Two years ago.
Lin Qing came to Suotuo City.
He did not go to Nuoding Academy, nor did he join Spirit Hall.
Instead, he chose a third path: making it on his own.
In Suotuo City, he created two identities for himself.
The first was “The True Lord Erlang” of the Great Spirit Arena.
A twelve-year-old boy with the “Spirit Eyes” Spirit—of course, it was a disguise.
The Heavenly Eye Martial Soul was hidden by his first Spirit Ability.
This identity was used to earn money, build fame, and hone his combat skills.
The second was the appearance of the eight-year-old boy he was now.
Ordinary features, completely unremarkable.
Used for daily life to avoid drawing attention.
Especially to avoid being targeted by that old pervert, Priest.
Lin Qing had not forgotten the lessons from the parallel World.
That guy liked good-looking young boys.
If he didn’t disguise this face of his, he would definitely be targeted.
If he were targeted, it would be a huge problem.
So for the past two years, he had been as low-profile as possible.
Aside from competing at the Great Spirit Arena, he basically stayed in his small courtyard to Cultivate.
However, he still gathered the information he needed.
Lin Qing walked out of the alley, blending into the crowd on the street, silently organizing the intelligence in his mind.
Viscount Priest was one of the many nobles in Suotuo City, but he was in the weakest tier.
Aside from a few Spirit Ancestor guards, the strongest in the Family was Viscount Priest himself, a Rank 32 Battle Spirit Elder.
His strength wasn’t great, but Lin Qing didn’t plan to make a move yet.
“There’s still a gap between a single-ring and a Spirit Elder.
Even if I can use Illusion to trick people, my direct combat power isn’t enough.
I have to wait.” Wait until his strength grew, or for a suitable Opportunity.
Besides planning to fulfill the 6-year-old Lin Qing’s dying wish for revenge, Lin Qing hadn’t been idle these past two years.
Naturally, he hadn’t neglected his Soul Power, steadily rising to Rank 20, and his Mental Energy grew rapidly under the nourishment of the Gold of Life.
This was also the source of his confidence to play tricks on a Spirit Grandmaster with Illusion.
…
He made his way back to the rented small courtyard.
It was a quiet courtyard in the southeast district of Suotuo City.
It wasn’t large, but it was peaceful.
Lin Qing pushed open the gate, walked inside, and locked it behind him.
“Buzz!” A familiar vibration appeared without warning.
Sensing something, Lin Qing walked into the guest room.
He saw a familiar black urn sitting on the wooden table in the guest room.
A familiar style, a familiar eerie feeling, and a funerary portrait was even drawn on the surface of the box.
The portrait depicted a twelve-year-old boy with black hair and blue eyes, wearing a uniquely styled silver-white uniform.
One could vaguely see traces of Lin Qing in his features, but his temperament was completely different.
Calmer, sharper.
His eyes held the rational light unique to a top student in science and engineering.
!!!
Lin Qing’s expression was one of wild joy.
It’s here, it’s here!
The urn is finally here!
The urn he hadn’t seen for two years had finally reappeared.
He had really been waiting for a long time.
[Ding!] The cold System notification sound exploded in his mind.
[Received the relic of “Sun Moon Lin Qing”!] [Would you like to examine the last words immediately?] Lin Qing was stunned.
“Sun Moon Lin Qing?” This name was a bit strange.
Could it be just to distinguish him from the previous two?
Lin Qing shook his head.
“I don’t care about that anymore, show me everything quickly!” The next second.
The light and shadows shifted before his eyes.
The video of the last words slowly unfolded.
[I am named Lin Qing, a reborn transmigrator.
I transmigrated to the Douluo Continent World.
At the age of six, I awakened the “Heavenly Eye” Spirit, with an Innate Soul Power of Rank 8.] Familiar last words, a familiar beginning.
Up to this point, everything was not much different from the previous last words.
Lin Qing was already prepared to hear the options of “joining Spirit Hall” or “going to Nuoding Academy.” However.
[I was in the Sun Moon Empire.
Because I had a mental-type Spirit and outstanding talent, I was scouted by the Sun Moon Royal Academy and admitted exceptionally, joining the Sun Moon Royal Academy.] ???
The real-World Lin Qing was dumbfounded.
He stared blankly at the grand academy in the light and shadow images, which was full of technology and metallic textures.
And those students wearing uniquely styled silver-white uniforms.
“What the hell?
Am I dreaming or hallucinating?” Lin Qing couldn’t help but doubt himself.
Only because the things mentioned in the last words were too inconceivable.
Sun Moon Royal Academy, isn’t that…
isn’t that the highest institution of the Sun Moon Empire during the unrivaled tang sect era ten thousand years later?
How could it appear here?!
How could the Lin Qing of this parallel World join the Sun Moon Royal Academy?
Wait.
Lin Qing suddenly realized.
“Sun Moon Lin Qing, the relic’s name is ‘Sun Moon Lin Qing’…
Could it be…” He gasped, his pupils contracting sharply as an absurd possibility surfaced in his mind.
“The ‘me’ of this parallel World isn’t from the current Douluo Continent timeline, but from the timeline ten thousand years later during the unrivaled tang sect era when the Sun Moon Empire exists!” This guess made Lin Qing’s heart race.
If that were true, the value of this relic would be immense!
Others might not know, but he was very clear about how far the Sun Moon Empire’s spirit tool technology had developed ten thousand years later.
That was a terrifying existence that could use technology to go head-to-head with traditional Spirit Masters!
Stationary Spirit Cannons, Rank 10 Spirit Tools…
taking out any one of them would be a dimensional strike in this current era!
“If this Lin Qing learned spirit tool technology at the Sun Moon Royal Academy…
then would his relic contain spirit tool knowledge?
Blueprints?
Or even finished products?” Thinking of this possibility, Lin Qing’s breathing became rapid.
His eyes were fixed on the urn on the table, as if what it contained wasn’t ashes, but a Treasure Trove!
This thought made Lin Qing so excited that his fingers were trembling.
After the excitement passed, Lin Qing couldn’t wait to continue watching the video of the last words.
He desperately wanted to know what his parallel self from ten thousand years in the future had experienced and what kind of legacy he had left behind.
[After joining the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, I began basic and systematic studies.] In the image, the boy was wearing a silver-white uniform, sitting in a bright classroom.
Complex Spirit Tool Circuit diagrams were drawn on the blackboard.
A teacher stood at the podium, their voice clear and serious.
“spirit tools are special devices that use Soul Power as an energy source.” “Their core lies in the Spirit Tool Circuits, which convert Soul Power into energy channels with specific effects.” “Today, we will learn the most basic Lighting Spirit Tool circuit design.” The boy took notes seriously, his eyes focused.
[In the beginning, I had many ideas.] A voiceover sounded, tinged with reminiscence.
[I knew this was the World of the unrivaled tang sect ten thousand years later, and I knew there were countless opportunities over on the Douluo Continent.] In the dormitory late at night.
Sun Moon Lin Qing was slumped over a desk, a simple hand-drawn map spread out before him.
Several locations were marked on it: Star Dou Great Forest, Extreme North Land, Shrek Academy…
and so on.
[Huo Yuhao, also known as Huo the Cheater’s two major cheats, the million-year Spirit Beast Tianmeng Ice Worm and the Holy Necromancer, Calamity of the Undead, Electrolux, were right there in the Star Dou Great Forest.]
