Losing Composure, A Predicament

Fawu smiled, showing none of his usual aloofness towards others A Mortal, and asked:

Fellow Daoists, what is Fairness System?

Xia Quan, who had just said "believing in oneself to become a Buddha is better than believing in Buddha," reacted the fastest.

He immediately redeemed a System Seed from the System Store and respectfully handed it to Fawu with both hands:

"Senior, the Fairness System is a supreme celestial treasure with boundless power. I cannot fully explain its mysteries in a short time. Only by personally binding with it can one truly understand it."

This is System Seed; once the senior grants permission, it can be bound to the system.

Those who witnessed this were filled with regret, blaming themselves for being a fraction of a second too slow and letting Xia Quan snatch away the 100 Energy Points reward.

Fawu narrowed his eyes and stared intently at the System Seed. No matter how much he sensed it, he couldn't discern its true nature or detect any danger.

However, he did not immediately accept the System Seed, fearing that he would be affected like these people.

After a moment's hesitation, he finally accepted the System Seed and examined it carefully several times, but still found nothing and sensed no danger.

He immediately made up his mind to bind himself to the system, as only in this way could he find out the truth about this Fairness System.

As soon as I agreed to the binding, a system interface appeared out of thin air in my mind, and the system navigation immediately began to explain each function one by one.

Looking at the system navigation's introduction, Fawu's expression was completely replaced by shock, his eyes filled with disbelief, and he exclaimed in astonishment:

How could such a wondrous treasure exist in this world?

Virtual World, Dao Comprehension Space, Reincarnation Illusion Realm, Portable Daoist Sanctum, System Store...

There are even Artificial Heavenly Spirit Root, Dao Seed Martial Dao System, and even Immortal King- level Cultivation Method...

How is that possible?

Am I seeing things, or am I under an illusion?

Seeing Fawu's loss of composure, everyone present exchanged bewildered glances, feeling not only surprise but also a sense of unease.

They were worried that once he realized his lapse in composure, he would kill them to silence them.

They dared not leave rashly, fearing they would be accused of disrespect, and were caught in a dilemma.

Fawu was utterly horrified. What he was seeing was too unbelievable, but once he was personally bound to the system, he had no choice but to accept it.

As his understanding of the Fairness System became clearer, his initial shock subsided, replaced by an overwhelming sense of elation.

He finally understood why those A Mortal were so certain they could become immortals or Buddhas.

This Fairness System is so mysterious that even he feels confident of becoming an immortal.

That's right, it's about becoming an immortal!

With the help of Fairness System, he truly had the assurance of becoming an immortal.

Unlike before, when even after cultivating to the Void Return Realm, there was still no certainty whatsoever about becoming an immortal.

But the next moment, his face suddenly turned bitter.

Now that A Mortal are bound to the Fairness System and have seen the vast world outside, they are no longer as ignorant as before.

Where would people easily believe in Buddhism and obediently contribute their Power of Faith?

After all, with Fairness System in place, Cultivation Method and resources can be exchanged from the System Store, giving one the hope of becoming an immortal or a Buddha. Why then would one need to kneel and worship Buddhas?

Thinking of this, Fawu felt his head was about to explode, and he didn't know what to do.

After a moment, he sighed helplessly and tried to multitask:

While quickly familiarizing himself with the Fairness System, he bowed to Xia Quan and said:

"Many thanks to Fellow Daoist Xia for the System Seed. This humble monk will now take his leave."

As soon as he finished speaking, he flashed and transformed into a streak of light, rushing out of the restaurant and flying swiftly towards the Prajna Temple.

He needed to inform his Fachen about the changes in the outside world and the Fairness System as soon as possible.

Half an hour later, as soon as Fawu returned to Prajna Temple, he went straight to Fachen and said urgently:

"Senior brother, I have found out why no one has come to worship Buddha recently!"

Upon hearing this, Fachen's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked, "What is the reason? Could it be that the people were slaughtered by a demon, causing the incense offerings to cease?"

Fawu slowly shook his head, his expression growing increasingly solemn. "That's not the case. The people are all safe and sound."

However, this matter involves a wide range of issues, is extremely complex, and has far too great implications.

Senior brother, please convene a meeting of all the high-ranking officials of Prajna Temple immediately. I will explain the reasons to everyone at that time.

Seeing Fawu's solemn expression, Fachen understood that the other party must have made a groundbreaking discovery to be so serious.

Without asking any further questions, he nodded and said, "Very well, I will go and summon all the high-ranking officials to the Prajna Hall for a meeting."

A moment later, inside the Prajna Hall, high-ranking officials of Prajna Temple, including Fachen, Fawu, and Fakong, gathered together, and the atmosphere in the hall was solemn and dignified.

Fachen's gaze swept over everyone, and he slowly spoke, "Today I discovered that the Power of Faith collected in the incense bottle is less than half full."

Upon investigation, it was discovered that no ordinary people were coming to the Prajna Temple to worship Buddha anymore.

This matter concerns the very foundation of the temple, so I sent my Fawu to investigate.

He paused slightly, turned to look at Fawu, and said in a deep voice, "Junior brother, now that all the high-ranking officials of the temple are here, please tell me the results of your investigation in detail."

Upon hearing this, everyone in the hall looked astonished.

The Power of Faith is one of the important resources of Prajna Temple.

The number of cases has decreased so drastically in such a short time; the change came too suddenly. What happened?

Immediately, everyone turned their gaze to Fawu, their eyes filled with urgency and solemnity.

Fawu met everyone's gaze with a solemn expression and did not hide anything. He immediately recounted everything he had seen and heard along the way in detail.

Upon hearing this Fachen, Fakong, and other high-ranking members of Prajna Temple could no longer maintain their composure as high monks. They were all dumbfounded, their faces filled with disbelief, and exclamations of surprise rose and fell.

"Is this true? Does such a magical treasure as Fairness System really exist in this world?"

"Junior Brother Fawu, have you perhaps fallen under someone's illusion? Otherwise, how could you utter such bizarre words?"

"Yes, perhaps the demon has already slaughtered the people and set up an illusion to deceive you."

"Fawu, is that Fairness System really that mysterious? Can it truly help us become immortals?"

"The Fairness System contains Immortal King -level Cultivation Method and Artificial Heavenly Spirit Root... Are you sure this isn't a hallucination caused by a cultivation mishap?"

Fawu was not at all surprised by the crowd's reaction.

If he hadn't already bound himself to the Fairness System, he would never have believed that such a heaven-defying treasure existed in the world.

"Fellow disciples, please be patient. You will find out what this Fairness System is once you are bound together."

As soon as he finished speaking, he redeemed System Seed from the System Store, wrapped them in spiritual light, and presented them to everyone one by one.

Everyone looked at the System Seed in front of them, and they all reached out to take it and held it in their palms.

He immediately used his Divine Sense to investigate, trying various detection methods in turn, but he still couldn't discern the origin of the object, and could only confirm that it posed no danger.

The group exchanged glances and ultimately chose to trust Fawu, agreeing to bind themselves to the Fairness System.

Once bound, the system's mysteries were fully revealed, eliciting gasps of surprise from the crowd.

This Fairness System is truly amazing!

"Such a heaven-defying treasure truly exists in this world! With the system here, we really have a chance to become immortals..."

Fawu smiled faintly at the discomfiture of the crowd, showing no surprise whatsoever.

After all, the Fairness System was so amazing that it had already shattered everyone's understanding, and even he himself lost his composure in public.

He then ignored the crowd and continued to familiarize himself with the Fairness System.
