Chapter 275: Hongjun Probes Again! Zhang Youren and Yang Hui Investigate Future City!

Above the Primordial Land.

Within the territory of the Human Race, on a previously empty plain, a brand-new city had appeared.

This newly built city was named "Future City," and it was starkly different from the other ancient and rugged cities on the Primordial Land.

Although Future City was not large in scale and had not yet been fully completed, every part of it exuded a modern atmosphere.

The towering city walls were built with special spiritual materials, capable of defending against external enemies without sacrificing aesthetics. Inside the city, the streets were spacious and tidy, with buildings arranged in a well-ordered manner, each place filled with a sense of technology and the future.

Qin Ling stood atop the highest building in the city, looking at this new world he had crafted with his own hands, a satisfied smile appearing on his face.

He believed that when the other members of the Transmigration Chat Group saw this city, they would surely be shocked by the scene before them and pleasantly surprised by his masterpiece.

After all, this was a shared memory belonging to them, the transmigrators! "I wonder how many people Lu Yun has brought over?" Qin Ling muttered to himself, his gaze involuntarily turning toward Lu Wu, who was helping nearby.

Lu Wu was the Martial Dao avatar of Lu Yun; ever since Qin Ling arrived in the Great Desolation, he had been by his side, assisting him in handling various matters.

Qin Ling turned to look at Lu Wu and asked, "Brother Lu Wu, how are things over at Lu Yun's side?"

Lu Wu replied, "Although I am an avatar of the original, unless I return to the Cosmos Stage or the original actively communicates with me, I cannot know the original's specific situation at this moment. Do you need me to go back and check?"

Qin Ling shook his head and said, "No need. I believe that with Lu Yun's strength and wisdom, everything will be arranged properly."

Qin Ling knew that Lu Yun's abilities were extraordinary, and for the arrival of the Transmigration Chat Group members this time, he must have had a thorough plan and arrangement.

Lu Wu nodded, also in full agreement.

According to his estimation, the official stage of the Genius Tournament would begin before long, and the original would certainly have everything arranged before the tournament started.

"In that case, let us continue to perfect this city." Qin Ling took a deep breath, his gaze once again cast toward the Future City under construction ahead.

He intended to add more modern facilities to this city, making it a warm home for the Transmigration Chat Group members in the Primordial World.

Thus, Qin Ling and Lu Wu threw themselves into the construction of Future City together.

In Zixiao Palace, the gaze of Hongjun Daozu was profound and complex.

Although Lu Yun had previously shielded the Heavenly Dao from probing Qin Ling, he had still used other means to eventually find Qin Ling's location.

Consequently, he had been silently observing Qin Ling's every move, attempting to glean some clues from them.

However, as Qin Ling's actions became more frequent, Hongjun found that he understood less and less.

With the appearance of Future City under Qin Ling's hand, Hongjun felt a trace of unease.

This name seemed to portend some kind of underlying meaning; Hongjun vaguely felt that this might be greatly related to Lu Yun's subsequent plans, yet he could not deduce it.

After pondering for a long time, Hongjun decided to test them personally.

He turned his gaze to another part of the Primordial Land, where two figures were currently undergoing a Golden Immortal Tribulation.

These two figures were none other than the Good Corpse of Hongjun's boy attendants, Haotian and Yaochi, who, under Hongjun's arrangement, had reincarnated as humans, named Zhang Youren and Yang Hui respectively. After reincarnating, Zhang Youren and Yang Hui quickly converged and then displayed astonishing talent and strength. To this day, they had not only passed the preliminary round of the Honghuang Genius Competition, but their cultivation had progressed rapidly, and now they had simultaneously ushered in the Golden Immortal Tribulation.

Zhang Youren and Yang Hui sat cross-legged, their bodies shining brilliantly, forming a sharp contrast with the Tribulation Cloud in the sky.

"Boom—"

Thunder flashed and roared within the Tribulation Cloud, as if it wanted to swallow the entire world. However, Zhang Youren and Yang Hui were not afraid in the slightest; they each circulated their magic power to resist the thunderous force within the Tribulation Cloud.

The Golden Immortal Tribulation Lightning, which was terrifyingly horrific to other humans, seemed unable to cause them any harm at all.

After a fierce confrontation, Zhang Youren and Yang Hui finally succeeded in transcending the Golden Immortal Tribulation, both becoming Golden Immortals. As the Tribulation Cloud dispersed, powerful auras radiated from the two, as if making the surrounding world tremble.

"Great!"

"We have Golden Immortal powerhouses too! And there are two of them!"

"Hahaha, let's hurry up and go congratulate Zhang Youren and Yang Hui."

The humans nearby who were watching Zhang Youren and Yang Hui transcend the tribulation could not help but become excited, one after another stepping forward to congratulate Zhang Youren and Yang Hui.

Yet, regarding this, the reactions of Zhang Youren and Yang Hui were very indifferent.

Because, after transcending the tribulation, Zhang Youren and Yang Hui recovered the memories of their past lives, and they immediately received a voice transmission from Hongjun. In the transmission, Hongjun instructed them to head to Future City to make contact with Lu Yun and Qin Ling, attempting to uncover Lu Yun's true intentions.

Zhang Youren and Yang Hui dared not show the slightest delay and immediately set off for Future City, leaving the humans there somewhat bewildered.

Not long after, Zhang Youren and his companion arrived in this city filled with a modern atmosphere.

Looking at this city before them, which was so different from anything they had seen before, the expressions of the two were also somewhat strange. After the two exchanged a glance, they continued forward and arrived at the gate of Future City.

Inside Future City, Qin Ling was busy directing a group of Puppets he had refined himself to build the city.

Seeing the arrival of Zhang Youren and Yang Hui, Qin Ling could not help but feel a bit surprised. He looked the two up and down and discovered that their auras were extraordinary; they were clearly not ordinary humans.

"Where do the two fellow Daoists come from? What brings you here?" Qin Ling stepped forward and asked.

Zhang Youren and Yang Hui looked at each other, smiled, and cupped their hands, saying, "We have come from other human cities, traveling and passing through your esteemed land. We discovered that this is a unique city, so we have come specifically to pay a visit."

Qin Ling nodded and said, "So that is how it is. Since the two have come from afar, you are honored guests of Future City. Please follow me, and I will arrange accommodations for you. It just so happens that our hotel has just been completed; you two can be considered the first to check in!"

He let the Puppets continue their work while he himself led Zhang Youren and Yang Hui toward a hotel that had not been built long ago.

While flying toward that side, Qin Ling asked, "May I ask the honorable names of the two?"

Because they knew that Hongjun had already obscured the heavenly secrets for them, Zhang Youren and Yang Hui both felt that even if they reported their names, the other party would likely not be able to calculate anything, so they both reported their names.

Who would have thought that Qin Ling, who was leading the way for them, would suddenly come to a halt and blurt out, "Jade Emperor, Queen Mother? Did Hongjun send you here?"

For a moment, Zhang Youren and Yang Hui were both dumbfounded, almost unable to resist asking how Qin Ling knew.

They had thought they were hiding it very well; who would have expected Qin Ling to recognize their origins at a glance! How were they supposed to play this? (End of chapter)
