【Effect: See through the secrets of heaven - At certain times, this jade pendant will see through the secrets of heaven and give the holder certain hints about the future.】
Purple Aura – Contains purple aura from the Heavenly Emperor, enhancing the holder's imperial majesty.
"What portable Eriol?"
After reading the system's introduction, Bai Zhi understood the effect of this thing; it was simply a prophecy tool.
This thing is indeed powerful. The purple aura effect is just an enhancement of one's aura and has little impact on combat power. However, the ability to perceive the secrets of heaven is a very powerful effect, no matter where you are.
The problem is, this thing doesn't seem to be something that can be actively triggered.
Moreover, does this only apply within the Journey to the West universe?
However, as soon as Bai Zhi uttered those words, she saw the jade pendant emit a purple light that enveloped her. Then, a strange scene flashed through her mind, as if it were a 480p video.
"That's... Pinocchio?"
Bai Zhi covered her head, barely managing to recognize the location in the ancient-quality image.
And in that scene just now, she not only saw images of Pinocchio, she also saw... so many foxes!!
In that blurry image, she saw Tamamo-no-Mae, but for some reason, it seemed that Tamamo-no-Mae in that image only had one tail.
That's not the main point. She also saw Tamamo Cat, Tamamo JK dressed in a JK uniform, and Tamamo dressed as an OL secretary.
And... a cluster of clouds??
Bai Zhi shook her head. What kind of strange future hint was this? She knew that Tamamo-no-Mae's tail could split into other Tamamo-no-Mae spirits. For example, Tamamo-no-Cat was the beastly side of Tamamo-no-Mae.
But why did it split in Pinocene? Even more strangely, why did Tingyun appear in Pinocene, and in such large numbers?
Is it that Tingyun didn't die... or...?
Bai Zhi narrowed her eyes. She thought that perhaps Ting Yun at Pinocchio was actually Huan Long in disguise.
If that guy hadn't been so overly cautious, not showing himself even after leading so many people of Fengrao to attack, Bai Zhi would definitely have taught him a lesson and turned him into a mere tool for handling government affairs.
Of course, if it's true that Tingyun survived by sheer luck, that would be great too; Yukong would probably be very happy.
"That's all?"
Bai Zhi shook the jade pendant, somewhat speechless. This was truly a secret of heaven, so vague and misleading.
However, considering what Kafka had told her before, about Pinocchio and the Nine-Tailed Fox, and how they corroborated each other, the effectiveness of this thing should be beyond doubt.
Unfortunately, this thing can't be taken to the Star Iron World.
Bai Zhi felt a little regretful, but could only clip the thing to her waist for the time being.
The moment she put it on, Bai Zhi saw the purple aura swirling around the jade pendant seem to have attached itself to her.
But I didn't feel anything special.
There was no imperial grandeur, nor any system notifications, as if the previously mentioned effects did not exist.
"Tamamo, do I look any different than before?"
"Master..."
Tamamo-no-Mae looked at Bai Zhi with some surprise. After Bai Zhi pinned the jade pendant to her body, it gave her a completely different feeling than before.
"What's wrong? Do I look more impressive now?"
Looking at Tamamo-no-Mae's expression, Bai Zhi was somewhat puzzled.
"It's nothing, it's just that Master seems to have become a little cuter than before."
Tamamo-no-Mae chuckled softly and said.
"cute??"
Bai Zhi was somewhat puzzled. Wasn't the effect of this jade pendant to enhance the emperor's majesty? How come she seemed even more adorable in Tamamo-no-Mae's eyes?
Is something not quite right here?
"Migu... It's hard for me to describe. Although Master was cute before, he now has a strange sense of majesty, which makes him even cuter."
Tamamo-no-Mae didn't know how to express her feelings in detail. If she had to describe it, Bai Zhi would give people a sense of the majesty of a powerful dragon king, but because of Bai Zhi's size, this dragon king would have a chibi-style feel.
