In Zhou Bai's mind, he went over everything he was going to do next. He would attract the investment of immortals and gods in the Heavenly Court to increase the amount of laziness points, and then use those points to quickly learn all the star points of the Lazi Map. Then he'd find an opportunity to play around with the Four Ministries' righteous gods, helping to clear the weeds from above their heads, enhancing the star points with green fate. On the side of the Heavenly Demon, besides transforming and manufacturing mechanical retainers, he'd also chat more with the Heavenly Demon Queen, trying to learn back the technology of the Quantum Communication Network from the Heavenly Demon. "As for East China City..." Zhou Bai looked at the contents of the Lazi Map star points: "On one hand, it's about deciphering the Lazi Map to see if it could help improve the cultivation efficiency for Zuo Dao. On the other hand, we need to sort out the Sky Flipping Sect in East China City." Zhou Bai rubbed his temples, with countless plans and strategies running through his mind. 'Everything is progressing smoothly over at the Heavenly Court, and I've been getting along quite well with Ming Yue and Wei He. It shouldn't be long before a large amount of laziness points come in.' Christina couldn't help but say, "You call that getting along well?" Zhou Bai replied, "When they see me, they're happy, and when I see them, I'm happy. If that's not getting along well, then what is?" Christina: "..." She suddenly turned to Elsa and said, "Elsa, let me tell you, never become a bootlicker." Elsa, who was running around in the knowledge sea, stopped and curiously asked, "What's a bootlicker?" Christina watched Elsa's adorable girlish appearance, suddenly tightened her heart, stepped forward to hug her, and reminded her, "Elsa, remember, never believe Zhou Bai when he says he likes you..." Zhou Bai rolled his eyes: "What nonsense are you filling Elsa's head with? Would I ever harm her? I used to clean up her poop." Christina: "Because you even don't let go of her poop, I'm worried. Elsa, ignore him and continue listening to me." Elsa listened to Christina in confusion. Meanwhile, Zhou Bai's expression changed as he felt a pair of cold hands coming from behind, wrapping around his waist. A cold voice near his ear from Xuan Nu said, "What are you thinking?" Zhou Bai: "Just some cultivation things. It feels like my cultivation speed increases a lot with you by my side." Xuan Nu smiled: "Zhou Bai... do you... want me to go to Central City to help you?" Zhou Bai could feel that when Ming Yue took him away initially, Xuan Nu was upset for some time. Afterward, both sides tacitly avoided mentioning Ming Yue and Central City, as if that thing never happened. Until today, when Xuan Nu brought up Central City, Zhou Bai's heart slightly tightened, and with a calm tone, he said, "It's okay, things there are going well, in about three months it should be finished." "Plus, Central City is too dangerous, it's better for our true selves to stay in East China City." Xuan Nu gave a gentle acknowledgment, resting her face on Zhou Bai's back, listening to the sound of his heartbeat: "Are you hungry? Want me to make you something to eat?" "No need." Zhou Bai looked at the contents of the Lazi Map star points and said softly, "You staying here with me is enough." With Xuan Nu's beauty pressure in play, the contents of the Lazi Map star points seemed to become more comprehensible, countless pieces of information flashed before Zhou Bai's eyes, which he silently absorbed and transformed into his own knowledge. In the knowledge sea, Christina said, "See Elsa, this is a bootlicker here. Don't ever imitate Xuan Nu, relying on a man all the time, we women must learn to rely on ourselves." Elsa was puzzled: "But she looks pretty happy to me, though." Christina said, "What do you know? Look at them now, as sweet as honey, but in three months, they could be stabbing each other." Zhou Bai raised an eyebrow, didn't listen further to Christina's nonsense, and focused his attention on the Lazi Map. The nine star points of the Lazi Map, except the last one 'Laziness Catastrophe', which grants benefits by relinquishing control, all other points from the first to the eighth enhance both the internal and external physical bodies, improving defensive abilities. From Zhou Bai's current level and perspective, he could feel that they contained top-tier Body Refining Technique and protective Taoist techniques. A day and night passed quickly, after Zhou Bai read through it all once, the cultivation methods of the nine star points of the Lazi Map were already imprinted in his mind. ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ novel·fıre·net Zhou Bai sighed lightly in his heart: 'The Lazi Map is powerful, but it mainly enhances physical qualities, the ninth point 'Laziness Catastrophe' further enhances laziness points... its help for cultivation improvement is limited.' Regarding the laziness points, through studying the Lazi Map, Zhou Bai still hadn't found any accurate methods for practice or use. Evidently, the Lazi Map still couldn't use laziness points to boost itself. This also thwarted Zhou Bai's idea of using the Lazi Map to help Zuo Dao enhance cultivation levels. What exactly is laziness points? This question has been in Zhou Bai's mind since he received the Nine Heavenly Disasters. For so long, although he always had suspicions, he never confirmed his thoughts. 'Maybe after achieving higher cultivation and understanding more mature star points, I'll understand what laziness points are.' Zhou Bai pondered: "If the Lazi Map offers limited help, another approach must be thought of." Zhou Bai looked at the star points of the Fool's Map, and when it came to improving others' cultivation, the first thing he thought of naturally was turning Zuo Dao into a retainer. But currently, his retainer abilities couldn't steadily enhance Zuo Dao's cultivation, nor was his cultivation enough to analyze the principles of the Fool's Map thoroughly. Hence, Zhou Bai's only idea was... "Use fortune to enhance the Fool's Map star points to see if a method for further improving retainers could be discovered." However, Zhou Bai had only four green fortunes at hand to enhance star points, whereas the Fool's Map had nine star points. 'Upon close inspection, the most likely to meet my criteria are two star points: the one capable of extracting retainer knowledge, 'Wisdomless - Sacrifice', and the one transforming opponents into foolish retainers, 'Madness - Foolishness'.' Zhou Bai glanced at the gemstones in the knowledge sea and decided to try both once to see which one would be more effective. He first embedded four green fortunes into 'Wisdomless - Sacrifice', hoping for an ability to transfer knowledge back, but after four green fortunes, there was no qualitative change, only a significant reduction in laziness point consumption during knowledge extraction. Zhou Bai shook his head and directly used the gemstone's Time Reverse ability, this time embedding four green fortunes into 'Madness - Foolishness', immediately resulting in a qualitative change.
