Let the true energy circulate for a while

……

Los Angeles Secret Service.

Clear skies.

The compound was filled with five experts from the Chinese Academy of Sciences and more than a dozen special operations personnel.

And there's Ouyang Zhaoming.

Qin Shifan initially wanted the old man to come and take a look. Although he was mentally ill, he could talk about the other world in great detail and knew Chen Ye. Who wouldn't be confused?

When science cannot explain something, the only recourse is to attribute it to metaphysics.

As soon as Chen Ye and his group got out of the car, they heard crying coming from the courtyard.

The group rushed in and stood frozen at the doorway.

Qin Shifan asked, "What happened?"

The secretary said, "He kept crying; he was very sad."

The white-haired old man sat on the ground, holding a jade lotus flower the size of a fist in his hands, and wailed loudly:

"Aaaaaah!"

"I said I couldn't become an immortal, but the book says that with jade flowers, one can become an immortal!"

"Ahhh~~ Ahh~ Now I have the jade flower, but why am I out of true energy?!"

"I am not Song Weiguo!! I am the head of the Weishan Sect! I am Ou-yang-Zhao-ming!"

"Aaaaaah~"

Several experts from the Chinese Academy of Sciences were discussing the matter nearby, some frowning and shaking their heads. These experts had been brought to Los Angeles overnight; two had just gotten off the plane and had only briefly glanced at the materials provided by the Secret Service. If it weren't for official backing, the researchers at the Chinese Academy of Sciences would have been cursing. Were they here to watch a performance by a mentally ill person?

Chen Jianbin asked, "Xiao Ye, was the sect leader like this before?"

Chen Ye sighed briefly: "When I was a child, I knew him quite normally, but later I became obsessed with the idea of ​​immortals and supposedly prayed to them for more than ten years."

Qin Shifan said, "According to the prophecy, true qi should be infused into the jade flower, but unfortunately, his body does not have true qi."

Muffled Blow: "It's quite difficult to hold back."

Qin Shifan asked, "Where is the other jade flower?"

Secretary: "They're conducting research in the temporary lab upstairs. The experts are also stumped; they haven't detected any unusual structures yet, and there's no definitive conclusion regarding the age and craftsmanship..."

"Take down the other jade flower and show it to Chen Ye."

The secretary turned around: "I'll go get it."

Qin Shifan said, "Don't go, keep talking." "Hey you, get the club!"

"Yes!" Men Gun accepted the order and jogged upstairs.

In the courtyard, Chen Ye walked forward, squatted down, and stroked Old Kui's back. "Sect Leader, let me take a look."

"Listen to me, I have true energy."

Ouyang Zhaoming wiped away his tears, somewhat reluctant to give it away, but in the end he still reached out and handed it over.

He said something that left everyone scratching their heads: "Young man Chen, I invited you to dinner before, do you remember?"

Chen Ye was a little taken aback, then chuckled and said, "Alright, alright, if you can really become an immortal, I'll bestow an title upon you."

Chen Jianbin also came over and joked, "What if he's one of the 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals? How do we best to appoint him? Make him a servant?"

Chen Ye held the jade flower and examined it. It was about the size of a fist, shaped like a lotus flower, and light green.

"You all step back."

Everyone tensed up and quickly stepped back, clearing a space in the yard. Only Chen Jianbin stood next to his son, looking somewhat worried.

"Dad, step back a bit."

"Won't something bad happen?"

Chen Ye said in a deep voice, "I won't feel at ease if I don't try. Dad, step back."

"What if the portal opens again and you're gone again?"

Chen Ye said, "I'm not an eight-year-old child. I won't go in this time."

Chen Jianbin: "I'll stay by your side and keep you company."

Chen Ye said in a deep voice, "Listen to me, and when we win the game, I'll buy you a big car and take you to eat ice cream at three-star restaurants."

"That's Michelin, okay... Dad, listen to me. Hey, how can you talk to your elders like that...?"

Chen Jianbin muttered something, then stepped back to the side, giving an awkward laugh: "It's normal for a son to grow up and not be under his father's control, right?"

Qin Shifan nodded: "A very reasonable explanation." He tilted his head and asked, "Why is it taking so long to get something? Why don't you call and urge him?"

