Chapter 143 The Two Realms Descend, the Law of Nature
Ye Shang raised an eyebrow, signaling her to continue.
Shen Qian took a sip of juice and continued, "This was divined by my master before he died. My master passed away twenty years ago. I am a disciple of the Maoshan sect..."
Despite her young appearance, she is actually almost fifty years old. Cultivation in the Xuanmen is difficult, but some people do have some skills, especially the older ones.
When her master divined this information, it immediately alarmed the reclusive clan. Later, people from the reclusive clan came and invited her and her master over.
Unfortunately, her master did not live long in the end. Even though the reclusive clan did their best to save him, they still could not bring him back to life. Before his death, her master gave her all his possessions.
Well... actually, there wasn't much. Just some things she carried in her basket and some simple divination tools. Most importantly, she didn't even have any money. So, she shamelessly stayed with the reclusive clan for quite some time.
It wasn't until they gave her some money that she slowly descended the mountain to travel. At first, she made a living by telling fortunes... cough, that is, psychological counseling, a psychological counselor who fits the description of Hua Guo Bao Bao.
To be honest, this industry is actually quite good. It's just that she looks a bit young, so people don't trust her. If it weren't for her silver tongue and her relentless self-promotion, she wouldn't have been able to slowly build up a reputation in that area.
And so, she stayed there all these years; she wasn't one to move around easily.
If it weren't for the apocalypse that came at the end, ruining her life and leaving her with no money to save, she would have been devastated. The money she had painstakingly saved, through frugal living, was almost enough to buy a small house.
And that's how it ended...
"Get to the point," Ye Shang interrupted her bitter and tedious narration.
They haven't gotten to the point in half a day. Do they think they have nothing better to do?
Shen Qian choked, "The important...the important part is almost here, why did you interrupt me?"
After the apocalypse, she hid everywhere, but eventually returned to Maoshan, where there were few people and certainly no zombies, until she found the box her master had buried under the bed.
It reads: "The two realms have descended; this is the law of nature."
Ye Shang frowned and murmured, "The descent of two realms...the natural law."
Shen Qian didn't notice her murmur and continued, "I carefully read through the notebook left by my master back then."
There was a lot written on it, especially about the start of the war of aggression, the world in evolution, the world that disappeared, overlapping civilizations, and so on. Then, at the end of the notebook, there were a few crooked words written on it. She thought it was a poem, but it turned out to be just the line "Only parting can relieve sorrow."
Although she didn't quite understand, this passage always seemed to be a warning about something. She even wondered if her master's death was the consequence of revealing a heavenly secret.
Otherwise, how could a healthy old man suddenly become so frail? It's unlikely, especially since no amount of treatment could save him. This puzzled her greatly. However, her master's declining lifespan forced her to think of the key.
Later, she cast a divination herself, and the divination only showed a direction and a word, which was still the word '殇' (shāng, meaning 'mourning').
Then she followed the direction the divination indicated, but she never reached the base because she wasn't sure which base it was. The divination was too blurry, and it just kept pointing to the appearance of all the bases.
So she spent almost all her time inquiring around that area, without going into any base, just to find out if this person existed and if he was very powerful.
