The Geared Immortal

The Great Wu Cultivation Academy: 3

/*unedited*/

The Daemon Forest… the sea of green trees and roiling mountains seem endless towards the horizon. If only one can fly across the forest it would be a perfect way to cross it. But, it is a baffling mystery why airship powered with runes and spirit stones are unable to traverse this vast land. If an airship would dare to cross this area, it would cause their instruments and Qi flow within the vehicle to go haywire and blow up. Many scholars have tried to figure it out, even those powerful cultivators have tried to research this but they could not find the answer.

But now, everything has changed.

Atop the vast forest two large airships are floating. They are not powered by spirit Qi coming from the stone or the runes. But those ships are able to float above the forest without any problem. The only problem is that the noise it is producing.

These are airships build by mortals; it carries two types of engine. The first one is the normal engine which uses spirit Qi and natural energy core. This engine core is more stable and faster than the second engine. The second engine is bigger, and uses 2 specific types of natural energy and combined with science; they call it high-temperature plasma.

Due to the combination of magic and science, the underground base was able to find this alternative source of energy, besides thermal and solar, which their leader Shin Jiao has recorded. But due to the danger and volatility of this energy, it took them a long time to finally use it as a viable energy source. And this is also thanks to the Time Plate which made it all easier.

But that is not yet the final and ultimate source they are researching at the moment. In a secluded portion of the underground base, the Time Plate is still being used. This time, they are doing the final research on a black thing that their master has left for them, the black energy orb.

Elder Wan Bing is the one who is spearheading this research which according to the time they have spent inside the Time Plate has already taken them around 100 years. But they are still unable to finish the product. This is also because the data in the jade slip is still lacks something.

Atop the high walls of the ever-growing City of Dis stood a handsome young man with a solemn expression on his face. It has been months since he has arrived in this place and he already feels that this is the most beautiful place he has ever seen in his whole life.

The law and order in the city itself are truly amazing. Those haughty and arrogant cultivators could not show their domineering side in this city as once they began channeling their Qi and the array detects that it would cause destruction they would immediately be suppressed and taken to prison. If their reasoning is enough and they didn't cause too much trouble they would be tried fairly. Plus mortals and cultivators are treated with the same status in the city, so none dared do anything rash or else they would suffer the consequences.

Hence, Shin Jiao's peaceful life in the city of Dis and the town of Shin became peaceful.

Today he is with Qin Lou and the Qian Li attending an important meeting with the royal family of the Kingdom of Yi. The king himself along with his two sons and his favorite daughter is attending this banquet. And it would be held in one of the modern buildings built in the city of Dis, the Dragon Phoenix hotel.

This hotel has ten floors and around 500 meters in diameter. It looks like a half-circle with a huge garden maze in the middle. The elegant structure of the hotel was formed with the help if array formation experts and cultivator expert with terrain and land. The huge edifice is truly a sight to see making it one of the most luxurious places in the city.

The modern amenities inside the hotel were designed by the engineers from the town of Shin, giving it the feeling of being in the old and modern world at the same time.

"I wonder what that Shin Jiao who looks like me is truly like? If he can make these wonderful things then he must be a great craftsman. If only I can have his legacy then I don't have to hide and pretend to be an amnesiac person." Shin Jiao thought and feeling truly envious of the other Shin Jiao's accomplishments.

He also encountered a fortuitous event in his life when he fell from the cliff a year ago. At that time he was besieged by multiple forces and fell helplessly to his death. But he accidentally hit a tree branch and saw cave at the cliff wall. He dragged his bloodied body inside and saw a luminous pearl.

But then he suddenly felt that the luminous pearl is calling for him and he unconsciously crawled closer. Later did he know that the pearl is actually an artifact of an ancient cultivator, who wanted to take possession of his body.

The two fought and he accidentally won due to his own good luck. Since young, Shin Jiao knows that he has an extreme amount of good luck. No matter what he does it would always end in his favor. He needn't do anything as his luck would always fall on his lap. Hence he became a hedonistic young master of the Jiao family. He neither cultivates nor practices as he doesn't need them.

Then because of that good luck, he absorbs the power of that cultivator and reached the gold core realm primary-stage.

As his mind floated to the past, he is not aware of the young woman who silently walks towards him.

"What were you thinking?" the voice of Qin Lou enters his ears and takes him out of his reverie.

He then shifted his gaze from the sky to the woman standing beside him.

"Nothing, I just wanted to remember things. I truly wanted to remember you guys." Shin Jiao said with a serious expression.

"Don't rush it, everything will fall into place." Qin Lou said as she extended her hand and held his.

The warm feeling of her soft and tender hand, made Shin Jiao feel at a loss of what to say. In these few months that he stayed in this place, he had truly learned to like or even love this gentlewoman. Though until now, he is still curious why she would not show her face, yet he is sure that he didn't care how she looks.

What he wanted is her warm and the feeling she is showing him.

"Qin, I… I wanted to tell you something." Shin Jiao said as he looks seriously in her eyes.

As if the two are having an unconscious attraction to each other, their faces drew closer.

"What… is it?" Qin Lou asked.

Right now her heartbeat is beating faster.

"I… I think." Shin Jiao said with his eyes glued towards the woman.

As their face drew closer, Qin Lou closed her eyes as she expected something to happen.

"Ahem…" suddenly a man's voice interrupted the two.

"Mam, the royalties have arrived." The man added as he turns around and left the wall.

The two immediately took a step back with red blush appearing on their faces. Right now they were about to kiss, and Shin Jiao was about to lift, Qin Lou's veil so that he can kiss her soft lips. His imagination has already run wild that even his little brother unconsciously becomes stiff without him knowing.

"Cough… Ahem… ex… excuse me. I… I need to go." Qin Lou said while covering her flushed face as she floated down the wall and directly flew towards the grand hotel.

Shin Jiao, on the other hand, threw curses at the man who disturbed his time. It was his chance to get the woman he fancies. If they have kissed at that time, then he could control Qin Lou and live like a king in this place.

"Damn that bastard! I will kill him if I get my hands on him," he muttered as extreme killing intent suddenly surrounded his body.

He then unconsciously releases a strong amount of Qi covering his body.

Suddenly a voice came out of his wrist where there is a silver watch.

"Warning! Violation of city code 1.2, you are gathering a large amount of Qi for offensive purposes. Stop now or get out of the city. If you would not follow we are going to use extreme measures."

This voice woke him up from his anger.

"Damn it. These rules are shitty." Shin Jiao curses.

"I swear that if I became the husband of Qin Lou, I would revise these laws that forbid the power of cultivators. I will teach those weaklings a lesson." Shin Jiao thought as a glint of killing intent flash through his eyes.

But his expression returned to normal and he changes his expression into the old Shin Jiao who is gentle and kind.

Unknown to him, in a building not too far away, a woman is observing in the shadows. When she saw the expression he made and the killing aura his body emits, the woman flashed a contented smile.

She saw everything, even from the time that Shin Jiao was about to kiss Qin Lou. She saw it but didn't dare stop them. Though in her heart she felt jealousy boiling, however, she held on.

After observing everything, she felt contented and now plastered a crafty grin on her face and said.

"Got ya."
