Chapter 116: Not a Single Person to be Seen

The sky was clear, boundless as far as the eye could see.

Liu Yao followed behind Liu Yuqing, his gaze intense: "Brother Liu, can you teach me some Immortal Cultivation techniques?"

By now, Liu Yao already believed Liu Yuqing's words.

Zhang Shaoqin's Spirit Martial Dao had extremely high requirements for a person's aptitude.

Liu Yao did not fit the criteria for a Spirit Martial Artist, so he set his sights on Liu Yuqing.

Liu Yuqing glanced at Liu Yao indifferently: "No."

"Brother Liu, we might have been family five hundred years ago, help me out!" Liu Yao said hurriedly.

Liu Yao felt more and more that he belonged to the type of protagonist found in movies.

First betrayed by his girlfriend and kicked out of the company, then meeting the extraordinary Zhang Shaoqin, and subsequently meeting Liu Yuqing.

Isn't this a common movie trope?

Who knew Liu Yuqing would glance at Liu Yao: "You are quite good at climbing the social ladder.

But it is a pity; it is not that I am unwilling to teach you, but there are two reasons.

First, my techniques were taught by my sect, and without the sect's permission, I cannot teach them to others.

Second, to step into the world of Immortal Cultivation, one needs to undergo Enlightenment, and I do not have an Enlightenment Stone on me right now, so I cannot help you step into the world of Immortal Cultivation."

"Is that so..." Visible disappointment appeared on Liu Yao's face.

"However, when people from my sect arrive in your world, I can recommend you to join our sect.

With me there, you will certainly pass the Beginner test." Liu Yuqing patted his own chest, full of confidence.

Liu Yao looked delighted: "Really?"

Beside them, Zhang Shaoqin sneered: "Your sect might be the same as the Bronze King; if you are allowed to come to our world, we might all end up as slaves."

The delight on Liu Yao's face flashed and vanished; he looked at Liu Yuqing with wariness.

What Zhang Shaoqin said made a lot of sense.

"Sigh, our Qingluo Sect is not a Demon Sect, how could we do such things?

Moreover, every mortal is a resource, a seed for cultivation; we strive to protect them, how could we do such a thing?

Furthermore, due to the Dark Moon, the population of our Immortal World has plummeted; three hundred years ago, the seven realms formed the Cultivation Alliance.

Regarding worlds like yours, our Immortal Cultivation sects are not allowed to slaughter at will." Liu Yuqing explained hurriedly.

"Who knows?" Zhang Shaoqin sneered.

He could not trust someone he had only just met.

"I swear upon my Dao heart, the Qingluo Sect coming to your world will definitely bring more benefits than harm!

Could it be that you do not desire longevity and to be carefree?" Liu Yuqing asked.

As of now, he needed the assistance of some people.

Only in this way could he have a chance to transmit news back to the Qingluo Sect.

That was why he was explaining.

"Who knows?" Zhang Shaoqin looked at Liu Yuqing, still harboring distrust.

"As long as you tell me where the Dragon Vein of your world is, I will have the means to contact my sect." As Liu Yuqing spoke, he kept his eyes fixed on Zhang Shaoqin.

By now, he had some understanding of this world.

This was a completely mortal world, where not even powerful martial artists existed.

The only strong individual was Zhang Shaoqin.

Zhang Shaoqin must certainly know about the Dragon Vein.

Most importantly, Zhang Shaoqin's master seemed to have a history with the Martial Emperor of the Wu Kingdom.

Zhang Shaoqin's eyes flickered: "Our world does not have a Dragon Vein."

Liu Yuqing did not press the matter further.

He knew he had not yet gained Zhang Shaoqin's trust.

Just then, Liu Yao spoke up: "Stop arguing, should we go watch the movie 'Heize'?"

Originally, I thought the events at the Dahuang Mountain Range were nonsense.

Now that I've met you two, I even feel that the rumors online about Heize holding off ten thousand alone might actually be true?

Should we go take a look?

Though, with our current status, would going to see a movie be a bit beneath our dignity?"

Liu Yao's final remark was completely ignored.

Beside him, Liu Yuqing smiled: "We can go take a look."

Zhang Shaoqin also nodded: "Naturally, that is no problem."

"I find it strange; logically speaking, your world has almost no Spiritual Qi, so it is impossible for a powerhouse like Master Shaoqin to appear.

However, Shaoqin's master had heaven-defying talent and pioneered the path of the Spirit Martial Artist.

This path is very difficult and almost impossible for other mortals to adapt to.

Therefore, that Heize you mentioned earlier, holding off ten thousand alone, should also just be a rumor."

In Liu Yuqing's view, this world simply lacked the soil for Immortal Cultivators and martial artists to survive.

Except for Zhang Shaoqin's master, a heaven-defying genius who researched the path of the Spirit Martial Artist.

Such special existences were extremely rare and could not possibly appear again.

The release of the movie 'Heize' had also stirred up quite a wave of interest online.

However, the term Heize was still subject to a certain degree of traffic restriction.

Of course, this movie still received attention from many who had previously been concerned with the Dahuang Mountain Range.

On the internet, there is much discussion about this movie.

"It's getting interesting now!"

"Right, before, the authorities terminated the live stream of the Dahuang Mountain Range, and we all said that something incredible had been discovered.

For example, Heize's corpse had reanimated, and the authorities had discovered the existence of the Supernatural.

Those who shut down the stream shut it down, and those who throttled traffic throttled it.

Now, releasing the movie *Heize*, what does that mean?"

"It's truly absurd, I don't understand it!"

"If Heize is truly as extraordinary as the rumors say, then why continue to show the movie?"

"This *Heize* is produced by the same film company as the previous *Hero*."

