Chapter 256: Station Guardian
“Become stronger, stronger than anyone in this world, defeat all ticket holders in this world, and you will naturally be chosen by the Heavenly Dao of this world and become a Station Guardian.”
“Heavenly Dao? This world has a Heavenly Dao?”
Qin Si Feng: “Of course, the Heavenly Dao is also known as rules, and it has existed since the beginning of a world’s creation. The ones who sign contracts with the train are the Heavenly Dao. They grant the train entry permission, and the train gives them a chance to continue living. You people are the chess pieces generated during the trade between the Heavenly Dao and the train.”
Sang Chu looked at Qin Si Feng, seeing a half-smile on his indifferent face: “But this way, your identity can’t be hidden, and your idea of working in isolation will fall through.”
Sang Chu: “What are your conditions?”
Qin Si Feng smiled with satisfaction: “Smart. I can take you as a disciple and teach you cultivation.”
“What exactly do you want?”
Qin Si Feng: “What I want is very simple. I want Qin Si Mian dead. Unfortunately, you can’t do it. However, as long as you become a Station Guardian of this world, you will give me a chance to board, and I can go up and kill him myself.”
Sang Chu: “.” I don’t believe you!
“Okay, I will become your disciple!”
Sang Chu didn’t hesitate much and immediately knelt down on both knees: “Disciple Sang Chu, greets Master!”
“Get up.”
Qin Si Feng threw a white jade slip to Sang Chu: “This is the Clear Heart Art, it can heal your brain. However, just because I gave it to you doesn’t mean others can use it, understand?”
“I understand. Besides this, are there any other ways to heal the issue of mental Supernatural Ability Users’ power surging and exploding their brains?”
Qin Si Feng: “Abolishing the Supernatural Ability would suffice. A Supernatural Ability User’s ability is like a cultivator’s Spiritual Root. As long as the corresponding Spiritual Root is destroyed, the attribute that Spiritual Root possesses can be destroyed.”
“Thank you, Master.”
“You’re welcome. However, yours cannot be treated like this. If you lack even one thing, you won’t be able to become a Station Guardian.”
Hearing this, Sang Chu was slightly surprised, but she immediately understood. She was cornered.
Sang Chu: “Okay, I understand. I will practice.”
After speaking, she wanted to leave, but unexpectedly, at this moment, she found herself in a deep blue lake.
A giant python coiled around her, leaving her with only a foot of space to move.
“Master, what do you mean by this?”
Qin Si Feng: “Many ticket holders in this world are embarking on crazy journeys to otherworlds. They haven’t noticed you yet, but once those people in your Base escape, they will quickly catch wind of it. At that time, you will be like meat waiting to be carved up. From now on, you are not allowed to leave this place. Cultivate well here. Yun Xiang will relay messages and act on your behalf outside. What you need to do is grow as quickly as possible.”
“How fast is the fastest? When the Blood Moon sets?”
Sang Chu said casually, and Qin Si Feng burst into laughter: “Guess correctly?”
“Yes. Although I don’t know why you chose me, Qin Si Mian told me to go to your location, so he must have intended to choose me as well. However, my strength wasn’t high before, and you didn’t think highly of me, so you went to sleep right after returning with me. But why are you suddenly taking me as a disciple now?”
Sang Chu paused for a moment. Seeing that he didn’t refute, she continued: “Because the Blood Moon is about to set, you have no choice. And after Qin Si Mian’s assessment, among all the ticket holders in the Apocalypse, only I should possess the traits of a Station Guardian. Moreover, I have family here, so compared to others, I have a greater sense of belonging to the Apocalypse.”
Qin Si Feng: “Well said. Continue.”
Sang Chu: “You once told me that the Blood Moon represents purification, but you also said that those with high strength would remain. At the time, I felt something was wrong. High strength doesn’t guarantee survival. People in the Apocalypse need too many things; starvation can kill them.
But at the time, because Supernatural Ability Users could accelerate growth of plants themselves, I didn’t notice any problems. It wasn’t until recently, when I discovered that the power of the Blood Moon makes people strange and can kill them, that I realized that the so-called purification is true purification, not even sparing a single one.”
‘Clap clap clap—’ Qin Si Feng applauded with a smile: “Clever. Then tell me, why did Qin Si Mian choose you?”
“Because I am not only a mental Supernatural Ability User, but also a cultivator with five Spiritual Roots.”
Qin Si Feng: “No wonder my brother said you were good. I didn’t expect you to know all this.”
Tu You lost his memory, and it was his brother who personally did it, so there shouldn’t be any problem. Then there is only one possibility: everything Sang Chu said is her own guess!
Even though he had a poker face, Sang Chu knew he looked very happy. Was it just because she guessed correctly?
Qin Si Feng: “Mental Supernatural Ability Users are a fixed condition. Regardless of the world, only those with extremely strong mental power have the potential to become ticket holders, just like mental Supernatural Ability Users in the Apocalypse, or alchemists in the Cultivation World.”
Sang Chu nodded: “Because the combat power of these people is generally very weak, people like me who are both mental Supernatural Ability Users and cultivators with five Spiritual Roots become your choice. However, if I cannot pass your assessment, I will die like others.”
Qin Si Feng: “That’s what you said, but you have no choice.”
“I know. I just find it strange. If you need Station Guardians, why not relax the conditions?”
Qin Si Feng: “I just praised you for being smart, and now you’re being foolish. Your brother, Lin Mu Xue, Lu Min Feng, Xiao Yi Fei, they all practiced the mental cultivation manual like you. Who can see the train?”
Sang Chu was stunned. She really hadn’t thought about this. Among those who cultivated together, it seemed only she could see the train!
Qin Si Feng: “The higher a person’s mental power, the better their dynamic vision, to the point where they can see things others cannot. If you don’t believe me, you can go back and try Pei Zhao. Although your current mental power level cannot be detected by you, she should be able to see the shadow of the train. It is precisely because she can see it that she has a strong sense of fear and is more susceptible to being possessed by unclean things.”
Sang Chu: “So, when Lin Shao Qing and the others said Pei Zhao was strange, it was because there was something else inside her?”
“I didn’t say that. However, you should be wary of all mental Supernatural Ability Users. Their brains are easily influenced. Like Lin Mu Xue, she had a psychological suggestion planted in her, which caused her personality to change drastically. If she hadn’t held onto her true self, you would have been killed by her by now.”
After listening to Qin Si Feng, a thought flashed through Sang Chu’s mind, but it was too fast, and she couldn’t quite grasp it.
Qin Si Feng: “Don’t think about it. Cultivate well. When your power can be controlled, open the City Gate and attract those ticket holders. As long as they come, I will help you capture them. Now, sit down and meditate.”
