Divine Level Witch Doctor

After a brief silence, the Cultivator Forum completely erupted.

Many people were posting in the General Chat section, asking what on earth had happened. Even the forum’s background page had been changed—something that had never occurred before!

All sorts of speculation appeared one after another, and the scene descended into utter chaos.

”What’s going on? The forum hasn’t been hacked, has it?”

”Aren’t these the addresses that ’Small Witch Meets Big Witch’ just randomly posted? Why were they turned into the forum background?”

”Could it be that the Ant Thieves’ addresses posted by Small Witch Meets Big Witch are all real?”

A small number of people who had the moderators’ contact information immediately made phone calls.

Shan Han was one of them. She had once helped Sun Lei refine Elixirs and had kept his phone number.

The two were quite close, so once the call connected, Shan Han skipped the pleasantries and got straight to the point. ”Old Sun, what on earth are you guys playing at today? I saw you condemning Small Witch Meets Big Witch just a while ago. How come in the blink of an eye, you’ve featured and stickied his post, and even changed the forum’s background to those addresses from the thread?”

”Sigh, don’t even get me started. I tried to call someone out and ended up getting completely owned again!” Sun Lei said with a bitter smile. He recounted what had just happened to Shan Han and concluded, ”Based on our deductions, this ’Small Witch Meets Big Witch’ is definitely a Great God from the Witch and Priest School! At least in the field of Divination, his abilities are incredibly powerful! The addresses he provided are most likely real. That’s why we’re doing all this—to let more people see them, so they can form parties and go make trouble for the Ant Thieves!”

Shan Han clicked her tongue in amazement. ”I never would have thought that in today’s Witch and Priest School, there’d be a hidden Great God so skilled in Divination!”

”I didn’t either,” Sun Lei said with a sigh. ”If I ever run into something like this again, I’m definitely not going to be the first one to charge in. Damn it, I keep getting owned by these Great Gods. My heart is just so weary!”

Shan Han couldn’t hold it in and burst out laughing at his words.

Similar conversations were taking place with the other moderators.

In just a few short minutes, each of the moderators had received several calls of inquiry. Finally, the vice-admin of the Cultivator Forum posted an explanation thread, pinning it to the top so everyone could see it and understand what all the changes were about.

After reading the explanation, the Cultivators on the forum went into an uproar.

”Holy crap, the Ant Thieves’ addresses that Small Witch Meets Big Witch exposed are actually real?!”

”I can’t believe there are remnants of the Ant Thieves right here in our great Jinling City! Any Fellow Daoists nearby want to form a party and go wipe out these cancers of the Cultivation Realm?”

”Count me in for the party! I specialize in the Martial Dao and also use Talismans. I can tank and use Chaining!”

”I follow the Incense Route. My combat power isn’t great, but I can cast spells to give you guys buffs. Looking for a team to take me!”

In an instant, posts about forming parties popped up like bamboo shoots after a spring rain. Any outsider who saw it would probably suspect they’d landed on the wrong site, thinking it was some gaming forum where a bunch of enthusiasts were planning their next raid.

This frenzy reached its peak when the admin of the Cultivator Forum posted a new thread.

The admin’s post was very simple and to the point: ”I’ve already arrived at one of the addresses with my team. We’ve really found members of the Ant Thieves. No more talk, I’m leading my team to take them on!”

The post also included a photo: a person’s bare back, with an ant tattoo right in the center!

After seeing this post, no one doubted the authenticity of the dozen or so addresses Zhao Yuan had published, and more and more people began forming parties to attack the Ant Thieves.

This made it clear that the Ant Thieves, who would stop at nothing for their Cultivation, were truly like rats in the street in the Cultivation Realm: a public enemy that everyone wanted to crush.

They hadn’t been hunted before only because no one knew where the rats were. Now that they knew, they weren’t just going to fight—they were going to be ruthless.

In fact, the Ant Thieves also had people lying in wait on the Cultivator Forum. On one hand, their goal was to swindle and steal more Cultivation Techniques and Talismanic Magic from the other forum members. On the other hand, they used brainwashing tactics similar to a pyramid scheme to recruit Cultivators from the forum as peripheral members.

With the Cultivator Forum causing such a huge commotion, how could the Ant Thieves’ spies lurking there possibly not know about it?

They immediately reported the matter to their superiors, and the entire Ant Thieves leadership was left completely dumbfounded.

’What the FUCK is going on? I’ve got my pants off and I’m ready for bed, and now you’re telling me we’ve been exposed and have to move? Right now?’

At first, the Ant Thieves’ leadership thought their subordinates were joking. But when they saw the screenshots of the addresses, they were stunned. Then, hearing that people across the Cultivation Realm were clamoring to form parties to ”farm” them like raid bosses, their expressions changed drastically, and they immediately began to evacuate.

Are you kidding? They might have been strong, but not strong enough to single-handedly take on a huge mob of Cultivators!

While fleeing in a panic, the Ant Thieves’ leaders didn’t forget to issue an order through gritted teeth: ”Investigate! You must find out who leaked the headquarters’ addresses and our locations! Once you find them, kill on sight!”

For many Cultivators, this was destined to be a sleepless night.

Meanwhile, Zhao Yuan, the architect of this whole affair, quietly slipped out of the internet cafe. In a deserted corner, he took off the Human Skin Cloak, hailed a car, and headed for the hotel the Bone Woman had booked.

The Bone Woman was very clever. Knowing that it would be inappropriate for her to stay in the same room as Zhao Yuan now that she had her human skin, she had booked two adjacent rooms.

When Zhao Yuan returned, she was standing at the door to welcome him. ”Master, I’m right next door. If you need anything, just say the word, and I’ll be here at once.”

Zhao Yuan nodded. ”There shouldn’t be anything else. You can go focus on your Cultivation.”

The White Cat, carrying the two Little Dang Kangs in its mouth, emerged from the Bone Woman’s room and followed Zhao Yuan into his.

Whenever Zhao Yuan was around, the White Cat loved to stick close to him.

Lighting a stick of Soul-Stabilizing Incense, Zhao Yuan began to practice the Creation Technique. After completing one cycle, he washed up and lay down in bed. He then activated the Concentration Technique and began to study the contents of *Internal Medicine of Traditional Chinese Medicine*.

The night passed uneventfully.

Zhao Yuan woke up early the next day. He first went to the pharmaceutical factory and spent the entire morning gathering enough raw materials for a month’s production. Then he returned to school and went to the Hundred Herbs Garden to collect herbs according to the list Hao Li had sent him the previous night.

Although the herbs in the Hundred Herbs Garden couldn’t compare to those from a professional cultivation base, after such a long time under his care, they were now on par with wild herbs that were decades old!

Director Ma of the Traditional Chinese Medicine department had seen this transformation with his own eyes and was inwardly astonished. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been constantly mulling over the idea of having Zhao Yuan teach a course on the art of cultivating medicinal herbs.
