My Ability Pool is Superior

“I think I get it.”

Lu Bai nodded thoughtfully: “Just dual Speakers then. You are the Speaker, and it is too.”

“Uh…”

In the main hall, Master Bai Fourteen was stunned for a moment. It looked at Chang Shengtian beside it and nodded with some toothache.

“You can understand it that way.”

Normally, a person can only worship one Immortal.

It’s just like using the public restroom.

You occupy one stall. If you feel it’s uncomfortable squatting there and want to switch, you have to wipe your butt clean first, stand up, and walk a couple steps to change stalls.

So can a person squat in two stalls?

The answer is yes.

It’s just that you have to connect the two stalls into one long stall. If both stalls are willing, then there’s naturally no problem.

It’s about the same for two Immortals. They will simultaneously perform Opening the Crown on Lu Bai, and simultaneously perform the first marginal Possession.

Chang Shengtian flicked his sleeve, and a Black Scaled Great Snake illusion appeared behind him.

“Kid, do you still remember me?”

“So it’s you.”

Seeing that Great Serpent Phantom, Lu Bai raised his eyebrow.

Chang Shengtian disdainfully glanced at Master Bai Fourteen.

“Just proving that I took a fancy to you first, so Little Fourteen won’t say I’m bullying it.”

“But you clearly wanted my life back then, right?”

Lu Bai was shocked. So you call that kind of behavior valuing someone?

Chang Shengtian proudly raised his head: “If you can’t even withstand this bit of test, then it just proves I misjudged you.”

Lu Bai nodded: “Then that’s not strange.”

No wonder an Immortal of its level doesn’t even have a single Spirit Messenger.

Which normal person could withstand that kind of test.

“Cough…”

Master Bai Fourteen timely interrupted the conversation between the man and the snake.

“Since Chang San Zhenren has already given you Taking the Law ahead of time, then let’s start now to avoid missing the time.”

As it spoke, it waved its big hand, and two shrines appeared out of thin air in front of Lu Bai.

Opening the Crown, that is, gathering in.

According to the rules of Opening the Crown, you need to first set up the stove and An Kan, then under the Immortal’s guidance, go to the Four Great Gates headquarters to state your name.

Unfortunately, this process is too cumbersome. Even when Grandma Wang San was still around, many Immortals simplified it as much as possible. Now that she’s gone, even fewer Immortals strictly follow this rule.

Chang Shengtian stood up and glanced at the dim yellow sunset outside the main hall.

“Then hurry up, don’t dawdle.”

……

By the time Lu Bai came out of Master Bai Fourteen’s mansion, it was completely dark.

The street was empty, with hardly any pedestrians.

“Here.”

Master Tao had been guarding the door of the mansion. Seeing Lu Bai come out, he quickly called to him.

He knew Lu Bai was not a local, so he said with concern.

“You definitely have nowhere to stay, right? If you don’t mind, you can come rest at my place.”

“Thanks.” Lu Bai had no objection.

“No need to be polite. We’ll be colleagues from now on?”

“Something like that.”

Learning that Lu Bai would become Master Bai Fourteen’s Spirit Messenger in the future, Master Tao seemed much more casual, and many things he wouldn’t hold back anymore.

Lu Bai followed behind Master Tao, heading east along the street paved with bluestone slabs.

Occasionally, they would see a Night Watchman swaying past them. Master Tao just nodded in greeting, without going up to chat.

“By the way, did Master Bai Fourteen say when he’ll give you Taking the Law?”

In Master Tao’s impression, the detachment process of Taking the Law was quite tormenting. It usually took several days, and the longest he’d seen was a full seven days of delirious talk.

As for more than seven days?

That meant the talent was really too poor, no aptitude to become an Incense Master.

Lu Bai raised his right hand, and a misty white glow appeared in his palm.

“I should already count as a Spirit Messenger.”

Seeing this, Master Tao was dumbfounded, frozen in place as if petrified.

Lu Bai thought for a moment and explained: “I was given Taking the Law by an Immortal before.”

When he repelled the Black Scaled Great Snake, he had a moment of dizziness, which was actually Chang Shengtian giving him Taking the Law.

Hearing this answer, Master Tao breathed a slight sigh of relief.

In his view, this explanation was a bit more reasonable.

Otherwise, completing the entire process so quickly, how terrifying would that aptitude be?

“That’s good, that’s good.”

Master Tao nodded: “Probably in a few days, Fourteenth Master will assign you a jurisdiction area. You can stay at my place for this period, but don’t waste the days. Practice Fourteenth Master’s Method more.”

“You have to go back to the counter tomorrow?”

“Hey, I’m at least the Steward Lord for several villages. How can I stay in the county town enjoying myself?”

Not all of Master Bai Fourteen’s Spirit Messengers live in the county town.

After all, some surrounding villages are quite a distance from the county town. To ensure they can arrive in time if something comes up, the Incense Masters spend most of their time stationed at counters in various places, similar to Mourning Halls equipped with mourning homes.

Lu Bai then said: “In that case, for Liu Family Village, I’ll have to trouble you to pay more attention.”

He still felt that those two Fox Spirits acting so recklessly was a bit suspicious, but unfortunately, he didn’t know the reason for now.

A rippling smile suddenly appeared on Master Tao’s face.

“I get it, I get it. It’s that girl from the Village Head’s family, right?”

Lu Bai was stunned. What are you thinking?

But…

Never mind.

……

Master Tao’s place in the county town was a house on the east side of the county town.

Though it looked a bit neglected from being unoccupied for a long time, it wasn’t dilapidated overall.

It had east and west side rooms, and the main hall looked quite decent.

For the two side rooms, Master Tao had his three apprentices clean them in advance.

Since he didn’t live there most of the time, he casually let Lu Bai pick one to stay in.

Lu Bai pushed open the west side room door. The table and chairs were all complete, and there was a stone kang built against the wall, clearly much better than Xiao Li’s home.

“You’re not going to sleep right away, are you?”

Master Tao stood at the side room doorway.

In his right hand he held a roast chicken wrapped in a lotus leaf, in his left a bag of peanuts, and in his arms half a jin of sweet potato liquor.

……

The yard wasn’t big, but it had a stone table and stools.

Master Tao’s complexion was slightly flushed, and even his speech carried the smell of alcohol.

“Xiao Lu~ Let me tell you, Old Tao, practice more, hic… Burning incense isn’t easy. The Method around here is enough for you to learn…”

“The worldly affairs are chaotic lately. I heard the Incense Masters at Duanjiaba and Little Stone Creek had incidents. Anyway, since Fourteenth Master values you, try to stay in the county town. It’s not safe outside…”

Lu Bai carried the drunk Master Tao and threw him into the east side room.

He returned to the stone stool in the yard, looked up at the bright full moon, and silently pondered what he should do next.

The primary objective was of course to take out the Death Fighters as much as possible.

Unfortunately, it was only the third round of Deathmatch Duels now. The Death Fighters almost never put a title on their heads like he did. Before the positioning information was announced, finding Death Fighters was like finding a needle in a haystack.

Could he only wait patiently?
