Chapter 378
Yuan Jing returned to the system space. This time he did not check his personal information immediately. Instead, he checked his condition. He found that his soul was more solid and he seemed much clearer. He thought that this was because he had completely let go of his concerns about the original world. From then on, he had only one goal, which was to pursue the great way with his lover, make himself stronger, and control his destiny in his own hands.
Thinking of this, his mood became more mellow and his mentality became more peaceful. Only then did he say, "Check the personal information."
"Okay, host." This time, Xiao Wu's voice sounded much more friendly in Yuan Jing's ears.
Personal Information:
Name: Yuan Jing
Points: 22500-20000-100-500
Soul power: 1743+700
Skills: Poison ability (elementary) (Note: needs to be activated), medical skills (entry level ++), pharmacy skills (elementary), alchemy skills (beginner), talisman skills (elementary), formation skills (elementary), heavenly eye (permanently bound)
Merit: 3182500+1000000
Items: a Lingquan bead (permanently bound to the soul), a portable cultivation space (fused with the Lingquan bead), a medium storage space, a Taobao mall (unbound), a primary spiritual vein (gifted by the consciousness of the orcs' original world), a psychic heart (gifted by the consciousness of the ancient spiritual world and permanently bound), and a ray of the world origin of the Xuankun world.
Yuan Jing thought that the reason why his soul power increased so much was because he solved the problem of the original world and absorbed the origin of the world.
"Xiao Wu, by the way, where is the system?" Yuan Jing suddenly remembered this system with incorrect values that he had long forgotten. He found that the medicine provided by the system was not as effective as the ones he made himself. He was always worried about the things taken out by this incorrect system, including the system that could give people superpowers. He and Ling Shaoyang never thought of using it on the subordinates who followed them, for fear of side effects. For example, would they be controlled by the system?
Moreover, they were all able to practice martial arts. For example, Lu Qi and others later became powerful warriors. It made no difference to them whether they had superpowers or not.
So over time, they both forgot about this system. Now when they saw the inventory in their personal profile, they remembered that it existed.
Xiao Wu: "This system does not recommend the host to use this system. The host can choose to destroy or ignore it."
Yuan Jing asked curiously, "Where on earth did this system come from? Was it sent to my world by someone or what?"
Xiao Wu was silent for a moment before answering: "This requires the host to explore and find the answer on his own."
Well, he needs to explore on his own again. Yuan Jing is used to it, and he has some guesses in his mind this time. However, those things are not within his reach at his current level of strength. However, he believes that one day in the future he will get all the answers.
"Okay, then will the destruction have any impact on you, Xiaowu?" Yuan Jing asked worriedly.
"No, thank you for your concern, host."
Yuan Jing smiled: "Then just destroy it directly. What the system can do, I can actually do with my current strength."
This is his confidence, including the ability to stimulate people's superpowers, but he did not make this result public. There is no need to change the situation where people with superpowers and warriors coexist.
"Send me to the next world."
"Okay, host."
Before leaving, Yuan Jing drew another trace of the world's origin. The last time, that trace of origin was completely absorbed by him, and the benefits he gained were unquestionable.
***
Chen State, Wuqing Town.
"The fire is coming! The fire is coming! Save people quickly——"
As soon as Yuan Jing woke up, he found himself in a sea of fire. The pungent smoke almost suffocated him. The flames around him had licked his clothes. If he didn't find a way, he would become a burnt man in the blink of an eye.
Yuan Jing quickly took out a talisman and slapped it on himself. It was a water-based defensive talisman. His body was immediately wrapped in a layer of shell, bringing in fresh water vapor. No matter how raging the fire outside was, it could not break through the defensive shield for the time being.
In just a few breaths, Yuan Jing understood the current situation and received the memories of his original body, which made him realize that the most important thing at the moment was not to escape from the sea of fire, but to save his life and rescue others.
Yuan Jing quickly shuttled through the sea of fire. All the people in the house were mortals, so Yuan Jing knocked them out and threw them into the space. However, after running through the entire sea of fire, he only saved four people. This was because when Yuan Jing woke up, the fire had been burning for a while, and when it burned to his room, it was the last place. In order to trap everyone, the arsonist had put a sleeping pill in the well water in advance, so everyone in the house was knocked unconscious and burned to death without knowing it.
After Yuan Jing searched the entire house and sent the four people who were still alive into the space, he slapped a concealment talisman on himself, found a deserted direction and quietly left, making the people guarding outside think that he had also died in the sea of fire.
Yuan Jing didn't expect that he would almost be burned to death at the very beginning of this time. After leaving the town, he released Sanwei and asked Sanwei to lead him on the road. Sanwei knew his situation and almost turned back to kill all those who wanted to burn his master to death. It was Yuan Jing who persuaded it to hurry on the road. Then Sanwei enlarged its body, let Yuan Jing sit on its back, and then left at lightning speed.
In order to prevent Sanwei's whereabouts from being discovered, Yuan Jing also used a concealment talisman on Sanwei, and chose to walk to remote places.
Two days later, Yuan Jing had left the State of Chen where his original body was, and appeared in an inconspicuous town in the State of Qi, and walked into the town with the four survivors.
During the two days of traveling, Yuan Jing practiced without stopping for a moment, because this was a world of cultivating immortals. Although the spiritual energy in this mortal world was very thin, with the help of the spiritual spring water in the space and the help of powerful soul power, he had become a cultivator of the third level of Qi Refining in just two days.
After settling down in the rented courtyard of the inn, the uncle who was with him squatted down with his head in his hands and said, "Why is this happening? What did our Zuo family do wrong to have our entire family burned down by someone?"
