The people in the collapsing iron gave the immortal ship a small shock from the Holy Lord.

Bai Zhi was both amused and exasperated. It was probably because she had disappeared on the train last time, and Fu Xuan had told the train crew about her situation. When she was chatting with Hei Ta on March 7th, she had also leaked the information.

Fortunately, this also gave her the basis for communicating with the Black Tower to obtain the artifact.

She didn't believe that her contribution of saving some people on the Black Tower space station would make the Black Tower part with its artifact.

Bai Zhi: [Sure, if I collect anything interesting, I can bring it to Miss Black Tower.]

Black Tower: [Great! Then I'll pick out a suitable artifact for you. There's a broken sword in the space station that I retrieved from the imaginary space. Although it's broken, the material is very sturdy.]

Black Tower: [What do you think of this strange object?]

Bai Zhi stroked her chin. "Broken sword," she thought, "it sounds a bit unreliable."

But never mind, let's give it a try first, at least it's a weapon.

With so much willpower, it's not impossible for the broken sword to be reforged and the knight to return.

Thinking of this, Bai Zhi sent a message: 【Of course, thank you very much, Miss Black Tower.】

Black Tower: [You're welcome. This is just a normal resource exchange.]

215 Old Zhu's Prayer

"Ouch... my head hurts so much."

In the consultation room, Bai Zhi shook her head.

"Did you dream of something bad again? Here, take some calming medicine, it'll make you feel better."

Bai Lu skillfully placed a pale yellow pill in front of Bai Zhi.

This situation has been going on for several days.

Of course, as this continued, the angelica root also looked brighter and brighter.

If we wait any longer, Angelica dahurica will probably turn into a human-shaped light bulb.

"It's alright... Master Bailu, do you remember Old Man Zhu and his wife Madam Ma who came here a few days ago?"

After saying that, Bai Zhi took the calming medicine from Bai Lu's hand and swallowed it in one gulp.

Bai Lu tilted her head and thought for a moment, "That old man Zhu, do you still remember him? His wife's illness was quite simple, and you even gave each of them a pill to reverse aging."

"What, you dreamed about them?"

Bai Zhi covered her head; the calming medicine was taking effect, slowly soothing her mind, which had been disturbed by countless prayers.

After calming down, Bai Zhi recalled what she had dreamed about and slowly began to recount it.

"Yes, I dreamt of Old Man Zhu. He looks much younger now, but that's not the point. The point is, in the dream, he was standing on a high platform, and there were so many people below him praying to me."

“He prayed that I could respond to him, as his son was seriously ill and on the verge of death, and he hoped that the miracle of the immortal would come again and heal his son.”

"It seems that old man Zhu has an unusual background."

"Maybe, but he can't come over, so how can I interfere with his affairs? What's the difference between him praying to me every day and constantly harassing me by phone?"

Bai Zhi said helplessly that perhaps the scene she saw in her dream was real. She understood the old man's feelings. After all, his loved one was about to die, so he would definitely try to seize every possible opportunity.

In this situation, even if they are fake gods or Buddhas, people probably wouldn't mind paying their respects.

Not to mention that he actually gave the other party a elixir of youth, so he was probably already regarded as a true immortal by the other party.

But she is not a Lawgiver of Consciousness; her consciousness cannot interfere with anything.

At the very least, we cannot interfere across world borders.

Now, she's just waiting for the delivery from the Black Tower space station to arrive.

We need to find something to hold her wishes quickly, otherwise, with so many wishes flowing endlessly, it will drive her crazy sooner or later.

"Why is this interstellar delivery so slow?"

Bai Zhi complained speechlessly, "In this interstellar age, if the distance is too far, they can't even deliver the next day."

"Ding dong~"

Bai Zhi's phone beeped with a notification, and she immediately unlocked it to check.

She hoped this was what she wanted to see.

