‘But he has no ill intentions towards me, just more of a scrutinizing feel?’
‘Can’t let them follow me home, need to find a place without surveillance to deal with this gang.’ Ji Shan’s expression was sinister. He didn’t mind being followed, but if they tracked him home, he felt his old dad wouldn’t be able to handle it.
‘Damn~the “The Book of Changes” my dad has is actually real.’
‘It seems there are others monitoring me too.’

‘Spiritual Sense? What is that?’ Ji Shan was puzzled.
...
‘The Liu Family Club? Looks like it’s just these people, gangsters are everywhere.’
‘I could not have awakened some superpower… Oh, maybe it’s because of the cultivation success with “The Book of Changes”.’
‘Fierce, auspicious, human, ghost!!!’
‘This world indeed has transcendental beings, but… why is it a bit different from “The Book of Changes” my dad gave me?’ Ji Shan watched the person in front of him as the Qi mechanism inside his body refined into a strand of mana.
‘He didn’t escape, did he? This kid is like a slippery eel; even Spiritual Sense can’t detect him,’ another person said.
‘Giving you a chance but you don’t want it, thinking you’re something special just because you got into Xuan Qing Academy.’
‘Indeed, the person manual in “The Book of Changes” is the key; the heaven and earth volumes are just nourishment.’
‘Yawn~’ Ji Shan yawned, tidied up the books on the table. Today was his first week at school, trying hard to study in class, and he had to go home after classes too.
‘Also… why do I have an attribute panel? Who gave me this Golden Finger?’
‘Nice kid, you still know how to… um~’ Liu Xuan was about to make threats, but suddenly he felt like he couldn’t breathe, as if something was strangling his throat.
‘Just like heaven and earth, merely nourishment for a Qi Refiner!’
‘What is it specifically?’ Ji Shan did not reject immediately but instead asked.
‘Looks like he probably escaped, unlucky,’ said the younger Liu with a gloomy tone, and then continued, ‘The kid must have awakened by now, being able to top the province in exams; his aptitude must be extraordinary. Since he won’t be a dog for my Liu Family, we can’t let him join the officials and become an obstacle.’
‘Unfortunately, the mana is limited, can only unleash an incomplete version; still, Dark Star is effective, and it seems a bit overdrawn,’ Ji Shan felt the pain in his Primordial Spirit and was somewhat helpless.
‘Young Master Liu, the man just entered here, how did he disappear in the blink of an eye?’ a voice came.
‘Go to his house and kill him, I remember he also has a blind old dad, you guys handle it together.’
‘Are you calling me?’ Ji Shan was puzzled; he didn’t know this person.
‘You come here threatening me to join the Liu Family Club, ranting that if I don’t join, I’ll have trouble, what, are you guys a gang?’ Ji Shan immediately said loudly, and everyone in the hallway heard it, many people turned to look.
‘Dark Star, constructed from the four basic forces, and with Qi Mechanism as the lead, managed to be moved by a strand of mana; indeed, knowledge is power.’
‘Classmate, please wait a moment.’
‘Classmate, I see you haven’t joined a club yet, would you like to join the Liu Family Club?’ the man said.
‘I’ve recorded this, I’ll give it to the academy later…’ Ji Shan said expressionlessly.
‘You will know once you join, if you don’t join, you won’t be eligible to know,’ the man said mysteriously.
‘The Book of Changes’ indeed contains numerous combat skills, though he hasn’t used them, his mind remembers a lot.
As well as studying for exams and so on, in short, consistently enriching himself.
However, he also forced himself to attend and listen to classes; the daily schedule was packed, and besides that, there was also extracurricular learning and so forth.
Upon arrival, he pushed the door and entered, but it was not the scene he had imagined, only an old man in a security guard uniform was present.
After shaking off his pursuer, Ji Shan then started to contemplate one thing, which was why the other party was pestering him.
The guy seemed a bit thin but surprisingly agile, immediately grabbing his shoulder as soon as he approached.
Then suddenly, all kinds of chaotic lines started flickering before his eyes.
He even made him lose face in this public scenario, how could he let it slide.
Walking out slowly, that Unity of Heaven and Man feeling intoxicated Ji Shan deeply, mana moving as his heart willed, thousands of Qi mechanisms exploding out.
