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

Gathering these desperate explorers of the Journey to the West's divine realm together, Teacher Luo stood with his hands behind his back, his expression indifferent.

"Do you know that you're all going to die soon!"

These young men and women were already nervous, and upon hearing these words, some of the girls' eyes reddened, and tears streamed down their faces like broken pearls.

"However, I have a way to give you a chance to come back alive..."

Teacher Luo stopped keeping everyone in suspense and changed the subject.

"The Journey to the West Divine Realm consists of eighty-one levels, divided into four major continents: East Sheng Divine Continent, West Niu He Continent, South Zhanbu Continent, and North Ju Lu Continent. When you descend, choose the first level, South Zhanbu Continent. There, the human race is powerful, demons rarely appear, and it is also the place where each pilgrim has the highest chance of returning alive..."

Ning Chen nodded secretly. In the land of the Human Emperor, even gods and demons must act with caution.

For example, when Guanyin Bodhisattva enlightened Tang Sanzang, she had to appear in Chang'an City in an incarnation.

What Teacher Luo said is not wrong.

"Thank you so much, Professor Luo!"

"Thank you, Teacher Luo!"

These classmates, who thought they were going to die, suddenly had a glimmer of hope in their eyes.

"Oh, don't mention it, it's all I should do..."

Teacher Luo waved his hand and revealed his true intention.

"If you can obtain any extraordinary opportunities or information within the Divine Realm, please relay them to me through the Central Hub or after returning to Earth. That would be enough to repay the kindness of my guidance today!"

"Definitely, definitely!"

"Don't worry, Teacher Luo!"

These newbies readily agreed.

Ning Chen sneered inwardly, thinking, "I've been sold out, and I'm even helping the other person count the money."

These powerful individuals who had cultivated to the Great Perfection in the low-level martial arts world realized the preciousness of the Journey to the West Divine Realm.

If they want to go further and transcend their mortal bodies, they must find a way to conquer the divine realm of Journey to the West.

But they were afraid of rushing in and dying in the divine realm, so they came up with the idea of ​​using these cannon fodder to scout ahead.

These grandmasters at the Innate Realm, in the hands of demons who have cultivated for millions of years, would probably only get the evaluation of having "firm flesh" at most.

Luo Guangtou personally delivered the official documents to them.

There are other experienced Divine Realm cultivators over there, providing final guidance to students entering the martial arts world before they reach the Divine Realm.

"Dear students, the Divine Realm has been opened. Next, I will arrange specific worlds for you. This is your school, and based on your daily personality and strengths, I will recommend the best Divine Realm."

"Remember, although your teacher has chosen divine realms for you, you must still be cautious once you enter. These worlds are a mix of opportunity and danger! One wrong move and you could perish!"

"Zhang Xiao, Li Chen, Wang Xin... Students whose names are mentioned above can go to the Divine Realm of Archery and choose the time point as the eve of the Mount Hua Sword Tournament."

"During this period, the martial arts world of the Central Plains is in turmoil. You can choose to join the Quanzhen Sect, which is the orthodox school of Xuanmen, providing a solid foundation. Those who like esoteric arts can try going to Peach Blossom Island, but they need to be exceptionally talented and pass the test of the island's master, Huang Yaoshi. If you are not particularly talented, you can choose the Beggars' Sect, where you have the opportunity to learn top-level martial arts, such as the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms!"

"For those of you whose names I've mentioned, I suggest you go to the Divine Realm of The Smiling, Proud Wanderer. Choose the time just before the Fuwei Escort Agency was wiped out. At this time, the martial arts world is in turmoil, and you can try to join famous sects such as Huashan Sect, Shaolin, or Wudang."

"Shi Yun, Wu Yao, Wang Rui... students whose names I've read out, I suggest you head to the Flying Knife God Realm..."

Seeing the envy in the children's eyes, Luo Guangtou clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention.

"Don't envy them. If you can achieve something, your starting point will be much higher than theirs. Come with me, everyone..."

He led Ning Chen and the others to the depths of the starry sky.

Here lies a vast scroll painting, where one can vaguely see celestial mountains swirling around and the phantoms of gods and demons appearing!

Two huge golden characters float on the scroll: Journey to the West, and below them is a line of numbers: 3/81!

This is precisely the entrance to the Journey to the West world, which is listed as a forbidden divine realm.

"As you can see, the Journey to the West Divine Realm has a total of eighty-one levels. Currently, humanity has paid a huge price and has only managed to conquer the third level. As time goes by, the Divine Realm is gradually showing signs of getting out of control. You should all know about the tragedy that happened in the Sakura Country a few days ago."

Many students nodded; they had seen the video online.

A gigantic, elephant-shaped monster, thousands of feet tall, could send countless humans flying into its mouth without their control. Among them were even innate experts from the Sakura Kingdom, who were powerless to resist.

"Therefore, everyone, do not be afraid of difficulties. In a sense, you are all protecting your country!"

"I promise you here that if you all return safely, even with just a little bit of news, there's a chance you could be admitted to Peking University!"

Upon arriving at Peking University, some students couldn't help but light up and their breathing quickened. It was the best university in the country, and graduates were guaranteed direct access to key government departments.

"The mechanism of this divine realm is very special. The first level, also known as the novice level, is extremely dangerous, but you can only stay for one year the first time you enter. After that, you can return to the first level and spend another year after passing each level."

