Chapter 377: Chapter 376: My Superpower is Invincible
“Master Bai, here is the Heart-Stirring Inheritance you requested… where did you go?”
Wu Zhi was confused, Bai Hongtu had asked him for the Heart-Stirring Inheritance, and in the blink of an eye, he had disappeared.
Bai Hongtu was utterly baffled to find himself summoned here.
“I help you decode the teleportation array, and this is how you repay me.”
In Lingxi World, Jiang Li asked Bai Hongtu to decipher the teleportation array. Bai Hongtu quickly understood the principle of the array and taught it to Jiang Li, empowering him to freely select who to teleport.
This was significantly more effective than the blind-box teleportation arrays of Lingxi World.
Bai Hongtu just didn’t expect that Jiang Li would use the teleportation array on him right after learning it.
“Is this a new world?” Bai Hongtu quickly shifted his attention to the Wei Gu World.
“It seems pretty ordinary. The people here are generally weak and show no signs of having practiced any cultivation,” Bai Hongtu had thought he would find something novel here.
“This world is called Wei Gu World, where a very small proportion of people possess abilities known as superpowers.”
“What are these superpowers?” Bai Hongtu asked, intrigued.
“Extraordinary abilities.”
Bai Hongtu remembered Jiang Li’s explanation of what it took to reach the Mahayana Realm— the stage that comes after the Transcendance Tribulation Stage.
“Why don’t you go back once more?” Jiang Li suggests.
“Why?”
“I haven’t compared the speed of time flow between this world and Jiuzhou.”
“Are you kidding me?”
Peng Lianghai has been somewhat lost recently.
Three months ago, he accidentally discovered he had a superpower. He has gradually figured out his capability, enhancing his body strength.
Making his strength more powerful, his speed more agile, he covertly tested himself and found that his physical fitness was on par with national athletes. If it weren’t for the upcoming college entrance examination in three months, he would have opted to become a sports student.
With the college entrance examination imminent, he focused on studying, planning to explore his capability further after the test.
Being an impatient youth, he couldn’t resist occasionally using his power in secret.
However, what Peng Lianghai didn’t expect was that last night a woman claimed to have been watching him for two months and invited him to join an organization with a lucrative salary.
Suspicious of the woman’s strange behavior, Peng Lianghai didn’t completely trust Shao Junyi and used the college entrance examination as the excuse to decline her offer.
With just several days left for the college entrance examination, Shao Junyi’s disruption left Peng Lianghai unable to focus on his exam preparation.
“So annoying.” Peng Lianghai rubbed his temples in agitation.
Too many things were crowding Peng Lianghai’s mind, leaving him momentarily confused. He didn’t want to worry his parents, so he didn’t tell them about his superpower.
“Students, today we have two new classmates joining our class. Let’s have them introduce themselves.”
The students in the classroom thought they had misheard. With the college entrance examination just days away, how could there be new students?
“Hello, everyone. My name is Bai Hongtu, I’m eighteen years old, and I’m interested in metaphysical studies.”
“Hello, everyone. My name is Jiang Li, I’m eighteen years old, and I like to maintain world peace.”
Two clean-dressed youths with innocent gazes stood at the podium, especially the one named Bai Hongtu, who was almost excessively handsome.
Jiang Li was also quite handsome, but compared to Bai Hongtu, he seemed rather ordinary and appeared overshadowed.
Peng Lianghai felt that the two seemed to be deliberately emphasizing their age. How strange.
“It must be a misunderstanding, right?”
The arrival of new students did not attract too much attention. With the college entrance examination just a few days away and everyone about to set out on their own paths, who had the mind to interact with these two?
Even if Bai Hongtu was attractive enough to make many girls’ hearts flutter.
Peng Lianghai had no intention of paying attention to these two either.
However, issues always find their way in.
“Hello, are you Peng Lianghai?” During the break, the youth named Jiang Li dragged over a chair and started a conversation with Peng Lianghai.
Jiang Li noticed that Peng Lianghai was perpetually in a strengthened state. From the contraction of his muscles, it was evident that his physical strength was at the peak of the Qi Cultivation Stage.
Peng Lianghai regarded the two strangers with uncertainty.
“You may have seen us for the first time, but I met you last night… and the woman named Shao Junyi.” Jiang Li revealed a mysterious smile.
“Who are you guys!” Peng Lianghai jumped up, knocking over the stool. The loud sound drew the attention of the other students.
“Calm down, we’re not bad people.” Jiang Li lightly placed his hand on Peng Lianghai’s shoulder, signaling him to calm down.
Peng Lianghai, who had always been confident in his strength, found Jiang Li’s grip surprisingly powerful, making it impossible for him to resist.
“Think about it, if we were bad people, we wouldn’t be talking to you here in the classroom.”
“What is your superpower?”
This question stumped Jiang Li, who after a moment’s thought replied, “My superpower is invincibility.”
Bai Hongtu rolled his eyes at Jiang Li; he had never seen such a shameless person.
Bai Hongtu stated, “My superpower is cultivation. Eventually, it allows me to become an immortal like the ones in mythological tales.”
The odd superpowers intrigued Peng Lianghai, and his intuition told him that their powers were stronger than his.
“What do you want from me?” Despite knowing their superpowers, Peng Lianghai still could not completely trust them.
“We are two lonely souls with no one to rely on. We want to join an organization. But we feel that we are too weak and are susceptible to being bullied within the organization.”
“Coincidentally yesterday, we saw you were invited to join an organization, so we thought of joining through you. Plus, it would be nice since we are all from the same batch, we can take care of each other.”
Bai Hongtu spoke convincingly and sincerely.
“Are you guys really weak?”
Bai Hongtu heaved a sigh, “Of course, who dares to call themselves the strongest? It’s true that our superpowers make us stronger than average people, but there are always those who are stronger.”
“Two fists are no match for four. No matter how powerful one is, they can’t resist the whole world.”
“For example, his superpower is invincibility but he was once poisoned and almost killed by a large bird, and was nearly beaten to death by two people.”
Jiang Li agreed and nodded along. He was poisoned at the Golden Core Stage, killed by a Golden Winged Great Peng Bird at the Nascent Soul Stage, and only a step away from death when he tried to stop two people engaged in a battle during the peak of the Body Integration Realm.
“I see.” Peng Lianghai, who had always exclusively lived on campus and had little contact with society, naively believed Bai Hongtu’s words.
“Therefore, joining a reliable organization is vital to protect oneself. You also want to join that unnamed government department, don’t you?”
Peng Lianghai nodded gently as he indeed had this intention.
Originally, Jiang Li planned to directly approach the Super Power User Management Bureau and clarify everything, but Bai Hongtu insisted on them proceeding step by step.
When Jiang Li asked him why, Bai Hongtu replied unabashedly, “I’m just too idle.”
Since the current world was not on the brink of destruction, Jiang Li wasn’t in a rush and indulged Bai Hongtu’s tomfoolery.
Jiang Li, too, was very idle.