"From the discovery of the Dahuang Mountain Range until now, it has only been a little over a month; for this movie to come out, it's too absurd!"

"It's definitely just riding the coattails of the hype!"

"Trash movie!"

"What kind of movie can you film in a dozen days?"

"I suspect the movie was already filmed, and they just renamed it *Heize* before the release."

"It would be better to say that this movie was acted out by Heize himself!"

The discussion regarding Heize continues to spread across the internet.

There are also many people who have other views.

"Could it be that the authorities are preparing to tell us that the Supernatural truly exists?"

"Or is it that the world is changing, and when I wake up tomorrow, I will be able to have an Awakening of powers?"

Of course, those who have this thought all believe that it was Heize who Slayed the ten thousand Wolf Guard.

At school, Lin Chao is basking in the Sun, feeling lazy.

Beside him, Zhang Yiming and Chen Longxuan have started arguing again.

"If the Supernatural truly exists in this world, and Heize really did Slay ten thousand Wolf Guard single-handedly.

Then this time, why would the authorities release the movie *Heize*? This doesn't make sense.

Therefore, the Dahuang Mountain Range was actually just an Ordinary archaeological event; there is no such thing as the Supernatural at all.

As for the movie *Heize*, it's just a movie riding the hype, already filmed long ago.

It is precisely because there is nothing in the Dahuang Mountain Range that the authorities are so open to accepting and allowing the screening of the movie *Heize*." The one speaking is Zhang Yiming; he is uncharacteristically logical.

Beside him, Chen Longxuan has a smile on his face: "Recently, more and more strange events have been happening in the world.

I have reason to speculate that the Supernatural is Awakening."

"What strange events?"

"The dragon roar on Taiqing Mountain, the vampires in Fengkou Cave—these are all examples."

"Nonsense, they are all just rumors."

"I recently joined a Supernatural Research Society; there is a lot of evidence inside.

Yiming, if you join the society, a lot of the data collected inside can be shown to you."

"I have no interest in these things."

"If you have no interest, why did you buy a ticket for the *Heize* movie?"

"It's Li Ting who wants to see it; she heard that *Heize* and *Hero* are the same type of movie, so she insisted on going to see it."

Chen Longxuan spreads his hands and looks at Lin Chao beside him: "Do you want to join our Supernatural Research Society?

At present, we already have hundreds of online members."

Lin Chao smiles: "Illegal gathering, be careful or I'll report you."

"Forget it." Chen Longxuan shakes his head, "You people, opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared.

Once the Supernatural truly descends, that will be the only chance for us to turn our lives around in this lifetime."

"Stop trying to turn your life around; you'd better not fail your courses first, be careful not to earn enough credits and fail to graduate."

Beside them, Lin Chao glances at the two of them without speaking.

"Five people, two have zero Spirit Power, just like Ordinary mortals.

Among them, three have yet to be found."

He thinks slowly.

Regarding the movie *Heize*, Lin Chao is also paying attention.

As the publicity for this movie increases, his reputation is also constantly growing.

But what he is more concerned about are those 5 transmigrators.

Currently, he has already found two.

One of them has no danger, so Lin Chao did not do anything, merely placing a restriction on them.

Of course, that person did not discover Lin Chao's existence either.

The other person, however, is full of danger, so Lin Chao wiped them out directly.

As for the other three, Lin Chao has not yet found their whereabouts.

……

"Cough, cough..." Jia Xiangjun coughs, an unhealthy look appearing on her face.

However, she does not pay it any mind, instead continuing to use her skincare products.

"Sigh, no matter how good skincare products are, they are of little use to you and me." Qin Yi looks at Jia Xiangjun, her gaze very calm.

Jia Xiangjun and she have lived for so long, always remaining ageless.

Jia Xiangjun did not care about modern skincare products at all, nor had she ever used them.

"If there is any use, one should not give up," Jia Xiangjun said with a firm gaze.

Qin Yi let out a sigh: "Heize... is already dead.

We, too, are likely going to die soon."

There were already quite a few white strands appearing in Qin Yi's hair now.

The medicinal effect of the Longevity Pill was, after all, about to fade.

"A few days ago, Heize's Spear showed signs of movement," a glimmer of spirit appeared on Jia Xiangjun's face, "His Spear has converged with Lin Ping's sword."

"This... what could that possibly explain?" Qin Yi sighed, "Heize's corpse is right there in the Dahuang Mountain Range."

Having spent so long with Jia Xiangjun, how could Qin Yi not know Jia Xiangjun's thoughts?

Jia Xiangjun was unwilling to give up, still believing there was a possibility that Heize was alive.

"No, as long as there is a sliver of possibility!

If there is a sliver of possibility that Heize is alive, I must see him once!"

In the best state possible.

Jia Xiangjun said silently in her heart.

"Sigh," Qin Yi let out a helpless sigh.

In truth, looking at the now somewhat irrational Jia Xiangjun, Qin Yi felt more envy than anything else in her heart.

Xiangjun still had someone she wanted to see.

As for the person she wanted to see, who would that be?

Not a single person.

Over thousands of years, she had lived a mediocre life, living even worse than an Ordinary person.

"I heard that you made some changes to the ending of 'Heize'," Qin Yi spoke up.

"Mm," Jia Xiangjun's body moved imperceptibly, "If... I say if, Heize is truly still alive, I have some words I want to leave for him."

"Your current behavior has already attracted the attention and suspicion of quite a few people."

"I only have half a year left to live, what else is there to fear?" Jia Xiangjun smiled serenely; in the mirror, her classical beauty and modern beauty connected perfectly.

"Indeed, two people on the verge of death like us, what is there to fear?"

"Qin Yi, do you really have no regrets at all?"

"Regrets?"

"Mm."

"If I had to have one, it would be to personally say thank you to Qin Kuan."
