After Zhou Bai followed the Immortal Ming Yue to Wanxian Island, he was settled in Ming Yue's manor, waiting for the Supreme Heavenly Venerate's summons.

All the servants and guards in the manor were dismissed by Ming Yue, leaving only her and Zhou Bai.

In Ming Yue's eyes, Zhou Bai himself was the hope for the rejuvenation of the Human Race. He eagerly sought Ming Yue's favor, and their relationship gradually grew closer over the past few days. Ming Yue personally took care of Zhou Bai, sparing no effort in offering various celestial treasures she had collected over the years to help Zhou Bai enhance his cultivation.

Thus, Zhou Bai did not waste these days, consuming pills, herbal soups, and immortal herbs under Ming Yue's meticulous care. He converted all of these into Lazy Aura, earning approximately over five million Lazy Aura points.

After all, Zhou Bai had brought only a Distorted Shadow with him when he came with Ming Yue. Although it had Zhou Bai's cultivation, it couldn't cultivate independently.

In terms of cultivation, only Zhou Bai's true body could cultivate and improve, allowing the Distorted Shadow to grow along with him.

So all these pills were sold for Lazy Aura, used as the foundation for his true body.

The only troubling matter was that Ming Yue watched him closely every day, giving him no opportunity to sell the Eight Realms Magical Robe or Eight Realms Flying Sword given by her for Lazy Aura points.

This day, in Ming Yue's courtyard, Zhou Bai was lazily lying on the lawn, thinking to himself, "The Supreme Heavenly Venerate is really too imposing, saying he wants to summon me, yet I've waited for so many days. Ming Yue, without seeing the Venerate, also doesn't want me to go out, only keeps me in this manor, not meeting anyone, it's really boring."

Just then, a graceful figure flew over on the white clouds—it was Ming Yue.

Seeing Ming Yue, she looked both nervous and solemn as she said, "The Venerate wants to see you, follow me."

Saying that, she used her Primordial Spirit power to gather Zhou Bai, following with hand-seal techniques, a layer of mist enveloped them, then they soared up.

Ming Yue: "We'll hide our forms while going, let's not be seen by others."

Zhou Bai thought to himself: 'Is Ming Yue too cautious? I've already changed my appearance, and this is the Immortals' headquarters, Wanxian Island, is it really necessary to hide our forms? Could it be to guard against other Immortals?'

However, Ming Yue thought to herself: 'Right now, nobody knows that I've brought Zhou Bai back. If this meeting happens with the Venerate, then it will establish things formally. In the future, I will be one of the leaders in obtaining the Venerate's and Wanxian Island's resources and pushing forward the plan for Human Race's rejuvenation.'

Throughout the journey, Ming Yue reminded Zhou Bai about the points to note when meeting the Supreme Heavenly Venerate, finally stating: "The Venerate's attitude will decide Wanxian Island's stance. Although you possess the pureblood human race lineage, there are myriad ways to cultivate, which one to use depends on the Venerate's evaluation of you, ensure you present yourself well."

Seeing Ming Yue's nervous demeanor, Zhou Bai nodded, "Rest assured, sister, I'll present myself well."

In his heart, he contemplated: 'Should I try to harvest fortune from the Supreme Heavenly Venerate? Wouldn't it be great if I could turn the Venerate into my Angel Envoy...'

As they spoke, they arrived at Wanxian Island's central position, before a cliff towering over a thousand meters high, where Ming Yue led Zhou Bai to meet a boy who seemed only five or six years old, chubby and white.

Ming Yue asked the boy, "Is the master here?"

The boy smiled and nodded, "The master has been waiting for you two, please enter." With that, he stepped aside, revealing the mountain path behind him.

Ming Yue led Zhou Bai up the path, Zhou Bai walked for some time, glancing at the long stairs and the seemingly endless summit, couldn't help but say, "This is too long, can't we fly up?"

Ming Yue shook her head and said, "Flying will never reach the summit, walking is the only way. It won't take long, if the Venerate wishes to see us, within a few steps we'll be at the top; if he doesn't, then even walking for ten years won't lead to him."

Zhou Bai thought: 'The majesty is indeed considerable.'

Suddenly, Zhou Bai's hand softened, feeling Ming Yue somewhat nervously gripping his palm, having none of the usual bold and dominating demeanor.

He thought curiously: 'Why does Ming Yue look even more nervous than me?'

The two, holding hands, walked step by step along the mountain path, and as they stepped forward once more, their view abruptly brightened, arriving at a platform, looking up to see bright sunshine and endless seas of clouds around.

Zhou Bai was surprised: 'Reached the top? How was this done? Is it some kind of spatial technique?'

Beside him, Ming Yue solemnly called out loudly, "Venerate, I have brought Zhou Bai to see you."

Zhou Bai's eyes scanned the platform, seeing a beam of light flash across the sky, gradually converging into a light screen, like lasers enveloping the summit, a voice sounded in the ears of the two, "Ming Yue, you have done well."

Then a beam of light enveloped Zhou Bai, "Child, I have been watching you for a long time."

Zhou Bai widened his eyes at the sky-wide light screen, his face full of reverence, but thought to himself: 'Not even revealing his face, now I can't even harvest fortune.'

Meanwhile, Zhou Bai's heart tensed up suddenly, because he truly had too many secrets, fearing the Supreme Heavenly Venerate might discover them: 'With the Venerate's cultivation, I don't know if he can see through the nature of this Distorted Shadow, and see through the nature of my intelligent identity?'

Zhou Bai felt the light sweeping across his entire body, suddenly having the illusion that he was fully perceived.

Just as Zhou Bai grew increasingly tense, the Venerate continued, "Very good, Zhou Bai, you indeed possess the bloodline of pureblood human race, and unprecedented talent, qualified to rejuvenate the human race."

Zhou Bai was surprised: "The Venerate can't see through my nature?"

Just as Zhou Bai heaved a sigh of relief, his brows suddenly raised.

Because at this moment, on his Nine Disasters of Heaven and Man auxiliary cultivation system panel, a notification abruptly appeared.

Zhou Bai Wisdom -15

'Damn it...' Seeing this, Zhou Bai was both shocked and angry, he never thought he would have a day when his wisdom was reduced.

However, although his wisdom was reduced by 15 points, Zhou Bai's original wisdom, through multiple cultivations, star upgrades, and Dao enhancement, was already extremely high, at this moment his thoughts operated like lightning, immediately conjecturing several possibilities.

"Is it done by the Supreme Heavenly Venerate? Does he also possess the Nine Disasters of Heaven and Man auxiliary cultivation system? No, maybe he simply knows the disasters of heaven and man? Or could he only know the Fool on the figure's Stupidity star point?"
