happened to him.

But at that moment, he felt a tremor deep within his soul.

Yun Zihai was slightly taken aback. Now that he was familiar with the divine soul, he could sense that it was a door, a door from this world.

Xu Bai had contacted them before and said that the things inside this door could be temporarily categorized as belonging to their side.

"At this moment, a feeling suddenly came through. Could something have happened?" Yun Zihai immediately became alert.

He could sense a sense of urgency and anxiety emanating from the voice, as if it wanted to say something to him.

Yun Zihai thought for a moment, then took a deep breath and used his cultivated spiritual power to delve into his soul, preparing to make contact with that door.

He believed in Xu Bai; at least among all those who were on good terms with Xu Bai, everyone believed in Xu Bai.

Despite the terrifying rumors surrounding Xu Bai Xu Bai in the martial arts world, anyone who has interacted with him and developed a deep friendship with him knows that Xu Bai is an extremely reliable person.

So now that Xu Bai is not here, and the other party is conveying an anxious emotion, Yun Zihai decides to try it himself to see if he can sense anything.

However, before that, he still spoke with Liu Qingfeng, asking Liu Qingfeng to protect him, while he would only send out a wisp of his divine soul.

Liu Qingfeng was focused on his cultivation, but after hearing what Yun Zihai said, he looked serious, nodded, and agreed.

Yun Zihai had already separated a wisp of his divine soul and made contact with the door that transmitted emotions.

The next moment, a message came from inside the door, clearly transformed into text, and appeared in his mind.

"Never let Xu Bai out of the Ghost Market. Do everything you can to contact him. If he comes out, he will face unimaginable danger. It is the Supreme Saint's conspiracy."

"The Ghost Market possesses the power of countless shattered worlds. It is a region that Supreme Saint cannot penetrate. We cannot allow him to emerge in the short term."

"Remember, we must use every possible means to get in touch with him, otherwise we will lose!"

The information was simple, but each word carried a heavy weight, and when these words were put together, Yun Zihai understood its meaning.

His brows furrowed tightly, and without much further communication, he hastily withdrew.

He had just stepped out when he turned to look at Liu Qingfeng beside him.

"Brother Qingfeng, I have to go to the Great Chu Kingdom's palace. I'll leave this to you."

Yun Zihai didn't explain why, nor did he have time to explain. He received the news and felt he should inform the Chu Emperor immediately.

Liu Qingfeng wasn't one to dawdle; knowing there was something important to do, he nodded in agreement.

Yun Zihai disregarded all talk of spirit and soul, leaping out of the window and streaking across the sky, his entire body radiating Righteous Qi as he sped towards the Great Chu Kingdom.

The Great Chu Kingdom, Imperial Palace.

It was already late at night, but the Chu Emperor was still sitting in his chair, resting his chin on his hand, deep in thought with a furrowed brow.

He has returned and taken on the corresponding responsibilities again. When he left today, he could see the cunning expression on Chief Mu's face, as if all the burdens had been thrown to him and he relaxed in an instant.

"That old guy is still the same as before. After I came back, he pushed all the trouble onto me again. It's a headache!"

The Chu Emperor rubbed his temples, feeling a considerable headache.

He thought a lot today, but still couldn't come up with any solution. The Ghost Market was no longer a concern for him, but the incomparably powerful Supreme Saint was like a fishbone stuck in his throat, difficult to remove.

"The first thing we need to do is figure out how to meet with Xu Bai and see if other methods are useful."

The Chu Emperor picked up the tea beside him, poured himself a cup, and took a small sip.

Steam rose from the tea, filling the Imperial Study with its aroma.

Just as he was thinking carefully, a commotion suddenly broke out outside.

"Lord Yun, please don't be in a hurry. Let me inform them first."

These are spies outside the door, seemingly trying to obstruct things.

Soon, Yun Zihai's voice came through.

"What else do you have to announce? I have important business to attend to, and I can't afford to waste a single moment. Get out of the way! If anything happens and His Majesty wants to chop off my head, I'll let him do it!"

Yun Zihai grew increasingly anxious, losing his usual composure.

"Do not make things difficult for me. If you force your way in, I will have no choice but to commit treason!" Anzi's tone became sharp and aggressive.

This is their responsibility, and they cannot afford to take it.

In this world, only a very few people can reach the Imperial Study without prior notice.

For example, those who attain sainthood, such as Xu Bai.

"Yun Zihai?"

The Chu Emperor, now aware of the visitor's identity, stood up, went to the window, looked out at Yun Zihai was about to force his way in, and said slowly, "Let him in. There's no need to stop him."

With the emperor speaking, the spies who had been blocking the way outside breathed a sigh of relief, stopped obstructing, and disappeared into the shadows.

