Limitless - Chapter 120: The Green Lion Lord

After a brief delay, Chu Yu arrived at Chu Tianyu’s residence.

He found Second Elder Chu Tiannan, Third Elder Chu Tianhong, Fourth Elder Chu Tianhuang, Fifth Elder Chu Tianxi, Sixth Elder Chu Tiandong and his own father, Chu Tianbei waiting for him.

There were also a few other seniors gathered in the hall.

All of them were gathered in Chu Tianyu’s living room.

Chu Yu knew that something must have happened, else, the seven leaders of the Chu Clan will never appear here at the same time.

Even when the Three Leaves Sect launched an attack, there wasn’t such a huge turnout.

"Xiao Yu is here." Chu Tianhuang nodded at Chu Yu gently and greeted him.

Chu Yu bowed respectfully to Chu Tianhuang, "Fourth Elder, it has been quite some time."

Chu Tianhuang was slightly emotional, "I was out running errands. I only found out recently that you’ve regained your abilities and are just like before, the talent of the Chu Clan!"

Chu Yu smiled humbly, "Fourth Elder exaggerates."

Chu Tianyu cleared his throat and the entire hall went silent.

"Okay, now that everyone is here, let us begin." Chu Tianyu looked at the crowd solemnly.

Then he dived straight into the issue, "A few days ago, a powerful life form by the name of Green Lion Lord appeared in the Northern Territories..."

Chu Yu was stunned, he thought to himself, Isn’t this what Lord Thief and Old Yellow just told me?

"Initially, no one was paying much attention. Since the recovery of the Earth, humans and demons have kept their distance. Most of the conflicts were the work of individuals. However, this time, the Green Lion Lord has set up a city in the ancient land of BoHai and called himself the Lord of the Northern Territories."

Chu Tianyu looked at the crowd, "This initially had nothing to do with us. He is just a powerful demon, not at the level of demon king. Even if the Chu Clan cannot handle it, others should be able to. However, what we did not expect is that the Chu Clan is his first target."

"What?" Chu Yu frowned, a wave of anger flashing across his eyes.

He was furious. Forget the fact that the Chu Clan was the target of the Three Leaves Sect, now, even the demons want a share?

Did they think that the Chu Clan was a pushover? Did everyone want a piece of them?

"Just yesterday, an expedition team that we sent to pick medicine were captured, all eight of them."

Chu Tianyu stopped and looked at the others, "You have just returned, so you may not know this, but the eight of them have been killed."

"What?"

"How did this happen?"

"Even if it wants to be a lord, we have no feud with it, why would it do such a thing?"

Chu Tianhuang, Chu Tianxi, and those who just returned raged immediately.

Chu Tianyu was solemn, his eyes flashing with pain, "Today, it sent back the heads of the eight men..."

"F*ck him!"

Chu Tianhuang was furious. He slammed the table, "How can we tolerate this? Kill it!"

Chu Tianxi also said coldly, "We have no feud with it, yet it is so merciless. Don’t we have poison pills? Kill it."

"We cannot tolerate this." Chu Tiandong said in fury.

At this point, Chu Tianyu placed his gaze squarely on Chu Yu, "What do you think?"

The others stiffened, no one expected Chu Tianyu to place a young one like Chu Yu in such high regard.

It would seem that the rumors on social media about Chu Yu were true. Furthermore, it would seem that there were many things that eluded them.

Chu Yu said, "Just now, I had two friends who came over and told me about this. However, I did not expect that the Green Lion Lord would set its sights on us."

Chu Yu’s eyes glowed with fury, he initially had no intention of antagonizing something like the Green Lion Lord.

However, even without doing anything, it had presented itself.

"Did it have anything to say when it returned the heads of our men?"

Such a threatening action must have been accompanied by a message.

Chu Tianyu said, "It had someone tell us to surrender within three days. We are to leave this place and head for its territory at BoHai. Else, it will make our blood flow like a river. It also said... it’s not afraid of our poison, it has a way to kill us anyways."

"F*ck him!"

Chu Yu said coldly, then added, "A beast acting like a human. What a b*stard, learning the three day deadline..."

Chu Yu was quite astonished, the Three Leaves Sect had also set its eyes on this place.

Now, a Green Lion Lord also wants the Chu Clan to move... could it be that it too has set its sights on this land?

Why?

As he thought about it, Chu Yu looked at all the elders in the room. He stood up and clasped his fist, "I would like to go to BoHai to take a look."

Chu Tianbei shuddered slightly at the thought and he looked at Chu Yu, visibly conflicted.

As a father, he did not want his son to take such a risk.

However, as a member of the clan, this would be the right move for the clan.

As such, he could not possibly refuse Chu Yu’s request.

What he did not expect was that Chu Tianyu shook his head and looked at Chu Yu, frowning. "We can all understand your emotions, but right now, you are the only hope of the Chu Clan... including the Chu Clan pocket dimension! The Chu Clan’s future is in your hands!"

This was the highest compliment. Chu Tianhuang, Chu Tianxi, Chu Tiandong and those who just returned were all shocked.

Their impression of Chu Yu had just risen, but they did not expect that Chu Yu was even more stellar than they imagined!

As members of the clan, they were acutely aware of the righteousness and seriousness of the two leaders.

They would never say something that they were not certain about.

Chu Tiannan said to the side, "We cannot possibly risk your life this way. Let someone else take on the dangerous work. We called you here because we are afraid that the weasel and the sparrow might try to trick you to go over."

This statement was rather straightforward, and it revealed the attitudes of the elders.

They did not believe Old Yellow and Lord Thief.

Chu Yu wanted to speak but Chu Tiannan waved him off, "There is a reason why we do not trust them."

Chu Tianyu nodded and said, "They are demons after all!"

This statement caused the entire crowd to go silent.

They couldn’t say that the leaders were overly suspicious. The divide between humans and demons was not formed within a day.

These were ideas passed down from generation to generation.

Even though there weren’t a lack of life forms who had betrayed the demons, they were an insignificant few in the grand scheme of things.

Even though Lord Thief and Old Yellow were on good terms with Chu Yu, they were still demons.

Chu Tianyu and Chu Tiannan’s worries were not completely unfounded.

However, Chu Yu was still willing to trust them.

As he thought to himself, Chu Yu smiled, "First Elder, Second Elder, seniors, please let me go for a walk. Rest assured, I have the ability to protect myself. If I really cannot, I will escape. Our Chu Clan brothers cannot die for nothing. I would also like to see where this Green Lion King gets his courage from."

After he finished, the entire meeting room went silent.

All eyes fell on the two leaders.

After a long time, Chu Tianyu laughed bitterly, "It is said that the older you get, the more timid you get. The Chu Clan’s position today was not gained by being timid. However, Chu Yu, you are really too important to the Chu Clan..."

Chu Tiannan nodded, "Just with the poison pills, we can be in a position not to be defeated! Not only can it be used defensively, if needed... we can use it to attack. I think, at the critical moment, we can let this Green Lion Lord understand that the King of the North is not an easily gotten position.

It was clear that the two leaders did not want Chu Yu to be in danger.

Just like what Chu Tianyu said, they were not scared of the lion, but they were scared that something untoward may happen to Chu Yu.

However, under Chu Yu’s insistence, he still set off for the Dragon City with Lord Thief and Old Yellow.

On the way there, Lord Thief asked, "Your family is okay with you coming with us?"

Old Yellow replied, "Definitely not, but I am sure that boss knows what he’s doing."

Chu Yu had already morphed into an ordinary middle aged man. His body did not leak any aura, but his every step covered massive distance.

In order to achieve its aims, the Green Lion Lord had chosen to attack the Chu Clan. This necessitated retaliation from the Chu Clan.

Surrender to a beast?

No one would agree to that!

Even if it was a demon lord, the Chu Clan would never agree to it.

They would not even accept playing dead and not reacting to it.

It would be too passive if they just waited for the Green Lion Lord’s sect to attack.

Since the deadline was not reached, it would be wise to go scout it out and find out more about their opponent.

When facing a Supreme Realm cultivator, Chu Yu was not so wildly arrogant to think that he could deal with it himself.

But it was necessary to understand the situation.

