Chapter 686 Resolving Karma (1)
These Dharma treasures were protected by the power of space and could isolate various destructive powers. They were easier to preserve than some Dharma treasures.
Next, he plundered the Black Wind Sect’s treasure vault, pill room, and other places. These locations were protected by Array Formations and were not in the center of Song Shi’s bombardment. However, the buildings were destroyed and some inferior medicinal herbs were destroyed. The good medicinal herbs and pills were well-protected.
After collecting the resources of a sect, Song Shi directly went from a beggar to a rich man. He did not have to worry about resources for the time being.
“It’s convenient to go anywhere now.”
Song Shi was in a good mood as he turned around and left.
“This demon is finally gone.”
“How f*cking terrifying. He actually destroyed our sect that has been passed down for hundreds of years alone.”
“Even now, I don’t know how the sect offended him to actually encounter such a calamity.”
The people hiding in the corners or escaping the center of the killing move all had lingering fear as they looked in the direction where Song Shi had disappeared a long time ago.
Song Shi did not appear, nor was he worried that these people’s revenge would implicate the Cao Family. He reckoned that no one would expect him to be in a mortal human city.
The only thing he had to consider was the huge commotion caused by the fight last night.
When he returned to the Cao family without a word, the courtyard he was in had already turned into a huge pit. There were many guards guarding it. Otherwise, there would have been many people surrounding it.
When Song Shi returned, it was already evening. After seeing him, Cao Zongwan and the other Connate cultivator from the Cao family immediately came over respectfully.
“Senior, we thought you had left.”
Cao Zongwan smiled.
“It’s not time yet. I won’t leave.”
Song Shi glanced at the huge pit. “How did you deal with this?”
“We told the outside world that it was caused by a meteorite falling. Ordinary people believe it very much, but cultivators sense that there is an obvious residue of power here and are suspicious.”
“Then warn them not to think too much, let alone come over to take a look. Curiosity kills the cat.” Song Shi said expressionlessly.
He still needed to stay here for more than a month. He did not want some rats to come and disturb him.
“Yes, I’ll try my best to warn them.”
Cao Zongwan nodded seriously.
Song Shi observed the area that had been blasted into a huge pit and said, “Build me a thatched hut beside here. It’s better to bring a courtyard.”
“Senior, we still have many good courtyards.”
Cao Zongwan said, “It’s very quiet.”
“I don’t live here. The curious guy can’t find the reason. Do you think he’ll ask you?”
Song Shi asked, “The reason for the meteorite falling from the sky is not convincing enough. What if others think that it’s a huge treasure?”
Cao Zongwan reacted and said gratefully, “Then I’ll have to trouble Senior to take charge here.”
He turned around. “Great Elder, quickly arrange for someone to gather the best materials and build that straw hut for Senior overnight.”
“I’m on it.”
The First Elder nodded and cupped his fists to bid farewell to Song Shi before getting busy.
“Senior, there’s nothing here. Why don’t you move first and rest somewhere else for the night and eat something?”
Cao Zongwan suggested.
“Yes, let’s eat something.”
Song Shi had not eaten for a long time and really wanted to eat.
When they arrived at the reception hall of the Cao family’s best courtyard, Cao Zongwan ordered the best things to be served. All kinds of delicacies were quickly placed on the table.
Looking at the fine wine and delicacies, Song Shi secretly affected the rules and took a bite of the beef.
The beef that he enjoyed disappeared into his stomach. At the same time, his physique increased.
“There should be a notification at this time. For example, after eating a piece of beef, Physique +1.”
Song Shi thought strangely and continued to eat in large mouthfuls. His Physique kept increasing.
He had used the rule that eating could increase his strength to increase his Physique. However, the increase in his Physique was huge, equivalent to magnifying the benefits brought by food many times.
Otherwise, such food would not have much effect on him. At most, he would be able to fill his stomach and recover some strength.
“Mastering the rules is equivalent to turning something rotten into something magical.”
Song Shi thought to himself. As he ate, he experienced the benefits of food.
As everything he ate had been converted into Physique attributes at a high price, his stomach had always been empty. It was like a bottomless pit that he could keep eating.
This made the Cao family admire him greatly.
“Did you see that? This is an expert. He’s so good at eating.”
“Senior, you are already an Immortal God. You can’t be judged by common sense.”
“That’s right. Senior is resourceful and is from a different world from us.”
The maids in the corner discussed softly, their eyes filled with stars.
Song Shi used the same method to increase his attributes many times in a row, but it still resulted in the restoration of the rules, causing the difficulty of increasing it to increase.
“I can’t just keep pulling wool from one place. I have to constantly change or increase the value of the price.”
It was not easy to convert. The food quickly filled his stomach. Song Shi stopped eating and stood up. “It’s about time. Let’s go out for a walk.”
Cao Zongwan hurriedly followed beside him like a sidekick, not a family head.
Song Shi looked at the morning light outside. “There are some things I still have to remind you about. Don’t use my name to intimidate others usually. Don’t think that I have a foundation just because I’m here.”
“I wouldn’t dare.”
Cao Zongwan often promised, “We will definitely not swindle or scare anyone in the name of Senior.”
“That’s for the best. I won’t stay in your Cao family for long. I’ll leave when the time is up. You’ll burn yourself if you play with fire.” Song Shi said coldly.
It was very straightforward to use the tiger’s might to intimidate others, but if there was no tiger holding down the fort, he would quickly be exposed. At that time, he would not even have his underwear left.
“Yes, thank you for your reminder, Senior.”
Cold sweat broke out on Cao Zongwan’s forehead. In the past year, they had indeed been rather arrogant because of Song Shi’s presence. They even thought that even if they offended anyone, they would not be afraid with Song Shi around. If anyone dared to attack them, they would definitely die an ugly death.
In the end, all of this was pointed out by Song Shi. He also realized that it was impossible for such a powerhouse to be used by them. If he used the same method as before, he would definitely suffer a huge loss.
“You’re on your own. It’s not necessarily a good thing to be involved with me too much. You even have to reveal less information about me.”