The secretary had just taken out her phone when she saw something not far away—

He was holding another jade flower in his hand, and he was also wearing white gloves. He walked over and said, "You're here!"

In the Secret Service's courtyard, Chen Ye held the jade flower in his right hand, looked up at the sky, and wondered if it could really open the gates of heaven.

I just heard Qin Shifan say in the car that the accuracy rate of that prophecy book is not 100%.

He closed his eyes, focused his mind, and concentrated on his dantian.

Chen Ye circulated the Longevity Technique. In an instant, the true qi in his dantian rose up, passed through Shenque, pierced Zhongwan, gathered at Tanzhong, and ascended to Tiantu. He turned his shoulders and arms, descended to Yunmen, traveled along the inner arm, passed Tianfu and Xiabai, reached Chize and Kongzui, passed Lieque and Jingqu... and finally all of it gathered in the palm of his right hand.

A strange phenomenon occurred: the jade flower seemed to come alive and absorb true energy.

The originally pale green jade flower suddenly glowed with a faint, clear light from its center. The lotus petals gradually brightened, and the light grew stronger. The entire jade lotus quietly shone in his palm, radiant and gentle.

The white-haired old man was utterly shocked. "It's done! Hahaha! It's done! The ancestor was right!"

Old Kui ran towards Chen Ye like a madman, shouting as he ran, "The Heavenly Gate is about to open!! The Ancestral Master is coming to take him away!"

Everyone looked up at the sky, but there was nothing there.

"Look!!" someone shouted.

"It has special effects!"

A formation lit up beneath Chen Ye's feet, as if AI effects had been activated, and the formation was covered with densely packed talismans...

At the same time, the jade flower in Men Gun's hand also lit up, and array talismans appeared under his feet... Men Gun was completely dumbfounded.

After the formation lit up

In an instant, Chen Ye vanished from the spot, and the club also disappeared.

The formation also disappeared.

The scene was completely silent.

Qin Shifan cursed, "Holy shit!"

Old Kui looked puzzled and said, "This Heavenly Gate is different from what's described in the book. This isn't the Heavenly Gate."

Chen Jianbin's face turned deathly pale, and he trembled so much he almost couldn't stand. "No, no, no, this...my son!!"

Following the previous logic, the timelines on both sides seem to be different. My son was in prison for 16 years, but only 16 minutes have passed since he came out here. What if my son... Ahhhhh!!

Someone shouted, "Teacher Qin, the blunt weapon just disappeared too!!"

Many people's attention was on Chen Ye, and a few saw that the man's feet lit up and then he disappeared.

Qin Shifan was shocked: "What?!"

One expert exclaimed, "Check the surveillance footage! It's amazing! Those symbols are definitely worth studying!"

……

……

Woniuling is located at the junction of Zhennan and Yongbei. The mountain is not very high, but it stretches for more than ten miles and its shape resembles an old ox lying on the ground.

Legend has it that over a hundred years ago, a traveling physician surnamed Zhou passed through this place and left behind half a poem: "I will face a thousand pointing fingers with a cold eye, and bow my head to serve the children like an ox."

Later, the world was in chaos and the people were suffering. The itinerant doctor abandoned medicine and joined the army, plotting a rebellion! The name of Woniu Ridge was thus spread and became an interesting topic of conversation in the Yannan area.

In the woods, feeling dizzy and disoriented, he heard birds chirping. He slowly opened his eyes and found himself in an unfamiliar forest...

After glancing around, Men Gun realized he was in a forest. "Where the hell did I get here?!" His eyes were still wide with shock.

Not far away, a young man with long hair, dressed in sportswear, was seen rising and falling through the woods, seemingly walking on air.

As a special agent, he instinctively drew his gun, aimed, and the muzzle followed the person who knew kung fu as they moved sideways repeatedly.

"It's me! You're awake?"

After landing, Chen Ye opened the clothes containing several wild fruits and threw two wild rabbits and a roe deer on the ground.

Startled, Mengun holstered his pistol back on his waist and asked, "Where is this? How did we get here?"

"Don't move." Chen Ye pressed down on the shoulder of the thud and lowered his body.

A rustling sound came from the woods. Chen Ye peeled back a branch and saw a woodcutter.

