Chapter 86 The World Honored One Descends (4K, Please Subscribe)

Shanghai, Tianjing Temple.

"Amitabha Buddha, World Honored One, congratulations on your breakthrough to the Gang Jin realm. Throughout the entire Blue Star, even with a surge of spiritual energy, those who can reach this level are probably few and far between."

Now that you have reached this level, our Buddhist community will no longer be relegated to a lower level.

The abbot of Tianjing Temple clasped his hands together, looking at the dignified old monk before him with a mixture of surprise and reverence.

The old monk did not reply, but simply stood in the main hall, gazing at the majestic and dignified golden Buddha statue inside.

"Thirty years ago, when I broke through to the Core Formation stage, my master said that as long as there was enough spiritual energy, my breakthrough to the罡劲 stage would be nothing more than a piece of cake, and there was nothing to congratulate me on."

"This humble monk has long heard that the World-Honored One is a born Buddha's son, and is naturally protected by the Buddha."

"No matter how well you praise it, it's better to find the clues about the God-Slaying Sword."

A simple sentence caused the abbot of Tianjing Temple to break out in a cold sweat.

"Venerable One, this humble monk has recorded and stored the videos of everyone who entered the temple that day, and has checked their past records one by one. We have now identified more than ten people, three of whom are in Shanghai."

As soon as he finished speaking, he handed over several information sheets.

The Buddha took the information sheet and glanced at it.

The first picture is of a young girl who is beautiful.

"Gu Manyun...the daughter of the Gu family of Nanyang...the Gu family, isn't that the Gu family that has been worshipping the God-Slaying Sword for hundreds of years?"

He continued looking at the second picture, which showed a middle-aged man with a large belly and a wealthy appearance.

"Wang Chen, a real estate developer in Shanghai, has donated over ten million yuan in recent years and is a believer in feng shui..."

The Buddha turned to the last page, and this time, it was a young man.

"Lu Jingyun, founder of Jingyun Group, creator of energy potions... What's so special about this person?"

"This person is here to sell energy potions. His energy potions are very popular in the entire ancient martial arts circle. Long before the second fog, he already had a large group of top customers."

"I bought a bottle and tried it; it's comparable to the Golden Buddha Pill of my Buddhist sect."

"Um?"

The Buddha raised an eyebrow slightly.

The Golden Buddha Pill is a closely guarded secret of Buddhism, originating from ancient Buddhist texts. Even in the entire world, there are few forces capable of creating something similar.

Lu Jingyun's ability to create it was truly beyond his expectations.

"I will go and take a look. You'd better hope you can find the whereabouts of the God-Slaying Sword, otherwise, I will show you what the wrath of the Buddha is."

In the early morning, Lin Ye had just arrived at the school when he saw a commotion coming from the main road ahead.

"It's Lu Jingyun! Senior Lu!"

Who is Lu Jingyun?

"You don't even know him? Does Jingyun Group know about him?"

"Yes, I know. That's the pharmaceutical group that's been making waves in Shanghai these past few months. I heard their business is growing rapidly, and even before they've gone public, they're already valued at over 300 billion, and it's still growing..."

Wait a minute, Jingyun Group... Lu Jingyun, could that be his?

"That's right."

"Holy crap, didn't he just graduate not long ago? How is he already this good?"

"To be precise, he was already this good before he even graduated, because he only officially graduated last month, and he's also very handsome..."

"Ahhh...this is simply my Prince Charming."

Looking at this subordinate whom he had created from scratch, Lin Ye couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Back then, Lu Jingyun was just a kid who couldn't choose his own destiny, but now he's an outstanding alumnus of Shanghai University and a well-known entrepreneur in Shanghai.

All of this was simply something I had done by casually adding fuel to the fire.

"I can easily change someone's life with just a casual decision I make now."

Unfortunately, he himself is not interested in this kind of fame.

All he's interested in is becoming stronger!

Ten minutes later... in a classroom of the History Department at Shanghai University.

"According to the latest research, human civilization may not be just a few thousand years old, but may exist over a much longer period of time."

Archaeologists from various federations are currently discovering even more ancient cultural traditions in their respective cultural fields.

