A user with the ID "Withered Wood Daoist" posted the following message on the Dark Web forum "Hidden World".
"The centennial anniversary is approaching, the Ethereal Peak Teleport Gate will soon open. Fellow Daoists, would you be willing to join us?"
Posted one month ago.
There were 17 people who replied, and their IDs were all quite strange: Qingsongzi, Perfected Baishui, Chiyan Sanren...
Ling Yi flipped through the entries one by one, and cold sweat poured down his back.
On Blue Star, the Master Piaoyun is not the only cultivator.
Although their numbers are extremely small and their cultivation levels are very low, they do exist.
And they all knew about the Teleport Gate portal.
Fourth clue: The location of Tianyuan Star.
This was the part that shocked Ling Yi the most.
Fanbao found a paper published in 1963 in a forgotten academic paper database. The author was a deceased researcher from the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Paper title. "Archaeological Research on the Place Name ' Tianyuan '".
The paper points out that in the ancient minority languages of southwestern Ancient Country, the word " Tianyuan " means "the beginning of the sky" or "the source of all stars".
Even more bizarrely, the paper's appendix included a global list of place names.
In Sanskrit, the term "Tianyuan" corresponds to "Heaven" (celestial realm).
In Tibetan Buddhism, the corresponding term is " Sumeru Heaven ".
In Maya civilization, the corresponding term is "entrance to the underworld," which is in the opposite direction but has the same structure.
In the cuneiform script of Sumerian civilization, the corresponding term is "the land of purity".
In the Myth of all civilizations, there is a concept of a Heaven or Divine Domain.
Their original pronunciations all point to the same root word, "Tian-yuan".
Tianyuan.
[Host, would you like a report compiled for your reference?]
"I need one!"
[Report being compiled. Once completed, the host can open and read it by telepathy.]
A summary report appeared on Fanbao's interface, titled. "Report on Inferences Regarding the Current Nature of the World."
The core content of the report is as follows:
First, the world ( Blue Star ) is not an ordinary Parallel World, but a planet where the remnants of a cultivation civilization still exist.
Ten thousand years ago, due to unknown reasons, Spiritual Qi was depleted, high-level cultivators withdrew, and the descendants of low-level cultivators gradually became A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality, thus ending the lineage of immortal cultivation.
Secondly, Blue Star has a large number of caves and secret realms buried underground, but the Spiritual Qi is thin and difficult to activate.
The " The Ethereal Cave Abode " on the Ethereal Peak is the best-preserved one among them.
Although the Master Piaoyun knew about Fanbao Fanbao, he probably didn't expect it to be so powerful.
They completely exposed all the secrets of Drifting Cloud Taoist Temple.
Thirdly, every 100 years, the Teleport Array in the Ethereal Cave Abode will automatically activate once, opening Teleport Gate to the cultivation world " Tianyuan Star ".
Limited slots Teleport, limited to 9 people per session.
Fourth, a small number of cultivators still survive on Blue Star, the highest-ranking of whom is the Master Piaoyun on the Ethereal Peak, at the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining Pinnacle.
The remaining independent cultivators, ranging in cultivation level from Qi Refining Level 1 to 6, numbered approximately 30-50.
Finally, Tianyuan Star is a true world of cultivation, rich in Spiritual Qi, dotted with numerous sects, and teeming with powerful individuals.
For Ling Yi, Blue Star was clearly a beginner's village.
[The host's current strength is at the top level among A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality on Blue Star, but is equivalent to an ant in front of cultivators.]
Ling Yi rolled his eyes. Is the term "ant" really appropriate to describe your host?
[Host recommendation: Before the Teleport Gate opens, increase your strength at all costs.]
[Otherwise, so that after entering the great world of cultivation, one will have the power to deal with crises.]
[Finally, take Liu Manyun with you when you leave Blue Star. She is the heroine of Karmic Luck and our only source of Fanbao Points.]
Ling Yi closed the report, leaned back on the sofa, and remained silent for a long time.
The sky outside the window had already darkened.
The villa was so quiet that the only sound was the faint hum of the Computer case.