[For users with phone numbers ending in 2333, your interstellar express delivery has arrived in Xianzhou. Since your location is restricted from delivery by the Mechanical Bird, please go to the following address to pick it up...]

"We've finally arrived!!"

Upon reading the message, Bai Zhi jumped up immediately. This annoying problem had been tormenting her for many days, and now it should be resolved.

"Master Bailu, please stay here and don't move. I'm going to get a package."

"Go ahead, go ahead, I'm also researching growth-accelerating drugs. That patient named Shinichi Kudo is in a real hurry."

Filled with excitement, Bai Zhi stepped out of the consultation room.

Meanwhile, in a distant world, a young man dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, who looked very young, was holding an incense stick and staring intently at the huge statue in front of him that was emitting a faint golden-red light.

"Your Majesty...you have been holding this incense stick here for quite some time now. Why don't you take a rest? After all, your health is of utmost importance."

The young man seemed not to hear him and continued to hold the incense stick firmly.

"Ugh...."

The eunuch beside him sighed softly, and the ministers below also looked helpless; this man had been here for a day and a night.

You said you wanted to express your sincerity to that Bai Zhi Zhen Xian and beg her to save the Crown Prince. You could have just done it yourself. Why did you have to drag us ministers along?

After a day and a night, even we old bones are almost melting.

We don't know if your son will survive, but we'll most likely be exhausted to death here.

But they still didn't dare to offer any advice.

In the past, they would have mostly quoted classical texts to express that these things were not actually that useful, and there would have been no need to waste the ministers and soldiers' precious time here.

But now they all know that immortals exist, at least, that Bai Zhi Zhen Xian truly exists.

The fact that their emperor and empress have both become young again is the best proof of this.

Not to mention, the statue of this Bai Zhi Zhen Xian is truly efficacious.

While it may not be able to cure serious illnesses, it certainly doesn't skimp on minor ailments.

In just a few months, his statues were all over the country.

No matter how poor a family is, even a beggar would try his best to make a nice statue of a deity to keep by his side.

After all, in this era, what caused people to die was not war, but all sorts of minor illnesses.

All of this has led to a surge of interest in seeking immortals and visiting Taoist masters in the Ming Dynasty. Many wealthy people are keen to wander around famous mountains and rivers, hoping to find traces of immortals.

Even if I don't want to be accepted as a disciple, I would still be willing to be given an elixir of immortality.

Even if all else fails, to receive a few words of guidance from an immortal would be something I could only dream of.

Time passed slowly, and the emperor standing on the high platform looked at the incense in his hand that was slowly burning out, a trace of weariness flashing in his eyes.

Even though he has now rejuvenated and become a teenager, at the peak of his energy, he still finds it difficult to maintain his youthful appearance for a day and a night.

But the thought of his son lying in the Eastern Palace, gravely ill and near death, filled him with heartache.

If it weren't for the light emanating from the statue of Bai Zhi Zhenxian, which barely kept him alive, his son would probably have perished long ago.

Even so, the imperial physicians told him that although the statue of Bai Zhi Zhen Xian was barely keeping the prince alive, the illness had penetrated deep into his bones, and the statue was probably powerless to help. As time went on, the condition would progress to the point where even the statue could not hold on any longer.

Until then....

The imperial physician stammered and didn't dare to say what he meant next, but everyone with a normal IQ knew what it implied.

"Immortal Baizhi, please grant my request. If you can heal my son... I am willing to give my life for it. I will also build you the largest and most luxurious temple, bigger and more magnificent than my palace!"

He raised his head, looked at the statue, and prayed.

Seemingly moved by his piety, the statue, radiating a soft light, seemed to change...

216 The Sword and Spells of the Flame King

"Your Majesty, look! The statue has changed!!"

The eunuch was the first to notice the situation and immediately screamed at the emperor.

"I have seen it, Immortal Baizhi, please respond to me! I, Zhu Yuanzhang, am willing to do anything!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was immediately invigorated, and the ministers and generals below also looked at the huge statue.

