Chapter Twelve: Stepping into Another World

  Not long after, in this strange and unfamiliar world, there appeared over a dozen incredibly powerful individuals. They were benevolent, kind-hearted, and almost all-knowing and all-capable. They always did their best to help these weak and small humans.

  It's especially worth mentioning that these exceptionally powerful people told humans about the existence of Mirage Ocean. Mirage Ocean is a very mysterious thing, it exists within every person's body. And the reason why humans in this world are so weak is because they still don't know about the existence of Mirage Ocean, and they still don't know its true function.

  Mystic Ocean, a mysterious ocean that exists within every person's body, is actually the source of human power. However, most of the time it is dormant. To truly gain great power, one must awaken the Mystic Ocean.

  Is it true that awakening the dormant "Fantasy Sea" within oneself can grant immense power? And how exactly does one awaken this Fantasy Sea? Everyone is perplexed, yet these incredibly powerful individuals who have suddenly appeared in this world are tirelessly and painstakingly teaching people how to unlock the dormant source of power within themselves.

  Originally, people were half-believing and half-doubting about the words of these powerful men. But when the first pioneer finally succeeded, everyone was boiling over. This is true, this is really true. In the human body, there is indeed a Fantasy Sea, and once it is awakened, one can gain unimaginable power.

  Power, unparalleled power. With it, one can have enough strength to protect oneself and one's loved ones, and when people are in danger, they can provide them with strong help. Even, this powerful force can easily get everything that was previously unimaginable for oneself.

  Awaken the Fantasy Ocean! I also want to awaken the Fantasy Ocean! In pursuit of powerful strength, people have gone completely crazy. As the saying goes, desire is the greatest driving force for people's progress. The great temptation of acquiring powerful strength makes people train themselves frantically like madmen, improving themselves. And the effort doesn't disappoint those who are diligent, finally more and more people start to awaken the Fantasy Ocean, starting to acquire the enviable powerful strength.

  Finally, the humans in this world are no longer weak. And when facing those arch-enemies of humanity, the savage beasts, they finally have the power to fight back. Humans have finally become the masters of this world. It's great, really great!

  To thank these powerful people who taught them the awakening of the fantasy sea, they are respectfully called heavenly gods. Omniscient and omnipotent heavenly gods. As long as you believe in the heavenly gods, as long as you worship the heavenly gods, you can gain great benefits. Before long, the reputation of the heavenly gods spread to every corner of this world. When it comes to the heavenly gods, people show unparalleled reverence and admiration.

  But...

  Time flies like an arrow, let's recall our thoughts from the distant end of the memory river. The real story has slowly unfolded its grand curtain. Here, the sky is a brilliant blue, the lake water is crystal clear, and the air is fresh and expansive. Under the blue sky, by the lake shore, a large crowd of people gathered around. In the midst of the crowd stood a man with an extraordinary physique, robust and sturdy. "Ladies and gentlemen, I have been practicing martial arts since childhood, never daring to slack off. It can be said that I practiced in the freezing cold of winter and the scorching heat of summer. Thanks to the blessings of heaven, I finally cultivated a body as hard as steel, impervious to knives and guns, water and fire!"

  "Who can't talk big? Bring out the evidence and let's take a look!" The onlookers burst into laughter.

  "It's all talk and no action, just a fake move. Everyone, take a look!" The man intentionally shook his enticing bronze-colored muscles, causing the young women to feel romantic and flirtatious, unable to help but let out a burst of high-pitched screams.

  The man was even more pleased, and with a flourish he picked up the gleaming blade beside him and brought it down on the pile of green bricks at his feet. With a "ka-chunk" sound, the thick and solid green bricks split open, what a fine and sharp treasure knife!

  The man grinned, and immediately turned the knife around and stabbed it into his own chest. "Ah!" The onlookers let out a chorus of shocked cries. But with a few crisp sounds, something astonishing happened. Except for a few white spots, the man's chest didn't even have a single bruise. Indeed, he had a body made of steel!

  "Good work!" The crowd exclaimed in unison, their faces pale with shock and admiration.

  "Too kind, too kind!" The man smiled complacently and rubbed his hands together. "This is just my worst skill. As long as the gentlemen are willing to give me some money for food, I'll let everyone see my ultimate skill that's been hidden in my sleeve!" No sooner had he finished speaking than a large handful of copper coins was thrown out from the crowd. The people who were eager to know what this guy had up his sleeve next!

  "Thank you, thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, now I will perform my ultimate skill, Silver Spear Piercing the Throat! Hmph!" The man took a deep breath, inserted a silver-glinting long spear into the ground, with the spearhead close to his own throat.

  "Silver spear to the throat?" No, that can't be right, the throat is the most vulnerable spot on a person! People couldn't help but take in a breath of cold air. The man took a deep breath, then slowly opened his arms and pressed his body against the silver spear. Indeed, it was a desperate move! He actually relied on his weak throat to make the spear shaft start twisting and deforming.

  "Good work!" Another wave of applause erupted.

  Just then, a sudden change occurred. A figure suddenly fell from the sky and heavily collided with the man's back. "Ouch!" Xiao Chen rubbed his body, gritted his teeth, and stood up. Hmm? Why are these people dressed so strangely? Whether male or female, they all wore wide robes with large sleeves, their hair tied high with a beautiful silk ribbon. But why did they look at him with such strange eyes?

  "Hello everyone!" Xiao Chen hastily greeted the crowd with a smile. Although he didn't know where this was, necessary etiquette still had to be observed.

