Otherworldly Desert Dust

"Everyone has their own aspirations, and their life and death have nothing to do with me. If they truly achieve longevity in the future, it's not as if they will share their lifespan with me. If they fall into suffering, I will try not to gloat…" Wu Hen said calmly.

The Changsheng Handmaid frowned. She initially thought that she had encountered a resolute individual of profound cultivation, a person of great talents, but instead, she found a narrow-minded small-town mentality. His words showed no concern for the world, only a desire to live well himself.

She thought she would have to debate with him, but the Changsheng Handmaid found herself at a loss for words.

"In the Longevity Sect, we have always sent six disciples and one master out to different worlds to spread the idea of longevity. When the idea of longevity takes root in people's hearts, I, as an emissary, come to guide them. After all, our Longevity Sect needs to filter and select; not just anyone can join us." The Changsheng Handmaid said.

"You're right, your selection mechanism is perfect. It respects everyone's wishes while offering the hope of longevity to all. If I weren't already bound to the Human Holy Realm's ship, I would be tempted to visit your Longevity Sect. Alas, what a pity." Wu Hen said.

The Changsheng Handmaid's frown deepened.

Despite what Wu Hen said, she still sensed an underlying sarcastic tone!

"I'm merely responsible for guidance, but you hurt our sect's Dao Master. It can't be brushed aside with a few words; take care of yourself!" The Changsheng Handmaid said.

"Take care, no need to see you off!"

...

Nuwa God End, thin realm.

A bridge of space, ethereal like a rainbow, appeared, connecting to the Five-colored Stream.

The idea of longevity from the Longevity Sect had already taken deep root in some people's souls.

So as soon as the Eternal Life Bridge was built, they couldn't wait to set foot on it, heads held high, stepping towards their new lives.

No one could see what lay at the other end of the Eternal Life Bridge.

No one who crossed it ever looked back.

If this ephemeral bridge was the other side of humanity they envisioned, accompanied by countless vibrant Longevity Flowers and Longevity Vines, then so be it.

For now, everything was still unknown.

Many people's thoughts wavered constantly, afraid of missing this rare opportunity. After all, the Longevity Sect mentioned that by staying temporarily in Infinite Red Port, they selected citizens of Nuwa God End. Even if these individuals later came into contact with the Longevity Sect again, they might not be accepted.

"Brother Hen, tell me the truth: is this Longevity Sect truly a great Otherworldly Dust sect, or a trap targeting humans?" Wang Rui asked. Enjoy more content from My Virtual Library Empire

Having heard of Wu Hen's awakening, Wang Rui hurriedly returned from his expedition, grasping Wu Hen's leg with tears and snot.

Seeing a familiar face, Wu Hen felt much better.

"Seeing that Longevity Taoist, I think it's fake, but seeing this Changsheng Handmaid, her demeanor and certain fairy-like charm make me uncertain." Wu Hen said bluntly.

"What? So it's fifty-fifty then; I thought you had already seen through their charade as predators, that's why you attacked them." Wang Rui said.

"My dear brother, matters of Otherworldly Dust are unclear. Opportunities come with dangers; often, there's a gamble. If you bet right, you might follow the path of cultivation and longevity. Bet wrong, and you'll regret it deeply under the Human Emperor Banner." Wu Hen said.

He couldn't judge.

Wu Hen knew very little about the Longevity Sect.

As for whether there's a lineage similar to the Sword Immortal behind them, Wu Hen didn't know.

He opposed the Longevity Sect mainly because of their actions a few days ago, which made him very unhappy. Unhappy, so he wiped them out, no problem at all.

"I'm curious. Actually, deep inside their camp, following their mental method, I do feel my spirit improved. As for longevity, I can't tell yet." Wang Rui said.

"Since you're already practicing, why not go with them?" Wu Hen asked with a smile.

"Are you kidding? Just because I like to sneak a bite of takeout, taste some junk food, doesn't mean I would betray my mom and run away from home!" Wang Rui said seriously.

"Wise! The wisest among all humanity!" Wu Hen gave a thumbs-up.

"How about I go undercover and find out more?" Wang Rui whispered.

Brother, would you really go?

But Wu Hen still shook his head, not recommending Wang Rui to do so.

The technique of longevity was likely mastered by the lineage of Immortals. There weren't many confirmed in Otherworldly Dust, and it was improbable that this Infinite Red Port had one.

Most importantly, even Immortals valued the technique of longevity highly. They wouldn't easily bestow it upon mortals. In Nuwa God End, citizens, not even considered mortals, were low-class people with no real bodies.

With such inconsistencies, Wu Hen wouldn't easily give everything, especially his precious soul.

Who knew if the other end of the Eternal Life Bridge wasn't a massive soul-extracting furnace, where millions could produce a Yuan You as brilliant as the sun and moon?

"Better avoid it. At worst, we'd be enslaved. At worst, it'd be a slaughterhouse. The probability of truly obtaining the technique of longevity was very low." Wu Hen shook his head, making what he thought was the most realistic judgment.

"Alright, listening to you won't go wrong." Wang Rui nodded, then nudged Wu Hen's arm, speaking softly, "I found some interesting places in Infinite Red Port; I'll take you there for some fun later."

"It's been years; you've got your connections?" Wu Hen said.

"Of course! Wherever I am, I get along. In this tiny Otherworldly Dust, you still need to understand human relationships. Someone like me, with both emotional intelligence and IQ maxed out, can even mingle well with Little Ghost Yama Gate in a hellish place. How can anyone not call me Brother Wang?" Wang Rui said.

"Brother Wang is invincible! I'm curious about this Infinite Red Port; take me on an adventure!" Wu Hen couldn't help but laugh.

Wang Rui had changed quite a bit over the past five years. Not only had he become a SuperAbnormal, but he also formed several highly powerful Super Mechanical Beasts.

These Super Mechanical Beasts supposedly had some spiritual beasts' souls injected into them, excelling in combat skills and coordination, making Wang Rui one of the top-notch Mechanical Beast Masters with just a pair of goggle-like controllers!

"Hehe, I've also been learning black technology in Infinite Red Port: a special kind of Red Sky Iron. If I can get it in full, my Mechanical Beasts won't be inferior to the Twelve Zodiac Beasts. Then I'll be a Human Hero like you!" Wang Rui said excitedly.

When he first met Wang Rui, he enjoyed tinkering with mechanical models, often dismantling household appliances for parts, using tape, plastic bottles, and cans to assemble strange toy beasts…

Who would have thought his hobbies would flourish in the field of Mechanical Beast Masterhood? It was clear that many in Silver Dome City knew Wang Rui; he was a bit of a celebrity!

"How strong are the Twelve Zodiac Beasts?" Wu Hen asked.

Wu Hen had only destroyed the entrenched forces of the Longevity Sect in Silver Dome City, not the combined human strength.

At least, Wu Hen hadn't seen the Twelve Zodiac Beasts, which had been in development for five years.

"The Twelve Zodiac Beasts are in the thin realm now, serving as the most crucial defense of Nuwa God End, activated only during external invasions… By the way, the Pure Land thin realm is now considered the New World; you can check it out. There are more normal people there, while the homeland is already a mess, thanks to the Longevity Sect and other factions." Wang Rui informed Wu Hen.

Wu Hen understood instantly.

The true human frontier had gradually shifted to reality, and naturally, it was in the Pure Land thin realm, directly facing Otherworldly Dust. In recent years, Spirit Awakeners chosen by Nuwa God End were given Desert Dust Life bodies and lived in Nuwa City built within the thin realm!
