Mysteries of Immortal Puppet Master

Chapter 1387: Chapter 550: Mother’s Divination

Ning Zhuo observed the entire process, seeing Buddhist Doctor Meng Yaoyin resolve the hidden threat effortlessly, and felt genuinely happy: "Mother, you’ve awoken this time with a surge in power, becoming so strong."

Buddhist Doctor Meng Yaoyin flicked her wrist, lightly tapping Ning Zhuo’s head with the handle of the scythe: "How many times have I taught you not to be arrogant and complacent."

"I can easily handle this, it’s merely a specialization, having some grasp over the Monster Path."

Ning Zhuo covered his head: "Yes, yes, Mother, I was wrong. I indeed need to be more humble and cautious."

Buddhist Doctor Meng Yaoyin sat cross-legged on the ground, patting the stone brick beside her: "Come, Little Zhuo, sit by Mother’s side. Tell me what you’ve experienced."

Ning Zhuo joyfully sat cross-legged next to Buddhist Doctor Meng Yaoyin, close to the cold mechanical body, yet his heart felt incomparably warm.

He recounted everything he had experienced after leaving the Yin Tide Black Swamp.

Buddhist Doctor Meng Yaoyin listened and nodded in praise: "Little Zhuo, you did very well."

"Firstly, you didn’t follow convention, but instead infiltrated Shuyu Pavilion ahead of time, obtaining what you needed and acting flexibly."

"Secondly, you didn’t simply follow my message, didn’t rush to seize the talisman industry, nor meet with my close friends from life. This is a decision you made after assessing the situation, prudent and wise."

"Thirdly, you forged your own path. This is what Mother finds most satisfying. Alas, you’ve grown up! A true good son of mine."

Mother’s praise filled Ning Zhuo with joy. But he was more concerned about Meng Yaoyin’s injuries: "Mother, has your progress in the Monster Path helped much with your Dao injury? Are we seeking opportunities related to the Monster Path next? Can we repair your mechanical body?"

Buddhist Doctor Meng Yaoyin: "I can suppress the Dao injury somewhat. There’s no need to be greedy for opportunities on the Monster Path. Fortunately, thanks to you, with Wu Hen’s Dao Transformation Bead, I can advance further on the Monster Path."

"However, digesting all these will require time."

"I will enter slumber once again."

"Ah?" Ning Zhuo widened his eyes, showing surprise, and urgently asked, "Mother, when will you awaken this time?"

Buddhist Doctor Meng Yaoyin reached out to caress Ning Zhuo’s head, gently comforting: "This time, the slumber is far safer than before, though it will be longer."

"Do not underestimate Wu Hen; his value to me is immense."

"However, there is also some ’cost’ involved."

"During my slumber in closed cultivation, try to repair my mechanical body as much as possible. But the mechanical body must at least reach the Nascent Soul Level, otherwise it cannot bear my power upon awakening."

Ning Zhuo immediately promised with patted chest: "Mother, don’t worry; leave it all to me."

Buddhist Doctor Meng Yaoyin laughed three times, then softly touched Ning Zhuo’s head three times: "My son has grown up and can now lighten my burdens."

The laughter subdued, and Buddhist Doctor Meng Yaoyin shifted topics: "But be careful, the Myriad Images Sect has regulations prohibiting private duels, yet it’s far from a safe place."

"Your cultivation level is only at Foundation Establishment, while around you are those at Golden Core and Nascent Soul Levels—a host of powerful individuals. Within the Main Mountain Gate, there are those at Transforming Spirit Level and even Refining Void Level, choosing not to reveal themselves."

"Compared to them, you are as inconsequential as an ant."

"For instance, the one plotting against you just now has extremely abundant and profound Qi fortune of the Demon Path."

Ning Zhuo nodded: "I’ve already tried my best to remain low-key. But some things must be done! Joining the Myriad Images Sect is already crucial to my Dao path."

Buddhist Doctor Meng Yaoyin had already grasped Ning Zhuo’s experiences and plans, and agreed: "White Paper Immortal City is indeed a treasure land for building the foundation of your Dao path. Your intention to join a faction within the Myriad Images Sect to safeguard the future gains of White Paper Immortal City is correct."

Ning Zhuo was very pleased to hear Meng Yaoyin’s agreement: "Mother, which faction in the Myriad Images Sect should I ally with?"

Buddhist Doctor Meng Yaoyin lightly tapped Ning Zhuo’s nose: "Little Zhuo, your understanding of the Myriad Images Sect is already more aligned with the current times than Mother’s. However... I can still perform a bit of divination for you."

She immediately closed her eyes, raised one arm and a hand vertically in front of her chest, the Big Snake Scythe resting horizontally on her knees, as a profound aura surged around her.

Soon, she opened her eyes, looking at Ning Zhuo.

Her eyes were deep and timeless, revealing infinite mysterious possibilities.

Ning Zhuo gazed at her expectantly.

Buddhist Doctor Meng Yaoyin chuckled lightly: "Little Zhuo, Mother has already divined a few matters."

"We foresee that your participation in the Nanming Fire Furnace trial tomorrow is bound to fail."

Ning Zhuo was greatly surprised: "Ah?"

"Even with the aid of the White Rainbow Righteousness Festival, is it still so?"

"I felt the first two rounds were quite easy."

Buddhist Doctor Meng Yaoyin nodded with a smile.

Ning Zhuo scratched his head: "There’s something amiss. I possess the Cremation Prajna Spirit Liberation Sutra. By burning pill furnace fragments, I can enhance the Vermilion Bird Artifact Spirit. Such a method is definitely a trump card!"

Buddhist Doctor Meng Yaoyin smiled and shook her head.

Ning Zhuo immediately realized: "I understand. Tomorrow’s scenario, I shouldn’t use the Cremation Prajna Spirit Liberation Sutra!"

Buddhist Doctor Meng Yaoyin: "The origins of this sutra are extraordinary; in this current era, it’s best not to expose it."

Ning Zhuo pondered: "If that’s the case, then tomorrow I need not attend. Wait? Will the leader obtain the pill furnace tomorrow? He too has the qualification to participate."

Buddhist Doctor Meng Yaoyin shook her head without speaking.

Ning Zhuo thought again: "That’s not right. Even if I am destined to lose tomorrow, I must attend. Just playing along will suffice. As for the leader, there are too many people focusing on this trial; it’s best not for him to show up."

Buddhist Doctor Meng Yaoyin emitted a comforting laugh: "Little Zhuo, you maintain a tranquil mindset, unperturbed by victory or defeat, very good indeed."