Like a certain young lady from the Scarlet Devil Mansion who crouches down with her head in her hands, she has an air of authority, but combined with her size and appearance, she makes you want to hug her and rub her hard a few times.
Bai Zhi was a little confused, but thinking that it probably wouldn't make any difference, she didn't take the jade pendant off.
"Master, would you like me to give you another massage?"
Tamamo-no-Mae looked at Bai Zhi with a hint of eagerness in her eyes. Such an adorable creature, she could hold it in her arms all day without any problem, right?
"Tamamo, your eyes... I'm a little scared..."
Chapter 952 Wine, women, wealth, and anger have harmed me too much; from today onward, I will abstain…
“My disciple, although you possess the immortal metal element, you must also pay attention to the balance of yin and yang within yourself, and do not become addicted to minor paths.”
Inside the Tushita Palace, Laozi glanced at Bai Zhi's heavy demonic aura and said something as if giving a hint.
"cough……"
Bai Zhi coughed lightly, her somewhat listless eyes darting around.
It's all Tamamo-no-Mae's fault for being too proactive. Besides, she was once Daji, and in terms of allure, she far surpasses other characters.
It was truly a masterpiece carefully selected by our ancestors.
Moreover, how could she possibly withstand a test of her beauty?
And for some reason, the more she outputs, the more excited Tamamo-no-Mae becomes, without ever getting tired, which is completely different from others.
Even flying clouds cannot compare to it.
I'm so tired now that I'm lacking in energy, and my eyes are even turning blue.
Could it be that even a dignified holy ruler like myself would encounter such a thing?
On the contrary, Tamamo-no-Mae looked radiant after playing, and even wanted to play with Hakuji again.
Startled, Bai Zhi quickly made an excuse to go to the Tushita Palace to cultivate and ran away.
"You little rascal, fine. I've heard about your maid. Although she's registered, she still has some demonic nature, and her lust for pleasure is just her nature."
Laozi did not blame her too much, because with his insight, he could naturally see that Bai Zhi had a strong fiery temper, which even the Fire God of Heaven could not compare to.
Playing with that fox demon for a while may have depleted some of my inner energy, it will be quickly replenished. So at most, it will only cause temporary mental fatigue and will not damage my foundation.
"Um... Master? Ever since I tasted the sweetness of it one time, I haven't been able to stop. I wanted to ask if Master has any techniques or methods to calm the mind."
Bai Zhi scratched her cheek and asked in a low voice.
Wine, women, wealth, and anger have harmed me too much. From today onward, I will abstain from lust and promiscuity.
If Tamamo-no-Mae can make your eyes turn black after just one time, what will happen if it happens a few more times? Won't you turn into a dried-up dragon?
"You little rascal, why are you asking your teacher this question now?"
Lao Tzu, though seeing through the situation, did not reveal it, and asked with a smile.
"That's because your disciple wants to cultivate in peace, Master, don't you think so?"
Laozi stroked his beard, not commenting on the truth or falsehood of Baizhi's words, "Disciple, if you want the secret to purifying the mind, I can provide you with not just one, but thousands or even tens of thousands."
"But you don't need these."
"Why?"
Bai Zhi was somewhat puzzled.
The old man tapped Bai Zhi's head, and then a red aura swirled around his hand. "See that? This is your temper."
"I see, what does Master mean?"
"Your anger is like a blazing sun, burning fiercely and never dying out. Trying to suppress it with a calming technique is undoubtedly going down the wrong path."
"It's like trying to extinguish the sun with the water of a river; it's just a drop in the ocean."
"Moreover, the more it is suppressed, the more violent it will be when it erupts."
"You and that fox demon did the right thing by venting your excess anger, which will also help your cultivation."
Bai Zhi nodded shyly. Tamamo-no-Mae did seem different from the others. To the others, she seemed to have inexhaustible power, but with Tamamo-no-Mae, she could feel a sense of depletion.