On the way back, he always felt as if someone was spying on him through surveillance cameras within the cameras, a feeling that had persisted for three days. At first, he thought it was just his paranoia, but whenever he left the academy, the feeling gradually subsided, until he reached his dilapidated rented house, where it finally disappeared completely.
Ji Shan’s face darkened. What kind of people were these, trying to kill him when they couldn’t recruit him?
After Ji Shan said this slowly, the figures of the people not far from him began to blur, their clothing melding into lines along with them.
Ji Shan frowned and then said, “Oh, then I won’t join.”
Ji Shan could feel his soul rising to form a higher dimensional vision. Surrounding him, the myriad Qi mechanisms could be controlled by his mana, creating bizarre effects.
Ji Shan knew that even if he asked, he wouldn’t get any answers, so he had to leave first.
Hurriedly leaving the school, he noticed someone was following him, and with malicious intent at that.
After briefly explaining the situation, the old man replied distractedly, “I know. I’ll report this and let them handle it later.”
After backing up the recording, he went to deliver a copy to the academy’s security department.
The old man didn’t say who they were, and Ji Shan didn’t ask.
Inside, there was more than just astronomy and geography; there were also various profound spells, combat techniques, and so on.
Liu Xuan’s tone was full of jealousy. He had personally come to recruit, yet the other party dared to refuse, showing no sense of hierarchy in his eyes.
After packing his things, Ji Shan left the classroom and was about to go down the stairs when he heard someone calling him.
Although it seemed like just for show, it was still functional.
Although he felt a great burden on his body, his spirit seemed to have been enlightened, continually expanding, and even his five senses became incredibly sharp, even developing something akin to a sixth sense.
He did not live in the dormitory but stayed in a rented house outside with Qin Muye. Lately, for some reason, he felt easily fatigued, as if his body was bearing some great burden.
Without showing any sign, he deviated from his original path and quickly arrived at a nearly abandoned old street, where he then cautiously hid.
He still had ambitions to climb higher and couldn’t just graduate simply.
That he could do this was already quite remarkable, considering it was his first attempt.
He refined everything in the world into Qi mechanisms to nourish his own mana, forming his Primordial Spirit, while the other… heh, used a crude method and outdated assimilation techniques.
Through this special vision, he could also see the Spiritual Power flowing inside the bodies of Liu Xuan and the others in the distance. It was a system completely different from his; he wielded mana, while the others wielded Spiritual Power.
He also came to understand one thing: the world had not only good people, but also bad ones, those with power who would kill at the slightest disagreement.
Subconsciously, he used the method of concealment from “The Book of Changes”, making his Qi gradually stabilize, making him seem akin to vegetation.
Clearly, he had been targeted the moment he left the school gate, the other party had certainly come prepared.
It was the same now.
In his eyes, the ordinary world revealed countless Qi mechanisms, these intertwined and roamed, forming a vast world.
Under the instruction of Qin Muye, his mischievousness had increased.
They were treating him like a fool, expecting him to join without any explanation, as if it might be some illegal organization.
This made Liu Xuan and the others suddenly feel a chill, and then they spotted Ji Shan in the distance.
This caused the man from the Liu family to stiffen, immediately wanting to snatch something, but Ji Shan turned and ran.
This caused the man from the Liu family to darken, “Very well, I invited you out of respect, but since you refuse the toast only to drink the forfeit, just you wait, this isn’t over.”
This was an opportunity to see who was spying on him so persistently.
Obviously, there was a problem, and then he glances discreetly at the monitoring system. Since the person had contacted him, the sense of surveillance had intensified, indicating there were more watchers.
In that moment, in his eyes, this group of people was full of weaknesses.
This feeling made him uncomfortable, yet he didn’t dare to tell Qin Muye, afraid of worrying him.
All of the surveillance of Xuanqing Academy was managed within the security department.
The man’s eyes flashed with a glint of cold light: “You’d better think carefully before you speak, otherwise life here might not be so easy for you.”
As for the so-called Liu family club, he didn’t take them seriously. If they were that powerful, why would they hide and skulk about?
In the end, amidst distortion, they were completely obliterated, leaving not even a trace, sparing him the effort of hiding the evidence.