The statue, which had originally stood with its hands behind its back and looked ahead, was slowly changing. Its left hand began to move, and then golden-red light gathered there.

A massive, imposing red sword appeared in the statue's left hand.

Meanwhile, in the Pill Refining Department of the Immortal Ship, the radiance emanating from Bai Zhi was rapidly diminishing, and countless streams of willpower were surging towards the shattered fragments of the great sword.

"This sword...could it be Himeko's Godfall Sword??"

As he watched the greatsword being continuously repaired by the influx of willpower, those past memories resurfaced.

She remembered that Himeko's sword was indeed collected inside the Black Tower space station; someone had posted about this Easter egg when Star Iron launched.

However, this kind of information was not very important, and it was forgotten during the years that Xianzhou was in operation.

More importantly, the material of this sword seemed unable to bear all her willpower; after only one-third of it was inputted, the sword could no longer be infused with any more.

Bai Zhi shook her head helplessly. After learning that this was Ji Zi's Divine Fall Sword, she was not surprised by the result.

After all, this thing is just an Earth creation, probably made of Soul Steel. The strength of the material is far inferior to that of Star God creations like General Jingyuan's weapon.

After thinking for a moment, Bai Zhi reached out and gently stroked the Divine Meteor Sword, and a magnificent greatsword inlaid with four gems appeared on the spot.

Compared to the design of the Godfall Sword, the design of the Flame Blaze Greatsword is more in line with her aesthetic.

"We still need to find something else to carry our wishes, but... what should we use?"

Bai Zhi thought for a moment and then took out all her belongings.

One rare split gold coin, one immortal flying sword, several self-made talisman cards, and... a magnificent book.

"Huh, the Encyclopedia of Spells, I completely forgot about you."

Bai Zhi picked up the book, somewhat delighted, realizing she had completely forgotten about it.

It's because this thing is currently too weak, not as sharp or easy to use as the flying swords of the Immortal Ship, so it has been kept in a state of being shelved.

But this thing has the property of being indestructible, so it would be perfect as a tool to carry wishes.

"Then give it a try!"

Bai Zhi held the book in her right hand, and the light around her body gradually faded as she inputted the spellbook into it in a specific way.

As these wishes were channeled into the Encyclopedia of Spells, the Encyclopedia of Spells, which was originally a somewhat sinister red, transformed into a gold and red color scheme.

[Ding! The Encyclopedia of Spells has gained a Willpower bonus. When the Encyclopedia of Spells attacks, it will consume Willpower and deal additional damage based on the amount of Willpower consumed, as well as other variations. Please explore on your own.]

"If I had known, I wouldn't have gone to the Black Tower."

Bai Zhi patted her head. The perfect container of wish power was right beside her, how could she have forgotten? Now she owed someone a favor for nothing.

In another world, the statue of Bai Zhi continues to change.

Holding the Flame Blaze Greatsword in his left hand, he extended his right hand slightly, revealing a book emitting a faint golden glow, which then opened.

"Your Majesty, look quickly at the statue of the Immortal Baizhi!!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was thrilled as he watched the statue slowly change.

Not only was he excited, but so were the civil and military officials below, because when this change occurred, they suddenly sensed something wondrous.

As the civil official looked at the book in Bai Zhi's hand, many of his previous unresolved issues and incomprehensible points about the article and his thoughts suddenly became clear, as if he had undergone a baptism.

The generals, on the other hand, felt an indescribable surge of passion and impulse, as if the sword represented boundless bravery and martial prowess. They couldn't wait to rush out and fight the enemies to the death. At the same time, they also gained some understanding of military strategy.

"It has appeared! It has finally appeared! Immortal Baizhi, please heal my son!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was somewhat incoherent. He had been in despair, but now that the statue had changed like this, it must be that the Immortal Baizhi had heard his call.

That would prove that his son could be saved.