Old Yellow said, "Even though humans and demons have our differences, Lord Thief and I are only what we are today thanks to your help. We will harm others, but we will never harm you. This time, the two of us snuck out, the Green Lion Lord is out for a couple of days to check out the Jingpo Lake."

"Mm, even though you can be quite a pain sometimes, I am not a bird who forgets his benefactor!"

However, for some reason, Lord Thief’s tone was capable of changing even the nicest sounding of sentences.

Chu Yu looked at the beasts and smiled. Even if he didn’t say it, the two of them could guess.

Even though they may be jerks, but deep down, they are loyal life forms.

Chu Yu did not believe that they would betray him. Furthermore, he had more than a couple of ways to escape!

As he began to understand more and more about the Crane Saint Pill Scripture, he was able to refine more and more types of pills.

The group of beasts brought Chu Yu southwards towards the BoHai region.

This was the fort of the North, Dan Jiang city.

This was about 10 kilometers from the BoHai ancient city.

To Chu Yu, it was just a blink of an eye away.

When they arrived here, Chu Yu realized that these small cities were also filled with cultivators.

Even though they were virtually all Elementary Acupoint Charging Realm martial artists, they were in abundance.

He could not help but feel that this world had become a cultivation world.

When Chu Yu just arrived at Dan Jiang city and found a hotel to stay in, there was someone looking for him.

Limitless - Chapter 119: Feathered Small Lord and Furry Small Lord

New Years Day, 2057.

Lord Thief and Old Yellow had finally come to the Northern Chu Clan. They received a hearty welcome from the younger generation of the Chu Clan.

Ever since the time Chu Yu had shown his prowess and killed Chai Yue at the Heaven Lake, he had kept a low profile, not revealing himself in public.

However, this did not mitigate the explosion of his reputation in the Chu Clan.

In an instant, he became the top youth in the clan!

In the two times he had unleashed his powers, he had shown a terrifying battle prowess. Any clan would respect such a talent.

Even when the elders saw Chu Yu, they were extremely polite and caring.

When Lord Thief and Old Yellow came over, they immediately could sense Chu Yu’s standing in the Chu Clan.

When Chu Yu came out of isolation to meet the two of them, the two beasts were still boasting.

"That is... I, the bird lord, was quite powerful then too!"

"The key is Xiao Yu... has good character! Yup, he has fantastic character!"

"He was so good that I want to thank his ancestors... ahem, for giving him such great upbringing... mm, these are my heartfelt words, if you don’t believe me, look at my expression? This sincere expression of mine!

A group of Chu Clan youths surrounding them were speechless. They thought to themselves, You’re just a sparrow, what kind of expression do you have?

Sincere your *ss!

In comparison to the rather unruly and childish Lord Thief, Old Yellow seemed much more measures.

It stood up on its hind legs, blinking its green eyes. It even found itself a pair of spectacles.

It looked like it was very learned, and gave of the vibes of a teacher.

"I like learning, mm, learning allows one to improve! Yes, Chu Yu’s knowledge is vast, I will often study and discuss the origins of legends and ancient history with him. What? Chu Yu doesn’t really know about these? That’s true that’s true, I know, but I do know about these and I can teach him, he is very humble."

Afterwhich, the pair of beasts saw Chu Yu.

Lord Thief sat atop Old Yellow’s shoulder, completely stunned as it looked at the long haired youth in front of it.

"Is this dude really Chu Yu?"

Chu Yu rolled his eyes, "Is your skin itchy?"

"

"Go look in the mirror! You’re so filthy I almost couldn’t recognize you."

Lord Thief looked at Chu Yu righteously, then it giggled, "Xiao Yu, do you know what realm I am in now?"

Chu Yu opened his vertical eye and glanced at it. He said flatly, "So what if you are in the Xiantian Realm? Do you believe that I can still trash you?"

At this point, a group of Chu Clan disciples all came up to greet Chu Yu with much respect.

Powerful cultivators would be respected wherever they go, this was the law of the universe.

Chu Yu nodded and sent them on their way. Then he brought Lord Thief and Old Yellow to his backyard.

Even though he mocked Lord Thief’s entry into the Xiantian Realm as no big deal, he was quite shocked. He did know what kind of luck this damned bird had gotten at the Crane Saint’s residence. It’s advancement was extremely rapid.

The snake broth that he had refined could not have sustained it to breakthrough to such a realm.

Old Yellow also astonished Chu Yu.

Old Yellow had also entered the Xiantian Realm and became a cultivator.

From the two of them, he could clearly feel that the Earth’s recovery was gaining traction.

Almost all life forms were cultivating at a rate many times faster than before.

All the life forms were fighting to be the best, fighting to be at the top of the pyramid. No one wanted to be relegated to the sand below the pyramid.

Old Yellow and Lord Thief could really be considered demons now!

Before these, they could only be considered as a being.

All non human life forms with spiritual powers were known as spirits.

Beings had to make the transition to spirits before becoming demons.

Only those who made it to the Xiantian Realm and became cultivators, equipped with the sacred art, could be considered demons.

However, they were just small demons.

There were still, large demons, elder demons, demon lords, demon saints, demon ancestors...

For ordinary life forms, being able to become a demon was an admirable achievement.

"However, in the face of someone as extraordinary as you, my achievement is nothing. You just smashed some Xiantians a few days ago at the Heaven Lake, there’s no way I am going to compete with you!"

Lord Thief looked arrogant, then quickly changed the topic, "Do you know that a huge demon appeared at the Dragon City?"

"Huge Demon?" Chu Yu frowned and looked at Lord Thief.

Lord Thief scratched at Old Yellows shoulder, "Brother Yellow will tell you."

"Ahem..." Old Yellow cleared its throat then said with a serious expression, "It was said that about 10pm on a night 30 years ago..."

Chu Yu looked at Old Yellow in exasperation.

Old Yellow coughed again, then said, "That was before the Earth had recovered. Then, I was still rather weak, but considerably powerful for that era."

Old Yellow sighed, "All of a sudden, one day, there was a voice in my head. It told me that there was a demon king about 2000 miles to the north, and he wanted all the spiritual beings to go pay it a visit."

"It called itself the Green Lion Lord. I believe that it was initially a green lion. Back then, the aura that it radiated was enough to make all the life forms tremble and not get up."

Old Yellow looked at Chu Yu, "It is hard to believe that there were life forms of such cultivation levels then. However, back then, it had only appeared for a moment before leaving. After 30 years, it has reappeared again..."

"And then?" Chu Yu looked at Old Yellow.

"It has once again called upon us, both Lord Thief and I have gone..."

Old Yellow looked on bitterly and said, "Back then, it would have never noticed my presence. However, in recent times, Lord Thief and my advancement have been quite rapid. Now that we are in the Xiantian Realm, the Green Lion Lord wants us to follow it. It even made us officials..."

"..." Chu Yu looked on, visibly exasperated.

"Lord Thief is Feathered Small Lord and Old Yellow is Furry Small Lord..." Lord Thief said, visibly embarrassed.

"HAHAHAHA!" Chu Yu could not help but guffaw.

The more he looked at the two of them, the more he wanted to laugh.

Feathered Small Lord... Furry Small Lord... what peerless names!

"Is your Green Lion Lord uneducated?" Chu Yu was on the verge of tears.

Old Yellow looked depressed and it said impatiently, "No one wants to be its subordinate, but now it is even more terrifying. Lord Thief and I surmise that it is probably in the Supreme Realm..."

"So what?" Chu Yu glanced at them and said, "If there are benefits for you, stay, if not, leave."

"What makes you think it’s so easy? It is extremely ambitious." Old Yellow looked at Chu Yu with seriousness, "Don’t underestimate it just because it is uncultured. It has a lot of intel, and it has already set its sights on you."

"Hmm?" Chu Yu frowned.

"This is also the reason why Old Yellow and I have come to find you."

Lord Thief looked at Chu Yu, "The Green Lion Lord is ambitious. Not only does it want to be the King of animals, its true intent is to be the King of the Northern Territories!"

Chu Yu squinted his eyes and looked at Lord Thief.

Then, Lord Thief added, "It said that the Earth of the past was extremely blessed. Every inch of it was covered with resources. The Northern Territories were the choice land of many powerful cultivators, thus, its resources are endless."

