"Oh, so many letters and gifts!"

  The Qingteng Cup newcomer division final has ended, and in just a few short days, I have received countless letters, gifts, and invitations.

  Xiao Bing saw this and couldn't help but laugh, casually opening a book that had been brought along.

  In this era, who still gives books as gifts?

  Xiao Bing came over and took a look, but laughed and said: "Wow, it's actually a swordsmanship secret manual. The person who sent this to you is really thoughtful!"

  Fang Xinyin was stunned, took it and flipped through it, only to find that it was a cover made of rice paper, with the words "Qishi Jianfa Benlu" written on it in bold brushstrokes.

  There was actually another letter inside.

  "It is written on white rice paper, with a rounded script: 'Having seen your sword, I have already grasped the essence, which aligns with the principles of our family's swordsmanship. Alas, my family has declined and no descendants remain to learn the sword. I gift you a copy of the Qi family's sword manual, comprising eighteen volumes. I hope you can spare time to read it once, twice, thrice, and it will surely benefit your studies.'"

  Fang Xin was silent, and between this one read, re-read, and third read, he felt a sense of desolation that no one asked about his family's learning.

  He didn't read it first, but just put on his clothes, brought this book, and got on Xiao Bing's car. Before 9:00 in the morning, he had to rush to an institute of the Xiao family, where there was a perfect nutrient warehouse, as well as a spatial energy meter, and other personnel.

  "So many worshippers, what do you think?" asked Xiao Bing as they got on the bus and it started moving.

  "There's nothing, I originally liked it, just sincerely enjoy it, but only if it's not exclusive."

  "What does it mean by 'not specialized'?" Xiao Bing also wanted to understand Fang Xin's current thoughts.

  "Actually, everyone is energetic and tireless, why? It's just for some benefits, for these titles. For a moment of power and flavor, if people see through it, this life will also be tasteless, so there are actions that are no different from ordinary people." Fang Xin said to her.

  Xiao Bing thought for a moment and nodded: "Indeed it is."

  "The difference between a saint and an ordinary person is that the latter has no choice. Apart from wealth, power, and fame, what else can they grasp? They are not unaware that these things are fleeting. However, they have no choice but to forget about them, becoming increasingly obsessed with each passing day, accumulating over time, turning into habits, and eventually becoming addictive."

  "While the saint actually has more choices, with great abilities, these things are readily available, no need to pursue, and not bound by life and death and society, so life is not obscured. Ice leaf wine, travel songs. Women's beauty and delicious food are often mixed, dancing can be danced until dawn, love can be loved to the extreme, experiencing life without distractions, what I say, what I do, what I love, what I mourn, what I laugh at, all without pretension. This is the state of life I pursue."

  "Being extremely passionate and romantic is also being extremely holy!" Xiao Bing listened. After a moment of silence, she gradually realized that Fang Xin was an idealist.

  "Actually, it's like this, but if you don't resolve life and death, you can't attain sainthood. If you don't resolve your restraints, you can't attain true emotions. This is actually the same thing. Originally, this topic isn't very good, but I think I'll have to go to another dimension to experience a new life again, that's what I'm thinking, I don't want to get lost."

  Xiao Bing smiled and said, "You don't need to explain, I understand. In this world, there are countless good things, and with more choices comes more variables. However, I love you, so I hope you can love me too, and that it will last forever. That's all, as for whether it can be achieved or not, that's another matter altogether. I'll do my best and use all my strength to seek a life without regrets."

  Fang Xinzhi looked at Xiao Bing, his heart surging with emotion. She was truly wise, and he felt fortunate to have met her. However, after taking a deep breath, he smiled and said: "In short, just eat when you want to eat, sleep when you want to sleep, and play when you want to play. This is the ultimate truth, the ultimate nature, and the ultimate sanctity!"

  Xiao Bing couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Although what you said isn't wrong, why does it sound like a pig is talking?"

  After chatting for a while, Fang Xin took out that book and read it carefully.

  He read it once in ten minutes, then spent another ten minutes reading it again. After that, he quickly finished five more readings, averaging about five minutes per reading. Fang Xin closed his eyes for a while before opening them again.

  "What's wrong, did you remember something?"

  "Remember, one-third of it I already know, one-third can be learned, and one-third is not worth learning." Fang Xin said, handing the book to Xiao Bing. Xiao Bing smiled, took it, and after a moment, a strange expression appeared on his face.

  "It's really good stuff, how did someone give it to you like this?"

  "Maybe it's fate, this time I'm back, I'll go take a look at that person," said Fang Xin.

  The car seemed to have arrived at a forest, entering the gate of Guang Brain Monitoring, which was an ordinary-looking five-story building. At this time, Xiao Bing took out two cards and put them on himself and Fang Xin's bodies.

