Why Didn't You Say Sooner?

Sparse applause rang out from the audience. Ansen turned his head and saw that Mu Hongyuan had disappeared from his side, leaving only a faint fragrance behind. He wondered what Mu Hongyuan had gone to do.

Ansen searched for a while but couldn't find anyone, so he slowly took out paper and pen.

Mu Hongyuan entered through the Five Elements Sect's internal "Bao Mi Agreement," while Ansen joined normally, but avoided organ torsion through special means. This is the women's section, and there is a men's section next door.

"The third Fairy Tale..."

The second Fairy Tale is in progress and has not yet reached its anchored ending, but that does not prevent Ansen from writing the third Fairy Tale, and the backlash from the second Fairy Tale is not strong.

"Got it."

Ansen put down his pen. He now had a brilliant idea.

Love is blind, but Ansen has more than just eyes.

He knew that Mu Hongyuan was Survivor, and from a Survival World. Ansen was only with her because he was of use to her.

Ansen was able to love unconditionally while simultaneously contemplating the meaning of that love and the nature of their relationship.

This is not contradictory.

"Leave yourself a way out, and improve your strength."

The lecture lasted for about half an hour. While the Daoist Hehuan was still on stage explaining the Yin-Yang Hehuan Secret Art and the quick-learning formula, Ansen completed the ending of the third Fairy Tale.

In the ending, there's a line that reads, "I won't die until I'm fucked... Ansen won't die!"

Ansen, who had never used such exaggerated language to end Fairy Tale, was somewhat uneasy as he put down the last stroke.

After all, this is a bit inappropriate for children and doesn't meet the standards of Fairy Tale. Even if it works, the backlash could be quite severe.

"This way, at least I've ensured my survival."

"Ansen!"

Ansen looked up when his name was called from the stage.

The Daoist Hehuan on the platform asked:

"Have you memorized the quick-learning formula for the third volume of the Yin-Yang Hehuan Secret Art that I just explained?"

"Remember this: pinching will cause tenosynovitis, stepping on it will cause rhabdomyolysis..."

About half an hour later, Ansen left the Daoist Hehuan's lecture and met up with Mu Hongyuan, who had suddenly appeared, and headed to Qi Awakening Platform, which was located hundreds of kilometers away from the training base.

Most of the applicants were actually promising young disciples from various immortal clans or sects who had successfully awakened their spiritual power. These past few days, they had been busy with the transformation of their origins, so Mu Hongyuan and An Sen, who came to take advantage of the situation, were qualified to obtain the spiritual awakening quota.

"How's the second Fairy Tale going?" Mu Hongyuan was still more concerned about the reunion.

"We're less than halfway there. The real ending might take three or even four days to arrive... We'll be transported to Dao Lord's dojo tomorrow, and we'll most likely encounter them there," Ansen said after closing his eyes and sensing for a moment.

"Three or four days... We don't have that much time. Each era doesn't last long. We need other methods to manage our World Influence. Let's begin after the Qi Awakening Ritual."

"I have no problem." Ansen replied without complaint, as always.

Mu Hongyuan's gaze fell on the furnace cauldrons on the field, who were also offering tributes to the Zixiao Kingdom.

Because of the reversal, there are now 1,500 male and 1,500 female furnace cauldrons after the reversal. At that time, several surrounding countries and Immortal Sects will compete for them, and in the end, about 300 people from each will enter.

They are all candidates at the moment, but if they are selected, they will immediately become a full-fledged cadre. Although they are likely to die, there is still a small chance that they will be noticed by the Dao Lord and their immortal path will advance by leaps and bounds.

If these people are captured, will they be able to influence the Dao Lord in the Daoist temple, and consequently affect the entire world?

The highest level of this world is divided by Golden Core Dao Lords; influencing Golden Core Dao Lord means influencing the world.

"By the way, since you're on the Contract side, can you sign Contracts with these guys or something?"

