Chapter 720: Chapter 719: Sudden Omen, Spiritual Qi Revives

Since he had to wait for the Star Cloud Heavenly Path to be arranged, Li Jing, otherwise idle, decided to spend the next few days strolling around with Jiang Yini.

Life always needs a dash of spice.

Busy all the day, contemplating this and that, one also needs time to empty the mind.

Jiang Yini naturally would not object to this.

Living on Earth for these three years, without a doubt, was the most relaxed and leisurely time of her life.

Her life had, after all, been somewhat difficult.

As a former member of the Jiang family in Longyu Country, she bore a pressure unimaginable to ordinary girls. Stubborn by nature, she even chose to leave home and struggle on her own.

Looking back on those years, even Jiang Yini herself felt she was foolish.

Why not just stay in the capital, with her father and six siblings to watch over her? Wasn’t that a better option?

But she chose to venture out alone.

That didn’t mean she was out of reach of the Jiang family.

She always had to be careful of her words and actions, in order to avoid tarnishing the Jiang family’s reputation or giving others a chance to take advantage of her.

Let’s leave aside her days on Blue Star.

After reaching the Immortal Realm, she chose to retreat and focus on improving her cultivation level as quickly as possible through bitter cultivation.

That was when she really didn’t even have time for her personal life...

Since coming to Earth, Jiang Yini discovered how easy and simple life could be.

Sometimes, she even feels.

It really didn’t matter whether Li Jing was there or not...

Of course.

She just feels that way, but doesn’t really believe it.

She could do without anything, but she still needed a man...

Only her man would indulge her unconditionally, staying by her side whenever she needed him.

Friends, sometimes, can indeed be depended on.

But why should anyone who’s neither kin nor kith, think of you all the time?

People too have their own lives...

Such realities, Jiang Yini, who had once struggled alone, knew all too well.

Considering that she had Li Jing by her side, Jiang Yini did not think about going anywhere special. She simply planned activities around her current residence.

"Plan", in this case, wasn’t anything fancy.

It was nothing more than eating, drinking, and playing.

And, of course, shopping.

It’s worth mentioning that.

Jiang Yini is now "sponsored" by Zero Organization, holding a black card with unlimited credit and no restrictions.

This was actually a gift from the Zero Organization to Li Jing.

In some respects, the Zero Organization was really generous.

But comparing to the value of what Li Jing handed over to the Zero Organization, a black card that only had an impact on the financial level was not worth mentioning.

After all, what Li Jing gave them could secure Hua Xia’s footing in the trend of the spiritual qi recovery in the future.

...

Before they knew it.

A week had passed.

Accompanying Jiang Yini, Li Jing also had a quiet and enjoyable time.

That evening.

At a roadside stall, Li Jing and Jiang Yini were eating a spicy hot pot, completely relaxed.

As they were eating, both of them suddenly felt something, frowning and looking towards the dusk sky.

At the same time.

"Boom."

A dull rumble of thunder resounded.

Hearing this noise, the pedestrians on the street all stopped and looked up, then quickened their pace.

The busy stall owner also looked up.

"Hiss, what’s going on with the weather? There’s no sign of a storm, but the thunder is rolling all of a sudden. Is it going to rain?"

Murmuring to himself, the stall owner didn’t care whether the rain would come or not, wiped the sweat off his forehead and put down what he was doing to set up a temporary tent for the outdoor stall.

Seeing this, Jiang Yini glanced over and leaned over to Li Jing, lowering her voice.

"Okay, so why do I feel like something big is about to happen?"

"Be confident and remove your feelings."

Li Jing responded.

Before his voice fell, a golden heavenly thunder suddenly cut through the sky.

The accident was so sudden that it scared everyone in the streets and alleys.

This lightning not only arrived suddenly but also shone so brightly.

Just for a moment.

The world, which was clearly in the twilight, was lit up to a level brighter than daytime.

Who on Earth has ever seen such a sudden and weird heavenly phenomenon?

Before anyone could react, a "boom" of a deafening explosion echoed in the sky.

In an instant.

Everyone in the street was deafened.

Countless building windows, relatively fragile, were shattered by the terrifying blast, and a large number of cars parked on the roadside set off their theft alarms in the blast.

Screams and panic spread through the streets.

The explosion deafened all people, and the windows of the buildings on both sides of the street were all shattered.

How could people not panic?

The nerves of Earth people are much more fragile than those of Blue Star People.

No one knew what was going on.

But the unknown is often the most frightening thing.

