Chapter 280 - 271: The Difference Between Lucky E and Lucky Billion!

Chapter 280: Chapter 271: The Difference Between Lucky E and Lucky Billion!

"The Abyss...consider it a part of the Heavenly Dao that has been contaminated."

Grandpa Ju remained silent for a long time, and just when Liang Yi thought he would not answer, he suddenly spoke.

"You needn’t ask more about the specifics from me, as to how the Heavenly Dao could be contaminated, I am also unclear. I am even more perplexed than you!"

Seeing that Liang Yi intended to continue asking, Grandpa Ju quickly slapped Liang Yi on the head with his paw.

Liang Yi naturally did not mind Grandpa Ju’s behavior, but such a loss of composure from Grandpa Ju was rare.

Perhaps recalling some unpleasant memories, Grandpa Ju appeared listless for a while, lethargically resting on Liang Yi’s head and swaying his tail behind him.

This continued until Liang Yi brought him to the teleportation array of the Purple Cloud Sect.

Around the transmission array stood several very tall rectangular pale blue crystals, densely engraved with complex and arcane curses connected to the circular array on the ground, which could make one feel slightly dizzy if looked at too much.

"Why are we here? It can’t be used yet, meow?" Grandpa Ju’s chubby paw pads directly stepped on the array.

"It can’t be used now, but that might change soon." Liang Yi smiled mysteriously and found a cool spot to sit down.

"What next? What are we going to do?" Grandpa Ju squatted next to Liang Yi, swinging his tail.

"Wait."

Xuanzhou, Immortal Dynasty, in comparison to the usual bustling Qingliang City.

A pale purple ethereal starlight fell from the sky, and after being identified by the array at Qingliang City’s protective outer wall as no problem, it was let through. Such communication happens every moment, whether being sent out or coming in.

In the Mystic Bureau, as Wu Yangshuo who was busily dealing with the sudden surge in the number of Abnormal People, his expression suddenly changed, he gestured and a streak of light shot from the horizon into his hand.

"It’s young brother Liang Yi, I wonder what it could be." Upon sensing Liang Yi’s presence, Wu Yangshuo felt a bit strange, not expecting to receive a message from Liang Yi at this moment.

After reading the message with his Divine Sense, Wu Yangshuo looked even more intrigued, his expression turning peculiar.

"The Purple Cloud Sect from the previous epoch wants to reopen its Mountain Gate and even recruit Abnormal People as disciples? Hmm??"

Wu Yangshuo was stunned by the news from Liang Yi; as a high-level official in the Mystic Bureau who managed the world’s information, he naturally knew of the emergence of the Purple Cloud Sect. The base of the Taoist Sect was located at the junction of Xuanzhou Immortal Dynasty, Sword Cleanse Heavenly Pool, and Complete Heaven Sect, and that territory was divided among them.

The major disturbance caused by the Purple Cloud Sect previously was naturally known to Wu Yangshuo through intelligence.

He initially thought that the Purple Cloud Sect would keep a low profile for a while before gradually starting to restore its strength, but now not much time had passed since the closure of the Purple Cloud Phoenix Extreme Secret Realm, and they were already planning to open their doors and widely recruit disciples, including Abnormal People?

"What’s so special about these Abnormal People besides their weird Undying Bodies?" Wu Yangshuo was a bit curious.

As the leading disciple of the Banished Immortal, Liang Yi certainly wasn’t a fool, but what exactly did he value so much about these Abnormal People?

"Never mind, this favor still needs to be returned." Although Wu Yangshuo was considered smart among Body Cultivation Martial Artists, his intellect had its limits. Unable to figure it out, he let it go.

A communication was sent out, and an arrest officer came to receive it.

"Go into the city, find Bai Xiaomo and Ju Xiaobei, these two Abnormal People, and bring them here."

"Yes!"

Wu Yangshuo then remembered the second thing Liang Yi had asked him for help with, and took out from the Communication Talisman an ornate rune resembling array patterns, wrapped in a special encryption by the Immortal Dynasty, and handed it to the arrest officer.

"Also, take this and deliver it to Lord Zhao Zhongtian who is in charge of matters related to the Immortal Dynasty’s teleportation arrays, tell him it is an application for the Taoist Sect’s teleportation array to connect to the Immortal Dynasty’s teleportation arrays, and I have already approved it."

"Yes!" The arrest officer took the seal and retreated.

Watching his subordinate leave, Wu Yangshuo pondered slightly. That Liang Yi of the Taoist Sect seemed quite familiar with these Abnormal People, but he wondered whether Liang Yi knew where these Abnormal People came from.

While it was a phenomenon of the Heavenly Dao, the scope of this phenomenon had also spread quite broadly. Since receiving reports, Wu Yangshuo noticed that the scope was expanding almost every second, now already involving the entire Mystical Mechanism Continent.

This scope of Heavenly Dao phenomena, even with regard to previous records, is unprecedented.

Moreover, these newly emerging Abnormal People all display more or less the same traits, equally elusive and baffling. Even those oddballs who strip their trousers in public have been captured quite a few, who knows what goes on in the minds of these Abnormal People, what normal person would do such a thing?

