Chapter 1454: A Strange Place
A Strange Place
"Ladies, I believe you have a question to ask, and you want to know where the men and women who arrived some days ago have gone, don\'t you? You want to know if they chose the same path, don\'t you? Don\'t you?" Before Yue Shuang asked out the question, the host angel had interrupted her by asking out questions.
"That\'s right. You know! You have a foresight! You are indeed an incredible angel in this incredible world." Yue Shuang and Yue Han both nodded, and both stared at the host angels with hope and fever in their eyes.
"I don\'t know!"
The host angels gave them three cold words as a response, and their faces turned green all of a sudden.
"Our bonus… Money of one thousand years… is gone because of that big brother of yours!"
"From now on, we almost get nothing for the hard work we do for the next thousand years! One thousand years! We can\'t even take a break!"
"We want somebody to listen to our bitter complaints now. Do you really think we would bear listening to your unstoppable asking?"
"What the hell is wrong with this attitude here? Do you think you can be rude to people just because you can foresee things?" Yue Shuang and Yue Han were annoyed, so they both pursed their lips and left in anger. As they were walking away, their voices didn\'t stop though… "Two useless servants, greeting people and all that… What makes you think you are so great? When we become strong and influential here, we are going to come back and give you some serious lessons!"
The two ladies had gone. The two host angels wanted to cry, but no tears were present in their eyes.
"Are we to be blamed?"
"Is this reasonable?"
"We are victims in this case! You have no idea!"
Three months after, Wenren Chuchu arrived. Finally, she had come to the Human Realm Upon Heavens.
"May I ask, my dear lord angels…"
The two host angels were powerless when they heard the beginning of the lady\'s speech… They freaked out…
"Stop! Stop asking! We do not know anything! We don\'t have your answer!"
Wenren Chuchu frowned when she heard the desperate shout, and she blandly said, "Well, I do not know what exactly you two are responsible for, but I guess I should warn you about this out of my kindness.
"You two are the host angels here, which means you two are at least responsible for greeting and taking care of the cultivators who ascend to this world from the lower realms. Am I right?
"We are new to this world, so we are weak, so weak that you two might look down upon us. However, we are people in the Human Realm Upon Heavens after all. You got yourselves a job, so you should take it seriously. If you ask yourselves, do you find it appropriate to talk to me like that?
"I have just come to this world. I know my words don\'t matter to you. However, are you sure no one from lower realms has ever climbed up to the top positions in the Human Realm Upon Heavens? Where do you think these people start to climb? Weren\'t they just somebody didn\'t matter when they first set foot on this land?
"Do you think that we are never going to get success? Are you sure none of us will become a wonderful cultivator in this place who shocked the world?
"Fate doesn\'t bring people good luck or misfortune. When somebody said or do something, there is no turning back. Regret is always late. Arrogance comes from ignorance."
Wenren Chuchu\'s lesson had made the two host angels feel deeply embarrassed, and they had no words to say after that.
Wenren Chuchu was born a princess in the Kingdom of Lanfeng of the Land of Han-Yang. She was good at giving a speech and the art of language. That was why when she gave lessons, she was always right.
After a few righteous words, she had made the two host angels speechless in embarrassment.
"Since the two angels do not want to tell me what I ask, and I clearly know how weak and insignificant I am, I guess I should leave now. Angels, we will meet again." Wenren Chuchu spoke blandly and then left the place. Before she turned around and left, she gave the angels an extremely sharp stare.
Wenren Chuchu was no doubt a woman with strong power, and her incredible power came from her wisdom. After the ascending, she naturally turned into someone even better.
\'This is the real starting line of mine!\'
That was the word Wenren Chuchu told herself.
\'I have to change. I will change. I am going to be tough, be strong, be ruthless. I will build an empire for me and my master out of blood and power!\'
\'I can despise others, yet I won\'t allow anybody to despise me!\'
\'There will be a land of my own in the Human Realm Upon Heavens!\'
Wenren Chuchu left.
The two angels looked at Wenren Chuchu\'s back, and they didn\'t know what to say.
"It is not that we don\'t want to do our jobs… We were so led into troubles…"
"Come on, big sister… Do you really have to be so serious…"
"We two have lost one thousand years of money… What should we do…"
One year after.
Ning Biluo, Zhao Pingtian, and Liu Changjun all arrived one after another. The three of them asked the host angels the same questions, and this time the two angels pretended to be mutes, no sounds, nothing. They wouldn\'t cooperate, but they wouldn\'t get violent either, only shouted with abuse in their hearts.
