Everyone ascended, but I didn't get on board

Chapter 4 Qiu Ci Wants to Run Away

Qiu Ci looked at the paper with Chinese writing on it again. Could it be that before this, there was another predecessor who had traveled through time and space to this world and brought Chinese here?
So what on earth did he do that was so outrageous that the Chinese language turned into a magic language?

"Here they come! The immortal masters escorting the evil cultivators are here." The porridge stall owner exclaimed and quickly pointed to the city gate.

For a moment, not only Qiu Ci, but everyone in the shop turned to look over, even those sitting in the shops facing the street stuck their heads out.

From afar, several white rainbows were seen flying towards them, and in a moment they had landed at the city gate. Then a group of people were seen walking along the street. The four people walking in the front were monks dressed in white. Their style was similar to Fu Haoyu from the Spirit Testing Hall before, but it was more exquisite. The aura he exuded made people dare not look directly at him. I think they are the immortal master that the porridge stall owner mentioned.

Behind them were several prison vans, each of which contained people, all of whom were covered in blood and looked miserable. Although they were not wearing any shackles, they had talismans on them, and the people inside were motionless.

The Immortal Sect seemed to be trying to intimidate people, and they escorted the group slowly along the main street, heading towards the city. The solemn and murderous aura they exuded made even the bustling streets quiet down a lot.

It wasn't until the team passed by that the village chief asked in confusion, "Didn't they say there was only one evil cultivator?"

"There is indeed only one person who practices forbidden techniques." The porridge stall owner, who clearly knew something, shuddered and explained in a low voice, "But there are more than just those who have read that forbidden book. Everyone who has read it will be punished, and even their families will be punished as well."

"It's so serious." The village chief exclaimed.

Qiu Ci, standing beside her, felt her heart pounding, her hands already shaking. This world was more dangerous than she'd imagined. Suddenly, she was thankful she hadn't subconsciously read the words floating out in the Spirit Test Hall, or else she might have become one of the people paraded through the streets.

She quickly recalled whether she had revealed any flaws after traveling through time. Fortunately, she was not a high-profile person and was discreet enough, so she did not reveal that she could speak Chinese.

Qiu Ci wanted to follow and see what was happening, but the village chief took him back to the village on the grounds that children should not watch anything too bloody.

For the next two days, Qiu Ci kept thinking about whether or not to become an immortal. This world was obviously full of unusual dangers, and they were aimed at her. Chinese was like a time bomb hanging over her head, which might explode at any time if it was exposed.

Moreover, her spiritual roots and bloodline are also a problem. Just because she got through it this time doesn’t mean she can get through it every time.

Now she still has a way out. She can stay hidden and find out the specific situation of the immortal cultivators in this world first.

But generally speaking, I can't stay in the village anymore. This trip to Huiyang City is an opportunity. It should be easier to escape from an unfamiliar place.

-------

Three days passed in a flash. As the only two people with spiritual roots, Qiu Ci and Feng Ting set out for Huiyang City, where the immortal sect recruited disciples.

There is a teleportation array in Yanlin City that goes directly to Huiyang. Only with the jade token issued during the test can you be teleported there for free.

The formation was located right in the center of the city, next to the execution ground where the previous executions had taken place. From a distance, one could see the undried bloodstains in the center of the execution ground, and the dark red color on the ground hurt one's eyes.

Qiu Ci's heart trembled, and he pulled Feng Ting and walked quickly into the formation.

The next moment, a white light flashed, and she felt dizzy. The environment around her began to distort, and even her feet began to shake.

"Sister Xiaoci, I feel so dizzy..." Feng Ting clutched her hand tightly, her face pale and looking extremely uncomfortable. Qiuci wasn't feeling much better either, feeling waves of nausea. She'd seen many people get carsick and seasick, but she hadn't expected to experience seasickness herself!

Fortunately, this situation did not last long. After a few minutes, the dizzy feeling disappeared. The white light faded away and the scene in front of my eyes had changed. Noisy sounds were heard, and all kinds of figures appeared around.

The two of them appeared in a larger formation, with white light flashing beside them. Every time it flashed, there would be one more person in the formation, and then they would walk downwards.

This is... We've arrived.

"Let's go!" Qiu Ci pulled Feng Ting out of the battle and saw many people with pale faces vomiting while holding onto trees at the bottom of the stairs.

Well, I feel relieved to know that she is not the only one who fainted.

Qiu Ci originally planned to send Feng Ting to the place where she would register for the Immortal Sect first, and then separate them on the pretext that they wanted to register for different Immortal Sects. After all, her conscience would not allow her to abandon a little girl like that.

Unfortunately, plans cannot keep up with changes. Before the two of them had time to inquire about the place to register for the Immortal Sect, a young man's voice came from behind them.

"Hey, you two, wait for me!" The two turned around subconsciously, only to see a boy with a cat-like hairstyle running towards them breathlessly. "I finally caught up with you."

"Who are you?" Qiu Ci looked him up and down, making sure that he didn't know the cat boy in front of him.

"My name is Zhen Yi. Like you, I came from Yanlin City to participate in the Immortal Sect election." The cat boy took a deep breath and then hurriedly explained, "I called you when you entered the formation just now, but you walked too fast and didn't hear me."

"You're from Qingniu Village, right? My family used to live there, but we moved to the city five years ago." Zhen Yi smiled at the two of them, then continued enthusiastically, "Yesterday, Village Chief Ma came to my house specifically to say that since you two girls are traveling so far away for the first time and you're unfamiliar with the place, he asked me to take good care of you."

"..." Qiu Ci's face fell. So he was the supervisor hired by the village chief Niuma?

"So you were the one the village chief had asked for." Feng Ting, who was standing next to him, looked at the other person curiously.

"That's right!" The cat boy patted his chest and said with a familiar look, "Don't worry, given my friendship with the village chief, I will definitely take good care of you. This is not my first time in Huiyang City, and I am very familiar with this place. If you have any questions, you can ask me."

"No..." Qiu Ci was about to refuse.

The cat boy had already picked them up, one in each hand, and walked forward, "Come on, I'll take you to the place where you can register for the Immortal Sect."

"No..." I still have to run away!
"Let me tell you, when it comes to immortal sects, you should definitely join the Xuantian Sect." As the young cat walked, he excitedly explained to them, "After all, there are only three top immortal sects: the Xuantian Sect, the Luoxia Sect, and the Chiling Sect. These three are the only first-rate immortal sects in our Linyuan Continent. Huiyang City is under the jurisdiction of the Xuantian Sect, so if we want to join a sect, the Xuantian Sect is naturally the best."

"..."

"Of course, above the Immortal Sect is the Immortal Alliance, but the Immortal Alliance does not accept disciples." Zhen Yi continued, "The Immortal Alliance governs all the Immortal Sects and cultivators. Only cultivators with extraordinary talents or high levels of cultivation will be accepted into the Immortal Alliance."