"Don't move from here, I'll go ask."

Men Gun nodded stiffly. He saw Chen Ye walk forward and clasp his hands in a gesture of respect, just like the ancients. The woodcutter was dressed in ancient coarse cloth and seemed very curious about Chen Ye's clothes.

The distance was a bit far, and Mengun couldn't quite hear what they were saying. After exchanging words for a while, Chen Ye clasped his hands in greeting again and then walked over.

Men Gun, not yet thirty, had read novels back in high school. He asked in shock, "We...you mean...don't tell me we've time-traveled, okay?"

Chen Ye nodded. "This is Woniu Ridge, the border between Dazhen and Dayong. There are usually many bandits along the border between the two countries, so you need to stick close to me."

The man was shocked: "Is this a world you've been to before?"

Chen Ye tossed a wild fruit over, looking helpless: "I was here for 16 years, but only 16 minutes have passed in reality since I went back. I just asked the woodcutter, Emperor Dazhen, what year and month it was."

"I discovered that the time difference between my departure and the timeline is exactly the same, which means that the two timelines seem to be synchronized."

Chen Ye felt inexplicably happy. If his timeline synchronized with his hometown after he left, then his master, senior sisters, and senior brothers would still be there... It had only been less than a month.

She's here too, she's here too, she, she, and they are all here! Chen Ye's eyes held a complex mix of emotions: tenderness, fear, longing, and reminiscence.

Having read the information beforehand, Mengun knew roughly what was going on. He exclaimed in astonishment, "Brother, let's not talk about that now. Can we still go back? We have to find a way back!"

Chen Ye asked, "How did you get here?"

Men Gun said, "Old Qin asked me to go to the lab to get another jade flower. When I got to the courtyard with the jade flower, my feet started glowing, and then everything went black. When I opened my eyes again... Holy crap, I transmigrated, and it was a physical transmigration."

Chen Ye took out two lotus flowers. "Look."

The two jade flowers, one turned white after being infused with true energy, and the other remained a pale green.

"Hey, why did one of them change color?"

Chen Ye guessed, "Perhaps, this one that hasn't changed color can open the door back."

Men Gun nodded frantically: "Yes, yes, yes! Let's try it, and then we'll go back now."

Chen Ye said, "Just like before, you take one, and I'll take one."

"good!"

Muffled Brush asked, "Wait, mine is a different color, won't it be ineffective?"

Chen Ye said, "Why don't you infuse it with your true energy?"

With a pained expression, Men Gun grabbed Chen Ye's hand. "Can I hold your hand? It makes me feel safer!"

"Can."

In the woods, Chen Ye held Yu Hua in his right hand and led the burly man by the hand with his left.

He held another flower in his hand, looking nervous.

Chen Ye: "Are you ready?"

Muffled Blow: "Hmm! Come on."

"Good!" Chen Ye circulated his internal energy, and true qi surged from his dantian...

Muffled Blow: "Wait!"

"What's wrong?"

"I have a feeling something's going to go wrong," said Mungu.

He sighed and said in a deep voice, "If something really happens to me, and you can go back, please go to the 154 Hospital next to Heping Community in the western district of Lucheng and find a military doctor named Zhang Wanting. Just tell her that you don't need to pay back the 80 yuan you owe Shi Lei."

Seeing Chen Ye's blank expression, Men Gun continued:

"My real name is Shi Lei. When I was in kindergarten, my dad was diagnosed with leukemia, and my mom ran away with another man. Later, I moved into my second aunt's house, and less than a year later, they put me in an orphanage. After joining the army, I was spotted by the Special Service Bureau and followed Teacher Qin. I've been without any relatives or friends in this life. I was originally planning to treat Zhang Wanting to dinner after I finished this busy period, ha."

Chen Ye comforted him, "Don't be so pessimistic, cheer up."

Muffled Blow: "Hey, actually I'm still... well, what's commonly known as a virgin."

Chen Ye said, "My master once said: 'Good fortune may be the harbinger of misfortune, and misfortune may be the harbinger of good fortune!' My dad used to say: 'Always think that everything that happens is for my benefit.' Brother, do you believe me?"

"Believe what from you?"

