"The Calamity of Ten Thousand Races" is still quite useful.

[One entry equals ten entries, plus a free transformation function.]

[Truly Prismatic Myth.]

[It's just that it's stopped growing, which is giving you a bit of a headache.]

[But since the entry states that its effect increases with cultivation level, it certainly won't reach its limit so quickly; there must be something missing.]

[Shortly afterward, you arrived at the rendezvous point you had deduced, a ferry crossing called Herding Horse Ferry.]

[There's a fishing village nearby, inhabited entirely by Human Race. You've rented an old house there for the time being.]

[After autumn began, you would wander around the ferry crossing every night around midnight, looking to see if anyone was waiting for someone there.]

For over two months, not a single ghost was seen.

"Was my analysis of the poem wrong?"

[You can't help but start to doubt yourself.]

That very night, you saw a beautiful figure appear on the ferry crossing.

[She held a purple sword in her hand, and had a cascade of black hair that reached her heels. Her purple dress accentuated her graceful figure.]

["This person isn't..."]

[Ji Wuqing!]

That's right!

[That's her!]

[You've seen her twice in simulations, and her appearance left a very deep impression on you.]

You conceal your presence and begin to observe her, trying to determine whether she is waiting for someone or simply passing through.

[You try to sense her aura to confirm her cultivation level, but find that you can't sense it at all.]

[Ji Wuqing is certainly no ordinary person; she possesses the Great Strength to traverse between the realms of illusion and reality, and her cultivation is unfathomable.]

[The only reason you can't sense her cultivation level is because her cultivation is too high, or her concealment techniques are too strong, rendering your ability to Qi Sensing her completely useless.]

"I wonder which of our families those big monkeys will choose to go to the Void Realm this time? I hope they choose our Ji Family, then I'll ask Father to arrange it for me! The Void Realm... how interesting!"

[Ji Wuqing was talking to herself.]

"Going to the Void Realm? Right, Ji Wuqing appeared in the Human World when I was eighty-nine years old. So she hasn't gone yet?"

You are exactly eighty-nine years old this year.

[In other words, according to the original timeline, Ji Wuqing will go to the Void Realm for the rest of this year?]

I wonder if she can bring anyone with her this time?

[After all these years of traveling around in the Real Realm, you're really starting to miss home.]

Just as you were lost in thought, you suddenly smelled a faint fragrance.

"It smells so good! What's that smell?"

[Turning your head, you see Ji Wuqing's amused smile.]

"Oh my god!"

You were startled, not realizing when she had appeared behind you.

"Feeling guilty now? Speak! What are you up to, staring at me like that!"

[Take a few steps back, clasp your hands in a gesture of respect.]

"I am merely waiting for someone here; I have no designs on you, young lady."

[Ji Wuqing stood with her sword in her arms, her long hair flowing in the evening breeze, like a fairy descending to earth.]

["No ulterior motives? What a pity! You're so handsome, and your cultivation is decent too. If you had any designs on me, I could have gotten married!"]

"Oh, this..."

[You never expected that the aloof and mysterious woman from the Real Realm you met in the Human World would be so different when you met her again in the Real Realm.]

"What? I am the eldest daughter of the current head of the Ji Family, am I not good enough for you?"

"Uh... I have someone I like."

"It's alright, let her be a concubine. Men have multiple wives and concubines, it's normal, I understand!"

"Girl, please stop joking."

[Ji Wuqing anything but heartless; seeing you speechless after her teasing, she burst into hearty laughter.]

"Alright, alright, let's get down to business. You said you were waiting for someone, and I'm waiting for someone too. Could it be that you're waiting for me?"

[If the location and time are correctly predicted.]

[The name of the contact person is probably correct as well.]

[This is Ji Wuqing. The person you're waiting for is called "Xiao Yue," which is clearly not her.]

"The person I'm waiting for is named ' Xiao Yue,' isn't that your name?"

"Yes, that's me! My name is Ji Xiaoyue!"

"Aren't you called Ji Wuqing?"

[You're a little confused. You look Ji Wuqing up and down, wondering if you've mistaken him for someone else. Isn't this Ji Wuqing?]

"You don't understand, do you?"

My parents named me Ji Xiaoyue. Tsk tsk tsk, listen to this name, how perfunctory!

It's probably just some random, silly name they made up when they were drunk one day.

I had no choice when I was a child, but I have to change now that I'm grown up!

I'm going to call myself Ji Wuqing!

This name sounds powerful, aloof, and cool! It screams "Master!"

[Your mind raced, and you used your inner energy to unleash the <Quantum Ghost Steps>, instantly teleporting to a distant location.]

"If you are indeed waiting for someone, we will meet again at the same time in three days!"

["Hey! Hey! Don't go! I really am the person you've been waiting for! I still have a secret code to tell you!"]

[You ignored what Ji Wuqing said next.]

You should verify whether what she said is true.

[If, as she says, she did have the former name Ji Xiaoyue, then surely people outside have heard of this.]

[Because the Ji Family is a very famous and powerful force.]

[When you displayed your might on Blaze Star, even the Sect Master the Heavenly Sha Sect suspected you were from the Ji Family or Jiang Family family.]

[It is evident that these two races are truly major powers within the Human Race on a cosmic scale.]

As the Ji Family, she would never remain unknown in the local area.

[You went to a nearby city and inquired about the Ji Family.]

[This Ji Wuqing really does have two names.]

[Her name used to be Ji Xiaoyue.]

[Later, after her cultivation broke through to the Heaven-Reaching Realm, she challenged many senior Ming Su on Vermilion Purple Star, earning a formidable reputation. Each time, she referred to herself as Ji Wuqing, not Ji Xiaoyue.]

"It seems the person I was supposed to meet might really be her..."

Three days later, you arrived at the Ancient Ferry again at midnight.

This time, Ji Wuqing was standing on a ship, which also carried many highly skilled Cultivator.

Seeing you approach, she stepped ashore and playfully uttered the secret code.

"What does this handsome young man carry in his purse?"

[You clasp your hands in a gesture of respect.]

"Half a boat of moonlight, half a boat of seagulls."

[Ji Wuqing straightened up, her posture upright, and looked directly at you.]

"Ji Wuqing, the First Hall of the Vermilion Purple Star Main Altar of the Kindling Society!"

[She stared at you after she finished speaking.]

[You know, she wants you to introduce yourself.]

[This underground organization has a very sophisticated network of personnel.]

[Making it up is useless; she can easily find out the truth by checking, so you must tell the truth.]

"I am not a member of the Kindling Society."

[You immediately sensed the murderous intent in Ji Wuqing's eyes.]

"Then how did you know the contact information?"
