“What should I say when I call the police? Should I say that I was brought here by the turtle shell? Should I say that I was kidnapped? Or do I tell them that I got lost?”
Just as Chen Mobai anxiously dialed the number of the immortal sect’s law enforcement department, something shocking happened.
There was no signal!
He couldn’t make the call!
On Planet Earth, even the bottom of the deep sea that was thousands of meters deep was covered by the satellites of the immortal sect.
Chen Mobai had even heard from a certain Rank-5 Array Master on television that 2,000 years ago, even the immortal cultivators who had fought their way into the Earth Abyss during the exploration war had been able to find the signal of Planet Earth and maintain communication between all the cultivators.
But where exactly was he now?
Chen Mobai was at a loss!
He went through all the knowledge he had in his head. He even searched all the places in the water mansion that were not dangerous and knocked on every brick on the ground.
However, in the end, Chen Mobai could only helplessly sit on the floor of the front hall.
There was no sign of him leaving.
Just as he was about to accept his fate and start cultivating, his cell phone screen suddenly lit up with a silver light, attracting his attention.
“Eh?”
He realized that the icon of an application that he had never downloaded before had suddenly appeared on his cell phone.
The icon was a dark green little turtle.
The name of the application was shown below the icon.
It was called “Turtle Treasure”!
What was this?
Chen Mobai subconsciously moved his finger to the app icon, wanting to uninstall it. He did not allow software that he was unaware of to appear on his cell phone.
Then, three red words, “unable to uninstall”, appeared on the screen.
What was going on?
This cell phone was out of control!
Chen Mobai was so angry that he was about to switch his cell phone back on when he suddenly had an idea.
The “Turtle Treasure” application… Could it be… That turtle shell!?
He quickly opened the app.
This action didn’t cause any trouble and he clicked on it smoothly.
It was a simple homepage with only three function buttons—[Teleport], [Return to City], and [Representative].
Chen Mobai was pleasantly surprised, but he still felt a little uneasy. He closed the app before opening it again. After confirming that there was no explanation, he clicked on [Return to City] based on his understanding.
[This process requires eight seconds of guidance. No interruptions are allowed during this time. Please find a quiet place.]
Just as he hit the [Return to City] button, a line of words suddenly appeared on the screen.
Just as Chen Mobai was still trying to figure out what could be considered an interruption, a silver light suddenly flashed and surrounded him. Then, like a spiral, it broke through the void and disappeared from the water mansion with him.
“Did I come back just like that?”
After the silver light flashed, Chen Mobai realized that he was standing in his room again. His hand was touching the turtle shell.
There was a whoosh.
He drew his hand back as quickly as he could and fell back to his bed. Then, he pulled out the sword that his father had bought for him at an attraction when he was young.
The sword was shiny, but it was designed for a child. Thus, it was only 30 centimeters long and was extremely shoddy.
The room was silent for about two minutes.
Chen Mobai stared at the turtle shell. Just as he was thinking about how to deal with this thing, the sound of the door opening came from the first floor.
His mother was back.
The familiar sound of the door opening and closing told Chen Mobai who it was.
As there was a sign saying “cultivating” on the door of Chen Mobai’s room, his mother did not disturb him. However, he still heard a familiar mumbling voice.
“This child, I’ve already told him to cultivate in the cultivation room at the entrance of the spiritual vein. Why does he still like to hide in his own room?”
Chen Mobai hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he did not go downstairs.
He gently returned the child-sized Demon Vanquishing Sword in his hand to its sheath. Then, using the Light Body Technique, he landed in front of the turtle shell and carefully observed it.
…
The next day.
In low spirits, Chen Mobai went downstairs and ate the breakfast that his mother had meticulously prepared while his mother nagged at him. Then, he carried his backpack and hurriedly caught the bus.
After the morning self-study session, a plainly-dressed old man walked into the classroom on time.
“Hello, Teacher Ding!”
After the students stood up and greeted him, Old Man Ding nodded calmly.
“Today, we will continue to explain the solidification of defensive Dharma spells…”
The teaching materials of the immortal sect divided the content that all cultivators needed to know into four courses.
The four courses were Dharma Spells, Pills, Equipment, and Array!
These four major courses were further divided into dozens of other subjects and specializations. To third-year students, it was necessary to choose one of these courses as their main course to set their future learning direction.
It was equivalent to the division of arts and sciences in high school before Planet Earth became a cultivation civilization.
However, there were now four subjects to choose from.
After all, if one wanted to get into those Dao Colleges, apart from their basic score in the college entrance examination and their cultivation level, there was also the final and most critical assessment issued by the Dao Colleges.
As for Chen Mobai’s class, they had chosen the Dharma Spell course as their main course.
Chen Mobai didn’t know why others would choose this course, but he had chosen this course because it was the most economical course.
As for the rest of the subjects, be it the Pill course, the Equipment course, or even the Array course, to practice or even improve, one would need a certain amount of resources and Karma Points.
Meanwhile, the Dharma Spells course was the most straightforward.
There was only one word to sum it up: practice!
Furthermore, one could choose to advance as a Talisman Master if they joined the Dharma Spell course. In the later stages of cultivation, it would be a profession with great potential for making money.
Since young, Chen Mobai had been determined to become a Talisman Master.
He had the family background to do so. After all, his mother worked in a talisman manufacturing factory. Under the influence of his mother, he had gained some insights Thus, he could shorten the time needed to learn the skills and spend more time on cultivation instead.
Old Man Ding was also known as Manager Ding. He was a well-known cultivator in Danxia City.
When he was young, his aptitude was alright. He had a True Spiritual Root with three attributes, which was slightly better than Chen Mobai’s.
His results during the college entrance examination had been average and he had barely managed to get into the local Danzhu College. However, he had a tenacious personality. Thus, after 20 years of hard work at Danzhu College, he had passed the Immortal Ascension examination of the ten top colleges and had been accepted.
However, he was too late in producing results.
Even though he entered Pure Yang College, cultivated the Qi Refinement Realm to perfection before the 60-year limit, and obtained the secret techniques of the Foundation Establishment Realm, he still failed at the verge of success.
After using his one-time attempt to reach the Foundation Establishment Realm, Manager Ding suffered for another 20 years. He once again cultivated the Qi Refinement Realm to perfection. Then, with great determination he tried to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm again.
However, it was a pity that things did not go well and Manager Ding still failed.
After two tries, he exhausted all his potential and returned to Danxia City, where he was born, to be a teacher.
Before reaching the Foundation Establishment, he had been focused on cultivation. However, after he had failed and returned to his roots, he had extra time to study the Hundred Arts of Cultivation.
Among them, because Dharma Spells did not require capital, Manager Ding had a deep understanding of it. However, his teaching skills were average and most people would get sleepy listening to him.
Usually, Chen Mobai wasn’t too serious, but today was different.