"The cultural sphere of Dongxia, Western civilization, Indian civilization, Southern civilization, and Islamic civilization... all have concrete evidence to support their claims..."

The lecturer was Zhuang Zhong, a professor in the History Department of Shanghai University, who is also one of the top historians in the entire Eastern Xia Federation.

It was already summer vacation, but we were called back to class because of a second wave of heavy fog.

After the second fog, martial arts training and awakening superpowers became the mainstream practices.

But this is a long-term project, so the Federation still retains many cultural courses.

Aside from mathematics, physics, chemistry, and information programming—things that are still very useful in the supernatural world—there aren't many other things left.

English, art, and other subjects were all eliminated, and even literature received a significant reduction in weight. In contrast, history was retained and remained a top-ranked subject.

Lin Ye suspected that the discipline of history might be part of a larger scheme orchestrated by the Federation.

Therefore, he sat in the corner of the classroom listening to the lecture, seemingly listening to the lesson, but actually scanning the other person's memory.

Lin Ye found a lot of information from the other person's memories.

That is, since the fog broke out, many hidden tombs have been discovered by federal archaeologists.

It was as if it emerged along with a thick fog.

Many of the artifacts were ancient and unlike anything they had ever seen before, greatly overturning their understanding and leading them to classify them as pre-ancient culture!

"Ancient culture..."

Lin Ye muttered to himself.

Therefore, the starting point for higher-dimensional civilizations might be these ancient cultures?

Lin Ye thought of the patterns; the process of creating patterns was complicated and had a variety of special effects.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to have special effects that allow one to hide their own existence.

The appearance of the fog increased the concentration of spiritual energy, which activated those patterns under certain circumstances, causing them to appear. However, Lin Ye's mood did not lighten; instead, it became more somber.

If such an ancient civilization truly existed, how did they manage to completely disappear from this world?

Such a powerful civilization would likely even contain beings at the God Realm, which are third-order life forms.

Lin Ye didn't think they would end up like in a certain tokusatsu series from his previous life, where battles led to their own demise and a cultural break.

"I...want to become even stronger!"

Soon, the class ended, the professor left, and everyone walked out of the classroom.

"Do you think this ancient civilization might be related to the supernatural?"

"It's very possible. I've heard that some extremely mysterious things have appeared in the ancient civilizations that have already been excavated."

"Damn, when will I awaken my superhuman abilities? I heard that seven people at our school awakened their superhuman abilities yesterday, and some of them were even admitted to the Federation on the spot."

Some people are unwilling to go, while tech companies want to hire them; being an Awakened is highly sought after right now.

"The point isn't about being popular. Now that superhumans have descended, without strength, you won't even know how you'll die."

Zhuang Zhong dialed a phone number as he walked toward his office.

"The Jinling Federal Branch, right? I'll take the high-speed train later... Yes, yes, I should arrive by 3 PM at the latest... Okay, that's settled then."

After he finished speaking and hung up the phone, he had already returned to his office.

Top experts like him all have their own private offices.

However, just as he entered his office, he was surprised to find a figure already there, looking at an ancient book he had collected.

This made him raise an eyebrow, and he immediately felt displeased.

"Who are you? Why are you in my office?"

Lin Ye closed his book and smiled calmly, "I'm here to discuss cooperation with you."

"Shall we discuss cooperation?"

Zhuang Zhong's expression grew even more displeased; he had come to regard Lin Ye as the kind of swindler who wanted to use his name to cheat and deceive.

Because he is not only a history expert, but also an expert on ancient artifacts.

The top-tier kind in the industry.

Therefore, people in the antique world often try to get him to endorse their products, hype up some worthless items, and then sell them for a high price.

A top scholar like him detests fraud and deception.

"Excuse me, I don't have time to discuss cooperation with you. Please leave immediately, or I'll call security."

Lin Ye wasn't angry, because this was a normal reaction.

He simply said, "Could it be... that Professor Zhuang doesn't want to learn more about the extraordinary culture of the ancient times? For example, ancient patterns, or ancient characters?"

'

This is what he just found by scanning the other person's memories.

