The car drove all the way from the suburbs of Beijing to the city.

Through the glass, you can see countless speeding cars and tall buildings—and the display screens on the tall buildings.Passing a certain intersection on the way, there is also a section of the subway on the ground.

Shen Xie was looking out the window casually at first, but gradually his expression became more and more focused, and he tried to hide the astonishment but couldn't completely hide it.

As the undisputed top race in the mysterious world, Ying Long's perception is impeccable.He could feel the "refining products" flying outside, and the things that could be traced back like "retrospective mirrors", without any trace of spiritual power.

——However, they look like they are not inferior to the products of the cultivation world.Moreover, all mortals can use it, as if there is no talent limit, and it is not so rare.

What are those?

When the high-speed train speeding past on the nearby elevated road, and the sharp sound of piercing the air was transmitted to the car, he finally couldn't help but speak:

"The mortals of today... How did their lives become—how did they become—"

He tried to describe it, but couldn't find the right words.

He turned his head to look at the young man beside him with a questioning expression on his face.

Xu Yunji saw pure bewilderment and shock in Mr. Ying Long's dark eyes.The expression of this beast boss who has lived for tens of thousands of years is as pure as that of a child at this moment.

Xu Yunji was stunned for a moment, and then quickly put away this disrespectful thought - this is the well-deserved top overlord in the cultivation food chain.

The young man spoke patiently: "This is another system completely different from cultivation. It is science. Although mortals have a short life, they can pass on knowledge from generation to generation, and then find another way to change the world."

He reached out and clicked on the high-speed rail that was about to disappear out of sight outside the window:

"This is a high-speed rail, which can allow more than 1000 people to move forward at the speed of a practitioner of the Pure Realm. Ordinary people do not need to have the qualifications for cultivation, and do not need to rely on their own experience, but rely on the knowledge passed on from generation to generation. Everyone is like As for the bee colony, bees master their own part of knowledge and skills. And the world they form together can do things comparable to or even beyond the abilities of cultivators."

Shen Xie stared at the window glass.

A finger was poked on the transparent barrier, and the fingertips showed a little red because of the pressure on the glass.

'... quite white. '

He looked at the finger, a little distracted.

He didn't want to admit it, but what he saw was indeed far beyond his imagination.

He doesn't like deep sleep very much, but he has had it a few times.It is also common to sleep for dozens of years and 100 years.Sleeping this time was fighting with Chaos.Chaos was beaten by him and had to be reincarnated, but he didn't get well, he was seriously injured, and could only fall into a deep sleep.

In fact, at that time, he already felt that the aura of this continent was gradually becoming scarce, and even the luck of this civilization was gradually passing away.Otherwise, as the totem of the land of China, as the top beast, his wounds would not heal so slowly.

Because of the ominous premonition that belonged to the beast, he summoned the Mingzhenmen who had a contract with him before he fell asleep, and told them his injuries truthfully, indicating that he might not be able to give them shelter in a short time, but if this continent encounters a huge In the event of an irreversible disaster for human cultivators, he can still be summoned for help.

...Although, in his premonition, even he might not be able to reverse the overturn.

At that time, the master of the Mingzhen sect whose beard and eyebrows were all white...how did he say it?

'We cannot thank you enough for being under His Excellency's protection so far.Now that you are seriously injured and need to sleep, Mingzhenmen dare not be brazen to disturb you anymore... Human beings, we humans will take care of ourselves. '

Shen Xie remembered that he laughed at the other party to save face and suffer, so there was no need to do so.

But I didn't expect that after sleeping for so long, I was awakened today because of the suddenly strong dragon vein aura, and what I got was the news that all members of the Mingzhen sect—except for a child at that time—were all killed in the flames of war.

'does it worth? '

The moment he heard it, he couldn't help but want to ask—it seemed like someone had asked him that before.

He remembered that sect master was already in the Realm of Return to Reality, with a lifespan of a thousand years, and if he took another step, he would be able to ascend.Even if the aura is thin in the Dharma-ending Age, his state will not prevent him from being unable to protect himself.

But he died.For mortals.

--does it worth?

For a cultivator who can live for thousands of years, how much difference is there between a mortal and a mayfly who lives and dies?

And now, he saw the world that those people tried their best to preserve.

Shen Xie looked at the young white fingertips.It pokes on the barrier of that kind of crystal that generally doesn't know what kind of material it is—oh, it's something made by mortals again, using what "science".

That finger points to everything that is weird outside.

The world built by mortals "relying on the passing of knowledge from generation to generation" is a world that even he, a divine beast, would marvel at.

... "Is it worth it?! Shen Xie! You are a beast, your parents are Maodu Yujia, you once painted the land as a river with your tail, and you palmed clouds, rain and thunder! What are those human beings doing to you?!——Don't tell me how you feel The luck of this continent will be exhausted! In that case, so what if we swallow up the luck and aura of the mountains and rivers? Sooner or later, those people who cultivate and those inferior mortals will die. Even if you stop me, can you still stop me? Stop their death robbery?!"

The hoarse roar of Chaos in the struggle seemed to be in his ears again.

Shen Xie glanced at the row upon row of high-rise buildings outside the window, as well as those "refining products" of mortals who ran fast without spiritual power, which he still couldn't understand.

Xu Yunji Balabala talked a lot, from Edison and the electric light to Watt and the steam engine, from every inch of mountains and rivers and every inch of blood to bearing the burden of humiliation and learning from the West.