Old Yellow looked at Chu Yu, "As such, it wants to take over the Northern Territories and make it its own backyard."

This ambition was really not small. Where did a Supreme Realm demon get its confidence from to want to take the entire Northern Territories for itself?

Even the heavily injured Three Leaves Sect should have enough power to defeat it many times over, no?

Just the thought of killing demons should have been sufficient to scare the Green Lion Lord away.

Chu Yu brought up this point of view.

Old Yellow shook its head and sighed, "Do you really think it’s that easy? The Green Lion Lord has a superior manual in its hands, and that is a treasured magical formation manual! It has already built itself a city in the ancient land of BoHai, and even set up a magical formation..."

Lord Thief said, "A few days ago, a few disciples of ancient sects who did not know any better wanted to attack the city. They took on the slogan of beating away demons. In the end, seven of them were killed by the magical formation, three of them retreated with serious injuries."

Afterwhich, there were three to four Supreme Realm cultivators who wanted to attack the place.

However, they were trapped deep in the magical formation... and they haven’t come out since.

"So strong?" Chu Yu’s eyes brightened, his thoughts unclear to the rest.

Old Yellow looked at Chu Yu and whispered, "The reason why we came was because of this, can’t you see through fakery?"

Chu Yu nodded.

Old Yellow said, "We know where the treasured manual is hidden..."

"What do you mean?" Chu Yu contemplated the implications.

"Steal away that treasured manual." Lord Thief was excited, "The best way is to lure the few Supreme Realm cultivators in, let them fight it out, and we can use that opportunity to..."

"What if they don’t fight?" Chu Yu glanced at them.

The Feathered Small Lord and Furry Small Lord probably did not get much benefits under the Green Lion King.

As a result, these shameless beasts set their eyes on its treasure.

"About this, we should consider this further..." Chu Yu shook his head. He did not want to make more enemies at this stage, he just wanted to focus on his cultivation.

Especially for cultivators of that realm. He could not match up to them.

Even if he entered the Xiantian Realm, at best, he could match up to cultivators in the King’s Realm, as for the Supreme Realm... they were too scary!

Chu Yu still vividly recalled the slap from Wu Jianghai which killed over a hundred Three Leaves Sect disciples.

At that very moment, Chu Yu’s handphone rang.

Chu Yu glanced at it and realized that the caller was Chu Tianyu. He found it strange, why didn’t he send someone to get me, choosing instead to call?

The moment he picked up, Chu Tianyu’s anxious voice came over the line, "Xiao Yu, come over quickly."

The usually calm and solemn Chu Clan leader rarely communicated this way with others.

Chu Yu frowned and put down the phone. He let Lord Thief and Old Yellow rest at his home whilst he rushed over to Chu Tianyu’s residence.

Limitless - Chapter 118: Silent Goodbye

Countless people watched from a distance, no one wanting to disturb them.

"Shishi, don’t look at me like that, it makes me scared." Chu Yu giggled, not in the least bit sad.

"See, with you like this, how can I be assured to leave?" Lin Shi rolled her eyes.

"Then don’t leave..."

Chu Yu said on impulse, then quickly smiled, "I’m kidding."

"I know." Lin Shi’s tone was gentle as she looked at Chu Yu, "If I had a choice, I wouldn’t want to leave either."

"Mm, I understand, go and find out more about our enemy, just don’t turn..." Chu Yu said, smiling.

"Definitely not!"

Even though Lin Shi knew that Chu Yu was kidding, she was still completely serious, "No matter what, I will never betray my race!"

"I know." Chu Yu glanced at her. He felt uncomfortable, almost as if Shishi was slightly different this time.

They had grown up together. The meanings of each action and gaze was clear as day to the other. Even their parents did not know them as well as they knew each other.

Chu Yu was sure that the person was still the same, and no one was controlling her soul.

"What’s up?"

Lin Shi looked at Chu Yu and smiled, "Why, do you think I’ve changed? Or are you suspecting something?"

This was the thing about knowing each other so well, there was no way to hide.

Chu Yu laughed bitterly, not denying.

He looked at Lin Shi, "I know that you’ve changed a little, for example, you’re alot more stable and cultured. Mm, you do have a more majestic air about you."

Lin Shi rolled her eyes and kicked a small rock. She whispered, "No matter what, I will chance slightly. This is unavoidable. When I enter the Mirror World, I have to conceal myself. Maybe it’s because I’ve been concealed for so long, I can’t change back so easily."

As she spoke, she looked at Chu Yu, "You don’t like it?"

"Nope..."

Chu Yu shook his head.

"Actually, I remember that you used to love the name Shimeng when you were young. You always said you were like poems and dreams. Everytime I called you Shishi, you would correct me and ask me to call you Shimeng."

Chu Yu glanced at Lin Shi, "That’s why I am a little stunned that you would accept the change in your name."

Lin Shi brushed her hair over her ear and looked at Chu Yu, her eyes bright, "About this, there are many insider details that are difficult to tell you over the phone. Actually, my master has already accepted me as her stepdaughter..."

Chu Yu frowned, but did not speak.

Lin Shi said, "My master is also one who stumbled into the Mirror World from a parallel universe. She is different from the others in the Mirror World, she is not biased against the Solar System.

Chu Yu nodded.

"Time in the Mirror World is different from us. Even though I’ve only been in isolation for a few months, three years have passed in the Mirror World!"

Lin Shi looked at Chu Yu, "Else, how could I possibly attain the King’s Realm in such a short time? How else could I change so much? So much so that you can see right through it..."

"There is such a thing?"

Chu Yu was impressed, how did it feel to be travelling between two worlds with different frames of time?

"When I first entered the Mirror World, life was tough." Lin Shi said rather flatly.

However, Chu Yu could feel that more than half of those experiences for her were bad.

For such a low level martial artist, maneuvering the area would have been tough.

Chu Yu’s heart ached, but he was helpless.

"Then I met my master, she... she didn’t despise me for being a low level martial artist. Instead, she comforted me and assured me that everyone able to enter the Mirror Dimension was extremely lucky."

Lin Shi whispered, "She told me, which saint didn’t start off as a small martial artist? She treats me extremely well. She even prepared a large amount of resources for my visit back here, even for Mirror World standards."

She raised her head to look at Chu Yu, "Even though I had begged her for it, she may not be so nice to someone else even if they begged,"

When Lin Shi said this, her tone was light and she looked very natural.

However, Chu Yu could feel that she still had something that she wasn’t saying, but he didn’t ask further.

"Sometimes, I am also conflicted and scared."

Lin Shi sighed, "I am afraid that one day, when the talents of the Mirror World cross over and attack our world, I can’t betray my race, but I also can’t... betray my master."

Chu Yu was silent and did not reply.

He really wanted to ask, "Is it really necessary for you to go back?"

But he did not say this out loud.

"Chu Yu, why do you think... that people can’t coexist in peace?"

Lin Shi looked at Chu Yu and asked a really naive question.

Lin Shi may not have realized this, but the Lin Shi of before would never have asked such a question.

It was clear that three years in the Mirror World had a big impact on her.

Even though this question was naive, Chu Yu still answered it seriously.

He knew that she wasn’t really looking for an answer, she just wanted to know what someone else thought.

"You’re hungry, on the verge of death, and there is a biscuit there that can keep you alive. However, you must eat the entire biscuit to survive."

Chu Yu looked at Lin Shi, "Tell me, if someone else appeared at that moment, would you share the biscuit with him?"

"It would depend who it was." Lin Shi looked at him with glowing eyes, "If it were you, I would leave the entire biscuit for you."

"No, not me. Let’s say, a stranger? Or rather... someone who is going to fight you for it, what would you do?" Chu Yu asked.

"Anyone who tries to rob me of my biscuit will have to go through me first. In the face of death, I don’t have much choice."

Lin Shi sighed and smiled bitterly, "I understand the concept, but I really don’t like it to be this way."

"Many things in life are this way."

Chu Yu looked at her, "However, remember that I will always be at your side."

"Mm, no matter what, I will never harm you!"

Lin Shi added, "I will also be beside you!"

Chu Yu nodded, not speaking again.

The water in the Heaven Lake was crystal clear and it radiated an icy aura. The surface was calm, almost like a mirror, reflecting their silhouettes on the water.

