The Hanzi (Man) quickly took out two Talismans from his In arms and ignited them with Spiritual Qi.
Two layers of barely perceptible golden light appeared, protecting him.
For a moment, the bullets that shot towards him hit this golden light, like hitting a bulletproof steel plate, erupting in dazzling sparks, and then bouncing off.
"Oh, Vajra Talisman! It seems to be a Medium Grade Qi Refinement Stage one, a bit worse than mine. You probably can't see the barrier generated by the Vajra Talisman, but you can tell from those sparks."
"But, I can see it."
An Chen narrowed his eyes, confirming that he could see that faint golden light.
"Light gold, quite pretty."
"..."
Su Xiaojiu suddenly fell silent. After three seconds, she suddenly jumped up.
"You can sense Spiritual Qi fluctuations?"
Vajra Talisman and Four Directions Formation do not emit light, but they do have some Spiritual Qi fluctuations that can be detected.
"This is impossible... Ordinary people haven't experienced Spiritual Qi and Spiritual Qi, and haven't trained their Primordial Spirit at all, so they shouldn't be able to detect Spiritual Qi fluctuations!"
"So..."
"Sure enough, you are a hidden Advanced Cultivator, right!"
Su Xiaojiu seemed to have found some crucial evidence, staring at An Chen with wide eyes.
"Am I right?! What Realm are you?! You should at least be a Spirit Nurturing Stage Cultivator, right!"
An Chen was about the same age as her, and she couldn't detect his Realm at all...
Su Xiaojiu suddenly understood why An Chen scoffed at her Cultivation Level 11 of Qi Refining Realm.
It turned out the real Genius Prodigy was here!
What was she compared to him?!
"Don't talk nonsense, I'm really not..."
An Chen was speechless.
He really couldn't keep up with Su Xiaojiu's thought process; she always said strange things.
"Could it be... you're really a Genius?"
Su Xiaojiu pouted and carefully examined An Chen.
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, are you a Cultivation Genius?"
Su Xiaojiu cupped An Chen's head, turning it back and forth, observing him repeatedly.
"Don't move around..."
An Chen, whose face was held by two hands, was startled and stepped back.
It was funny to think that in his memory, no girl his age had ever been willing to touch him like this.
"Some people just have a very strong perception of Spiritual Qi, which means their talent is very good, and their speed of absorbing Spiritual Qi and converting it into Spiritual Qi during Cultivation will be much faster."
"Generally speaking, this is a difference in Spiritual Root. Ordinary Low Grade and Medium Grade Spiritual Roots shouldn't be able to do it, so you should at least have a Superior Spiritual Root!"
"Really?"
An Chen was skeptical.
The Cultivation World has abundant Spiritual Qi, and Cultivator living on the Kyushu Continent can nurture Spiritual Roots under such conditions. According to Su Xiaojiu, the Spiritual Qi on Earth is very, very thin. Under such conditions, how can people nurture Spiritual Roots?
Besides, he had medical check-ups since he was a child, and no one was ever found to have one.
"Spiritual Root is like an organ in your body, but you can't see it. Theoretically, people in your world can also nurture Spiritual Roots, it's just that the Grade might be a bit worse. Most people might have unranked Spiritual Roots, and High Grade Spiritual Roots among the ranked ones are much rarer..."
This is why she thought An Chen might be a Genius.
In a world with such thin Spiritual Qi, what else could someone with a High Grade Spiritual Root be if not a Genius?
"..."
An Chen looked at his palm, then at Su Xiaojiu, and pouted.
Compared to the idea that he was a Genius, he was more convinced that Su Xiaojiu was just too careless.
Perhaps it was because of Earth's special environment, and the Spiritual Qi from the Kyushu Continent had a different effect when stimulated here.
The latter was clearly more convincing.
The Hanzi (Man) hid inside the barrier created by the Vajra Talisman, took out a small bottle, and poured all the Medicinal Pills in the bottle into his mouth, swallowing them all at once.
"What kind of Medicinal Pills...?"
Su Xiaojiu squinted for a while, but couldn't clearly see what the Hanzi (Man) swallowed.
After doing this, the Hanzi (Man) held his nine-ring broadsword and observed his situation back and forth.
He was really a bit panicked now.
It turned out that people in this world could also seriously injure him, or even... kill him.
"He has this defensive Vajra Talisman, why doesn't he use some offensive Talismans?"
An Chen watched the big oaf look around in his barrier, somewhat puzzled.
Since he had created a safe space, why didn't he take the opportunity to launch an attack?
The barrier created by the Vajra Talisman was very strong defensively; bullets wouldn't break it in a short time. This time was enough for the Hanzi (Man) to take down everyone in front of him.
"Looking at him, he's probably a poor guy. His weapon is on his back, and his Talismans and Medicinal Pills are in his chest. He probably can't even afford a qiankun bag. For someone like him, it's good enough to have two Vajra Talismans to save his life."
Su Xiaojiu took two sausages from the shelf behind her.
"What is this? Food?"
"Mm."
An Chen took out a small knife from the service counter and cut open the ends of the two sausages.
"Just eat it like this."
"Amazing!"
Su Xiaojiu bit off half a sausage, chewed it carefully, and then gave a thumbs up.
"It's delicious!"
She quickly devoured the remaining half of the sausage, swallowing it, and felt greatly satisfied.
"And this person should be using a Qi Refinement Stage fake Spiritual Root."
"Fake Spiritual Root?"
"Mm, a fake Spiritual Root can also be called an artificial Spiritual Root. Some people's Spiritual Roots are unranked and they can't Cultivate. They will choose to refine a Medicinal Pill called Spirit Enhancement Pill from some spiritual plants. People who take Spirit Enhancement Pill will have their Spiritual Roots grow within a few weeks, reaching a level where they can Cultivate. This is what an artificial Spiritual Root is."
"However, the quality of artificial Spiritual Roots won't be very good. For example, the one this person is using is the lowest grade Qi Refinement Stage artificial Spiritual Root. It might be difficult to advance after Cultivating to Qi Refinement Stage 10 or 11, and even reaching the Peak is very difficult. The best artificial Spiritual Roots can only allow one to Cultivate to Late Stage of Nascent Soul Stage. It's impossible to become a true powerhouse."
"Such a thing exists?!"
An Chen's eyes lit up instantly.
In his mind, a thought immediately emerged.
The news of these Transcendent from another world would eventually spread, and everyone would know that someone from the Cultivation World had Transmigrated to Earth.
If he could get his hands on the Spirit Enhancement Pill, who knows how many people would covet it.
For wealthy merchants, spending some money for a chance to become a Cultivator was no big deal.
The most basic benefit was that even in the Qi Refinement Stage, a Cultivator's lifespan could be extended by several decades.
Longevity is a common pursuit for almost everyone.
"Do you have this Spirit Enhancement Pill?"
An Chen's eyes had already turned into the shape of gold coins.