  He walked up to the gate and it automatically opened. Fang Xin went in but still hadn't seen any surveillance personnel.

  Only when I got inside did I realize that this was a large hall, with an area of over 100 square meters, and there were waiters at the bar.

  "It's free here, would you like a cup?" Xiao Bing introduced and said.

  A little further away, there were all sorts of toys, some people drinking and playing, and a girl who didn't need to personally pick things up, they would float up and fall into her hands.

  Following Fang Xin's line of sight, Xiao Bing looked over and smiled: "She is Xi Yunyun, a recruit from my family. To be honest, despite the exaggeration, there's nothing special about her. In terms of practicality, she can't compare to your fourth-stage sword technique."

  "Oh, is that so?"

  "Of course, spiritual power can control objects, but in reality, she can do very little now, although there is potential for development. I hope she can find a way to develop her spiritual power and upgrade on the corresponding plane, unfortunately, my family doesn't have the power or opportunity yet." Xiao Bing said with some regret: "Of course, magic can also be used on her path, but European magic schools are not open to Huaxia, even if you go to learn, you won't learn the real content." Technical blockades are everywhere, all organizations want to keep their advantageous technology and power secret. As for this girl, she should be similar to a magician, Fang Xin thought, he was surprised and then understood Xiao Bing's skepticism. In fact, these heterodox powers are far inferior to swordsmanship, the most crucial thing is that they can't be used persistently.

  The most crucial point is that in today's research on scientific and technological fields, this special ability has been completely ignored.

  "So what is our main purpose for interdimensional travel? To copy knowledge? To learn skills?"

  "This is currently the most important part, we can record swordsmanship, culture, magic, Taoism, some planes, now have developed quite mature powers, these powers and systems are different from our world's system, but equally effective, if you learn and record them, you will gain considerable benefits, the empire is not stingy with rewards, even titles are not impossible things, this has a contribution degree."

  "Are these powers and skills useful in our world as well?" Fang Xin was quite perplexed, feeling that he had grasped some sort of core content.

  "Some can be used directly, while others cannot," Xiao Bing replied calmly.

  "What about poetry, history, and research materials?"

  "Of course, it's the same, and very welcome to the empire. It's said that someone had memorized over a thousand poems and sent them back to the empire, which specially rewarded him and stored them in the cultural center, selecting and releasing them at different times to promote the entire cultural connotation and dissemination of the empire." These words had already revealed a lot of information, Fang Xin thought, especially the sentence "some can be used directly, some cannot be used directly", Yu Ruyi herself was also moved, apparently there were great mysteries inside.

  Just then, a girl named Xi Yunyun walked over, looking at Fang Xin with an astonished expression: "Young lady, who is this?"

  "Fang Xin, 4th rank swordsmen." Fang Xin said first, introducing himself.

  Xiyunyun jumped in fright, extending his right hand and saying: "You've actually reached the rank of 4th stage sword hand? Nice to meet you, I'm Xiyunyun, a 2nd stage spiritual power user."

  "Hello, you're also a member of the expedition team, right?" Fang Xin stretched out his hand and shook hands with the girl.

  "No, I'm just a reserve, I have to wait until I enter the third stage before I can travel, so every day I exercise my spiritual power, it's so boring." The girl was somewhat depressed and shrugged her shoulders, saying: "I really envy you guys for being able to bring back something every time, accumulating points, making contributions, and increasing your strength."

  "Yunyun is very diligent, usually practicing, and going up three stages is no problem. Plane travel is now very dangerous, so at least we must be third-stage, we must be responsible for the lives of our team members." Xiao Bing said, nodding to Fang Xin, indicating that they could move forward.

  Fang Xiang nodded at her and followed up, asking: "How much stuff did you bring back?"

  Xiao Bing said, "Since no tools can be brought along, everything relies on the soul's memory. Therefore, there isn't much that can be brought back. This is currently the biggest problem with inter-planar travel. In the future, you can choose some content to memorize and bring back. If it's something new and fresh in any aspect, it can be exchanged for a certain amount of points and resources within the family and empire. Of course, the rarer and more valuable the thing is, the more precious it becomes."

  Xiao Bing explained further, "Now that the empire's material wealth has become extremely rich, pure production has already entered the mechanized domain. In order to develop civilization, stimulate the economy, and have everyone participate, vigorously developing knowledge, culture, spiritual, and skill industries is necessary. Therefore, there is great interest in these cultural by-products, new power models, historical records, and history. It has already become the largest production, circulation, and consumption department. However, power skills are of course the top priority."

  Fang Xing nodded, indicating he understood.
