Chapter 36: Spiritual Energy Recovery
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
All the sealed Tianwu villagers, regardless of whether they were from righteous or evil sects, had one thing in common—when their Cultivation Base reached the peak of the Ascension Realm, they attempted to ascend to the Immortal World.
From the information obtained by the Illusion-Breaking Divine Eyes, it could be seen that the quasi-Sage of the Confucian School would suppress anyone who wanted to ascend to the Immortal World.
For this reason, Zhao Hao had even personally experimented with it. As expected, after opening the gate to the Immortal World, that terrifying existence had killed him in one strike.
Zhao Hao couldn't help but mutter to himself, "The person who attacked should be that quasi-Sage of the Confucian School. But why does he interfere and not allow anyone to ascend?
"Also, why were those people from the Tianwu Village only sealed when they ascended, while I was killed when I ascended?
"What's behind the gate to the Immortal World?
"Since there's a quasi-Sage of the Confucian School, why isn't there a single book of Confucianism in the entire cultivation world?"
Everything was too illusory. Just the information that Zhao Hao had gathered wasn't enough to deduce what was going on.
Although there were still six more days before he transmigrated, Zhao Hao was already nervous.
If the world he transmigrated to really did not allow him to ascend, if he did not find a solution, he would be trapped there forever. Although Ascension experts could easily live for hundreds of thousands of years, he would be transmigrated there. How could he be willing to live with so many supreme talents there?
Thinking of this, Zhao Hao did not waste any more time. There were still two more hours before he could use the simulator again.
Zhao Hao sat down cross-legged again and began to cultivate the Tao Te Ching.
At that moment, Zhao Hao's entire body seemed to be covered in a layer of golden light. A huge amount of spiritual power was absorbed with every breath he took into his body.
At the same time, at the northern foot of the Lishan Mountain in Xia country…
Between the towering mountains, streams of evil energy began to spread out from underground. The originally lush forests and vibrant mountains were all turned into dead lands in a few breaths. All of their vitality was absorbed.
A magnificent city was slowly revealing its true appearance deep underground.
There was a huge plaque with the words "Xianyang" written on it above the city.
The current era was full of bizarre mysteries. Even the government officials did not dare to open the ancient emperors' tombs easily.
Basically, every ancient emperor's tomb contained a powerful and strange existence.
Fortunately, the bizarre beings in these mausoleums were very stable, and they had never come out to wreak havoc on the human world.
However, today, the mausoleum of Emperor Shi, which was the most important mausoleum among all the emperors, suddenly had a change. Countless evil auras gushed out, and the staff in charge of observing this place discovered it at the first moment. They sent out one report after the other.
The captain of the Supernatural Special Forces (SSF), Ma Zhuisheng, personally headed to the mausoleum of Emperor Shi to check it out. Then, he ordered all the superpowered people in the country to rush to the mausoleum of Emperor Shi within a day, no matter what method they used.
As all the superpowered people in the country had records in the government, it was very convenient to contact them. Even if the phone could not be reached, they could still send someone to inform the people based on their itinerary.
The news spread quickly. The troops from the mainland arrived at Mount Li one after another. One by one, the superpowered people flew by themselves or took a plane to rush to the mausoleum of Emperor Shi.
Quietly, the government had already entered a Level-1 state of combat readiness.
...
Zhao Hao, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, slowly opened his eyes. After two hours of cultivation, his cultivation had once again increased by a small realm, reaching the mid-stage Golden Core.
"Strange? How did the spiritual energy in the world suddenly increase?"
Zhao Hao couldn't help but wonder. In the human world, spiritual energy was so thin that even if one worked hard to cultivate for a few hours, they wouldn't be able to gather too much spiritual energy. However, after just two hours of cultivation, the amount of spiritual energy absorbed was hundreds of times more than before.
After carefully examining the spiritual energy fluctuations in the surroundings, Zhao Hao was sure that the level of spiritual energy in the world had increased.
"Could it be? Spiritual energy recovery? No way!"
Zhao Hao instantly felt his entire body tremble. The spiritual energy recovery was definitely a good thing for both cultivators and superpowered people.
However, Zhao Hao didn't have a trace of joy in his heart at this moment. Instead, he was filled with great fear.
There were many strange worlds in this world. The recovery of spiritual energy was a great thing for humans. Was it not a good thing for the strange beings?
Zhao Hao was currently a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator. When comparing his strength, he was only a level-six or seven special ability user. How could he guarantee his safety?
At this moment, Zhao Hao's phone rang. He picked it up and found that there were already more than ten missed calls, all of them from Bai Bing,
Looking at the caller ID, Zhao Hao frowned. Although he didn't want to pick it up, he knew that Bai Bing could definitely find him, so he picked it up.
"Hello?"
"There's an order from the higher-ups. All the superpowered people in the country must reach the mausoleum of Emperor Shi within a day. Hurry up. I still need to inform others."
Bai Bing hurriedly informed Zhao Hao and hung up the phone.
Zhao Hao was stunned at first, but then he opened his phone and received a message from the Spirit Brigade. It was the same as Bai Bing's description.
"As expected, the moment the spiritual energy was restored, something went wrong in the mausoleum of Emperor Shi?"
Zhao Hao's eyes narrowed slightly, and his brain began to work rapidly.
From what he remembered, the people worshipped in the temples and martial temples were all talented in cultivation. If they could cultivate in that era, even if their cultivation wasn't high, they would still be at the Incarnation stage. It wouldn't be a problem for them to live for a few thousand years.
The Qin Dynasty was less than 2,000 years away.
Thinking about it carefully, Zhao Hao suddenly felt that the mausoleum of Emperor Shi was extremely terrifying.
"What should I do? Should I go? There's a high chance that I'll stay there..."
For a moment, Zhao Hao was caught in a dilemma. It wasn't that Zhao Hao didn't love his country, but he knew that there was a huge crisis and that he would transmigrate in a few days. Everyone had to weigh the pros and cons.
However, he chose to fight for the greater good over selfish motives in the end. He would die without regrets for his family and country.
Zhao Hao directly flew into the sky and rushed toward Mount Li.
Soon, Zhao Hao landed and took a taxi to the airport. He had no choice. He was lost and didn't know where to go.
When he arrived at the airport in Dali, the government had already opened a direct flight line. Zhao Hao got on the plane. At a glance, he saw that the dozens of people on the plane were all superpowered people.
With Zhao Hao's mid-stage Golden Core cultivation, he was naturally considered a powerhouse among this group of people. Under Zhao Hao's senses, only the white-haired old man at the front had a strength similar to his.