The other two were still children. They might have escaped by hiding in the cellar while playing hide-and-seek. When Yuan Jing found them, they had already fainted from the smoke. In the entire Zuo family, including the servants, only five people survived, including Yuan Jing. Yes, Yuan Jing also wanted to ask, how big is the hatred and resentment?
If Yuan Jing had not replaced the original body, no one in the Zuo family would have survived. They would all have died, and no one would have investigated the culprit behind the fire on behalf of the Zuo family.
The last person was a servant from the Zuo Mansion. He was holding two children with a confused look on his face. The two children saw their uncle wiping his tears. The unfamiliar environment and their missing parents made them cry loudly too.
Yuan Jing went outside to get some food and drinks, and when he came back, his uncle had stopped crying and was comforting the two children. The three adults fed the children first, then coaxed them to sleep, and then sat together to talk. They were brought out by Yuan Jing, so they didn't know whether they were safe at the moment.
"Uncle Hai, we are in Qi State now. I was saved by an immortal. He sent us out of Chen State and placed us in Qi State." This period of time was enough for Yuan Jing to make up a set of excuses. Moreover, the mortal world called all those cultivators immortals and was very respectful to immortals.
As expected, after hearing this, Zuo Wenhai was only grateful, and did not continue to ask how the immortal rescued and sent them away. Moreover, he did not doubt Yuan Jing's statement at all, including his servant Li Sheng, because it would take ten days to half a month to travel from Wuqing Town in Chen State to the territory of Qi State by carriage, and it was only two days since the fire, so there was no other explanation except the intervention of an immortal.
Zuo Wenhai asked expectantly: "Does the immortal have..."
He wanted to ask the immortal whether he would accept Yuan Jing as his disciple. If Yuan Jing could also become an immortal, he could avenge the many people in the Zuo family who died tragically.
Yuan Jing nodded and shook his head, saying, "The immortal taught me a set of skills and asked me to practice them on my own. Whether he will accept me as a disciple depends on how well I practice."
Zuo Wenhai said quickly: "Then Ah Jing, you just practice well, and don't worry about other things. Li Sheng and I are here, we will find a job right away and then raise Ah Ming and Ah Mei."
Honest Li Sheng nodded repeatedly: "I am strong and I can find a job." He was grateful to Yuan Jingneng for rescuing him.
Yuan Jing advised: "Rest for a day or two and get yourself better. Besides, Ming and Mei also need someone to take care of them. The immortal gave me some gold and silver before he left, so you don't have to worry about having no money."
Yuan Jing turned and went back into the house, and when he came out he brought out a bag of gold and silver, which of course he took out from the space. The so-called immortal was made up by him out of thin air. He opened it and put it on the table. The gold leaves and silver ingots together were enough for them to use for more than ten years. Zuo Wenhai's eyes turned red again when he saw this, and he turned around, wiped his tears and looked back.
"Okay, I'll keep the money first. Li Sheng and I won't rush to find a job. Let's go around this town first and find out about the situation. If it's suitable, we can settle down here and buy a house."
Yuan Jing nodded: "That's what I meant. Just give this money to Uncle Hai. I still have some money on me."
"Okay, okay, if you need it, tell Uncle Hai."
Yuan Jing did not say why the Zuo family was wiped out. Zuo Wenhai just thought that Yuan Jing didn't know either, and hoped that he could be accepted as a disciple by an immortal in the future and then find out what kind of enemy had committed such a brutal act on the Zuo family.
Zuo Wenhai and Li Sheng ate something and went out to inquire about the news. Yuan Jing stayed behind to prevent the two children from waking up, while sorting out the memories and plot in his mind.
His original name was Zuo Yuanjing. He lived in the Zuo family in the mortal world which was separated from the world of immortals. However, his life ended when he was sixteen years old. His memory could be said to be very simple. His father was missing and his mother died of illness. He was raised by his clansmen, so he had very deep feelings for them. Therefore, after his death, he was filled with resentment. All his clansmen died. He hoped to find out the truth about his own death and that of his clansmen, and to avenge the Zuo family.
Yuan Jing thought to himself that it was a good thing that his original body did not know the development of the plot, otherwise his resentment and hatred would be even deeper, because all this was related to his biological father, because his biological father caused all the tribesmen to suffer unexpected deaths, he would not only feel resentment, but also guilt. Those tribesmen who had been kind to him died because of his biological father. How could he accept such a reality?
The original body's biological father, Zuo Wenlu, did not simply disappear. Instead, a passing cultivator discovered his aptitude for cultivation and took him to the world of immortals. Then, a woman who loved Zuo Wenlu, in order to help Zuo Wenlu break away from the mortal world and cultivate without worries and to do Zuo Wenlu good, sent people to the mortal world and killed all the members of the Zuo family, including Zuo Wenlu's son Zuo Yuanjing. In this way, Zuo Wenlu no longer had any ties to the mortal world.
Of course, this woman is not the heroine of the male protagonist Zuo Wenlu, but just a vicious female supporting role in the plot. The real heroine is Zuo Wenlu’s female disciple, and the male protagonist Zuo Wenlu, the biological father of the original body, has another identity. He is the reincarnation of a real immortal from the upper realm.
Yuan Jing:......
This terrible plot left him speechless, and he didn't know where to start complaining.
That's why he didn't choose to tell Zuo Wenhai the truth. What would happen if Zuo Wenhai knew the truth? Mortals simply couldn't go to the world of immortal cultivation. Moreover, knowing that the entire Zuo family died tragically because of Zuo Wenlu, Zuo Wenhai would probably not be able to accept it.
