Chapter 545 -544: I’m a Middleman between Two Worlds

[Announcing Special Mission “Searching for the Heavenly Ascension Fragment”: The tranquil world of Qin Xin, a tech world that has experienced three industrial revolutions, holds technological products not found in Jiuzhou World, such as cellphones, computers, and tablets. You are to sell these tech products of Qin Xin world in Jiuzhou world and earn 10,000 premium spirit stones through these trades.]

[The host can freely travel between the worlds during the mission]

[Mission reward: One Heavenly Ascension Fragment]

“Sell cellphones and computers in Jiuzhou World and earn 10,000 premium spirit stones?!”

Jiang Li feels the system is joking with him.

Ming Zhong World is considering selling their quantum computers in Jiuzhou. And now, you tell me I can make money by selling cellphones?

Even if he can earn one spirit stone, it will be considered an achievement for Jiang Li.

Quantum computers represent the culmination of the tech industry in Ming Zhong World. They can be used like phones or computers, project 3D Movies, are equipped with artificial intelligence, and can be controlled by thoughts… They are far superior to any tablets.

Ming Zhong World has gone through at least seven industrial revolutions.

“Even if I’m to act as a peddler between the two worlds, at least let me sell decent products.”

“The system probably thinks that the Jiuzhou monks haven’t seen a cellphone before, and would be tempted to buy them at a high price.”

Jiang Li feels a headache coming on, all the tasks given by the system are unreliable.

Jiang Li also notes that the system describes Qin Xin World as ‘peaceful’.

Does Qin Xin have no interference from the Immortal Realm?

“Let’s go take a look first.”

…

“Is this the Qin Xin world?” Jiang Li, standing on a collapsed tower, appears puzzled.

Jiang Li is in a vast continent that is about a third of the size of Jiuzhou World. That’s an impressive size.

There are collapsed majestic buildings, charred corpses, hanged mountains, dried-up oceans, broken falling stars, fragments of spiritual energy… all devoid of any sign of sentient life.

Obviously, this place has experienced a catastrophe of annihilation.

Jiang Li jumps down from the tower and picks up a broken spiritual treasure.

Such spiritual treasures are strewn all over the place.

“This is not a tech world, but a cultivation world.”

The charred corpses aren’t human remains but those of a Body Integration Realm cultivator who had been burned alive.

A Body Integration cultivator, who has achieved tri-unity, being burnt to death – one can only imagine the torments he had to undergo before his death.

“Has the system’s teleportation function finally broken down?” The more events Jiang Li experiences, the more he feels the system is useless.

Even the most useful feature — finding the fragment of the Heavenly Ascension Ladder — is now broken and unbearable to look at.

“Idle people are really hard done by, to cultivate to the Mahayana Realm with such a difficult-to-use system.” Jiang Li jests, while he looks for clues.

The system’s teleportation doesn’t make mistakes. This must be Qin Xin World, only he doesn’t understand why it altered from a tech world to a cultivation world.

Jiang Li contacts Bai Hongtu and tests the speed of time. Five hundred years have passed in Jiuzhou, while they had only experienced one hundred years here.

“So much has changed in a hundred years?”

Jiang Li enters the tower and observes a skeleton with his Divine Sense, lying on a desk, seemingly writing something till its dying breath.

It was protecting a notebook even in death, thus preserving it from the disaster.

“This deceased cultivator seems to be akin to a historian, recording the broad history of this world.”

The language rules are the same, Jiang Li scans all text with his Divine Sense and infers their meanings contextually.

This computational quantity wouldn’t pose any difficulty for Jiang Li’s Divine Sense.

“Our world, named Jingyu World, is a long-established cultivation civilization, having produced two ascended immortals.”

“These two ascended immortals, one upright, one evil, ascended simultaneously. Before their ascension they left behind two schools of thought.”

“The followers of the two schools in Jingyu World have been engaged in open and covert conflicts for ten thousand years without any resolution.”

“In the past thousand years, two talented disciples emerged from the upright and evil schools. They were referred to as ‘the young immortals’, likely to emulate the landmark of simultaneous ascension by the upright and evil immortals, thereby increasing Jingyu World’s influence in the Immortal Realm.”

“These two people lived up to expectations, attracting numerous opportunities and both advanced to the Transcendence Tribulation Stage.”

“However, disaster struck unexpectedly, a strange looking immortal-level creature appeared in Jingyu World. This creature spewed numerous monsters from its body ranging from the Body Integration Stage to the Foundation Establishment Stage, wreaking havoc.”

“During this catastrophe, the whole of Jingyu World united, high-ranking cultivators came forth to combat the Body Integration Stage and Divinity Transformation Stage monsters. The leaders of both upright and evil schools joined forces to resist the enemy, wielding Immortal Artifacts to confront the Immortal-level creature.”

“The two Transcendence Tribulation Stages used the Immortal Artifacts to confront the mindless Immortal-level creature and had a 60% chance of success, but suddenly the evil leader shouted out. A face emerged from the skin of the Immortal-level creature – the face of the evil Immortal who had ascended to the Immortal World ten thousand years ago.”

“The evil leader broke down mentally, the upright leader struggled hard, but in the end mortal humans cannot withstand the relentless power of an Immortal.”

“The leaders of both good and evil perished inside the mouth of the Immortal-level creature, the battle lines were shattered, perhaps out of disdain, the Immortal-level creature did not do any more damage, yet the monsters it gave birth to continued their massacre.”

“The battle continued for several months. During this time, they saw the dawn of victory many times, but soon, they realized that those were just false hopes.”

“After three months, Jingyu World was annihilated. I am perhaps the last survivor. A monster is currently standing outside the tower, it is staring at me, its huge eyes filling up the entire window. It seems I will die now.”

“If there are any survivors, I hope you remember this history and restore our Jingyu World’s prosperity… wait, what’s that? Something unusual is happening with the stars…”

The notes end here. The last stroke of the pen is a long straight line, perhaps the monster had gobbled up the last man of Jingyu world, and he was holding the pen when he died, leading to this scene.

Jiang Li puts away the notebook with mixed feelings.

“What does he mean ‘the stars are changing’?”

Jiang Li expands his Divine Sense, scanning every inch of the earth, he finds an Orb of Memory, which records the scenes before the world was destroyed.

The memory orb shows a terrifying voice echoing throughout the world, foretelling its destruction. The voice is deep, causing an inexplicable annoyance upon hearing, soon after which the stars crack, space fractures, and large stars fall.

Even a Heavenly Immortal would not dare to provoke this horror.

A flaw appeared in the sky, but contrary to usual where a flaw leads to winds blowing from the void, it revealed the stars of another world.

“Did a collision happen between worlds?!”

Jiang Li looks up abruptly. He had not noticed this abnormality earlier, presuming the stars were as usual. Only now he realized Jingyu World and Qin Xin World had collided. Jingyu World’s stars vibrated and fell due to the shock.

The stars overhead in Jiang Li’s current location are partly from Qin Xin World.

The system did not make an error in teleportation, Jingyu World and Qin Xin World are linked together now.

Jiang Li invokes the shopping feature, finding items from Jingyu World as well as Qin Xin World inside.

This place is both Jingyu World and Qin Xin World.
