Gods Vanish on a Cloudy Day

Chapter 3 Space Transmission

Chapter 2015.6.25 Cloudy

That day, many things happened.

For example, Shao Shuangyue finally cleared the first playthrough of Undying Tribulation after two days of crazy gaming, doing nothing but sleeping in between.

For example, Shao Qiming's cultivation bore fruit, and he broke through to Awakening Tier 1, unlocking Spiritual Sight.

And for example, Shao Nantian announced that in three days, he would take the younger generation on vacation to the South Sea beach – he himself was going there to discuss business, so he wouldn't be an eyesore as an elder, affecting the young people's mood for fun, only hoping that Shao Qiming and Su Zhou could take care of his little sister, Shao Shuangyue.

Then Shao Shuangyue, feeling looked down upon, angrily pounded his shoulders with her small fists for a long time.

Of course, today was also the day the Zheng Nation officially promised Su Zhou's 'inheritance' would arrive.

"It's strange, Shuangyue didn't encounter the National Preceptor in this playthrough, not even when she reached the end and defeated the Demon Emperor."

Morning, 11 a.m., the Su residence.

Back in his own home, Su Zhou was looking at the forums on his phone, his brow furrowed: "On the forum, many people have guessed the existence of the National Preceptor through various item information and indirect descriptions, but for some reason, most people only challenged the Demon Emperor in the end."

"Only a small number of people encountered the National Preceptor, and the timing of the encounter was different. One was like me, encountering the National Preceptor in Mount Taibai, and the other was after the Demon Emperor, challenging the National Preceptor who had also advanced to the Xiantian (Innate) stage… Is it an easter egg?"

But not entirely. Su Zhou watched the videos on the internet of those who encountered the National Preceptor and found that the former possibility was fine, but in the latter, the National Preceptor who advanced to the Xiantian stage was terrifyingly strong. If it weren't for the game mechanism's 'Lightning Reversal' ruling on 'lightning strikes,' which was almost like a cheat, the Xiantian National Preceptor would be nearly impossible to defeat - the whole screen was washed with cyan-blue lightning, how could anyone even fight?

"Now, there are speculations on various player forums that several conditions need to be met to encounter the National Preceptor, the most important of which is that not a single drop of blood can be lost during the three-round battle against the Demon General at Mount Taibai before the Divine Blade is forged."

"And the second condition is that you can't die even once before encountering the Demon Emperor… Forget it, I won't think about it for now."

Temporarily putting aside this doubt, at this moment, Su Zhou was in his own home, waiting for the arrival of the inheritance.

It was already 11:20 a.m., but the inheritance promised by the officials hadn't arrived yet.

According to the notice given during the last exchange, the inheritance that the Zheng Nation officials promised to give Su Zhou would be delivered at 11:25 a.m. on the 25th, but now that only 5 minutes remained until the final deadline, Su Zhou, who had secretly avoided the many reporters and returned home, still hadn't sensed any official Transcendent approaching.

"Let's wait, the officials shouldn't be late in this regard."

Putting down his phone, Su Zhou himself was calm: "I think that in this regard, the officials might shock me with an unexpected method - such as drone delivery, rocket express, or something."

His mentality was very good, and he was even looking forward to it.

Looking forward to exactly what method the Zheng Nation officials would use to deliver the secret manual to his hands.

Five minutes later, Su Zhou looked at his watch again: 11:25 a.m.

The time had arrived.

And at this very moment, a strange sense of distortion appeared in the living room of the Su residence - in the next instant, the distortion ended, and a steel-plate-like square electronic terminal appeared abruptly in the center of the living room.

Following the sense of distortion that suddenly appeared and disappeared, Su Zhou quickly discovered this electronic terminal, which was about the size of a laptop screen.

- There was no trace of anyone having been there, nor any remaining aura trails, only a little bit of colorless aura residue that was constantly dissipating.

"Is it spatial teleportation? Or Spiritual Realm transportation? Or a special bloodline ability of a certain Awakened?"

In the first instance, he excitedly stepped forward, reached out his hand, and took the initiative to sense the remaining distorted aura path, his tone filled with pure curiosity: "Unable to trace the source of the aura… As expected, I really didn't expect that the technological strength and Transcendent power of the Zheng Nation would be so strong!"

"No matter what method it is, they can actually possess practical spatial teleportation capabilities at the Transcendent stage!"

The electronic terminal with the built-in Transcendent inheritance that suddenly appeared in the Su residence was undoubtedly delivered in a way that ordinary people could not explain.

Even Su Zhou could only determine that it did appear out of thin air, rather than being 'Spiritual Realm transportation,' a type of Taoist magic that controls spiritual bodies to quickly move things.

In this special place, Transcendent methods are truly much more convenient than science.

Picking it up and opening it, he could see that it was a specially designed e-reader, containing various dynamic picture explanations, PPT-like concept summaries, detailed models explaining the circulation of spiritual energy in the cultivation method, structural analyses of the shaping of various spiritual organs, and the most fundamental dictionary of commonly used and rarely used runes.

After roughly browsing it for a moment, Su Zhou could perceive the extremely high level of technology contained in this electronic terminal. It could even project a holographic 3D projection above its screen, comprehensively analyzing and deconstructing various Transcendent knowledge.

But compared to this book, Su Zhou was more interested in the method of delivering this electronic terminal.

"The method of transference, spatial teleportation… Is this a display of power?"

The rising curiosity slowly settled, and at this moment, Su Zhou, holding the electronic terminal and sitting on his sofa, frowned somewhat seriously: "Or is it using this method to secretly intimidate me? Although I guess I might be overthinking it, but instead of using the normal method of visiting in person, they proactively showed me the power of spatial teleportation… It does feel a bit like showing off."

Spatial abilities are strategic-level abilities. If one could teleport some dangerous substances, such as super viruses, miniature nuclear bombs, high-concentration poisonous gas, etc., to the enemy's core area, it could definitely have a strategic-level destructive effect.

Not to mention, wouldn't teleporting a large amount of graphite dust into the enemy's electronic system control center directly and physically paralyze their brain? Su Zhou was just an eighteen-year-old student and couldn't even imagine how many tactical and strategic ideas spatial teleportation could achieve.

But no matter what, to use this kind of power just to deliver a single inheritance… It's a bit of an overkill, isn't it?

"Perhaps there is some intention of that." At this time, Yala leaned out from the top of Su Zhou's head, biting Su Zhou's hair, and looked at the e-book in his hand, the snake spirit's tone was somewhat subtle: "But I don't think it's to the point of intimidation."

"This is more like a temptation - come on, join us, as long as you join us, this power can also be used by you. Otherwise, why would they have revealed the intention to appoint you as a professor in the past few days?"

"The thoughts of adults are really complicated, haven't I already agreed?"

Su Zhou clicked his tongue, evaluating like this, and then he said: "Speaking of which, Yala, what do you think is the idea behind them asking me to be a professor? Could it be that they saw that I'm cultivating other cultivation methods?"

"You are also a grown-up adult now." The snake spirit shook its head and tail, and said softly: "As for cultivation methods, that's for sure. How could humans cultivate to the Transcendent stage without cultivation methods? However, the Zheng Nation might think that you inherited some innate cultivation methods from your bloodline, which is not a rare thing."

"Forget it, let's take a look at the cultivation method first."

After being surprised by the spatial power shown by the Zheng Nation for a moment, Su Zhou stopped being distracted and focused on reading the cultivation method in the electronic book, which was called the 'most suitable Wind and Lightning system for him' by the Zheng Nation officials.
