I said I would turn back time
Chapter 392 The way forward and inspection
In a dilapidated small building in the city.
A creaking sound came from the floor along with the footsteps.
Xia Yuying dragged her steps up the stairs and walked slowly towards her room. She couldn't help but think of the man she met in the cemetery today.
"How can you master the second pass or even the third pass in a short time?"
"As expected of the old ghost's acquaintance, even more unreliable than the old ghost."
Xia Yuying frowned slightly, and some light and shadow from the past seemed to flash in her eyes.
The man's words today reminded her of some words once said by the head of the Evil Slayer Sect.
"My child, you are endowed with extraordinary talents and qualifications. You are a good talent for slaying evil and defending the Way. Master, I will not be mistaken. Your future achievements will definitely be higher than mine."
Xia Yuying shook her head, as if she wanted to get rid of the memories of the past.
She opened the door and walked into her room. Apart from a single bed and a simple wardrobe, there was nothing else in the room, which was less than five square meters.
Xia Yuying opened the closet and put on her takeout clothes. She encouraged herself: "As long as I make five more months of money, I should be able to make up for the tuition. Come on! Xia Yuying!"
Although today's cities have more complete surveillance, network and AI management systems than in the past, from time to time you can see the drones of the Security Agency flying over the city like a flock of birds.
However, logistics systems such as express delivery and takeout in urban areas do not extensively use AI-controlled mechanical creations.
After only several years of war, energy is more valuable than before in this chaotic era. In contrast, the increasingly concentrated population after the surge of inspiration and the greatly increased per capita physique have made manpower efficient and cheap.
As a result, a large number of civilians like Xia Yuying relied on the strong physique gained after the surge of inspiration to complete tasks such as express delivery and takeout, and they could also practice their skills while working.
Just like wrenches, jacks, forklifts and other tools have been largely replaced by human hands and feet.
Many tasks of pulling the trigger, analyzing data, and checking conversations are gradually being replaced by AI and machines.
Machines and manpower complement each other in this bizarre era.
But at this moment, the girl who originally took the time to deliver food every day and only came back to take a nap was not in a hurry to set off this time.
She subconsciously looked at the stack of books placed at the bottom of the closet.
"Introduction to Quantum Martial Arts", "Learning to Breathe in and Out in Ten Minutes", "Original Book of Nine-Yang Magic", "Six Desires Divide Demons", "Quantum Immortality Ceremony"...
This 'textbook' shows Xia Yuying's experience of being deceived time and time again in the past.
At this moment, Xia Yuying looked at these books without feeling ashamed or angry, but just sighed with nostalgia.
Who was not full of dreams when he was young?
Who has never thought that he is also a genius with a future of reaching the sky?
At this moment, Xia Yuying, who came back from the cemetery, thought of her past self, but the biggest feeling she felt was that she missed the self that was full of infinite hope in her heart.
At that time, although my abilities in all aspects were far inferior to what I am now, I had more possibilities and more courage because I was young enough.
It's not like she is now, who only thinks about delivering takeaways to collect money, studying in the future, and finding a job that doesn't require talent cultivation but has a higher income...
"But this is reality."
"People will eventually admit their own mediocrity and embark on the path they once hated..."
"My past self knew that the job I would do in the future would be very hopeless, right?"
Xia Yuying sighed in her heart. Although she missed the dream-filled self, she understood that dreams were just dreams after all, and people still had to live in reality.
She didn't want to continue living in delusion like her master, or the master's friend at the tomb.
Xia Yuying picked up the old book that she had been reluctant to throw away, and planned to take it to the scrap station on her way to work.
At this moment, she looked at the figure who had appeared on the ground. She turned around suddenly and saw that the man she met in the cemetery had appeared in the room and was standing behind her.
The man was holding the "Original Book of Nine Yang Magic" in his hand, and while flipping through it, he smiled and said: "The secrets in this book are made up randomly, right?"
"The real secret skill requires a good foundation of first-pass and second-pass skills and sublimation before you can start practicing."
"But this author should have also practiced martial arts. Some of the training methods are effective, but they are not so magical."
"The fact that you can buy this kind of book means that you have also wanted to embark on a path of becoming a strong man, right?"
When she was a child, she was deceived into buying a book and being read like this, Xia Yuying felt a little embarrassed for a moment.
She looked at Lin Xing and said solemnly: "Although the building here is broken, it has access control and surveillance. How did you get into my room?"
Lin Xing did not answer this question.
He just closed the book, looked at Xia Yuying and said slowly: "You... still want to change your destiny? Just like you once did."
Xia Yuying said: "Look at this room, I really don't have any money, you should find someone else."
Lin Xing smiled nonchalantly, and at some point a crystal clear blood-colored dagger appeared in his hand.
"I've been looking for someone who can change my destiny and step into a new world with me."
He slowly walked up to Xia Yuying, looked into the girl's eyes and said, "This dagger can be considered a gift from me to you."
He placed the dagger in front of the girl and continued: "Of course, I don't want to force your will, so what you do with the sword is up to you."
"But if you change your decision, you can find me at 15:15 tomorrow in the fifth row and fourteenth column of the second east section of the cemetery."
