Chapter 518 Taiping Dao
In the center of the torn apart continent, in a remote town somewhere in the Five Finger Depression.
This is the trace left behind when the Sun Star Lord fought with a powerful master in anger.
The huge five-finger print was deeply imprinted in the depths of the earth, destroying all the nearby mountains and forests, leaving only a huge sunken basin.
Even after two hundred years, there is still no sign of vegetation growing here.
However, it is precisely because of the traces left by the Sun Star God that this place has become the place with the most "fire energy" remaining.
By refining the ore in this area, ordinary people can obtain a large amount of "fire energy" to improve their average living standards.
Of course, due to the particularity of this area, it has become a gathering place for many rebels and reformers who are still trying to resist the rule of the fairy mountains and islands.
Especially those mortals who knew about the war at the end of the law two hundred years ago, they were always thinking about pulling the fairy mountain above their heads down from the altar.
Bai Shasheng, who is known as a "skillful craftsman", is one of them.
Bai Shasheng’s original name was not Bai Shasheng. No one knows what his original name was.
The only thing that is certain is that Bai Shasheng was born into a mortal family.
After his birth, his parents were taken away by practitioners from the Immortal Mountain because they showed outstanding talents.
On the contrary, Bai Shasheng, who had no talent for cultivation and whose physique was not outstanding, was left in the lower world as expected.
Abandoning one's own children in order to become a cultivator is not something difficult to understand in the world of gods.
After all, as long as one can become a practitioner, it doesn’t matter how many children one has.
What's more, in this ruined civilization, the mortality rate of a young child can reach over 70 percent.
In other words, even if Bai Shasheng's parents decided to raise him themselves, there was a 70% chance that he would die before adulthood.
After weighing the two options, it became natural for Bai Shasheng's parents to abandon him and go to the fairy mountain.
Of course, this is taken for granted from a purely profit perspective.
From Bai Shasheng's perspective, he will never forgive those parents who abandoned him, nor those practitioners who took his parents away.
In today's era, Bai Shasheng's difficult childhood cannot be described in words.
Cheating, scamming, stealing, robbing...
The name "Bai Shasheng" appeared in this process and gradually replaced his real name.
He has a perverse and vicious personality, and at such a young age he has a terrifying murderous intent...
Even after he became an adult, Bai Shasheng always looked like he wanted to keep strangers away.
However, few people know that the reason why Bai Shasheng was able to survive until now is because he joined a secret organization a long time ago and became one of the best logistics technicians in that organization.
Yes, in this era when civilization is almost overturned, there is still a complete secret organization.
This secret organization not only has a complete structure, but also has powerful means. It seems that they have members everywhere.
Even Bai Shasheng, an internal member, was not sure what his organization was doing.
Bai Shasheng only knew that those outsiders who knew about the organization called their organization "Taiping Dao".

"Are you still reading those books?"
In the secret base of Taiping Dao, Yan Xi saw at a glance the young man who was carefully reading the book in his hand.
With the help of the faint light of the talisman fire, Bai Shasheng stared at every word in the book, stopping from time to time to think carefully.
"If you really like knowledge that much, ask the Yellow Turban Warrior to take you to Pulau Island someday. There is a formation there that can help you get 'initiation'."
Gently raising his eyelids, Bai Shasheng just spoke in a low voice with an indifferent expression.
“The knowledge gained through initiation will always belong to others. Only what you learn and understand yourself is truly unique.”
While talking, Bai Shasheng did not forget to continue flipping through the book in his hand.
It was during this brief moment when the other person was flipping through the book that Yan Xi saw the title of the book - "On Contradiction".
"Are these the new books that His Holiness sent down?"
Raising his eyebrows in surprise, Yan Xi didn't expect that what Bai Shasheng was reading today was not the craftsman book handed down from the previous era.
"Can you understand it?"
"Except for a few that involve practice, the rest of the theoretical books are very difficult!"
Yan Xi did not doubt the authenticity of the contents of those books. He just thought that if even he could not understand something, how could a mere mortal craftsman really understand it? "So this is why I am just an ordinary person, but my status is higher than yours."
Slowly closing the book, Bai Shasheng said this.
“This book talks about the nature of the rules that govern the world and a way of understanding the world.”
"If I can understand the contents, perhaps even a mortal like me who has no qualifications can have power comparable to yours."
Bai Shasheng's tone was calm and composed, which made Yan Xi stunned.
Yan Xi has known Bai Shasheng for a long time, and she is very aware of his stubborn character.
Since the other party said so, it means that he has indeed understood the new books that the Venerable has distributed.
"It's such a pity. You're so smart..."
Staring at Bai Shasheng's young face with regret.
Yan Xi felt that if the other party had any qualifications as a cultivator, he would definitely be one of the most outstanding cultivators of this era.
“Not a pity at all.”
Glancing at Yan Xi calmly, Bai Shasheng opened his mouth to correct her.
"If I really had the qualifications to practice, we wouldn't have met, and I wouldn't have joined your organization."
"The Venerable needs the hatred in my heart to rebel against the Immortal Mountains and Islands, and I also need His 'change' to prove my worth."
Gently stroking the "On Contradiction" in his hand, a hint of thought flashed in Bai Shasheng's eyes.
"Actually...sometimes you don't need to push yourself so hard."
Walking slowly to Bai Shasheng, Yan Xiru stroked his forehead as he had done in the past, trying to smooth out his frown.
"I'm different from you. I have to prove my worth to survive."
Bai Shasheng did not slap Yan Xi's hand away, and his tone remained calm.
Since I am in an organization full of hatred, I must hate the fairy mountain and the archipelago more than anyone else.
"You didn't come to me this time to talk to me about this, did you?"