Ling Yi looked down at his hands.
" Fanbao," Ling Yi said slowly.
[exist.]
How many Fanbao Points do I have now?
[Current balance: 23 points.]
"What about the Emotion Points?"
[Current balance: 47,000 points.]
Ling Yi remained silent for three seconds.
"Exchange all Emotion Points for Fanbao Points."
[47,000 Emotion Points can be exchanged for 47 Fanbao Points. After the exchange, your Fanbao Points balance will be 70 points. Confirm exchange?]
"Confirm."
[Exchange complete. Current Fanbao Points: 70.]
Ling Yi opened the Fanbao Shop and browsed the items that he had once thought were "outrageously expensive."
[ Body Enhancement Pill ]: 40 points.
[Neural reaction speed × 5]: 35 points.
[ Immortal Cultivator Perception ]: 20 points.
[ Five Elements Shield ]: 30 points.
[ Sword Control Flight (Trial Version)]: 50 points.
[ Energy Affinity (Pseudo)]: 45 points.
None of them are cheap.
But Ling Yi now had only one thought—
purchase.
Buy them all.
No matter how many points it costs, no matter if it's worth it or not, as long as it makes me stronger, I'll buy it.
Without some powerful special move to protect himself, Ling Yi genuinely feels he can't sleep soundly.
But 70 points is far from enough.
He needs at least 150 points to assemble a decent cultivator's setup.
Currently, the only way to obtain Fanbao Points is through Liu Manyun.
Ling Yi stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the dark night sky outside.
In the distance, Dafeng City was brightly lit, bustling with traffic, a scene of prosperity.
But Ling Yi knew that beneath that glamorous facade lay a world he had never imagined before.
A world of cultivation.
A world where the strong prey on the Strong Digestion and strength reigns supreme.
And he was about to step into it.
"15 days."
Ling Yi muttered to himself.
"Only 15 days."
He turned and walked out of the study, down the stairs.
Liu Manyun has returned.
I was watching TV on the sofa in the living room when I heard footsteps and looked up.
Are you done with work?
"Um."
Ling Yi walked over and sat down next to her, his gaze falling on her neck.
The emerald Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin pulling a coffin rested quietly below her collarbone, emitting a barely perceptible, lustrous sheen.
Ling Yi reached out and gently touched the jade pendant.
This is the Master Piaoyun with the Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin pattern that the abbot of Liu Manyun.
Liu Manyun blushed slightly at Ling Yi's intimate gesture, but she did not dodge it.
This gave Ling Yi another wave of Emotion Points.
[A high concentration of Spiritual Qi has been detected. The jade pendant is slowly releasing Spiritual Qi, which is being absorbed by the wearer.]
Ling Yi withdrew his hand, secretly alarmed.
Liu Manyun's body was being modified by the jade pendant without her realizing it.
As expected of someone suspected to be the female lead, she's already got a cheat code.
" President Liu," Ling Yi said.
[ Liu Manyun's dissatisfaction and frustration were detected. Emotion Points +600!]
"Um?"
What's going on? Where did this emotion come from?
From now on, call me Manyun, or A-Yun!
"Ha?"
Isn't calling someone that a bit too ambiguous?
"What are you 'ha' about? Are you going to call me or not?" Liu Manyun said Haki.
Okay, that's very much like Liu Manyun.
"Then, Manyun?"
"From now on, that's what you'll call me."
Um, what's this?
Forced confession?
However, given their current relationship, and the binding with the Fanbao System,
Even if we don't want to be together in the future, it won't be an option.
Therefore, without Fanbao's reminder, Ling Yi already had this idea when he returned from the Ethereal Peak.
He not only wanted to leave Blue Star, but also wanted to take Liu Manyun Blue Star him.
After all, the Fanbao Points are the foundation for Ling Yi's growth.
In other words, Liu Manyun was the necessary condition for him to become stronger.
Without Liu Manyun, his system would be severely crippled.
"Starting tomorrow, I'll teach you some, um, techniques."
Liu Manyun blinked. "What kind of cultivation technique?"
Ling Yi smiled slightly, "A method that can make you stronger."
