Zuo Dao was still contemplating how to persuade Zhou Bai to mend his ways, while Zhou Bai and Xuan Nu were already hand in hand, crossing the long underground corridor and arriving at a large hall. The underground base they were in now was where the Sky Flipping Sect followers Liu Gu and the others had previously attacked Donghua City. This can be considered one of the underground bases that the Sky Flipping Sect had been operating in Donghua City for years. After Zhou Bai drove away the original owners, he found the facilities here were complete, the space was quite large, and the entrances and exits were very hidden. He decisively occupied it as another development base for the Primordial Sect. Recently, Zhou Bai started recruiting followers on a large scale, sharing his abilities, but not everyone was granted the ability of Tang Ruhai. His choice was to give the ability of Tang Ruhai to the majority of people with poor cultivation aptitude, ordinary disposition, and those who wished to live a normal life. This would allow their lives to be more stable. Once they fully trust Yuanshi Tianzun and become ignorant followers, he could draw out the Power of Deformation, achieving a win-win situation. After all, most ordinary people don't have the disposition or courage to withstand the distortions caused by the Heavenly Dao. Giving them the Yan Pressure ability would only make them die faster with faster cultivation. However, Zhou Bai also plans to select some human cultivators with strong aptitude and talent, to share the Yan Pressure ability with them, speeding up their cultivation efficiency and making them stronger. If they can trust and worship to become ignorant followers or worshiping followers, that would be even better. So that Zhou Bai could draw out their Power of Deformation, which means he could allow them to cultivate the Five Divine Skills almost without side effects. Moreover, if they become Angel Envoys, they could convey Zhou Bai's voice. Additionally, just by chanting Zhou Bai's name, they can unleash the Madness Disaster.

"The Madness Diagram is about developing followers' strength to have formidable subordinates, thereby increasing combat power." Zhou Bai sighed in his heart: "Only now, as I begin to develop followers on a large scale, have I truly and gradually realized the power of the Madness Diagram." "If, during the Heavenly Arena battle, I had hundreds of thousands of ignorant followers, each enduring up to 1 point of pollution, they would have absorbed hundreds of thousands of pollution consumption for me, allowing me to accumulate hundreds of thousands of pollution points. If I also had a dozen people mastering the Five Divine Skills, whose pollution points could be absorbed by me, using the Five Divine Skills without limitation, with well-equipped armor and weapons, the outcome of this battle would be vastly different." "Cultivating powerful followers is the true way to utilize the power of the Madness Diagram, and even the coveted forces." Zhou Bai wasn't entirely unaware of this in the past; he just hadn't decided to take action. But now, as he pursued greater combat power, some of his bottom lines were slightly lowered. So, as Zuo Dao followed the two people into the hall, what he saw was dozens of cultivators practicing various breathing exercises, Dao techniques, and martial arts. Among them were many like Jiang Weishan who were students from Donghua Dao School, and Zuo Dao noticed he recognized quite a few people. Zuo Dao exclaimed in surprise: "Jing Xiu, Xia Li, Lu Wanzhen... Why are they here too?" Zhou Bai smiled slightly: "Not only you, this time I plan to share my cultivation secrets with more people." Jing Xiu and others also saw Zuo Dao and immediately came over to say hello. Although these classmates didn't have the aptitude of Zhou Bai, Zuo Dao, or Qian Wangsun, they were selected and entered Dao School's special training class. Although they seemed unremarkable compared to Zhou Bai, they were considered human elites and had ties with Zhou Bai. Zhou Bai now plans to fully use the power of the Madness Disaster to cultivate them into powerful followers, enhancing his combat power, so he won't always have to fight alone in the future. Jing Xiu looked at Zuo Dao, delighted: "Brother Zhou Bai, did you really bring Zuo Dao back here?" Xia Li exclaimed excitedly: "Zuo Dao! We finally figured out why Zhou Bai's cultivation is so fast! Yuanshi Tianzun, it's Yuanshi Tianzun!" Both were very enthusiastic towards Zuo Dao, but when looking at Xuan Nu who walked alongside, there was still some subtle barriers and instinctive distance. Xuan Nu looked so much like Xiao Pei, yet she wasn't Xiao Pei. According to Yuanshi Tianzun and Zhou Bai, Xuan Nu was Xiao Pei after aberration, who was rescued by Yuanshi Tianzun and appointed as the Primordial Sect Saintess, having lost the memory of Xiao Pei. This made Jing Xiu and others have complex feelings towards Xuan Nu, as Zhou Bai told them Xuan Nu once had an aberration body identity, which always made them a bit uncomfortable. And seeing Xuan Nu holding Zhou Bai's hand tightly, that feeling became even more intricate. Xuan Nu looked at the two people, her mind filled with thoughts: 'These two women seem to have a good relationship with Zhou Bai. Unfortunately, they're too weak, how dare they compete with me? Only the strong deserve Zhou Bai.' With this thought, Xuan Nu gripped Zhou Bai's hand tighter, looked at them with a smirk: 'You'll never have a chance to be with Zhou Bai in this life. Once my power is strong enough, I'll go to Central City and slap Ming Yue to death, so no one can share Zhou Bai with me.' While Zuo Dao was puzzled: "What's Yuanshi Tianzun?" Zhou Bai explained on the side: "Yuanshi Tianzun is an ancient immortal. I inadvertently obtained his inheritance, consumed the Longevity Dao Fruit he left, and gained an ability to accelerate cultivation..." Separating himself from Yuanshi Tianzun, this was Zhou Bai's strategy to avoid many unnecessary troubles. In the city now, only Xuan Nu and Jiaojiao know that Zhou Bai is Yuanshi Tianzun. After Zhou Bai's explanation, Zuo Dao had some understanding of the Yan Pressure acceleration cultivation effect but still found it incredible. 'Can there really be such a Divine Skill of cultivating with appearance?' Zuo Dao couldn't help but have a disrespectful thought: 'Just how much did Yuanshi Tianzun love cultivating with beautiful people, to have created such a method.' In his heart, he felt this Yuanshi Tianzun seemed a bit unreliable. Zhou Bai continued: "As the saintess of the Primordial Sect, Xuan Nu is the Preacher of Yuanshi Tianzun, also the pinnacle of Yan Pressure. Just staying by her side will accelerate your cultivation speed to an unparalleled level." As he spoke, Zhou Bai took out a seed of madness: "Zuo Dao, this is the Longevity Dao Fruit, you'll understand once you consume it." Zuo Dao took the completely black, constantly wriggling and seemingly alive madness seed, with a hint of hesitation on his face. Zhou Bai reassured him: "Don't worry Zuo Dao, I've been consuming this for two years, constantly testing to confirm its safety before I started promoting it on a large scale." Xia Li also urged beside him: "Hurry up and consume it. It really works. When I'm beside Xuan Nu, my efficiency increased more than tenfold."
