I'm already a Great Luo Golden Immortal, how come you're only Martial Saints?

The reporters looked at each other, their faces filled with bewilderment and disbelief.

The cameraman switched to infrared night vision equipment, and the reporters rubbed their eyes desperately trying to see clearly, but to no avail.

Ning Chen, who caused all of this, was standing quietly at the back of the group.

Having just broken through to the Dao Integration Realm, his body and mind were in harmony with the laws of heaven and earth. He instantly sensed strands of cause and effect, like an invisible spider web, wrapping around him.

Most of them express concern, curiosity, and admiration, but a few contain greed, jealousy, or scheming.

Ning Chen's mind stirred slightly, as if brushing away dust from his clothes.

An invisible field naturally emanated from it.

The causal threads that tried to entangle him were twisted, broken, and dissipated the moment they touched the Daoist radiance he emitted, just like ice and snow meeting the scorching sun!

All causes and effects remain untouched upon him!

At this moment, in this mortal world of Blue Star, he is already an unknowable, invisible, unpredictable, and mysterious being!

Ning Chen's existence transcends the physical rules of optical imaging and interferes with human perception and cognition in an incomprehensible way.

This phenomenon is completely beyond the scope of explanation by modern science!

Ning Chen stood amidst the clamor of reporters, yet seemed to exist in another dimension, completely detached from the outside world.

Only after Lao Luo called out repeatedly did he withdraw his divine sense, like a giant whale swallowing the ocean, slowly gathering and settling his own Daoist essence.

That unknown realm, which was isolated from the view of ordinary people, receded into his body like a receding tide.

The air, which was originally empty, rippled slightly, like the surface of a lake where a pebble had been thrown in.

First, a blurry human figure was outlined, like water vapor condensing. Then, the outline quickly solidified and was filled with color, finally forming a handsome young man in a blue robe with an upright posture, which was none other than Ning Chen!

"ah!"

"Whoosh!"

"Look!"

Suddenly, gasps and gasps of surprise erupted from the crowd.

The reporters rubbed their eyes hard as the camera screen went from blank to showing Ning Chen's image, as if it were a special effects shot, full of the feel of a fantasy blockbuster.

"It's here! It's appeared!"

"There really was no one there just now! Now they've suddenly reappeared!"

"My God, is this the legendary invisibility technique? It's amazing!"

"As expected of Ning Shen! In just three years in the Journey to the West Divine Realm, he has even mastered divine magic like invisibility!"

"Quick, take a picture! Quick, take a picture! This is an exclusive, first-hand news story!"

The flashes started again like a storm, and the sound of camera shutters was incessant.

The reporters were flushed with excitement, their eyes filled with fervor and awe as they looked at Ning Chen; they had witnessed a myth come to life.

Ning Chen's lips twitched slightly as he listened to the gasps of surprise from those around him about using invisibility techniques.

"These idiots..."

That's not some kind of invisibility technique.

It was clearly a mysterious state achieved after a breakthrough in one's own realm, where one interacted with the heavens and man, and the Daoist essence arose spontaneously, temporarily shielding one from the existence of mortal perception and physical imaging.

It was a natural phenomenon brought about by the leap in his life level, completely different from the invisibility tricks of the martial arts world.

Ning Chen had read some books in the Fangcun Mountain Scripture Pavilion, all of which described his current state.

The Yunji Qiqian Shenxian Benqi Jing states that...

"Immortals are those who conceal their traces and forms, and do not mingle with the world. They exist outside the Three Realms and within the Five Elements. Their form and spirit can change according to the Dao, sometimes appearing as ordinary people, sometimes transforming into natural phenomena. Therefore, it is not that they do not appear, but that ordinary people find it difficult to recognize them. The actions of immortals are always in accordance with the Dao of Heaven, and they do not deliberately display their supernatural powers, so it is difficult for people to see their traces."

The Taishang Ganying Pian also mentions this.

"When the heart is set on good, even if the good deed is not yet done, auspicious spirits will follow. When the heart is set on evil, even if the evil deed is not yet done, inauspicious spirits will follow. The appearance of deities may be a good omen or a warning. Only those with a pure heart and a clear mind can perceive it."

Ning Chen had unknowingly reached this state.

However, this mysterious phenomenon is destined to be incomprehensible to ordinary people.

Explaining the leap in life form to them in the Dao Integration Realm would be like casting pearls before swine, and he had no intention of wasting his breath.

In a secret room filled with cutting-edge equipment beneath the sports field of Kyoto University, someone exclaimed in surprise.

"It's out! It's finally out!"

"Really? Let me see. I knew it wasn't a malfunction. Everyone else has data, but Ning Chen doesn't. He must have used some kind of trick, otherwise there's no reason why he couldn't get the reading."

Old Qin, whom we haven't seen for a long time, appeared in the underground secret room. He had a white cloth strip tied around his head with six large vermilion characters written on it.

"It's all or nothing!"

Behind him followed a group of disciples and followers, all wearing white headbands, with solemn expressions and a murderous aura, each with resolute eyes.

It was as if they weren't conducting scientific research and testing, but rather going to fight a desperate battle with no chance of survival.

"We have the data! We have the data! Professor Qin's proposed long-distance quantum observation method is indeed effective!"

A cheer erupted in the laboratory, but it didn't last long.

The researchers stared intently at the wildly fluctuating energy curve on the monitoring screen, their voices trembling with shock.

"Elder Qin, Ning Chen's energy index is rising abnormally! This reaction is about to exceed the measurement limit!"

On the monitor, the light representing Ning Chen's vital signs surged wildly, leaving the data of other Divine Realm cultivators far behind and crushing them into dust.

Old Qin rushed to the control panel and watched as the red line representing Ning Chen surged.

"Quickly shut down the observation equipment! His life magnetic field strength..."

Before Elder Qin could finish speaking, the ball of light representing Ning Chen suddenly exploded into a dazzling star, and the next second, blinding lightning flashed in the laboratory!

Bang!

The precision quantum sensor array emitted plumes of black smoke, and the smell of burning permeated the entire underground chamber.

On the shattered fragments of the screen, the final data displayed brought the entire room to a deathly silence: the energy valuation column prominently displayed the symbol ∞.

"Even quantum observation instruments cannot contain his life data..."

Qin Lao's aged voice was filled with shock and awe.

"This is no longer a technical issue; it is a mortal creation that desecrates the bodies of immortals and gods."

"Now I finally understand why Newton and Einstein both began studying theology in their later years!"

.......

At Beijing University, in the Divine Realm Walker Class, Lao Luo wore a cassock, sunglasses, and his bald head gleamed under the incandescent light. He had a serious expression on his face.

"This fifth challenge will be guided by your teacher! Please read more Buddhist scriptures these next few days."

Seeing the distrustful expressions on the students' faces, Lao Luo coughed and asked Ning Chen.

"Ning Chen, you agree, this fifth trial mainly involves reciting scriptures and chanting Buddhist prayers; there's not much fighting or killing!"

Ning Chen nodded. He estimated that if Guanyin Temple were to face any hardship, it would only be in these places.

After all, they didn't even have that brocade cassock!

Even if the Black Bear Demon wanted to steal, there was nothing to steal!

.........

Several days passed in the blink of an eye.

The group entered the fifth level of the Journey to the West Divine Realm.

Looking out at the magnificent and thriving Guanyin Temple, everyone couldn't help but feel a sense of awe.

Luo Yonghao sighed with regret!

"This is truly a place where Buddhism flourishes!"

Before his exclamation had subsided, a brocade cassock descended from the sky and was placed directly on Old Luo's bald head!
