Romance Game: Embrace of the Inhuman

Chapter 271: Celestial Origin Realm


The power of [Heaven's Fear] mostly manifests in the erosion and distortion of matter through negative energy.

Life, when eroded by this power, will naturally trigger all negative traits, transforming into twisted monsters.

From a certain perspective, it's similar to pollution, but far more terrifying.

It is a force of complete destruction.

It will chain together countless living beings and matter, leading them into the abyss.

Fortunately, for now, there are only some scattered seeds of it in this world.

As long as the spread is contained, there won't be any incidents.

Lin Qianxuan observed Han Tao's future.

He planned a good growth path for Han Tao.

In this young man's infinite possibilities, there exists the potential to save the world.

Or rather, anyone chosen by him has the potential to save the world.

However, Han Tao is relatively easier to shape.

Beside Lin Qianxuan, Ling'Er held a fish, turning it into a small golden bird.

The bird appeared peaceful in her hand, without struggle.

Then Ling'Er fed it several nuts.

These were something she had fished from the water, known as Bodhi Seeds.

In the ancient world, Bodhi Seeds were rare Treasures of Heaven and Earth, with one seed able to increase Inner Qi cultivation by sixty years.

But nowadays, the Vajra Bodhi Tree is extinct, so naturally, such treasures no longer exist.

The small bird ate all six Bodhi Seeds under Ling'Er's nurturing.

It absolutely cannot digest these Bodhi Seeds, not even one; according to usual circumstances, it would only digest a small portion, with most returning to nature and a very slim chance of growing into a second Bodhi Tree.

And this was also within the future Lin Qianxuan foresaw.

Ling'Er released the bird, which flapped its wings and soared off; next, it would carry the seeds all over the world, and those seeds with only a one-in-a-million survival rate would all sprout and grow, turning into towering trees hundreds of meters high within a year or two.

But even that is not enough.

These resources are still too slow for human development.

Unable to contend with the power of [Heaven's Fear].

In Lin Qianxuan's [Eyes of the Muddled Heaven], endless possibilities were revealed, even simulating the destinies of many people to thousands of years in the future.

The fastest growth paths were arranged by him.

Among them was Han Tao.

A Bodhi Seed happened to fall into a flower pot on his balcony.

The future him would use it to form a faction, researching a medicine called "Bodhi Pill."

It is a powerful drug capable of increasing Inner Qi by a century in one go.

Lin Qianxuan released some fish fry into Shuangyu Lake.

These were special fish that existed in ancient times, rapidly multiplying and almost indifferent to environments; consuming their meat heavily also helps reshape one's root bone. Due to excessive fishing, they became extinct.

Now, Lin Qianxuan has restored them.

Having done all this, Lin Qianxuan stood up and put away his fishing rod.

Ling'Er also stood up with him.

"Are we leaving? Not doing more?" Ling'Er asked.

"It's enough." Lin Qianxuan smiled.

Immediately, he activated the World Shuttle, and the next moment, the two of them traversed time and space, directly vanishing from the spot.

The next day.

Han Tao, as usual, brought delicacies to the place where Lin Qianxuan and Ling'Er had been fishing.

However, the two had disappeared.

Only a book titled "Dharma Image Technique" and a Wide-Backed Wind-Listening Blade, about two meters long, were left there.

...

...

Lin Qianxuan traversed time and space, glimpsing the future development of the world Han Tao inhabited.

In countless arduous struggles, Han Tao led human civilization to repel the power of [Heaven's Fear] again and again.

He even broke through to the Dao Realm in that harsh environment, finally achieving a balance with the power of [Heaven's Fear].

And this is already the best outcome.

The World Shuttle broke open the Chaotic Space-Time; Lin Qianxuan saw worlds within the chaotic bubbles, floating here like bubbles.

Lin Qianxuan observed, ultimately choosing an enormous bubble whose boundaries he could hardly discern, allowing the World Shuttle to carry them inside.

Silently, they descended into that world.

.....

[Celestial Origin Realm].

Lin Qianxuan and Ling'Er descended and immediately felt a vast will sweep over them.

That was the "Heavenly Dao" of this world.

The World Shuttle had the ability to conceal presence; theoretically, even in the Great Thousand World, as long as it doesn't surpass the Dragon Head too much, they wouldn't be detected.

But now they were discovered.

This can only mean one thing.

This world is much stronger than the Dragon Head.

Even the Dragon Head cannot compare?

The Endless Chaos is indeed vast, even at the level of the Dragon Head, it's probably very insignificant.

The vast will didn't linger too long; after a brief sweep, it left.

It seemed to judge Lin Qianxuan and them as harmless, thus not paying much attention.

Indeed, even Lin Qianxuan as a True Immortal, in its eyes, is still "harmless."

Light of destiny flickered in Lin Qianxuan's eyes, countless information mastered by him.

This world is vast, so vast that Lin Qianxuan temporarily cannot observe it all.

There are Great Dao Level powerhouses, and there doesn't seem to be a shortage.

Even those stronger than him are in abundance.

"This is also an Endless True Realm." Ling'Er assessed.

"Just like the universe on Earth?" Lin Qianxuan asked.

"The same," Ling'Er nodded.

The Endless True Realm, as the name implies, is a world whose edges cannot be glimpsed, hence called the Endless True Realm.

This kind of world is very special; it expands exponentially every moment.

That's why it's called endless.

No wonder the Heavenly Dao considers a True Immortal like him as harmless.

