Chapter Twenty-Nine: Secret

Repeating the same posture he had used before, Bai Ke wanted to thoroughly study the secrets of this stone statue.

He hadn't paid much attention to it before, but now that he had investigated in every way without any results, it really piqued Bai Ke's interest.

Previously, due to concerns about Sikong Xuan's presence, it was inconvenient to summon the Heavenly Eye, so it was hidden under the skin on the forehead.

Now, in order to thoroughly investigate the secrets here, Bai Ke has sent Sikong Xuan out. Sikong Xuan even thought that Bai Ke had some special fetish and gave Bai Ke a special reminder.

"Special my ass! What's going on in Sikong Xuan's head? What can I do to a mere stone statue young master?"

Bai Ke was unaware that when Sikong Xuan first took over as sect leader, before his master passed away, he would often come alone to this stone statue and mutter to himself.

It was indeed a tragic and heart-wrenching love story, so Sikong Xuan couldn't help but be nervous. This young master Tian Ce always seemed to have an eerie aura about him, and he dared not be careless at all.

If you stay alone in this cave, there are no hidden dangers, and you don't need to worry about exposing your third eye.

After ordering his men to guard the outside, Bai Ke activated his Heavenly Eye with all his might, and saw an eyeball-shaped object gradually protruding from between his eyebrows.

As Bai Ke's familiarity with and integration with the Heavenly Eye gradually deepened, the pain he experienced when summoning it gradually lessened.

For Bai Ke, the pain he felt now was negligible.

"Hmm... It seems I'll have to find a supernatural ability related to eyes when I get back, otherwise it'll be hard to explain my third eye. I can't always keep it hidden from others."

Thinking of this, Bai Ke remembered that he seemed to have seen similar descriptions in the system shop, but at that time his evil value was relatively low, so he did not look at them in detail.

Without hesitation, Bai Ke sat cross-legged on the ground, ignoring the dust on the ground, and sank his consciousness into his sea of ​​consciousness, directly touching the penguin mark.

Then came the familiar system space. It sounds complicated, but it was actually just a blink of an eye before Bai Ke appeared in the system space.

"Tch! This lousy system doesn't even bother to change the layout. Every system has a top-quality lifelike female character in its shop, doesn't it?"

"Ding! The system has detected the host's psychological needs. It is recommended that the host consume 1000 evil points to upgrade the system's intelligence level. After the upgrade is successful, a simulated host will appear."

The host designs the receptionist, and this system will not interfere in principle. At the same time, this system respects all the host's needs and will wholeheartedly serve the host!

"...I think you're just doing everything for money, aren't you? You really are the kind of money-grubbing type that comes from Tencent!"

"Damn it, system upgrades require evil points. Shouldn't that be the system's job? Why are you asking me for evil points?"

"Ding! This upgrade is a temporary adjustment made based on the host's needs, and is not a system program arrangement, so all costs will be borne by the host. Do you wish to upgrade?"

"I refuse! Don't upgrade!" Bai Ke irritably rejected the system's ridiculous request. He was just casually complaining, but the system actually took it seriously... So tiring!

Upon entering the system shop, Bai Ke searched repeatedly for supernatural abilities related to eyes, and found quite a few, but...

"To exchange for the Eye of the Candle Dragon, 100000000 Evil Points are required."

Perhaps Bai Ke's cultivation level had improved, because the system shop even provided some explanations this time, so Bai Ke quickly clicked to take a look.

"The Eye of the Candle Dragon is taken from the essence of the ancient Candle Dragon God's cultivation. Once mastered, one can control a space-time area and have control over everything within sight. With a single thought, the sky brightens; with a single thought, the sun sets."

"Hmm... very powerful, but how long do you expect me to accumulate 100 million evil points?"

He scrolled down further and saw that items like Thor's Eye and the True Eye of the Illusion required at least eight figures of evil points, which made Bai Ke hesitate.

"It seems I can only try to find a skill of eye techniques after I return to my sect, even a fragmented version would be fine!"

The system in the store is powerful; it either controls a region of space and time or creates a hell of eternal tribulations in one's eyes. But it's just too expensive.

"My training ground is still more cost-effective. It only costs 100 evil points to deduce cultivation techniques, which is like it's free."

Produced by Tencent, its shrewdness and sophistication are far beyond what a young man like Bai Ke could understand. Bai Ke is currently focused on using the training ground to deduce supernatural powers, but he hasn't considered how much it costs to deduce them.

Still unaware of how naive his ideas were, or rather, subconsciously ignoring the cost of deduce supernatural powers, Bai Ke happily exited the system space.

He immediately activated his Heavenly Eye to try and uncover the secret of the stone statue, but when he looked up, he saw densely engraved characters and patterns in the folds of the statue's clothes.

This was truly a case of "searching high and low without finding it, only to have it come to you effortlessly." Bai Ke immediately began to browse intently.

It turns out that the female leader of the Shennong Gang, whose name has not been passed down, engraved the secret she left to her descendants on the stone statue when she was carving it.

Because the matter was of great importance, and the slightest carelessness could cause huge trouble, she did not dare to leave it openly to the gang, but could only carve it on the stone statue, leaving it for someone destined to have it.

To understand the secret, we must first understand why this woman took over as gang leader and then abdicated.

It turns out that when this woman was living in seclusion in a remote mountain and studying medicine, she once saved a man, who was none other than Wang Jiantong, the former leader of the Beggars' Sect!

The two spent several months together, and their close companionship led to the development of romantic feelings between them. However, Wang Jiantong was, after all, a gang leader and could not stay with her for long, so they had no choice but to separate.

After Wang Jiantong left, the woman had no interest in studying medicine and returned to her sect. Shortly after she became the sect leader, she heard of Wang Jiantong's death and, having no desire to live on, decided to commit suicide out of love.

Before leaving, feeling guilty towards her sect, the woman inscribed a martial art practiced by Wang Jiantong on the stone statue, hoping that someone destined to learn it could revitalize the sect.

This martial art was the Dog-Beating Stick Technique. Wang Jiantong thought she was just an ordinary female doctor and didn't guard against her when he practiced. He never expected that she would secretly memorize it.

The Dog-Beating Stick Technique is a closely guarded secret of the Beggars' Sect, so she couldn't openly pass it on to the sect. She could only hope to help the Shennong Sect through this method.

In closing, the female leader also reminded future generations that when using the Dog-Beating Stick, they must remember to conceal it and not reveal it to others unnecessarily, lest it bring trouble to the sect.

It was originally a kind intention, but who would have thought that the former leader of the Shennong Gang was so infatuated that he had never checked the stone statue she left behind all these years.

Because Sikong Xuan wanted to avoid offending the venerable one, he ordered that no one should touch the stone statues here at will. That's how this secret was preserved for so many years until it was finally discovered by Bai Ke.