Yun Zihai then hurriedly walked in. After pushing open the door, he disregarded all etiquette and quickly said, "Your Majesty, you must not let Xu Bai leave the Ghost Market. He will be in danger if he does."

The Chu Emperor frowned and pointed to the seat beside him, saying, "Explain in detail. How can I make a decision when you're being so vague and incoherent?"

Yun Zihai knew that since he had already met His Majesty the Emperor, there was no need to rush. So he composed himself and recounted the events in detail.

The whole process was short. Yun Zihai tried to be brief and express the content concisely. After listening to everything, the Chu Emperor fell into deep thought.

After a moment, he finally raised his head.

"It's difficult."

It is indeed very difficult.

The rules of the Ghost Market are there. Perhaps when they launch a full-scale attack, the rules can be weakened, but it will take time. If Xu Bai has had his fill of fun inside and comes out before then, there will definitely be danger.

Yun Zihai said with a wry smile, "Your Majesty, could we ask everyone to brainstorm? If we really can't get in touch with Xu Bai, I'm worried he might be in danger."

The Chu Emperor did not answer, but he was already thinking about it carefully.

Yun Zihai knew that the Chu Emperor was thinking, so he didn't disturb him and waited quietly by his side.

After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the Chu Emperor continued to tap the table, the frequency of which gradually decreased until finally there was no sound.

"There is a solution," the Chu Emperor said slowly. "In my prison, there are still many death row inmates who should have been executed long ago, but considering that they might become monsters after death, I have imprisoned them indefinitely."

"These death row inmates have all committed heinous crimes, and their hands are covered in blood. It's good for them to go."

A death row inmate?

Yun Zihai was only stunned for a moment before he quickly realized what the Chu Emperor meant.

Entering the Ghost Market can indeed easily destroy one's soul, but if you send some death row inmates there, it's a different story.

These death row inmates were already heinous criminals, each of them having committed countless murders. If it weren't for the fear that these inmates would turn into monsters, they would have been executed long ago.

Sending these death row inmates to the Ghost Market, even if their souls are obliterated, is not inappropriate at all.

There are very few ways to notify Xu Bai, but this is definitely the most appropriate one. All you need to do is place something on the death row inmate that can be used to communicate, such as an envelope. As long as Xu Bai can see it, there will be no problem at all.

But there is still one thing.

"Casting such a wide net doesn't guarantee success," Yun Zihai said with a wry smile.

Even with a large number of people, Ghost Market so vast, who can guarantee that they will definitely run into Xu Bai? "Let's take the first step. I will have other plans later," said the Chu Emperor. "At that time, we will arrange for people to guard the circular pattern. If Xu Bai sees the information, we will tell Xu Bai through the information and have him send the death row inmate back. This way, we will know that Xu Bai Xu Bai."

"If all else fails, I will personally enter the Ghost Market again."

Yun Zihai exclaimed in shock, "Your Majesty, this is far too risky! Let me go!"

The Chu Emperor shook his head and said, "I am Exiting Sainthood. After entering the Ghost Market, there will definitely be strange phenomena that Xu Bai can sense. Moreover, since Xu Bai was able to restore me in that state, there will be a second time. I will write it down in the letter then."

Yun Zihai opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but the Chu Emperor had already made his decision and waved his hand to stop Yun Zihai speaking.

"Start making the arrangements now. You're coming with me!"

The Chu Emperor, with his hands behind his back, strode out the door...

The Great Chu Kingdom was making preparations and notifying Xu Bai Xu Bai, who was sitting cross-legged high in the sky, staring intently at the ground.

After his cheat system was upgraded, his speed increased dramatically. Now, he has almost finished grinding all the traces on the ground.

There are too many progress bars; even with his current spiritual power and strength, he still finds it extremely tedious.

Fortunately, he had experienced these tedious things before and was already used to them. As long as he watched the progress bar increase, he would feel a sense of satisfaction amidst the boredom.

"This is the last one."

Xu Bai excitedly watched the progress bar grow, patiently waiting.

A moment later, after the last bit of progress bar had finished increasing and the pale blue text in front of him had disappeared, Xu Bai let out a long breath.

The pale blue smoke gathered once more, forming the latest attribute panel.

[Name: Xu Bai]

[Realm Level: Fifth Rank Loose Cultivator]

[Myriad Aspects Heavenly Attraction Mountain Sea Art (Sainthood Level 5): Max Level]

Fifth rank!

Now, he has reached the fifth level of Sainthood and possesses a multitude of complex skills.

The fifth rank is a significant promotion, but for Xu Bai, there is something even more important.

His gaze fell on the corner, where a bunch of progress bars were just a hair's breadth away from being perfect.
