Chapter 328 The Genius Senior Brother's Storage Bag
Knowing how to break the cycle of reincarnation is one thing, but putting it into practice is far from easy.
Zhengze has only just turned 30, and he will live to be at least 79 years old. During these 79 years, he will face daily dangers that could kill him.
This statement is not an exaggeration. Take today for example. In the entire morning and noon since he came out of the mountain, Zhengze has already suffered two life-threatening crises. Once, he was really about to lose his life. If it weren't for the bracelet that was put into the Jade Willow Space at some unknown time, he would probably be meeting the King of Hell by now.
If there are so many dangers in a single day, imagine what it would be like in 79.
……
After Yu Liu and the others realized the difficulty of the situation, they remained silent when a commotion arose from the pilot who had been controlling the plane.
"that--"
Someone turned around and tentatively spoke to the three cultivators who appeared to be resting with their eyes closed.
Yan Ning dispelled the illusion array: "What happened?"
"An unidentified flying object has been obstructing the plane's flight; it seems to be a monster..."
The soldier stammered.
He closed his eyes and sensed it for a moment, then nodded to Yu Liu and Zheng Ze who were looking over: "It's an eagle demon."
Zhengze gave a bleak smile: "They're probably here for me."
He was very self-aware; the bad luck around him had been at work, often affecting those around him. Just like this time, although the monster claimed to be looking for him, it had its sights set on the entire plane.
"I understand. You shouldn't take action now. I'll handle it."
Yan Ning didn't give Zhengze a chance to refuse. She walked to the cabin door, greeted the pilot, and then opened the cabin door.
He threw out his sword and flew through the air to meet the monster that had been flying in front of the plane, making a blocking motion.
The longsword flashed with a chilling light, and amidst the sword's gleam, blood exploded into a cloud of smoke and rained down from the sky.
Sheathing her longsword, Yan Ning returned to the helicopter amidst the astonished gazes of the soldiers.
Nothing else went wrong on the way.
However, as long as regular expressions exist, things will never stop.
The plane kept getting lost, then it flew into low-flying clouds, then it got hit by birds – one problem after another. It was clearly an experienced pilot, and such situations shouldn't have happened, but the entire flight was filled with all sorts of minor mishaps.
When the plane landed, the other soldiers on board breathed a sigh of relief. They had been on tenterhooks the whole time, worried that they might fall due to a mistake. It must have been tough for them.
They were puzzled, while Yu Liu could only silently feel guilty on their behalf.
To ensure that the cultivators who came out of the mountains would not cause social chaos, they were all gathered together and then sent to an underground training base.
This base, originally used for military training, has now become a lecture hall for these cultivators. Many respected elders serve as lecturers, instilling in these cultivators essential common sense and basic knowledge about modern life.
It is essential to make these monks aware of the benefits and power of science.
We must keep them in check. No matter how powerful they are, can they be more powerful than a nuclear bomb?
After seeing the photos of the aftermath of the nuclear explosion, the cultivators fell silent. They simply couldn't believe that the mortals they thought were so easily defeated actually possessed such abilities, comparable to divine magic.
Their performance was also very satisfactory. After realizing that their abilities were considered impressive among ordinary people, but not as impressive as nuclear bombs, they became much friendlier towards the soldiers in the base who possessed nuclear bombs.
After nearly a week of diligent study, everyone finally began to gradually become familiar with the modern lifestyle and tried to integrate into it.
Because he was underground this week, Zhengze's bad luck seemed to be suppressed a lot. Nothing strange happened to him. However, he would often trip over his own feet and fall flat on his face during training. There would be a long nail pointing upwards right where he fell, and he would accidentally slip and fall, hitting his head on the corner of the desk. These kinds of things happened one after another, and every time his head was the target.
Fortunately, the regular expression was sensitive, which prevented these minor incidents from turning into a tragedy.
But things couldn't go on like this forever. Yu Liu was so worried about it that her hair turned white, but she couldn't think of a good solution. What she feared most now was that Zhengze might make a mistake while trying to avoid bad luck, and if he really hurt his head and went to see the King of Hell, she would be heartbroken.