The girl was slightly startled. She remembered that that should be the place where they met today.
Lin Xingze continued: "I will wait for you there for 15 minutes."
The girl was about to reject the other party again, but found that the man who was standing in front of her just now had disappeared at some point.
Only the red crystal-like dagger lay quietly on the ground, indicating that what just happened was not Xia Yuying's hallucination.
Of course Xia Yuying didn't plan to go to any cemetery to keep her appointment. She picked up the bloody dagger and was thinking about whether to call the police.
"Could it be some new type of fraud?"
Suddenly, she looked at the surface of the bloody dagger and found that there seemed to be figures moving in it.
"This is……"
The next moment, endless memories rushed into her mind from the dagger.
Xia Yuying screamed and felt that the flesh and blood all over her body swelled slightly.
A sharp pain exploded from every part of his body.
Before she could make any reaction, she completely fainted.
And just as she fainted, her whole body erupted with a series of explosions, and the flesh, flesh and bones under the skin seemed to be growing rapidly.
And a pressure also unfolded from her body.
At first, this coercion was only at the level of the first pass, but it soon grew to the peak of the first pass, and then directly broke through to the level of the second pass, and then grew rapidly all the way, and continued to get stronger.
…
I don't know how long it took, but Xia Yuying slowly woke up. She felt dizzy in her head, as if she had been knocked unconscious by something.
She wanted to get up, but as soon as she thought about it, she found that she was floating directly into the air.
A raging spiritual thought lifted her up in the air like an extended limb.
Feeling the powerful spiritual thought she had at this moment, she was completely shocked.
"Is my spirit so strong?"
But the next moment she saw her hands, feet, and her stronger body, she suddenly became even more confused.
"Is this my body?"
And while she was shocked again and again in her mind, she had already sensed her current state with her own understanding.
Strength: 4.2
Sensitivity: 4.3
Endurance: 4.5
Spiritual Thought: 6.1
"This... various qualities have increased several times, right? How could I become so strong all of a sudden?"
Just when Xia Yuying felt confused, she found that there seemed to be many more memories in her mind.
Divination, talismans, formations... She clearly didn't remember the skills and sublimations she had practiced before, but they were pouring out one after another at this moment, and she could master them easily.
Looking at the blazing fire on her fingertips, Xia Yuying felt that the Taoist power contained in it was as familiar to her as if she had practiced it thousands of times.
She murmured: "Second pass Taoist priest... I actually broke through to the second pass?"
The real power flowed back and forth in her body, but Xia Yuying still felt a sense of illusion.
Suddenly, she remembered what happened before she woke up.
"That dagger, I fainted after touching it, and then I woke up..."
Xia Yuying suddenly lowered her head and searched for a while. The room less than five square meters was clearly visible, but she could not find the sword shadow.
At this moment, a thunderbolt flashed through her mind, and the memory of the mysterious man resurfaced.
"If you change your decision, you can find me at 15:15 tomorrow in the fifth row and fourteenth column of the second east section of the cemetery. I will wait for you there for 15 minutes."
Xia Yuying secretly thought: "Is it that man? Did he really... really made me break through to the second pass all of a sudden? It's incredible, it's a miracle!"
At this moment, Xia Yuying's heart seemed to be cleared of haze, and the road to becoming a strong person, which had been abandoned or even despaired, was once again opened to her.
She couldn't bear the excitement and surprise in her heart at this moment, but instinctively felt that her life was about to undergo earth-shaking changes at this moment.
And she immediately made up her mind that she would find the man again and find out what was going on.
Picking up her phone and looking at the time, Xia Yuying found that it was already 14:50 the next day, and she actually slept through the next day.
"Oops! It's too late... It will take more than an hour to get to the cemetery from here, even by taking a taxi..."
But Xia Yuying soon realized that she had enough power at this moment, and she could be faster than a car at this moment.
I saw her silhouette flashing and she had already fled out of the building.
Her whole body faintly carried a burst of fire, and with the simultaneous explosion of her physical body and spiritual thoughts, she shot away in the direction of the cemetery.
"Hurry up!" Feeling the passage of time, Xia Yuying said anxiously: "Hurry up... don't leave."
A young man who was waiting for the traffic light heard the sound of breaking through the air. He raised his head and saw a figure shooting out like lightning.
"Is there an expert? Is this speeding?"
He raised his phone and wanted to take a photo to report the other party, but found that there was some malfunction on the phone and he couldn't take the photo.
…
15:29
Xia Yuying hurriedly and slowly arrived at the cemetery.
But he found that there was no one in front of the tombstone.
"left already?"
A strong sense of loss surged from Xia Yuying's heart. At this moment, she felt as if she had lost something extremely important, and she couldn't help but regret her reckless refusal yesterday.
Xia Yuying reluctantly walked back and forth in the cemetery several times, still trying to find the mysterious man.
Just when she felt discouraged, a voice sounded from behind him: "You came here and made a lot of noise. I just helped you eliminate some of the influence."
Xia Yuying turned around with surprise on her face, but when she saw Lin Xing in front of her, she became a little nervous: "You yesterday..."
"Oh, you have mastered the power of the second inheritance, right?"
