Chapter 227 The Way to Ascension

Murong Xue didn't plan to stop. Even if she wasn't qualified, she had to try her best...

When she was about to cultivate in the Space, she received an unexpected call. She almost forgot about him and the only meeting they had was too wonderful...

Murong Xue hesitated for a while and answered.

"Do you remember me?" His delicate voice came from the other side of the phone.

"Yes. Shangguan Lin. What’s the matter?" Murong Xue asked flatly, and it felt unfamiliar to hear his voice.

They had been friends. But they didn't talk to each other for a long time, and they became unfamiliar with each other.

"I think you have noticed after so long." There was laughter coming from the phone.

"What?" Murong Xue asked in confusion.

Shangguan Lin moved his hand which held the phone and asked her, "Didn't you notice the secret in your body? We seem to belong to the same world and we shouldn't waste our time in this world..." They should chase the path of becoming a god.

"Secret?" Murong Xue froze and was shocked. Did he know something other than her eyes?

Then she calmed herself down and asked, "I don't know what you're talking about."

"You have Heavenly Body. If you don't step into the world of ascension and improve yourself and someone from the ascension world knows about this, you won't end up well..." Shangguan Lin didn't scare her. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have known. Of course, he didn't tell anyone.

"What is Heavenly Body?" There were lots of things going on and she didn't understand. According to what Shangguan Lin said, it mustn't be something nice.

She was in lots of trouble.

"Your body is the best body to do ascension and is the best tripod furnace. Things in the world of ascension are not that peaceful. If someone finds out, you'll be locked down and be used as a tripod furnace."

He didn't plan to disturb her and wanted to let her be normal for the rest of her life. In the world of ascension, there was a rule that people couldn’t disturb worldly people. But for no reason, the rule couldn't control them. Recently, there was even a terrible organization, which only took someone like her to do research.

The more she listened, the more shocked she was. "Then I'm like a living bomb. I don't feel the difference and I don't know my body."

"Because I have different eyes, I can see it..." Shangguan Lin told the truth.

Was he going to threaten her? Was it what he meant? Murong Xue changed her look. Why did he call her? Did he just call for her Heavenly Body?

Murong Xue felt creepy the first time she saw him. It seemed that he could see through her, which made her feel she was uncovered. It was very uncomfortable as if she had been peeped.

"What do you want?" Murong Xue asked coldly.

Shangguan Lin laughed as if she had told a big joke.

"Why are you laughing?"

"Because it is too funny that you think I'm going to do something to you. If I'm going to do it, why would I wait until now?"

It wasn't wrong. "Thank you for telling me. I'll hang up if you don't have anything else..." No matter what he wanted, she didn't want to have anything to do with him, not to mention that he was Shangguan Mo's younger brother. Now she kept Shangguan Mo as a memory, which she didn't want to think of. She might remember it when she got old.

"Wait. Don't you want ascension? Didn't you hear what I said?" Shangguan Lin didn't expect her reaction was like this.

"I'll find my way." Murong Xue said flatly. She did want to become stronger and she seemed to find something. Even if she was still lost, she was sure what she found on the stone wall was the way of cultivation.

"Find? You won't find it no matter how hard you try. Now the world of ascension isn't strong like it used to be. There are some cultivation sects existing, and they have the ways of ascension, so you have to join a cultivation sect." Shangguan Lin told her everything about it.

Murong Xue listened carefully and knew it was the world she didn't know. "Thank you for telling me. You mean I should join a cultivation sect? But you said I was different. Does it mean that I throw myself to them?"

"Relax. I didn't find anyone who has X-ray vision except us. The most important thing is to get stronger. I could recommend you. It depends on you if you could join or not. The resources are getting fewer, and you could be picked up unless your level is good. Many people come but few stay." Shangguan Lin didn't know what he was going to do and he didn't like her.

He just wanted to drag her into his world.

Murong Xue frowned and had to doubt his motivation, but she didn't feel he was trying to hurt her. Like he had said, if he had been trying to hurt her, he would have done it. In fact, she did need someone to lead her in. She didn't know how long it would take if she tried to find the way all by herself.

"Okay. What do I need to do? Bring a present?" Murong Xue asked.

"No present. They don't want anything from this world other than magical fruits or the best herbs. You'll get yourself in danger if you have those things, so you don't have to prepare anything..." Shangguan Lin said.