Under her watchful eye, the monks passed the test and were released from the training base, ready to follow the nation's arrangements and carry out missions.
In recent years, traveling abroad has become fashionable. Not only do people in China frequently talk about traveling abroad, but many foreigners have also gradually flowed into China and settled down. This is originally a good thing, but as the number of people flowing into the country increases, many undesirable elements have also mixed in.
It's not that these things are ugly or disgusting; on the contrary, they are all handsome men and beautiful women, and their unique good looks, unlike those of people from the East, make them even more popular. The reason they are considered dirty is because they all share one characteristic: their food is people.
The fresh blood and delicate bodies of Easterners became their favorites, and they flocked to China in droves, solely to hunt there.
Each of them possesses extraordinary abilities, making them difficult to capture. Furthermore, the cultivators who originally intimidated those creatures remained secluded, rendering modern technology temporarily helpless against them.
They are killing more and more humans, and the Chinese government is becoming increasingly powerless to stop them, ultimately having no choice but to seek help from cultivators.
……
That night, the sky was pitch black; there were no stars or moon.
In a secluded alleyway, a silent looting is taking place.
The victims of the plundering had no sense of danger whatsoever.
"Hmm..." The girl squinted slightly, trying to focus her eyes and see her surroundings clearly. Her cheeks were flushed, and her eyes were covered with a red glow. She reeked of alcohol, and it was obvious at a glance that she was drunk.
"Where...where is this? Have we come to the wrong place?" She hiccuped, swaying unsteadily as she asked incoherently.
“You’ve come to the right place. This is where I’m taking you.” A strong arm slipped under the girl’s arm, supporting her swaying body. The other arm pulled her into his embrace. “There’s no one here right now. I can’t wait any longer. Will you give yourself to me?”
"Mmm-hehe~" The girl chuckled foolishly, trying to see more clearly. The blond, blue-eyed man reflected in her eyes was somewhat blurry, but his deep-set eyes, high-bridged nose, and delicate, fair skin all spoke volumes about his exquisite appearance. She reached out her right hand and slowly climbed up his face, mimicking what she'd seen on TV, whispering sweetly in his ear, "Okay~"
She chuckled softly, her melodious voice sounding strangely eerie in the deserted, dark alley.
"Really?" The blond, blue-eyed man grinned. "Then I won't stand on ceremony."
He placed his hand on the girl's collar, grabbed the sides of her clothes, and ripped them apart with tremendous force, tearing the clothes in two. They hung loosely on the girl's body, revealing her fragrant shoulders and alluring collarbones.
"So beautiful~" the blond, blue-eyed man exclaimed, "And it smells amazing too, it's truly a gem."
He lewdly buried his head in the girl's neck, took a deep breath, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
"good."
As he spoke, two long, sharp canine teeth suddenly popped out from his upper jaw and slowly approached the girl's neck.
Just as the long fangs were about to pierce the girl's flesh, a sword light suddenly slashed across.
The vampire from the West quickly took a few steps back, his thick eyebrows furrowing.
"Who dares to disturb this duke's meal?"
"The one who killed you!!"
His thumb rested on the longsword hidden in its scabbard, the short section of the blade reflecting a faint light even in the darkness, its sharpness undeniable. Zhengze wore a fitted white shirt, dark jeans, and white sneakers; his shoulder-length, tousled hair covered his forehead, making him look like a high school student, not a 30-year-old man at all.
He slowly emerged from the corner where he had been hiding.
"Don't argue with him, just hurry up and resolve this. The baby is sleepy, and I'm worried she'll catch a cold sleeping outside."
From the dark corner came another person's voice.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of it right away." Zhengze straightened his expression and, as he walked up to the girl, knocked her to the ground with a single punch. He then turned to face the vampire duke, whom the other disciples dared not confront.