\'What the hell… Did you form a delegation to ascend?\'
\'This is my first time… There actually are people who form a delegation to ascend to the Human Realm Upon Heavens…\'
\'What a weird world with all kinds of weird things.\'
\'Well, but none these people who seem to be in one delegation actually chose the same path… Oh, that couple did though. The others all chose their own paths.\'
\'Weird… These were all weirdos. The whole thing is weird. Everybody seemed to care about which path that missing weirdo chose in the beginning. As a matter of fact, even that weird man has gone missing, and they all had to just choose their own paths, it is still quite strange that none of them picked the same path with the others. How strange!\'
Which the two host angels had thought.
…
Cha-Eun Xiao had been traveling in this desolate place for one full month.
The experience in this month had brought him extremely important knowledge.
Nobody had ever talked to him during the month. There was nothing else he could see except the rocks and the spiritual qi in the air. There were even no signs of any beasts. Everything was new and dull, and he had to figure out everything on his own.
As a matter of fact, if he didn\'t have the Anti-starvation Dan Erhuo especially made for him, he would have been starved to death so many times!
During the one month, Cha-Eun Xiao had summed up a few important rules he should know in the Human Realm Upon Heavens.
\'First of all, the gravity force here is a hundred times as the gravity in the Qing-Yun Realm. Under this restraint, my cultivation power was utterly weakened.\'
\'Everybody will be weakened by the unusual gravity. That is fair.\'
\'Because of the unusual gravity, many things are extremely hard including the plants and rocks! Well, I guess it is just for me, or other people who are from the lower realms! In fact, maybe these things are not as tough as I think. Maybe I am just too weak!\'
\'Everything is included. The same rule applies to other things. It is reasonable to assume that the weapons in the Human Realm Upon Heavens must be incredibly powerful.\'
Cha-Eun Xiao stared at the Stars Sword in the Boundless Space, and he was suddenly enlightened. The Stars Sword was made from some really special material, and the unusual gravity force might be the reason why the material was so special.
As one thought appeared in his mind, another followed. Cha-Eun Xiao paid more attention to the Boundless Space and checked on the Monarch\'s Sword. He looked at the Monarch\'s Sword and murmured. "Old friend, you must work harder to get more improvement. Get used to the world we are in now, and I will find the best material for you to enhance you as soon as I can."
The Monarch\'s Sword slightly made some quivering sound, as if it was responding to Cha-Eun Xiao\'s words.
\'Why? Why would I come to this place after ascending to the Human Realm Upon Heavens? Is anybody want me to know that everything here is different from the Qing-Yun Realm?\'
\'It this really necessary? No matter where I go, I believe I can get the same conclusion, can\'t I? Oh, I guess the money in the Qing-Yun Realm isn\'t working in this world.\' Cha-Eun Xiao kept thinking. \'When I get to somewhere there are people, I have to find a way to earn some money.\'
\'I can survive the starvation in, but the others are very likely starving to death soon in this place!\'
He checked the materials and reserves in the Boundless Space again, and it didn\'t seem to be promising at all.
The Anti-starvation Dan in supreme level was great. One dan bead made him stay away from starvation for a few days. However, even supreme dan beads had limitations. After taking a few Anti-starvation Dan beads, Cha-Eun Xiao felt that it was getting less and less useful. He was confused, so he assumed the special environment in the Human Realm Upon Heavens had an influence on the dan beads. He had to eat more and more dan beads to keep himself away from hunger. In half a month, he only ate dan beads in the Boundless Space to survive this place.
There were tens of thousands of plants in the Boundless Space. Each of the plants was a valuable treasure in the Qing-Yun Realm. Cha-Eun Xiao never needed to worry about getting lower efficacy because he ate too much of the same thing continually!
He might have enough things to eat, but there was one problem he could not solve. The things in the Boundless Space were all valuable, but they didn\'t taste good…
Some of them; such as the Red Fruits, some other fruits and some roots of other plants didn\'t taste bad, but the others were all tasteless like wax. It was awful.
"Eating all my valuable materials like they were some food… This sounds great, but… Well… It really isn\'t…" Cha-Eun Xiao sadly touched his own face, which had become skinny. "I really… Really want to eat a steamed bun… Just one… It will be great…"
…
\'Congenital condition did make a great difference. A small piece of normal rock in the Human Realm Upon Heavens was extremely difficult for me to break. How unimaginably powerful on earth could the native cultivators in the Human Realm Upon Heavens be?\'
\'Cultivators in the Human Realm Upon Heavens must have been sorted into different ranks. What are the ranks in this martial world? How does each sect in this world control different places of the world? What do they use as their currency in circulation?\'
Cha-Eun Xiao had no answers to any of these questions. All he could do was to try to figure it out on his own, making his way out step by step.
Even though he was good at his movement technique, he could only go about one hundred miles in one full day. The low efficiency was shocking!
