On the way, Ye Xuan asked curiously, “Xiao Guan, what was that bomb you used just now?”
Qin Guan smiled faintly. “Are you interested?”
Ye Xuan nodded. “It was amazing!”
Qin Guan laughed. “That wasn’t even the ultimate version. We’re still upgrading it!”
Still upgrading!
Ye Xuan shook his head with a smile.
Qin Guan said softly, “Actually, these divine spirits probably have a technological path as well!”
Ye Xuan was puzzled. “What do you mean?”
Qin Guan explained, “I’ve studied them before. Many of their things don’t belong to the divine path, but to the technological path. So, I think they have powerful technology on their side.”
She paused, then added, “In fact, the technological path and the divine path lead to the same destination. The source of power is the same.”
Ye Xuan said solemnly, “What I’m more curious about is why they can come here through avatars while their main bodies stay in their world.”
Qin Guan smiled. “I’ve been researching that lately!”
Ye Xuan looked at Qin Guan and smiled. “You’re researching it?”
Qin Guan nodded. “I started when I arrived in the Xuzhen World! I even captured a divine spirit for study. My people should have some results by now!”
Ye Xuan gave a thumbs up. “Impressive!”
He realised this rich lady was truly formidable. Fortunately, she was on his side!
Qin Guan said seriously, “These divine spirits are different from other races. They have never treated people from our world as equals. In their eyes, our world is like a field of leeks, ready to be harvested when mature! So, there is no possibility of negotiation or reconciliation with them! Xiao Xuanzi, you must prepare yourself mentally for a tough battle!”
Ye Xuan nodded. “I understand!”
This enemy was different from others. In the end, previous enemies were from the same world!
But this time, these divine spirits were from another world entirely. Moreover, they looked down on them, considering them inferior beings.
Actually, compared to these divine spirits, the martial civilisation here was not weak. The reason they couldn’t win was mainly because the divine spirits had immortal bodies. Without immortality, he found these divine spirits quite pathetic!
Especially that previous Holy Lord, who completely lacked the demeanour and pride of a peerless powerhouse!
No wonder the Boundless Lord sneered at him. Even Ye Xuan looked down on such people!
It could be said that without immortal bodies, these divine spirits could not defeat the powerhouses of the Xuzhen World!
Qin Guan suddenly said, “You should have sensed it too! These so-called divine spirits are nothing like normal cultivators. Their strength doesn’t seem cultivated by themselves, so their dao hearts are very weak. Especially after seeing you could kill their main bodies, their behaviour was like… the trolls from my world!”
Ye Xuan was surprised. “Trolls?”
Qin Guan smiled faintly. “In our world, some people online can post comments in certain places through specific means, and others can’t find their real bodies. So, they act like divine spirits, wielding keyboards, criticising everything, thinking they are gods.”
She shook her head with a smile. “But offline, they are actually quite pathetic. These divine spirits are somewhat similar to them.”
Ye Xuan said solemnly, “You mean these divine spirits use a special method to hide their main bodies, then enter another world in a different way… Simply put, we are not in the same world as them, and in their view, their world is the real one, while ours is virtual?”
Qin Guan nodded. “Yes!”
Ye Xuan frowned!
Qin Guan continued, “However, it’s not that simple! Their world is definitely higher than ours, but our world is not virtual. It can only be said that their civilisation dimension is higher than ours. Moreover, in terms of cultivation, our martial civilisation here is not inferior to theirs. We couldn’t beat them before not because they were strong in combat, but because they could revive infinitely. So, as long as we solve this issue, they are not that terrifying. To solve it, we must enter their universe dimension, understand their world and universe, then find their weaknesses! Unfortunately… I can’t enter their world either!”
Ye Xuan suddenly opened his palm, and the Qingxuan Sword appeared in his hand. “With this sword, perhaps we can!”
The Qingxuan Sword could break all rules!
Qin Guan glanced at the Qingxuan Sword and shook her head. “I’m afraid not!”
Ye Xuan was puzzled. “Why?”
Qin Guan smiled. “Your sword can break rules, but you cannot. So, your sword might enter their world, but you cannot. It’s like two weaker people holding communication talismans. They chat through the talismans, and the sound reaches the other side, but the people themselves cannot fly over like the sound! Unless the person can break spatial rules and perform spacetime travel.”
Ye Xuan was silent for a moment, then nodded. “I understand!”
Qin Guan suddenly said, “We’re here!”
Ye Xuan looked into the distance. There was a strange spacetime gate far away!
After entering the spacetime gate, in an instant, Ye Xuan and Qin Guan arrived in front of a small town. The town was quite large, with at least tens of thousands of households. Behind the town was a large mountain, and on the mountain, several palaces were faintly visible!
Qin Guan pointed to the mountain. “The Dao Gate! There are several very strong people up there!”
Very strong!
Ye Xuan smiled. “If even you say they are very strong, they must be impressive!”
Qin Guan smiled faintly. “You are very strong now too!”
Ye Xuan laughed heartily.
After entering the town, Qin Guan led Ye Xuan to a college.
The college was not large, just a few bamboo houses, but it was very elegant. Inside the academy, a female teacher was giving a lesson to a group of children.
Ye Xuan looked at the woman. She wore a scholarly robe, with long hair draped over her shoulders, holding a book in her left hand and a ruler in her right.
At that moment, the woman suddenly put down the ancient book, then turned to look at Ye Xuan and Qin Guan. Upon seeing Qin Guan, she was slightly stunned, then smiled. “Miss Qin!”
Qin Guan smiled. “Zhiyan, I hope I’m not disturbing you?”
The woman named Zhiyan shook her head. “No!”
With that, she looked at the students in front of her and smiled. “Self-study!”
Hearing this, the students became extremely happy.
Zhiyan stood up and walked to Ye Xuan and Qin Guan. She looked at Ye Xuan. “Who is this?”
Qin Guan smiled. “Ye Xuan, the Lord of Humanity in this generation.”
Zhiyan stared at Ye Xuan. “The Eternal Dao Seal!”
Ye Xuan nodded. With that, he directly activated the Dao Seal, and it immediately appeared on his forehead.
Seeing Ye Xuan’s Dao Seal, Zhiyan’s brows furrowed at once. After a moment of silence, she said softly, “He chose you!”
Ye Xuan nodded slightly. “Yes!”
Zhiyan looked at Ye Xuan. “Why did he choose you?”
Ye Xuan thought for a moment, then said, “Perhaps he had no better choice!”
The owner of the Great Path Brush: “…”
Zhiyan shook her head with a smile. “Young Master Ye really knows how to joke! Your strength is very great, and your swordsmanship forms its own school. You are one of the rare peerless powerhouses in this world! What I mean is, by choosing you, does he hope you will fight the divine spirits, or rebuild the order of the Dao Gate?”
Ye Xuan smiled. “Both!”
Zhiyan nodded slightly. “I understand!”
She paused, then added, “This place has been peaceful for countless ages, and those of us living here do not want to get involved in external matters.”
Ye Xuan nodded. “I can understand!”
Zhiyan looked at Ye Xuan. Ye Xuan smiled. “Next time the divine spirits come to attack here, Miss, please remember this: I, Ye Xuan, also dislike meddling in others’ affairs. At that time, please fight the divine spirits yourselves with the people here!”
Zhiyan stared at Ye Xuan without speaking.
Ye Xuan turned to Qin Guan and smiled. “Xiao Guan, let’s go!”
Qin Guan nodded. As the two were about to leave, Zhiyan suddenly said, “Young Master Ye, won’t you protect this place?”
Ye Xuan glanced at Zhiyan. “None of my bloody business!”
Zhiyan: “…”
