A look of surprise flashed in Nishino's eyes when he saw the superpowers they displayed.
They will, even though I can do it myself.
But I am a cultivator, and as long as I am willing to learn, there is nothing I cannot learn.
But they are ordinary people, where did they get their superpowers from?
Although he had little contact with ordinary people, he knew that there were very few ordinary people with superpowers over the past few hundred years.
How did you acquire your superpowers?
"This is an ability we already possess. We drank some spiritual spring water a while ago and gained it ahead of time." He Sichen knew that Xiye was stronger than him, so there was nothing for him to do.
"Ahead of schedule?" Nishino didn't understand.
"Fourteen years later, the world will experience a spiritual revival brought about by an extraterrestrial meteorite. One-third of the billions of people will gain various superpowers, including the five elements (metal, wood, water, fire, earth), wind, thunder, ice, space, mental power, clairvoyance, night vision, precognition, shadow-遁 (shadow-遁 is a type of magical ability), invisibility, and so on, totaling hundreds of types."
"Spiritual energy will revive after fourteen years? A third of the population will gain superpowers?"
This news completely shocked Nishino, leaving him with a concussion.
Fourteen years is but a blink of an eye for him; ten years can pass in the blink of an eye.
But if so many people gain superpowers, won't he and the remaining hundred or so cultivators seem to have no presence?
It will also affect their cultivation of immortality.
If ordinary people had superpowers, wouldn't the world descend into chaos?
What if someone comes to Shenxian Mountain looking for rare and precious treasures?
Or what if they unite and besiege these cultivators to steal their treasures?
He has only just entered this stage; he still has a long time before reaching the Tribulation Stage.
If I were killed by a superhuman, wouldn't I have never even experienced the taste of ninety-nine heavenly tribulations?
If you've been a cultivator for hundreds of years, and you haven't experienced the ninety-nine heavenly tribulations, can you still be considered a cultivator?
Even if there's a 99% chance he'll die from the heavenly tribulation, he'd accept it willingly and have no regrets.
Seeing Xi Ye's grim expression, He Sichen was puzzled. "What's wrong? The revival of spiritual energy has its pros and cons, but it's the will of Heaven. Even if you don't accept it, you can't stop the will of Heaven!"
"The Way of Heaven?" He Sichen's words were like a revelation to Xiye.
Yes! The omnipotent Heaven can make anyone die as it pleases.
Who has the ability to defy fate and defy destiny?
In tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even hundreds of millions of years, only one person has emerged who could contend with the Heavenly Dao and whose strength was on par with it.
But that person still disappeared into the universe.
"Yes! It is the will of Heaven! Since that is the case, then I will seize this opportunity, withstand the ninety-nine heavenly tribulations, and ascend to immortality."
Nishino suddenly understood the matter, his confidence increased, and he turned and left.
"Wait a minute, can you tell us about the Immortal Mountain?" He Sichen called out to him.
"Hmm? Why don't you talk to An Ri?" Xi Ye was somewhat resentful that He Sichen didn't tell him more about An Ri.
Now he wants to talk about the Immortal Mountain himself? Humph! No way!
Unless an equivalent exchange occurs.
“Anri didn’t tell me. We’re not at the level of trust where we can talk about cultivators yet. I don’t know much about her either.”
He Sichen did not hide anything; his sword-like eyebrows furrowed slightly, showing a hint of worry.
He had known An Wan for more than half a year. She couldn't possibly tell him such important things as the Immortal Mountain, the Spirit Spring, the cultivators, and the mystery of her background.
Or perhaps she didn't even tell the Lu family.
If I had told them, it would be impossible for me to have kept the secret until now without leaking a single word.
The Lu family cannot remain calm.
"Hmph!" Upon hearing this, Nishino let out a cold snort. "If you want to know about Mount Shinsen, you'll have to exchange information about Anri with me."
“No!” He Sichen refused. An Wan had changed her name, and probably her appearance as well. Since she didn’t want the cultivators of Xiye and Shenxian Mountain to know her true identity, he couldn’t tell them either.
What a bad night.
The first cultivator she encountered was someone who knew An Wan.
“I already know what you look like and your name, and I’ll soon be able to find out Anri’s identity as well,” Nishino sneered.
He was obviously saying this to scare He Sichen; he wouldn't secretly investigate, he would just ask An Ri directly next time.
"I've already told you about the spiritual energy revival, isn't that an equal exchange?" He Sichen's mind worked quickly, and he knew that Xiye was trying to trick him into revealing An Wan's secret.
"Since she saved you and trusts you, I believe you won't let her down. There must be a reason why she doesn't want you to know more about her identity for the time being; perhaps she doesn't want you to disturb her life."
"Hmph!" You have to say it.
Nishino crossed his arms and glared fiercely at He Sichen.
"Then you should also go and ask her about the Immortal Mountain. There's probably a reason why she won't tell you."
Just retort with his words.
"There are some things you don't understand, but sooner or later she will tell me her secret, because I'm on her side and will always be her partner."
He Sichen was a little angry. He was already annoyed that An Wan didn't trust him, and Xi Ye had said it several times, which made him lose face.
He wanted her to believe him, but she was too guarded, making it impossible for him to get close.
In the past six months, he has helped the Lu family so much, but she still only has a superficial relationship with him and he can't get into her heart at all.
However, he was still quite surprised to learn tonight that she was a cultivator.
"Then tell me about the spiritual energy revival, and I'll tell you about cultivating immortality too?" Xi Ye was eager to learn about the spiritual energy revival, as it was the first time he had heard of it, and he was filled with interest and a little worry about the future.
For the sake of a win-win situation, he couldn't remain aloof and bully He Sichen forever.
He will eventually learn the truth about Anri's secret from him.
