The overlapping of the Underworld and the real world lasted for a full three days before slowly receding. Those countless spirit ghosts escaping from the Underworld could only be dealt with by spending a lot of time and energy from the Security Bureau.
For this reason, the Security Bureau even specifically established a Demon Hunting Branch to deal with these spirit ghosts.
Due to the fermentation of the Shu Capital Underworld incident, the incense of the Buddhist and Taoist sects has been thriving recently, with many people seeking blessings increasing significantly.
As time passed, the events that fermented on the internet also faded away, as people still had to live.
In the Phoenix Falcon Fist Martial Arts Dojo, Lu Ren sat in front of the computer quietly playing games, dominating the game with his super strong reflexes.
When a round ended, the system automatically detected his cheating and then locked his account.
Damn it!
Lu Ren's face turned slightly gloomy; this was already the third account this week.
Beside him, Li Qingling, who was practicing the Phoenix Extreme Fist, couldn't help but speak up when she saw this: "Teacher, is it always this idle after the Bright Awakening?"
Lu Ren glanced at her.
"Who told you that, you're only seeing me entertaining, but in reality, my body and mind are cultivating, changing drastically inside me as we speak."
As Lu Ren spoke, she watched him stuff a piece of fried chicken into his mouth and chew.
Li Qingling: "..."
Seeing Li Qingling's disbelief, Lu Ren did not say much.
The meridians extended from the Red Dragon Inner Core in his body had preliminarily connected with his own body's meridian system, and he had begun to gradually semi-energize his meridian system, thereby constructing energy channels throughout his body.
Although his skill level was still improving, from the perspective of the attribute panel, Tier One, Sixth Tier, was the limit state of his current realm. To advance further, he needed to enter the Sixth Land and once again break through the shackles of life beyond previous boundaries.
Another limit breaking?
Time flowed like water, and in a blink, it was the Spring Festival.
Lu Ren rarely gave Li Qingling a few days off, letting her find her friends to gather, only emphasizing that if she dared not return home at night or recklessly gave away her virtue, he would break her legs.
Li Qingling pouted.
"Teacher, who do you think I could even have as a friend."
Lu Ren was surprised: "Not even any suitors?"
Li Qingling laughed: "Who would like a girl who practices fists every day."
She showed off her fists, the contours of her biceps clearly visible and very proud.
"I'm basically Zhang Weili reincarnated."
Lu Ren nodded approvingly and said, "If you can master one of the Phoenix Falcon Fist or Phoenix Extreme Fist, I'll teach you a true skill focused on body strengthening."
This Ten Lands Great Accomplishment Golden Body Bodhisattva Path horizontal refining true skill, after integrating Spring and Autumn, Phoenix Falcon Fist, and Phoenix Extreme Fist, had changed completely from the original Kuzhu Temple true skill given by Ji Quanzhen, even the fundamental essence had changed thoroughly.
Unaware of anything, Li Qingling, upon hearing that there would be a Bright Awakening True Skill taught, immediately lit up with a smile.
"Rest assured, teacher, I will certainly get a good score at this national Martial Arts Conference."
Lu Ren nodded slightly indifferently: "Give it your all."
Seeing Lu Ren's lack of reaction, Li Qingling gave up.
Lu Ren saw it in her eyes but didn't say anything. The nature of youth, after all, loves to boast, a bit more polishing would be fine.
Master and apprentice had a rather sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner.
And that year passed.
In the blink of half a month, nationwide occurrences of spatial anomalies and encounters with spirit ghosts were increasing.
It wasn't just domestically, the whole world started experiencing spatial anomalies.
Many were intensely discussing whether to build an ark and leave Earth, or fully develop the Kunlun Exotic Realm to prepare for future population migration.
"Lu Ren, give some advice, should we develop towards the Kunlun Exotic Realm, or build spaceships to leave Earth?"
At this moment, Ji Quanzhen, in a well-fitted suit, stood on the host podium in the meeting room, speaking vigorously, suddenly turned to ask Lu Ren.
