Volume 1: The Return of the Ancestor Chapter 1: Deserted Island Girl, Resurrection from the Dead?
Wow~
The waves hit the rocks and brought Wu Yue to the shore.
“Ahem.”
Wu Yue coughed up a mouthful of sea water, opened his eyes and looked around. Through the dim light under the dark clouds, he saw that it was a rather large island, and he felt slightly relieved.
She didn't know how long she had been soaking in the sea water. The tattered linen clothes stuck to her body, and she couldn't help shivering when the sea breeze blew.
"No, no matter how tired I am, I can't lie here, or I'm afraid I'll catch a cold. Besides, a storm is coming, so I have to find a place to hide as soon as possible."
As a pearl diver living by the sea, Wu Yue knows how terrible a storm can be.
She had been soaking in the sea water for so long that her body temperature had already dropped to an extremely low level. If she lay still on the reef and was beaten by the storm, she would catch a cold even if she was not swept away by the waves.
This island doesn't look big, and it's unlikely that there is a doctor. If she catches a cold, she might die.
Thinking of this, Wu Yue gritted her teeth, dragged her tired body to her feet, and staggered towards the island.
Thinking of what happened before, Wu Yue couldn't help revealing a hint of bitterness on her pale face.
She never imagined that Uncle Qin, who had treated her and her grandmother very well in the past, would actually take the opportunity of taking her out to sea to hunt for pearls alone to molest her.
If she hadn't jumped into the sea decisively, her innocence would have been ruined.
'She said that it was all my fault that I was so beautiful and that she couldn't help liking me, but she didn't think about the fact that she has a wife and children... Humph, she obviously just wanted my body.'
Thinking of Uncle Qin's ugly behavior on the boat, Wu Yue felt disgusted.
Boom!
Thunder roared.
But after a while, raindrops as big as beans began to fall down with a crackling sound.
Wu Yue gathered his thoughts and tried to quicken his pace towards the island.
There are not many tall trees on the island, but there are bushes and weeds everywhere, and the rocks are rugged. It looks a little scary against the backdrop of water vapor and lightning.
Wu Yue tried hard to walk towards the hill on the island. Based on her experience, she should be able to find a place to shelter from the rain there.
However, she had been severely exhausted from drifting on the sea. When she was going up the mountain, she tripped over a rock and fell, rolling to the other side of the steep cliff.
In a hurry, she grabbed a vine and stopped herself.
After climbing up, Wu Yue was surprised to find that a cave was revealed where she had pulled the vines apart!
"This island is not big, there shouldn't be any ferocious beasts, right?"
Thinking this in his mind and seeing that the storm was getting even stronger, Wu Yue mustered up the courage to walk into the cave.
Because it is on a slope, the cave is also sloping upwards, so it is very dry.
After entering the cave, Wu Yue didn't smell any strange smell, so he continued to walk inside in the dark.
After walking a few steps, she kicked over a pile of things. She squatted down and touched them, and couldn't help showing joy.
It turned out that there was a pile of dead branches and straw on the ground. Although it was covered with dust, it was dry.
"I heard that some hunters can use stones to start a fire. There are many stones in this cave. Maybe I can try it."
Wu Yue is a girl who dares to think and act, otherwise she would not have gone to the sea to collect pearls and take care of her grandmother at the age of thirteen.
In the year since her grandmother passed away, she has lived alone and has become stronger and more independent.
With an idea in mind, she combed the thatch, touched two stones, and started trying.
What surprised Wu Yue was that sparks flew out when one of the stones was touched.
“It’s actually flint?”
With an exclamation of surprise, Wu Yue worked even harder.
Because of his rich experience in starting fires, Wu Yue quickly built a small fire.
Fearing that there wasn't enough firewood in the cave, she didn't dare to burn too big a fire.
Then, she used the firelight to collect dead branches, weeds and other burnable things in the cave.
However, when she turned to face the inner wall of the cave, she actually saw a figure in the light of the fire, and she was so scared that she sat down on the ground.
If it were an ordinary woman, she would either be too scared to move or turn around and run away.
But Wu Yue didn't.