The two of them sauntered along the river bank for quite some distance.

They said their goodbyes.

As Chu Yu watched Lin Shi’s silhouette disappear into the distance, he felt an emptiness and pain in his heart.

He could feel that Lin Shi had a lot of things to tell him during her return.

He could also see her deep longing for him in her eyes.

This meant that her feelings for Chu Yu had never changed. In fact, the three years in the Mirror World had added many restrictions that she did not want.

Things that restricted her freedom!

Was it just because she had a master?

Chu Yu did not know, and did not ask.

If she wanted to say, she would.

The night that Lin Shi and Chu Yu parted, Lin Shi returned to the Mirror World.

The Han Xiao leadership, who wanted to pay her a visit, came up empty. They all left disappointed.

However, they did bring with them a letter that Lin Shi wrote. This was addressed to the Han Xiao Leader. It told him that she had came across an opportunity to cultivate and needed to isolate herself for a long period of time. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

In the letter, she promised the Han Xiao leader that she would never betray Han Xiao.

For the Lin Family, she left some resources and manuals.

They were her family, and she cared for many of them.

Lin Shi left the most amount of resources for Chu Yu. There were magical equipment, medicines, weapons, amongst others.

Even though they weren’t of extremely high level, they were the most superior of the Supreme Realm items.

There were also quite a number of pills, and they were all clearly sorted and marked.

Apart from this, there were a few hundred spiritual rocks.

This was an extremely rare item in today’s world.

In the ancient days, there were many spiritual rock mines. However, with the sealing of the world, these mines have been hidden.

When they were found occasionally, the strongest sects would control them.

For someone like Chu Yu, this was a rare sight.

These spiritual rocks ranged from the size of a fingernail to the size of a cow’s eyeball, their shape irregular.

According to Lin Shi, each spiritual rock contained a large amount of pure and superior spiritual energy.

Even the smallest fingernail sized spiritual rock could last a Xiantian cultivator more than 10 days.

Chu Yu tried to absorb the energy from one of the fingernail sized spiritual rocks. The spiritual energy contained within it was indeed pure and powerful.

However, it only took him a day to absorb all the energy in this spiritual rock.

He was slightly troubled, wasn’t it supposed to last a Xiantian cultivator more than 10 days?

Could it be that once the rock was in his hands, they did not become as effective?

If Lin Shi knew that the rate that Chu Yu was absorbing energy was this terrifying, she would be shocked.

She had heard her master mention that the most talented in the Mirror World advanced at an astonishing rate. The rate at which they absorb energy from spiritual rocks was also vastly different.

Whilst others take more than 10 days to absorb all the energy in a spiritual rock, they only use about a day and a half.

Lin Shi knew that Chu Yu was relatively talented, but after seeing the youthful talents of the Mirror World, she had thought that Chu Yu paled in comparison.

Never did she expect that Chu Yu’s talent was so terrifying that it was on par with the Mirror World’s top talents.

Lin Shi’s departure was quite a big blow to Chu Yu.

His heart ached constantly.

In the short span of time they spent together, Lin Shi had seemed too insincere.

Chu Yu had the feeling that the next time they met, it would be unclear if they were friends or enemies.

This wasn’t that he was jealous, instead, this was the result of over 20 years of experience interacting with her.

"Is this some form of lovelorn?"

Chu Yu smiled bitterly.

The two of them didn’t bring this up and acted normally, but it was almost as if that confession... had never happened.

Damn it!

Wasn’t this lovelorn?

How big a deal was it?

After all, this is lovelorn, at most it’s a long distance relationship.

But... the distance between two universes is really rather large.

Cultivate!

Cultivate!

Cultivate!

In the days following, Chu Yu put all his attention into cultivating.

Everyday, he only did two things, cultivate and learn the Crane Saint Pill Scripture!

Limitless - Chapter 117: Vigorous!

Everyone was wide eyed, their expressions confused.

Where was Chai Yue?

How did he disappear?

Why was Chu Yu still standing there?

At this point, they heard someone moaning in the mountains.

This was not science!

All those watching the stream could see it clearly. Chai Yue had rushed to Chu Yu and aimed a slap at Chu Yu’s face.

However, somehow, Chu Yu managed to retaliate and send him flying!

His body was like a broken kite and plummeted to the ground.

Chai Yue’s body landed on the other side of the Heaven Lake with a bang and smashed a huge rock.

It tumbled all the way to the edge of the water before a few slightly larger rocks blocked his body.

Those watching the broadcast murmured to themselves, imagining the pain Chai Yue must be feeling.

This was too creepy!

Chai Yue landed there, unmoving.

Lin Shi glanced at Chu Yu, her eyes filled with awe, flashing with moments of joy.

After knowing that Chu Yu was Song Hong, she knew that her childhood friend had not only recovered, but had also been progressing all these years!

His powers could awe everybody and be revered by the masses!

Chu Yu walked towards the bottom.

His gait was steady, covering vast distances with each stride.

He quickly reached the side of Chai Yue and looked down at him.

Chai Yue had been slapped on the face by Chu Yu. All of his facial bones had been shattered and half of his face was caved in, unbelievably disgusting.

He lay there moaning softly.

"It is no wonder you’re a Xiantian cultivator. Your body is strong enough not to die from that fall."

Chu Yu was serious, and it almost seemed like he was praising Chai Yue.

Those watching the broadcast were suddenly enlightened!

"I now understand why Chu Yu didn’t stop Goddess Lin from coming to fight. Chu Yu is actually this strong?"

"Didn’t they say that he was ruined for many years and he recently recovered?"

"I think, this is the work of Song Hong. The last time when the Three Leaves Sect attacked the Chu Clan, Chu Yu had also revealed his battle prowess."

"Exactly, even though we only sawa glimpse of his ability, it is enough to awe us. This is probably the work of Hero Song. What a pity that Hero Song died at such a young age, oh boy do I miss him."

"How can Chu Yu be this powerful? Isn’t Chai Yue... in the Xiantian realm? Could it be that a Xiantian cultivator cannot even defeat a martial artist like Chu Yu?"

After the crowd recovered. They found it difficult to believe and accept the news that had just hit them - Chu Yu was that powerful.

"I want to kill you..." Chai Yue could not even think straight as a result of his injuries.

He opened his remaining eye and looked at Chu Yu with hatred.

It was too painful!

He was supremely confident that Chu Yu was merely a piece of scum that he could kill with a single blow.

He did not think that Lin Shimeng would be vastly different from the others on the Heaven’s Pride Board. He even thought that she was worse than the best on that list.

But the truth had hit him hard on the head!

This attack from Chu Yu was vicious.

Lin Shimeng didn’t even get to move before Chai Yue had half his life beaten out of him by Chu Yu, a person who he didn’t even consider a worthy opponent!

The disbelief and hatred towards Chu Yu built up in his heart, gnawing away at him.

It caused him to feel so much pain he didn’t want to live!

This feeling was horrendous.

However, slowly, a wave of icyness rose in his heart. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

He had realized that Chu Yu looked at him like he was looking at a dead man!

"Do you know why I didn’t hit you into the Heaven Lake?" Chu Yu asked Chai Yue mockingly. He replied flatly, "Too dirty! You will pollute the clean water of the Heaven Lake."

"You..." Chai Yue spat out a mouthful of blood in anger and he felt weak.

"You can kill a cultivator but you cannot humiliate one..." Chai Yue used a foreign accent as he glared at Chu Yu with one eye.

"Even you... can be considered a cultivator?" Chu Yu looked at him, raised his leg and stamped down on Chai Yue’s thigh.

Kacha!

Chai Yue screamed in pain.

His body shivered manically, his leg completely bent out of shape.

Chai Yue began howling manically.

Hiss!

Chu Yu took a deep breath, then stamped on Chai Yue’s body with both feet, bellowing, "Why is your leg so tough? How frustrating!"

Chai Yue wanted to die, tears flowing down his face!

If it’s too tough then don’t stamp on it!

At this point, the other six people couldn’t take it any longer. They stood out, bellowed, and launched attacks at Chu Yu.

Any one of them were easily in the Xiantian Realm!