\'I have figured out the rules here. I know it is just like I think. But… It just doesn\'t feel right.\' Cha-Eun Xiao wiped the sweat on the forehead and thought. \'Why… How would this happen? Although I have just ascended here, this is still too unbelievable… It shouldn\'t be like this…\'
\'I feel like I am even worse than the ordinary people in the Land of Han-Yang… If all the people who ascend to the Human Realm Upon Heavens are all like this, then we are all just here to get ourselves killed! I am lucky to have a Boundless Space, and I have stored a lot of things to eat in it. Normal cultivators would never put a lot of food inside their spatial tools if they got one. Whoever has ascended to this world are all supreme in cultivation, which means they do not need to eat. There must be something wrong now!\'
Cha-Eun Xiao couldn\'t understand it.
In fact, the problem was easy to solve for other cultivators who ascended. The only thing they needed to do was to have an ablution in the wash pond. After the ablution in the wash pond, he would become a totally different person, and the old skins of him would be far left behind. Well, the young great lord Cha here was not going to get that chance again…
He had to live though, hadn\'t he? All he could do was to keep going out as far as he could, hoping that he could see some people in a village or something…
The most important thing he had to do now was to keep an eye on the sun to make sure he didn\'t go the wrong direction.
All in all, he used to be the most powerful one in the Land of Han-Yang, and then the most powerful cultivator in the Qing-Yun Realm, but now the most tragic man in this world!
"Holy hell… If all the people ascended to this place get the same situation as I do now, I don\'t think they can make it out of this place of hell. They should have starved to death very quickly…" Cha-Eun Xiao was a bit worried. "What troubles me most now is that… I don\'t know what is happening to Lian Lian and Bing\'er, and the others…"
Thinking of the others, especially the ladies, he had almost gone mad.
"Well, look at this guy. He is in such a hopeless situation, yet he still has time to worry about the others. How interesting!" Somewhere extremely far from where Cha-Eun Xiao was, in the middle of the stars river, a guy kept his mouth wide open, staring at Cha-Eun Xiao who had been traveling in difficulties. He didn\'t feel sorry for Cha-Eun Xiao. He was just happy as if he had made a perfect prank.
"I mean… I think this is enough. Come on. It is petty for you to interrupt into this…" Another man, who was handsome, looked at the first man with contempt and said, "All he did was just said a few words against you. Come on. Do you really have to throw him into the Godfiend Battle? He is just a beginner in this world who has just ascended…
"Look, listen to me. If he died in there, the chief is going to beat you up so hard. He won\'t kill you, but you will get smashed… Or you can just try it!"
The man who was gloating heard the words and got shocked. He murmured and said, "I didn\'t do anything serious. I just transferred him to another place. Simple trick. Isn\'t it? Besides, he has that Boundless Space and all those valuable materials… and he got that incredible good luck. I don\'t think he is going to die in there…"
The handsome man rolled up both eyes and stopped talking.
"I really don\'t feel like talking to this foolish guy anymore…"
"You don\'t think… You don\'t think he is going to die… Well, he still may die in there."
…
Cha-Eun Xiao had been traveling in the same place for two whole months. Finally, he began to know something about this world. Other than watching everything becoming more and more desolate, what he had seen, there was something strange showing up from time to time in his sight.
For example, he had seen glowing bones… and cracks from some unknown weapons…
All those strange signs gave Cha-Eun Xiao a conclusion…
"This place… It just looks so like an abandoned battlefield." Cha-Eun Xiao looked around and he was confused. "This is an ancient battlefield… which has been abandoned for who knows how many years. Otherwise, it won\'t be as desolated as this…"
Suddenly, he seemed to think of something again, and then he started to do something. He walked to a spot that was lower to the average height, and carefully checked the surroundings. And then he drew out his Stars Sword and started to dig on the ground.
He told himself how inefficient it could be to do this, so he knew what it was going to be like. However, he was still a bit disappointed when he started to dig with the Stars Sword, which used to be incredibly sharp and powerful. He was digging extremely slowly.
He had to confirm one thing that he had thought of in his mind.
\'It is impossible that there actually is no living thing in such a big area.\'
\'I have traveled for such a long time now. This area must be at least tens of thousands of miles wide. If there is nothing living in here…\'
\'Unless somebody did this. It must be a fight between some super powerful figures in this world to kill out all the living qi in this place… If that is true, the fight must be unimaginably tragic…\'
Cha-Eun Xiao was not even as strong as an ordinary man in this place. He kept sweating while working hard, digging bit by bit. He kept throwing small pieces of rock out of the pit he dug. Perhaps, the spot he chose was not his good luck. Everything he could find down the ground was a rock.
