Chapter 197 Law Enforcement Elder Guards the World (10)

Recruiting qualified demonic cultivation disciples?

Which immortal cultivation sect would recruit demonic cultivation disciples?

Why the sudden change?

As Shen Zhuo read further, the requirements were listed clearly: recruits must be between 5 and 10 years old, must possess one of the five elements of spiritual roots or demonic bones, and must not have any innocent bloodshed on their hands…

As he continued reading, he noticed that most of the assessments had been changed, with the addition of a new Illusion Array assessment.

Illusion Array?

In his previous life, Shen Zhuo had never experienced such an assessment.

What caused the Divine Movement Sect to change?

Shen Zhuo intended to investigate, but before he could, he saw two disciples of the Divine Movement Sect flying over on their swords. They were about to begin testing spiritual energy for the assessment.

These two disciples were unfamiliar faces to Shen Zhuo. He distinctly remembered that in his previous life, it was Zhu Ning and Luo Xiaoyu who came, and they required payment in spirit stones for the assessment.

One of the disciples used his spiritual energy to amplify his voice. “Everyone who wishes to join the Divine Movement Sect for cultivation, line up for the spiritual root assessment.”

The other disciple added, “Senior Brother Yang, should we also invite the Law Enforcement Elder? It’s the first time we’re recruiting demonic cultivation disciples, and it wouldn’t be good if things got out of hand.”

Senior Brother Yang nodded, and Junior Sister Gu began to send a message through hand seals. Bai Tang happened to arrive at this moment and appeared directly there.

The two disciples hurriedly bowed, showing great respect. “Disciples pay respects to the Law Enforcement Elder.”

Bai Tang nodded in acknowledgment. “Carry on.”

As Bai Tang scanned the crowd, her eyes fell on Shen Zhuo. He looked like a smaller version of Wen Su, with similar facial features, just thinner.

He had finally given himself a chance, which also gave her a chance, allowing them to arrive earlier.

But… something seemed odd. Such resentment at such a young age, with such a fierce expression in the eyes.

Shen Zhuo was extremely surprised but quickly lowered his head to avoid arousing Bai Tang’s suspicion.

Why was Bai Tang the Law Enforcement Elder?

He remembered that Bai Tang and the former Law Enforcement Elder, Qing Shu, were killed by the Taowu in the great array formation, their souls scattered. The subsequent Law Enforcement Elder was Tan Xiao, a disciple of Juan Bai.

Why hadn’t Bai Tang died? Could all these changes be because of her?

“Wood spiritual root, you can go in.”

“Unfortunately, no spiritual root.”

Senior Brother Yang was uncertain. “Law Enforcement Elder, isn’t this a sign of bone grinding?”

The boy was extremely nervous. The term “bone grinding” didn’t sound like something good, and demonic cultivation was particularly revolting to many. Could he still go in?

Bai Tang asked in a gentle voice, “What’s your name?”

The little boy adjusted his clothes and replied, “Sheng Tingfeng.”

Bai Tang patted his head gently and said, “I hope you can pass the trial, Sheng Tingfeng. Good luck. If you succeed, you represent those who, like you, should be able to cultivate openly and uprightly but have been unfairly judged, prejudiced against, and rejected. Go ahead.”

Bai Tang’s words were like a soothing balm to Sheng Tingfeng. He smiled at Bai Tang, revealing his white teeth.

“I will definitely enter the Divine Movement Sect!”

Shen Zhuo looked at Bai Tang, who now seemed so casual but still commanded respect in her demeanor, wearing her green robes. She hadn’t done anything extraordinary, yet she exuded an aura that inspired awe.

It wasn’t long before it was Shen Zhuo’s turn. He placed his hand on the crystal ball. This crystal ball was clearly different from the one in his previous life. Back then, he had a wood spiritual root with an innate demonic bone hidden within him.

Senior Brother Yang’s first observation was the rich green color. He began, “Single wood spiritual root, combined with…”

Before he could finish, the entire crystal ball was flooded with black.

“This… Law Enforcement Elder…”

“Innate demonic bone,” Bai Tang glanced at it and said.

Shen Zhuo’s gaze grew heavy. How had they detected his innate demonic bone? Knowing the Divine Movement Sect’s character, they would surely dispose of him without hesitation.

“A once-in-a-millennium genius in demonic cultivation,” Bai Tang patted his shoulder. “What’s your name, little genius?”

Shen Zhuo was surprised by Bai Tang’s reaction. Shouldn’t immortal cultivators be strongly opposed to demonic cultivation? Why was she…?