Seeing the entire street in chaos, plenty of customers at the food stall were so scared that they ran onto the street blindly following the crowds running around, and several traffic accidents occurred near the roadside. The stall owner promptly took out his phone.

He was scared too.

But compared to those blindly fleeing people, he was much calmer.

Without any hesitation, he chose to dial the emergency number, the stall owner found a busy tone coming from the phone.

Then he realized.

The sudden accident affected not only his stall’s location but also a much larger area than he imagined, the emergency calls had been made explosively!

This...

What should we do now!?

He didn’t notice.

Apart from a few customers who were scared stiff and didn’t dare to move on the stall, there were two people sitting there who were exceptionally calm.

On the chaotic street.

Screams and cries resounded one after another.

Some people got hurt and fell to the ground, some sat paralyzed on the ground, and some got trampled on by the chaotic crowd.

Jiang Yini, upon seeing all this, turned her head resolutely.

"Li Jing, do something quickly."

Upon hearing this, Li Jing fell silent for a moment, then sighed lightly and nodded.

With a move of his mind, an invisible ripple swept out from him as the center, instantly sweeping across the entire Earth, and then the whole world calmed down.

The Spirit God whispered.

Li Jing took control of all living beings, including humans, but did not make them lose consciousness.

Instead, he controlled their bodies and forcibly kept their minds clear, allowing all creatures to observe and feel what would happen next with clear consciousness.

Before the anomaly arrived, Li Jing already had a sense of it.

Something was coming.

It might be incomprehensible to Jiang Yini, but for him, there was absolutely no need to guess.

Earth...

No.

More precisely.

The spiritual Qi of the entire Star Nebula Great World was about to revive...

The thunder exploded.

It was the "signal" that the Upper Three Realms were to be restored, lifting the blockade and letting a huge amount of immortal spiritual Qi hit the Star Nebula Great World, which had been barren of spiritual Qi for billions of years.

This affects not only the street where Li Jing and Jiang Yini are located.

Not only is it a single Hua Xia.

Nor is it just the tiny Earth.

It’s the entire Star Nebula Great World...

Concerning this situation, Li Jing originally did not plan to do anything.

With the revival of spiritual Qi, the environments of the entire Star Nebula Great World, whether there are living beings or not, will undergo drastic changes. What comes next is to see who can adapt.

Survival of the fittest.

This is an immutable law of evolution.

If you can’t even bear a little shock from the resurgence of Spiritual Qi, how will you face the future world?

Of course.

If you say this is a trial given by the Star Cloud Heavenly Path to all beings, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration.

But in Li Jing’s personal opinion.

If someone dies due to the disturbance caused by the premonition of Spiritual Qi resurgence, it is merely natural selection, and he doesn’t have to intervene.

Li Jing retains his humanity.

But he believes this is what all beings, including humans, should face.

Only by facing these challenges, they can survive better in the future world.

One can be born in peace and die in worry.

In modern society, the lives of most people are overly comfortable...

Because of this, many have forgotten that the world is actually filled with unknowns and dangers.

Seeing how Jiang Yini can’t bear it, Li Jing can’t just do nothing. This would be a relatively moderate strategy.

Every being on Earth es has lost control of themselves, but their wills are extremely clear.

Compared to the fear brought by the previous explosion, their inner fear is even greater.

In one sense.

Li Jing’s actions had a counter-effect.

But because they couldn’t move at all, many accidents are avoided. Many beings who should have walked towards the end in panic survived.

In this way, the world became dead silent.

"Plop."

A drop of golden rainwater the size of a soybean fell to the ground, and immediately melted into it.

Following which.

It started to rain lightly across the world.

These raindrops were all golden in color.

Jiang Yini instinctively caught a droplet in her hand and was shocked to discover that this was not rainwater at all, but an extremely dense breath of immortal spirit.

Before she had time to look closely, the dense immortal spirit breathed quietly in her palm, turned into a large amount of basic spiritual Qi, and filled the nearby space.

The sound of the "Golden Rainwater" falling steadily.

The Spiritual Qi between the heavens and the earth gradually became richer because of this.

Meanwhile.

All kinds of extraordinary changes are happening in every corner of the world.

Some beings bathed in the dense breath of the immortal spirit and accidentally awakened their Spiritual Intelligence, taking the first step to become Spiritual Beasts.

Some beings turned into monsters on the spot, embarking on the road to becoming monsters.

Humans, as the beings that now dominate the entire Earth, also had many people who underwent various changes due to bathing in the dense breath of the immortal spirit.

Many people awakened some superpowers that would only be possible in movies or novels.