Wu Yangshuo had also considered whether it might be other worlds preparing to invade the Mystical Mechanism Continent, but after careful observation of this group of Abnormal People, he dismissed the idea.

Because they are simply too dumb, so much so that Wu Yangshuo felt he might have been infected by their stupidity, otherwise why would he harbor such foolish thoughts? What kind of invading species would be so idiotic?

Wu Yangshuo shook his head, focusing on handling the intelligence sent from the Mystic Bureaus across Xuanzhou Immortal Dynasty, beginning to mitigate the impact brought by these Abnormal People.

Not only the Mystic Bureau, but other departments throughout the Immortal Dynasty are also vigorously handling this matter.

Meanwhile, Bai Xiaomo and Ju Xiaobei were also in Qingliang City searching for Boss Liang.

During the beta testing phase, the sect function was not activated, so not only them, but all other beta testers couldn’t enter. Now that the public beta has officially started and many features have been unlocked, they couldn’t find their coveted Boss Liang.

"What to do, it seems like Boss Liang has already left Qingliang City," uttered a somewhat melancholic Bai Xiaomo in his usual bizarre attire to his close buddy nearby.

Other public beta players were still excitedly experiencing this game world as if it was a new world, looking at the now well-equipped Bai Xiaomo and Ju Xiaobei, their gazes filled with an envy incomprehensible to the original inhabitants.

"Is the aesthetic sense of these Abnormal People broken, what’s there to envy?"

"Not just Boss Liang, all sects that participated in the grand sect competition have already left," Ju Xiaobei also felt dejected, kicking a pebble off the roadside.

They had planned perfectly, to find Boss Liang, get the entry permission from the Complete Heaven Sect, and become one of the only two players officially joining a Super Force, thus officially embarking on the path of cultivation.

But cold reality struck them mercilessly, they forgot that the NPCs in this world are intelligent and wouldn’t foolishly wait for them to return and claim rewards. They also didn’t have any contact information for Boss Liang, who knows how long it would be until they could find him again.

"Do we give up on Complete Heaven Sect and directly join the Mystic Bureau, or continue searching for Boss Liang to obtain the entry permission to Complete Heaven Sect?" Bai Xiaomo wasn’t one to just sit and wait; unable to claim the rewards for now, he was already contemplating how to maximize the advantages of the beta testing.

According to what they knew, other beta testers were also busy choosing sects to obtain Cultivation Techniques. However, like them, the sect receptionists had long disappeared, and they too were feeling despondent.

And those who wanted to join the Mystic Bureau were also urgently undertaking missions to gain favorability, striving to receive the entry review missions from the Mystic Bureau soon.

They had been with Boss Liang for so long, and had made such great achievements during the investigation of the Devouring Spirit Sect, joining the Mystic Bureau would be easy.

"Hmm... let me think, the last mission during the beta testing, I found traces of the Vermilion Bird envoy, apart from the most basic large amount of favorability and experience, the reward was to propose a choice between a Cultivation Technique, equipment, or spiritual coins to Mystic Bureau."

During the beta testing, the levels were capped, so players seldom directly settled their missions, but instead chose to settle during the public testing period.

"Hmph, damn Europeans!" Bai Xiaomo snorted coldly, everyone has luck 1, why is he luck E, and Ju Xiaobei is luck billion?

Just because his weapon is a gun?

"Isn’t this obvious? Of course, choose the Cultivation Technique. Once the mission is settled, as soon as you learn the Cultivation Technique, the level will skyrocket, without it all the experience in the world won’t help."

"But if we join the Mystic Bureau or Complete Heaven Sect, we’ll be directly taught Cultivation Techniques, right?" Ju Xiaobei was a bit conflicted, he wanted something relatively more value-preserving.

Cultivation Technique was the most value-preserving option, applicable to everyone, regardless of who they are or what realm they are in. As for equipment, it would depend on what grade of Magical Treasure the Mystic Bureau could offer him; low-grade is just transitional, high-grade would be unless Wu Yangshuo has gone off his rocker to give it to him.

As for the option of spiritual coins, they didn’t even consider it, which high-level player would choose the money option for a high-difficulty rare mission? Although they’re both very broke, ringing loud broke.

"Let’s go and see, maybe we can preview the rewards?" Bai Xiaomo and Ju Xiaobei both suffered from indecisiveness, and their first method to solve this was to procrastinate.

"Are you Bai Xiaomo and Ju Xiaobei?"

Just as Bai Xiaomo and Ju Xiaobei were hesitantly discussing on the street, a young arrest officer appeared before them from nowhere, due to their high favorability in Xuanzhou Immortal Dynasty, the arrest officer’s attitude towards them was fairly friendly.

Such differential treatment was the envy of many novice players, they had just seen this arrest officer smack a player trying to rob a street vendor into a critically debilitated state with one slap, casually handing him over to other arrest officers to be taken back to the Mystic Bureau’s dungeon.

Bai Xiaomo and Ju Xiaobei exchanged glances, both slightly puzzled, are they being approached with a reward? Otherwise, what else could it be?
