Chapter 268: Fled offline and new recruits
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
All the people were elated. While they watched the TV Series, they couldn’t get the main character’s treasures, but they could learn from his adventures and obtain his techniques!
They had learned the Tai Chi Mystic Pure Dao Technique, and now they had the opportunity to obtain the Heavenly Book!
However, to their regret, the first chapter of Heavenly Book was extremely profound and mysterious since it was the most important chapter of the Heavenly Book!
Special talent and lots of time were needed to understand it!
“This is so deep!” Nalan Hongwu lamented in frustration, feeling dizzy in front of the words which explained the ultimate truth of the world. “We still have many questions about the cultivation methods and spiritual spells in this world. It’s difficult for us to understand the words on the stone tablet…”
People like Xue Daolv, Ye Songtao, and Lan Mo sat down cross-legged and began to study the words in concentration and tried to understand in their own ways.
“I think the words aren’t describing high-level techniques or cultivation methods.” Nalan Mingxue studied each word on the stone tablet. “They explain the special rules and truth.”
“This girl got it right.” Lan Mo nodded and said, “In short, they are the ultimate truths about the world!”
Hearing Lan Mo’s words, everyone looked surprised. “Why would they show this stuff to us?”
They were stunned!
“Are you guys finished?” Fang Qi said, “The touring group is about to leave!”
“Give me another half hour!” Nalan Hongwu said.
“Half an hour is not enough!” Lan Mo said, “One hour! At least one hour!”
“One hour is not enough!” Su Tianji said.
“Let’s go now!” Fang Qi looked down on them. “We’re watching an episode! Who would pause an episode for one hour?”
He clicked [Start] immediately.
“Don’t!”
“Sir! That’s not kind! Everyone wants to read the Heavenly Book!” Ye Songtao said, “Give me one moment!”
“I will need a moment too!” Nalan Hongwu yelled immediately, “Pause! It will pa.s.s if you don’t pause it!”
“Right! We can watch the episode later!” Lan Mo said, “But we must study the Heavenly Book carefully!”
“Take your time. I’ll go and read the second chapter of the Heavenly Book,” Fang Qi said casually.
“There’s a second chapter?” Like a bomb, Fang Qi’s words attracted everyone’s attention.
“Did that senior give you some tips and important spoilers?” Lan Yan asked suspiciously, “How do you know that there’s a second chapter?”
Fang Qi pointed at the first line on the stone tablet, asking, “Do you know these three words?”
“The First Chapter?”
Fang Qi spread his hands and shrugged. “See? Since the first chapter is here, there must be a second chapter, and there might be a third or a fourth chapter! Do you want to read them?”
“Of course!” All of them looked interested. “Go on and let me see what the second chapter of the Heavenly Book looks like!”
“Oh! Can Zhang Xiaofan and Bi Yao escape from this cave?!” After all, the return route is now blocked!
Everyone began to watch the episode in concentration.
“Come and look at this!” After Bi Yao had walked out of the stone room, the audience read a small line of words under the white bones.
[The bell weeps, and all flowers wither; lovers turn haggard with white hair. Love is bitter and torturous, and the sentimental will always be hurt by the heartless.]
…
The audience watched the story of Lady Golden Bell (Jin Ling), Xiaofan and Bi Yao’ starvation without food or water, and their search for the way out.
“Zhang Xiaofan and Bi Yao are so pitiable…” Holding a middle-sized stuffed Pikachu which she had bought with one day’s income of growing vegetables, Dong Qingli felt like crying while she watched this episode. “They had just read the Heavenly Book, and now they might die here?”
“Nonsense!” A pa.s.sing Cloud Ocean Faction elder said, “I think they will find a way out!”
In the moment of desperation, the two people found that there was something wrong with the word ‘hurt’ in the line of ‘the sentimental will always be hurt by the heartless.’
The dent in the word fit perfectly with the bell that they had found!
“They found it!” The girls were excited.
The others were also elated.
However, when they walked, they didn’t find an exit, but some words looking like those that they had seen in the Heavenly Book in the previous stone room!
“Is it the second chapter of Heavenly Book?” Excited, everyone read the words out loud subconsciously.
[Gloomy souls in the h.e.l.l and demons and G.o.ds in the heaven, I’ll sacrifice my body to you and fall into the h.e.l.l forever for my love without regret.]
“Turning a woman’s essence blood into a ferocious curse?” They read the words of the curse pa.s.sage, and they felt terrified.
If this curse was used, the woman would stay in h.e.l.l forever. It was so evil!
“Love Curse?” Hearing Bi Yao’s explanation, all the viewers were surprised. “This curse is so evil; what does it to do with love?”
“Will anyone use it?” All of them looked doubtful.
At this moment, the area dimmed.
“It ended! Ahh!”
“The two episodes already?! Will Zhang Xiaofan and Bi Yao come out in the end?”
All of the viewers were frustrated.
“Sir! Where’s the second chapter of the Heavenly Book?!”
“It might be in the next episode.”
The others yelled, “Don’t run if you dare!”
“I’ll forgive you if you let me beat you!”
“Can’t you release 100 episodes altogether?!”
“Can’t you put the chapters of the Heavenly Book in one episode?!”
“Em? No! How come some of my vegetables went missing again?!”
“Where’s Mr. Fang?”
All of them froze. “He’s offline!”
At this moment, Mr. Fang had gotten offline without hesitation. Anyway, no one could come through the internet cable to beat him! Getting offline ended all the trouble for him!
In Half City, with the popularity of Fang Qi’s shop and the Legend of Mir 2, no one dared to mess with him.
Besides, the Heaven-Defying Online Games Guild had destroyed Qin Honglin and thus became the biggest force of the 36th block.
Occasionally, some cultivators asked to join the guild. Although Fang Qi hadn’t established his guide in the game yet, the guild in the real world now had about 30 members.
Since the guild didn’t have a lot of members, sometimes Fang Qi would ask Ruan Ning and other girls or even Zou Mo to manage the guild, which made him look like the leader of the big guilds in his previous world. In short, he didn’t have to do any work and almost delegated all of his duties.
Today, Fang Qi was a bit surprised while he looked at the people who wanted to join the guild.
“Guild President, what do you think?” Ruan Ning whispered to him smugly, “I personally recruited three grand cultivators!”
Fang Qi looked at the embarra.s.sed Mo Tianxing, a short and chubby old man who was rubbing his hand bashfully, and an old Daoist in dark Daoist robe.
“Well! Little… Guild President Fang,” the short and chubby old man said while rubbing his hands, “Do you still need people in your guild?”
Beside him, Mo Tianxing and the old Daoist looked embarra.s.sed for him and didn’t want to be around him.
“Can you take us with you to get good items?”
“Can you give us some of the items that you replaced?”
“Can you tell us some good places to level up? We’ve been hacked at while we tried to level up…”
Guild President Fang’s face twitched at the series of questions and thought,Your last question is what you really want the answer to, right?