After 30 years of silence, these talents of the ancient sects had finally bared their fangs.

"Your opponent is me!"

On the banks of the Heaven Lake, Lin Shi went forward to meet her six enemies like a goddess coming down to Earth!

She began an intense battle with the six men!

A unbelievably majestic wave of power exploded from Lin Shi’s body in an instant.

It was like an invisible ray of light!

Kaboom!

A heaven shaking echo resonated!

Many people covered their ears, looking on in aghast as they saw the six figures fly back the way they came from.

Some of them began to spit out mouthfuls of blood in mid air.

Bang bang bang bang bang bang!

All six of them fell from the sky.

They spat out mouthfuls of blood and struggled to get up.

One hit!

All six of the Xiantian cultivators suffered serious injuries.

Tens of thousands of people on the Baekdu mountains went silent!

Those watching the live broadcast played back the video in slow motion and were all stunned!

When did Goddess Lin... become so scary?

Is she really still our Goddess Lin?

They were astonished by her abilities, and suddenly felt that they did not recognize her anymore...

Wasn’t she in the Acupoint Charging Realm just a few months ago?

Could it be that this world really has pills that allow one to advance at unbelievable rates?

Even Lin Shi’s sect mates, the Han Xiao disciples, were shocked at what they were seeing.

"When did she become so strong?" Wang Nan stared at her, completely stunned.

Those were a bunch of Xiantians!

Not six Acupoint Charging martial artists!

Sun Wei shook his head and murmured, "Could it be that... she really came across unbelievable luck at the Ruins of the Pile of Three Stars?"

"Now that I think about it, that is the only plausible explanation." Wang Nan sighed.

Sun Wei surveyed his surroundings and used the Voice Transmission Technique carefully, "After this time, I fear that the sect will reconsider her marriage with Qi Heng."

"What is there to consider?"

Wang Nan laughed coldly, "Relax, the sect will never give up a cultivator who can kill a Xiantian... no, a talented female cultivator who can kill multiple Xiantians to someone as ruined as Qi Heng.

Sun Wei frowned, then nodded, "That’s true."

"Furthermore..." Wang Nan smiled, "The sect will definitely give Lin Shi a position at the first possible opportunity, I’m guessing... at least an elder."

Sun Wei smiled bitterly, "Then when we meet, we’ll have to call her Elder Lin."

Wang Nan glanced at him, "The luckiest thing that can happen to us will be if Elder Lin doesn’t bear a grudge.

Sun Wei fell silent when he thought about the incidents at the Ruins of the Pile of Three Stars.

He finally understood the unpredictability of life. Who would have thought that Junior Lin would achieve so much?

When the six men leapt into the air, Chai Yue’s eyes glowed in anticipation and he looked at Chu Yu in anger. He growled, "You two b*stards are dead meat..."

Before he could finish, those six men were sent flying by Lin Shi.

From their angle, the six men disappeared from their sights in the blink of an eye.

Chu Yu smiled and looked at Chai Yue, "Let me send yo on your way!"

"No..." Before Chai Yue could finish, Chu Yu stamped on his chest.

This stamp was too terrifying, and it made a huge cavity in Chai Yue’s chest.

Chai Yue spat out a mouthful of blood. His eyes glared at Chu Yu. Up till the moment of death, he could not believe that a youthful talent like him would die at the hands of a martial artist.

What a wronged death!

He could not rest in peace!

The entire broadcast channel exploded in chatter!

"Damn! From now on, I am Chu Yu’s loyal fan. Whoever dares to slander him will taste my wrath!"

"That was so ferocious! He did not show any mercy! Good kill! Many of the martial artists on the Heaven’s Pride Board were killed by him."

"Evil doers will get their retribution!"

"Isn’t Chu Yu afraid of their revenge? What if they go after his family..."

"But, aren’t they afraid that Chu Yu will take revenge too? Chu Yu isn’t the only one with family."

"Exactly, Chu Yu is the one responsible, if they want to, they should just find trouble with him! But i believe in Chu Yu, he will slaughter them!"

"A true warrior, unafraid of any challenge!"

"How brave!"

The entire broadcast channel exploded with compliments about Chu Yu and Lin Shimeng.

The so called Seven Heroes had been completely smashed in the blink of an eye!

One dead and six seriously injured!

However, this was merely their just desserts for what they did in China.

Lin Shi used the Voice Transmission Technique to tell Chu Yu, "You shouldn’t have killed him. If anyone should kill him, it should have been me!"

Chu Yu stood at the bottom of the hill and looked at Lin Shimeng at the peak. He shook his head.

How could he let his girlfriend take on such a huge responsibility?

He wasn’t even willing to see Lin Shi leave after this!

Lin Shi understood Chu Yu’s intention. After she finished speaking, she shook her head in exasperation.

She knew that Chu Yu was protecting her on one hand, and training himself on the other!

If one did not dare to face stronger opponents, challenge others and fight, then one is useless, even if one cultivated to extremely high realms.

There would be no future!

No one had expected the battle to end so quickly.

Some of the people on the mountain did not even manage to catch a glimpse of the action before the battle ended.

They sighed to themselves, If I knew it was going to be like this, I would have stayed home to watch the broadcast...

Even though the battle had ended, the crowd was unwilling to disperse.

Together with the previous broadcast, these two live streams had given countless people a deeper understanding into the cultivation world.

They now understood the cruelties of this world.

Many of those who were determined to cultivate before now silently started to give up.

The world now was vastly different from before.

Under normal circumstances, it wouldn’t be a problem to live to a hundred years old. Why bother putting oneself through such a tedious and dangerous process?

Lin Shi and Chu Yu strolled along the banks of the Heaven Lake.

Limitless - Chapter 116: The Banks of the Heaven Lake

Many people had seen her picture on social media before; she was incredibly beautiful.

However, upon seeing her in person, they realized that she was even prettier in person!

There were various levels of beauty. In the ancient days, the most beautiful ladies were said to cause the flowers to be ashamed to bloom in their presence, and cause fish to plunge underwater to hide their unworthiness. However, people believed that such girls did not exist on this earth.

However, upon seeing Lin Shimeng, they came to understand that such girls did indeed roam the Earth.

She was too beautiful!

She was indescribably beautiful.

Having seen her in person, and thinking of the situation she was about to face, many couldn’t help but give her advice.

"Goddess Lin, do not fight with them, just quietly be the incredible beauty that you are?"

"Please don’t be brash, those people are vicious, and they don’t associate themselves with the Chinese anymore!"

"Exactly, not to mention the four bananas, the other three are no angels either. They think that they are from a superior bloodline and they don’t even bother about us."

Lin Shimeng smiled, but did not speak.

From afar, she saw Chu Yu with the Chu Clan.

In that moment, Lin Shimeng’s smile became wider.

She smiled extremely brightly.

Then, she raised her arm, revealing her snow white skin and waved at Chu Yu!

"Aiya, my goddess is smiling at me!"

"She is waving at me!"

"She is so pretty when she smiles!"

"My heart aches, why is such a pretty goddess going to do something so irrational?"

"Where are all the disciples of China’s ancient sects? I think you are all in on this, defeating your own by joining forces with the bananas."

The crowd was unruly, many of them thinking that Lin Shimeng was waving at them.

However, many people quickly saw that Chu Yu also raised his hand and smiled at Lin Shimeng, revealing his snow white teeth.

All those dreamers instantly pained.

"F*ck me, am I hallucinating? Is that Chu Yu?"

"My heart is broken... I want to hang myself, who will kick the chair for me?"

"Damn it, he looks so ugly when he smiles! F*ck, are they trying to compete to see whose teeth are whiter?"

"My god... it really is Chu Yu, he actually dares to show himself? Isn’t he scared of being beaten to death?"

"Wasn’t it said that he is her boyfriend? He can smile so widely despite knowing that his girlfriend is going to fight it out with others, f*ck me... does he have a heart?"

Chu Yu ignored all those discussions and walked towards Lin Shi.

Lin Shi looked at Chu Yu gently. It was almost as if they were the only two people on the Earth.

Childhood friends who became lovers.

This relationship was the envy of many!

When she walked to Chu Yu, Lin Shi blinked her lively and clear eyes, a wide smile on her face.