Lu Ren rubbed his temples in frustration. How should he answer? Just as he was about to speak, Ji Quanzhen said first.
"Lu the Kid, you must give some suggestions!"
Lu Ren was at a loss. He pondered for a long while before slowly saying, "Let's prepare for both, the earth's magnetic field is changing, soon... it's possible that modern sophisticated electronic devices will become unusable like in Kunlun, requiring special materials."
When his words fell, everyone who was discussing quieted down, even Ji Quanzhen looked solemn.
He sighed, "I can't understand this world more and more, maybe the ancient Immortal Gods will really return in this era."
This was not something they could decide, as the decision-makers above also needed their opinions to draw the best solution through a comprehensive summary.
Now the energy has undergone reform, and the most basic long-distance capability is already available. As long as a city-class spaceship capable of accommodating 300,000 people is built in near-earth orbit, Huaxia bloodlines can take root in the cosmos.
What puzzled Lu Ren was whether, if this were feasible, the cosmos would connect and overlap with the real world as this one did with other universes.
If that were the case.
Compared to a second voyage, Lu Ren was more inclined to establish a second world within Kunlun. After all, Huaxia already had technological preparation for the special particles in Kunlun. The next step was just to build a production line and add it to machinery to ensure the normal operation of electromagnetic components.
The era is progressing, yet regressing.
Standing at the floor-to-ceiling windows of the Security Bureau building, Lu Ren quietly looked outside.
Through the opened Heart Eye, the vast ocean-like magnetic field currently surged like a violent storm, raising huge waves.
This kind of magnetic field change was not obvious for a short time, but if someone stayed in this environment for a long time, their emotions would easily become irritable and restless.
This indicated something was influencing the magnetic field environment of the real world, subtly altering the entire world's magnetic field state.
Whether this would be good or bad for people, no one could say for sure.
"People nowadays seem to have become a bit more aggressive."
Ji Quanzhen came to Lu Ren's side and said this sentence.
At the same time, both their eyes fixed on the interface where a four-person squad was pursuing a spirit ghost on the screen.
Elder Ji observed, with a hint of wryness, "Through study, these spirit ghosts can be made into potions that can enhance the spirit."
Lu Ren raised an eyebrow: "That's not bad."
After a while, Ji Quanzhen's voice carried a sense of gravity, "I think you need to prepare."
"What?"
"Pass on the Martial Path, leave seeds."
Lu Ren stated calmly, "I've already established a fist technique sect, rest assured about this."
Ji Quanzhen nodded slightly, sighing, "Who knows what this world will turn into."
Lu Ren remained silent for a long time without speaking.
"By the way, do you have any more body refinement true skills?"
Upon hearing Lu Ren's words, Ji Quanzhen glanced sideways: "Haven't you thoroughly studied the True Martial Emperor Body that old man Li Changming gave you?"
Lu Ren didn't answer, just asked, "Is there?"
"Of course there is, a Taoist body refinement divine technique, Immortal Skin and Jade Bone, do you want it?"
At Lu Ren's current stage, practicing Immortal Skin and Jade Bone divine technique was entirely feasible.
Though it's about a Qi Refiner borrowing false to true cultivation, using powerful spiritual power to activate cells, enliven, and fortify them.
But the Path of Awakened is inherently progressing toward borrowing the false to cultivate the true, turning the void of realms into the most real existence.
Now Lu Ren is the best example, forcibly applying the profound Dharma Aspect, usually manifesting in the Spirit Realm, to the real world.
This is inherently a form of borrowing the false to cultivate the true, only Lu Ren took it to the extreme.
"Of course, I want it."
"Exchange it for your latest Ten Lands Great Accomplishment Golden Body Phoenix Bodhisattva Path."
"..."
Eventually, Lu Ren exchanged it, but unfortunately, Ji Quanzhen checked it and cursed.
"Damn, is this something humans can cultivate?"
Lu Ren pointed to himself, "Haven't you seen that I've cultivated it?"
"Do you count as human? Where are your wings?"
Lu Ren kept a straight face: "Naturally manifesting in the Spiritual Dharma Aspect."
