Chapter 240 Primordial Spirit Locking Array
Ling Feng curled up in a corner like a wounded little animal, licking his wounds and muttering to himself that he would teach Bai Ke a lesson.
Ling Feng nowadays doesn't have the spirited demeanor one would expect from a protagonist destined for greatness. Whenever he encounters something unpleasant, he subconsciously thinks that Bai Ke is behind it all.
With such constant suspicion, not only Fang Shiqing, who already harbored some ulterior motives towards him, but even his disciples, who originally had a fairly good relationship with him, gradually distanced themselves from him.
Ling Feng didn't pay much attention to this change. To him, these disciples were just people he used to win people's hearts.
Now that Bai Ke is powerful in Tian Ce Palace, these sycophantic disciples will naturally take the initiative to attach themselves to him.
"Hmph, a bunch of opportunists! When I, Ling Feng, become a person of high status, I will make you all kneel before me and beg for my life!"
Ling Feng knelt on the ground and swore fiercely. Fang Shiqing scolded him for a while and then stormed off.
After Fang Shiqing left, Ling Feng slowly got up from the ground and watched him leisurely fly away from the small courtyard, a sinister glint flashing in his eyes.
Young Master Bai was naturally unaware that the protagonist of that destiny, Ling Feng, had already harbored a deep grudge against him.
He was simply sitting leisurely in his chair, chatting and laughing with his disciples who came over.
They were all legitimate disciples; there were almost no headstrong, reckless brutes among them. Since they had all agreed to accept Bai Ke's offer of recruitment, they naturally wanted to come and befriend him.
Soon, Bai Ke gained a general understanding of the disciples that A-Can had recommended to him, and it was clear that A-Can was quite reliable.
Among these ten people, there were none of the cannon fodder, the lackeys of the main villains often found in fantasy novels.
Bai Ke recruited his team so early not to provide kills and equipment for the enemy, but because almost all of them would become trusted confidants whom he would rely on in the future.
Now that his own power is in its initial stage, he must be extremely careful. During their previous conversation, he had already used the evil spirit talent he obtained from the Evil Sword Immortal to probe it.
Some say there are no useless abilities in this world, only people who don't know how to use them. Bai Ke wholeheartedly agrees, and this evil spirit talent is exactly like that.
The system introduction states that Bai Ke's acquired evil spirit talent allows him to sense and manipulate the evil thoughts within others.
So when Bai Ke talks to them, he can naturally perceive their thoughts to some extent, which is similar to the Buddhist concept of telepathy.
According to the evil spirit's talent detection, these future trusted subordinates and partners, although each of them has their own little thoughts, generally speaking, do not have any other excessive desires.
Capable people naturally have their own desires, and Bai Ke didn't criticize these people's little thoughts too harshly; he wasn't so intolerant as to not tolerate even the slightest flaw.
He was very clear that he wanted capable people who could stand on their own, not just yes-men who would obey his orders. By that standard, all 10 people present were worthy of his trust.
Even Su Ziyuan, who had not yet accepted his offer, he did not intend to treat her any differently because of her rejection.
Time will tell. Since this girl is so important to Ling Feng, it's better to keep her by his side and do nothing than to let her provide Ling Feng with some inexplicable opportunities.
Having thoroughly studied the basic plot points of those online novels on Qidian and Zongheng, Bai Ke naturally understood the basic abilities of those destined protagonists.
Calling them unkillable cockroaches would be an underestimation of these people. Young Master Bai would never make the grave mistake of deliberately aiding the enemy, so he intentionally kept her around to participate in the social event.
Bai Ke, who had finally managed to rest, gestured for them to go and chat with him, then closed his eyes and fell into deep thought.
Da Chuan and the others assumed that Bai Ke had gone into meditation, so they couldn't help but lower their voices and communicate with each other telepathically.
Su Ziyuan stared intently at Bai Ke's figure with a strange light in her eyes, lost in thought. It was said that Bai Ke in the past was a fool who knew nothing about human relationships and only knew how to cultivate. Now it seems that the rumors were indeed true.
Ironically, once he broke through to the Nascent Soul stage, he no longer cultivated as diligently as before. Unexpectedly, even today's situation cannot stop his cultivation progress.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel even more favorably toward Bai Ke, thinking that it wouldn't be bad for her to follow him for the time being.
Bai Ke, who appeared to be cultivating with his eyes closed but had actually entered the system space to discuss something with the system, suddenly heard the system's grand and solemn voice resound again:
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully gaining the favor of the important mission Su Ziyuan. This system hereby rewards you with 100 evil points."
"Holy crap, what's this? Could that little girl have fallen for me?" Bai Ke exclaimed in the system space, then excitedly said to the system:
"Haha, what I was missing has come to me! With this newly acquired 100 evil points, I can now exchange for this Primordial Spirit Locking Array!"
"...Ding! Would you like to spend 100 Evil Points to exchange for the mid-grade magic array, the Primordial Spirit Locking Array?"
"Yes, yes, give it to me quickly, I've been eyeing it for so long!" Bai Ke shouted impatiently to the system.
Previously, when I entered the system space, I wanted to exchange a set of combined attack formations for my newly recruited subordinates.
With his current cultivation level, these disciples, whose average cultivation level is only at the Golden Core stage, are still somewhat lacking. If they need to carry out any missions in the future, they may not be of much use.
Bai Ke could only say that he had an omnipotent system, and the system lived up to its name, quickly listing many suitable combination attack formations for Mu Zixuan.
Of all these formations, the one that Bai Ke coveted the most was the Hunyuan Locking Spirit Formation, which was worth 1000 evil points.
As the name suggests, this magic array is a top-tier array used to trap and surround enemies, well... within Bai Ke's current spending power.
If Da Chuan and the other ten people set up this formation together, it can limit the cultivation level of anyone who is no more than one major stage above their own.
In other words, these disciples, whose average cultivation level is around the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, can at most restrict cultivators at the Great Perfection of the Golden Core realm and a small number of cultivators at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm when they unite in formation.
What's even more amazing is that this magic circle can transfer damage between people. In other words, attacking anyone inside the circle is almost like attacking 10 people at the same time.
With such damage transferred and spread out, it's practically the perfect weapon for defeating enemies of a higher level, but the price is a bit high.