However, there was a faint sense of sadness deep in her eyes.

Chu Yu stretched out his arms.

Lin Shi walked forward a few steps and leaned into Chu Yu’s hug.

At this moment, the unruly crowd quietened down.

All eyes were looking silently at this couple.

The ones who were envious also could not help but admit that this was a match made in heaven.

What a perfect match!

Countless people could not help but feel that way.

Even those watching the broadcast quietened down.

Many emotional girls even began tearing.

"This world is so cruel, why must such a perfect couple be forced to part like that?"

"It seems that Chu Yu really likes Lin Shimeng, why would he let her go and fight?"

"I can’t take this anymore, I don’t want to watch this any longer, I am afraid I can’t take it..."

Lin Shi leaned into Chu Yu and used the Voice Transmission Technique, "Why can’t I see your current cultivation level?"

"It’s good that you can’t see." Chu Yu smiled, "I am pretty strong now, do you believe me?"

"Believe, of course I do, my Hero Song!" Lin Shi rolled her eyes and slowly stood up, a sense of nostalgia flashing across her eyes.

"I should get going, when it is all over, I will come and find you, wait for me!" After Lin Shi finished, she turned and walked to the Heaven Lake.

The seven men had arrived long ago, but they chose not to reveal themselves.

When Lin Shi stood on the banks, Chai Yue flew over contentedly.

To be exact, he glided.

He ran down from the hill then leapt off!

His figure flew right over the crowd and landed on the banks of the Heaven Lake.

Boom!

A gigantic rock was shattered immediately by Chai Yue.

The shattered pieces of the rock flew in all directions. Those closest to the landing point were all injured.

They were bleeding!

Those people screamed, but did not dare to speak.

Chai Yue laughed, then looked at Lin Shi.

His eyes revealed his awe.

How is she so beautiful?

She is a true beauty!

The servants and wives of Chai Yue were all some of the most beautiful ladies.

However, none of them could match up to Lin Shi.

Chai Yue was not tall, about 1.7m in height and slightly plump. His skin was dark and his eyes glowed.

He was not ugly, but he was definitely not handsome.

Furthermore, his accent was off.

He was a descendant of an immigrant. He had been born overseas and grew up there.

The only reason why they could communicate with China was because their seniors and teachers all conversed in Mandarin.

However, Chai Yue felt no sense of belonging to China.

"Forget it, let’s not fight, come with me." Chai Yue looked at Lin Shi flatly, "You’re too beautiful, I do not want to harm you."

"Why is it just you? Where are the other six? Come together, I am in a rush." Lin Shi said flatly, almost like she was recounting a normal story.

She spoke softly so that not many could hear what she was saying.

However, on the internet, they could hear her statement clearly. The internet exploded into discussion.

"My god... is she crazy?"

"Goddess Lin, what has happened to you? You’re courting death aren’t you?"

"My heart is beating so fast, this is too scary..."

"Why does it feel that Goddess Lin is very confident?"

"Damn it, stop talking rubbish, how can you see her confidence?"

When Chai Yue heard this, he could not help but laugh.

His mouth twitched as he looked at Lin Shi, "Do you know? The thing that irritates me the most is bragging, especially when a woman brags. However, I am not adverse to you bragging in front of me. After all, which lady doesn’t want to impress the guy that she likes? Thus, I can understand."

"F*ck your understanding! You small black idiotic fatty."

A mocking voice came over from the side.

Those watching the broadcast were stunned!

Who was this?

So fierce?

The guy in front of him was Chai Yue!

A foreign talent in the Xiantian Realm.

It was enough that Lin Shimeng was courting death, who was this guy to be so brave?

However, they quickly found out the source of the voice.

Chu Yu!

Everyone on the scene was speechless.

Didn’t you just recover, who are you to make a fool of yourself here?

Young people are really brash, not thinking before they speak. Not only did he not advise his own girlfriend properly, he is adding fuel to the fire.

Isn’t this just courting death?

"You’re asking for death!"

Chai Yue’s expression turned icy. He attacked, in that moment, his eyes flashed with a murderous glow!

A ray of light shot towards Chu Yu!

Magical technique!

Chai Yue was evidently a vicious man, using a magical technique to attack.

To a martial artist, this kind of attack was the most lethal!

It was sharper than a blade!

Lin Shi waved her hands. An invisible wave of force hit that ray of light and scattered it. She said flatly, "I am your opponent."

Chai Yue’s eyes flashed with awe. He did not expect that his sudden attack would be interrupted by Lin Shimeng so easily.

He suddenly realized that this lady was not as weak as he imagined, and was quite different from the others on the Heaven’s Pride Board.

However, he didn’t think too much about it.

Strong... but how strong could she be? Probably an advanced stage Invigorated Meridian Realm martial artist at best.

The way she scattered his attack was with energy and not a magical technique.

As he thought about it, Chai Yue chuckled icily. He looked at Lin Shi and smiled hypocritically, "I guess that means that you’re going to carry on doing the wrong thing?"

"Are you stupid? Why do you have so much nonsense to say? If you want to fight, fight, after this I still have to bring my girlfriend home!" Chu Yu added at the side.

"I will kill you!" Chai Yue was enraged.

Especially the word girlfriend, that had agitated him to the core.

Even though this was his first time meeting Lin Shi, he had made up his mind to bring her back to become one of his wives.

Chu Yu was a fly blocking his way, and it disgusted him!

Chai Yue attacked Chu Yu, his palm aimed viciously at Chu Yu’s face.

This time, he was using the powers of a Xiantian cultivator!

He had made up his mind to kill this fly and show this woman what a true expert was.

Lin Shi wanted to stop the attack, but Chu Yu used the Voice Transmission Technique to tell her, "Don’t move!"

Chai Yue was indeed strong. He had entered the Xiantian Realm at a young age. His talent was definitely undeniable.

This time, his return to China was to be the advance party to raise publicity for his sect.

He would not have bothered with someone like Chu Yu, but since he had presented himself, and he was pretty popular on the internet, killing him would shock many people.

As he thought about it, he channeled all of his power into this attack.

He wanted to shatter Chu Yu’s brain with this slap!

Lin Shi’s eyes flashed with worry, she had already prepared!

Based on her powers now, she could still turn it around at the critical moment!

However, Chu Yu did not give her that chance!

As he watched Chai Yue’s palm approach him, Chu Yu was calm and he stood there, a smile breaking over his face.

In the eyes of many, this was the expression of shock.

"Ay..."

Countless people sighed in that moment.

Chu Yu was dead!

Pa!

A chilling, clear sound echoed out.

Many of the people watching, both live and on the internet, closed their eyes, unwilling to watch what had happened.

However, there were some who were brave enough to stare at the scene.

In the next moment, those who had saw what happened let out a cheer.

This created a buzz!

Those who had closed their eyes re opened them and were greeted by an unbelievable sight.

Chu Yu was still standing there, unharmed. Chai Yue had disappeared.

...

Limitless - Chapter 115: The Truth

Lin Shi sighed, "My master told me that the Solar System is the best place for cultivation. Before long, the various clans from the Mirror World will cross over and head for the Solar System."

"This is going to be catastrophic for us!"

"I was born in the Solar System, which means I was born in the blessed land. I want to learn and understand the Mirror World. This would ensure that we understand our enemies better when they finally make the crossing."

"You are right!" Chu Yu was uncomfortable inside.

To be honest, he did not want to be separated from Shishi like that.

"6000 years ago, our ancestors fought valiantly and many people lay down their lives for this cause."

"They had given us 6000 years of breathing space, sealing our world for that time."

"This seal was made such that the higher one’s cultivation level, the harder it would be for him to enter!"

"My master told me that the breaking point was at the True Lord Realm. Only people at this realm and below can cross over."

"However, if those incredibly powerful forces tried again, they would reinforce the seal."

"This had been working for many years."

"There are still many of our kind in the Mirror World."

"When our ancestors left the Solar System aeons ago, a portion of them chose to move to other solar systems and are currently untraceable, the other portion... set up base in the Mirror World."

"After 6000 years, those people now identify themselves as citizens of the Mirror World."

"They have been completely brainwashed. As such, when we meet them in the future, we must be cautious, don’t treat them like our allies."