As soon as he raised his eyes, Mr. Yinglong's eyes were blurred, and there was a bewildered smile on the corner of his mouth. At a glance, he was already wandering into the sky, and he didn't know where he was thinking.

Xu Yunji: "..."

Very angry but dare not provoke.

So he could only shut his mouth and swallowed the impassioned modern history of Huaguo.

——He made up the history of this world vigorously during this period, which is easy to remember, because it is really very similar to Shuyuan Continent, so Xu Yunji felt very empathetic when he narrated it.

The difference is probably that cultivation in this world has never been developed into the mainstream society, nor has it been widely known.

In the Shuyuan Continent, the practitioners of the ancient Huachen Kingdom have been far superior to Western magicians and swordsmen for a long time, and their prosperity is also far superior to that of the West, claiming to be the best kingdom in the world.However, the long-term seclusion made Huachen Kingdom ignorant of the industrial revolution in the West.When Western magicians brought the product of the combination of science and magic - the magic crystal cannon, to break through the gate of Huachen Kingdom, Huachen Kingdom began to fall into a history of more than 100 years of humiliation.

And this world seems to have a similar development process after removing the metaphysics world.

However, judging from Xuan Lingzi's narration, perhaps the cultivation world did not do nothing during that catastrophe, but it was still not revealed in front of people.

Xu Yunji was thinking about Mr. Ying Long in a daze, so he stopped nagging and annoying others.Unexpectedly, as soon as I shut up, the boss who seemed to be distracted turned his head: "Why didn't you say it? You just talked about the Westernization Movement."

Xu Yunji licked his dry lips: "I thought you weren't listening."

The other party gave him a "unexpected" look:

"I thought you knew that it's not a problem for a cultivator to multitask, let alone a beast."

...All right, you are a boss and you are right.

Xu Yunji resigned himself to his fate and prepared to continue speaking.

But Shen Xie said again: "It sounds like the development of the past 100 years is very complicated. You can't explain it completely. Why don't I just read your memory?"

"?!"

Xu Yunji's eyes widened instantly.

What kind of joke is this?Can memory be read casually? !

In ancient times, in order to understand some things, high-ranking cultivators really read the memories of low-ranking cultivators at every turn, and even those with greatly different strengths could forcibly search for their souls.

But since modern times, no matter whether it is the Shuyuan Continent or this world, this kind of behavior has been banned.

Needless to say, searching for the soul is an act of seriously hurting the recipient. If the resistance is fierce, it will range from stupidity to sudden death.Even if you don't resist, searching for souls is like embroidering with a knife. If you poke a big hole in the "cloth (spirit) material (soul)", your memory will be severely damaged.

Even if the recipient voluntarily reads the memory, because the ability is relatively low, and the control is not good, it will often be accidentally read about very private things. This is a serious violation of human rights in modern times, and it is naturally Forbidden.

Xu Yunji was shocked when he heard Mr. Ying Long say that he wanted to read his memory.

His memory problem is serious!He is not from this world at all!Even if Xu Yunji knew how to conceal his memory and thinking, he had no confidence in being able to hide it from the ancient beasts.

He would have sprayed back this idea long ago when others raised it, but this is a beast who doesn't understand the modern world.Even if Mr. Ying Long looks easy to talk to, he is essentially an ancient dragon, not to mention that the Three Views have not yet been modernized, and his ability is beyond heaven.

It was rare for the young man to feel intense nervousness, his mind was spinning fast, and he tried his best to resolutely yet tactfully reject Shen Xie.

"That...Senior Shen Xie, this world has really changed a lot. Not only the mortal world, but also the rules of cultivators have changed a lot. The act of reading memories is illegal in modern society. You... so It might not be appropriate to do it?"

The man glanced lightly at the young man beside him, seeing his face racking his brains for words, a smile flashed in his pupils.

However, he said, "It means, you don't want to?"

He saw the young man's back stiffen up all of a sudden, like a frightened cat, and then his spine relaxed one by one, as if he was forcing himself to calm down.

The man looked at the other party with great interest, and looked at the other party's face, as if he was embarrassed but said firmly: "If you want to say that... Uh, yes."

...It was a bit of a surprise.

Shen Xie thought.

The group of people Xiu seemed to be afraid of him, as if they thought he would turn into some murderous monster in the next second.This young man was the most relaxed, but he was also a little scared.

But at this time, although there was a soft smile on his face that was almost showing weakness, his tone was very firm.

He couldn't help asking, "Aren't you afraid that I'll be angry?"

It was not the young man who answered him.

Feng Baoguo, who was on the co-pilot seat in the front row, said: "Senior Shen, checking memories is now banned by law. Xiao Xu has the right to refuse you. Although your cultivation is far superior to ours, at this point, We cannot make any concessions, please forgive me."

That tone had a taste of death.Shen Xie had no doubt that if he had to look at the memory of the young man next to him, this weak middle-aged man would definitely stop him.Even if he couldn't stop Shen Xie with a single finger.

The man burst out laughing after a brief moment of stupefaction.

Xu Yunji looked blankly at Mr. Ying Long, who seemed to have been pushed by some strange switch, and felt that the other party was really strange.

"Just kidding."

The corner of the man's mouth curled up, a bit nasty.

"It's fine if you don't want to. ——You guys look scared, it's fun."

Xu Yunji choked in his throat: "..."

May I ask if Ning is mentally ill?Sir?

If it weren't for the fact that no one can beat you, someone like you would have been beaten long ago.