This guy's ability is a bit strange; he has a spatial technique that allows him to teleport instantly. Moreover, this teleportation doesn't move him; he can only move others. Even those with higher cultivation levels than him cannot resist it.
When facing him, the worst thing is for him to suddenly move you in front of him, but this can be dealt with if you are prepared. Another situation is that he keeps moving you to a very far place. In this case, you can't even fight, let alone kill him.
Several disciples had already returned from killing Yu here, covered in wounds. Left with no other choice, Li Qingran and Zhengze, the two strongest cultivators, were forced to step in and deal with him.
"You have quite the nerve. It seems you don't know how powerful I, the Duke, am."
"Hmm, I really don't know, so I need to learn from you."
Zhengze smiled wickedly. The vampire duke sensed something was wrong and quickly dodged to the side, but it was too late.
"Pfft-"
The sound of a longsword slicing through flesh was very loud in the night. Zhengze's sword had somehow circled around to the back of the vampire duke, and when the vampire duke's attention was focused on Zhengze, he was ordered by Zhengze to launch a sneak attack.
The vampire duke sensed something, but he was a step too late.
The moment the longsword pierced the body, a silver light flashed on the sword, and the longsword that should have been stuck in the vampire's body disappeared instantly.
At the same time, Zhengze also lost his sense of his sword.
"Tsk!" He was a little annoyed, but not worried: "I knew it would turn out like this, so..."
As he spoke, his body began to flash with silver light. The light appeared so quickly that people could see it but couldn't react in time. In the next instant, he appeared in front of the vampire duke.
At the same time, he thrust out his longsword.
“…I have prepared many weapons on purpose.” Under the vampire duke’s astonished gaze, he calmly drew his sword: “You should be honored for this. I have also practiced that no matter how far away I am, I must thrust forward when I get the weapon. That way, even if I can’t react to your teleportation, I can still hurt you.”
The vampire duke's lips twitched. The girl lying on the ground flickered twice, and she appeared in the vampire's arms. The next moment, the vampire's fangs pierced the girl's neck without hesitation.
Zhengze immediately swung his longsword, but the vampire seized the opportunity to suck a mouthful of blood, and the wounds on his body slowly began to heal.
Zhengze's body began to glow again, but this time he was not facing the vampire; instead, he had his back to him.
This time, he was a beat too slow, and the weapon in his hand pierced the vampire's palm, the one the vampire was about to strike on his back.
Seeing how fast Zhengze reacted, the vampire began to feel helpless. The reason he became a duke was because he could kill his enemies before they could react.
He didn't want to send Zhengze away, because Zhengze's blood was truly irresistible to him. The blood of Eastern cultivators contained spiritual energy, which was a great tonic for them, and they generally wouldn't let go of them if they encountered them.
The teleportation light kept flashing, and Zhengze's position kept changing, but he never left the vampire's vicinity. The vampire kept trying to attack, and Zhengze's expression was tense, ready to defend at any time.
In this situation, his nerves simply couldn't hold up for long.
"You will soon be mine...in my pocket!"
The vampire was very pleased with himself.
"Oh, you've even learned to use idioms now." Zhengze's expression was serious, but his tone sounded quite relaxed: "However, you've used the wrong words; it's you who will become my prey!"
With a flick of his sleeve, a vast array of longswords appeared out of thin air, their gleaming light aimed directly at the vampire. From their appearance to their attack, there was no pause whatsoever.
This is actually a battle of reflexes between the regularity and the vampire's reaction speed. Whoever can't react in time will only face one fate. Oh, of course, the regularity won't end up like that, since there's the even more powerful Yan Ning backing him up.
The vampire's reaction was indeed slow, and nearly half of the longswords pierced him. He didn't care about his injuries at all and prepared to move Zhengze away first. Once Zhengze was gone, the longswords, without their command, would no longer be of any use.
Unfortunately, regular expressions won't give him that chance.
"burst!"
These swords are all very basic; I wouldn't feel bad if they were destroyed.
"boom--"
In the still of the night, the explosion sounded like a thunderclap echoing across the sky, deafeningly loud.