Even if he were to destroy material across billions of light-years, to such a world, it's not much, as it can instantly absorb material converted from chaos beyond that amount.

And it's only such an endless world that can give birth to a "Dao Fruit."

In the wide expanse of chaos, Earth is not an exception.

It's just more notable for containing Dao Fruits.

However, whether this world has already birthed a Dao Fruit or whether any creature has obtained it remains a mystery.

Lin Qianxuan wasn't particularly curious.

He just wanted to hide here, giving himself some time to develop, and not let those few supremes find him easily.

...

Xuan Country.

Long City.

This place has a societal environment similar to ancient Xuan Country.

But compared to ancient Xuan Country, the people here live much more abundantly.

This land is filled with energy particles beneficial to all things.

Their crops yield exceptionally; producing thousands of pounds per acre is no problem, making Long City, with its city-like structure, home to over a million people.

These energy particles can also be utilized by people, allowing evolution within themselves.

This energy is referred to as "Primordial Energy."

The Primordial Energy of heaven and earth is somewhat similar to Spiritual Energy but also very different.

It doesn't have the enlightening and awakening effects of Spiritual Energy; it merely enhances the various basic attributes of living creatures significantly.

Therefore, in this world, giant beasts several zhang tall are quite common.

Lin Qianxuan once caught a more than three-meter-long fish in the Xiang River outside the city.

It's said that there used to be a Flood Dragon in this river, but it was caught barehanded by the city lord of Long City, who skinned and deboned it to prepare a complete dragon feast for the entire city.

Upon hearing this story, Lin Qianxuan couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

Why are there so many negative portrayals of dragons?

These dragons should really be expelled from the dragon race!

No, a Flood Dragon doesn't even count as a dragon.

On the fifth day of Lin Qianxuan's settled fishing in this place, a figure appeared near the pavilion where he and Ling'er were fishing.

The person had sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes, with a burly build; his Qi and Blood emanated so strongly that he seemed like a furnace.

With him around, the surroundings were noticeably warmer by a few degrees.

He was the city lord of Long City, Sheng Yong.

He came ostensibly to fish, but more so to inquire about Lin Qianxuan and Ling'Er's identities.

Since Lin Qianxuan and Ling'Er arrived in Long City, they rooted themselves by the river, fishing day and night.

After several observations, he couldn't detect any extraordinary aura from the two.

But he felt there were too many things off, so he came personally to test them.

Next to Lin Qianxuan, he soon caught one fish after another.

However, on Lin Qianxuan and Ling'Er's side, their hooks seemed not to budge.

Sheng Yong examined their fishing rods.

They were just ordinary rods, incomparable to his own, made from refined steel, with which he had pulled a several hundred-pound demon beast from the river.

Thinking it over, Sheng Yong struck up a conversation.

"Young brother, you don't seem to be having good luck today. I've caught quite a few; if you want, I can share some with you," Sheng Yong said.

"I'll take that little red fish of yours then," Lin Qianxuan said.

It was the most valuable fish Sheng Yong had caught.

Seeing Lin Qianxuan wasn't holding back, Sheng Yong didn't go back on his word, directly placing the fish into Lin Qianxuan's basket.

The fish disappeared instantly upon entering the basket, causing Sheng Yong to pause in surprise.

The basket was just a facade; it was actually a space treasure.

"Young brother, you two have come recently, correct? I haven't seen you in Long City before," Sheng Yong probed.

"Just arrived," Lin Qianxuan nodded.

"What is the relationship between you two...?" Sheng Yong asked.

"Dao partners cultivating together," Lin Qianxuan introduced simply.

Sheng Yong seemed to grasp something.

He then asked for Lin Qianxuan and Ling'Er's names, but Ling'Er didn't answer, and Lin Qianxuan passingly said "Fisherman."

Sheng Yong didn't delve much further, returning with the made-up name "Snake Catcher" to Lin Qianxuan.

Lin Qianxuan glanced sidelong at him, eyes full of amusement.

Snake Catcher?

One can only imagine his reaction if he revealed his True Dragon Form, enough to cover the sky.

While chatting idly with Lin Qianxuan, perhaps out of a desire to probe, Sheng Yong discussed cultivation with Lin Qianxuan.

The cultivation systems of the surrounding hundred-odd nations were very rudimentary; at least from Lin Qianxuan's current perspective, they were highly inefficient.

So for the few topics Sheng Yong brought up, Lin Qianxuan dismissed them all.

"Incorporating the Primordial Energy of heaven and earth into the body has been a rightful method since ancient times. How can you say it's abandoning the essentials?" Sheng Yong frowned.

"The method of utilization is too crude," Lin Qianxuan shook his head. "The human body is interconnected; as long as the core point is found and refined with Primordial Energy, other systems can naturally be driven—whether focusing on breathing to strengthen the lungs first, or blood circulation to strengthen the heart, fortify the marrow..."

Sheng Yong found it somewhat reasonable but still frowned, saying, "But to carefully control Primordial Energy, at the very least, requires the birth of Spiritual Thought, right?"

"You can use medication to aid, or first visualize to temper the Spirit. Overall, this approach is far more efficient than crude cultivation methods. The main issue is being overly protective of perceived small techniques, hoarding them instead of sharing, so knowledge is difficult to propagate..." Lin Qianxuan shook his head.

After discussing cultivation with Lin Qianxuan for half a day, Sheng Yong felt he benefited greatly, but he became even more confused about Lin Qianxuan and Ling'Er's backgrounds, showing even more interest.

Meanwhile, Lin Qianxuan also caught a rare big fish.
