Counterattack System appeared when I'm already At The Mahayana Realm
Chapter 544: Classic Gemstone GamblingThe void was as vast as the sea, boundless and infinite, with worlds in it like fish in the sea.
Worlds drifted in the void according to no discernible pattern; up, down, left, right, front, back – everything was unknown.
As such, the possibility of collisions between worlds existed.
Jiang Li, when traveling through the void, had observed on multiple occasions two worlds brushing past each other, narrowly avoiding collisions by mere tens of light years.
However, a collision had never actually occurred.
This was the first time Jiang Li was witnessing a collision between worlds.
“Is this a natural disaster or man-made catastrophe?” Jiang Li pondered. Just like the effect of mastering the Taming Beast Immortal Classic, he could control the direction of a world.
If he wished, he could casually cause worlds to collide.
Jiang Li estimated that a Golden Immortal might achieve a similar effect, forcing worlds to collide.
“If this is the doing of the Immortal Realm, then what’s the purpose? There’s nothing left of the Jingyu World anyway.”Jiang Li purchased the latest edition of dictionary, history books, and encyclopedia of the QinXin World from the system store, learning that QinXin World was also a Continent World. Its history didn’t have anything notable and its level of technology was slightly higher than described by the system.
He also bought an astronomical map drawn by QinXin World. Using the positions of the stars they had observed, Jiang Li could deduce the position of the QinXin Continent.
“It’s about two thousand million light years away,” Jiang Li determined the direction and distance before tearing through space to leap near the QinXin World. He scanned the surrounding starry sky with his Divine Sense, further confirming the location.
Jiang Li looked down at his feet; due to the spatial disruption caused by the shortcut through space, the exit point distorted, resulting in almost half of a planet being shattered.
“Hmm, still about one million and thirty thousand light years off. Seems my precision isn’t too bad, and more than half of the planet is still intact. It looks like my mastery of spatial travel has progressed.”
Jiang Li was easily contented. Previously, his spatial ruptures would cause an entire planet at the exit point to distort. Now, only less than half got shattered, which was a significant improvement.
After repairing the planet, he once again tore through space to arrive near the QinXin Continent. He smoothly rolled to his feet, spreading his arms wide and standing firmly on the continent.
“It felt as if I was diving just now…no, it was more like gymnastics. Diving, gymnastics, sports… Perhaps I should organize a sports meet in Zhouchu?”
“Maybe events like short runs around the stars, long runs across the galaxy, swimming across the four seas, weightlifting with mountains?” Jiang Li thought it seemed quite feasible.
Jiang Li’s mind wandered, thinking of random things.
While concocting ideas for the Nine Provinces Sports Meet, he took a leisurely stroll around the QinXin World.
He found the world to be quite peaceful.
Jiang Li visited an internet cafe to play a few games. Despite suffering crushing defeats, he enjoyed himself immensely. As a token of gratitude before leaving, he kindly reported the presence of underage individuals to the Market Supervision and Management Bureau.
Jiang Li visited a street stall to play a dart-throwing game, earning enough money for a day’s meals.
He then went on to the food street, using the money he had just earned to eat his way through the stalls.
When he saw someone falling into the water, he casually gestured and saved them. He didn’t leave his name, just saying that when Jiang Li does a good deed, he doesn’t leave his name, then left nonchalantly.
When he saw a child crying below a floating balloon, he gently leaped and returned the balloon to the child.
He visited a police station, claiming that he had smuggled himself from another world and wanted to apply for a temporary residence permit. Seeing that Jiang Li seemed to be a bit mentally unwell, the police kindly let him stay for lunch.
While the police were discussing whether to send Jiang Li to a mental hospital, he quietly slipped away.
Jiang Li returned to the gambling stone field, thinking about winning some money to end the rich day.
“It’s green, it’s green!” The exaggerated shouts were as loud as the sea, overturning the roof. Before Jiang Li had arrived, a lucky young man was choosing stones.
“This kid is so lucky, he can pick out jade from the waste stones. Just this piece of jade alone is worth hundreds of thousands!”
“Who can say otherwise? At first, everyone thought this kid was a novice trying his luck. Now it seems he was born to gamble on stones.”
“He has bought eight stones since he came in, all eight have jade in them. He can earn at least one and a half million today!”
The lucky young man was also very excited. His eyes were bright and he carefully selected the stones.
“He used one and a half million to buy a stone that has been lying around for three years!”
“What a fool. Young people are too impulsive. He’s getting carried away. Does he think his luck will last forever?”
“Yes, young people don’t know when to stop. Now he’s definitely going to lose everything.”
“There’s green… This is… Imperial jade of glass type!”
“What?!”
“I’ll pay fifty million!”
“Fifty million is nothing, I’ll pay seventy million!”
“One hundred million!”
Countless wealthy men were ready to spend any amount to buy this stone. In the end, the lucky young man sold the stone for one hundred and twenty million.
Jiang Li scratched his neck, feeling like he had seen this scene before in his book “A Mahayana Monk in the City”.
Wen Quan left the gambling stone field nervously. He hadn’t expected to earn so much money this time, it made his heart flutter.
“I’ve only reached the first level of Heavenly Vision, but the effect is terrifying. I can see everything inside a stone clearly.”
“Although it’s somewhat dangerous to display my talents in front of others, the risk is worth it. With so much money, I can buy medicinal materials for a medicinal bath and strive to advance to the mid phase of Qi Cultivation.”
While Wen Quan was muttering to himself, a few ruffians blocked his path.
“Hey boy, you made quite a fortune in the gambling stone field. We happen to be short of money. How about lending some?” The ruffian was twirling a knife, looking somewhat frightening.
With a slight smile, Wen Quan showed no fear of these thugs wielding weapons. He moved smoothly, dodged the blade with a sidestep, and punched the thugs in their guts. The thugs vomited a bit of bile, clutching their stomachs and writhing on the ground.
Wen Quan walked away nonchalantly.
Jiang Li followed Wen Quan, noticed a camera overhead, looked down at these thugs, and took them to the police station.
“Thanks for the meal. I’m bringing you a few guys, attempted robbery. The surveillance showed the whole process. And also, I’m not mentally ill.”
…
Jiang Li chose not to reveal himself. The secrets Wen Quan held weren’t as simple as just receiving a legacy and being able to cultivate immortality.
Wen Quan was soaking in a medicinal bath, calmly guiding the yin and yang energies through his body. Accompanied by a wave of spiritual energy, he officially stepped into the fourth level of Qi Cultivation.
“Finally made it to the mid-stage of Qi Cultivation,” Wen Quan breathed a sigh of relief.
“But my Heavenly Vision is still at the first level, with only the most basic sight piercing ability. I can’t see the flow of energy channels in the human body. It won’t reach the second level until I reach the peak stage of Qi Cultivation.”
He got out of the medicine bath, got dressed. Just as he was wondering why his sister hadn’t come back home yet, his phone rang.
“Hello, sister. What’s up? Are you filming so late?”
“Help——”
A cry for help came from the other end of the phone, and Wen Quan’s face changed drastically.
His muscles bulged like an angry lion.
