As the golden-haired mechanical girl turned and left the Still Pond of Wisdom during the loading process, another figure entered the Still Pond of Wisdom within the mountain.
It was Senior Eternal Fire!
When Senior Eternal Fire entered the Still Pond of Wisdom, he immediately saw the true form of the pond, which had been drained. He hurriedly walked forward and reached out to catch the weakened Still Pond of Wisdom and continuously infused it with his spiritual energy. The Still Pond of Wisdom was a relic of a Sage, and its significance to the scholarly faction was immense. It couldn’t afford to be lost.
The projection ended here.
The subsequent part of the plot should involve Senior Eternal Fire merging with the Still Pond of Wisdom, followed by the scene where Song Shuhang entered with his pendants.
After the projection dissipated, Song Shuhang remained silent.
He recalled how the golden-haired mechanical girl had once shouted, “Store Manager, save me!”
It was clear that she had been fatally stabbed by Song Shuhang the last time they met… Yet, at this critical moment, her first call for help was still directed at Song Shuhang, the restaurant manager.
After the projection dissipated, Senior Eternal Fire, now possessed by the Still Pond of Wisdom, had an awkward expression on his face.
“Sympathy? Fate?” Song Shuhang turned around and looked at it while offering a genuine smile.
Even though the golden-haired mechanical girl had lost an important core, the Still Pond of Wisdom would likely have been completely absorbed if she hadn’t. There would be nothing left, right?
Indeed, it was fate…a cruel fate!
Pavilion Master Chu pondered for a moment and asked, “Is this girl in the projection related to the Heavenly Dao Ball?”
With Song Shuhang’s brain currently experiencing a meltdown, complex questions were left to Pavilion Master Chu to contemplate. She raised essential questions on Song Shuhang’s behalf.
“To be precise, it should be the mechanical part of this girl’s body that is related to the departed Heavenly Dao. Although I don’t know what happened to the mechanical part, it became so weak that it had to attach itself to a human…However, based on my experience, the mechanical parts on that girl’s body are likely at the level of a Dao Artifact.” The Still Pond of Wisdom spoke in a deep voice and used its ancient, majestic voice to restore its image.
“A Dao Artifact.” Song Shuhang raised his head and gazed at the sky.
Song Shuhang had already encountered several Dao Artifacts that other cultivators would never encounter in their entire lives…the big-eyed planet boss, the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber, the golden-haired mechanical girl, Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet, considered a semi-Dao Artifact, and the world of the black lotus, golden lotus, and core that exhibited Dao Artifact characteristics.
Pavilion Master Chu Dumb Hair pondered for a moment, then knocked on Song
Shuhang’s shoulder. “Is the core of that golden-haired girl with you?”
“Yes, that’s correct,” Song Shuhang nodded. That strange core reactor had already become one of his small golden cores!
Now, the core reactor had become an inseparable part of his body. It was one of the basic facilities of his cultivation chat talent and an indispensable part of the overall framework of Song Shuhang.
“So, could she have rushed out of the Still Pond of Wisdom to look for you?” Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet reminded him.
The Still Pond of Wisdom added, “That blonde girl left this space just as the loading bar ended, and Tyrannical Song, you came in. You both entered and left almost simultaneously, without any time gap.”
The White Dragon wrapped her arms around Song Shuhang’s neck and yawned.
Song Shuhang was speechless.
Did he have to be in such a hurry?
He had just defeated King Kun and the Heavenly Dao Molt Ball, and he was as weak as a mollusk. It didn’t hurt at all.
There was still a break in the action.
“Don’t panic,” Pavilion Master Chu comforted him. “It’s time to use the treasure of King Kun that you concealed in the Inner World. The locations of the spirit stones you buried in batches have already been marked by the core assistant. You only need to think about it, and the core assistant can dig them out instantly, sacrifice them, and convert them into the power of a strike.”
“Are you guys demons?” Song Shuhang widened his eyes.
No wonder the core assistant had marked the places where he had hidden his treasures.
Was it easy for a man to hide some money? Was it easy?
It hadn’t been easy for him to reach the peak of his life and inherit the wealth of Senior King Kun. Was he going to spend it all away?
Moreover…the golden-haired mechanical girl wasn’t a complete entity. She was divided into two parts, the physical body and the mechanical body. With a single blow, the golden-haired mechanical girl’s physical body would definitely die. This was something Song Shuhang didn’t want to see.
After thinking up to this point, Song Shuhang turned his head and looked at Senior Eternal Fire, now possessed by the Still Pond of Wisdom. Other than spending money, did the Still Pond of Wisdom have any other alternatives? If he really had to spend money, would the scholarly faction reimburse him for the expenses?
Seemingly reading Song Shuhang’s thoughts, Senior Eternal Fire, now possessed by the Still Pond of Wisdom, smiled faintly and said, “Dealing with that golden-haired girl, who is the embodiment of a Dao Artifact, is actually not that complicated.”
“Still Pond of Wisdom, please go on,” Song Shuhang quickly sat up.
Fairy Creation and the black-skinned Soft Feather sat in a row with him and pretended to listen attentively.
“It’s very simple. If you want to deal with her, you just need to push her out of the Golden Lotus World and transfer her to the main world,” the Still Pond of Wisdom said slowly.
“Transfer her to the main world?” Song Shuhang had wanted to ask the virtuous lamia to keep her in the Golden Lotus World and prevent her from escaping.
“She retrieved a portion of the Heavenly Dao Sphere that the Sage had devoured from me. However, due to the lack of a core, the Heavenly Dao Sphere that she had retrieved had nowhere to be placed. In this environment where the Heavenly Dao has collapsed, there is only one possibility for her to step into the main world.” the Still Pond of Wisdom performed a double fist pump.
If her core were still intact, she could transfer the existence of the Heavenly Dao Ball into the core and evolve herself into a perfect Dao Artifact.
Unfortunately, she had lost her core.
Song Shuhang sat up straight and asked, “If it explodes, then the golden-haired girl…”
“Of course, she would explode too,” the Still Pond of Wisdom replied.
Song Shuhang pondered for a moment, organized his words, and asked, “Although I’m thinking a bit too optimistically…l still want to ask, Senior, is there any clever way to allow the golden-haired girl to survive or give her a chance to ‘resurrect’ and only blow up the part of the Heavenly Dao Ball and the mechanical body?”
“You already know that it’s wishful thinking, yet you still ask?” The Still Pond of Wisdom sneered.
“I’m merely hoping,” Song Shuhang said with a sigh.
“I’m sorry, I’m not human, so I can’t understand your feelings,” the Still Pond of Wisdom replied coldly.
Song Shuhang was speechless.
“I don’t have a plan that can help you. If you really want to hope, then try it yourself. However, you have to be prepared to pay a huge price. If you don’t pay, you won’t get anything in return,” the Still Pond of Wisdom waved its hand at Song Shuhang to come forward. It seemed that it wanted to pass on something to him..