Mu Hongyuan suddenly remembered Father Tali Lang; if he were on the Contract side of the struggle for survival, he probably would have fared even better.

"No, Miss Han, our focus on the Contract partner is on the Contract partner, similar to Beast Taming, not Contract... In short, I have a bunch of partners, rather than controlling others through Contracts." Ansen was somewhat speechless.

"Alright, get on the bus."

Accompanied by a Foundation Establishment cultivator, the two entered an airship.

The airship was small, no more than thirty feet long. Its hull was light blue, and its surface was engraved with windproof runes. The Spiritual Light of the runes was still faintly shining in the morning light.

Airships are considered vehicles for Foundation Establishment cultivators and are quite luxurious. Most Foundation Establishment cultivators do not own airships; they rely on their Immortal Sects to purchase one, and the Foundation Establishment only have the right to use it for 24 hours.

As for the Magic Vessel, each one costs at least hundreds of millions of Spirit Stones to build and takes at least twenty years to manufacture. They are the personal vehicles of Violet Palace Adept, and even a speck of dust falling from them would be enough to Qi Refining the ancestors of Qi Refining cultivators' graves emitting auspicious smoke. Moreover, they are extremely fast and can fly throughout the entire country.

Mu Hongyuan and Ansen were able to traverse half of the Zixiao Kingdom in half a day thanks to the help of Magic Vessel belonging to one of the Violet Palace of the Five Elements Sect.

Mu Hongyuan slowly resumed his cultivation, accumulating his Attributes to around 12. He then stopped to review local cultivation techniques, wanting to combine Qi to improve his cultivation plan and take advantage of the extraordinary environment.

Ansen, meanwhile, stood beside the airship, admiring the scenery and contemplating the meaning of life.

He loves to look at scenery and also thinks about what his life is like as a book, and how he is a supporting character in that book.

Therefore, his appearance should be accompanied by one of the few scenic descriptions in the book, as well as descriptions of beautiful women he has seen.

A gale swept the clouds past the side of the airship. Leaning on the railing, I looked down at the sea of clouds, which surged like cotton waves, layer upon layer, over the continuous green mountains.

The distant mountains are covered with ancient trees of varying shades, and streams flow like silver threads between the ravines. Scattered villages are reduced to tiny houses, and fields are laid out like watermelon stripes. The winding rivers are like jade belts wrapped around the earth.

Occasionally, a misty haze lingers around the mountainside, and a few Leyline peaks faintly glow with Spiritual Light. Birds, as small as dust, fly across the wilderness on the wind, taking in the vast expanse of heaven and earth. The mundane world and the spiritual beauty of the mountains and rivers are spread out together under the long sky.

Beyond that beautiful scenery lies Jade Terrace, nestled among the sacred mountains—our destination.

"So beautiful." Ansen murmured, mesmerized. "Such beautiful scenery can grow in a place with abundant Qi. I wish my Survival World was also a cultivation world."

Amidst this magnificent landscape, a discordant element emerged.

Two unknown airships suddenly emerged from the clouds on either side and collided violently!

"Bang--!"

The sound of metal tearing apart exploded in the air, like a thunderclap.

The armored cabin suddenly twisted and cracked, the energy inside the airship suddenly surged out of control, blinding white flames instantly tore through the clouds, and a deafening roar shook the surrounding clouds into a frenzy. Broken wooden components and Burn canvas, along with sparks, fell in all directions, and the shockwave of the exploding spiritual energy rippled outwards, with a gale swirling black smoke that filled the sky. Most of the hull disintegrated, and the burning wreckage fell downwards, trailing a fiery tail.

The two airships collided right above the Spirit Jade Platform, and a group of cultivators and corpses fell like rain.

Ansen turned to look at Mu Hongyuan:

"Two airships are conducting training exercises in mid-air ahead, giving birth to thirty-seven humans."

"That's a plane collision!" Mu Hongyuan couldn't hold back.

"Damn it, why didn't you say so earlier!"
