Forced to walk in the world of anime

Take those original inheritors, for example. They felt something in their hearts for some reason. Yes, they had the most powerful opportunities of this era. Logically speaking, they should be above everyone else. Why were they trampled underfoot by this brother and sister? This shouldn't be!

But upon closer reflection, although they made tremendous progress every day after receiving this opportunity, it seemed that they practiced diligently less often. They were no longer the reckless, fearless practitioners they used to be, pushing themselves to the limit without a second thought. This was because, unknowingly, the idea began to rise within them that they were the strongest in the world and no one could surpass them.

The middle-aged man in the military green coat on the stage nodded slowly, muttering to himself, "It all seems like a bunch of nonsense, but upon closer inspection, there seems to be something to it. But I'm curious, did this young man really create this strength with his own hands? This kind of strength can't be achieved with just hands!"

The middle-aged man shifted his gaze and looked at Chu Xi'er, who was smiling. "This little girl is extraordinary. She got to this point entirely through her own talent. She didn't have any special opportunities or work hard. She just relied on her talent. It would be very interesting if this kind of talent were applied to the original inheritor. But nothing is perfect. Being able to grasp even one aspect is already so powerful."

A moment later, Chu Xing continued arguing because he found that although the first few sentences were quite awkward, the rest of the conversation flowed more and more smoothly, as if the thousands of onlookers in front of him were not human, but rather like trees, grass, and flowers.

Since that's the case, then naturally he can brag about anything, or perhaps he was brought here to talk just so he could brag a bit. He could talk about the fortuitous encounters he's had on his cultivation path, and so on.

However, to be honest, it's not appropriate for Chu Xing to reveal all his fortuitous encounters! Should he just blurt out that he's a transmigrator who can travel through various dimensions? That would be absurd!

But nowadays, which young person hasn't read hundreds of novels? They can easily make up a set of events from fantasy novels and make it seem real. At least, no one would doubt it.

Finally, Chu Xing repeated what he had just said, summarizing it before making his escape. The situation was now in the hands of the seven top-tier forces.

Organizing such a competition is certainly not just about the competition itself. Afterwards, everyone gathers for a meal to discuss future trends, which is also an important purpose. After all, the top leaders of various countries don't have much free time to sit together. Since it's a rare opportunity to sit together, let's cherish it. Perhaps through this communication and discussion, we can change many things?

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Chu Xing cast a buff that reduced his presence and quickly slipped out of the crowd.

"Qin Shou!"

"Hey! Boss!"

Qin Shou, who was still looking around, was suddenly called out to by someone. He immediately turned around and saw Chu Xing leading Chu Xi'er to his side.

"Boss, where did you come from? I can't see you anywhere." Qin Shou scratched the back of his head, somewhat puzzled. He had been watching Chu Xing the whole time, but strangely, he just couldn't notice him anymore.

Chu Xing waved his hand, indicating not to dwell on such matters, and said, "Don't worry about the details. But we have to go now. This was a big deal; we even got first place. Holy crap, I don't know how many copies of my photo will be printed and distributed all over the world. I'll really be famous worldwide in just one day."

"Yeah..." Qin Shou nodded. Then, a glint flashed in his eyes, "Boss, if I remember correctly, this competition is the world's top competition, right? It's also a rare event that gathers all kinds of supernatural ability users. If you can get first place, does that mean you're the world's number one supernatural ability user?"

"Yeah, you're really smart, that's it! Are you suddenly feeling a lot of pressure? Turns out, the person you sleep with all day long is actually the number one in the world." Chu Xing replied with a smile. He knew he had gone too far with his bragging this time. He originally planned to get into the top 10 or 15 and then run away, but things just kept happening one after another. He left so quickly, and suddenly he became number one! Holy crap! Plans really can't keep up with changes.

Such actions will inevitably lead to many people having different opinions of him, because people who were originally on the same side suddenly stand at an infinitely high level, to the point that they can't even look up to him, which makes people feel humble and insignificant.

"If I'm not mistaken, this competition probably isn't just about the supernatural..."

Chu Xing muttered to himself, "I can only wait and see!" He just hoped that since she was his girlfriend, she wouldn't see him as an oddball. However, someone like Wen Xiaohua would definitely be fine with him, because in their hearts, Chu Xing was an incomparably powerful being.

"I really didn't expect that..."

Qin Shou sighed. Indeed, it was truly astonishing to suddenly discover that his cultivator friend was actually the world's number one superhuman!

"but…"

Qin Shou, chin in hand, suddenly lost all his seriousness and burst into laughter, saying, "Wow! My boss really is number one in the world! Waaah, I'll never be bullied again. As long as I tell them that my boss is number one in the world, let's see who can bully me then. I'll walk with my head held high from now on."

###495. A Sudden Anomaly!###

"You're kidding me."

