Douluo Continent: Reincarnated as the Rock King Emperor, Wandering the Mortal World

Chapter 139: Paimon, Baimon?

Upon returning to Tiandou City, Zhongli did not hear the translation of the Analects.

It remains unclear what Du Bafang and his three thousand disciples actually comprehended.

"Benevolence, righteousness, morality, and virtue!"

"Disciples, who can explain the meaning of the words 'Sect Master'?"

Du Bafang stood on the stage, speaking to the crowd with boundless pride.

The people below were all burly, even the female soul masters were exceptionally robust.

The description of him as having a broad back and a strong waist is not an exaggeration at all.

A strong physique is one of the key factors for the second awakening of a martial spirit, so it is quite normal for everyone to have such a physique.

"Reporting to the Sect Master, I understand!"

At this moment, a young man with a refined appearance, somewhat handsome features, and an incredibly strong physique spoke loudly.

This scene felt somewhat out of place.

Fortunately, there were quite a few people like him around, so he didn't seem too out of place.

Everything else in your body can be toughened up, except for your face, which is extremely difficult to train!

He has delicate features, but his back is hunched and his waist is broad, which is perfectly normal.

Upon hearing this, Du Bafang replied without hesitation, "Alright, you do it!"

Without any hesitation, the young man spun and leaped to the front of the crowd, pointed to the first character, and said, "Brothers and sisters, look at this character '仁' (ren, benevolence)!"

The disciples of the Body Sect are all brothers, but of course there are also female Soul Masters, who are sisters.

Although they are from different fathers and mothers, their relationship is closer than that of many biological brothers and sisters.

"Left person, right two, that means it's a technique for splitting a person in two!"

Everyone nodded in agreement, feeling that it made a lot of sense.

The sect leader's words definitely have a deeper meaning, not just the most superficial one.

Benevolence?

Can we be merciful to our enemies?

Obviously, that's impossible!

As a Martial God Douluo with unparalleled martial arts skills, how could he possibly be merciful?

As the saying goes: "Learning without thinking is futile; thinking without learning is dangerous!"

If you learn the martial arts of the sect leader but not his philosophy, you will become confused and go crazy!

If you learn the sect leader's philosophy but not his martial arts, you'll get beaten to death!

"Let's look at this righteousness again..."

The young man continued explaining, speaking at length and eloquently.

After a long pause, the young man finally stopped speaking.

"Good, very good!"

"Your understanding is spot on!"

After praising the disciple, Du Bafang seemed to remember something and continued, "Now, all of you, go and cultivate this virtue!"

"I must develop my back muscles into the shape of the Chinese character '德' (de)!"

"Virtue is the foundation. Only with a strong physique can we have an absolute advantage, whether absorbing spirit rings or fighting others!"

"yes!"

No one dared to refute this statement. "Virtue" is indeed the foundation. The reason why the original Soul Master is so powerful is precisely because of this "virtue"!

Once the body has been cultivated to the shape of the character "德" (virtue), it will naturally be able to absorb more soul power...

Even if a martial soul is the brain itself, a soul master still needs to cultivate their back into the shape of the character "德" (virtue).

Don't assume that just because your martial spirit is your brain, your physique is weak!

It's important to understand that as the brain develops, the energy required and consumed by the body becomes enormous!

If one's physique is not strong, one simply cannot withstand such powerful "mental strength".

The entire Body Sect resumed operation, purchasing a large amount of cultivation resources. High-intensity cultivation meant high consumption, requiring a large amount of food supplies.

Furthermore, it cannot be ordinary meat!

Soul beast meat is the best, followed by ordinary meat.

Soul beast meat contains a large amount of soul power and special substances. Ordinary people cannot digest it, and eating even a little too much will easily cause them to explode and die.

Processed soul beast meat is harmless to ordinary soul masters, but the refining process is long, so they cannot eat too much.

However, most Soul Masters don't have this problem at all. As long as the Soul Beast isn't too overpowered, there's only one word: eat!

With such a strong physique, there's no fear of not being able to digest it.

Ninety percent of the money earned by the Body Sect is spent on food.

Especially for special ingredients, the price will be even higher.

Special foods can also be beneficial to the body.

For example, whale glue, etc.

Three thousand "gluttons," and they have to eat only soul beast meat. The daily consumption is something that ordinary forces simply cannot afford...

Tian Dou City, Zhongli Mansion.

After returning from the Body Sect, Zhongli had a vague feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

After the disciples of the Body Sect studied the Analects, the atmosphere of the sect became more positive and uplifting.

This is a good thing.

But Zhongli still felt that something was wrong...

Can they really understand those classical Chinese texts?

Thinking of Du Bafang's confident demeanor, Zhong Li ultimately chose to believe him.

"Zhongli, you came back so early this morning. Did you go out to bring me breakfast?"

Paimon rubbed his eyes, then said with an expectant look.

For Paimon, eating is everything.

Upon hearing this, Zhongli sized up Paimon.

With his keen eye, he could easily notice that Paimon had grown a little bit when he first arrived in Douluo Continent.

For most people, spending so much time together makes it difficult to notice changes in each other.

But Zhongli was different; his memory didn't fade so quickly.

"Yes, I bought you a basket of steamed buns."

With a casual wave of his hand, a steaming basket of buns appeared on the table.

"Thank you, Zhongli!"

"It's so kind of you!"

To be honest, traveling with travelers meant sometimes being hungry and sometimes not, occasionally going three days without eating nine meals.

Although they often went out without money while following Zhongli, they were never hungry!

Zhong Li looked at Paimon, who was eating a steamed bun, stroked his chin, and fell into deep thought.

How can such a tiny Paimon eat so much food? Where does it all go?

"Zhongli, would you like two?"

Seeing that Zhongli was looking at her, Paimon felt a little embarrassed. She had been so focused on eating that she had completely forgotten about Zhongli, the "runaway".

She held a bun in each hand, raising them as if to hand them to Zhongli.

"No need, I've already eaten."

"Hehe, I'll eat them all!"

Upon hearing Zhongli say that he had already eaten, Paimon smiled, looking very happy, and appeared to be a child weighing forty or fifty pounds.

Zhongli glanced at Paimon, who was still eating, picked up his teacup, took a sip, and fell into deep thought again.

There are four maintainers of the principles of Heaven. First of all, we can be certain of one thing: they are all shadows of the principles of Heaven.

The true reason is also a woman with long white hair!

A golden crown on her head, long white hair...

In addition, based on his memories from his previous life, Paimon can also be called Baimon, a name derived from Baimon, the "King of Archangels," one of the seventy-two demonic pillars.

The other person also wore a golden crown, and although their appearance was quite different from Paimon's, they should have some connection.

According to the theory of isotopes, Paimon could not possibly be so "ordinary".

Well, no matter how you look at Paimon now, she seems extraordinary.

"Little one, what secret are you hiding?"

Zhongli thought to himself, but his expression remained unchanged.

Even with his strength, he couldn't sense any power from Paimon; either Paimon was Paimon, or Paimon was Paimon.

Either her strength is beyond his imagination.

Shaking his head, Zhong Li regained his composure and stopped thinking about it.

Regardless of whether Paimon is hiding any power or not, isn't she still herself?