Murong Xue wasn't dumb enough to take something out of the Space. She regretted it after she met that dangerous man. Luckily, the vegetables were not quite special and only had a little spiritual qi.

She didn't know what he put in her body. It seemed to be spiritual power. Thinking of this, she felt a headache because she didn't know any of this and found it dangerous, so she was interested in what Shangguan Lin proposed.

"Okay, when do we meet?" Murong Xue asked.

Shangguan Lin smiled after hearing she said yes. "Next month. I have to come to the cultivation sect and tell my teacher." He wanted his teacher to take her, so they could become the senior apprentice-brother and the junior apprentice-sister.

But his teacher said he would never have any more students, so he couldn't promise her even if he knew she was a genius. He chose not to tell this to anyone including his teacher. It was not that he didn't trust his teacher. He just wanted to own this little secret.

After hanging up the phone, she called Mo Ziwen and asked him to let Mo Group pay attention to Xiao Keli. They didn't have to do anything, and they just needed to tell her about Xiao Keli’s whereabouts because she wouldn't joke about Mo Group.

"Xiao Keli and Fang Shihua, let's see who would fall first this time." Murong Xue thought to herself.

Then she went to the plant and pet market to buy some birds and aquarium fish for her grandpa. She had them delivered because she couldn't take them all.

When it was done, she had them put in her room and they looked at her like she was an idiot. Who would put these things in the bedroom?

Despise their strange looks, Murong Xue felt a little awkward, but she insisted because she had to put them in the Space. The guards at the door would've known if she had done it in the lobby.

When everyone left, she put them in the Space and she went in there. Seeing all kinds of birds and fish, her grandparents were so happy that they looked like children. They looked at these birds and fish one by one. Murong Xue was happy but felt sorry for them. If it hadn't been for her, they would've enjoyed the freedom outside. No matter how nice the Space was, they didn't have friends here.

She needed to be stronger so that no one could threaten her or hurt her family. She was eager for power.

Especially, what Shangguan Lin told her today made her realize how ignorant she was and how powerless she was.

After saying goodbye to her grandparents, Murong Xue walked to the fall.

The only lucky thing she felt was she had much more time than other people. One day in the real world was ten years in the Space. If she couldn't be stronger with the Space, she would be a joke.

Murong Xue entered the road of the stones and started to cultivate hard day by day, year by year.

She went to pick up fruits from trees if she was hungry. After finishing eating, she continued to cultivate. The fruits were full of spiritual power, so it was helpful for her cultivation.

She didn't eat the magical fruits in the Space and told her grandparents not to pick them up and only to eat what she had planted before. It was not that she didn't want them to eat. Those magical fruits were full of spiritual qi, which was scary.

When she first came to the Space, she ate some magical fruits. Murong Xue didn't know it was because of her first few visits or something else. Anyway, she was okay because those magical fruits didn't have too much spiritual power.

Now these magical fruits were full of scary spiritual power and could kill people, so Murong Xue didn't dare to try.

She read all books just to find out about the trees and she found the answer in the Medicine Book. They were all magical fruits, which people in the world of ascension were crazy for them because these magical fruits could help upgrade their levels. It would be better if these magical fruits were refined as pills. Pills were less dangerous. After the magical fruits were refined and were neutralized with other herbs, people could absorb them easier and wouldn't be hurt by spiritual qi in the magical fruits.

If not necessary, she wouldn't try them before she was able to refine them into pills.

Day by day, Murong Xue didn't know how long it had been. Time passed quickly when she kept cultivating.

Now Murong Xue's skin became better and was full of divine glory, which made people want to be near her. It was the evidence of ascension. Normally, people who kept cultivating could easily appeal to other people because spiritual qi got rid of impurities in their bodies. Everybody loved purity.

Maybe it was the reason why Murong Xue could easily appeal to people. Because she had been eating things from the Space, she had spiritual qi in her body before she started to cultivate.

It could only change her image and make her easy to be with. Those who hated her would always hate her. Spiritual qi was not magic, and it wouldn't change people's feelings.

She was beautiful and now she was like a fairy.

Until Murong Xue felt it had passed a long time, she stopped and got out of there.

She checked on time and found it had passed ten days, and then it would be one hundred years in the Space. Cultivation was so scary, and time passed so fast.

Murong Xue thought of her grandparents in the Space and wanted them to cultivate with her.

She hoped her family could live long.
