Chapter 171: Chapter 170: Hopping Back and Forth on the Edge of Destruction

Translator: 549690339

When Abu learned about the gap between the Nine Provinces world and his own, he couldn’t help but be doubtful.

Isn’t asking the Human Emperor for help an overkill?

“Abu, do you remember how to cultivate?” questioned his academy teacher.

He noticed Abu’s internal energy channels were a mess. If it wasn’t for the teacher’s timely intervention to comb through them using his Nascent Soul Stage cultivation, Abu’s body would have been destroyed. It would require a medicinal pill worth twenty low-grade Spirit Stones to heal him.

Abu was seriously injured by the residual effects of a battle between his father and the twelve kings. He looked neither like a martial artist nor a cultivator, so the teacher didn’t have any suspicions.

Here it comes, thought Abu, who stiffened at the thought. In their world, to learn martial arts, one had to undergo numerous tests, swear blood oaths, and labor for three years, among other things. The cultivation techniques in this world were even more powerful, surely they would require even more stringent tests.

Not to mention that this was an existence at the Nascent Soul Stage. In his own world, this person would be a land deity, his test would surely be…

Seeing Abu’s stunned expression, the teacher pulled out a manual, “Poor child, you’ve even forgotten how to cultivate. Here, take this Manual of Spiritual Energy. If there’s anything you don’t understand, just ask me.”

Abu held the easily obtained Manual of Spiritual Energy in his hands, silent for a long time before he dropped to his knees.

“I pledge my loyalty to you, my master. I swear I will regard you as my father from now on, and I will never betray you…,”

In Abu’s world, to learn such martial arts secrets, one had to become a disciple and serve for life, never to betray. Violating the master’s orders meant climbing a ladder made of blades and walking on red-hot iron plates.

His father was the peak of humanity, so naturally, Abu didn’t need to do any of this, but he understood the rules.

“No need, no need, no need,” the teacher said, startled by Abu’s reaction. He repeated it three times. This Manual of Spiritual Energy is only worth one low-grade Spirit Stone. Was such a big reaction necessary?

The teacher hurriedly helped Abu up.

He was a teacher in the academy, not an elder from a sect. There was no need for such formalities.

After hearing the teacher’s explanation, Abu looked stunned.

Was this secret manual, which could train one to be a natural-born martial artist, really so worthless in this world? Torn, Abu finally decided to reveal everything. “Teacher, actually, I come from another world…”

Jiang Li was studying a new task issued by the system.

A task that suddenly popped up, promising the reward of a fragment of the Ascension Stairway without doing anything.

In the past, it was because of the Ascension Stairway fragment allowed time to flow backwards that the system detected the fragment’s reaction and released the task.

But this time…

Jiang Li pondered. Perhaps this was the genuinely significant “Finding

Ascension Stairway Fragments” task.

The case with Luo Ying was purely by accident; without his ability to freely travel to other worlds, he could not have triggered a special task.

The system has released regular tasks before; things like he was a Gold Core Period cultivator, that he should participate in poetic gatherings and then gain fame, stunning everyone.

Because the rewards were not very interesting, it was only things like Spirit Stones and Spirit Beast Eggs. Moreover, it was not a must-do task, so Jiang Li chose to abandon it directly.

Looking at it this way, the broken system still insisted on considering him as a Gold Core Stage cultivator.

Also, as the system stated, there was one free opportunity for inter-dimensional travel, clearly intended for a Gold Core Stage cultivator.

This task should have been released five hundred years ago.

In other words, the so-called Twelve Kings mentioned in the task were probably just at the Nascent Soul Stage or at most the Divinity Transformation Stage.

Jiang Li, flying towards the universe, found Bai Hongtu and others playing a snowball fight with meteorites.

They were tossing around meteorites that were kilometers long, looking extremely shocking.

Restoring the planet was no problem for the four of them. They had completed it a long time ago. When they were about to return to their respective sects and dynasties, Bai Hongtu suggested: “Let’s have a snowball fight.”

Everyone said they were not kids anymore, so no, thank you.

