Global Dungeon: I Can See the Status Bar

The old man eating noodles in the distance fell silent immediately, quietly shrinking back into the crowd.

This child... although kind-hearted and simple-minded, there is still a bit of...

Uh...

Forget it, after all, the child means well, it’s somewhat inappropriate to insult people behind their back...

If this method truly worked, the Immortal Dao Alliance would have long established a large array to gather the mortals.

This would be much more cost-effective than migrating inland with the Teleportation Array.

While the old man was speechless inside, Duan Chaolong was already furious beyond measure, raining down two sharp slaps on Liu Erniu, his eyes seemingly ablaze.

”Rebellious disciple!”

”Rebellious disciple!”

”Are you truly going to infuriate me to death!”

”Without our sect’s ancestral Spirit Vein, and the techniques passed down from our ancestors, we would have long been devoured into nothing like those Nascent Soul True Monarchs by the black mist!”

”And you think you can save people!?”

”Do you have that ability!”

”You’re truly beyond foolish!”

”Beyond foolish!!!”

”How did I end up with such an idiot as a disciple! Fool!”

At this moment, having fled for two days and nights in fear, Duan Chaolong finally broke down.

Usually, he could let his silly disciple show some kindness, at most he’d exert more effort, and it would be nice to help and make good connections.

But have you realized what time it is now, and you’re still going crazy here!?

Do you wish for us to die faster!

I brought you from the Celestial Secret City to the south, and then ran with you all the way back from the Southernmost Islands, was it easy for me!

And now look, you come up with this scene?

The old man who had earlier talked with Liu Erniu couldn’t bear it any longer, and couldn’t help but say, ”Young man, follow your master. You are a cultivator who can achieve longevity and vision, your life is just beginning, why accompany us old ones who are half buried in the earth?”

”That’s right, little Immortal Master, follow your master, you cannot save us.”

”We’ve had enough good days. In these few months, this old man lived quite comfortably, haha...”

”No need, child, quickly leave.”

”...”

The onlookers, old men and women, also chimed in with their advice.

”The Spirit Vein Dragon can resist the erosion of the black mist, but now the Spirit Veins at the edges of the Cultivation Realm are gone, doesn’t that imply these mortals have been abandoned? Master, we have the ability to save them!”

Liu Erniu remained as stubborn as before, not loosening even after a harsh lesson, his eyes intensely fixed on his master who was raging before him.

”You said it yourself, no one else in the Cultivation Realm can move Spirit Veins except for our Wood and Earth Temple and the Dragon Race in the sea. So why couldn’t it be the Dragon Emperor who has moved these Spirit Veins?”

”You fool, I’ll beat you, rebellious disciple!”

Overwhelmed, Duan Chaolong gathered his Spiritual Power and delivered a kick, sending Liu Erniu flying five or six meters away in a fit of rage.

”I know Spirit Veins can resist the black mist, how could the Dragon Emperor not know? Do you know why we can stand here today? It’s because all the great cultivators across the land are in the Far North resisting the True Demons, that we managed to barely escape alive! You think you’re the only smart one?”

”Immortal Master, Immortal Master, please don’t be angry, let me try to talk to this young Immortal Master.”

The old man in a brocade robe approached with a wry smile, speaking a few words to temporarily calm the anxious and angry Duan Chaolong, then turned to look at Liu Erniu, who was slowly climbing up from the ground, and offered him assistance.

”Young man, from what I understand, our world now is like a big ship sailing on the sea. The bottom of the ship is leaking, and to prevent it from sinking, we must use wood from other parts for repair.”

”There is an old saying in the mortal world—give up land to save people, and both land and people are lost. Save people and give up land, and both land and people are saved! This Spirit Vein is like the ’land’, a depth that can be strategically abandoned.”

”The Dragon Emperor you speak of, if he didn’t draw Spirit Veins from elsewhere to eliminate the source, how could our world talk about ’saving both people and land’? If he wanted to abandon us, why would the imperial court and the Immortal Dao Alliance expend great effort to transfer us?”

The old man’s words left Liu Erniu completely stunned.

The stubbornness in his eyes turned to confusion, the determination on his face replaced by bewilderment.

Clutching his Magic Sword tightly, he murmured, ”I... I just want to do something within my power... I just want... to let everyone survive...”

The old man patted his shoulder, ”According to your master, the Dragon Emperor you mentioned is now leading the cultivators of the world in the Far North to resist the True Demon invasion, it’s a time that needs support and supplies.”

”If you have a true heart to save the world, why not go to the Far North to lend a hand? Every additional person brings more hope for victory. If you can nip the source in the bud before the black mist arrives, many old folks like us at the world’s edge will remember your good deeds!”

”When one is poor, they should cultivate their own virtue; when one prospers, they should help the world.”

”Amidst the villagers’ struggles, save one person from drowning, hahaha...”

”You!”

Duan Chaolong’s eyes were wide with rage, ready to draw his sword to kill the old man.

Damn old man has bad intentions!

How dare he undermine my disciple’s Dao Heart!

But by this time, being helplessly furious was too late, Liu Erniu’s once confused gaze was now brightening, as if he had found his Light.

Almost in an instant, the countless Spiritual Power accumulated within him was aroused by this enlightening thought, breaking through four realms in the blink of an eye, his whole body’s Spiritual Pressure soared, entering Qi Refining Great Perfection right then and there!

Duan Chaolong stood dumbfounded, watching everything unfold before him.