"When our world was sealed, many of those powers were greatly weakened, so for now, our world is safe."

"But my master says, soon..."

"For now, there are already many talents in the Mirror World getting ready for the crossover. They are eagerly trying to recruit people."

"Many of them are even saying that they want to come here to hunt, kill the aborigines who are roam this wasteland..."

Chu Yu became more and more solemn, he was fuming!

The center of the world should be a prosperous place!

It should have been like the Tang and Song Dynasties, where people came from every corner of the universe to engage each other!

Yet now, it was a wasteland despised by others. This thought was rather depressing.

However, he knew that his anger now was merely a manifestation of his helplessness.

He swore to himself that he would get stronger, quickly!

Then, they would see who would be the prey!

Lin Shimeng said seriously, "Based on my understanding, our world does not have the most resources, but we do have the most superior resources. Futhermore, our foundation is the deepest! No where else even come close."

"However, when those talents begin to coming in, we, the so called aborigines, will be oppressed. We will find it difficult to fight them; thus, the time we have is not much."

"I have asked my master how do we let others enter the Mirror World. My master told me that even though the Mirror World is the converging point for multiple universes, it has already gone dark and become a world of its own."

"As such, even though the Mirror World was built by the powerful individuals, even they cannot interfere."

"There is no route to enter the Mirror World. Entry is purely based on luck!"

"However, once entry is gained, one will be affirmed by the Mirror World. However, the resources required to return to our original world is way too much for us to handle right now."

"My master never thought that I came from the Solar System. She thinks I am from another universe."

"For 6000 years, the cultivators from the Solar System who have gained entry into the Mirror World are few and far between. Even if they have gained entry, the would hide their identities and keep a low profile."

"This time, in order to return, I had to beg my teacher repeatedly before I got a set of resources. However, when I return, I’m afraid it’ll be difficult for me to return..."

Lin Shimeng’s voice was pained.

Chu Yu was silent. He understood Lin Shimeng’s intent, but after this goodbye, it’ll be very long before they saw each other again.

Even though those talents in the Mirror World think that they can cross over soon, that time frame for a cultivator... could be between three to five years, or even three to five centuries.

For a powerful cultivator, the concept of time was foreign to them.

In comparison with 6000 years, another thousand years would just be another stroke of the hand.

"Then, Shishi, what is your current cultivation level?" Chu Yu asked solemnly.

"Elementary King’s Realm." Lin Shimeng did not hesitate to tell Chu Yu her real cultivation level.

"..." Chu Yu had expected Lin Shimeng to have attained Xiantian, but he did not expect that she would have attained King’s Realm in such a short time frame.

This was shocking!

"The resources there are too good, my Divine Lady Scripture can be fully utilised!"

"However, my cultivation level is nothing over there, it is barely noticeable."

"All of my seniors in the institution are at least Supreme Realm cultivators. Those in the best institutions are even in the True Lord realm..."

Lin Shimeng sighed, "To be honest, our talent is not necessarily worse than them, and our pace is not slow."

"But our world has been sealed for 6000 years and the resources... are too little!"

"Oh yes, I have brought over some medicines and teachings from the Mirror World. I will hand them over to you personally when we meet at the Heaven Lake.

"Also, I plan to teach those idiots a lesson before I leave. They don’t know anything, they only know how to fight aimlessly!"

"Based on your cultivation level, you can definitely whip them..." Chu Yu smiled.

"I just want to let them know that they are really weak!"

Lin Shimeng said faintly, "After I leave, I hope you will concentrate on your cultivation. Don’t partake in those things that do not concern you. Our enemy is not within."

"I understand." Chu Yu agreed, but he felt helpless.

Now that he knew of the existence of the Mirror World, he knew part of the truth of the catastrophic robbery which took place 6000 years ago.

However, the issue remained... most people on this earth didn’t know!

They were still day dreaming!

Fighting to be in control!

Even if this was revealed, it would not do anything much... other than incite mass pandemonium.

It was just as if we had learnt of the apocalypse suddenly. Other than fear and pandemonium, what else could we do?

After switching off his messenger, Chu Yu could not find peace. Previously, he had been excited about understanding the art of pill refining. However, now, he was solemn.

He did not think that the catastrophe 6000 years ago had happened this way.

As the home of cultivation and the center of the universe, it had been robbed in such vicious fashion.

Countless powers salivated at the thought of attacking and occupying this place.

Come of their ancestors had laid down their lives in the defence of this place! They had fought valiantly to repel the invasion!

Finally, that group of ancestors had used the remnants of their energy to seal the entire Solar System.

They used their lives to protect their homeland!

Maybe back then those powerful ancestors had already known that their defences would be broken through one day.

But they had already done their best!

Perhaps, one of these days, those powerful beings would return if they still lived in the ancient monuments and continue defending this land with their lands.

However, were we as descendants going to be bystanders and not try to help?

Maybe even become prey and punching bags for the talents in the Mirror World?

No!

Definitely not!

I will never agree to that!

Chu Yu’s eyes became red with fury and he took a deep breath to try to calm himself down.

Cultivate!

Now that he had broken through all 12 of his true meridians, he still had another eight meridians to go.

Chu Yu prepared to break through the rest in the fastest time and enter the Xiantian Realm!

First, he had to breakthrough the Conception Meridian and the Governor Meridian!

In the ancient stories, it was said that breaking through these meridians will make one a martial art expert.

That was the truth.

However, the people who could really breakthrough these two meridians were rare!

Some of the most talented were born with these two meridians flowing smoothly.

As a result, they reaped much greater rewards and progressed much faster than anyone else.

There were even those who were invincible in their teens!

Even without considering the little metal ball in his forehead, Chu Yu had the saint’s superclass for foundation cultivation as well as the support of the Killing Days Heart Technique.

In the foundation stages, such conditions were most superior.

There was no reason why he would not be able to match those talents!

It was three days to the battle between Lin Shimeng and Chai Yue

Chu Yu calmed himself down and began cultivating.

November the third, 2056, the Northern Heaven Lake was filled with people!

Many people rushed over upon hearing the news that Lin Shimeng had accepted the challenge.

Previously, many were content with watching the broadcast. However, this time, they wanted to watch the battle with their own eyes.

As such, when Chu Yu arrived, the place was already packed full of people.

It was early November, and the cold north had already begun to snow.

However, due to the difference in the physiques of people, most of the people wore thin clothes but did not feel cold.

When the live broadcast begun, social media was abuzz about this uneven fight.

Almost everyone felt that Lin Shimeng was too irrational.

How could she be so brash?

If the disciples of China’s ancient sects do not dare to make a peep, why do you accept the challenge?

This was akin to using an egg to smash a rock, suicidal!

It was no exaggeration to say that even Lin Shimeng’s most loyal fans did not believe in her.

They all thought that if Chai Yue was vicious enough, Lin Shimeng was bound to die!

Lin Shimeng arrived, accompanied by the confusion, pity, and sighs of the crowd.

She wore a body hugging white dress which showed off her slender hips. Her snow white skin glimmered!

She wore a pair of crystal high heels. Her 1.8m tall body was perfect, neither too fat nor too thin, she was the embodiment of perfection.

Her presence caused the crowd to pale.

Her long flowing hair rested on her shoulders and her exquisite face broke out in a smile.

The chilly air did not seem to affect her. Without any hesitation, she began scaling the mountain.

Her presence caused a huge stir.

Limitless - Chapter 114: Mirror World

Many of them felt enraged!

Of these seven people, five of them were foreigners!

Even though they were all of Chinese blood, they did not seem to care about their fellow men.

In challenging those on the Heaven’s Pride board, they showed no mercy, killing three instantly. Eight others were seriously injured to the point of being ruined.

The remaining few were all seriously injured. The best of them still had to be bedridden for months.

This was not just a challenge and sharing of techniques, this was completely inhumane towards those on the Heaven’s Pride Board.

To make things worse, one of the seven had said that in the 33 years since the world recovered, there was no one in China who was decent!

The only one who barely made it, Song Hong, was dead.

Other than him, they were all trash!

This statement angered too many people, and even included many of the talents in China’s ancient sects.

Some of the disciples of the ancient sects rose to challenge, but they were all smashed by him.

