Chapter 108: It can only be understood, not expressed in words
After a period of cognitive sorting and calibration, Huo Wang's multiple resonances within the Five Elements' transformations finally stopped causing distorted cognitive biases. Even in the face of the fear emanating from his body, he was able to maintain calm thinking.
This was undoubtedly a huge improvement. At least when Tian Zhen used the transformation technique, Huo Wang no longer collapsed and shouted that he wanted to run over and tear his face off.
During this time, Tian Zhen not only had to address Huo Wang's cognitive issues, but also dealt with the funeral arrangements for his deceased uncle's disciple, while also juggling various issues surrounding the Spark Project. Despite his immense workload, he remained patiently by Huo Wang's side, helping him adjust to his new environment and cognition.
It’s nothing, it’s just excellent research material, Tian Zhen needs his help later.
A few days later, Huo Wang felt he had adapted well enough and expressed his desire to learn the art of cultivation to Tian Zhen. Tian Zhen readily agreed and asked him if he wanted a quick fix or if he planned to learn it slowly on his own.
At first, Huo Wang thought he could slowly figure it out, and challenged the most difficult ones with inexplicable confidence. But after he took a copy of the Wood Spirit Jue, a few days later, he came back with the Wood Spirit Jue, crying bitterly, "Brother, I want to learn something quick!"
Tian Zhen had expected this. After all, with his rigid cognition, if he had been more flexible, he wouldn't be so confused, nor would he be affected by what he saw, which would then affect his spirit and body, and then affect the chain reaction of environmental balance.
This is also why Tian Zhen is speaking without any hesitation. After all, he is not the owner of the original body. Wouldn't an ordinary person have hallucinations after eating mushrooms?
A few days later, Huo Wang, with a glowing body, descended from the sky and exclaimed, "It smells so good!"
"Brother, what realm of cultivation am I at?" Huo Wang asked Tian Zhen, who was fiddling with a spherical object called a 'World Anchor'.
"It's a fake golden elixir, after all, it only has one magical power." Tian Zhen said without even turning his head.
"Can you defeat other Jindan cultivators?" Huo Wang continued to ask.
"I don't know if I can win, but it's more than enough to escape." Tian Zhen said absentmindedly.
After standing beside Tian Zhen and watching for a while, he casually asked: "Brother, what realm are you in now?"
"It's the sixth level of Qi Refining. No, why do you suddenly have so many questions?" Tian Zhen stopped what he was doing and asked back.
"Huh?" Huo Wang asked in confusion. Whose Qi Refining Stage cultivator could travel across worlds? Whose Qi Refining Stage cultivator could even create a Golden Core? Are you bullying him because he's not well-educated?
Tian Zhen suddenly stood up and said, "Someone from your world has come to visit. I'll take you back first."
Before Huo Wang could reply, Tian Zhen slapped him on the forehead, causing him to fall to the ground and fall asleep peacefully.
In Huo Wang's world.
Huo Wang suddenly sat up from the bed in shock, startling his mother Huo who was watching over him by the bed.
"Son, you're back!" Mother Huo was very excited and hugged her son. She said with some sadness, "Son, you should stop running to that world. You still have to go to college, and you haven't found a girlfriend yet to become my wife and give me grandchildren. Besides, I'm old now, and I can't keep taking care of you like this. Do you understand?"
"Mom, I understand. I'm learning magic with my elder brother now. I've figured it out. I don't want to go to college anymore. I want to work for the government." Huo Wang hugged his mother and comforted her.
Mother Huo pushed her son away and said, "Wang, how can you eat government food if you don't study? If you don't study, how can you understand the immortal arts? If you don't study, can you find me a wife in school?"
Huo Wang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. So you just want a daughter-in-law, right? He said helplessly, "It's not a question of whether I want to eat the government meal, it's that the government meal has already arrived."
Just as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door and a clearing of the throat, followed by a serious "Ahem, open the door, check the water meter."
After serious discussions, a breakdown of his values, and salary negotiations, Huo Wang, witnessed by his mother, started eating public food.
"Is the immortal you mentioned powerful?" asked the neatly dressed man.
"It's not a question of whether he is powerful or not. Jindan knows that, right?" Huo Wang asked back with a strange gleam in his eyes.
"Yeah, yeah!" Everyone nodded.
"Wholesale! The kind that ordinary people can get used to after a while!" Huo Wang looked so excited that his voice unconsciously rose a few notches, just like the wholesaler.
"How powerful is he?" asked one of the men with a badge on his shoulder with a tentative tone.
"Now that we have figured out the principle of traveling through the world, how can this not be a great problem?" Huo Wang's tone became serious.
"What do you mean? I advise you not to do anything out of line. The people there have different values from ours. Maybe when they get angry they will..." Huo Wang was about to continue speaking, but was interrupted by a slap on the back of his head.
"What bad things are you saying about me behind my back?" Tian Zhen had just arrived in this world when he heard Huo Wang slandering him. He interrupted him with a slap on the wrist.
"No, big brother, I was just giving you a warning." Huo Wang said aggrievedly.
"You are from the Flower Growing Family, right? Come over and sit with me, brother over there." Tian Zhen really wanted to talk to them, but he was always being stared at with self-righteous eyes, which made him very unhappy, so he changed the subject.
Self-righteousness naturally refers to the toy in his hand.
As soon as he finished speaking, a man appeared on the floor of Huo's house, lying on the ground, wearing a ghillie suit and holding something like an empty object in his hand.
After noticing the change in his vision, the man quickly scanned the surroundings, then calmly stood up and said, "Report to the commander, the target has been lost!"
As he spoke, he couldn't help but glance at Tian Zhen.
"Okay, you can go down now." Some people in the room said awkwardly.
"I'm not here to interfere with your world. I'm just here to learn. Of course, if you want to know more about the way of cultivating immortals, that's fine." Tian Zhen smiled and spoke upon seeing this.
"We welcome you, the visitor from another world." The neatly dressed man smiled and extended his hand.
Tian Zhen, on the other hand, saluted and said, "For those who practice cultivation, contact is equivalent to being able to see someone naked. A salutation will suffice."
The neatly dressed man smiled awkwardly, withdrew his hand and saluted.
The atmosphere then became much more harmonious. Tian Zhen obtained some scientific and technological information, and he gave them a Ghost Ball universal storage device. He also explained the immortal cultivation method they wanted: "Different paths lead to the same destination. Even in different worlds, the basic principles of the world will not change. In short, there is nothing strange. All changes exist everywhere in life, but you don't pay attention to them. If you pay attention, you will only deify them. This thing can only be understood, not explained. It can only be used as a reference, not the only one."
