"Wow! How spectacular!" A gasp of amazement erupted outside the Bookstore as soon as the projected image appeared, and everyone's face showed shock.

From their perspective, the projection showed a sky, with their viewpoint above the clouds, rapidly descending.

The entire projection was dominated by a vast sea of clouds, and as they descended, the earth gradually appeared before their eyes.

The undulating mountains wind and twist, surrounded by white clouds.

As the speed increases, the flowers, trees, flowing water, waterfalls, birds, Bug Buzz, and insects below become visible and audible.

But... there wasn't a single person in the vast scene.

"Ah..."

Just as everyone was looking on with confusion, a shout suddenly came from the projection.

Immediately afterwards, a figure rapidly descending appeared in the projection.

"That's that Mad Scholar!" A cultivator outside the Bookstore instantly recognized Liu Changsheng's appearance and pointed at the projection, shouting.

Liu Changsheng was descending at high speed, his face contorted and his hair disheveled. It was truly remarkable that this man could recognize Liu Changsheng so quickly.

"What is he doing?" a fellow cultivator asked curiously.

Besides his distorted face and disheveled hair, Liu Changsheng's posture was also incorrect. His head was down and his feet were up, and his shoes seemed to have slipped off during the descent, leaving him only in a pair of white socks, which he was kicking rhythmically.

In the normal posture of cultivators descending from the sky, everyone's head is up and feet are down, which is completely opposite to Liu Changsheng.

Before everyone could think further, Liu Changsheng had already made close contact with the ground.

Ah~~!

"Bang!"

"..."

A cloud of dust erupted, plunging the entire projection into darkness.

After a long while, everyone regained their senses and looked around. They found that a large crater had been dug into the ground, and Liu Changsheng was lying inside it. His limbs twitched occasionally, proving that he was still alive.

"It seems like every time this Mad Scholar enters a world in a book, his luck isn't very good?" a cultivator couldn't help but remark upon seeing this scene.

"Yeah! I remember the first time I entered the world of Pokémon, I was kicked into a river by a cat, and the second time I was banished to an island. And now... it really seems pretty miserable." Another cultivator Analytic carefully, then shook his head and sighed.

"Speaking of which, this Mad Scholar is quite pitiful. Others become famous because of their strength, but he becomes famous because of bad luck..." a cultivator said with a smile.

"Pooh!"

At that moment, a sound came from the projector, and everyone stopped discussing and turned their attention back to the projector.

Liu Changsheng struggled to climb out of the pit, plopped down on the ground, and kept spitting out dirt to the side.

"Didn't they say there were no restrictions on cultivation level? Why can't I use Spiritual Power!" Liu Changsheng spat out the mud in his mouth, looking aggrieved, and shouted at the sky.

He was born in an awkward place, directly in the heavens, and before he could even react, he was plummeting downwards; when he finally came to his senses, he discovered that his Spiritual Power had been sealed again!

Then Liu Changsheng was in an awkward situation, falling straight down. If he hadn't felt a force protecting him at the last moment, he might have died from the fall.

Above the clouds, Ma Feifei lay on top of Liu Changsheng, unable to resist asking the system for the reason.

"When the world within the book opens, there will be a one-minute protection mechanism during which everyone will be restricted by Spiritual Power seal. This restriction will be lifted after one minute. Under this protection mechanism, readers who enter the world within the book will be invincible."

The meaning of this sentence is easy to understand. Using an online game as an analogy, Liu Changsheng is like a player who has just been resurrected. He has a protective mechanism of invincibility during the resurrection period. Once the protection time is over, the invincibility will be gone.

Of course, compared to the mechanisms in online games, the system's mechanisms are somewhat different. At least during the protection period, the protected person will also have their cultivation level restricted, just like an ordinary person.

Liu Changsheng was born in the sky, and without the support of Spiritual Power, he was unable to fly. As a result, he ended up in the state that everyone just saw.

Seeing this, Ma Feifei couldn't help but sigh and said, "Who told you to have such bad luck? Of all the places you could have been born, you had to be in the sky."

Liu Changsheng below seemed to sense that the seal within his body had been broken, and immediately unleashed a powerful aura, instantly blasting away the mud on his body.

"Whoosh~"

A black robe appeared from the spatial bag. With two 'whoosh' sounds, Liu Changsheng had changed into a clean robe, his hair flowing smoothly down his back. He looked dignified and imposing, a far cry from his previous unlucky appearance.

"So handsome!" A female practitioner outside the Bookstore saw this scene and became infatuated.

"He's so manly and strong; he's exactly my type," another female cultivator said with admiration.

"I remember you said you liked the shop owner, right? How come it's Liu Changsheng now?" A male cultivator who knew him couldn't help but ask.

The female cultivator rolled her eyes and said, "The shopkeeper is destined to live a lonely life. My liking her is useless; let's be more practical."

Upon hearing this, the male cultivator agreed, saying, "You're right."

The female cultivator glanced at the Bookstore subconsciously and sighed, "The shop owner is good in every way, except he's not lustful. What a pity."

"..."

If Ma Feifei heard this, he might really shout: I'm not convinced!

Not a womanizer? If I'm not a womanizer, look at all the female friends I have around me, Ma Feifei!

Starting with a Bookstore, three women in five chapters—interested?

However, Ma Feifei didn't have time for such nonsense. At this moment, he stood Zhengyi above the clouds, ready to make a move at any moment.

The reason for the intervention was not because Liu Changsheng fouled, but because...

"Who dares to run wild on my Old Sun's turf!"

This resounding line was accompanied by a figure clad in golden armor, wearing a golden crown, and walking on cloud-patterned shoes, wielding Golden Cudgel as he struck at Liu Changsheng.

Sun Wukong, the God of War!

This is Emei Mountain from the story of "The Lotus Lantern," the place where Sun Wukong lived in seclusion after becoming a Buddha.

There's no need to elaborate on how strong Sun Wukong is; what Ma Feifei is worried about is that Sun Wukong could kill Liu Changsheng with a single blow, which would be truly distressing.

Although the system has not implemented any measures to protect outsiders, as the owner of the Mysterious Bookstore, Ma Feifei still hopes that everyone can complete this mission smoothly and safely. Therefore, he will still choose to take action when the situation is reasonable, just like now.

Just as Liu Changsheng finished changing his clothes, he suddenly felt a powerful aura coming from the side, followed by a monkey wearing golden armor and a golden crown...

Yes, it was a monkey waving a stick at him, saying some Power Trip things.

"Hmph! They're really courting death."