Lin Xing looked at Xia Yuying and said casually: "No need to thank me. It was mainly due to your own efforts and accumulation that you have achieved this step."
However, Xia Yuying only felt that the other party was being modest. With no hard work and accumulation, she was able to cross a great realm overnight. It was so unbelievable that it was like a miracle. It was all because of the man in front of her.
At this moment, Lin Xing was already a god-like existence in his eyes.
After all, even among the four rumored Immortal Emperors, I have never heard of anyone switching from first pass to second pass overnight.
Thinking of what the other party said yesterday, Xia Yuying said nervously: "What do you need me to do?"
Lin Xing smiled slightly and said: "The Evil Slayer Sect has mastered many methods of detecting, hunting and trapping evil spirits."
"What I want you to do is to capture evil spirits for me and put them into the spiritual caves in Donghai City."
"Then seal it with a formation..."
Listening to Lin Xing's talk, and the various techniques, sublimation, and inheritance of the Evil Killing Sect, Xia Yuying felt more and more unfathomable.
"By the way, turn on your phone."
After hearing this, Xia Yuying turned on her phone and found that someone had added her as a friend.
Lin Xing said: "The person who added you as a friend is Xiao Zhao. She will assist you secretly, help you collect evil intelligence, and do some logistics and aftermath work."
"I know that if the Taoist priests of your evil-killing sect want to transform their skills, they need to hunt down evil spirits."
"You can complete your skill transformation along the way. As long as you are ready, you can come to me at any time. I will help you complete the skill training and sublimation after the transformation..."
Hearing this, Xia Yuying couldn't help but feel a little excited: "If this happens, won't I be able to break through to the third inheritance soon?"
"I can also become one of those big names who appear in the news, be proud of everyone, and dominate the world..."
So after a while, Xia Yuying retreated to the house in Nanhai City with excitement.
She took her suitcase and embarked on the road to capture Xie Sui under the guidance or monitoring of Zhao Wanxi.
Looking at the fading city scenery, Xia Yuying felt as if she had returned to the past, back to a time when her heart was full of hope and she felt that there were infinite possibilities for the future.
…
A few days later.
Inside the Institute of Quantum Intelligence.
Mo Xingye was working as usual, but from time to time he would think of Lin Xing, Duan Feixia and Ma Hong at home.
"The number of people... is getting bigger and bigger, making it hard for me to sleep even when I go back now."
"Why don't you just sleep in the office today."
At this moment, Mo Xingye heard the whispers from his colleagues. It seemed that some big shot was coming to inspect the institute today.
However, they didn't know exactly who it was, so after guessing for a while, they dispersed and went to work.
It was busy until noon, and Mo Xingye was taken out just after finishing his meal.
"Let's go, Lao Mo. The director asked us to go to the hall to greet the guests."
Mo Xingye couldn't help but said, "What guests should I welcome?"
"The director asked you to go by name. The person who came to inspect this time is said to be a super important person. Don't lose your temper again then."
Mo Xingye was dragged to the gate helplessly by the other party, and found that almost all the director and other important leaders in the institute were already there. Even the nearby management officials seemed to have heard something and came over here.
After a while, a row of luxury motorcade drove into the research institute.
Seeing a large number of security personnel starting to seal off the scene, Mo Xingye became more and more curious: "Who is it that makes such a big show?"
The next moment, several figures got out of the car in the middle.
When he saw one of them, Mo Xingye's pupils dilated instantly.
"That is……"
A pair of amber eyes appeared on his handsome face, and his tall body exuded an infinite sense of power. The strong aura in every move suppressed everyone present, just like a walking cat and dog. The king of beasts among dogs.
"The president of the new country?"
Mo Xingye had seen in the news that the new President of the Republic of China was coming to Donghai City for a visit, but he did not expect that the other party would actually come to the Quantum Research Institute for inspection.
At this moment, I saw the leaders on the scene approaching him respectfully, as if they were receiving condolences from their superiors, welcoming the arrival of the president.
Looking at the president of the new country, Mo Xingyi felt that he was more like the owner of this place than the person he was greeting.
But Mo Xingye can also understand that the president of the new country was already extremely powerful. Some time ago, he beat the Great Light Buddha into seclusion to practice, and his reputation became even more famous for a while.
No matter how arrogant you are, you will feel down when standing in front of such a strong person who can crush you to death at any time.
Especially under the pressure of the opponent's momentum, there is a natural fear of not disobeying the opponent, a fear that comes from biological instinct.
Mo Xingye lowered his head slightly when he thought of Lin Xing at home, deciding to be a little transparent and not have any interaction with this one of the top four in the world.
But just when the group of people passed by Mo Xingyi, they all suddenly stopped.
The president turned his head, looked at her and said, "Is this Mo Xingyi?"
The director on the side said quickly: "Yes, Dr. Mo Xingye is a doctor with long-term illness. He has treated many patients in our institute in the past few years and has extensive research on mental health and evil influences."
The President smiled slightly, but in Mo Xingye's eyes, it felt like he was seeing a wild beast showing its mouth full of sharp teeth.
"Then let Dr. Mo help me introduce the work of your institute."