  "Murder! Run!" someone shouted, and the crowd scattered in all directions. In an instant, not a single person was left behind, leaving Xiao Chen with only a cloud of dust.

  "Murder? Who was murdered?" Xiao Chen, who had just arrived in this world, still hadn't figured out what was going on. He slowly looked around and suddenly froze. A man with only his upper body exposed was standing motionless at a 45-degree angle. What was supporting his body was astonishing - a silver gun that had pierced through the man's neck, with the silver tip protruding from the back of his head.

  "What's going on, is it me?" Xiao Chen dared not think any further. Wait a minute, where am I? How did I get here? What am I doing here? It seems like there's some task to be completed? Ah yes, it seems like I need to find a few people and bring them back somewhere. Xiao Chen's brain was racing quickly, suddenly he felt a severe headache. Xiao Chen covered his head, groaning in pain.

  Xiao Chen's situation is not surprising at all. According to the laws of the underworld, when leaving the underworld and reincarnating, one must drink Meng Po's soup to erase memories of their past life. However, Xiao Chen's case was slightly different, so it was impossible to completely erase his memories. Cui Pan Guan could only make him drink Meng Po's cooling tea, sealing his memories deep within his mind. If he tried hard to remember who he was and where he came from, it would be like this. As for Xiao Chen barely remembering that he still had something to do, it was because of the predestined handcuff on his hand, or rather, the devil's handcuff. Finding those seven thousand-year-old souls who escaped from the underworld and bringing them back had become his inescapable fate.

  But if the time is not yet ripe and he forces himself to open up this part of his sealed memory, it will make him feel like his head is splitting and that death would be preferable.

  A loud "clang" sound, a thumb-thick iron chain was wrapped around Xiao Chen's body. Xiao Chen, who had a splitting headache, turned his head with difficulty and found that several sturdy men wearing black clothes and high hats had already surrounded him. Immediately afterwards, a slender young man in his thirties, dressed in a purple robe with floral patterns, wearing a small hat with a jumping wing, and having a pale face with a slight mustache, walked over.

  "How dare you, a scoundrel, commit murder in broad daylight? Do you still have any regard for the law? Take him away!" The young man shouted sternly.

  "Hey brother, listen to me, let me explain..." Xiao Chen panicked.

  "You scoundrel! How dare you be so disrespectful in front of the county magistrate, your lordship?" The bailiffs then pounced on Xiao Chen with a flurry of punches and kicks.

  "What else can be explained, so many people have seen it, and there's no room for quibbling." The county magistrate pointed to the surrounding crowd that had already dispersed far away, still fuming with anger. "In Jiayuan City, as long as I, Li Fang, am here, I will never let any villain escape justice. Come, take this murderer away!"

  "Yes, sir!" The bailiffs nodded in unison.

  "Good! Good!" The people in the distance let out a cheer.

  Our poor Xiao Chen had just arrived in this strange world, and then he had to experience the feeling of being a prisoner again. After being pushed into the big prison by several bailiffs, the thick prison door was closed with a "bang". The dungeon, dark and damp dungeon, occasionally there is a foul smell coming out of the dungeon. "Squeak, squeak!" A sound came from behind him.

  Wait, what's that? Xiao Chen turned his head to look, and good grief. It was actually several large-bodied, shiny rats, swaggering past in front of him with an air of triumph. Looking at these arrogant creatures, Xiao Chen, who was already feeling extremely down, became even more enraged! Damn it! A group of big rodents dared to show off in front of me? Watch as I slaughter you all!

  Xiao Chen, in a fit of rage, took off his shoes and threw them over. Unfortunately, however, he didn't even touch the tip of Huo Zhi's hair.

  At this time, in the county government of Jiayuan County, Li Fang, the county magistrate, was leisurely sitting at his desk sipping a steaming cup of tea. As the county magistrate of Jiayuan County, Li Fang was in his prime and full of energy. Although he was young, his talents were outstanding. Under his governance, the people of Jiayuan City lived peacefully and happily.

  "Wang Bantou, let's release that young man we just caught after tonight!" Li Fang put down his teacup and said to a robust middle-aged man standing beside him with a respectful attitude, wearing a dark green uniform.

  "Old master, why is this?" Wang Bantou asked in surprise.

  "Although the street performer died because of him, everyone present saw that the street performer was killed by being hit by that young man who fell from the sky. This young man was unintentional, and it's a bit too much to ask this young man to pay with his life." Li Fang smiled faintly.

  "But sir, if so, why did we still capture him?" Wang Half-head was even more puzzled.

  "Although it was unintentional, after all, someone died because of him. He must be taught a lesson to make him understand that in the future, he should not be too impulsive when dealing with others, otherwise, he will not only harm others but also himself." Li Fang said seriously.

  "But sir, why did that young man suddenly appear out of nowhere?"

  "If you want to know, why don't you ask him tomorrow when he's off work?" Li Fang smiled.

  "Old Master really knows how to joke." Wang Bantou also laughed.

  "I understand, sir." Wang Bandao looked at County Magistrate Li with a gaze full of admiration. "By the way, sir, what about those prisoners from Panshan Mountain in the dungeon?"

  "That gang of scoundrels has committed countless evils, murdering and arson, not a single crime they haven't done. Three days later, the county court will directly ask for their execution." As soon as he mentioned the bandits on Panshan Mountain, County Magistrate Li Fang's face showed a look of disgust.
