Chapter 249 Yingzhou Fairy Island
The night was dark, and the pale moonlight sadly spilled onto the silver sand.

Ji Ran opened her eyes, her pupils reflecting a shimmering light.

A faint stench of decay attracted flies and insects, which buzzed and arranged themselves into seal script characters before my eyes.

[Awakening of Insects]

[Guided Location - Yingzhou Immortal Island, 2035 AD]

[World Level: Tier 3]

In the 28th year of Qin Shi Huang's reign, Xu Fu, under the emperor's order, led 3,000 young boys and girls, along with 10,000 Qin elite warriors, eastward across to Yingzhou in search of the elixir of immortality for the emperor.

In 219 BC, Xu Fu entered the fairy island, and in order to ascend the steps, he did not return.

Xu Dengjie, *******, preached the "Yin-Yang Sect".

After that, only Qin remained in Yingzhou.

Two thousand years have passed, extinguishing the last vestiges of feudalism, while rising technology has reshaped the social hierarchy.

Daqin Heavy Industry stands proudly atop Jade Mountain, dominating all companies and industries. The Yin-Yang sect's beliefs are deeply ingrained in the blood of the common people, relentlessly exploiting them.

False humans, monsters, mutants, and aberrant beings! Azure Phoenix, Chiwen, Bai Ze, and Wenyao!

On the sacred mountain, there are precious ***** and ancient ***** of the Mohist school.

These were the dark years when the immortals were barely clinging to life.

It is a barbaric era where technology and ancient martial arts have merged.

It is a crazy era where mortals mutate and ascend to demonic status, and machines ascend to immortality!
This place is taken, young one.

Open your eyes wider.

……

[Road guide mission in progress...]

[WARNING! This is the final world for the Pathfinder quest. Failure to activate the Pathfinder by the end of this world will result in the inescapable fate of being cursed.]

……

As the cicada's chirping ended, the swarm of flies dispersed.

hum!
Suddenly, all the flies trembled! The font rearranged itself—

"Young man, even breathing here costs money."

[The spirituality within you, for now, serves as interest.]

[You need to pay me 1 yi of jade gold in ten days. Otherwise, I will come and collect it myself.]

(Note: All spiritual powers are currently 100% sealed.)

(The account will be re-banned after ten days; payment of 1 Yi Jade Gold will remove the ban.)
hum-

The flies suddenly dispersed, revealing the shimmering night sky—an ocean.

Ji Ran turned her head, behind her was a desolate Gobi desert, and in the distance, densely packed mountains that looked like jade pillars reaching the sky!
The mountains were brightly lit, and layers of buildings surrounded a pale, colossal city! The city soared into the sky, and its ancient pavilions were illuminated by dazzling neon lights.

As far as the eye can see, the mountains piled up by the city almost occupy the entire island!

Ji Ran's alchemical iris flickered, which allowed him to see some things more clearly.

Rolling mountain peaks, lush forests, vermilion pavilions, steel factories, punk airships... countless things blend together harmoniously, and tens of millions of buildings are piled up to form a city like a mountain range.

Layer upon layer, the lights become increasingly dazzling with the height of the city, until they pierce the clouds, where golden and red palaces can be vaguely seen floating on the clouds.

Brush and pull!

Ji Ran slowly stood up, her brows slightly furrowed. This journey had not granted her an identity in this world, and the timeline of this world... was 2035, the same year as the real world.

Moreover, judging from what they just said, it seems there are powerful figures in this world who knew about the traveler's arrival the moment they entered. They then imposed restrictions and concealed some information about this world.

hum!
Ji Ran's vision of cause and effect shifted, and he saw two causal lines on his body, drifting towards the depths of the continent.

Those are Kamaitachi and Zashiki-warashi!

The causal link between Ghost Golden Sheep and itself has been established, and in turn, it has been linked to them. Now, all of this has been transmitted into this world!
Ji Ran looked at the black and red ring on her hand and said, "Vlad, can you hear me?"

"can."

"Can I use my ability?"

"Yes, but I've lost my magic. Once injured, I can't replenish or recover."

"Is that so?"

Ji Ran looked at his hands, unable to sense any spiritual power. The spiritual power granted by a profession level could be converted into magical power or physical strength by the traveler.

Once sealed, even physical combat professions like Nightmare Masters and Phoenix Masters will experience a drastic drop in power!
I'm fine.

At least my physical body is at level 4.

and……

Ji Ran closed his eyes and sensed it; his primordial spirit could still be activated! What was sealed was the spiritual power brought by the professional system.

Neither his physical body nor his primordial spirit were sealed away.

At this moment, Ji Ran looked at his location, which was on the outermost edge of this stacked city world.

Click!

Ji Ran took a step and stepped on something. He looked down and saw that the gravel mixed with tiny metal fragments under his feet had been stepped on, leaving a pale bump.

boom!
Ji Ran kicked it away, only to find a white skeleton of a bull's head.

No.

Ji Ran's eyes narrowed slightly. The bull's head with horns was round and flat, and the outline of its facial features was somewhat similar to a human's.

Looking up again, the view shifted from the distant, majestic city to what lay before me—

The shimmering moonlight gently enveloped the entire beach.

The salty sea breeze, carrying the stench of rust and rotting flesh, swirled beneath the cold, desolate sky.

Broken ribs pierced the sand like weathered thorn bushes; the bizarre, inhuman skull had empty eye sockets filled with black oil, and its jaw was half-open, as if roaring silently.

Metal scrap and circuit boards were half-buried in the sand, while dried seaweed and technological waste were entangled around a whale carcass the size of a small mountain.

On the whale's carcass, a black figure was staring intently at him, seemingly out of nowhere.

"Beep—beep beep beep—"

In the field of vision, the font representing the number of travelers appeared in blood red.

398.

397.

……

394.

The continuously declining numbers indicate that within just a few minutes of entering this world, several Celestial Walkers have already died!
[Target "mutant" discovered.]

Threat Level: Low

Ji Ran raised an eyebrow, looked at the feedback from the alchemical iris, and immediately took a step.

But the next moment, he stopped in his tracks.

On this beach covered with wreckage and debris, one dark figure after another suddenly rose up with a rustling sound.

These shadows wore tattered clothes, carried backpacks of varying sizes, and their eyes gleamed with a cold light under the moonlight.

Hundreds of figures stared intently at him, like silent ghosts in the dark night.

"Ah."

Ji Ran stretched his body and pulled himself out of the void!
Swah——

A long-handled broken blade landed in Ji Ran's palm. He spun it gently, the blade gleaming with a chilling light in the moonlight.
