Chapter 367: Before the storm

Translated by: La0o9

Proofreader: Arya

Silently, a new age had begun.

After the world conference, Impartial G.o.ddess immediately activated her protocol.

4 PM.

The very first world-wide cultivation stream began.

The first user of the [Cultivation Bracelet] had prepared herself.

She was about to live-stream her entry into cultivation for the whole world to see.

As for why she was chosen as the first user, it’s because of her world-wide fame and her nonstop charity work for the last few years in helping the disaster-struck areas around various countries.

The world No.1 idol, Xie Shuang Yan.

Her exceptionally pure and breath-taking face was exceptionally appealing to the viewing audience.

“Impartial G.o.ddess I want to ask, if I use the given serum, but don’t manage to trigger any Martial arts, G.o.d’s Chosen or Elementalist talents, will I still be able to cultivate?” she asked.

[Of course, everyone can cultivate, but the progress will be different according to individual talents] Impartial G.o.ddess answered her.

“Then I have no more questions” Xie Shuang Yan answered.

She wore the silver bracelet.

[The first human user is about to begin cultivation. User Xie Shuang Yan, do you confirm that you want to use the Cultivation Bracelet?] Impartial G.o.ddess’ voice came.

Xie Shuang Yan nodded: “I confirm”

[Cultivation, begin]

The silver bracelet lit up.

A 3D projection appeared, covering the room in a mystical sea of clouds and sacred mountains.

Xie Shuang Yan was wearing colorful fluttering costume in the wind, looking as if she was a fairy on earth.

This was a common female cultivator’s outfit which Gu Qing Shan brought to Reality.

As a first-cla.s.s beauty, Xie Shuang Yan wearing the costume made for a brilliant, unforgettable sight.

This introduction alone caught the interest of countless people.

[Greetings, Xie Shuang Yan, please state your preferred Profession] Impartial G.o.ddess’ voice came.

Following her voice was three different insignias that appeared from thin air.

An Elemental insignia, a praying insignia and a fist striking insignia.

“I want to be a G.o.d’s Chosen” Xie Shuang Yan reflexively.

Impartial G.o.ddess spoke: [Each person has one free chance to choose a Profession, would you like to use it now?]

“What will happen after I choose?”

[I will use miniature warp technology to send a vile of G.o.d’s Chosen Awakening Serum to you, which you will have to use right away]

“What if I haven’t awoken after the first use and wanted another one?”

[Then you need to contribute to humanity and use your Merit to exchange for it]

Xie Shuang Yan’s eyes swam for a bit before she replied: “Then, I want to cultivate for a while first to understand my true preferred Profession before choosing, will that be ok?”

[Of course you can. In fact, that will be better]

“Then please help me cultivate now”

Impartial G.o.ddess began to explain: [The first realm of cultivation is called Qi Training]

[You have received a basic Qi Training scripture]

[I will monitor your cultivation progress to help you plan out your cultivation career and adjust accordingly]

[Furthermore, to receive a higher-leveled cultivation scripture, you must make appropriate contributions]

[Let us begin the first step: Qi Training stage 1]

[Initiating Qi Training stage 1 method formula transmission]

[Currently explaining the key points of the method formula step by step]

[Please use the method formula and begin experimental cultivation]

“Yes”

Xie Shuang Yan read the words that appeared in front of her eyes, then the explanations below.

It was a completely strange new thing that even someone like her would feel curious to try out.

She thought for a bit, then closed her eyes and began to cultivate via the method she just received.

A few minutes later.

Xie Shuang Yan opened her eyes.

“Is it like this?” she asked.

A small white dot appeared, hovering in her palm.

A completely unknown power.

Xie Shuang Yan was silently surprised.

Impartial G.o.ddess spoke: [Congratulations, you’ve reached Qi Training stage 1]

[Next, you shall receive the method formula for Qi Training stage 2]

Another method formula appeared.

There wasn’t too much text here, just like before.

Xie Shuang Yan closed her eyes and continued to try cultivating with the method she just received.

Fortunately, since she was such a beautiful girl, most people didn’t feel bored as they simply watched her standing with her eyes closed.

A few minutes later.

Xie Shuang Yan raised her palm.

This time her entire palm was glowing.

“Is it like this?” she asked.

Impartial G.o.ddess checked her for a bit before responding: [Congratulation, you’ve reached Qi Training stage 2]

[Next, you shall receive the method formula for Qi Training stage 3]

Once again, Xie Shuang Yan quickly broke through to Qi Training stage 3.

