Chapter 36 An expert outside the world "Human race? Impossible? Human race should have ascended to heaven after surpassing the Spiritualization Stage and left this small world." Xiao Jing said with a smile, "From what I understand, this is what they have always pursued in the cultivation world. How is it possible that such people still exist?" "I don't know about this either!" Zi Xuan said frankly, "Perhaps there are some people who don't pursue the Way of Heaven, or perhaps there are secrets in this world that we don't know yet." "Sister, what you said is too unbelievable." Lan Lan thought for a moment and said, "We are almost certain that in this world, those who exceed the Spiritual Transformation Stage will be suppressed by the rules of the world. How can they do this?" "I knew you wouldn't believe me!" Zi Xuan said with a wry smile, "Then let me tell you about some of my experiences. Although you may be a little shocked by what I tell you, although the human race in the Small Thousand Worlds is no longer as powerful as it was in ancient times, there are too many strange people and strange things in the world, which is indeed unbelievable!" Next, under the two people's puzzled gazes, Zixuan did two things. One of them was what she experienced when she was exploring the ruins in Shuzhou. That day, when she was walking on the cliffs on the bank of the Yangtze River, she saw a man in white crossing the turbulent Yangtze River out of thin air. Xiaojing and Lanlan have been in China for so many years, and they all know that the Yangtze River is a giant dragon in China, with abundant water. The river is so wide that you can't see the end at a glance. The place Zixuan saw was at a big bend in the river. Later, she looked up information and found out that it was called Jianmen Gorge. Although Jianmen Gorge is only a few hundred feet wide, it is known as the Gate of Hell because of the mountains on both sides that are as sharp as swords and axes, the river surface suddenly tightens, the river water is as turbulent as a tiger, and there are many rapids and dangerous shoals. Even the most experienced old boatman will be nervous when passing Jianmen Gorge. However, even in such a dangerous place, the man in white crossed the river without any support. In front of the river that ordinary people feared like a tiger, he was as leisurely and comfortable as strolling in a garden. Zi Xuan was shocked and released her spiritual sense to deliberately explore, but she did not find any spiritual power fluctuations around him. So, the mysterious man in white crossed the Yangtze River in a chic manner and disappeared on the other side. Another incident happened at the seaside in Jiaozhou. Zixuan accidentally saw a bald old man in gray clothes fishing in the sea, with his bamboo basket half full of fish.
It was afternoon, the old man was leaning against a rock, half-closed his eyes and fishing. To be honest, people fishing like this were really common, there were several people fishing on the edge of the cliff. At first, Zixuan didn't care. She just passed by Jiaozhou to see the sea view and enjoy the sea breeze. But later, she accidentally saw him catch a fish and took off the hook. She was shocked. Although the distance was far, as a being in the Spiritualization Stage, her eyesight was amazing. At a glance, she found that the old man who was fishing didn't use bait, but a straight hook. In Chinese history, there have been people who used straight hooks to fish. During the Shang and Zhou dynasties, the hermit Jiang Ziya was such a master. The legend of "Jiang Ziya fishing, those who are willing to take the bait" is still circulating in the world today. At that time, in order to facilitate contact with the Shang Dynasty giant Xibohou, Jiang Ziya disguised himself as a fisherman and fished by the Wei River. However, Jiang Ziya fished during the day and discussed the world at night. The straight hook fishing was just a means to attract others. Jiang Ziya's purpose was to meet a wise leader and then be able to display his life's learning, not necessarily to catch a real fish. However, Zixuan actually saw the old man catch a fish with a straight hook, and he threw the hook and line into the sea again. At that time, she even doubted her eyes, and at the same time, her curiosity was aroused, so she stood in the distance and continued to watch. Soon, the old man caught another fish, took it off, and took a closer look. It was still a straight hook, so she believed it. Then she carefully checked the other people on the cliff, but they all used bait and hooks, only the bald old man in gray was an exception. Xiao Jing and Lan Lan were also shocked after hearing this. It was obvious that it was impossible for an ordinary mortal to do this. If they didn't have special skills, then Zi Xuan must have seen it wrong. "I have confirmed it repeatedly, so of course I am not wrong." Zi Xuan saw what the two were thinking and said with a faint smile. "Then how do you explain, big sister, that these old monsters who have passed the Spiritual Transformation Stage exist in the world?" Lan Lan asked, "Isn't this against the rules?" "Sister, you used your spiritual power to investigate, but didn't it attract their attention?" Xiao Jing asked in confusion. You know, some senior masters are eccentric and will not tolerate the random investigation of the juniors. "I don't know either. I've thought about this before. Maybe they don't want to argue with me too much. After all, I don't have any ill intentions. Or maybe, they may not be above the Spiritual Transformation Stage." Zi Xuan thought for a moment and said, "Of course, I mean not necessarily." "It doesn't necessarily have to exceed the Spiritual Transformation Stage?" Lan Lan sneered, "Then how can we achieve this?" Xiao Jing nodded after hearing this. It was impossible for someone to have this ability before reaching the Spiritual Transformation Stage. After all, she asked herself if she could do it. "Therefore, this is the key point of cultivation that I told you about earlier." Zi Xuan said seriously, "I have encountered a bottleneck in my cultivation recently, and I have thought about these things again. It is possible to do these things even if you are not at the Spiritualization Stage. For example, you who are at the Nascent Soul Stage!" "We can do that, too?" Xiao Jing shook her head, smiled bitterly, and whispered, "Big sister, you think too highly of us." "Of course we can! Otherworldly masters also become what they are through practice!" Zi Xuan showed a resolute expression, and continued, "I think if I can control my spiritual power properly and achieve a certain balance in the circulation of my body, I can naturally make myself as light as a swallow without revealing any spiritual energy." She thought about it, then used an analogy, "Like a balloon!" After hearing Zixuan's words, Xiaojing's eyes lit up, she lowered her head and said nothing, as if she had some realization. "This is indeed feasible in theory." Lan Lan thought about it and answered seriously. "It shouldn't just be theory. I'm trying it now, but I haven't done it yet." Zi Xuan said with a faint smile.
"Oh?" Lan Lan was quite surprised. She didn't expect Zi Xuan also wanted to learn this skill. "Then how do you explain straight hook fishing?" "As for straight hook fishing, actually, I can almost do it now..." "Sister, you can do it too?" Xiaojing and Lanlan were both surprised and their faces were filled with disbelief. Zixuan knew that they still didn't believe it, so she pointed her index finger at the flowers and plants beside her. Then she said to Lanlan and the others, "Now go and take a closer look." The two were confused and thought, what's so good about you just pointing a finger at something? A hand with three fingers bent and the index finger and thumb extended. Isn't this the gun that children play with? clap clap clap... Who can't masturbate and strike a pose? Why are you pretending to be a hermit? Despite this, the two of them reluctantly stood up and looked in the direction Zixuan's finger was pointing. "This?" The two stood up and took a look, their jaws almost dropped. In the direction where Zixuan's index finger pointed, Xiaojing and Lanlan saw a pinhole-sized hole on the grass leaf. Xiaojing and Lanlan looked surprised. They looked in the direction indicated and even looked at more than a dozen blades of grass. They found the same thing - there was a hole of the same size on the leaves of all the blades of grass. "Sister, how did you do that?" …… (End of this chapter)
