Extra's Strategy: Cultivate Protagonists, Become Invincible-Chapter 175: The Younger Generation Has No Sense Of Respect These Days

All the discussion about the Displacement Technique had made Han Xuhan come to a conclusion about an issue he had been pondering for quite a while.

Why didn’t Qian Yun just come out through the portal near Pine Town and look for resources from smaller sects? He was from a family of cultivators as well, he definitely had the ability to gather resources from the world outside.

So he had voiced his curiosity in a straightforward manner and got a straightforward answer.

"Our group, the explorers possessed by Zhao Weiqing, returned to the Holy Land after failing to chase you down. But soon after that, an expert invaded this place, which I’ve already told you before.

"That old expert took Zhao Weiqing and his main vessel away, and he must have blocked the portal leading outside while leaving. After we recovered from the spiritual shock of the possession, we discovered that the portal wasn’t working anymore."

If Han Xuhan wasn’t certain that it was Qian Yun he was communicating with, he might not have believed the explanation. But the details all added up.

It certainly answered the question why these guys would give in to Xuan Zi’s outrageous demands. They had no choice, to begin with.

The Holy Land’s environment wasn’t suitable to grow any kind of food or cultivation resources. Unless they could neutralize the poisonous fog there, Qian Yun and his group would have to rely solely on Xuan Zi’s generosity.

If he was in Qian Yun’s shoes, Han Xuhan would have never admitted such a weakness. Qian Yun had made a really bad move by being so honest, especially considering who he was dealing with.

Now, sitting in his backyard, Han Xuhan watched the circle of laws filling up with his qi, waiting for Qian Yun’s radar to locate the signal from the other side.

Half an hour later, he was almost about to give up due to his Qi reserves hitting zero, but he finally felt something. It was an indescribably uncanny feeling, almost as if an imaginary string in his mind suddenly connected with another, far stronger string that had appeared there out of nowhere.

The pile of goods in front of him slowly levitated off the ground for a second, wrapped up fully in a red glow as if gravity had been canceled. Then Han Xuhan suddenly found himself in the familiar disembodied state, still staring at the resources.

Except he was now inside the white, semi-transparent globe in the artificial realm of laws; the place Qian Yun had labeled as his spawn point.

"Good, it worked," Qian Yun’s voice drifted over from somewhere at the other end of the tunnel. The bag of goods in front of Han Xuhan sped away into the tunnel while he silently scrutinized the entire process. A few seconds later, he spoke again in a relieved tone.

"The first displacement is complete. Now, the reactionary displacement will begin by principle.

"Focus on the letters you used in the circle of laws outside. Try to visualize them as clearly as possible. Project the mental image on the walls of the globe you’re in. Don’t stop visualizing even if something surprising happens."

Full of doubt, Han Xuhan did as he was told. It was a surprisingly easy feat, probably because the feeling of occupying his physical body wasn’t as prominent, leading to a detached, focused, and uninterrupted mental exercise.

Was this another reason why this artificial realm of laws was created? To practice laws with better mental discipline?

In front of his expectant gaze, a small circle of familiar letters appeared on the wall, bit by bit, as he struggled to keep the entire image in his mind intact.

The visualized circle, once completely created, settled on the wall like a painting, and a wave of blue light pulsed out from it, illuminating the entire globe.

Suddenly, a big, tightly wrapped sack drifted out of the mouth of the tunnel, speeding toward the circle of laws on the wall as if it was being magnetically pulled in from Qian Yun’s spawn point.

Despite being aware of his disembodied state, Han Xuhan ducked out of the way due to reflex. The sack slowed down just before smacking into the formation on the wall.

"There, the blueprint you want is in that sack. Now stop the visualization of the circle of laws the moment I count down to zero.

"Remember, you have to make it instantaneous. You can’t just stop visualizing one part of the circle while keeping focus on the other part. Stop thinking about the entire thing, at once. Three, two, one... zero!"

Han Xuhan had no problem following this advice. Needless to say, the complex formation did not manage to stay a second longer amidst his chaotic thoughts.

The mental sensation of a string being cut rang throughout his consciousness and he suddenly felt the existence of his physical body properly once again. He had returned to the real world.

Opening his eyes, he found himself sitting in his backyard, and the circle of laws on the ground now displayed that sack in its center, with a dying blue glow flickering around it.

The Displacement Technique had worked!

Excited, Han Xuhan jumped up and threw his fists up in the air in celebration.

Success at the first attempt! Hell Yeah!

"I’m glad to see it went so smoothly. Good job, disciple Xuhan," sect master Xuan Zi said from behind, getting up from his chair.

"Thank you for giving me the opportunity, sect master!" Han Xuhan said with a beaming smile on his face.

"I’ll leave the rest to you! The blueprint you wanted is in this sack. The task inside was very taxing, and my head feels rather wobbly right now. I have to retire for the evening."

"Oh, sure. You deserve it, my good disciple," Xuan Zi said without much thought as he came closer to inspect the sack on the ground.

"Wait a minute...are these chamber pots inside? Gah- that stinks-"

Turning around, sect master Xuan Zi tried to order Han Xuhan to look for the blueprints inside the large pile of used chamber pots, only to realize that his good disciple had disappeared out of his sight!

All the doors and windows of his hut were closed, and a sign saying ’Recuperating, Do not Disturb’ hung on the doorknob.

"Cheeky brats... Is this how you show dissatisfaction with the deal? Hmph!"