A student raised their hand to ask a question.

Why is this happening?

Luo Zhantian shrugged.

"The specific reason is currently unknown to everyone..."

"In short, that's the situation. Good luck, and I wish you a safe return to the mortal world. The first time in the Divine Realm takes a year. There's a time difference between the Divine Realm in Journey to the West and the mortal world. Only one month has passed here on Earth!"

Luo Shen clapped his hands.

"Okay, who wants to go first!"

"I'll go first!"

Ning Chen couldn't wait to enter this world of immortals and demons.

He strode out of the crowd and, under everyone's gaze, disappeared straight into the painting!

The enormous painting shimmered and flickered a few times, and Ning Chen had already vanished!

"Oh, this kid's got some guts!"

Luo Guangtou's eyes flickered slightly as he silently memorized Ning Chen's name.

As a ninth-tier innate grandmaster, he has already reached the limits of the human physical body...

However, even grandmasters have different levels of attainment; his current level is the "sitting in contemplation and entering the divine realm."

Once one reaches the state of "sitting in meditation and entering a state of divine awareness," one can sense the future. Even if a sniper rifle is aimed at him from several kilometers away, he can immediately sense the danger and avoid it.

Luo Zhantian had a vague feeling that the method to transcend the Grandmaster level might lie within this child.

The scenery before his eyes changed rapidly, and Ning Chen found himself on the ground in an ancient market.

He was dressed in a gray coarse linen coat that suited the era, and wore straw sandals. He was surrounded by vendors hawking their wares!

This is the mechanism of the divine realm, which will integrate these travelers into the society of that time as much as possible.

Ning Chen immediately recited the mantra in his mind.

"Properties panel!"

A blue attribute box suddenly popped up in front of his eyes.

[Divine Realm Walker: Ning Chen]

[Base Bone: 26]

[Physique: 22]

[Comprehension: 38]

[Lifespan: 18/78]

[Technique: None]

Ning Chen nodded slightly.

Sure enough, once you enter the Divine Realm, you can become a Divine Realm Walker and obtain an attribute panel, which has absolutely nothing to do with the innate talent and physique that the school talked about.

He has been working hard to train his body on Earth.

Unfortunately, his classmates were even more ambitious than him. Not only were they ambitious, but they were also able to spend a lot of money to buy the pills and rare treasures brought back to Blue Star by the Divine Realm Traveler. Their attributes were already far superior to his.

As he closed the properties panel, the cacophony of vendors' calls from the surrounding market filled his ears.

"Steamed buns, steamed buns, two for one coin!"

From a two-story building on the street, a woman dressed in a flamboyant manner called out in a sweet voice.

"Steamed buns, steamed buns, big, white steamed buns! One tael of silver can last for two hours!"

Ning Chen chose to land in a city in Xihe Niuzhou. He stopped an old man and bowed to him.

"Old man, I pay my respects. Do you know of a sacred mountain nearby called Fangcun Mountain?"

The old man looked him up and down, stroked his white beard, and shook his head with a smile.

"Young man, are you heading to Fangcun Mountain to learn a trade? I see you're still quite healthy. I advise you not to be too ambitious. Find a blacksmith shop and learn a trade so you can support your family!"

Ning Chen was both surprised and delighted. He was delighted because, according to the old man, Fangcun Mountain was nearby.

What's surprising is why the old man had such a low opinion of Fangcun Mountain.

An older woman selling fish nearby overheard the two talking and angrily interrupted.

"Yes, there's a kid in this village who went to Fangcun Mountain to learn martial arts for over thirty years. He left home young and returned old, only to find he'd learned the art of walking through walls. A few days ago, he was arrested for committing crimes, defiling many young wives and daughters, and was taken to the yamen. He'll be executed soon!"

At this point, the fishmonger was overcome with grief and tears began to fall.

A middle-aged vegetable vendor nearby chuckled.

"Aunt Yu, the immortal has warned your son that he must never use the Taoist arts he has learned for illegal activities, otherwise he will surely face death. You can't blame the old immortal for that!"

He then looked at Ning Chen and offered some words of advice.

"Young man, in our town, there are at least eighty to a hundred people who went to Fangcun Mountain to learn martial arts, but most of them wasted their time and learned only one or two minor skills that are not very useful. I have never heard of any of the disciples taught by Fangcun Mountain who are truly capable."

Ning Chen smiled without saying a word.

As a time traveler, how could he not know that Patriarch Bodhi possessed great magical power and supernatural abilities?

Unfortunately, before Bodhi Patriarch met Sun Wukong, the disciples he took in were all of low aptitude, each one a mere mortal.

Even a skilled cook cannot cook without rice, and rotten wood cannot be carved. Even if the Bodhi Patriarch taught with dazzling eloquence and silver tongue, how much could these disciples, with their limited innate talents, possibly comprehend?

Bodhi Patriarch was well-versed in Confucian, Taoist, and Buddhist practices, and was able to teach according to individual aptitude.

However, if the disciple does not have the aptitude of a monkey, he may not be able to learn great supernatural powers such as the Great Celestial Immortal Technique and the Seventy-Two Transformations of Earthly Fiends.

Ning Chen knew the intricacies of the matter and naturally wouldn't bother arguing with these ordinary people. He asked for directions to Fangcun Mountain and arrived at its foot in just half a day.