Chu Xing was both amused and exasperated. Honestly, why would he think that this fat guy would become distant because he won first place? They'd been roommates for so long; the bond between men might not be brotherhood, but it was still good friendship. Since they were good friends, why would he feel inferior because of their different statuses? Besides, the fat guy himself had a respectable background. Perhaps not as powerful as the world's number one, but in the world, he was still a towering figure!

"By the way, since you also know about the existence of the supernatural, I'll give you a copy too. Anyway, with the constant changes of the times, the old saying that the wealthy cannot cultivate will eventually collapse." Chu Xing slid his fingers through the space twice, and a small piece of pure white jade appeared in his palm.

"Is this... this the cultivation technique?" Qin Shou's eyes widened, and his tongue almost tied itself when he spoke. The small piece of jade in front of him left him completely bewildered, unsure how to use it. After all, he understood a little about the supernatural world, but that didn't mean he knew how to use the cultivation technique jade slip! Besides, cultivation technique jade slips weren't usually made up of individual pieces.

Chu Xing explained, "Just stick it on your forehead. Study hard and don't let this down. I picked it up from the next village. It may not make you extraordinary, but it can definitely make you take on ten people at once."

"Wow, thank you, boss! Thank you, boss!" Qin Shou cheered excitedly, his joy undisguised. After all, to uphold the worldly belief that the wealthy cannot cultivate, no one dared to give him a cultivation technique. Obtaining one through mere chance was also difficult, as cultivation techniques are extremely secretive and heavily protected. Even those that do circulate are often incomplete and unusable. Where are they so easily found? Keep in mind that Bai Yurou's family was even more powerful than Qin Shou's. Yet, despite her best efforts, she couldn't get her hands on one! She got it for free from Chu Xing!

Wait a minute!

Speaking of this woman…

Chu Xing looked towards the Chinese seats and saw a white-clad woman with a neat single ponytail standing there like a lotus flower rising from the mud, untouched by its surroundings.

Chu Xing stared for two seconds, then his eyes narrowed into slits. A thought struck him, and he wondered, "Why is Bai Yurou here too? And she's already at the sixth step! Is the seed I planted in her body growing this fast? I feel like her cultivation progress is even more terrifying than mine. She must have some kind of fortuitous encounter! But wait, the main power in her body still comes from me. Why is that? Why is she using my power to cultivate? Yet her cultivation speed is faster than mine!"

Chu Xing was also confused. He didn't care if he didn't know or not. He just wanted to run away first, so that those seven big shots wouldn't catch him in the act and make him give a bunch of nonsensical speeches to experience the joy of social death.

Can…

It seems like it won't be so easy to get away!

Click!

A bolt of lightning struck down, shocking everyone's hearts. Before they could even recover, they discovered that the entire Mount Hua had been enveloped in a transparent protective shield!

Is this supposed to protect them? No, no, no, no! Almost everyone here is already a superhuman, representing over 90% of the world's strongest individuals. What are you laughing at about protecting them? A few mushroom cloud bombs could destroy them in minutes. Their combined strength could pulverize this planet!

Do they need protection? No way! How could they?

Conversely, a protective shield can also become a barrier, imprisoning people inside!

"Wait, why is there a cover in the sky? Are we trapped?"

"No way, no way! I haven't done anything wrong!?"

"Are you kidding me? Don't you know that at least 90% of the strongest beings in the entire supernatural world are here? What need is there for protection? Even a small star hitting the Earth could blow it up."

"Then...we're locked up! No! I was just a bystander, please don't do this to me!"

"Damn, I was just joining in the fun!"

The idea that this protective shield was actually a prison-like barrier focused on people quickly went out of control. Large numbers of supernatural individuals, piloting specialized manned vehicles, flew to the edge of the barrier, attempting to break it down.

result…

Even if one of the inheritors made a move, the barrier remained completely unmoved. In fact, the powerful repulsive force immediately shattered the inheritor's internal organs, leaving him lying on the side receiving treatment.

"this--"

Everyone regained consciousness and dared not move. This was a matter of life and death; if even the inheritors were injured like this, what hope was there for the non-inheritors?

On the highest platform, members of the seven top-tier forces frowned as they looked at the barrier in the sky. Their first thought upon seeing this woman was whether one of their friends had created it!

Seeing that almost all the top figures from the seven major powers were standing here, I gave up on the idea. But then another question arose: besides the seven top powers, who else has the ability to create and secretly set up such a barrier?

That's quite intriguing!

Instead of everyone being so ignorant, only one person present saw something – Chu Xing!

The moment he saw the barrier again, his expression changed drastically. He exclaimed in shock, "This isn't something from this world! Yes, the operation of any cultivation technique in this world is the opposite of the operation of this barrier. A magic restriction? No, impossible! This comes from another world! A catastrophe... Could this be the catastrophe?!"

call!

