"Brothers, I don't know why, but suddenly I want to join the army!"

"Yeah, those monsters are terrifying, but I have more faith in our warriors. With such equipment, we could even kill a god if needed!"

"The last time, that giant—had we not used a nuclear bomb—it wouldn't have shown off at all. Otherwise, a big mushroom cloud would have sent it to the skies."

"What are monsters? All fears come from a lack of firepower. As long as we have strong enough weapons, we can easily deal with them!"

"Veterans, if there's a war, we will return when summoned!"

"..."

Online, many viewers in the livestream room typed barrage comments, instantly elevating the atmosphere to its peak.

On TV, the program continued to play, and Chu Xiaoxiao had already followed the crew into the immortal mountain area.

They first rested for a night in a small village nearby.

In the evening, Chu Xiaoxiao didn't forget to take the cameraman and went house to house to inquire about the mountain.

Among them, Liu Lu, being a villager, appeared on screen a few times to describe the scenes when the immortal mountain first appeared.

Indeed, she had once been a broadcaster. Though not the most professional, her way of expressing was satisfactory compared to the other villagers.

"Mystical Mountain Exploration" is a semi-documentary exploration program, and the interviewed villagers are real local farmers, along with many exploration segments.

Although these exploration segments occupy most of the show's runtime,

because they involve the currently hottest topic of Transcendents, they didn't cause boredom among the viewers; instead, they watched with great interest.

Soon, as the program crew entered the immortal mountain, the whole episode reached its second half, the most intense part.

In the immortal mountain, giant trees blocked out the sky but lay unevenly on the ground.

The land seemed to have been plowed over and over, making walking extremely difficult.

With one slight mistake, one could fall into the deep holes around, tens of meters deep.

Without Chu Xiaoxiao explaining, people could guess what this was all about, likely due to the appearances of the giant.

A giant a thousand meters tall is indeed shocking from afar, but it lacks the immersive experience.

Now, seeing the state of the immortal mountain up close, just the scars on the ground could bring to mind the destruction that once took place here.

The camera shifted to Liu Hai and Wang Zinan.

Both gulped in unison, their faces showing fear and dread.

This scene was magnified by the camera and presented to everyone.

In empathy, many understood more clearly the horror of the place.

As the group ventured further, strange growls began echoing through the forest.

It seemed like hordes of demons were lurking around, creating an extremely tense atmosphere.

Of course, these so-called sounds were added in post-production.

After the Tree of Life vines and the giant's rampage, few creatures remained in this place.

Most of those here now were probably birds that came later.

Suddenly, a photographer accidentally stumbled, falling into a bottomless pit.

This scene was perfectly captured by another camera nearby, shown to all viewers.

"Ah!"

Lu Junjie's wife couldn't help but scream, instinctively covering her eyes, not daring to see the terrifying scene about to unfold.

Even Lu Junjie himself was sweating, his eyes fixed on the TV screen, heart leaping to his throat.

The next moment, a figure darted out from the dim woods, landing several quick steps, shooting out like a swift arrow, instantly reaching the photographer, pushing him back up.

"He, appeared!"

Lu Junjie gaped, watching the scene in disbelief.

Such swift movements, such abilities akin to flying over roofs and walls, saved a falling adult male with just one hand.

Such posture, such strength—there could only be one possibility!

Lu Junjie's face gradually flushed, then he shouted out the three words he'd long held in his heart.

"Transcendent!"

At the same time, everyone who saw this scene erupted.

Online comments peaked, making the screen difficult to see.

"Oh my! Oh my god! That's not some cultivator, definitely not a cultivator! Look at her attire! She's clearly a modern person!"

"A Transcendent! A Transcendent really appeared! There truly are Transcendents among us humans!"

"Not necessarily. Who says a cultivator must dress in ancient clothing? Can't they keep up with the times?"

"No, no! Look quickly! There's a logo on her clothes! And words... Hidden Dragon!! Are they official personnel?"

"Guys, this is definitely official! Remember at the beginning of the program in the hospital? Many people were dressed just like her!"

"Yes! Although I didn't see it clearly then, seeing this figure now, I'm sure their outfits are the same—a standard combat uniform!"

"I don't care if they're Transcendents or cultivators, I only know that this lady is just too cool. I'm already in love with her, what do I do? It's a pity she's wearing a mask, can't see her face... But a lady with such strength must be on a goddess level!"

"..."

The barrage in the livestream room is always the fastest thing in the world.

The person who saved the day was, of course, Hei Mei of the Hidden Dragon Special Action Team. Though the footage was accidental, Ma You edited it into the final cut.

Next came Hei Mei's conversation with Chu Xiaoxiao and others, straightforward and without any fuss.

The crew also learned that this person was the Transcendent quietly protecting them during the exploration. They were all extremely excited.

This was the first official public appearance of Transcendents on the human side.

As the star of this broadcast, Hei Mei's name was immediately remembered by everyone.

Abroad, many watching the live broadcast wore solemn expressions.

Director Lune of the Hurricane Bureau naturally was among them.

"I knew it... So, Transcendents have appeared in Huaxia too... And it seems they have more than just one, possibly forming a group."

Recalling the fleeting figures on the screen, his heart rippled uncontrollably.

Remembering the Hurricane Bureau he painstakingly pulled up, only finding one human with Extraordinary Power despite extensive efforts,

In comparison, it was miles behind the opponent.

He knew, in such a special time, he must seize every opportunity to lead ahead of other countries.

If one step is delayed, it will lead to falling behind each step, eventually being left out entirely.

Lune didn't want to see such a scene happen to himself, feeling incredibly urgent, like a fire burning within him.

Meanwhile, the phone on his desk rang, and upon answering, a middle-aged man's voice came through.

"Director Lune, after our discussions, we now approve your proposed lunar mission. We hope you can find the results you're looking for..."

Lune, hearing this, finally showed a smile on his previously worried face.

"Councilman Jes, thank you for your support. We believe we will find the answer in this lunar mission..."