Zhuang Zhong had already discovered in history books that the ancient patterns might hide some kind of secret, but as an ordinary person, it would be difficult for him to conduct further research.

This is why Lin Ye came to find him.

Lin Ye wanted Zhuang Zhong to search for all sorts of ancient artifacts, looking for patterns and characters, in order to further enrich his own intellectual abilities.

As expected, Zhuang Zhong's expression changed immediately after hearing Lin Ye's words.

"Who...who exactly are you?"

The same question, but the tone was completely different.

From initial annoyance and wariness, it transformed into a curious desire.

"Many people call me 'sir,' you don't need to know my background."

All you need to know is that I can solve your most desired problem, such as... granting you the ability to see through ancient cultures.

This is the ability that Zhuang Zhong currently lacks most and desires most.

Ancient cultures have surpassed the current understanding of the world, and even the most outstanding historians and archaeologists cannot fully comprehend them.

To put it simply, he was completely blind to the ancient culture he was exposed to; no matter how much he saw, he couldn't understand it, and having a gold nugget couldn't satisfy his hunger.

His solemn breathing suddenly became much heavier, but he didn't immediately believe him. Instead, he asked again, "Why should I believe you?"

"Is this... alright?"

A mental fluctuation emanated from Lin Ye's eyes, and Zhuang Zhong felt as if the whole world had changed.

Before his eyes appeared a colorful world with all sorts of strange patterns.

Some patterns resemble flames, while others resemble flowing water.

These strange patterns possess magical power, as if by using these characters one can summon the elements they represent.

A few minutes later, Lin Ye came out of the office.

"Done."

They've gained another top-tier professor-level subordinate.

Being solemn can help you acquire more ancient artifacts and knowledge, and this step is crucial.

No matter what kind of great horrors may have occurred in this world in the past.

Regardless of what kind of great horrors might occur in the world in the future.

As long as you are strong enough and can become infinitely stronger, you will have nothing to fear!

"Student Lin."

As Lin Ye was walking, he suddenly heard a familiar voice. He turned around and saw Lu Jingyun.

Now, he has taken off his suit and is only wearing a white shirt and a baseball cap, looking a bit like a school teacher.

"It really is you! I felt like I saw your back just now."

Lu Jingyun walked over with a smile.

"Hello, Mr. Lu."

Lin Ye responded calmly.

Lu Jingyun's smile faltered for a moment, then he said helplessly, "We haven't seen each other for just a few months, how come you're like this too? I was annoyed by them chasing me, so after finishing my business with the school, I changed my clothes and wanted to take a walk around the school."

I just saw you and came over to say hello.

Don't treat me like some kind of CEO; just treat me like a classmate.

Lin Ye was quite speechless about this guy.

He used to crave status, but now that he has it, he wants to experience what it's like to be an ordinary person.

As he walked forward, he asked casually, "Is there something you need?"

Lu Jingyun quickly followed.

"It's nothing. Are you still studying chemistry?"

"I take a look sometimes."

"Lin Ye, do you remember what I told you before?"

I've said it before: if you want to work at my company, I'll always reserve a good position for you.

The Federation has now publicly acknowledged the extraordinary, and the entire society is beginning to develop towards the extraordinary; from now on, it will be a world of the extraordinary.

Studying finance or anything else won't be of any use.

Why don't you come to my company? There, you have a good chance of awakening extraordinary powers.

Lu Jingyun extended another sincere invitation.

To be honest, this alone proves that I didn't misjudge him.

In terms of character, Lu Jingyun is flawless.

He did not look down on people because of his improved status, nor did he try to profit from his position or use his status to pressure others into doing things for him.

That alone suits his taste perfectly.

Of course, Lin Ye would never go to work at his company. Just as he was wondering if he should find another excuse, he suddenly stopped.

"Huh, why did it stop?"

Lu Jingyun looked puzzled and was about to ask a question when he caught a glimpse of a bald old monk out of the corner of his eye, following Lin Ye's gaze.

With just one glance, his heart skipped a beat.

The other person exuded a chilling aura, causing his heart to pound and his breathing to become labored.

That's a master!

Moreover, the other party did not deliberately suppress their power; they were coming for him!