As if in response to Chu Xing, the barrier gradually gained color, becoming a pure white. Suddenly, a huge shadow appeared within this pure white... no! It should be called a spacetime rift! And from this spacetime rift, a bewitching purple aura kept emerging, accompanied by five-meter and ten-meter-tall monsters that resembled both humans and beasts.

"Oh my god, monsters have invaded Earth."

Naturally, some people might have such thoughts upon seeing this, but they understand even better that it's merely a barrier. How could a barrier allow aliens to invade Earth? On the contrary, this barrier doesn't seem like a harmful entity at all!

Why do you say that?

Because immediately following this, a countdown appeared—[00:10:00]

ten minutes.

brush!

The barrier disappeared, and everything seemed as if it had never happened.

This...this is a prophecy!

And in the instant the barrier disappeared, Chu Xing also vanished from this world…

###496, East!! ###

"Holy crap, that hurts like hell!"

After traveling through the void for an unknown amount of time, Chu Xing suddenly sat down on the ground and cried out in pain.

His head was spinning, and for a moment he couldn't even see his surroundings clearly! This made him wary, but then a figure appeared, which made him breathe a sigh of relief!

Hi, long time no see! How have you been?

A figure with blue-green twin ponytails appeared before him, and a distinctive, ethereal, and melodious voice playfully rang in his ears.

Hatsune Miku?

Chu Xing was stunned for a moment, the cloudiness in his eyes gradually lessening, and a sliver of clarity returning. He then realized why he was here, and said, "Are we going to continue the time travel? Seriously, couldn't you at least give me a heads-up? Suddenly transporting someone here like this is terrifying, isn't it?"

Hatsune Miku pouted and crossed her arms: "Honey, you're someone with mid-stage Eighth Step strength! You really think you can just die like that?"

Why not?

Chu Xing retorted, then stood up and sat on the princess's bed, asking, "Tell me, where are we going this time? I want to find a world with high combat power!"

"Hey, so you finally realize the real world isn't safe, huh? Were you scared by some major disaster?"

Hatsune Miku smiled. Chu Xing's suggestion was exactly what she had expected. She wasn't just sitting idly in this little world every day. With her abilities, she could easily find out what Chu Xing was doing in the real world and what changes had occurred there.

"A major catastrophe..."

Chu Xing sat on the bed, chin in hand, deep in thought. He looked at the princess, who still wore a smile, and asked after a moment, "Do you know what the great catastrophe that happened in the real world is? And what about ancient civilizations? Why have I never seen any ancient intelligent races? Even if they went to explore other planets, they wouldn't leave no trace of life, would they?"

Hatsune Miku shrugged: "I wouldn't know about that. I don't pay attention to such trivial matters. But I can tell you that the ancient intelligent races on your side aren't actually that powerful. Only if you leave your world will you understand what true vastness and boundlessness means. However, with your current strength, understanding that wouldn't be meaningful. Keep going and try to break through your limits in the next world! You've noticed, haven't you? The only thing that can truly boost your strength is time travel. A few years in time travel is equivalent to more than ten or twenty years in the real world."

She leaped onto the bed, grinning at Chu Xing, and said, "So this time I've found you a world with extremely high martial arts levels, a very magical world. If you put in a little more effort in there, you might just graduate!"

"What world?"

Chu Xing asked. If he remembered correctly, when he left Re:Zero, Hatsune Miku had told him that the world he would travel to in the future would have a higher level of martial arts, but she didn't say how powerful it would be. However, he figured that the strong people there should have the strength of the ninth step or above.

"East!"

"Touhou? Touhou Gensokyo?"

Chu Xing was taken aback. Was the martial arts level in this world really that high? Hmm, it seemed so. The characters were truly outrageous; they were always fighting according to the rules, either able to change people's fates or achieve immortality. It was a scene of gods flying everywhere!

Hatsune Miku nodded her little head like a chick pecking at rice, and said, "Yes, but there are no bullet comments for you to play with in this world. It's a real world where the strong are respected! So Chu Xing, you need to know that there are no shortcuts. Only by relying on strength can you withstand the torment of those great monsters!"

"Torture by a great youkai? Surely not! While Touhou Gensokyo is full of powerful beings who fight according to the rules, their destructive power isn't that great. The demons in A Certain Magical Index destroy the world at will; their combat strength is much higher," Chu Xing asked.

"Are you completely immersed in the world of anime?"

Hatsune Miku rolled her eyes at Chu Xing and said, "I created all these worlds. If I were to destroy them all the time, would you even have a chance to appear? Sometimes, creating a world involves countless changes. If everyone's combat power is incredibly high, these changes could very well threaten my existence. I wouldn't be so reckless as to do that. So the A Certain Magical Index world you went to is a compressed version of my world. But even so, the combat power within it is still quite high. It's not bad that you survived it!"

"So, you'll be investing more resources in Touhou Gensokyo, right? And their strength will be greater than in the original story, right?"

"Yes, Chu Xing is so smart, so can we start the time travel now?" Hatsune Miku said with a smile.