"Are you a human or a ghost?" she asked loudly.
The figure didn't move or speak.
Wu Yue held her breath, grabbed a burning branch and threw it over.
With the brighter firelight, she finally saw clearly that the figure was actually a man sitting cross-legged on a rock... or was it a corpse?
Wu Yue was a little uncertain.
Because the man was covered in dust and spider webs, she couldn't tell whether he was a mummy or not.
"He didn't respond even after shouting so loudly. It must be a corpse, right?"
She muttered to herself, also to further test the man. Seeing that he still didn't react, Wu Yue picked up a burning branch and boldly moved closer.
After getting closer, Wu Yue carefully brushed the cobwebs and dust off the man's body with the bundle of grass in her other hand.
Perhaps because it was too long, the man's robe was torn by a scratch from the grass stem.
Seeing this, Wu Yue basically confirmed that the man was a corpse.
Out of respect for the dead, she swept the floor more carefully.
But when he cleared the man's left hand, Wu Yue couldn't help but tremble and took three steps back.
Because she found that the man's skin did not show any signs of decay, just like a living person!
'Is he alive?'
"But judging by the dust on his body and the robe that gets torn when he moves, he must have been sitting in this cave for at least a few decades, right? How could a living person stay there for so long? If he was a living person, why didn't he respond when I called him?"
With his mind turning, Wu Yue boldly called out, "Senior?"
The man still didn't move.
"I've heard that wealthy people are buried with a precious pearl in their mouths after death, which can ensure that the body will be immortal for a thousand years. Could it be that this senior is holding such a precious pearl in his mouth?"
Thinking of the legendary orb, Wu Yue became bolder and started to clean up the man's body.
Wu Yue was very skillful and in a short while the dust and cobwebs on the man's body were almost cleared away.
At the same time, the man's appearance was revealed in front of Wu Yue.
To her surprise, although the man had a short beard, judging from the wrinkles on his face, he seemed to be only in his thirties. He had sword-like eyebrows, a straight nose, and a handsome appearance.
The most important thing is that even with his eyes closed and no sound, he still has an extraordinary temperament that makes May impressed.
She had gone down to the sea to collect pearls when she was thirteen years old. She was sixteen or seventeen now and had seen a lot, but she had never seen such a handsome man with extraordinary temperament.
But she quickly shifted her attention.
Because in the process of cleaning, she tore the man's robe in more places, revealing a layer of grayish-white silk robe underneath.
At first she was just attracted by the texture of the robe and subconsciously touched it. Then she found that this silk robe was not like the outer robe that would be torn with a single scratch. Instead, it was extremely strong, cool and smooth, and had a strange touch.
Even though she had never heard of such clothing, Wu Yue realized that it was a treasure.
She could choose not to take the pearl in the man's mouth because she didn't know if she could leave the island, but the man's silk robe was what she needed - she was too cold now.
Wu Yue hesitated before stripping the man's silk robe, then knelt down in front of the man's body and said sincerely: "I am Wu Yue, stranded on this deserted island, and it is fate that I met you here. However, I am hungry and cold at the moment, so I need your clothes. Please forgive me for my disrespect."
After saying that, he kowtowed to the man's body.
Unexpectedly, after the third knock, the ground where he knocked suddenly collapsed, revealing a small stone pit.
With the help of the firelight, Wu Yue suddenly discovered that there was an ancient sword and a dark golden scroll inside!
Wu Yue was immediately attracted.
She picked up the ancient sword first and found it was quite heavy, probably weighing more than ten pounds.
The sword was easily pulled out. The blade was black, but it had a sharp edge.
In addition, there were two strange characters engraved on one side of the sword that she did not recognize.
She picked up the scroll again and went to the fire to read it by the light.
Although she was a pearl diver, she learned to read thanks to her grandmother's teaching. She certainly could not write articles, but she had no problem reading some simple official notices.
However, when he picked up the scroll and looked at it carefully, Wu Yue was surprised again.
Because the scroll seemed to contain real gold, but it was made by some method she didn't know.
