Biên tập viên: EndlessFantasy Translation
"Qi Zixiao…"
The Saint recited in his heart for a brief moment before his eyes looked even more determined.
"So what if you've gained the General Outline of the World's Immortal Arts? You're destined to lose in the First Rank battle!"
Next, he joined in the ranks of the people in the scripture chamber's first floor, searching for the Dusty Divine Arts.
With this, the incident caused an even bigger uproar.
The Saintess and Saint had successively appeared to search through, proving the existence of the Dusty Divine Arts in the scripture chamber's first floor. There was even more than one!
After all, the discovery of the Cloud Smoke Blade previously had caused many disciples to turn green with envy.
Together with news of Saintess Qi Zixiao unearthing the General Outline of the World's Immortal Arts and leaving with great satisfaction, the disciples went wild.
The scripture chamber was now exploding with occupants!!!
***
By then, Lin Fan had returned to the Saintess Chamber.
He had no idea that a ruckus was happening outside, even more so oblivious to the gossips about him obtaining the General Outline of the World's Immortal Arts. He could only feel his back covered in a cold sweat as he closed the door.
"Thankfully nothing happened…"
Lin Fan sighed. "I still don't know enough about the Violet Chateau. Although it was a little reckless, the gains are obvious."
He flipped open the aged book, General Outline of the World's Martial Arts to see many traditional Chinese characters staring back at him.
"This book is quite mysterious. It looks like something ancient but the insides are clear without damage."
"But this is a little too much!"
The combination of traditional words, classical writing, and various pulse and acupuncture points made Lin Fan's head explode when he scanned it briefly.
There were no basics!
After simply flipping through, he can conclude that this book was indeed unique, at least from Lin Fan's point of view.
Once, there was a senior of the sect who during his trial of calamity, felt uncertain of overcoming it so he tried searching for inspiration from various aspects to improve himself.
Hence, he went on to learn about martial arts that were practiced by mortals and wrote down a few famous and impressive combat techniques.
According to Lin Fan's assumption, this should be better than the Nine Scroll Manual.
"Maiden's Sutra… Pfft, is there such a thing in this world?"
"Rohan Style. Only a monk can draw out its full potential, otherwise, it's futile to learn it? This won't do…"
"Ultimate Supremacy Style? Holy sh*t, isn't this a skill from the Wandering Faction? Awesome!"
At this, Lin Fan started reading earnestly.
Forget the others, just the name of this martial arts style was cool enough!
However, after carefully reading it, he realized that it wasn't the Wandering Group's Ultimate Supremacy Style. They only had the same name and this skill wouldn't let him regain youth every thirty years.
Yet, the similarity was that this style was just as domineering. It was the strongest technique in the martial arts world with no competition.
"You'll do!"
Lin Fan had decided.
Was it hard?
So be it!
He would remember it even if it meant memorizing.
Thankfully with Qi Zixiao's blessed body, he was brimming with energy and his memory was much better. The remaining two days was enough for him to memorize the Ultimate Supremacy Style…

Back to the modern-day world, inside a rented house.
Qi Zixiao was sitting cross-legged on the sofa, bored. Her expression was still as an ancient well. There was a cup of braised beef noodles in front of her.
"This guy!!!"
Suddenly, she gritted her teeth.
"Is he toying me?"
Staring at the two phones beside her, anger rose from all directions. She even wanted to simply throw them out!
Having transmigrated here for half a day, she had first finished watching all the videos had Lin Fan left for her, and then spent some time walking around the house and the area nearby.
After all, wanting to gain knowledge of an unfamiliar environment was a reflex of living creatures.
After that…
She had wanted to turn on the phone, to understand this 'mystifying' little box, but… it's a long story!
Right here, right now.
Could she train?
She could not.
Could she go outside? In the video Lin Fan had left her, he said it was best not to go too far away from the house. Although she was not required to fully comply, Qi Zixiao felt it better to comply just a little.
After all, her body was currently being controlled by that guy.
What if she 'misbehaved' so that guy did the same as well?
Hence, she was extremely bored right now!
So bored that she opened up another cup of instant noodles and was now waiting for it to cook for three minutes…
"Oh, right."
An idea suddenly came to her. "He said I could watch this television, right?"
Cultivators during ascension had frightening memory abilities. Even if she only watched the video once, she could easily turn on the television.
"This is… those so-called advertisements, right?"
Next!
"I have a huge fish pond at home. Are you willing to become my girlfriend?
"..."
Next!
"Huan Huan, listen to me…"
Also next!
In one minute she had changed more than ten channels. Qi Zixiao frowned slightly.
How dull.
To her, these programs were all meaningless. Modern romance? Ancient palace harem struggles? Teen idol dramas?
None of them were meaningful…
Until…
"Nature is unkind. Everything before them is merely sacrificial animals!"
"..."
"Xiao Fan!!!"
"..."
Here come the special effects!
A group of friars flew around in swords on the television, fighting, and slaughtering.
"Finally something decent. But their abilities seem a little weak…"
Although there were hints of disdain, she stopped changing channels. She even managed to continue watching and found a tiny sense of identity.
Wasn't it just right for a cultivator to watch a drama on cultivating immortality?
Qi Zixiao sat cross-legged on the sofa, eating instant noodles as she watched the drama. At the same time, she felt perplexed.
"There are no signs of Spirit Qi in this world, at least not here. Meaning, this would all be false."
"But then, why would these television programs have cultivators?"
"That guy said everything on television was fake, but this drama actually shows bits of cultivation techniques, so… how did they know about immortality?"
"Could this cultivation sect, the Azure Order, truly exist? Or perhaps this world is somehow connected to the immortal world."
"If this is the case, I can request information from that guy. If I can enter the immortal realm, that would be a huge advantage for me…"
After keeping this in mind, Qi Zixiao began her life as a dweeb by watching television dramas.
At night, when the television was out of transmission, she took out a pen and paper to write down a message for Lin Fan…
As to why she didn't record a video with the phone?
It's a long story…!
Dawn on the third day.
Qi Zixiao got up early, ate a bowl of instant noodles, and then… left another sentence on the 'message book'.
Next, she started watching dramas again.
The Azure Order was going to battle, facing imminent danger.
Soon, Lu Xueqi came forward during a critical moment with her sword gleaming in her hands.
"Let heaven's wrath turn into lightning, let glory lead my blade to victory!!!"
Boom!
Thunder rumbled in the skies!
And this bolt of lightning seemed to strike Qi Zixiao's heart.