Then, he posted again on social media, "With countless ancient sects in the whole of china, is there no one who is my match?

What is the Heaven’s Pride Board? A children’s playground?"

"There is only one person left, a lady named Lin Shimeng. I heard that she is a beauty. I don’t know where you are hiding, but if you see me, please step out. If I like you, I’ll accept you as my servant."

The most active of the group said on social media.

On the 30th of October 2056, one week after everyone on the Heaven’s Pride Board had been defeated.

Lin Shimeng came out of isolation, and accepted the challenge!

"Chai Yue isit? See you at the Heaven Lake in the Northern Territories in three days, on the third of November! Also, bring all seven of you." Lin Shimeng replied on social media.

Lin Shimeng’s challenge had stunned many people.

Hundreds of them tried to persuade Lin Shimeng against fighting.

Any one of the seven were easily Xiantian Realm cultivators.

What was Lin Shimeng’s cultivation level previously?

Advanced Acupoint Charging Stages?

Too weak!

There is no way she is a match for them!

Furthermore, she wants to fight all seven of them... that is courting death!

She must be crazy!

"Goddess Lin, please don’t fall into the trap, ignore them!"

"They are just a group of people who don’t know their roots, don’t bother about them."

"You will always be a Heaven’s Pride and a goddess in our hearts, don’t go and fight!"

Lin Shimeng did not reply to these statements.

Very quickly, there was an announcement - this battle would be broadcast worldwide.

Turn back the clock by one day, on the night of the 29th, Lin Shimeng came out of isolation.

In the shortest amount of time possible, she tried to understand what was going on.

Then, she switched on her messenger and looked at the various messages. The first one she chose to see was Chu Yu’s.

"Brother Song says that there are treasures in the nooks."

Lin Shimeng looked at the sentence, stupefied. After a while, she took a deep breath and called Chu Yu.

"Shishi, you’re finally out, how was it? What cultivation level are you now?"

"Let me tell you, in the time that you’ve been in isolation, you’ve missed so many great shows..."

"Also, there have been a few idiot bananas [1] who are challenging everyone, please don’t bother about them."

Chu Yu did not even give a chance for Lin Shimeng to get angry and he rattled on for what seemed like ages.

Lin Shimeng listened quietly, her expression changing from anxious to happy multiple times.

Chu Yu spoke for almost 10 minutes and recounted all of the incidents that had happened.

He finally stopped.

"You’re done?"

"Mm..."

"Then tell me, what treasures are there in the nooks?" Lin Shimeng’s tone was dangerous, like a small cat extending its sharp claws.

"Shishi, as for that, you have to listen to my explanation."

"Mm, I’m listening." Lin Shimeng wore a smile, but her tone was flat.

"Mm, you do know the situation then..."

"Mm, I do." Lin Shimeng replied flatly.

"You’re... not angry?" Chu Yu was cautious.

"I am not angry, you did that to protect me, why should I be angry? Wouldn’t that be very immature of me? You know that I am not willful." Lin Shimeng smiled lightly.

"Ok Shishi, I admit that I made a mistake this time, I didn’t think it through..."

"Ok la, I was just a little disappointed and thought that you should have come clean with me at the first possible opportunity. However, upon deeper thought, it really wasn’t suitable for you to tell me."

Lin Shimeng smiled, "But, aren’t you afraid I would fall for Song Hong?"

"I believe that our relationship can survive any trial!"

"Mm, no matter what, that will not change." Lin Shimeng replied seriously, then she said, "Chu Yu, do you know why I’ve been in isolation for so long?"

"I was wondering too, it shouldn’t need to take so long."

Lin Shimeng said, "I may have to leave... this place! Maybe it’ll be temporary, maybe... it’ll be for a long time."

"What do you mean?" Chu Yu was confused.

"I know some things, some... things that have to do with the apocalypse 6000 years ago." Lin Shimeng said.

Chu Yu was silent, his attention fully on her.

"The world that we live in, mm, our entire universe, has a border and an end, in theory at least!

Chu Yu was astounded, the universe was supposed to be endless.

The word universe meant limitless!

Both space and time were embodied in the word universe!

That was the meaning of universe!

Timeless and limitless!

Even according to the hypothesis of modern science, there was no way of finding the ends of the universe.

The universe extended to billions of light years away.

Lin Shimeng said, "The concept of the universe, and what we know now... is inherently different. Do you still remember what is said in the Buddhist Scriptures?"

"One needs to return to their roots?" Chu Yu asked.

"Yes."

Lin Shimeng smiled and said, "The world actually has a universe which is timeless and limitless. In order to travel within the universe, say, to a place light years away..."

"Even a saint, which can travel thousands of miles a minute will need a long time on the road."

"As such, the best way is to travel using the network of black holes."

Bending space and the black hole theory were not foreign to Chu Yu.

Even before the earth had recovered, some scientists had suggested this, but the technology at that time was insufficient for experimentation.

However, such a theory had already been proven. Even quantum mechanics were all real and proven.

The knowledge of humans were limitless. These ideas had been brought up in the ancient times and had even been used by many of the powerful cultivators.

"The universe we live in, according to some, is the center."

Lin Shimeng’s voice was clear, "To be exact, it is the central region."

"And our entire solar system is the center... of the central region!"

"This isn’t the physical meaning of center, but rather the "cultivation" center!"

"This land is special and magical. The sanctuaries here are much simpler than in other places!"

"That means that people are many times more likely to succeed here!"

"However, it is very difficult to enter this region. One require major costs and sacrifice, and success is not a given."

"In order to enter our solar system, this center, is even more difficult!"

"6000 years ago, countless powerful individuals paid a huge price and tried to cross over and break through the walls of the central region. They failed, but not completely!"

"Someone managed to breakthrough and leave a passageway."

"Else, our world would not have been robbed like that."

"The universes are not separated as what we previously thought, in fact, there are points of overlap!"

"As such, until now, the billions of light years of space that we have explored could contain countless other universes. Some of these are far away, others are right next to us."

"However, because they are in a different plane, we cannot sense their existence."

"Under normal circumstances, this overlap does not have any effect."

"However, at the point where the most number of universes intersect, this place is called the Mirror Dimension!"

"It can link multiple universes!"

"When those powerful individuals retreated, they opened up a new world in the Mirror Dimension. They built a society there, recuperating and hiding, awaiting their next opportunity."

"That world is called the Mirror World."

As Lin Shimeng spoke, Chu Yu became more and more solemn.

This was an ancient event, over 6000 years ago. The people who knew about this were rare.

"When I was in isolation training with the Divine Lady Scripture, I accidentally connected with a door to the Mirror World. As such, I was lured into it."

As Lin Shimeng spoke, she sighed softly.

Her experiences during this time was almost like a dream!

It was hard to believe, even now when she thought about it, it still seemed dreamlike.

In the Mirror World, almost all of the universal sects had Heaven’s Pride cultivators. Anyone of them could stun anyone on this earth.

"That world is much more complicated than the one we live in! There are a lot more races although more than half take on a human form."

"The leader of the Mirror World is the sect that was formed by the powerful individual who attacked the solar system back in the day. The rest are those who had joined from the various universes, as well as their descendants."

Lin Shimeng had joined a San Liu school inside the Mirror World. The techniques that she had learnt could not be found anywhere on this earth!

"Those Heaven’s Prides are too scary. I did not feel a sense of belonging there. I am not scared of you laughing at me..."

Lin Shimeng sighed, "Even the ordinary slaves in the San Liu school were much stronger than me!"

Chu Yu listened silently as Lin Shimeng recounted her extraordinary experiences. Even though he was smart, it took time for him to digest all the information.

"There, due to my physique, I went to find a master. She does not know where I come from, but she is good to me."

"I can’t even begin to guess her cultivation level, but she must be at least a Divine Lord. She is well respected in the institution. Ever since I became her disciple, my life has become a lot easier."

Lin Shimeng laughed lightly, "Oh ya, my master changed my name. She thinks that I should be called Lin Shi, without the meng, because dreams... are things for the ordinary people. I also think Lin Shi is better, what do you think?"

"Mm, I’ve always called you Shishi instead of Mengmeng, because I had foresight." Chu Yu joked as he tried to liven the mood.

He had a premonition of what was about to happen.
