Chapter 528
by fanqienovelChapter 528: Want to Try
In Blue Mountain City, He Li looked around in confusion.
“Where am I?”
He Li distinctly remembered that he was on his way to inspect a key provincial enterprise, so how did he suddenly end up in what looked like an ancient city?
Have I transported? Or is some ancient film crew playing a prank?
If it’s a prank, which crew would dare to prank a provincial governor?
“Hmm? There is no spiritual energy here?”
He Li quickly noticed that there wasn’t a trace of spiritual energy.
He Li had the lowest level of spirit root talent, so he didn’t spend time on cultivation. Now, at nearly fifty years old, he was only at the Foundation Establishment stage.
However, due to his cultivation, even though he was over fifty, he looked like he was in his thirties.
“Governor He?”
Suddenly, a surprised voice rang out.
He Li turned around and was equally surprised: “General Hou?”
“Governor He, where is this? How did we suddenly appear here?” Hou Shuming asked He Li in astonishment.
“I don’t know! I was on my way to inspect, and in the blink of an eye, I ended up here.”
Pausing for a moment, He Li asked Hou Shuming, “General Hou, how did you suddenly end up here?”
“I don’t know either! I found myself here in the blink of an eye,” Hou Shuming replied with a grin.
“Governor He, General Hou?”
Suddenly, another voice sounded in their ears.
They turned to see several people looking at them with joy.
“Academic Luo, Academic Gu, you’re here too?” He Li exclaimed.
Academic Luo and Academic Gu were academicians from the Cultivation Alliance’s scientific research institute.
Next, a group nearby discovered some individuals who clearly belonged to different identities in this world.
“Do you think some senior cultivator is playing a joke on us and brought us here?”
“Who knows, but there is not a bit of spiritual energy here, and we don’t know where this place is…”
“This is obviously not in the Big Dipper Star Field; it’s impossible for such a backward place to exist there.”
“Hmm? I noticed that I can fully understand what the locals are saying! Wait, it feels like I suddenly mastered a new language. How did I suddenly acquire a language?”
…
A day later.
A group sat together in a courtyard, discussing the reason for their “transport.”
“It seems we might have been pranked by a senior from the cultivation world…”
They were all residents of the cultivation world and did not believe in the concept of transportation.
In the Big Dipper Star Field, there are many powerful cultivators, and the rumors of Immortals are not uncommon.
After arriving here, everyone believed they must have been pranked by a powerful senior cultivator or even an Immortal.
“Our professions are varied: we have officials, generals, academicians from the scientific research institute, mechanical experts, weapon specialists, and top-tier technology processing engineers…”
“It must have deep meaning that we were brought here by a senior.”
“Did the senior bring us here to help us rule this world and develop its technology?”
“This world has no spiritual energy at all; it resembles Earth over ten thousand years ago when it was developing technology. Once Earth’s technology reached a certain height, spiritual energy suddenly appeared, and now the entire Big Dipper Star Field enjoys the benefits of Earth’s advancements…”
“It makes sense. With General Hou here, he can lead troops to conquer land.
Governor He has governance experience and can manage a country.
Academic Luo and others can develop science and technology.
And Engineer Chen can craft machinery by hand; together with Academic Luo, they can completely develop industry.”
“Yes, that must be it. That senior wants us to accomplish great things in this world.”
“However, we are unfamiliar here; where should we start?” someone asked.
“That’s easy. We are all cultivators; it shouldn’t be too hard to convince a group of people to follow us in rebellion.”
Just as everyone was in discussion, suddenly, a figure appeared in the sky above the courtyard.
“Hmm? A Nascent Soul cultivator?” sensing the young man’s cultivation, General Hou was immediately astonished.
“Were you sent here by the senior?” General Hou asked the young man.
In this world without spiritual energy, anyone with cultivation was considered to have been brought here by the mysterious senior.
Everyone viewed the young man before them as a companion.
“Who are you?” He Mu Shan frowned at the group before him.
Among them were people whose cultivation levels he could not see through.
This young man was none other than He Mu Shan.
The person whose cultivation he couldn’t see was, of course, General Hou.
As a general in the Big Dipper Star Field, General Hou certainly possessed a high cultivation level.
His level has reached the Integration stage, two major stages higher than He Mu Shan’s Nascent Soul stage.
Half an hour later.
“You weren’t sent here by my master?”
“Who is your master?”
“My master is…” He Mu Shan explained about his master.
“You mean that senior? He is in the Huayang secret realm? Then it’s very likely that we were brought here by your master.”
Upon hearing He Mu Shan’s explanation, everyone concluded that they must have been brought here by his master.
“You want to establish a power here and develop technology? It’s simple; just have the emperor of the Da Min Empire step down and then attack other countries. Once we take action, we can unify the entire planet within a few years.” He Mu Shan said to everyone.
“Indeed, I am at the Integration stage and can dominate all the Opposing Forces alone,” General Hou nodded.
“Since that’s the case, let’s… huh? Where is my cultivation? I feel like I can’t mobilize my power.” As General Hou spoke, his expression suddenly changed drastically.
“Me too; I also feel I can’t mobilize my cultivation.”
“Me as well…”
The others’ faces turned pale too.
“I also can’t mobilize my cultivation,” He Mu Shan’s expression also fell.
“This is bad; it’s obvious that the senior doesn’t want us to use our powers to rule this planet,” He Li couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
“Senior, what do you want us to do to let us go back?” someone shouted to the sky.
At that moment, a stream of information flowed into everyone’s minds.
“The senior said to unify the entire planet, implement the Chinese language, standardize measurements, develop technology, and not reveal the existence of cultivators.
If we can develop this world’s technology to the level of the First Industrial Revolution within fifty years, he will let us go.”
“Oh, this is indeed a difficult challenge! With our current ‘mortal’ identities, unifying the whole world will probably take many years.”
“Things depend on people. Since we have this opportunity, I also want to give it a try.”