Some were extremely lucky to generate Spiritual Qi in their bodies directly. Even without knowing what Qi Refining is or having Qi Sense, they took the first step on the path of Cultivation—inducing Qi into their bodies—in a daze.

Disregarding the beings.

Plants, ores, etc., all showed some unique changes in the process of bathing in the breath of the immortal spirit, evolving into low-quality spiritual objects with infinite potential.

As long as they are not picked too early, they might even have the chance to transform into spirits in the future.

After all, they were the ones who bathed in the dense immortal spirit at the node of Spiritual Qi resurgence, and thus they underwent changes.

At the moment of their transformation, they were bound to stand out.

The other fortunate beings who transformed, including humans, were in the same situation.

Jiang Yini belongs to the Thirteen Realms.

Although she can’t control all beings in the world in the blink of an eye like Li Jing, her perception isn’t limited to a small area, so she naturally captured a lot of changes.

Feeling all changes in the meantime, Jiang Yini was sincerely awed by the mystery of the immortal spirit.

Suddenly.

She stiffened and looked extremely bad.

?

Seeing her unusual state, Li Jing turned around with a question mark.

"Yini?"

At this sight, Jiang Yini makes a choking sound.

"I-I seem to have had an epiphany."

Li Jing was slightly stunned when he heard this.

An Epiphany?

That’s a good thing!

Why does she look like she’s about to cry?

Before he could figure it out, the sky suddenly became extremely gloomy.

???

Li Jing looked up in confusion.

Huh?

Is this...

The tribulation cloud?

Stunned for a moment, Li Jing pulled a faint smirk and quickly opened his domain to include Jiang Yini.

Joking aside.

This is a bustling area.

Jiang Yini is about to step into the Fourteenth Realm.

The scope of her heavenly tribulation is huge...

If she were to cross the tribulation here, not only would Li Jing’s entire hometown ascend to heaven, but the nearby cities would also be hard-pressed to escape unscathed.

"You go ahead and cross the tribulation in peace. When it’s over, go to Chen Tang City and send word of my safety to Sisi and the others," Li Jing quickly told Jiang Yini before closing off his spiritual field.

Based on the years he spent in the Universe Great World after crossing over, he calculated that it must have been decades since he and Jiang Yini arrived on Earth.

The fact that Liu Sisi and the others hadn’t asked anything or searched for him in the Little Universe wasn’t due to their carelessness, but rather because they were all in seclusion.

They were used to Li Jing wandering off.

Not seeing him occasionally was normal.

And they all knew one thing.

As long as the Little Universe existed, so did Li Jing.

If there were any problems, Ling Ling, who shared a Symbiotic Contract with someone, would tell them.

Li Jing’s move was mainly to prevent them from having various questions from not seeing him for too long.

After sending off Jiang Yini, Li Jing looked up at the sky with a hint of envy.

Indeed, having talent was good.

This rain was truly special.

But the idea of him having an epiphany under the rain as Jiang Yini did, advancing from the Thirteenth Realm straight into the Fourteenth Realm, was something he wouldn’t even dream of in his lifetime.

While he was contemplating, a small white-haired loli, no taller than one-point-two meters, who represented the Star Cloud Heavenly Path, quietly appeared beside him, where Jiang Yini had originally been.

"You’ve been enjoying yourself on Earth. While I told you to get ready, all you’ve been doing is accompanying women," she accused.

"Don’t I have nothing to prepare?" Li Jing retorted.

The Star Cloud Heavenly Path shrugged, with both hands behind her back she tilted her head.

"I directly opened the Upper Three Realms, causing the revival of spiritual Qi. Why do you seem so unsurprised?" she asked.

"Why should I be surprised?" Li Jing counter-questioned.

"I can’t figure out a woman’s mind, let alone the will of the Heavenly Path. Not guessing means there are no surprises; whatever happens, happens," he responded.

Hearing this, the Star Cloud Heavenly Path stifled a laugh.

"Don’t just accept whatever happens as it does. Don’t you want to make it sound more meaningful?" she stated.

Then, she was suddenly serious.

"We can start now," she declared.

"Hmm,"

Li Jing nodded, waved his hand to tear through the space, and stepped through.

The next second.

He was alone in the XiX Divine Domain.

Following that, with a thought, he opened his domain to cover the entire XiX Divine Domain.

???

At this moment, all the XiX God Clan members left in the Divine Domain were baffled.

They had never experienced being covered by a domain and didn’t believe that anyone could do such a thing.

However, the impossible just happened.

How could they not be bewildered?