Impartial G.o.ddess went silent for a bit, then spoke: [Continuous breakthroughs will affect your foundation adversely. Next, please use the method provided in the first three stages to settle your cultivation]

“Ah, alright” Xie Shuang Yan spoke regretfully.

However, right now she’s already able to control a few small objects to fly back and forth.

She thought for a bit and swung her hand.

A gla.s.s came flying into her hand.

Xie Shuang Yan drank some water from the gla.s.s.

She then looked at the screen and asked: “I heard that if your cultivation reaches a high enough level, you’ll be able to increase your lifespan?”

[Correct, after Qi Training realm comes Foundation Establishment realm. Your lifespan at Foundation Establishment realm will be 150 years] Impartial G.o.ddess replied.

“Then after that?”

[Golden Core realm 500 years]

Xie Shuang Yan was shocked, whispering: “So much”

[Asides from lifespan, your current abilities will also be amplified greatly, your attack power in particular ——at Qi Training realm, it’s estimated to be a 20% increase]

“Is that so?” Xie Shuang Yan was intrigued.

She was really interested now.

She then looked at the screen and smiled: “And so, our live-stream today ends here, please feel free to enjoy the rest of the content on your own”

The live-stream ended.

The planet went into an uproar.

Lifespan!

Power as a Professionist!

Everyone almost went into a frenzy, thirsting for a [Cultivation Bracelet] of their own.

6 PM.

h.e.l.l was still slowly descending.

The government of countries around the world all announced the official distribution of the [Cultivation Bracelet] to all their citizens.

The governments will shoulder the cost for the initial serum.

Even the materials used to make these bracelets were provided by the world governments.

But anyone who receives them has to sign a contract to work for the country and for humanity as a whole, obeying orders to fight against the Apocalypse as they arrive.

Anyone that violates this contract will have their right of usage permanently taken away.

The age of cultivation, went into an uproar right on the very first day!

The mountaintop mansion.

Everyone had returned, resting on the sofas.

Gu Qing Shan glanced at the time.

Huang Quan reinforcements are about to come.

“Something is definitely up with that Xie Shuang Yan girl” Liao Xing abruptly spoke up.

“What do you mean?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“She only needed to open and close her eyes for a few dozen minutes and she’s already Qi Training stage 3, do you know how much effort I spent!?” Liao Xing angrily complained.

“It’s fine, she’s just talented, of course you’re talented too, but some people are just unparalleled in that aspect” Gu Qing Shan smiled.

He thought about it carefully, then added: “But there should be a notice to make sure that other people don’t take Xie Shuang Yan’s speed as a standard for themselves”

[Understood, sir] Impartial G.o.ddess replied.

“Also, you guys killed the Pope but all the Monarch gave you was a d.a.m.n medal?” Liao Xing pointed at the medal in Zhang Ying Hao’s hand and scoffed.

“It’s not just ANY d.a.m.n medal” Zhang Ying Hao smirked: “This is a special medal that the Monarch gave only to us, using this, I won’t need to pay for any facilities or resources used at the f.u.xi Empire, since they’ll be paid for by the country”

Liao Xing opened his eyes wide and asked: “Then, can others borrow this?”

“Unfortunately, there’s an identification chip in the medal, others can’t use it”

“How useless” Liao Xing begrudgingly complained.

Impartial G.o.ddess suddenly asked: [Sir, I found that high-level cultivation requires a lot of resources, as well as specially-manufactured products, such as the pills mentioned in a few of these scriptures ——I cannot manufacture them, how will we deal with this?]

“That can wait” Gu Qing Shan didn’t seem bothered, “we’ll have more than enough time to solve this from now until enough people reach Foundation Establishment realm”

[Understood] Impartial G.o.ddess replied.

Impartial G.o.ddess was happy to leave it at that, but Liao Xing wasn’t.

“Hey this is a really big problem, how exactly are you going to solve it?” he asked.

“Just wait for it” Gu Qing Shan said.

“Just tell me, there’s no need to act all mysterious” Liao Xing said, irritated.

Gu Qing Shan smiled: “I’m not acting mysterious. I’m just afraid that you’ll go crazy if I tell you”

“Just tell me, or I WILL actually go crazy”

“Fine, if you manage to pull through this crisis, I’ll take some time to merge two worlds together” Gu Qing Shan told him.

“Ah wait, it should be three worlds” he added.

Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit, then seemingly recalled something, as faint killing intent rose from his body.

“…or perhaps four…”