When he opened it, the front of the scroll seemed to be a sea chart, which Wu Yue could not quite understand.
Looking at the back, it was filled with handsome and elegant crimson characters:
My name is Su Yan. I have been wandering in this world for forty years and have achieved the state of innateness.
I wanted to pursue the ultimate in martial arts and break the void, but the innate practice is as difficult as ascending to heaven. Twenty years have passed like a flash, and my realm is still only the third level of the innate realm.
My mind began to change, and I led seven disciples to establish the Wuji Dao and pass on my martial arts.
After more than ten years, Wuji Dao became the best in the world, and I also entered the fourth level of Xiantian.
At this time, I happened to learn about the legend of the immortal gate overseas, so I built a big ship and traveled far overseas.
However, the sea of smoke is vast and the gate to immortality is hard to find, and instead encounters disaster.
The fleet capsized. Although I managed to escape, I was severely injured by the sea beasts and it was difficult to survive.
As I lay dying on this deserted island, I leave behind this letter and sword, hoping that someone destined to be my disciple will learn my skills and send my remains to the Wuji Dao on Kunwu Mountain.
Wuji Kungfu (Volume 1)
It can be cultivated to the sixth level of the acquired realm. The middle and lower volumes can be obtained from the current head of the Wuji Sect...
'It turns out that this is a relic of a sect's founder!'
Wu Yue's eyes sparkled.
She had heard many rumors about martial artists at the market, such as heroes who punished evildoers, gang leaders who controlled an area, martial arts masters who cut a river with a single sword, and so on.
When other girls heard such rumors, they mostly fantasized about meeting a certain young man by chance and having a passionate love affair with him.
Wu Yue, however, dreams of becoming a female knight, traveling the world and seeing the wider world.
Therefore, she was so excited that she immediately wanted to practice the "Wuji Gong".
After reading it, she helplessly discovered that the exercises involved many meridians and acupoints, as well as some descriptions of qi that she did not understand, and she could not understand them at all.
Wu Yue was not discouraged, but calmed down.
"Since I have decided to practice martial arts and become a female knight, I have to take Senior Su Yan as my teacher. But...is Wuji Dao very famous? I don't think I have heard of it."
Thinking of this, Wu Yue immediately took the scroll and the ancient sword and placed them in front of the man's body, knelt down, and said respectfully: "Master, please accept my disciple Wu Yue's worship."
After saying this, he bowed three times.
Then she said seriously: "Master, please rest assured. I will definitely fulfill your last wish and send your body back to Wuji Dao."
…
'Alas, I died just like that.'
'Huh, I'm alive again?'
When death came, Su Yan's consciousness sank into endless darkness, but suddenly revived.
Then he heard a strange sound.
"The Zushi simulator has detected that the user has met the startup requirements. The simulator is starting..."
"The simulator has been successfully launched. Please explore its functions on your own."
Then, Su Yan discovered that his "vision" was no longer trapped in the darkness, but spread out in all directions like light, stopping only when it reached a radius of three meters.
But his perspective was a little strange. It was not the binocular perspective he was used to, but a 360-degree camera with no blind spots centered on a certain point inside his skull.
However, when this "vision" encounters the ground or the walls of a cave, its range suddenly decreases, and it becomes more blurred as it goes farther away.
For example, underground, he can now "see" a depth of ten feet, but the soil layer he can clearly see is only one foot.
After exploring this "vision" for a while, Su Yan felt tired and sleepy.
The surprising discovery made him hold on, and he thought to himself: This feeling and function are very similar to the legendary divine consciousness.
But according to my speculation from some incomplete classics, doesn't it mean that one has to at least cultivate to the virtual realm and sense the primordial spirit before divine consciousness can be born?
Could it be that not only did I not die, but I turned a disaster into a blessing and entered a virtual realm above the innate?
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Su Yan became excited and wanted to move.
It turned out that he couldn't move at all, or rather, he had no feeling of his body at all!
How is this going?!
Am I not alive? Am I still dead?
In doubt, Su Yan thought of the strange sound just now, and then thought of the Patriarch Simulator.
Then a strange interface appeared in my consciousness——
