Star Iron: Cat Renaissance Abundance

Chapter 2: Burning in the Fire of Karma, All Sins Are Exterminated

Bu Liren, who was standing under the platform, had to go through the pursuit and interception of Yaoqing Immortal Boat of the Immortal Boat Alliance before he could reach the periphery after losing nearly 4% of his people.

Even on the periphery, Bu Liren's generals looked ahead and saw spaceships everywhere coming to ask for medicine. At the end of all the spaceships was an extremely huge door. The door exuded a gentle and soft, yet majestic and solemn atmosphere. All the spaceships were tacitly about 70 astronomical units away from the door, waiting for it to open.

According to the old calendar, three days before the gate opens, it flashes three times. These flashes are visible to all. After the flashes, all spacecraft must enter cruise mode, and everyone on board, regardless of rank or origin, must perform the ritual of three kneelings and nine kowtows. After this ritual, this must be repeated every four hours until the gate flashes three times. After three times, the gate opens, and those chosen enter directly, regardless of the distance. After entering, the gate disappears, awaiting its next opening.

Bu Liren stared at the bronze mirror under the high platform. The light from the bronze mirror shone on Bu Liren, but then, the golden light that originally represented holiness turned into red light, and lines of karma fire ignited on Bu Liren's body. This flame burned people's bones and would not be extinguished unless the karma was burned out.

Bai Ling looked calmly at the Bu Liren who were wailing below. Bai Ling's eyes swept over one Bu Liren after another. When he was about to finish scanning all the Bu Liren, Bai Ling found that there was one person who was not burned by the karma fire, and even his clothes were not affected.

The person saw the Lord God's Messenger in white robes and a white hood looking at her, and she was so scared that she quickly lowered her head and dared not look at Bai Ling again.

"Raise your head and let me see you." Bai Ling's voice sounded in the man's mind.

The man was somewhat addicted to Bai Ling's sweet voice. Just by listening to it, he felt that half of his illness was cured.

The person slowly raised her head and saw the Lord God nodded at her. Then she looked around and found that the more than 30 Buli people who had been traveling with her had all turned to ashes.

"You...are pretty good. What's your name?" Bai Ling said to the girl indifferently.

The man first performed the solemn ceremony of kneeling three times and kowtowed nine times before replying, "Your Excellency, my name is Saran... I am a member of the fox tribe."

"Why are you here? And why are you with Bu Liren? If I remember correctly, I should have asked Bu Liren to come in first!" Bai Ling's voice became a little angry at the end, as if she was judging this fox girl who disobeyed the rules.

Yes, even if you're lucky enough to enter the gate, the order of entry is determined solely by Bai Ling. 500 people, not literally, but each person represents a tribe or civilization. This means that every Amber Age, a thousand tribes or civilizations can enter, and every 50 Amber Ages, each tribe or civilization only has one chance.

"Lord God's Messenger, I am a prisoner of the Buli people. They are the ones who tied me here." Young Feixiao said hurriedly, fearing that this would anger Bai Ling.

"Well, it seems that you are not lying. The fact that this bronze mirror has no reaction to you is the best proof. Now, tell me your wish." Bai Ling still had that indifferent tone.

Feixiao fell into deep thought. She first thought of her long-dead parents, siblings, and her own people... one by one, Saran recalled all of them in her mind. After an unknown amount of time, Feixiao looked at Bai Ling with a firm gaze and once again performed the ritual of three kneelings and nine kowtows to Bai Ling.

"Lord God's Messenger, I want to go back, back to my people! They need me, and I need them too!"

Bai Ling was a little surprised to hear the words of the girl in front of him, but it was not surprising. Over the years, many people have made this wish.

"Okay, do you mean to resurrect your people?"

Saran shook his head and said firmly, "No, they are already dead. What I want to return to is the Immortal Boat Alliance. My people are there too."

"In that case, I'll grant you your request." Bai Ling waved his hand after saying that. Saran came to his senses and found himself on Bu Liren's spaceship, and had appeared on Yao Qing's route. The fairy boat in front of him was getting bigger and bigger and was heading towards him.

"You are an interesting girl. Let me see how far you can go." Bai Ling murmured, and then continued the medicine-seeking ceremony that had been performed hundreds of times.

Of the remaining 200 or so civilizations, only less than 20 survived the test. The others were either completely burned by the flames of karma or destroyed by the jealousy of others. Their experiences remained the same, without any change. Their only desire was wealth and longevity. It was nothing more than that.

Soon, when the last civilization left, the gate appeared again and flashed a few times. Everyone understood that they had missed this opportunity and could only wait until next time.

Bai Ling returned to the pharmacist's side and put away the ritual robes used in the ceremony. The pharmacist asked, "How many people passed by this time?"

After folding the clothes, Bai Ling said calmly, "There are only 17, which is a lot less than last time. However, this time I found a fox girl who was quite interesting. It's one of the few pleasures I've had in all these years."

"Oh? Tell me."

"That girl was a prisoner of the Bu Li people. She was brought in by the Bu Li people. After I released the bronze mirror, when all the Bu Li people were burned in the flames, she was the only one who remained safe and sound."

"I called it up, and it said its name was Saran. I asked it what it wanted, and its answer was very interesting. It didn't ask for longevity, money, or to resurrect the dead, but only for a way back to its people."

The pharmacist stroked Bai Ling's hair and rubbed her ears as usual, listening to her tell the interesting stories of this medicine-seeking ceremony.

The pharmacist seemed to recall something and asked, "I remember you were given the responsibility of guardianship. Why didn't you fulfill it?"

"Oh, you mean the honorary guest official? Actually, this position is just a title, with a small amount of money every month. You don't have to do anything else, and it's not my turn to do it."

The pharmacist couldn't understand why she could get something for free without giving anything in return. It didn't align with her values. For the pharmacist, even if she was selfless and altruistic, the price she paid was that she wouldn't care about you, and you still had to go through what you were supposed to go through. This wasn't just about balance; there was a deeper reason she hadn't considered.

"I don't quite understand."

"Oh my god, it's okay. This position also makes it convenient for me to do some things. It can also be used as my substitute. Otherwise, if I leave this door, the whole universe will be in chaos."

Bai Ling looked at the pharmacist's confused expression and smiled. Even so, the pharmacist would not refuse or stop Bai Ling's actions.

(I plan to write about the pharmacist in this way. I feel that it is good for the pharmacist to have some humanity but not too much. Just treat it as a personal setting for this article.)