Regardless, Bai Hongtu did not listen, and with a cheerful smile, he picked up a meteorite and threw it at the Sword Monarch…

And that’s how it ended up as Jiang Li saw it now.

Luckily, they were really just playing and had not started fighting. Otherwise, once again, the Nine Provinces would have witnessed the spectacular “Transcendance Tribulation Stage Showdown.”

Seeing Jiang Li there, everyone quickly stopped, indicating that the meteorites were flying on their own and had nothing to do with them.

“There’s an opportunity to go to another world. Who wants to go?”

“Which world? The Ming Zhong world or the zombie world?” Bai Hongtu was intrigued. Yu Yin listened on the side.

It was evident that Yu Yin was also interested.

“Neither. It’s an unknown world. I have never been there, and I don’t know what’s it’s like over there. Interested?”

Previously, Jiang Li didn’t bring people to other worlds because they couldn’t traverse the Void. Now, with the Brahma Heaven Tower, it was easy to carry people through.

“Of course, when do we start?” Bai Hongtu couldn’t wait.

“I’ll go too.” Yu Yin answered in a cold voice.

“The two of us will pass.” Sword Monarch and Li Er declined.

They weren’t interested in other worlds. Sword Monarch was dedicated to his pursuit of Sword Dao. If other worlds didn’t have Sword Dao, there was no point wasting time there.

Li Er pursued powerful existences to integrate into his own body. If other worlds didn’t have anything stronger than him, he had no need to go there.

Unless that world was the Immortal Realm.

Bai Hongtu and Yu Yin, who were five hundred years old, were very interested in new things.

“Don’t rush. I am just giving you a heads up. I’ll go check it out first, then bring you guys over,”

Jiang Li knew these two would want to go.

“Transport to the Ring Universe.”

[Confirming host’s use of transport opportunity, transporting to Ring

Universe]

Under the watchful eyes of the four Transcendance Tribulation Stage cultivators, Jiang Li disappeared.

“Even though it’s not the first time I’ve seen it, I still have to express my admiration. Jiang Li’s understanding of the Dao of Space has seen incredible growth,” said Bai Hongtu.

Yu Yin nodded again and again.

Back when they were competing for the title of Human Emperor, Jiang Li’s understanding of the Dao of Space was even weaker than hers. It seemed that as his cultivation improved, his understanding of the Dao of Space also increased.

“Is this the Ring Universe?”

Jiang Li arrived in the new world, somewhat surprised. He had thought he arrived in a market from the Nine Provinces.

Although the people here looked slightly different, they also wore ancient clothes, with people coming and going. There was a constant noise of haggling, and even Jiang Li’s favorite candied hawthorns were available.

In the previous Ming Zhong World and Zombie World, the technological level of the two worlds was stronger than that in the Nine Provinces. This almost convinced Jiang Li that all the worlds he would go to have advanced technology.

So, it turns out there are places just like the Nine Provinces.

“This seems to be a world that practices martial arts.” Jiang Li found that the average level of people in this world was somewhat lower than the Nine Provinces.

“Where are the twelve kings then?” Jiang Li wondered.

The system description mentioned that the Twelve Kings brought the world to the brink of destruction, so he assumed this world would either already be destroyed or be embroiled in constant wars, not far from destruction.

After all, it had been five hundred years since the system released this task.

In five hundred years, surely this so-called Twelve Kings had already done something.

Could it be that this world had been on the brink of destruction, swinging back and forth for five hundred years?

A picture unconsciously surfaced in Jiang Li’s mind:

A figure with a face that read “Ring Universe, ” bouncing from the left side of a black line to the right, then back from the right to the left.

“Eh, I’m going to be destroyed.” “Eh, I’m fine again.”

“Eh, I’m about to be destroyed again.”

How do you put it? It felt like a bit of a slap was needed in the face.

“Excuse me, do you know about the Twelve Kings?” After learning the language of this world using Divine Sense, Jiang Li asked a passerby.

The passerby looked at Jiang Li curiously.

“Of course, aren’t the Twelve Kings our rulers and saviors?”
