Chapter 464: The Spiritual State and the Deserted Sea Realm

The Legend of the Sword and Fairy 3 and the Matrix, the newly-released game and movie, became the hottest topics among the customers.

To understand what AI, artificial intelligence, was, the cultivators and warriors of Yuanyang City returned to their seats. After watching the Matrix, most of them felt unsatisfied.

Subconsciously, they began to look for something with a similar theme.

Lei Ge asked, “Does anyone know if the shop has similar movies?”

With half of her time working as an employee of the shop, Li Lanruo was quite familiar with the shop’s movies and games. “From what I know, Resident Evil has a similar theme.”

“Brother Wang, should we watch the Resident Evil?” Tang Yu asked.

While some people planned to watch the Matrix again, others tried to find similar movies to watch.

After talking with some customers from the Jiuhua City Shop and Half City Shop, they began to have a general idea about the categories of the strange movies and games in the shop. The category of sci-fi included the games and movies such as ‘The Matrix’ in which people used mechanic spiritual artifacts while their own strengths were not great. The category of Xianxia included the games and movies such as the Legend of the Sword and Fairy, and Jade Dynasty. As for the category of magic fantasy, they could only experience it through the movie Harry Potter since they couldn’t meet the demons and evils in Devil May Cry 3 and Lords of Hell in Diablo 2 at the moment.

“Do you guys want to watch Resident Evil together?” Tang Yu copied the shop owner’s tone and asked, “Come on! The tour bus of Resident Evil 1 is about to embark!”

“Young Master Tang, I’ll go!”

“Count me in!”

“Me too!”

Wang Xie asked in bafflement, “Junior Brother Tang, don’t you want to play the Legend of the Sword and Fairy 3?”

“It’s not that I don’t want to play,” Tang Yu said, “I’m still waiting for the guide. Someone named New Snow in the Legend of the Sword and Fairy Forum posted a guide of the game, and I gained great progress in the game following her tips! Unfortunately, the guide stops at the Immortal Realm, and I’m waiting for her to update the guide!”

“Is she a cultivator from the Deserted Sea Realm?” Xu Chengfeng asked.

“Right,” Tang Yu said, “It’s said that the main shop is over there.”

“Young Master Tang.” Xu Chengfeng glanced around before lowering his voice. “Have you heard about the tales about the Deserted Sea Realm?”

“What tales?” Tang Yu shook his head and said, “I hadn’t heard of the Deserted Sea Realm until I came into this shop. It’s said that that place is very remote and has scarce spiritual essence, separated from us by a…um… heavenly barriers. Anyway, it’s super inconvenient to get there.”

“Deserted Sea Realm?” Lei Ge asked curiously on the side, “Isn’t it the name for the place with little spiritual essence beyond the Heavenly Abyss Sea?”

Tang Yu said, “Young Master Xu’s family is famous for having large volumes of ancient scrolls and documents. Do you have more information about this place?”

Xu Chengfeng said, “I read about it in a fragment of a scroll in my family. I don’t know if the record is true or not. Don’t you see any records about it your Tang Family?”

“Who knows?” After all, no one would have cared about the desolate deserted area before they came into the shop.

But now, Tang Yu and others’ interest was piqued since they had talked with people from the Deserted Sea Realm about the Legend of Sword and Fairy in the group chat and the guide of fighting bosses in the forum.

Xu Chengfeng said, “The record said that that place is like a huge prison, stating that it’s a place for prisoners and is thus ominous’.”

“A place for prisoners and is thus ominous?” Hearing their conversation about the Deserted Sea Realm, Wang Xie who was listening on the side looked puzzled.

“The ancient scrolls said that thousands of years ago when the strength of the heavenly barrier weakened, the Zixiao Spiritual Master had traveled there and brought back a group of cultivators from the Deserted Sea Realm…”

“Really?” Tang Yu asked, “Then, why haven’t we heard of it before?”

“I have no idea. After the Zixiao Spiritual Master passed away, no one heard of them anymore.”

Meanwhile, at the shore of Heavenly Abyss Sea, which was north to the Heavenly Academy.

It was late in the night; ocean breezes brushed over the beach, and faint sounds of rolling waves could be vaguely heard in the distance.

The people in the small town were sound asleep.

Across the ocean to the north of Heavenly Abyss Ocean was the Deserted Sea Realm.

The Deserted Sea Realm was called a sea realm since most of the place was covered by seas and oceans.

Looking into the distance from the beach, one could see nothing but dark ocean. Even moonlight and starlight were swallowed by this darkness.

In the depths of the ocean, there seemed to be an ugly fierce ghost guarding the place.

On the watch tower, the soldiers woke up from their doze and stared into the distance.

No one knew what they were watching for; they had done it since the ancient times.

…

“Yawn…!” It was late in the night. Fang Qi yawned heavily while the customers left the shop in twos and threes.

“Junior Brother Tang?” Curious, Wang Xie looked at Tang Yu who had just walked out of the shop. “How come you’re so late today?”

“Brother Wang, you’re late too.” Tang Yu chuckled.

With a scroll in his hand, Wang Xie rubbed his eyes. “I read the official novel of Diablo 2 in the shop for a whole day. I borrowed this scroll from Junior Sister Xiaoyue to read back at my place… The demonic gods in this story are unthinkable! I recommend you read it, Junior Brother Tang.”

“Well… I’m afraid that I don’t have time for it lately.” Tang Yu stretched and said, “Today, I bought the blueprint of a basic gun structure; I won’t be able to sleep well until I can figure it out.”

“Hahahaha!” Wang Xie said while laughing, “I know the Tang Family excels in machines and mechanisms. Are you… interested in guns?”

“I’m fascinated by guns after watching the Matrix,” Tang Yu said with a chuckle, “Now after watching Resident Evil, I found that these weapons are quite exquisite.”

“What do they call these weapons…” Tang Yu said, “Art! Yes! They’re called art!”

…

“Castellan Zong, you’re in a bad mood today?” Elder Yu in a grey-white robe said with a chuckle.

The tall Castellan of Yuanyang City said, “I thought there were only a few places with high-level Martial Dao in the world. However, I saw a post in the forum talking about Martial Dao which inspired me greatly!”

Elder Yu asked curiously, “Isn’t it a good thing?”

“Unfortunately, I had just joined that person’s group chat in QQ and chatted for a little while when my computer time was up…”

He stomped his foot and said, “How come I can’t chat with people freely?! There are so many restrictions!”

“It’s said the Little Princess Jiang has a communication jade which can connect with QQ…” Elder Yu said while stroking his beard.

“Tomorrow, I’ll borrow it and try logging into my QQ account,” Zong Wu complained, “How come our communication jades are so lame that they are even worse than those in the Deserted Sea Realm!”

…

“Little Xin’er, close the shop!”

“Okay! Boss!”

Fang Qi suddenly had the feeling that a pair of eyes were staring at the shop from the depths of the darkness outside. He wasn’t sure if it was an illusion.

He raised his head and looked out, but he saw nothing.