"Alright, now that I've brought you here, I'll take you back!"

"I believe you!"

Chen Ye channeled his inner energy into his right hand, allowing the jade flower to absorb it. Instantly, the pale green jade flower shone with a clear light from its center, and the lotus petals lit up one by one...

The man with the blunt weapon looked delighted. "Great! It worked!"

An array appeared beneath Chen Ye's feet, and the next moment, he vanished from the spot.

The man who had been struck by lightning was left standing there dumbfounded, clutching another jade flower in his hand, when a gust of wind blew by...

The man, about to cry out, yelled, "Hey! What's going on?!"

"Don't mess with me, you're definitely just teasing me, aren't you?"

Answer me!

"Say something!!"

The only sounds in the woods were birdsong.

The man with the blunt weapon dared not run around and waited in place, imagining many terrible things that might happen.

So he was left behind, left in this strange world.

After waiting for about twenty minutes, there was still no response.

The man with the blunt weapon was going crazy, muttering to himself, "Damn it, don't mess with me!"

"I don't know martial arts!!"

"You don't know martial arts, huh!" A man jumped out of the woods. It was the woodcutter from before. He was holding a wood-chopping knife, and next to him was a burly, dark-skinned man with a full beard, carrying two large, ornate axes. He looked fierce and menacing.

"Is this the 'fat sheep' you were talking about?"

"That's the second-in-command, isn't he? Oh, there's another one?"

Men Gun was shocked. His hand reached for his waist and drew his sidearm, the safety clicking open.

The woodcutter raised his axe. "There was another person there just now, also dressed strangely!"

A burly, dark-skinned man carrying two large, ornate axes strode over.

"You little bastard! Hand over all your valuables and yellowish-white stuff, and then Grandpa will cut off your head!"

Men Gun remained vigilant; the other party's speech had a slight regional accent, but he could understand it.

"Are you bandits?"

The burly, dark-skinned man paused for a moment, then burst into laughter and slammed his axe into the ground.

"Grandpa is Zhang Kui from Woniu Mountain. What, haven't you heard of his fame?"

The woodcutter chimed in from behind, "Second Master, this fat sheep's clothes look strange, don't ruin them!"

The man with the blunt stick cried out in alarm, "Don't come any closer! I'm warning you, don't come any closer!"

Zhang Kui pushed off with both feet, his body lunging forward like a black bear, his two large Xuanhua axes whistling through the air as he cleaved towards Mengun's shoulder from the left and right.

The woodcutter also picked up his machete and followed behind, yelling.

A gunshot rang out, shattering the silence of the forest and sending flocks of birds into flight.

The burly, dark-skinned man was shot between the eyebrows, fell heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust; he was killed instantly.

The woodcutter's legs went weak with fright. What kind of martial arts was this?! How could it be so ferocious? He had heard that in the land of Nanyu, there once lived a Duan family master who could manifest his true energy and kill with a flick of his finger. But that was a legendary, unparalleled martial art; no one had ever seen it.

He aimed the gun at the woodcutter and got a hold of it.

The woodcutter then saw clearly that the other person was holding a dark object. Although he didn't understand what it was, he could sense that it was very strange!

The woodcutter raised his axe, intending to surrender... Bang!

He was shot between the eyebrows and fell to the ground.

Men Gun let out a long sigh of relief. He had executed prisoners before, but he still felt psychological pressure.

He tried to find humor in the situation, saying, "According to Chinese law, anyone who attacks a police officer with a weapon can be shot dead on the spot!"

"Chen Ye, where are you? Come back! I hate this world!!"

……

……

Meanwhile, in the Los Angeles Secret Service compound.

A light shone, and Chen Ye appeared.

"I'm back."

The people in the courtyard hadn't left yet, all staring wide-eyed. Chen Jianbin rushed up to them: "You scared me to death! How long were you stuck here this time?"

Chen Ye thought for a moment: "About half an hour?"

The experts whispered among themselves, marveling at the discovery.

Ouyang Zhaoming asked expectantly, "Did you go to the South Heavenly Gate? Did you see the Jade Capital?"

Qin Shifan felt something was missing: "Chen Ye, where's the ambush?"

"?"

Chen Ye looked around: "(⊙.⊙)"