"So, disciple, you should do more of this kind of thing?"
This conclusion differed somewhat from what Bai Zhi had expected. She had thought that she was being severely influenced by desires, so she needed some way to become more clear-headed and rational.
But according to what Lao Tzu said, it seems that this is not the case. On the contrary, one should have more of it in order to balance one's temper and thus achieve a more rational state.
"This is a double effect. You know, dragons are inherently lustful, and your bloodline is also very pure, so naturally you will have a stronger instinct in this regard. This is your nature."
"In addition to your strong temper, the two influence each other, which makes it difficult for you to control yourself."
"However, instinctive venting is not a good solution, as it will cause temporary mental damage. It is better to focus on the balance of Yin and Yang."
"Is there any way, Master?"
"Hehe, you little rascal, you don't think for yourself, you just want your master to help you."
"After all, he's my master. If I have a problem, I'll definitely ask my master for help."
"You little guy."
Laozi shook his head. "Very well, since you've put it that way, it would be petty of me not to offer some solutions."
Immediately, Laozi pointed a finger at Baizhi's forehead.
"Your fiery temper symbolizes extreme yang, which, when combined with yin, can enhance the cultivation of both parties. If you encounter this situation again, use this technique."
Bai Zhi was stunned for a moment, and it took her quite a while to understand the information in her mind.
In short, when she plays games with others in the future, she can not only expend her anger, but also increase the strength of both herself and her opponent.
Although, because her strength was already high enough, the increase in power was minimal for her.
However, for the other party, this improvement may not be low, unless the other party is a being of the Fei Xiao level, otherwise it is generally quite noticeable.
"I have this feeling that I've turned into someone that would be coveted by female demons..."
Bai Zhi muttered a speechless complaint, but she was still quite happy inside, since it was beneficial for both parties.
"Alright, I've done some calculations, and that monkey should be arriving at Mount Ling soon. If you want to witness it, you can set off now."
"Huh, Master, you actually brought this up on your own initiative?"
Bai Zhi was somewhat surprised, because in her memory, Laozi had previously seemed to want to kill the monkey.
It's somewhat unbelievable that she would now take the initiative to go and take a look there.
"That's because the journey to the West is about to be completed. Since that monkey is considered your friend, it wouldn't hurt to go and see him. Besides, he won't have as many tribulations to deal with in the future."
"His destiny has been fulfilled..."
Lao Tzu looked up at the sky and said, “The next generation of the chosen one is being born. My disciple, you must not disturb the birth of the chosen one. You must know that small things can be changed, but the big things cannot be defied.”
Bai Zhi blinked. She roughly knew who the next chosen one of the Taishang Laojun was talking about. If she wasn't mistaken, it should be Chen Xiang.
Fortunately, I didn't manage to stop the birth of agarwood back then, otherwise who knows what would have happened.
"Besides, you haven't been to Mount Ling yet. The path of Buddha, though a minor one, is still worth exploring."
"Okay, Master."
Chapter 953 Discussion with the Medicine Buddha
"I have long heard of Bai Zhi Zhen Jun, and seeing you today, I can confirm that you are truly extraordinary."
On Mount Ling, a slender Buddha nodded slightly to Bai Zhi, seemingly very interested.
"Greetings, Venerable One. May I ask who you are?"
Upon seeing this Buddha, Bai Zhi was somewhat surprised, because the aura emanating from him was somewhat similar to that of the Abundant Star God.
"True Lord, you may simply call me the Medicine Master."
The gaunt Buddha smiled compassionately at Bai Zhi, “I observe that you, True Lord, possess considerable knowledge of the Way of Abundance. Coincidentally, I also have some minor insights into this matter. Would you be willing to discuss the Way with me, True Lord?”
After listening to the other party's introduction, Bai Zhi suddenly realized why this Buddha had a similar feeling to the God of Abundance. It turned out to be the Medicine Buddha.
